In aplto of the Inclemency of the
weather about fifty grangera, ataunch
and true, met at their hall In Oawego
and the offlcera of both the grange
and juvenile grange were Inatalled on
Saturday, January 14. Prof. (lary. our
county euperlntendent, acted aa In

Mra. C. T. Plrkenaon and Mr Lane.
Mra. iJino haa teen a very efficient

Perhapa It la not generally known
that -any children between the agea
of 6 ond . 14 can Join the Juvenile
grange, whether their parent belong
or not. by the payment of a amall foe
and obeying tho rulea and regulatlona
laid down. Ita teachlnga tend to up
lift and form good tralta of character
which wtll go with them Into the. buoy
acenea of manhood and womanhood.
Prof. Gary, among other good thlnga,
aald when he waa aaked to Inatall tho
offlcera of Oawego Orange, and Ita
Juvenile grange, he felt glad to tie able
to do It and (old the atory of tho man
who aearchod tho world over for tbo
bod of dlamonda, and they were found
at hla own door. Therefore we may
not have to look to the Far Ka8t-for
tho great and good : they may be grow
ing up In Oawego Juvenile grange.
The profcaaor, who haa been a auc
ceaaful teacher for a numler of yeara,
clalma never to have aeen ft bad hoy.
The juvenile grange haa an organ
and have varloua exerclaea dear to tho
heart of every boy and girl, and the
time paaaea quickly for them. -
The have their own orflcera of IS
who carry on the meetlnga under the

have their separate table In the dining
room, a trifle better laden, perhapa
Hhnn the other.

Thla aectlori has been visited by
one of tho heaviest ralnfatla consider
ing the abort apace of time that It
rained heavily In Its history, and tbo
depth of. water on certain atreeta In
thla city waa great. The rain began
Tuesday and by Wednesday there waa
no uncertainty aa to (Is earneatneap.
The ralna fell up tho river, down the
river and to both sides of the river.
At times the water came down In
sheeta and the alreela were at reams
of swiftly moving waters. Added to
this was (he lurge volume of snow on
the ..tilllaldea that un ited with the
rain. -.
TronbleTiycgan at an early hour Wed
nesday, but not until ThondH7waa
there disturbance of consequence In
the traffic arrangements of raliwaye
entering thla city. Hut during tho
greater part Of Thursday and Thure
day night traffic waa greatly Inter
rupted and to a large extent expend
ed. ' r- r- -- -
There was a two-foot ralae at Eu
gene early lit' the trouble. Thla was
no larger from the fact there waa little
snow In that section to melt and the
bed of the stream had to carry only
the rainfall. The first raise In thla
city waa In oonaequence only In
fluenced by tho iwlvy ralna!
Many of fna flreams of the county
are overflowing their banka and have
done aerloua damage to property. The
Clear Creek bridge at Flacher'a Mill
went out Wednesday afternoon. There
Is no confirmation of this disaster but
as It la an old bridge, and haa alood
many vlaclaaltudes, the report la con
sidered as truest had a span of from
60 to 70 feet ..TV . . '
The AbernathYUi this city la greatly
swollen by the besvy and continued
downpour, and a few of the residents
near f ifteenth and Washington atreeta

bad slide on the Abcmathy .road going
to liedland, and the river road on the
east ajde of the - Clackamas la Im

aeveral of the main roada In the coun
ty. The brldgo extending over the
gulch at Fourteenth and Madiaon
atreeta la unsafe, and it nas oeen
closed to pedeatrlsca and teams.
On Twelfth- street, near Washington,
the city aewer, a large one, gave way,
causing a man of waters beneath the
newly filled atreet. which resulted In
a cave-In of about IS feet In depth.
On thla aame atreet, but nearer the
railroad track, the newer broke In
another place, causing another rush of.
watera overflowing the flat beneath
the railroad track. Dy the buratlng of
tho sewer on Twelfth street, near
Washington, It haa cauaed the lower
part of the property of Mra, Mary
Harlow to become a lake.
The bridge at Oawego haa been
closed to traffic. It having been ao bad

every precaution be taken.
Aa a result of the continued heavy
ralna a landslide occurred In tho yard
of '.Mra. Rlcharda, who resides on

The bridge' extending across the
Abernethy Creek near Maple Lane to
tho farma of Cnlgar, Morris and Heat

of the fencea In that vicinity are also
gone. .
George Tftrown, one ' of tho well
known residents of Maple Lane, states
that during Tuesday and Wednesday
of thla week 94 Inches of rain fell at
Maple tane. Thla la the hew vie t
rainfall known In that vicinity for
many yeara, and caused all of the
amall streams there to become raging

Much damage haa been done on the
South End road near Canemah Park.

overflowed Ita banks, and tbo watera
of that at ream bav never been known

Mill at Mullno. Tho water on the road
at the mill la over two feet deep, and
the smaller wagon bridge at thar point

to complete his , trip to thla city,
crooned tbe bridge without mlxbap.
