All Night Woes of Telephone Hen
The Rain Beat and Winds
Blew.
Two men sitting in a buggy, try
ing to sleep the n'ght a'ay on the
summit of Alsea mountain, inky
darkness all around,- the sighing
and meaning of a heavy wind that
came and went in fitful gusts,
and the patter of a pitiless rain,
that was a scene about seven o'clock
in the early hours of last Saturday
night. It was indeedr a melan
choly occasion for 'neither the men
nor their team had had a mouth
ful of food since a slender lunch at
noon. It was melancholy, and yet
it was amusing for "both travelers
came out of' their " troubles, "when
they ate a good breakfast in Cor
vallis at 10 o'clock the" following
morning, nearly V24V hours . since
they had tasted food.
The men were W. D. DeVarney
and Superintendent Lowe. They
had been in' Alsea on ;rural tele
phone business. They stirred from
there at four o'clock figuring that
they would have two hours of day-
Jight, in which time they would
get over the mountain.'.
It was dark at nve it was
darker than a stack of black cats at
half oast five. It was worse, if
worse could be, at six, ana ' about
that time Lowe gave up the , reins
to his companion and crawled out
of the buggy to see where the r-'ad
was, or if, in fact, there was a road
at all. There are precipices, grades,
narrow places and steep pitches on
that road, but the travelers pressed
It was about seven o'clock when
the horses suddenly stopped. They
refused to budge, and Lowe for the
129th time crawled out to recon
noitre. It was a stump- It rose
up cheer in front of the team and it
was impossible to go ahead, ' But
the road wen.t on either side - of it,
and DeVarney- attempted to steer.
hu steeds to one side.; Then
horse tell down, got mixed att in
the rigging, and couldn't get up.
Then there was a council of war.
' We'll have to camp here," 're
marked DeVarney. "That's what
I think." said Lowe, whom De
Varney says, had been aching' for
that proposition for more than an
hour. . , ' V'i : - V-."
It was troublesome to unhitch
that horse in the dark. The only
way they could find his head was
to follow the lines and the Only
way they could get aft was to fol
low a tug back- And then there
was fear that the animal might
struggle in the effort to rise, ' and
land an upper cut or a right swing
with his hoot on somebody s jaw.
It took an hour to unhook the
horses and get them hitched to a
tree, 100 yards away.
Then the men couldn't find the
buggy. They passed it a long way
and then bad to turn back. They
walked side by side with their
arms extended to each side, so they
would strike the vehicle as they
passed Remembering that it was so
dark when a-hold of the horses
they couldn't tell the white from
the black, finding their way - in the
hunt for that buggy was ticklish.
But they found it. They had to;
it was their only place to sleep. The
wind blew and the rain beat. Bolt
upright up in the rig with wet
buggy robes about their limbs," sat
the two travelers, and tried to sleep.
The buggy leaned to one side, and
so did they, " The rain pattered
and the wind blew, and ; the two
figures sat, sat, sat, waiting for
dawn, like two barnyard hens
waiting for the eggs to hatch. All
was silonce, but the rain and the
wind.
