ful relief to the emigrants who crossed the x
plains 50 years ago. I remember that
one of the veterans among pioneers said to
me that when his company was camped
in the sandy shores of Snake river they
were much afraid of hostile savages. One
night they heard a terrible floundering in
the .river close by and stood guard all
night to ward off harm, but when morn-
ing came they discovered that this noise
,was caused by salmon that came in great
schools and were trying to get over a
riffle in the river.
The finest smelt are found in the
Columbia. They are as delicate and
dainty as fastidious tongue can desire or
pampered palate wish. And they come
.up the river when fish are mostly desired
and least provided. They first come in
numbers few and scattered, but with ex-
cellence beyond reproach. The pioneers
of the movement are caught with all the
^ains necessary and taken to Portland to
be served to club epicures and gormands

DREAMED THE IDEA.
The Sewing Machine Needle Was In-
vented In Sleep.
We owe the invention of the sewing
machine to Elias Howe, an American me-
chanic, as you all know. He had a large
family to care for and could give only his
odd moments to the construction of his
machine. But while laboring for daily
bread for himself and his family he was
constantly thinking out his invention.
He got on quite well until ho came to
the making of a needle; then ho was at a
standstill, for he could not discover where
the eye of the needle should be placed. At
first he thought that a needle fashioned
after the ordinary needle for hand sewing
might be all right, but after much experi-
menting he found that it would not do.
He was greatly perplexed. The needle
question absorbed his thoughts by day,
and at night he dreamed about needles.
One night he dreamed that ho was in a
far distant country that was ruled over
by a savage king. The king ordered him
to construct, a sewing machine, and, not
daring to disobey orders, he at once set to
work. All went well until he camo to
the location of the needle’s eye; then his
troubles began.
The king grew impatient and finally
gave the inventor just 24 hours in which
to complete the machine and told him he
must forfeit his life if he failed to finish
the task. He worked harder than ever,
you may be sure, but found that he could
not invent a proper needle and had. to
give it up.
Just as the king’s warriors were about
to take him away to execute him he
noticed that the spears they carried were
Like an inspira-
problem
Cottonseed Oil.
There appears to be no limitation to
the industrial uses of cottonseed oil, and
these of course are multiplied by the con-
stantly developing improvements made in
the refining processes. A marked advance
in this last respect is that the yellow oil
resulting from the first refining process^
through treatment with alkaline solu-
tions, is now further purified by heating
and filtration; then the white oil of com-
merce is obtained by shaking the yellow
oil with 2 to 3 per cent of fuller’s earth.
In purifying the yellow oil about 25 per
cent of it is separated in the form of
stearin, and the latter is employed in
making candles, etc.
From the soap stock that comes from
cottonseed oil there is likewise made a
peculiar kind- of wash powder. The soap
itself made from the oil is used extensively
by the woolen mills of this and other’
countries, and it has been found to be of
special value in washing woolen goods,
which does not injure them nor cause
them to shrink. After all, however, not
much more than one-third of the cotton-
seed supply is at present used for manu-
facturing oil and similar products.

the first of the season. Nothing can be
finer; not even flecked trout, fresh from
the purling brook, are more estimable,
toothsome or popular.
The common people read the items in
The Oregonian, and with tears in their
voices talk of the fact that plutocrats and
monopolist's and bon viveurs are eating
smelt at 75 cents per pound, but solace
themselves with the consoling certainty
that soon smelt will be plenty for all the
world, and that they will eat their full
share. In a few days smelt come up the
river in quantity and down in price until
they are piled in pyramids, on the fish
tables in front of fishmongers’ establish-
ments, when everybody’s wife, will stop to
order them for home use.
There have been times when the con-
templative angler—who has read Izaak
Walton and heard of Daniel Webster as
his disciple—has been sitting on a log at
the mouth of the Cowlitz or some smaller
stream tributary to the great Columbia
and while lost in thought has been
alarmed to find the placid waters where
his line had been idly swaying as he had
been watching and waiting, disturbed by
such swarms of hustling and swimming
things that he came near falling off his
log in serious misapprehension of what
was happening. He could not catch the
glancing lights and shadows with his
hook and line, for they were too busy to
stop and too eager to get somewhere to
bite. The only thing he could do was to
gather them in and scoop them up with
both hands and pour them into the open-
ing of his fish basket, and when, in a mo-
ment or so, the basket was full look
blankly abfiut for something to hold the
hurrying prey.
Not far away would be the cabin of
some settler. There he went in haste, an-
nounced tho coming of the first run of
smelt, when, all turned loose, rolled bar-
rels, kegs, tubs or dry goods boxes to the
river’s edge; then taking garden rakes
and shovels—anything and everything
that had a propensity to scoop and catch
and hold — the entire family—‘.‘dad,”
“mam” and the bpys, girls and hired
man—went to work manfully to scramble
for and rake in these wanderers from the '
briny deep who had come again in this
earliest month to revisit the glimpses of
the silver streams where they had been
spawned and first known the golden day.
Then there were great rushing to and fro,
great effort and prodigious performance^
as tons and wagon loads of smelt were
made game of and the net proceeds hur-
ried to Portland to find a market.
This is but a faint picture of smelt fish-
ing on the broad Columbia. Then word
is telegraphed, and all dwellers of the
Willamette and everywhere else are prom-
ised smelt without end—as long as they
last—and all are cautioned to save their
appetites for the time when the smelt
shall arrive.—Portland (Or.) Cor. New
York Times.

