A BOY'S ACCIDENT.
Youth
Displays Rare
and Grit.
Coolness
A very peculiar accident happened on
the farm of John South in the Forks last
Saturday. Some wild horses were beinir
caught with a sixty foot rawhide lassoo.
One of the animals was successfully las
sooed, when the 14-year-old son of Mr.
South sprang forward to help hold the
horse. In some manner tte lassoofrot
around the leg of the boy and he was
dragged at full speed two hundred yards,
when the horse turned around a large
stump, slinging young South against it
with terrific force, enough to break the
strong rawhide rope and leave him lying
there. With rare presence of mind' the
boy had clasped his hands behind his
head to protect it One of his legs was
broken at the thigh and the other.around
which the rope had been caught was
badly bruised and cut. Dr. Wallace of
this city was telegraphed for in time to
catch the Saturday train for Munkers,
wnere a team awaited him and he reach
ed the scene aiter several changes of

setting without a cry, displaying the
same grit that he displayed Curing the

The closing entertainment by the
ALPS quwtet. given unJer the aus
pices of the Epworth League of the M. E.
church, at the opera house, Saturday
night was attended by a fair sized and
very appreciative audience. The songs
of the members of the qu-rtet, in chorus
and in polos were of high order and
sustained their splendid reputation as
entertainers. Besides the selections by
the quaitet.enthujiasticly received, Miss
Verl Sacrey brought the house down in

a warm encore prettily. A duet by Mr.
Poling and .Miss Bertha Ellis was a fine
number, receiving a lively encore. This
quartet will be long remembered in A 1-

The Elks Exctbsiox to the Bay yes
terday was participated in by about two

the second car Oregon Pacific, the third

ing fact that the engineer and conduct
or on the special Salem train were O C &
b. men. The day was a pleasant one
and the clam bake a success.
One of the incidents of the day was the
capsizing of Harry Hogue, Chas. Medin
and Henry Kursch. The crowd was just
starting from Newport and were filling
the big boat Hogue and Medin jumped
into a skiff that was to be trailed behind.
Kursch concluded to join them. In his
endeavor to gt in the boat it was upset
and all Hogue was tipped into the icy
waters of the Bay. His friends helped
him out, but he had to come ail the
way home in a soaked and chilly condi
tion.

TUESDAY
THE CRABTREE COLONY.
The big colony that was recently lo
cated on the Crabtree, five miles above
Scio, is attracting a good deal of atten
tion. The following :rom the Oregonian,
evidently suggested by tbe surveyor.wbo
resides in Portland, is an excellent ac
count of the situation :
Tbe advance guard of the St Michael's
colony.w hich purchased some 2500 scree
of land about four miles southeast of
Scio, will arrive here in September. It
will consist of some 40 to 50 young men,
who will sqnara things around and pur
chase homes for the main body of colo
nists when they arrive. The colony
comprises about 120 families, of German
Austrians principally, numbering in all
abnut 700 persons. They come from
Minnesota and Dakota, and some from
South Bend, Ind., where thiy were em
poyed in the Studebaker works, now
closed down
The lands purchased by tbe colony
comprise the donation land'claims ot R.
Shelton, Thomas Pitchford and William
Cyrus, situated on the north side of the
Crabtree fork of tbe Santiam river, in
that classic region between the forks of
the Sant,am, and est en I back from
Crabtree fork to a spur of the Cascade.
Some 1060 acres of the land has been
sur?eyed by A. Ohlhoff, of this city, and
6S3 acres which have teen in cultivation
have been laid out by him in 15 to 20
acre tracts. Tbe land' back of these sur
veyed tracts to tbe spur ol the Cascades
is left for pastnrage and timber land, and
on it there is eome fine timber. On tne
line between the tract for cultivation
and tbe pasture Unds hss been laid out
a site for a village. The building lots
are 100x100 feet, and in the rear of each
ia a garden plot 100x100. There is a plot
provided for a general store, and a saw
mill and grist mill, for the operation of
which plenty of water power can be ob
tained by running ditch from Crabtree
fork.
Tbe colony is not to Le run op tbe
community plan exactly. Each family
will nave tne product of its own tract ot
land. The tract cultivated are not to be
fenced, but are marked by iron pipes at
the corners, and plowing can be carried
on across the whole, but each raises
what he pleases on bis own tract for hia
own benefit. Tbe colonists intend to
cultivate principally prunes and bops,
and probably will not import butter or
eggs or bacon or mucti of anything need
ed for subsistence.
Tbe lands of the colony are situated in
a beautiful, fertile section, the soil bsing
clay loam, in parts not cultivated cover
ed with a growth of hardwood brush.oak.
maple, ash, alder, etc., except of course
tne nill on the nortn, where there is One
fir timber. The growth and prosperity
of this colony will be watched with much
interest, and tbe result will give an idea
of what the W illamette valley may be
come when tbe donation claims are di
vided into small farms and settled upon
by thrifty, hard-working people.

A Prospect That Looms Up High
What In It.
Jas Cornell, tho little old Eeglish
miner, who recently obtained consider
able notoriety by marrying a Sodaville
widow and having divorce proceedings
begun against him all within about a
month, was in Albany todav with some-
fine "prospects," prospects which if aa
represented mean that there is a mine
two miles beyond Sodaville on the farm
of W. W. Parish of immense wealth. The
Edna is the name applied to tbe mine.
The p'ospect consists of a button of gofa,
a vial of copper, a vial of tin, a vial of
telurinm, a bar of tlurium and some
ore Mr Cornell estimates that the pro
portion rf metal would be : Go d 35 per
cent, tin 35 per cent, copper 2 per cent,
te.urium 10 per cent. He estimate the
gold at $200 per ton. The value of telnr
lum he sivee at $000 a pound, nearly
three times that of gold. Take your
pencil, or just your head will be enough,
and there is a mining proposition for
yon, beside which the beat in Montana
is common.
The ore was undoubtedly taken from
the Edna as represented, and the metal
taken out a staled The Dkmocsat
give tbe fact a presented. The pub
lic must be its ?wn jrdge.
W by not a rich mine at Sodaville as
well as anywhere.
It will do no barm to keep your eye on
tbe Edna even though being prospected
by a tramp miner, somewhat under, a
cloud socially.
