LITTLE GIRL WRITES
Of SEVERE STORM
Marie Holmes, daughter of W, A.
Holmes. who, with her mother Is visit
ing In lxiliauon, has written her sla
ter Myrtle, an Interesting letter des
cribing a severe storm there a few
days ago. The letter concludes:
"Grandfather was throwing some
wheat to the chickens when a wind
Just tore around, and bad a whirl
wind In the barn yard. Then a few
drops of rain fell, then hail as big as
marbles just peppered down. It
broke three windows on the west
side. If you would carry bucket full
after bucket full and pour In Allie s
room you couldn't make the carpet
any wetter.
"Why Myrtle, glass Just flew around
the window blinds were just shatter
ed. Grandpa has to go to town this
morning and get Ave panes of glass
for the windows you ought to see
the garden; the corn Is just ruined.
The mushmelon vines were torn out
of the ground. Also the squash vines
were torn out. The plums knocked
off the trees, the grape vines strip
ped. They have bushels and bushels
or beans torn out of their sheila and
laying on the ground. Little guineas
are missing. Apples and peaches
knocked off from the trees.
"Grandpa's house was in the worst
of It I guess. The storm Just went
In a streak. The climate of Oregon
Is surely changed from what It used
to be. No one Is Injured but lots
of damage was done."

FARM IN THIS COUNTY
J. W. Patton. of Portland, known as
the "Pop Corn King," has Invested his
savings In an 87-acre tract In the Gar--field
district In Clackamas County,
near Estacada, for which he paid $11.
000. The tract was owned by Stokes
& Wooster. The land Is partly set to
fruit, 1G acres being In apples. It Mr.
Paulson's plan to plant more apple
trees at once.
If Mr. Patlson had depended entire
ly on the sale of pop corn to acquire
money to buy this tract. It Is figured
out that at five cents a bag it would
have required the disposition of 220.
000 bags. If he bad sold pop corn at
the rate of 500 bags a day, it would
have taken 440 days to have enough
money from this scource to buy the
place.

SCHOOL OFFICERS.
MUCH PROCRESS SHOWN IN COUNTY
Four or Flvs New Buildings Have
Been Erected, and the Outlook
For a Banner Year Wss
Never Better.
County School Superintendent
Gary on Saturday received the first
reports from the new supervisors who
have already been out In their dis
tricts looking over the school build
ings and grounds arid requiring that
the buildings and grounds be ready
and In first class shape before school
begins.
All the supervisors report that they
have been very kindly received by
the people In their districts and
verywhere considerable repair work
Is being done and ground put In bet
ter shape for the winter's work.
A number of schools will open to
morrow, some of them being Kelso,
Deep Creek, Welch's, Liberal and Jen
nings Lodge. Superintendent Gary
reports that there will be 100 per
cent more male teachers In the coun
ty than any year heretofore. This Is
a remarkable showing and deserves
riotlce.
At Welch's and Alms new buildings
are being constructed, also at two or
three more places. The supervisors
and teachers are expecting a con
siderable Increase In the attendance
this year, but little can be learned
about thia till school has actually
started.
The spelling and mathematical
competition Is arousing much Inter
est, especially the spelling contest.
Many of the country teachers are
planning to have their schools enter
the competition and It Is probable
that all the schools In the county will
be entered. The rules of the competi
tion may be had on application to the
office of Superintendent Gary. Su
perintendent and supervisors are all
well pleased at the outlook. Many
teachers are already at their posts
ready to commence work.

"It was nothing; It was my duty,
and I would hate myself If I hadn't
done It," declared Walter Scott, of
Kansas City, Mo., who risked hla life
and was bruised considerably Friday
afternoon while stopping a runaway
horse attached to a buggy In which
were a woman and her two little chil
dren. Mr. Scott, with dresssutt case
In hand, was standing at the corner
of Twelfth and Main streets waiting
for a car to Portland, when he notic
ed the runaway coming down the
street at a rapid rate of speed. The
mother and her babies were scream
ing at the top of their voices. Hurl
ing the sultoase aside, Mr. Scott ran
to the middle of the street, and, as
the galloping steed reached him, be
seized its bridle. The hero was
thrown to his feet and dragged for a
half block, but he did not let loose
his hold, and finally stopped the ani
mal. The woman and ber babies
were taken from the vehicle and a
crowd gathered around Mr. Scott to
offer congratulations. Ilia clothing
was torn and his hat was badly bat
tered, but he said he did not care,
and after declaring that he had done
nothing extraordinary, boarded a
streetcar for Portland. Mr. Scott had
been a guest for several days of Wil
liam Clark.
D. C. Robblns, of the Oregon Com
mission Company, saw Mr. Scott
when, he stopped the runaway.
"It was the most thrilling and
heroic act I ever witnessed," said Mr.
Robblns.
CITY AND COUNTY AT
WAR OVER ROADIBILL
Trouble Is brewing between
Oregon City and Clackamas Coun
ty. The city, through City At
torney Story, submitted a claim . of
$2,700 to the County Court, said to
be the city's share of the $35,000 set
aside by the county for the liquida
tion of road warrants. It was con
tended by the court that the amount
was excessive and the bill was re
ferred to Chief Deputy Sheriff Siaats
to Investigate. He has reported that
the city is entitled to only $1,700, and
the County Court will not allow more
than this sum. City Attorney Story
Is confident the bill he submitted Is
correct and he proposes to fight for
the money.

ARE TO BE LIGHTED
The Willamette council at a meet

at the next meeting of the council.
The town formerly was supplied with
lights by the Willamette Falls Com

result the thriving Oregon City su
