Joe Albers of Corvallis bad a narrow escape from drowning about 12 o'clock last Saturday night. Joe was jagged and wulked off the platform iu the rear of the Water Front saloon, dropping ubout 12 feet. His cries brouglit Ralph Van Cleve aud Frank Parker to his as sistance with a boat, but the tide was coming in rapidly and he was carried about one hundred yards, t a point near the comer of G. L. Gray's saw mill yard, before they reached bim. The drowning man had ceased to strug gle and only the too of his head was visible when hm rescuers seized him and prevented bim going to the bottom for his finish. He was uuconscious when Frank and Ralph dragged him up the bank. By this time about a dozen persons had arrived and all joined in rolling Joe over a log aud pumping water out and air in. Dr. Wetmore also appeared ou the scene and admin istered restoratives, after which Joe was taken to the Parker Honse and pat to bed. Here lie became quite "bug house," and to Rlph Van Cleve was assigned the pleasant job of sitting upon bim until morning. By Sunday evening he was able to be around again and was placed aboard the train and Bent home. Albers is about 50 years of age and is said to be an expert carpen ter between drunks. Appreciated.
