Ten Days on Ilorse-He- at SlralgbC Mr. Henry Egle, a large horse owner of Silyer Lake, Lake county, Oregon, left Sprague River on December 20th to cross the mountains to Cycane valley, on his way to Silver Lake, the distance being SO miles. He had nine head of grown horses and one colt, expecting to make the trip of 30 miles easily In one day, and taking only lunch for that day. After making 21 miles a storm caught him and he lost the trail and had to camp. His lunch lasted him two days ; then he killed the young colt, living on horse-ve- al lor eight days. The storm finally abating he made a pair of Indian snow-shoe-s by un braiding bis raw-hid- e lassoo or "riatta," he climbed to the top of a bald butte got sight of Mt. Hagar, and found out where he was. Returning to camp he was again delayed by a snow storm lasting 24. hours. Then taking three days rations of horse- - veal he started for Cycane, leaving his horses. He made the "A L" ranch in the evening all right, but very tired and one toe frozen. The snow was yery light, and was about 8 to 4 feet deep. During the time he was in the mountains the ther of mometer at Silver Lake registered from zero to 28 below. Mr. Egle is a very pow- erful, active man, and an experienced frontiersman, otherwise he would have perished. They went back and got six horses three horses being too weak to be moved were left to starve. They had been without anything to eat for ten days. Mr. Egle says "Colt meat is best when frozen and eaten raw." ' Jan. 13, 1S0O. Several men are reported as missing on and around the desert. Weather has been cold and stormy. Snow from 4 to 5 inches ing deep here at Silver Lake, but very deep in mountains. Mercury ranged from zero down to 5, 8 and 10, and sometimes below, but did not feci the cold as to much as at The Dalles when it was at zero. on Horses seem to stand the cold quite not well. A great many sheep are dying on deser'. The snow is too deep; should there be no Chinook in a mooth half the sheep and cattle without leed will die. Horses running out are doing better. In Goose Lake valley a great deal of stock is dying. They bad uo crops there sciutou. M. . ghootins Affray at Fayette. Weuer leader. On Menday evening last Joseph Atchison, commonly known as "Sheepherd Joe," shot of noted character by the name of KJ. Ab- bott, in Brown & Bank's saloon, at Payette. m all that we havu been able to learn, particulars of the affray are about as follows) It appears that Joe and Abbott were in JJrowu ft Bank's saloon engaged in gambling, when a dispute arose. Joe, hearing of the desperate character of Ab- bott before this, quit the game, and was standing in the room, when Abbott got up commenced calling Joe a coward, tel- ling him he would not shoot, at same time drawing his knife and advancing. When about six feet apart Joe Atchison drew W. and fired, the ball taking cfiect Abbott's breast, just above the left nip. his ranging a little down, passing clear through his body and through the wall of building; but, strange to ssy, the shot failed to canse Abbott to fall, but he kept after Joe with his knife. After the first Joe lowered his pistol, as some one called to him not to shoot any more as he kuled Abbott, Joe lit opt after the shooting, but it is supposed he concluded last. giye himself oyer to the authorities, as he kers. arrived here Wednesday evening late, and next morning surrendered himself to was but Sheriff Pence, who lodged hint in jail and notified the A.da county officials. Ou Thursday evening Constable Edwards left; Joe in charge for Payette where a pre- liminary but examination will be. held. Joe Atchison was, when sober, a very peaceful quiet man, but when drinking ' ' was inclined to be quarrelsome.

