AN UNSAFE SAFE EXPERT.-A
quarter of a century ago, the bust
ness-centers of the East were as
founded over the wonderful skill man.
ifested by an expert who could un-
lock any safe by short manipulation
of the combination lock. On a bet
in one of the large cities he opened
a score of strong-boxes OF the best
make, within q few hours, and made
enough money to lay off from hard
work year or two. He claimed he
both heard and felt the movement of
the pawls on the stem. A young
lady in Portland, Miss Stella Darl-
ing, does all this in as expeditions
and apparently as simple manner
and it is claimed that she has yet to
meet with a task that she could not
accomplish. This simple explana-
ton is what all such experts are
said to claim for the mystery.

AN IMPUDENT RooMER.-Landladies
have troubles of their own as well as
other people. One ofthe sisterhood
in Olympia experiences some trouble
at times in collecting the room-rent
due her. Not long ago young lady
roomer was considerably behind in
her rent. The proprietress retained
her trunk and contents as security.
n short time thereafter the girl re-
turned with tears in her eyes, saying
her clothing was in the trunk and
she didn't know what she was going
to do unless she could get her cloth
ing, saying just as soon as she could
get o job which was promised she
would pay up. She obtained her sit
uation. After a few weeks the land
lady. went to see this girl and re-
quested payment, but was politely
informed that she, the landlady,
when she had possession OF the trunk
and contents ought not to have re-
leased same till she had received her
money.

The account says that at Pacific the

side of the bluff. Right there is

across the head and with a body big
as a stove-pipe, which hastily crawled
into hole in the bluff, evidently as
much perturbed as the women. They
have since then seen the snake again,
and are frightened almost out OF
their wits. A snake hunting expedi-
ton has been organized by the citi-
zens of Pacific, who propose to use
dynamite to dislodge the serpent
from his hole in the bluff.

ONE of the most just and popular
orders ever issued by Government
officials has resulted in the reduction
of the sleeping-car rates on the Pull
man railroad mainline cars, SO far as
it refers. at least, to the berths.
The rates have hitherto been 81 or 81
a digit, and no difference in the rate
for upper" or lower" on the same
car, Notwithstanding the latter is
much more cramped, difficult Of ac
cess, and dangerous than the lower
berth, besides not being so well ven
tilated. When the lowers" have
been grabbed by the first who come,
it is not fair that they should pay
only the price that is charged for the
little shelf in the Sky-parlor that is
worth the cost in severe labor of get
ting in and out, and disrobing and
completing toilet with only bullying
curtain for securing privacy. Some
plan for obviating this difficulty
would have been discovered long ago,
were it not that those riding on
"dead-head tickets are always ac-
corded reserved lowers By telegraph
if necessary, to ensure them against
this annoyance.

A Prehistoric Race.

\ find at Boise, Idaho, seems to
indicate race of giants many years
ago inhabited this part of the world.
Unmoved, unseen and untouched for
hundreds of years and hidden in the
rccesscs Of a deep cave twenty-five
miles north of Shoshone, Lincoln
County, in southern Idaho, is the
skeleton uf Il giant ten feet tall,
evidently Of prehistoric origin. 1t
was recently discovered by a hunting
party from Boise City. As corroborat-
i've proof the members are now exhib-
iting the rusty and time worn barrel
of what appears to be an ancient gun
weighing between twenty-five and
thirty pounds. resembling a flint-lock
rifle. This they say was picked up
beside the skeleton. The skull of this
giant is twice as large as that of the
average man to-day. The large limb
bones indicate he must have been a
man of great physical power. The
skeleton is well preserved and was
found upon the surface of the ground
far back in the chambers of the cave,
stretched out at full length Close
by was the barrel of the rusty rifle,
which is of peculiar make unknown
to those familiar with firearms. NJ
reasonable theory can be advanced
by the discoveries as to how the
skeleton happened to be in the cave.
Those who have looked into the facts
believe the skeleton represents one
of the lost races unknown to men of
this day, which occupied the Ameri-
can continent long before the red
skins came. Biologists say the Yves
tern country was the scene of a great
volcanic disturbance at one time,
and great streams of lava OverfOwed

forming caves and great natural
basins. 1t is possible that this one
representative uf lost race was
caught by the flows and sealed up in
the cave in which he was found.
There are numerous extinct volcanoes
in this section of the State and par
ticularly where the gigantic skeleton
was found. The older Indians say
their father told them about the
mountains which were afire and OF
the continual underground rumb-
lings. Among the leaves" as these
regions are called. are to be found
many assures that seem to be con-
nected with large cave formed when
the lava was cooling, and at times
the suction is so great at the mouth
of the cave as to cause the fame of
q candle to be eXtinguished.

against the imperfect work in the

fairly raving over the work that has

and it is said that 500 volunteers

and occupations. street booths were
erected and desks were placed in the
department stores with clerks to
register names. Everybody was

sula, extending into the gulf, and
among the valuables swept into the
ocean depths was a safe containing
$4,000 worth of jewelry. During
the past So years it has been given
up as lost to the world, but long and
patient search of Frank Bauer has at
last been rewarded and the safe ex-
humed from the mud. The valu.

the fact that the possibility. named

SEATTLE, Tacoma and Portland all

after casting up the returns of the

that in their boosting endeavors they
have Joasted of unwarranted popula-

were true. and it is difficult to accept
official returns. There is this salts
faction, however, in the fact that the
complaint seems general, and an
even-up may result in a fair general
average.
