Philomath cannot boast of an up to date park, but the good people are not unappreciative of what nature has done for them, as was evidenced last Sunday when from every hilltop and valley children young and old could be seen racing for the first wild bloom and enjoy ing the sunshine and landscape. For real beauty of surroundings none can surpass Philomath. ' Early last Sunday morning, the good people of Philomath were startled by some very unusual ''toots" from the Benton County Lumber yard. The whistling was the very earnest appeal of the night watchman for the engineer. Some trouble with the boiler was the cause of the excitement. Prof. C. G. Springer, who taught in the Philomath public school this winter has gone to Alsea to teach. Easter services at both churches, Sun day morning were well attended.

Whooping cough is quite prevalent, nearly every day new cases are reported, and old cases seem quite stubborn. The family of Harding McCormick, who were the first to take it, are practically no better than they were two or three weeks ago." The big slide on the Philomath moun tain that has been a source of annoy ance for the past three weeks was shov eled oat last week. ' The new road that is being constructed from the Missouri Bend neighborhood down the river to connect with the Tide water road : at Digger Creek, is beine pushed along quite rapidly. The horse trail is now completed, and the mail, in stead of going across Digger mountain, will go the new road, thereby giving the Bend people the advautage of the free delivery. The remainder of the material for the Farmers' Mutual Telephone Company's lines, came in on the freight wagon last Saturday evening and the line is now being put up. As 60on as the telephones are installed the board of management will make arrangements to have a free graphaphone entertainment over the line at a designated hour. Summit.

(Special .from . Al-ea.) -R G. Mires, Mai ion Hayden and M. S. Rickard met with quite a catastrophe on last, Friday evening. The trio had been in attendance as delegates to the Republican convention, and on leaving Corvallis the next day it was agreed upon j to drive to the Mires home and there, re-! main for the night. After reaching there and partaking of an excellent supper pre pared by Mrs. Mires, Mr. Rickard anl Mr. Hajden concluded that since the moon would soon rise, they would walk on te their homes that nihL Thereupon Mr. Mires generously offered to hitch his team to his hack and drive them home. They hadx reached a point in the county road about one hundred yards west of where the Mres road intersects the county road when they -concluded the rig as out of the road. The moon bad not risen and neither road uor horses could be seen. Hayden and Rickard were de tailed to get out of the hack and make search for the lost road, while Mires was to remain in .the rig and hold the lines. When Hayden and Rickard alighted from the upper side of the tilting rig, over it went, taking Mires, horses and all over a precipice of rocks, stumps and and logs into a chasm far below. In the intense darkness, nothing could be seen except the fire flashing from the clashing shoes of the horses. A moment later everything was still as death. Hayden was the first to break the awful silence, shouting, "Bob, are you hurt?" His only reply was the mournful sound of the wind as it gently fanned the tops of the majestic trees. After calling to Mires several times with no response be turned to Rickard who stood in the road near him, and said, "I guess Bob's a goner." By this time Mires nad caught his breath sufficient to speax and cal'ed for matches. While all three of these men are smokers,' strange to say not a match could be found in the crowd. Rickard bad matches in his grip, but his grip was somewhere in the wreckage on the side of the mountain. While Hayden was making a record as a sprinter toward the Mires home for a lantern, Rickard luckily stumbled onto his valise and by striking matches furnished light with which they were en abled to cut the harness and free the horses. Miraculous as it may seem neither horses nor driver were seriously injure I. The frightened animals were led around the side of the mountain and back into the road by the time Hayden had returned with a light. For the sec ond time on this same evening Mr. Mires extended an invitation to his friends to partake of his hospitality for the night, and this time they unhesitat ingly accepted it.
