HUTCKOfJ FAMILY
GOMES
TO PORTLAND
Body of Aviator Killed in Fall
Sent to Walla Walla.
PLANE WRECKAGE GUARDED
Curious Crowds Visit Scene of Acci
dent Near Eastmoreland, Where
Two Met Instant Death.
Tho first intimation that the mem
bers of W. B. Hutchinson's family
had of his tragic death, when his air
Plane crashed to earth near Eastmore
land, was from the Walla Walla morning-
newspaper, which advised the
family of what had happened.
Mr. Hutchinson's mother, sister, wife,
mother-in-law and father-in-law ar
rived in Portland yesterday from Walla
Walla, and were met by his aunt, Mrs.
R. P. Riggs of Dallas, Or., who was in
Portland while the tragedy took place.
Just an hour before Mr. Hutchinson
fell, Mrs. Kiggs and her friend, Mrs.
Inez M. Eckerson, C41 East Salmon
street, had visited him. He had prom
ised to take them flying before he left
on his four-hour flight to Walla Walla
yesterday, as he intended.
No inquest was held over Hutchin
son's body, which was sent to Walla
Walla last night for burial.
P. H. Hester, Mr. Hutchinson's
father-in-law. is staying in Portland
endeavoring to find out In what company
Hutchinson had insured the luckless
plane. Mr. Hutchinson told his aunt,
Mrs. Eckerson said, that he had fully
Insured the Curtiss machine.
The body of Sergeant John Milkow.
ski still remained at the morgue await
ing instructions from the army as to
what disposition is to be made. Dep
uty coroners said that every bone in
both bodies was broken, even the
small bones in the hands being reduced
to a pulp.
Wreckage Is- Guarded.
Prompted by curiosity, scores of
Portland residents yesterday visited
the point near the Eastmoreland munic
ipal golf course, where the aviators
met death Friday evening when
Hutchinson's plane dropped several
hundred feet and was demolished on
the cement sidewalk.
Army officers In charge of the East
moreland aviation field did not burn
wreckage of the plane, as originally
intended, but a police officer was sta
tioned at the scene of the accident to
prevent souvenir-collectors from carry
ing it away piecemeal.
Stories regarding the cause of the
accident, told by eyewitnesses, vary
as to details, but in the main are sim
ilar. Students See Fatal Dive.
Several Reed college students saw
the maneuvers of Mr. Hutchinson's air
plane over Eastmoreland, including the
fatal nose dive. The plane crossed over
the campus at the height of 400 feet,
made a wide detour over Eastmoreland
and swung back toward the golf links,
doing somie stunts on the way.
It was just before dinner-time at
Reed and a number of men were on the
lawn watching the plane. Suddenly the
nose of the plane curved gracefully
downward for a nose dive, from which
it was never altered. Just before it
passed out of sight behind some trees
it appeared to be righting, but side
slipped and crashed with such force
that the sound carried to the Reed
campue.
Pilot's Optimism Recalled.
Walter Hessert, Otto Schultz, Will
Stone and Walter Peterson reached the
fallen jflane a few minutes after seeing
it drop.
Two hours before students had visited
the field and as the plane was not
guarded by army men, had entered into
conversation with Mr. Hutchison. At
the time he was putting the plane in
order for the evening's flight and
seemed quite optimistic. He jokingly
refused to let anyone go up with him.
He mentioned the fact that he intended
using the plane on his farm near Walla
Walla and scouted the idea of any
danger. Sergeant Milkowski was tight
ening stays.
One of the army mechanics, when
asked if he was going to fly with Mr.
Hutchinson, said emphatically. "Not if
I know it, it's best to take no chances
in this business."
HUTCHIXSOX WED YEAR AGO
Wife' at father's Ranch Awaiting
Descent of Husband In Plane.
WALLA WALLA, Wash.. June 14.
(Special.) W. B. Hutchinson, killed in
an airplane accident at Portland, was
24 years of age and was married about
a year ago to TVIiss Lucile Hester,
daughter of a rancher near Dayton.
For a time Mr. Hutchinson was
assistant in the United States weather
office. Then he enlisted in the avia
tion branch and was trained at Rock
well Field, California, receiving his
commission as a lieutenant. He was
known as a careful flyer and was de
tailed as an instructor. Mr. Hutchin
son took part in the big air circus at
San Diego prior to his discharge. He
bought the plane to go into commercial
flying and had made a number of con
tracts with fairs for flights this fall.
He was also planning to pilot a plane
which Tom Drumhelier, a well-known
rancher and sheep owner, has ordered.
Mr. Hutchinson was the eldest eon
of Mrs". Sylvia Hutchinson, a widow of
Walla Walla. He has a brother and
sister living here.