Cut steel is as popular as ever, and will
be seen performing a variety of offices on
autumn costumes. There are buckles,
large and small, round, oval and oblong,
that are to be used to catch the folds of
velvet on hats, to fasten belts, and, in the
miniature sizes, to ornament the toes of
slippers. Slides of steel brighten the strip
of black velvet ribbon that goes around i
the neck, and embroideries of steel beads
will be applied to revers, high collars,, and
the general decoration of bodices. Black
net, “jetted” with small cut steel, beads,
makes an effective bodice to wear in the
evening with plain black . skirts.
pierced near the head. Like
■ tion the solution of the needle
came to him, and while imploring the
savage king for a little more time he
awoke.
Although it was but 4 o’clock in the
morning, Mr. Howe arose at once and
went to his workshop, and by 8 o’clock he
had modeled a needle for his sewing ma-
chine with an eye at the point. Thus was
the perplexing problem solved.—New
York Telegram.

.Times When Hooks and Lines Are
i Discarded For"Shovels and Garden
liaises—The Sturgeon and Salmon
of Columbia River.
I Whatever claim the smelt of Atlantic
waters may have on public appreciation,
the smelt of the Columbia river and the
west coast are very delicious. The smelt
is the smallest marketable fish we have,
but mountain trout abound in Oregon
streams and are equal to any known.
Perhaps the largest of our eatable fish
is the sturgeon, and Columbia river stur-
geon are conceded to be much finer food
rthaii: those caught .on the rivers and
shores of the cast or waters of the Missis-
sippi. So Oregon sturgeon are made use
of in commerce as well as used fresh.. It
is natural to think of them as belonging
near the ocean, as those of the Pacific are
in great numbers found,at the mouth of
tho Columbia, where they feed remorse-
lessly on tho luscious Chinook salmon,
causing such damage that the cannery
men are seriously considering the advisa-
bility of making war against them to
save the salmon for their own use.
These sturgeon go hundreds of miles up
the Columbia river and are found in its
upper waters. They pass up the fearful
rapids of tho Cascades, which
miles from Columbia river bar;
make the still more fearful way for 15
miles through the mad rush of the great
and lesser dalles to reach the open water
found for hundreds of miles above there.
My own acquaintance with them extends
only to about 200 miles from tho ocean.
One of tho greatest fish stories I ever
heard relates to a visit made several years
ago to Arlington, 50 miles above the dalles.
Seeing something ■ floundering about
strong stakes driven in the broad river, I
asked the cause, and a friend told me that
some Arlington fishermen had caught a
number of sturgeon weighing from 300
to 500 pounds'"apiece, had tied ropes in
their gills and had each one ‘ ‘ staked out, ’ ’
much as a cowboy would stake out his
cayuse. I learned that they staked these
creatures out to have them ready when-
ever the local market should be bare of
fish or a sudden call come from abroad.
The Columbia river-fisheries reach in
value millions of dollars every year, and
Ealmon canneries are all along the great
river from the entrance-to above tho
dalles. Salmon run up as far as to the
sage plains of Idaho and came as a grate-
