GEORGE CARULE DIES FROM EFFECTS OF STRAIN Deceased Had Be«a Associated With Lumber Industry for 20 Years; Leaves Large Family. George L. Carlile, logging and mill superintendent at the A. L. Woodard null south oi here, died Thursday night of last week at a Eugene hospital. The funeral was held Hunday afternoon 1 rout ill«* Christian church, R«*v. J. E. Carlson officiating. Interment was in the A. I . & A. M.-I. O. O. F. ceme tery. Mr. Carlile, who had been identified with the logging and mill business here for 20 years, was born April 11, 1884, ut Goldeudale, Wash. He was aged 38 years, 8 months, 3 days. About six weeks ago he sustained a severe strain while taking out the flues o f the boiler at the Woodard mill. One o f the flues was taken out with considerable d i f f i culty and gave way only a f ter un un usually vigorous pull. The weight, sud denly thrown onto Mr. Carlile, caused the strain. He continued at his work for two weeks until collapsing. He was taken to the hospital four weeks before death. Mr. Carlile is survived by a widow any seven children, as follows: Vivian, 14; Marguerite, 12; Kenneth, 10; Grace, 8; Wendall, 5; Alaye, 3; A r thur, 1.

C A R S T A N D S ON NOSE I N D I T C H B U T I S N ’T I N J U R E D Occupants o f a Stephens ear had a miraculous escape from serious injury Hunday when the car went over the grade ut the bad turn in P a c ific high way at the point in Puss creek canyon where the roek crusher used to stand. When the car hit the bottom o f the grade it was standing ou its nose but instead of going on over on its baek it dropped ba«k onto its wheels and tin* occupants climbed out unscrutehed. Nearly a d a y ’s time was required to get the car baek onto the highway and logging tackle had to be used to hoist it out of the diteh. The car seemed not to be injured in any way except for a slight twist in the con neeting rods between the wheels which is part o f the steering mechanism. The car came into the city on its own power, the injury was repaired within an hour uml the party continued on their way. N E W C ROSSING S E M A P H O R E A T M A I N S. P. CROSSING The Southern Pacific has installed a new crossing bell and swinging sema phore at its Main street crossing and has removed the old crossing bell, which set between the tracks and so far north of the crossing that it was not always easily visible to those wish mg to use the crossing. The new bell and semaphore is set east, o f tho tracks and the swinging semaphore is suspended from a crane that extends out over tho street and this makes the sign plainly visible from both east and west. Santa Visits Cottage Grove. Hunt a Claus made his non ml visit to Cottage Grove last .Saturday and spent the day traveling about the city in a borne-drawn buggy loaded with small gifts which he distributed among the hundreds o f excited kiddies who followed him.

I tf LAME, HALT AND BLIND GO TO EVANGELIST PRICE Believer and Disbeliever in Divine Presence Ad m it That Help Is Given to the Sick. Nothiug which ever has takeu place in Cottage Grove has caused more comment pro and con than the evan gelistic meetings conducted by Dr. C. H. Price. Them is no qurstiou what ever that the evangelist brings sum«; power to strike those for whom he prays and a majority of the pi-ople ol ihe community oelieve that tuose who believe that tuey ure going to be bene iited are beiieiited. The evangelist insists that there must be absolute laith that they are to be cured through divine influence. A remarkable case u> show what influence the evuugelisi summons was that of a paralyzed luib) . A f te r the laying on o f uuiul» aud the prayer it was able to raise its head aud during the remainder o f the meet ing held its head up and looked into its mother’s face, something it is said never to have bet ore done. Alany ol the adults who were prayed for testi lied that their bodily ailments have been greatly relieved or that they have been completely healed. The meetings were held Monday, 1uesduy and vVeduesday evenings in the Methodist church, with overflow meetings at the Presbyterian church. Ihe meetings at the lalier church were not addressed by th«3 evangelist, how ever, until Wednesday night. T o secure a seat in the Methodist church many went there us early us 5 o ’clock and at b o ’clock, an hour and a hall before the services started, practically every seat was takeu. Muuy who went to tho services doubting that the things could be per formed which it was said would b e performed, came away believers that tho divine power had visited the ul tlicted. Others inclined to believe came away disbelieving that divine influ ence had been present. Except for the healing o f the sick, these ev augelistn- meetings were no different than au,v other evangelistic meetings. Tbe Hcntinel does not attempt t«> state whether Evangelist Price is what his ardent supporters say he is. Thai is for each individual to decide for himself, and everyone seems willing to do his own deciding. The Hentinel would not take from any the j o y aud pleasure and comfort they have gotten as a result of Dr. P r i c e ’s meetings. Neither would it hold out any false hope by stating that any manner of illness eould be cured through th«? power that Dr. Price brings to help the sick and weary. Unquestionably many have found relief, either perma cent or temporary. Whether that re lie f came through a direct demonstrn tion o f divine power or through the exercise o f human power divinely giv ei. may not greatly matter. The only question o f importance is the a menu t of permanent good accomplished. Be liever and disbeliever must abide the passing of time for proof or disproof. R. N. A. Officers Elected.