At the time of his death his wife was
at her father's ranch, near Dayton,
where preparations were being made
for him to alight in a large alfalfa
field.

WOOLEN MILL HISTORY IS
GIVEN BY OLD RESIDENTS
J. C. Hayter Writes of Dallas Mill and Reuben P. Boise of the El I end ale
Mill and of Incidents Attending Their Early-Day Careers.
BT ADDISON BENNETT.
(Tenth article.)
IN MY last article Sunday I stated
that the next article in this series
would deal with the Portland
Woolen mills. But since that was writ
ten I have received two very interest
In:? and illuminating letters, which are
hereto appended as my tenth install
ment. The letter from Mr. Hayter clears up
the facts about the second Dallas mill,
and as Mr. Hayter is an old resident of
that town, where he conducted, , and
very successfully, a newspaper ' for
many years, his statements can be re
lied upon as facts taken from first
hands.
The letter of Reuben P. Boise", son of
the founder of the KUendalc or as
often spoken of. the first Dallas mill,
is one of intense interest. Mr. Boise
not only tells all about the old mill, but
throws in a very interesting story
about the old O'Neil-Nesmith gristmill,
the site of which became the site of
the woolen mill. Mr. Boise's letter is a
charming historical contribution, and
coming unsolicited as it did it is highly
gratifying to the writer hereof, as it
shows the interest taken in this woolen
mill history.
Let us hope that others will, like Mr.
Boise and Mr. Hayter, come to our
rescue and give facts about many of the
other mills, such as the various
Brownsville mills, and the Bandon,
Waterloo. Albany and Ashland mills.
There seems to be a dearth of informa
tion about all of these plants, yet they
existed not so long ago but what many
of those who knew much about them
are still living, and some of the work
men in those of comparatively recent
date must be living and able to write
the facts.
The Oregonian would be pleased to
have many such letters, and is hopeful
of receiving some of them soon.
The Dallas Woolen Mill.
By J. C. Hayter. Dallas.
Our experience in the woolen mills
business is a string upon which we fid
dle very lightly up here in Dallas, for
the fate of this institution marks the
only failure of importance in the long
history of the town's many industries.
The disastrous ending of the enterprise
was not caused by the fraud and selfish
greed that has wrecked so many small
town corporations, but rather was the
result of lack of foresight in neglect
ing to raise sufficient money to pay
operating expenses while establishing
a market and placing the mill on a pay
ing basis.
The Dallas Woolen Manufacturing
company was incorporated November
28, 1891. The incorporators were w. -.
Brown. John J. Daly. M. M. Ellis. Peter
Allison and A. K. Wilson, all residents
of Dallas. The capital stock was $50,
000. Machinery and equipment were
purchased from an idle mill in Santa
Rosa, CaL, and Installed in a three
story frame building near the South
ern Pacific railway tracks on the south
bank of the LaCreole river. The in
stallation of the machinery was super
vised by Peter Allison, a woolen mill
man of many years' experience.
The mill never was operated by the
original company. Payment for the
machinery having absorbed all of the
money derived from the sale of stock,
the new concern found itself embas
rassed from the very beginning by lack
of operating capital. Suits' by creditors
followed and the mill was tied up by
litigation for several years.
About the year 1896 the plant was
leased to James Shaw of Oregon City,
and was operated by him until 1S9S,
when he made an assignment for the
benefit of his creditors, Charles Strat
ton and R. C. Craven being named as
assignees. Meanwhile. the building
and machinery had been purchased out
right by certain local stockholders and
a few months after the Shaw failure
the plant was sold to Fred Carter,
Charles Carter and William Walker
for a mere fraction of its original cost.
The new company operated the mill
about three years and then dismantled
the plant and shipped the machinery
to Sellwood, where attractive induce
ments had been offered.
The mill building was purchased by
LaCreole academy and used as a
students' gymnasium for several years.
Later it was totally destroyed by fire.
The Ellendale Mill's History.
BY REUBEN P. BOISE.
I noticed an article in The'Oregonian
of Sunday last from my old friend, Ben
S. Worsley, in which he tells eomewhat
of the history of the Ellendale woolen
mills, located three miles west of Dal
las. Polk county. Thinking that some
m&re facte as "to that undertaking
might be of interest, I send the follow
ing: The mill building was located on the
historic epot where Ellendale creek
flows into the Rickreall river, where
had stood the O'Neil-Nesmith grist mill,
erected by James A. O'Neil In the wln
ter of 1844-45; sold by him to J. W. Nes-

raith and Henry Owens In the fall of
1S50. then by them to John . and Will
iam P. Lewis in the spring; of 1SS6. In
November, 1857, Lewis Bros, ceased to
operate the mill, cold its machinery and
moved their store that they ran in con
nection with the mill to Dallas. In
December, 1863, they sold the mill site,
water power and adjacent land to my
father. Judge Reuben P. Boise, whose
donation land claim adjoined the prop
erty. The old dismantled grist mill
building remained standing; until the
summer of 1865, when it was torn down
to make way for the erection of the
woolen mill building:. I have digressed
some to mention this grist mill that has
a history of its own that appeals to the
old west-siders from the northern end
of Yamhill county to the southern end
of Lane county, as it was their first
grist mill.