CRoort. imn. ftema ef Interest Colled From the Newsy Columns of the Ochoco Bcvie.w. Joe Howard was quite busy with a boat last Tuesday driving cattle out of Crooked river bottom above town. Some of them had been surrounded on high spots of ground and had to swim to reach the hills. Sandy Finlayson is said to have lost about one-hal- f his sheep during the recent storm. He had plenty of feed on the place he bought of Colonel Wye, but tor some reason cub sheep did not do well on hay alone. Joe Crooks says the snow drifts still re main level with the fences on Willow creek. though the snow .has goue off the country generally. Willow creekers will be able to test the glacier method of irrigating, from these drifts the coming season. About three acres of the W. V. & C. M. Co's. land, in the eastern part of town, was washed away Tuesday and Wednesday. Fortunately there was no houses on the ground that was attacked by the water. Had a few hundred dollars been spent in dyking the. stream this land could have been eaved. Hon. S. A. Johns died at Good Samaritan hospital in Portland oh Wednesday of last week. He was well known in Prineville, haying spent several years here with his son, the late vv. is. A. jonna, county juie of this county, who died a year ago lost August. The high water Tuesday! washed out the foundation of the bridge across Ochoco, in the eastern part of town, but the bridge was secured with ropes and chains and kept from floating down the stream. The piers to the bridge on Main streetjwere also con siderably damaged, but teams were put to work hauling rock to refill the piers and the bridge was kept in position. The warm weather and rains'the first of the week raised all the streams and Crooked river and Ochoco got on a regular "bust" being higher than they baye been for years, though no material damage was done ex cept the washing ont of one bridge and the drowning of a fejv stock. , Tbe past few nights have been cool, and it is generally thought the streams will vstay Jwitliin their binks the rest of the season. The high water on Crooked riyer the first the week carried out the new bridge across tbe river at the mouth of Newsone creek. It is said that tbe pier in tbe cen- ter of the river, on which the bridge rested, was filled with brush instead of rock as the contract called for, and would not withstand the force of the water and ice that came against it. The bridge cost the county it something over $300, though it had been re ceived by the county court, and the loss will no doubt fall on the county. The wash out of this bridgejis a serious disadvan- tage to the people of the easrern part of the county, and it willjbe necessary for another of be built next season. But if one is erected it should be a single span, resting solid butments at each end, so it would be endangered by high waters and float- ing ice. to Items From Sherman County.

These heavy rains were attended by destructive I i'IoocIs in the rivers of the lower Ohio and ceu,rai vallcvs. Excessive rains have continued ou the Pacific coast. and damaging floods have also occurred in California. The monthly rainfall at San Francisco was 9.G inches, and at Sac- ramento H.0 inches.

