THE LAST SPIKE.
Will BE Driven On Wdstern Pacific
Next Week.

For some time it has been pretty
well known that there would be no
ceremonies attending the driving of
the last spike on the Western Pacific
and no definite information has been
obtainable as to the exact date on
which the last rail would be laid
The higher officials themselves do no
or will not tell as Virgil G. Bogue, tn
chief engineer of the road expressed
himself evasive,y and somewhat
bluntly on this matter in an interview
published in San Francisco few day
ago. saying:
The celebration at the driving Of
the last spike on the Western Pacific
will indeed be impressive. 1t will con-
t'st OF some section crew man taking
up, item, hammer, and driving, item
perfectly good steel spike. Three or
four days later he may possibly learn
that 1t is he who has driven the last
spike"

NEWLANDs' LETTER.
Western Senators Receive One From
Nevada's Statesman.

Senator Newlands has addressed a
letter to the senator's from the arid
and semi arid states calling their
attention to the waterway movements
for the development of navigation
which Is to be emphasized by the
presence of the president of the deep
waterway convention at New Orleans
today, and to the Importance of the
senator's and representatives from the
arid and semi-arid states comforting
together in the interest of their re-
gion. He calls attention to the i'm
portance and comprehensive plans
that will cover the contemporaneous
development of the rivers in every
section Of the country, and particular
" In the arid region, where the stor-
age of flood waters can be made use
ful both for irrigation and nayiga-
ton In the maintenance of q stead
Ter stream flow
He urges the creation of a water
way fund Of $5O, 900 annually and
shows that Of this amount the head
waters OF the navigable rivers in the
arid region should receive about So
100000 annually, which, in addition
TO the reclamation fund, will take
care of unfinished as well as contem-
plated irrigation projects.
This movement contemplates con-
ference of senator's and representa-
tlyes from about fifteen states west

the next session of congress, with
view to making the arid region q

not been offering copper through

Tor some weeks the Guggenheims
have been scolded by the copper
trade in general for the policy which
they were following In forcing copper

LOSES HOME
BUILDING AND CONTENTS BURNED
Origin of Fire Unkn0wn--L0s VIII
Aggregate $1,000 with but
Snail Insurance.

Sunday morning about 80, the
citizens Of Hood River were awakened
from their peaceful slumbers by the
ringing of the fire bell, and on look
ing out the sky was lit up by bright
tire. 1t proved to Ee G. q. Newman q
I nice new home ON the hill. As the
fre was not discovered until the roof
was about TO drop in, the fire depart
ment did not take the engine to the
scene.
Mr.. and Mrs. Newman we're at Mo.
sier attending a dance, where Mr..
Newman was engaged to play. They
knew nothing about the fire until
they phoned Sunday morning.
Attorney Hartwig was up during
the night on account of sickness, as
we'll as MIR. Sherman, and they dis
covered the hre and together with
Messrs. Bailey and HARRISON, broke
into the house and searched for the
Newman's, not knowing that they
we're away. Not finding them In the
bedrooms, they then tried to remove
the piano but found that the root
began to tumble in and grabbing
couple of chairs they got out just In
time, altho Mr.. Hartwig was slightly
burned and also the others. The two
chairs that were rescued were also
badly burned. Nothing else was
saved, and all the clothing left MIR.
and Mrs. Newman we're those they
wore to Mosier.
The fire seemed to have started
from the east side of the building
and roof, and when discovered the
east side was we'll under way, and
was no doubt caused by live wires, as
the wiring came In from that side.
There had been no fire In the stove
for over twelve hours, and then only
enough to get some light lunch, az ON
Saturday Mr.. Newman, who runs q
four chair barber shop, takes his
meals down town. There were the
usual box OF matches, that every fam
lily has kept in the cupboard. and the
mice might have got into the box,
which Is hardly possible. The only
satisfactory conclusion is that it was
caused by the wiring for lights, which
was wired two years ago.
Ihe idea that some one set the fire
Is hardly probable as Mr.. and Mrs.
Newman are among Hood Rivers
highly respected citizens. And 1t 10
doubtful II they have an enemy In
the valley. Their friends and neigh.
bors came to their aid by offers of
assistance, but they have rented Mr..
Hadley's house for the summer and
will remain there until Mr.. Newman
decides about rebuilding sgain.
The loss was 10 the neighborhood
of ~, 200, with small amount OF insur-
anoe. The house cost about 81. 900 TO
build two years ago and with the
piano, music, furniture, clothing,
ETC., the sum will easily reach $1,000.
Their home was very nicely fur
nished and there are things In home
like that that no money could buy or
replace.
