One by one the appointees of Presi

first change to take place here occurred
this morning in the land office, Mr.

Lang has had considerable experience in
the office and understands its duties
thoroughly.
Miss Lizzie DeMoss was more eeri-j
ously injured in the recent accident at
30-Mile than was at first reported. Act
cording to the Condon Globe, the shot
gun fell from the top of the stage, the
hammer striking the tire of the wheel.
The entire charge struck her left leg
above the knee, tearing away at least a
pound of flesh, and also tearing away
the flesh of the left hand between the
thumb and fore finger. She is recover
ing rapidly and the company expects to
go East November 1st.
In a swell New York hotel a table was
spread for a wedding party of fourteen
persons. One young man failed to come.
The bride would not sit down till the
hotel bouncer got himself into an even
ing suit and took the vacant chair, thus
avoiding the thirteen superstition. It
was afterward discovered that the miss
ing man had sent his society trousers to
be pressed, and the tailor had burned a
big bole iu the seat. So it seems the
bad luck was not with the thirteen, but
with the fourteenth fellow, who didn't
go at all.
Mr. Peter Rosch was in from Daf ur and
made the heart of the printer glad by a
visit. He remarked : "Times have been
pretty hard for several years and news
paper bills had to wait, so now that
things have got better, I thought it was
time to pay the printer," and this he
did, and a year in advance besides.
This paper, realizing how hard a strug
gle the farmers were having, made no
attempt to collect subscriptions for the
last two years, but now that our farmer
friends are getting on easy street, we
would like it if they would invite us to
walk with them. Oar subscription clerk
wears a smile that will make you twenty
years younger. Call and see him.
Taxpayers, Attention.
This is my last and final call to you,
as the county court has issued an im
perative order.
By virtue of a warrant to me directed,
issued, by the clerk of the county court
of the state of Oregon for the county of
Wasco, commanding me to collect the
delinquent, county, state ' and ' other
taxes, I will, on the 1st day of October,
1897, without farther notice, levy upon
and sell all property upon which taxes
remain unpaid. T. J. Driver,
Sheriff.
A LIVELY RUNAWAY.
George Williams' Team Takes a Little
Spin On Its Own Account.
The team of white horses used by
George Willama to haul his ice wagon,
ran away last night in fine style. At
the time they were hitched to a wood
wagon, and when' passing Kinersly's
house the king bolt dropped through
the bolster, letting the wagon uncouple.
The horses having but the front wheels
hitched to them, thought it would be a
good time to have a'little fun with the
thing, so they started to run away.
JnmeB Hannon was driving them, but
was thrown to the ground. He hung on
to the lines until be was dragged a cou
ple of rods, when, not liking that sort of
riding, he let go. Then the horses ran
up Union to Eleventh, turned down
Eleventh in front of Julius Wiley's,
where they took a turn across that va
cant block. There they caught up with
a man in a top buggy and gave him an
interesting chaEe He. circled around
the block, but no matter which way he
turned the team followed him, but final
ly went off at a tangent, running over
the fire plug and colliding with a post in
the alley back of Lempke's, between
Ninth and Tenth. Then they ran down
the alley, crossing the street by the old
Lutheran church, and there one of the
wheels caught on to a telephone pole
and everything was brought up with a
euddenness that was astonishing to the
horses.
One of the horses broke loose, burst
ing a tug and breaking a single-tree,
and continuing his flight . to the stable.
The other apparently thought the wagon
had stopped to deliver ice, for be was as
cool and unconcerned as though be had

Vernon, the 2-yar-old child of Mr.
and Mrs. W. C. Caldwel', wandered
away from his borne at Condon Friday
morning. His mother supposed he had
gone with his father out to his grand
mothers, so no alarm was felt until the
father returned. Then it was growing
dark, but all the town of Condon turned
out with lanterns to search for him. In

he thought was a baby crying among
the rocks near where the crew was
camped, and on investigation he foiled
the little fellow crying as if his heart
was broken. He was soon taken to
camp and fed, while one of the men
volunteered to go to Condon and report
the find ; and so the baby was soon re
stored to his parents.

MOST MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.
Thrilling Experience of the Engineer at
the E. & E. Mines.
A telephone message received last
evening by the Democrat from Bourne,
conveys the intelligence of the most
thrilling accidente and miraculous es
capes which has ever been recorded in
the history of Baker county's mining in
dustry. In some unaccountable manner the
engineer at the Eureka & Excelsior
mines slipped and fell into the mam
moth fiy wheel, which is twenty feet in
diameter and runs at the frightful speed
of 125 revolutions per minute. None of
the employes of the mine were witnesses
to the fall of the engineer and for an hoar
and a quarter the helpless man was
whirled around on his fearful ride at the
rate of nearly 100 miles and hour. When
his awful position was discovered and
ponderous machinery at last brought to
a standstill the hapless engineer had
actually travelled 110 miles. He was
taken out, seemingly breathless and
more dead than alive, but when he was
brought to consciousness, most wonder
derful to relate, it was found that his
injuries were simply a lot of painful
bruises, none of which are in any sense
serious.
