Wild Ride Down
Mitchell Mountain
Dr. Rosenberg and Ed Hodson
experienced a thrilling ride down
the mountain this side of Mitchell
Monday night.
The doctor received a hurry-up
call to visit a patient in the Bridge
creek country and called on Chauf
feur Hodson to make the trip. Ed
got him there all right but on the
return on a 45 per cent grade the
brakes failed to hold the machine
and it was soon beyond control.
To make matters worse the road
was crooked and the lights from
the car added to the confusion. In
the darkness the car struck a stump
and swerved the machine around
against a tree. This is the only
thing that prevented a complete
summersault. The car got wedged r
so that it was held on the ground. !
The powerful Velie was a complete '
wreck. The occupants of the car
were glad to get off alive.
Backfire Breaks Arm
of Wistar Rosenberg
Wistar Rosenberg got his arm
broken Wednesday from a back
fire while cranking the Haner car.
He with Frank and Ralph Haner
were playing about the auto and in
a spirit of fun Wistar started to
crank it. One of the other boys
advanced the spark too far and a
flareback resulted. By using his
X-ray machine Dr. Rosenberg was
able to set the broken bone perfectly.
Pleasant Surprise
for Mrs. Walker
Saturday evening the seniors of
1913 Crook County High School
delightfully surprised Mrs. Walker
a the home of Mrs. John Wigle. I
Mrs. Wigle and Mrs. Adams kept'
the secret so well that the result
was a real surprise.
Mrs. Walker was the instructor
in English for the class in their
sophomore year and a life long
friendship grew from their work
together in the class rooms in spite
of "tests" and "memory gems"
and other, troublesome phases of
English. In the class circle that
was formed in 1911, seventeen pro
claimed loyalty and friendship as
the strongest degrees in their class
friendship. Of the original seven
teen, eight enjoyed the reunion
with Mrs. Walker. The absent
members were remembered as the
class in circle assembled spent the
evening in reminiscences of school
life. Students and instructors
came in for their share in memory's
revival as class and teacher lived
old days again. As Mrs. Wigle
served refreshments Mrs. Walker
proposed the toast, "Successful
futures to the sophomores of 1911."
Those present were the Misses
Estes, Hemple, Doak, Bundy and
Messrs. McAllister, Myers, Bixby
and Rowell. As these young people
turned homeward from their first
class gathering since commence
ment, the class reunion toast, a
gem of the English days was strong
in the hearts of each.
"There's no friend like an old friend,
Vhone lite path meete our on;
Wlione dawn and noon and evening
Has known what we have known."
Worst Storm in
Many Years
A severe electrical storm passed
over Prineville Monday afternoon.
The storm was the worst in many
years. Thirty or forty hogs were
killed in the Powell Butte country
but beyond this no other damage
was reported.
The Des Chutes Power Co. lost a
few burntout fuses and a few lamps.
The damage was nominal.
The lightning struck a telephone
pole on Mrs. McDowell's ranch be
low town but no damage was done.
The men working in the field close
by got a bad scare, however, and
made a hasty break for cover.

Death of Mrs. Hinton
"Yet 'twill only be a (deep:
When, with snntm and dewy light
Morutug liUMtHoma out of nlirht.
She will open her dear eyed
'Neath the piilnm of Parading. "
Mrs. Mary E. Hinton died at her
home in Prineville, Sunday, August
24th, at the age of 70 years, 8
months, 20 days.
Mrs. Hinton, who was Mary E.
Lemley, was born near Lewisburg,
Arkansas, December 4th, 1842
She crossed the plains with her
parents in 1853 and settled near
Corvallis. She lived in Lane county
for several years and in August,
1860, married B. B. Hinton. Ten
children were born to them, eight
of whom are living.
In 1879 Mr. and Mrs. Hinton
moved to Wasco county where they
lived until 1882, when they came to
Crook j county where Mrs. Hinton
has since lived. The husband died
in 1900.
Grandma Hinton, as she was
familiarly called, has lived in Prine
ville about seven years, during
which time she has endeared her
self to all who had the pleasure of
knowing her. Besides rearing her
own family Mrs. Hinton took her
little granddaughter, Thelma Miller,
who lost her mother when she was
a baby and has since been a mother
to her.
A motto practiced many years in
the Hinton home was "Our door is
always open to the helpless and
needy," and many a person has re
ceived help when most needed from
the hands of Grandma Hinton.
Mrs. Hinton was a most devoted
wife and mother. She leaves two
daughters Mrs. Nancy O'dell of
Ontario, and Kitty Harris of Sisters,
and six sons E. T., of Washington;
C. S., of Shaniko; Harry, of Cali
fornia; John, of Idaho; Alex and
Bud of Prineville. She also leaves
a sister, Mrs. b. J. Milliorn of
Prineville, and three brothers, ' C.
C, Will and Tony Lemley, to
mourn her loss.

New Postoffices
in Crook County
T. E- Whitney, postoffice in
spector for this district, recently
spent several days in Crook and
Lake counties looking after his of
ficial duties. He established new
offices in Crook county at High
lands, Dry Lake and Glass Butte
valley. Also five offices were es
tablished in Lake county in Fort
Rock valley. He inspected several
offices in both counties.
J. W. Boone accompanied Mr.
Whitney on this trip and reports
that the people in the vicinity of
Hampton prefer to trade in Prine
ville because it is nearer and prices
are better but they cannot do so
on account of bad roads.
Badly Injured by
Dynamite Cap
Seward Bngg, the 16 year-old
son of P. A. Bugg, who lives on the
south side of Powell Butte, met
with a serious accident yesterday
afternoon while experimenting with
a dynamite cap. He was holding a
cap in his left hand and with his
right applied a match. There was
an explosion and the boy was minus
the ends of his thumb and the first
and second fingers of the left hand.
His left eye was also badly injured.
The chances are against his ever
being able to see with it again.
Dr. Edwards did all that was pos
sible for the injured lad.

The "Story of the Cadillac," is one of that mechanical and
commercial advancement which makes for permanency.
The Cadillac Company has never yielded to clamor by
producing that which catered merely to fancy, nor
that which took advantage of the uninformed. On the
contrary it has produced only that which it knew would
give to the purchaser ' value received" in abundant measure.
The Cadillac Company has never been obliged to resort
to exaggeration and over-drawn claims to dispose of all
the cars that it could make and more. Its policy has
. ever been to under-claim rather than over-claim. It is
gratified that the public accepts its representations at their
full worth; because the public has never been misled and
because the public could always expect and has always
received more than was offered. ,
