.William Nefzger returned Saturday
from a season at Ooquille. Mr. Nefzger
has been pitching for the Ooquille ball
players and has had splendid success.
He placed with good men, and his rec
ord was second to none in the team.
He is a pitcher who uses his left arm
and can send a ball over the plate at a
terrific speed. It is the opinion of im
partial observers that Mr. Nefzger is one
of the best amateur men in the state of
Oregon and it would be a very wise
move on the part of the base ball man
agers in this city to employ him next sea
son with the home nine as he is head
and shoulder above any man who has
pitched for the Oregon City team.

stood. The funeral occurred Wednes
day afternoon at 1 :30 o'clock from the
family residence and Rev. J. H. Beav
en officiated and the remains were
laid to reBtin Mountain View cemetery.
The young man has. many admirers and
friends who will ever entertain kind
memories for him. His life was full of
sunshine, and up to the last he main
tained this same admirable spirit and
passed away as one going peacefully
to sleep.
Thomas Jones, more commonly known
as "Clackamas" Jones, was in this city
one day the past week from Beaver.
Creek. His name "Clackamas" has a
little hictory worthy of narrating. It
seems that in 73 he came to tnis coun
try from Minnesota and started to work
in Yamhill county for Reed & Ladd
It was during the harvest time that he
was given a place feeding a thresher. All
the other men on the machine were of
large stature and Thomas, rather dim
inutive, thought he could not work
with such powerful men, but to the sur
prise of all fed faster and got more
grain out of the machine per minute
than any other man, and Mr. Ladd
hearing that he came from Clackamas
bounty always called him "Clackamas"
to distinguish him from the large men
who couldn't do the work he could.
Daniel Geher and T. H. Davis re
turned this week from a two months'
outing in Northern Idaho, where they
went surveying with the Rands broih
ers. The young men have an exciting
story which they to d the Courier-Herald
.reporter. It is about a narrow es
cape from falling timber. One night
about 11 o'clock they were camped in a
narrow gulch in the mountains when a
violent wind storm arose. The wind
blew with such virulency that the great
trees for acres around began to fall, and
the boys were obliged to seek a place of
safety. Before they bad arisen from
their sleep several large trees had fallen
close to the foot of their beds, and two,
of the boys narrowly escaped being
crushed to death. In one lot of 20 acres,
where the timber was tall and green, the
wind blew down every foot of the timber,
leaving the entire strip bare of all vege
tation. Several squatter cabins were
completely lost under the fallen timber,
and one man was struck on the foot by
a heavy tree, which pinned him down
until assistance came and released him
from hie shoe.
