TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO

The tax list in Mile Laos county
was small this year and, with north
and south railroad, twill be smaller
next year. But we haven't got the
railroad yet.

Last Friday Miss Minnie Sinclair
finished four months term of teach

The people up there say she has given
the best satisfaction of any teacher
they ever had in that district.
= 1t it comes to question of bonding
the county in order to secure a rail-
road then the road is assured beyond
peradventure of doubt. We do not
believe there are so people in Mile
Laos county who would vote against
the bonds.
Editorial-A north and south rail-
road through the whole length of
Mile Laos county would add 100 per
cent to the valuation and 300 per cent
to the population of the county inside
OF one year from the time of the CON-
pletion of said road.
The surveying crew from the south
is in charge of J. G. Patterson, with
c. A. DeBrisay and 81. Waag as
assistants. The party from the north
is in charge of Samuel Rockwell, with
S. J. Norvell and Ed. Wardwell as
assistants. They are all jolly good
fellows and thorough gentlemen.

NITRO TARGET KILLS ONE,
Another Hunter Will Die Because OF
Fatal Mistake

Muskogee, Okla.-Ciarence Hender-
son, bookkeeper in a bank at Beggs
Okla, is dead and Edward Bright,
son Of real estate man Of the same
place, will die as the result of mis-
taking a quart can Of nitro-glycerine
for muddy water.
Henderson was so badly mangled
by the explosion that he died within
an hour. Bright's body was cut in
more than 100 places by particles OF
the can and the rock on which II
stood. He crawled to a farmhouse a
mile and half away and told of the
accident.
A physician picked 35 pieces of tin
from his body and located 65 more
which was too deeply imbedded to be
reached. There is no hope for his re-
covery.
The accident occurred in the oil
fields, and the nitroglycerine had been
hidden by well-shooters when they
quit work last night.

follow, till all are assembled. Torches
are quickly lighted, and the band
separates, a blaze of fire following
each one as he wields the flaming
brand. simultaneously the Greek
army rushes into the city through the
dismantled wall.
The eyes of the awakening Trojans
open upon most terrifying spectacle.
Surprised and scattered, they are
met on all sides by fiery flame and
relentless sword. The rout is com.
plete. Though fighting valiantly.
they are no match for the Greeks,
and many flee ANONYMOUSLY to save
their lives.
The consuming flames burn fierce
ly, mounting higher anr higher, cast
ing lurid glare upon the awful scene
OF carnage. In the palace Helen
clings tremblingly to Paris, who seeks
in vain for means of egress. The
royal guards. making last stand in
the reception chamber, are ruthlessly
cut down.
The intense heat disintegrates the
stone buildings, and they crumble to
the earth. Immense columns sway
majestically and come crashing down.
Grouping and stumbling through the
smoke-filled corridors, Paris, sup
porting Helen, makes his way to the
ground floor, and instantly a hun
dred swords seek his heart. Menelaus
utters shary command, staying
every hand, and himself engages
Paris. The duel is spectacular. the
men moving with nghtning-like rap
idity, their short, heavy swords fall
ing in quick succession on each 9TH
er's shields. At last Paris falls, and
with a beseeching cry Helen, the
faithless, leaps to her husbands
arms. Disdainfully he thrusts her
from him, and the picture ends with
Helen weeping at the side of her slain
lover, while Menelaus gazes upon her
contemptuously.

BRIDGE STEEL ARRIVES.
Work on Crooked River Structure

Bend, Or.ETwo items Of great To-
cal interest have been brought to
Bend from Opal City, the present end
of service of the Oregon Trunk rail-
road. The first is that II cars of
steel for the Crooked River bridge,
the big eng neering feat that has been
delaying the arrival of the railroad at
Bend have put in an appearance, and
together with several crews of work.
ers and many cars of construction
material are now on the ground. The
second item of opal City news of i'm
port to the interior, and especially to
this place, Is that the first shipment
of goods from Portland to the Burns
country in the southeastern part of
the state, has arrived over the Ore
gon Trunk railway.
Hitherto all freight from Portland
to and from the Harney country has
been carried by the somewhat round
about route up the Columbia and the
Snake river valleys. With the COM
pletion of the new Hill Central Oregon
road, however, it is expected that the
great majority of this tonnage will
be carried from Portland over the
oregon Trunk to Bend. and thence
over the newly completed Bend Burns
road to the Harvey country. The ini-
tial shipment in question, which is
one of several tons of merchandise

business at the Opal City end of the

1t Is expected that the erection of
the Crooked River bridge will occupy
from 60 to 80 days. This figure,
however, is at best a matter of con-
lecture, as the speediness of the COM
pletion of the enterprise depends en-
tirely upon whether or not the re-
malnder of the material required in
the construction gets upon the ground
quickly. 1t Is estimated that a very
few weeks will be required to COM

falling a victim to Helen's dazzling
charms, devotes his time to impas-
stoned wooing, in which he is assisted
by the goddess Venus. A remark
able disappearing vision scene is
shown as Venus throws her filmy
mantle over the couple, who are
waited through the air in a big shell
by the attendants of Venus, the wing
ed nymphs guiding the aerial craft
to Troy.
The flight of Helen is reported to
Menelaus by servant at the palace,
who iashes the horses drawing his
chariot into frightful speed to reach
his master The grief and rage of
Menelaus knows no bounds. and he
hastily marshals his army and re-
ceives the pledge of his mobiles to fight
to the death. An immediate march
Is ordered to the city of Troy.
Helen is being entertained in the
palace of Troy by Paris, who has law
ished her with attention and sur
rounded her by retinue of beautiful
women and singing and dancing girls.
A soldier dashes up with the news Of
the attacking forces. The Trojan SOL
diers advance to meet the Greeks, but
are driven back behind the walls of
Troy-a thrilling scene in which 1000
fighting men are seen.
The Greeks battle with indomitable
fury. Charge after charge is made
on the sturdy walls, in the face of
an avalanche of huge missils thrown
into their midst by the Trojans. Fin
ally Menelaus, realizing the futility Of
attempting to storm the massive
mounds of stone, plans a ruse. A gi-
ant horse is built of wood, inside of
which are concealed score of Greek
soldiers. This is left outside the
town. and Menelaus withdraws his
army.
AS the last of the departing Greeks
Is lost to view, the Trojans venture
forth and gaze curiously upon the
strange equine. With exultant shouts
they take possession, and drag it to
the city. To permit its entrance
through the gates it is necessary to
tear down a portion of the wall. Gen.
eral rejoicing at the lifting Of the
siege takes place, and the horse is re-
garded as a trophy Of war.
Wearied with the conflict Of many
days, the town, secure in the depar-
ture of its enemies, is wrapped in the
arms Of Morpheus. Night has cast its
darkening mantle upon the earth,
through which the moonbeams strug-
gle and weirdly cast their rays upon
the gorgeous splendor of Troy The
city sleeps, unmindful that the Greeks
are rushing back with murderous hate
in their hearts.
Suddenly a trap door in the wooden
horse opens, and Greek drops to
the ground. Another and another

THE STORY OF
"THE FALL OF TROY

Menelaus, King Of Sparta, going to
join his soldiers, bids an affectionate
goodbye to his wife, Helen, the most
beautiful of Greek women. The part

palace, the imposing structure, with
its massive columns and marble stairs,
lending a background to a scene Of
wondrous beauty. with gushing foun-
tains, lovely flowers, strutting pea
cocks and flittering birds. Menelaus
leaps into his chariot, and is seen
galloping away through picturesque
scenery.