W. uREELY, Chief Signal Officer. THE DALLES BOAT RAILWAY. The Projeet That is Kecommended by the itoard of V. H. Baxineeia. Ororonian. Tbe long expected report of tbe board of government engineer ollicers that was to consider tbe subject of the obstruc- tions to navigation in the Columbia river, between Tbe Dalles and Celilo, aud de vise some method for overcoming tbem within reasonable limits of expense, has at last been givea to the public. In its preliminary report, rendered in December last, the board recommended, as a temporary expedient for overcoming these obstructions, that a portage single track railroad be made on the Washing ton side.at an estimated cost of $431,500. Tnis could be contructed ia one year, and would undoubtedly be the quickest and a cheapest solution of the existing difficul ties. Kecogmzing that this project is not free from objections, in that it re quires transhipment of freight, and that while perhaps adequate for the present it may not answer future requirements, the board has, as directed by the act defining duties, caused a second project to bo prepared, which it now recommends as a final solution to tbe problem. In this project boats. are taken from the river at the foot of The Dalles rapids, and are returned to the river at the head Celilo falls by means of hydraulic lifts, one at each terminus, aud ate transported E. over the intermediate distance a little is more than eight milts in length by a boat railway. The lower lift is designed in raise the boats sixty-eigh- t feet at low by water and the upper lift forty fett. The distance to which the boats are to be lifted diminish as the water rises. The is an adaptation of the' hydraulic dock in use for some years at the Uuion Iron Works in San Francisco. The pro- cess is, therefore not experimental. The lower lift consists of sixteen cast iron a cylinders, each thiry-on- e and one-hal- f inches in interior diameter and nineteen feet seven inches long, weighing nineteen tons. In 'these are rams bavin? & full his stroke of seventeen feet three inches. Tbey are placed in two rows, forty-si- x fett apart, the rams in each row being twenty-tw- o aud feet between his centers. There is a platform or cradlo between these rows suppoited by chains from the heads of the rams. The chains so arranged over sheaves as to give cradle a speed and movement lour to times that of the rams. A device lor regu- lating the admission of the water in each press eo controls the movement of tho rams as tn maintain them at a uniform in the speed and the cradle in a - horizontal he position, notwithstanding any difference and the load on the several rains. The cradle is placed under tbe boat whila in water. After it is raised to the top ot lift this is removed and the car on which the boat is to be transported ou railroad is substituted. The railroad is a double track ordi- nary gunge road, the tracks being twenty on feet between centers, and the iron weigh- ing of ninety pounds to the yard. It is required of the car that it ehull trah sport with safety the loaded boat or barge, C. leave sufficient flexibility to pass over horizontal and vertical curves of the road. The maximum load to be carried is estimated at 600 tons. Tbe pi a' form is G8 feet long by 38 feet wide. The lateral flexibility to enable the c r to pits around curves is obtained by the arrangement of trucks. There is thirty-fou- r four-- ; wheeled trucks placed in two lines of seventeen each. . . .. Tbe weight of tire car is 300 tons. a maximum weight is 600 ton?, making total weight of the loaded car 900 tons. The average- - load per truck is twenty seven and one-ha- lf t:,r., and per wheel seven Ions. The car witn its lovd propelled on the track by two fifty-to- a ordinary locomotives. The boats are 1C3 feet long and 33 feet beam and 5 feet draught, weighing with cargo COO tons. The weight of the cradle tons. The total weight to be raised the lift is 1458 tons. The speed of elevation, four and one-ha- lf feet per minute. . .' The estimated cost of the whole system, with equipment of two cars and four and engines, capable of passing eight loads of tons iu each direction in twelve hours, including necessary buildings, and ten to percent for contingencies, is $2,690,356. Estimate for improving Three Mile Rapids. $170,060, making an aggregate of $2,800,356. It is estimated that a further expenditure of $716,000 io buildings, cars engines, and side tracks,, will afford tbe maximum capacity of forty boats each way in twenty-fo-ur hours. - The annual cost of maintenance to pa sixteen beats in twelve hours is estimated be $80,000; and topass thirty-tw- o in twenty-fou- r hoprs would cost $50,000. estimated time for transporting one boat from Tbe Dalles to the head of Celilo falls is one hour and a half. The duty of formulating this , scheme working up its details was assigned . Lieutenant Edward Burr, corps of engineers, whose teport accompanies that the board. - Tbe board claims as especial merits of project that it avoids river improve- ment at Ten Mile rapids; that consider- ing the formidable character of the ob- structions its estimated cost is moderate, that tbe operation of transferring a boat from river to river is effected in less for time(oioety minutes) than by any other method. Tbe boai J makes no estimate as to tbe length. of time that will be required to of complete the work.- - Tbis is probably because of the' uncertainty with which fuuds for such government enterprises doled out in driblets.1 With the ex- ample pf the Cascade locks in view it may be expected tbs,t many generations come and go before the work is com- pleted.- thing Nor does it discuss tbe commer- cial it elements involved in tbe problem, or express an opioiou as to tbe advLibility you tbe government commencing a work a any kind.

Up in British Columbia among theKfiotenl Jndlans there is a natural curios-ity

torin the shape of a two-heade- boy.

He is now about 4 years of age and )s tbeperfectly healthy, and gives evidence ofpossessing the average amount of intelli-gence possessed by other Indian childrenof simitar age, : This peculiar piece ofhumanity has one body, but has two wellformed. heads, wjth perfect eyes, mouthand nose, but one ot (he heads has yerypeculiarly formed ears. The heads aregrown together, and the appearance ofthis freak of nature is anything but pre-possessing. But one mouth is used ineating ana in making sounds, the other butseemingly not being perfectly connected in

PLUCK AND ENDURANCE.

