Gleason has sold bis brick mak ing plant to the Macleay interests at Wedderburn sad it has already been shipped to Ould Beach. As soon as It arrives there, Mr. Gleason and George Athinaon will go there to operate it for the summer. Mr. Gleason was there some time ago and found a first class quality of clay for brick making.

To help the telephone company meet wage increases snd other abnormal expenses, a temporary madifiestion is made in the rates for business service.

W ill Pay Damage« Haturday Eugene Register: James Lemon, head sawyer in thrmmill o f the Western Lumber company nt Cottage Grove, yesterday promised Sheriff Fred Htickels that he would pay for the dam- i age done to a ear driven by Jesse Mich aels, whieh he ran into Sunday night with a larger car, failing to stop to in quire as to the damage, or whether or not anyone in the other ear was injured. Lemon was driving very fast in West Hpringfield on his way home to Cottage Grove from Eugene when he ran into Michael's ear badly damaging it. Mich ael could not see the license number on the big ear, but information from Cot tage Grove that such a ear had been placed in a garage there for repairs led to the apprehension of I.emon. He will pay the cost o f the repairs to Michael's ear, amounting to about #50, According to his promise to Skeriff Htickels. The manager o f the mill guaranteed that payment would be made. Sheriff Htickels. while at Cottage Grove yesterday, recovered a gold watch from another mill worker, which is al leged to have been stolen from a Hood River man. The works bear the same number as thst given by the Hood River man. bat the rase was traded o ff in Portland, according to the mill work er. The Hood River man valued the ease higher than he did the works, as the wnteh was a present to him and the case contained an inscription. The sher i f f will endeavor to locate the dealer in Portland where the trade was made. Shoe Manufacturer Visits Hera. W. J. Hubbard, o f Eugene, was in the eity Hunday visiting V. 8.
