way Ia this country as they were en-
gagged. To get her here he signed an
affidavit that he would support her.

Cascade. Dec. 2s.-Considerable
mystery is attached to the destruc-
ton OF the big butte or bluff known
to everyone in this community as
First Bluff. The bulk Of the bluff
has entirely disappeared from the
face OF the earth. Just how this
came about is puzZling to the citi-
zens. many OF whom have gone to
visit the scene where the former
majestic pile stood. Many have con.
ceived the Idea that IL was the work
of the recent earthquake, others
contend that the destruction took
place during the recent thunder
storm. while others say that it was
the work of dynamite. The huge pile
that once stood nearly a hundred
feet high lies crumpled and scattered
along the bank of the river. One
large section rolled in.o the stream
