at the bead of Beaver Creek. With

pecting to return home the same
night. ; In doe time a portion of the
party put in an appearance, -. but
Chappell and his friend failed to re
turn., t Neither did they appear the
following.'day, nor the night there
after. , Intense alarm was felt ; at
the family home, . and a . searching
party was Sent out. On the third
day however, the missing men tur
ned up, alive and well but some
what the worse for .their ; hard ex
perience. : -
It turned out, that they had be
come beiwldered in the woods, and
were unable to find their way out.
There was considerable snow .on the
ground, which likewise added 1 to
the uncomfortable character of their
situation. , They 'wandered about
however, until they finally reached
a cabin on the - headwaters of the
Alsea, haying strayed a long way
out of their course. There, they
obtained food and rest,; and were
pnt on a trail that led them again
into the settlement, whence ia due
time they were able to reach home.
Mr. Chappell is a years 'otge.
He resides with his parents on what
was formerly the 1 Bethers place,
near Inavale. He was in Corvallis
a day or two ago.
