and attached to the front of it, at
the bottom, is little platform for
the puppet to stand or dance on. The
movement of the marionette's arms
and legs are controlled by strings
which pass through slots in the top

Dream of Death Fulfilled.

To dream of an accident three times
and then witness It's fulflment has
been the unhappy experience just re-
corded of Hobart (Tasmania) man.
A laborer employed by the Hobart
city corporation was turning the hand
winch of crane. The jlb of the crane
swung around and wire rope came
into contact with the high tension cleo
tric wires overhead. The result was
that the laborer was electrocuted. A
week before the accident one of the
mans workmates was uneasy In his
mind. He was troubled by strange
dream that was repeated three times.
In his dream he saw fatal accident
at the crane. 1t occurred In exactly
the same way as that which caused
the actual accident. He told his mates
OF the dream, which had made such a
deep impression upon him, and II was
the subject OF considerable discussion
The fulfillment of the dream came as
a shock TO those who had been made
with the story.

RAILROAD HAS WATER WAGON
fully in Minimizing the Discom-
forts of Dusty Tracks.

An appliance for sprinkling the
right-of-way over the dusty stretches
of track has been invented by w. H.
Whalen, superintendent Los Angeles
division, and is being tried out with
apparent success by the Southern Pa
citic on It's lines between Indlo and
Palm Springs, heretofore very dusty
section of track. According to the Lit
erary Digest, writer in the Southern
Pacific Bulletin (San Francisco says:
"The sprinkler consists of a perfor-
ated pipe attached beneath the water
tender of the locomotive in such way
that water is sprinkled> on the track
as the train passes over 1t. According
to Mr.. Whalen the experiments have
proved very satisfactory, and South
ern Pacific is planning the installation
OF these sprlnklers on all its passenger
locomotives operating In desert coun.
try. The scheme is an innovation in
railroad operation. The Southern Pa
cific has made various attempts to
allay dust by sprinkling oil over its
right of way In desert country. but
none of them has proved as effective

nine cars of lettuce and eleven of ap-
pies shipped from this point. The
past week eight cars of appels were
shipped by Tuesday, after which no
cars were available. Eleven cars OF
lettuce went out of Fruitland the
past wetk, the railroad giving pre-
ference to the shipment of lettuce
because of it being more perishable.
Lettuce is bringing a good price in

Manned but Good swimmers.

Swimming ns quite easy, and is
even beneficial for these men who
have lost a limb, especially in salt
water, which seems to benefit the
manned limb. At swimming match
organized at Brighton for so-called
disabled men, 18 competitors entered
the water. Ten Of these had lost one
leg, three were minus an arm, and the
remaining three had no legs at all.
The course was from the Palace pier
to the West pier, and Is of the 1855
competitors covered the whole dis
tance, roughly three-Quarters Of a
mile. The one who failed had to leave
the water halfway owing to cramps in
the stump.
ut was perhaps the most remarkable
swim that has ever taken place in
history" comments the author Of "The
Handbook for the Limbless," from
which the above facts are taken.

brains of the Portland leaders who
are giving their time and attention
to the promotion of the Yakima
railroad. Can they not see that it
would be far better for them to pro-
mote the construction of railroad
through Central Oregon from which
Portland would secure practically all
the business and benefits to be de-
rived, than to spend an equal sum
for just a part of the business of the
Yakima valley, great as that is al
ready?
We do not blame Portland for be-
ing jealous of Seattle. 1t ought to
be; for Seattle has the constructive
spirit. With many disadvantages
the people of Seattle have gone
ahead and built city while Port
land has been asleep to the possibil-
tiles which lie at her door.
Portland should awake to the
realization that by the construction
of road through Central Oregon
she will not only get the business of
that big plateau, but she will be
Idaho irrigation region which itself
is larger than the Yakima valley and
as highly productive. With a water
grade from Ontario to Crane, and no
SUBMITS to cross from Crane to
Bend, a road through Central Ore
gon would make possible the ship
ment of large portion of the
freight of this region to the Colum-
bia river.
II for no other reason than that
OF good taste, the people of Port
land should manifest at least as
great interest in getting a railroad
across Central Oregon as they do to-
ward building a line in Washington.
1t certainly does Portland no good to
have the people of Eastern and Cen
tral Oregon of the opinion that
Portland is not interested in their
welfare. Yet this is what they do
believe.
1t is true that Portland is backing
the colonization development pro-
gram which is indeed a worthy eff
fort and is appreciated; but how
San that succeed without the rail-
road? If Portland is big enough to
secure the construction of the Yaki-
ma road and the Central Oregon
road too, well and good. Then we
would withdraw our objections to

It has often been matter Of specula-
don as to when, If any time, man
would feel perfectly at ease carrying

PORTLAND TRUE TO FORM

Portland is playing true to form.
1t is now engaged in an effort to Sc
cure portion of the business of the
Yakima valley developed by the
united energies of the business men
of Washington. Portland's covetous
eyes have long been turned toward
it's neighbor's fields waiting for the
fruit to ripen there that it might
door lies field now uncultivatetd,
largely due to Portland's lack Of
spirit and energy or desire to culti-
vate the field itself.
The effort to raise seven million
dollars for the construction of
line to connect Portland with Yak
ina is typical of Portland. The city
on the Willamette has ever believed
that Washington is better than Ore
gon and its business more desirable.
Portland has never been able to see
Central and Eastern Oregon.
To fight Seattle and Tacoma's
natural advantage in being located
on deep bays, Portland has for years
made one fight, to get the bottom of
the Columbia farther from the top,
and in this she has succeeded. Mean
while Washington and Idaho have
concentrated their efforts in develop
ing their back country through sys-
tematic raids made on the reclama-
tion funds. While they were thus
engaged Oregon's representatives
with their heart bent on appropri-
ations for the Columbia permitted
Oregon to be robbed of its just share
Of the reclamation funds, permitted
section nine of the original reclama-
tion act to be eliminated, thus allow
ing Oregon money to be used to de-
velope its rivals,
We wonder at the workings of the
