water enough for drinking purposes,
while water to waah faces and hands Is
a luxury enjoyed only by the fortunate
few. Ileppner gets lta,aupply of water

plunger of the pump broke and It was
discovered that tha part could not be
obtained this side of Chicago. While
any water at all' remained In the reser
voir it waa distributed t the people
from I ise to house from a tank, but
for the laat day or two this tank has
been forced to go several miles out of
town to refill at a aprlng, and water
Is consequently a very scarce article.
A few wells about town relieve the situ
ation .somewhat, but the wster Is very
poor and tha phyatclana predict a great
deal of alckneas will result from the
present condlton of affairs.
Mora Disagreeable.
Conditions are made mora disagreeable
on account of the fine slit left by the
flood which the wind whlska around In a
vicious manner. Thla waa kept down

the people have to grin and swallow

today. Several thousand dollars of the
relief fund left on hand are to be uaed
for this purpose, as there now remains
none who are In need. Aa the banks of
the creek are almost solid basalt rock
the consensus of opinion Is that this

NEWBERG, r., Aug. 21. Last even
ing at 6:05 o'clock fire was discovered
In the fine residence of W. C. Kruger on
West Main street. The fire companies
responded promptly but the hoae lacked
nearly 100 feet of reaching from the
nearest hydrant so all that could be done
was to save the furniture. Mr. Kruger
carried some insurance, but at present
cannot tell Just how much. Besides the
Iocs of his house, valued at )2,000, he
lost $500 in cash besides many valuable
papers. The Are originated from a de
fective flue in the kitchen and burned,
very elowly. Had the. hose been long"
enough to reach the place the firemen
could have easily saved the building
with only a alight losa.
Newberg people are taking stock In
a creamery to be built at Springbrook,
two miles east of here. It is reported
on very good authority that one will be
built here in the near future.
Threshing is almost done, and some
big yields are reported in wheat and
oats and the farmers are -all Jubilant.
The Free Methodists are holding camp
meeting here and are drawing large
crowds nightly and a number of addi
tional members have been made to the
church.
