ROBERT RAND TELLS
OF SOUTHERN FREEZE

The following letter was received
the latter part of last week from Rob-
ert Rand who is visiting at Long
Beach, Calf., by o. p. Dabney and
tells of the recent severe freeze in the
south:
"lts very interesting and sounds
good, to read and hear of the glories of
CALIFORNIA; s warm climate. 1t sounds
good abroad, but to realize the truth
and facts-last Thursday the wind
from the north brought down tons Of
dust, the worst | ever saw. II filled
our mouth, ears, whiskeTs and clothing.
On Friday it was cold in the morning.
| wrote my name in the frost, and it
was cold Saturday morning. Ice was
one inch thick. A the rooming houses
are without gas. They use gas for all
purposes here. 1t is furnished from
Los Angeles. The cold weather has
made the demand more than the supply
and the result is that hundreds have
the grip, myself with the rest. As to
the flowers, cannot say they are
handsome. In fact, they look sick and
all they have of them and their beaut-
les are on the postal cards, of which
the town is full and selling to tourists
to send to their friends, showing what
a paradise it is.
IL have seen nothing to induce me
to change my home from Hood River,
with all its rain, although it's well to
get away from home to appreciate
home and its surroundings When |
first came | thought the palms were
fine, but now, since they are crusted
with dust, have changed my mind.
Give me the fir, pine and oak. Evel
poison aok looks good to me. "

First transaction with a pawn shop
by parcel post was recorded last week
in the archives of the city detective
bureau of Portland says the Oregon
ian. 1t was a camera sent by woman
in Newberg, Ore, to Sixth street
money lending establishment.
Use of the parcel post as a means of
hypothecating articles of merchandise
probably was not contemplated by con-
gress when it enacted the measure,
but, now that some original genius has
set the pace, there seems to be no good
reason why the money lenders should
not do thriving business with the
outlying places which know not the
sign of the three gilded balls.
The pawning of the camera duly ap-
peared on Detective La Salle's reports,
with a notation that the article had
been sent in by mail. Scenting pos
sible attempt to evade the scrutiny of
the pawnshop squad. Detective Smith
made inquiries and discovered that the
was in good faith. Five
dollars was advanced on the pledge.

Timothy Georges place near town
was lively last week with special serv-
ices for the relief of an Indian boy
who had the st. Vitus dance. Three or
four indians of note from other places
were in attendance. There is little
probability that the disease devils were
chased out of the lad by the method Of
dancing and singing around the boy
which the medicine men" pursued.
C. d. Moore reports that the con-
tractors who are making the fill of a
trestle to the east of Bingen, have IN
earthed skulls and other bones Of two

sand with a steam shovel on the i'm
mense sand pile on his farm. Mr..
Moore has unearthed bones before, and
the railway builders frequently ran
across bones when building the North
Bank road. Arrow heads and other
crude things of use to Indians have
been thrown out or picked up along the

OLD COINS AND BONES FOUND

Within the last few years parts Of
human skeletons and old coins have
been washed out on the beach at
Spermacete cave near the old High.

come from Skeleton hill. The winds
and tides acting on the base Of the
hill cause the land at tho top to slide
down to tho beach. thus unearthing
the bones and other relics.
Although many stories are told Of
how the bodies came to be there, the
ono receiving the most credence u
that the men were part Of the expedi.
ton sent out by France to avengs the
capture Of Louisburg by tho colonists
and English troops. This expedition
left France In l74s. During the voy.
age several Of the warships carrying
the troops were wrecked. Later Z
pestilence broke out among the crew.

in command. in despair. committed
suicide. as did his successor.
It was planned to attack the colon.
lists In Massachusetts, and then to
devastate all the settlements as far
as Georgia. Most of the coins found
were dated about the time this expe.
dition started. 1t is generally thought
that the bodies found were those who
died from the plague and were buried
by their shipmates.
