Since punning the 65-foot murk, aev eral hiiiiiII auliterrati'-au atreama were encounla-rl, but none that gave a auffli-leut volume of water. Drilling waa continued, however, until tho 2!i0 foot level waa reached. Thla waa the original llmll let by the apeclul water committee; but aa no adequate aupply wa reached at that dep'h, (ho diamond Milut wna aet to work again, and ten more feet were bored. No witter being reached at that depth operalona were aunpnded, and the apeclul committee that bin the work In charge will rcort to the council Monday nli;ht, when It will be decid ed wh"thrr or not further drilling la to be tried In the nine locality. - The alto of the teat well waa "loc' ed by Hobert I Heck, coimultlng cngi mx-r for the city In ronn!dcrah!o Im provement work. Mr. Dl.M-k waa of the opinion that water ought to be found at thla point, but either hla coinpiitatlona were Incorrect, or ele ufflcient depth haa not been reached by th drill. In order to experiment at tbla point the city obtained an op tion from the lidd to the property, with the underatandlng that Oregon City could purchaae tiie tract at roa amiable ternia alio u Id water be found. Several other location were aet forth In Mr. Olcck'a report aa being likely to He over water, but property own era who controlled theae other apota placed an unreasonably high valua tion upon their land.

Mr. Lee an Id hla aHaoclatca were willing to pipe the water to the reaervolr alte In Oregon City, and In return wanted to per cent of the local water revenue. The offer, made to the council, waa laid on the table pending experimen tation at the I-add tract. With tha apparent failure of the Mt. Pleasant local Urn a a aource. It la likely that negotiations will be re-opened with Mr. tee, but It la aald unofficially that ba will bave to materially re duce hla term before his offer la ac cepted. The matter will be brought before the council formally on Wednesday night. 1 drilling on the tadd tract la not reaunH'd, II la possible tint the council will decide to condemn one of the otlwr poaslhle aourcea of aup ply. and ao utilize It for the city at a leaa cort than the present owner ask. The need for a better water supply than the present one la urgently felt, and It la not believed that action on the mutter will be delayed much longer. MINISTER PROVES EXPERT AT I E Thla la a little atory of two horse tradera nnd a minister. Alao It la the atory of a balky horse. And of virtue being It own reward. Some yeara ago a certain horse dealer In Oregon City sold to a min ister a horse, warranted sound, gentle and a willing worker. The good nun later took the ateed to hla home, and en route discovered that the animal while excellent In appearance, aomo what belled his looks, and balked. In the months that followed the horse and the mlnlater had many a session that wna painful to them both, but in the long run the minister found that hla faith and power of exhortation atood him well, and the beastle be came tractable. Some time after this the horae denier who sold the divine tie steed told a fellow trader that he guessed he'd "stuck himself by unloading that horse on the Rov. Fourthly, for the critter seems aa tractable aa a lamb, and Is doing great work." The fellow trader bore thla confesalon In mind, and In due time met the min ister, who lives quite a waya out of Oregon City, and offered to buy the horse. The mlnlater did not appear to want to sell. The trader raised hi bid. until finally his figure topped that which the divine had originally paid, and the deal was completed. The trader drove away hnppy. the minister was happy, and apparently the homo wa happy.- Thla waa laat week. Tuesday the telephone rang In the mlnlster'a house, and a voice over the wire aald: Hello, Rev. Fourthly? This la Hlank, the horse trador who bought that blaukety-dnsh black brute of you last week. I got him out on the road with a man I was going to sell him to, and he's bnlked and won't move. How In blazes do you start him when he takes root this way?" "You bought the horse, dldnt you." the minister Is reported to have re plied. "Well, I bought him once. too. Now find out what I did.'' Admiral Walnwrljht Orator SCRANTON, Pa.. May 30.

T. Maes to have sufficient deputies on hand to keep people from the structure, save such aa might actually have to cross the bridge to get to their homes, or on business. Thla acUon waa taken to promt all possibility of an accident during the motorboat races between the Va moose and the Oregon Wolf II., the two fastest motorboats on the Pacific coast. These craft will meet In a speed trial here at four o'clock in the afternoon Saturday, and It la expect ed there will be thousands of people on hand to see the race. While as an actual fact, the race can be seen to greatest advantage either from tho docks In the lower end of the city, or from the weat aide short.

To prevent any overcrowding of t aa bridge, and also to prevent throngs running across it from causing the structure to sway, the county court believed It best to close the bridge to any bnt necessary traffic. In this way all danger of accident will be removed, and spetators will be actual ly forc-?d to seak better vantage points from which to view the con test.

I think there ought to be a closer relation be tween the school and the home, I be lieve in 'home credits' In fact, and I believe that by doing such work s you are doing here you are taking great strides towards that end. Yon are Interesting the children, you are making them regard their studies as something necessary in their lives, and because of this you are making a direct appeal to the parents and the home through the school children. "This is why we want your exhibit is planning this school fair at Salem to carry on this work of bringing the home and the school into closer touch. This u why we want your exhibit, we want paople to see It, we want Ch er children to see It so that they wl!l want the same things In their locality.