Ten Days on Ilorse-He- at SlralgbCMr. Henry Egle, a large horse owner of

Silyer Lake, Lake county, Oregon, leftSprague River on December 20th to cross

the mountains to Cycane valley, on hisway to Silver Lake, the distance beingSO miles. He had nine head of grownhorses and one colt, expecting to makethe trip of 30 miles easily In one day, andtaking only lunch for that day. Aftermaking 21 miles a storm caught him andhe lost the trail and had to camp. Hislunch lasted him two days ; then he killedthe young colt, living on horse-ve- al loreight days. The storm finally abating hemade a pair of Indian snow-shoe-s by unbraiding bis raw-hid- e lassoo or "riatta,"he climbed to the top of a bald butte gotsight of Mt. Hagar, and found out wherehe was. Returning to camp he was againdelayed by a snow storm lasting 24. hours.Then taking three days rations of horse- -veal he started for Cycane, leaving hishorses. He made the "A L" ranch in theevening all right, but very tired and onetoe frozen. The snow was yery light, andwas about 8 to 4 feet deep. During thetime he was in the mountains the ther ofmometer at Silver Lake registered fromzero to 28 below. Mr. Egle is a very pow-erful, active man, and an experiencedfrontiersman, otherwise he would haveperished. They went back and got sixhorses three horses being too weak to bemoved were left to starve. They hadbeen without anything to eat for ten days.Mr. Egle says "Colt meat is best whenfrozen and eaten raw." '

Joe Howard was quite busy with a boat

last Tuesday driving cattle out of Crooked

river bottom above town. Some of them

had been surrounded on high spots of ground

and had to swim to reach the hills.

Sandy Finlayson is said to have lost aboutone-hal- f his sheep during the recent storm.

He had plenty of feed on the place he bought

of Colonel Wye, but tor some reason cub

sheep did not do well on hay alone.

Joe Crooks says the snow drifts still remain level with the fences on Willow creek.though the snow .has goue off the country

generally. Willow creekers will be able to

test the glacier method of irrigating, fromthese drifts the coming season.

About three acres of the W. V. & C. M.

Co's. land, in the eastern part of town, waswashed away Tuesday and Wednesday.

Fortunately there was no houses on theground that was attacked by the water.Had a few hundred dollars been spent indyking the. stream this land could havebeen eaved.

Hon. S. A. Johns died at Good Samaritanhospital in Portland oh Wednesday of lastweek. He was well known in Prineville,haying spent several years here with hisson, the late vv. is. A. jonna, county juieof this county, who died a year ago lostAugust.

The high water Tuesday! washed out thefoundation of the bridge across Ochoco, inthe eastern part of town, but the bridge wassecured with ropes and chains and keptfrom floating down the stream. The piersto the bridge on Main streetjwere also considerably damaged, but teams were put towork hauling rock to refill the piers and thebridge was kept in position.

The warm weather and rains'the first ofthe week raised all the streams and Crookedriver and Ochoco got on a regular "bust"being higher than they baye been for years,though no material damage was done except the washing ont of one bridge and thedrowning of a fejv stock. , Tbe past fewnights have been cool, and it is generallythought the streams will vstay Jwitliin theirbinks the rest of the season.

The high water on Crooked riyer the firstthe week carried out the new bridge

across tbe river at the mouth of Newsonecreek. It is said that tbe pier in tbe cen-

ter of the river, on which the bridge rested,was filled with brush instead of rock as thecontract called for, and would not withstandthe force of the water and ice that cameagainst it. The bridge cost the county itsomething over $300, though it had been received by the county court, and the loss

will no doubt fall on the county. The washout of this bridgejis a serious disadvan-

tage to the people of the easrern part of thecounty, and it willjbe necessary for another

ofbe built next season. But if one iserected it should be a single span, resting

solid butments at each end, so it wouldbe endangered by high waters and float-

THE DALLES BOAT RAILWAY.

The Projeet That is Kecommended bythe itoard of V. H. Baxineeia.

Ororonian.Tbe long expected report of tbe board

of government engineer ollicers that wasto consider tbe subject of the obstruc-tions to navigation in the Columbia river,between Tbe Dalles and Celilo, aud devise some method for overcoming tbemwithin reasonable limits of expense, hasat last been givea to the public.

In its preliminary report, rendered inDecember last, the board recommended,as a temporary expedient for overcomingthese obstructions, that a portage singletrack railroad be made on the Washington side.at an estimated cost of $431,500.Tnis could be contructed ia one year, andwould undoubtedly be the quickest and acheapest solution of the existing difficul

ties. Kecogmzing that this project isnot free from objections, in that it requires transhipment of freight, and thatwhile perhaps adequate for the present itmay not answer future requirements, theboard has, as directed by the act defining

duties, caused a second project to boprepared, which it now recommends as afinal solution to tbe problem.

