as the first kiss of puppy love. It was

incalculable.

mining industry in southern Oregon;
yet it is a fact that there are more mines
in active operation in this section than
any other in the state. Considerable
gold is being taken out right along, and
people do not notice it any more than in
any'otber branch of business. .Some of
the mines have been yielding a hand
some income to their owners for years
and others just as valuable are being
opened up every week.
It is probable that an application will
be made to Judge Hanna soon for per

A Dial On Sis Face.
Col. James B. Eddy, . of the Oregon
Railway commission,' has returned from
the scene of the bridge collapse on the
Oregom Pacific, fifty miles Vest of Cor
vallis. ' On the part of the commission,
Col. iiddy made an investigation into
the source of the accident and found it
difficult to give a definite answer. It
appears that the bridge had been' in
spected bat a short time ago and pro
nounced sound and train worthy.
In connection with the terrible acci

strange incident, ine conductor was
Johnny Campbell and after the crash
was over and search was made in the
debris, on , Mr. Campbell's face under
the left eye was a perfect picture of his

minutes past 3 o'clock,' just the time of
the accident. It is supposed he had his
watch in his hand looking at the time
when the crash came and he fell with
his face on the dial and it left the imprint.-
