TWO FIREFIGHTERS
LOST IN WOODS
With the return of the fire fight
ers from the forests to civilitation
iiain come tales of how narrowly
two men escaped death, not from
the flames, hut as a result of them.
A man named Kelley, from Pais
ley, ha the closest call, while Bill
McMelhn of this city also endured
very unpleasant experience. For
tunately, both were rescued in
time.
Kelley.it is paid, became lost
while, hunting. He 6 hot a young
War and in following it around
lost hia bearings. With bruin on
his back he started for camp. After
a long tramp he realized that be
was lost. 1 hen he was seized with
a panic. He threw away his game
nnd for a couple of days and a
night traveled in circles. hen
Kelley failed to make camp the
first night out two of his com
panions were detailed to search for
him. Traces of Kelley were found
and the man at one time was
heard shouting, but when searchers
answered him lie made off in the
opposite direction. Driven almost
insane Kellev wandered on. He
stumbled onto one of the aban
doned camps of the fire fighters
where he found a bottle of vinegar,
After partaking freely of its con
tents Kelley recovered his senses
Fufficiently to enable him to reach
camp. The searchers, who had
picked up Kelley's trail and fol
lowed its devious wanderings, were
about four hundred vards bemnd
him when he struck the camp.
GOOD WORK BY FIREFIGHTERS
The last of the fire fighting bri
gade, on whom has devolved the
euccessful but ditlicult task of ex
tinguisDing tne lorest tires in
southern and western Crook coun
ty, returned to frineville Sunday
night in command of C. b. Congle
ton. They report all fires either
out or nearly but, and that further
spread of the names afield is im
possible. Considerable credit is due Forest
Supervisor A. S. Ireland and
Forest Ranger B. F. Johnson of
this city and district for the able
1 miner in which they 6ubdued the
Humes after the fires had seeming
ly gotten beyond control, with a
burning frontage of anywhere from
one to fifteen miles. The men un
der them also worked hard and
well, and judged by results the
three weeks' battle of the govern
ment brigade was eminently satis
factory. Damage was chiefly confined to
the Paulina mountains a.nd areas
in the upper Deschutes valley.
Minor damage was also done near
the summit of the Cascades.
no "knock" Intended.
The Harney County News char
acterizes the recent articles in the
two Prineville papers anent the
wheat crop about Burns as "the
most ghoulish and malicious dis
position we have ever seen exhibit
ed by one locality towardanother."
It blames the Prineville press for
"knocking Harney county," and a
lot more along the same line.
As a matter of fact, Prineville
wishes Burns only happiness and
prosperity, good crops and more of
them. V hat is good for one com
munity is good for another, and
what hurts Burns hurts Prineville
and Ontario and Vale, even if 100,
000 pounds of flour did have to be
shipped from here to Burns to sup
ply a tangible denciency.
The Journal got its information-
from the Burns freighters and be
lieved their opinion of" wheat con
ditions in Harney to be perfectly
honest, fearing possible exageer
ation, however, this paper printed
its article as "what the freighters
said," not what the local reporter
thought. The wheat story was
printed as news, not as a knock.
It is pleasing to learn that Frank
Jackson, Judge Levens and other
wheat raisers in Harney have good
crops; no one is more pleased to
know this than the Journal.

CENTRAL OREGON
RAILROAD FIRST
J. P. O'Brien, general manager
of the Uarriraan lines, in an inter
view in the Portland IVlegram, an
nounce the suspension of all rail
road building elsewhere because of
the urgent need of a line into con
trat Oregon. This line will be built
first, and it will be built at once.
Mr. O'Brien says:
"We have surveys of all of the
proposed extensions, the Corvallis
it Eastern, the Columbia Southern
and the route up the Deschutes
river; in fact, all of them into the
central part of the state. It does
not really matter which route is
chosen, the north and south or the
east and west, for either one would
have to tap the same territory. I
couldn't venture a guess whether
the Columbia Southern will be ex
tended or whether the new line
will follow the Deschutes river
from its mouth up. It will all de
I end on the result of the conference
now on at Pelican bay.
Redmond News.
Redmond, August 23.
Mr. Schenck is back again from
an extended trip up the country to
the Silver Lake neighborhood. He
passes for a stranger here at pres
ent until he begins to throw his
voice around, then folks look be
hind his whiskers and find the
same old R. A. Schenck as always.
The Sturedevant-Ricker nuptials
were celebrated Tuesday evening
at the home of the bride s parents.
Justice Jones othciated. Thus the
segregation loses one of its bache
lors for which it is noted, and Red
mond loses one of its most popular
young ladies. The young people
commenced housekeeping the next
day at the Sturdevant farm be
tween Redmond and O'Neil, fol
lowed by the congratulations and
good wishes of a host of friends.
The surprise microbe is again at
work. Lou Reed and his wife were
attacked Wednesday night just on
the eve of their departure for their
future home in Washington. A
hayrack crowd went out from
town and had a very pleasant
time. Friday night Neighbor
Smith was attacked on account of
his umptyeenth birthday which
takes place today and was clear
down and out before he knew what
was the matter, befote he could
even diagnose the case. It hap
pened at Zumwalt & Millet's.
Thunder showers for several
days have kept the'air somewhat
cool in the afternoons, though the
mornings have been quite hot. e
got the thunder, but the showers
mostly fell somewhere else.
Miss Olive Smith arrived Thurs
day with her father in pretty good
shape considering her recent sick
ness, but pretty tired from the ride
from Shaniko. She does not want
any more of that kind- of convey
ance just at present.
Mr. Mulkev, from some outside
point, has come to the interior to
look after some business matters
On his last trip in Mr. Mama
brought in a new hack for F
W. McCaffery.
Lots of campers still in town.
Miss Lizzie Smith and some girl
friends went to Bend yesterday
They wanted an excuse for staying
over until today so telephoned
back that lightning had struck a
tree in front of the hotel where
they were staying, or across the
street from the store where they
were trading. Isn't that being an
an artist in the excuse line?
Later We learn that they did not
have to make up much excuse
after all and we beg Elizabeth's
pardon.
Mr. Terrill of near O'Neil was
found this afternoon in the road
between Redmond and that place
in a badly injured condition due
to being thrown from a horse in
the morning, the horse probably
falling on him. He had probably
been lying there six or eight hours
when found. A. J. Booth and Mr.
and Mrs. Morrill loaded him into
a buggy and the latter two took
him on to O'Neil. From all that
we can learn, the man's recovery
seems doubtful. ' h. C. Pakk.