In this project boats. are taken fromthe river at the foot of The Dalles rapids,and are returned to the river at the head

Celilo falls by means of hydraulic lifts,one at each terminus, aud ate transported

E.over the intermediate distance a little ismore than eight milts in length by aboat railway. The lower lift is designed in

raise the boats sixty-eigh- t feet at low bywater and the upper lift forty fett. Thedistance to which the boats are to belifted diminish as the water rises. The

is an adaptation of the' hydraulicdock in use for some years at the UuionIron Works in San Francisco. The pro-cess is, therefore not experimental. Thelower lift consists of sixteen cast iron a

cylinders, each thiry-on- e and one-hal- f

inches in interior diameter and nineteenfeet seven inches long, weighing nineteentons. In 'these are rams bavin? & full hisstroke of seventeen feet three inches.Tbey are placed in two rows, forty-si- x

fett apart, the rams in each row beingtwenty-tw- o aud feet between hiscenters. There is a platform or cradlobetween these rows suppoited by chainsfrom the heads of the rams. The chains

so arranged over sheaves as to givecradle a speed and movement lour to

times that of the rams. A device lor regu-lating the admission of the water in eachpress eo controls the movement of thorams as tn maintain them at a uniform in

thespeed and the cradle in a - horizontalheposition, notwithstanding any differenceandthe load on the several rains. The

cradle is placed under tbe boat whila inwater. After it is raised to the top otlift this is removed and the car on

which the boat is to be transported ourailroad is substituted.

The railroad is a double track ordi-nary gunge road, the tracks being twenty onfeet between centers, and the iron weigh-ing

ofninety pounds to the yard.

It is required of the car that it ehull trahsport with safety the loaded boat or barge, C.

leave sufficient flexibility to pass overhorizontal and vertical curves of the

road. The maximum load to be carried isestimated at 600 tons. Tbe pi a' form is

G8 feet long by 38 feet wide. The lateralflexibility to enable the c r to pits aroundcurves is obtained by the arrangement of

trucks. There is thirty-fou- r four-- ;wheeled trucks placed in two lines ofseventeen each. . . ..

Tbe weight of tire car is 300 tons. amaximum weight is 600 ton?, makingtotal weight of the loaded car 900

tons. The average- - load per truck istwenty seven and one-ha- lf t:,r., and perwheel seven Ions. The car witn its lovd

propelled on the track by two fifty-to- a

ordinary locomotives.The boats are 1C3 feet long and 33 feet

beam and 5 feet draught, weighing withcargo COO tons. The weight of the cradle

tons. The total weight to be raisedthe lift is 1458 tons. The speed of

elevation, four and one-ha- lf feet perminute. . .'

The estimated cost of the whole system,with equipment of two cars and four andengines, capable of passing eight loads of

tons iu each direction in twelve hours,including necessary buildings, and ten topercent for contingencies, is $2,690,356.Estimate for improving Three MileRapids. $170,060, making an aggregate of$2,800,356. It is estimated that a furtherexpenditure of $716,000 io buildings, carsengines, and side tracks,, will afford tbemaximum capacity of forty boats eachway in twenty-fo-ur hours. -

The annual cost of maintenance to pasixteen beats in twelve hours is estimated

be $80,000; and topass thirty-tw- o intwenty-fou- r hoprs would cost $50,000.

estimated time for transporting oneboat from Tbe Dalles to the head ofCelilo falls is one hour and a half.

The duty of formulating this , schemeworking up its details was assigned

. Lieutenant Edward Burr, corps ofengineers, whose teport accompanies that

the board. -

Tbe board claims as especial merits ofproject that it avoids river improve-

ment at Ten Mile rapids; that consider-ing the formidable character of the ob-

structions its estimated cost is moderate,that tbe operation of transferring a

boat from river to river is effected in less fortime(oioety minutes) than by any othermethod.

Tbe boai J makes no estimate as to tbelength. of time that will be required to

ofcomplete the work.- - Tbis is probablybecause of the' uncertainty with which

fuuds for such government enterprisesdoled out in driblets.1 With the ex-

ample pf the Cascade locks in view itmay be expected tbs,t many generations

pleted.-thing
