Its Future K Is Assured THAT MONSTER IN CRESCENT LAKE The following Eugene dispatch to the Oregon Journal of recent Uate shows that the minds of people dearly delight in the con tinued belief in something mys , terious and unlikely. This sea serpent story connected with Crescent .Lake has had promi nonce every summer for the past several years: Engene, Or., Sep, 8. Dr. Wood, a Portland physician, and R. L. Lamson, also of Portland, while at Crescent Lake, a large body of water near the summit of the mountains, 100 miles east of Eugene, a few days ago, saw the great seaserpent. or something of the kind, that has been in the waters of the lake for many years. They took . 25 shots at the creature with a rifle, liut they either failed to hit it or the bulletts had no effect, for tho monster simply glared at them with his big round eyes and leisurely glided into deep water. The monster was seen by two Eu gene men five or six years ago. They describe it as having a head as large as that of an ox and its eyes are as big as a silver dollar. It seems to have a long body and tail. It has been seen by a number of others during the pa3t few years, but not often. The Indians who formerly roamed that section of the country, have a tradition about tbe creature, and judging from this, it must have been there before the white man ever came to this part of the country. Dr. Wood aud Mr. Lamson, outfitted for their trip in Eugene and left here on August 13. They went up by way of the old Military road, hunted and fished in the lakes and nearby streams, and then went south to Crater Lake and Medford, shipping their team and wagon lrom there to kugene. iney - returned to Portland from Medford by train. The writer spent a part of the summer of 1909 at Crecent Ujake and at other points in that region and our party heard varied tales of the monster of the lake. While camping at Davis Lake at the Forest Ranger Station, we met Ranger Roy Kern of Eugene, who told us that he had seen the monster at least eight times, once at very short range, and that it was no monster at all but was a great school of small fish swimming near the surface of the lake. Sometimes he said that the school would be a hundred feet or more in length and other times less than 50 feet, He said there is s great similarity in the motion of the fishes swim ming in a body and the motions of a serpent, but that the stories I concerning a large animal, "with a neck 15 feet long," - "with a offices In tho new Railway Exchange building in Portland. Mr. Marvm was at one time tho state land agent for Idaho, and has for many years been connected with the larger timber land companies of the North west. He is an expert on irrigation. "Tho company has not yet been able to complete the appraisement of its large purchase, "said Mr. Marvin. "We are endeavoring to have an inspection made of every acre, and will not begin the running of excursions of settlers until after the Deschutes, tho Oregon Trunk and the Boise & Western rail roads shall have opened 'their lines to travel. "Just at this time our concern is hav ing an investigation made of the irriga ble lands in our district. This will in clude an estimate of all the waters of the territory which may be subject to appropriation and surveys to ascertain what beneficial use may be made of them. "It is probable that the pregon & Western Colonization Company will give considerable attention to the prob lem of irrigation from pumping wells. The Harney Valley, and in fact all the valleys of Central and Southern Oregon are underlain with sheets of water gravel which can be tapped at shallow depth. With the development of cheap power for the operation of the pumps there is a chance to ulaec a trroat manv additional settlers on the lands of this J.

The object of this school is to educate the deaf children who come to it with out language of any kind, into useful, intelligent, self-supporting citizens. This is accomplished by means of both literary and industrial training. Through ignorance of the existence of the school, or misconception of its purpose and character, there are deaf children in many communities who are not sent to school at all, or are not sent at the proper time. Thus these chil dren are compelled to lose valuable time, and others are actually allowed to grow up to manhood and woman hood, ignorant, helpless, dependent, unable to express their simplest wants in verbal language, cut off from social converse, mentally and spiritually starved and stunted. Their very un necessary plight is infinitely worse than that of the wholly illiterate hear ing person, and surely no missionary, or social, or civic uuty was ever more sacred than thatof seeing that there are as few cases as possible.