The articles of Incorporation of the
Ellendale Mill company were filed with
the se'eretary of state- December 19,
1864. The incorporators 'were John
Worsley. Reuben P. Boise and Joseph
Watt. The capital stock of the com
pany was first placed at $10,000. after
wards It was increased to $20,000, then
to J30.000. and finally to $100,000. The
names of the first stockholders are as
follows: Reuben P. Boise, James W.
Nesmith. Joseph Watt, John Worsley,
Benjamin Simpson. Mary K. Haliock,
F. W. P. Huntington. T. McF. Patton,
Franklin Yocom, Isaac Levins and John
Taylor. In addition to the names above
written the following were at various
times stockholders in the enterprise:
Asa Shreve, M. L. Bobbins, S. M. Cooke,
Albert O. Yates. B. McAlpin, E. G. Bolter
and James T. Wortley. During the en
tire existence of the corporation my
father was its president. The follow
ing were the secretaries, elected in the
order in which the names appear: John
Worsley, Charles Moor and E. G. Bolter.
The superintendents of the mill -were
John Worsley, Charles Moor and James
T. Wortley.
The stockholders and the officers
mentioned all have passed away except
Albert O. Yates, who I understand is
now Mving in Portland.
I well remember witnessing In 1865
the tearing down of the old grist mill
and the erection of the factory build
ing. The mill did not get in operation
until late in 1866 .owing to a lot of
hard luck. The first shipment of part
of the machinery was lost In the sink
ing of the steamer Brother Jonathan,
on. its rrn from San Francisco to Port
land. Then there" was great delay in
getting this lost machinery replaced.
I have In my possession letters received
by my father from J. W. Nesmith. who
looked after the purchase of the ma
chinery, written from Washington,
D. C-, and College Hill, O., at which
latter place Mr. Nesmlth's family re
sided a part of the time he was in the
United States senate, telling the story
of delay by the Brldsburg Manufactur
ing company of Philadelphia, Pa.. In
getting the machinery made. It seemed
that this company was more anxious to
hurry up the orders of eastern manu
facturers than It was to get out com
paratively small orders for a far-away
Oregon concern.
Most of the employes of the factory
were Englishmen who had received
their training in the old country. They
understood their business, and a good
Quality of cloth was turned out. Among
those who worked in the factory were
Thomas Kay Sr., Jonathan Hill. Jim
Kennedy, Tom Richardson, Tom Graves,
Ensley M. Dawson, William Blanchard,
William Worsley, Tom Burrows. George
Medley and Ben S. Worsley. The lat
three named are the sole survivors
of this band of millmen who worked at
one time or another in about all of the
pioneer woolen mills. Mr. Burrows now

Famous In A Day For Her
Beautiful Complexion,
Oatmeal Combination Does It
A Free Prescription Does Its Work
Overnight You Can Prepare
It at Your Home.
Kew York: It 1s my own discovery and it
takes just on night to fft ituch marvelous
results, say Mae Edna Wilder, when her
friends ask her about her wonderful com
plcxion and the Improved appearance of her
hands and anus. You can do the aame thine
if you follow my advice, she says: I feel it
my duty to tell every Irl and woman what
this wonderful prescription did for me. I
never tire of telling others Just what brought
about such remarkable results. Here is the
identical prescription that removed every de
fect from my face. neck, hands and arms.
Until you try it you can form no idea of the
marvelous change it will make in just one
application. The prescription which you can
prepare at your own home is as follows: Go
to u-ny grocery and get ten cents worth of
ordinary oatmeal, and from any drug store
a bottle of derwillo. Prepare the oatmeal
as directed tn every package of derwillo and
apply night and morning. The first applica
tion will MKtnniuh vou. It makes the uk in
I appear transparent smooth and velvety, X
especially recommend It for fre. klea, tan,
sun spots, coarbe pores, rough skin, ruddi
ness, wrinkle, and. In fact, every b!eiuih
ih face, hands and arms are heir to. If
your neck or chest is discolored from ex
posure, apply this combination there and
the objecti on able defect will disappear. J t
is absolutely harmless and will not produce
or stimulate a growth of hair. No matt-r
how rough and ungainly the hands and
arms, or what abuses they have had through
hard work and exposure to aun and wind,
this oatmeal-Uerwillo combination will work
a wonderful transformation in 12 hours at
