There existed about six miles up the
Calipooia river (on what now is the
farm of H. Ohling) at the time of the set
tlement of this valley by the whte
man, a mound grown over with timber,
but plainly showing the mound to have
been the work of an ancient race. The
mound many years ago was cleared of its
tim'jer and for the last sixteen years hag
been in cultivation. It was formerly
about 80 feet long and about 60 feet wide
and probably 10 feet or more in height.
By virtue of its being cultivated and the
consequent washing away of the soil it

burnt earth and beneath the burnt earth
in clay or a clay coffin, was found the re

the early Indians or an aboriginal of this
valley. The skull is in a good state of
preservation owing to the packing of
burnt earth and clay which encompassed
it. In the lower jaw there Is an entire
absence of molar or jaw teeth there be

to Iowa about eighteen months ago, re
turned to Albany this noon, and rejoices
at being in the Willamette valley again.
Mr. Prater on Saturday met with a train
wrecking experience ot'a thrilling char
acter. As the train on the Short Line
crossed a bri Ige at Bliss it struck the
frog of a side track, which bad been mis
plhced, Mr. Pruter thinks because worn
out and defective, though the Oresronian
laid it to tramps. The train was thrown
from the track, the cars mashing into
each other. The smoker received the
brunt of the wreck and was mashed to
oiicss. This was the car in which Mr.
Prater w is ridius. Near him one man
was killed and every other passem.fr but
ooe was bidiyN, Injured, many having
arms broken, faces mashed beyond rec
ognition, etc. Mr Pruter andooe other
man were the or.1 7 ones practically un
injured and they ha 1 sever . 1 small brais
es. Mr. Pruter considered it almost a
miracle that he was cot badly injured.
j he car was so badly broken up that he
conld crawl o'it anywhere. There were
about twelve passengers in this car.
These in she other cars were not injured
much. Tlii? was Mr. Prater's th'r i and
worst train wrecking experience.
