An amusement in dulged in on the way to the picnic, was throwing water on people in passing vehicles, a huge can of water being taken for the purpose. In one or two instances people were drenched in passing the hay rack aggregation, a fact enjoyed by the latter hut caused the victims less erjojtment ' THURSDAY. The OAC Commencement gram of Events.

On the other hand, '. the highest aspirations have become a reality, ; and they are naturally happy over the victory won. -A. this . time, too, many former students return to renew old friendships, and thus, through out the week, there is bustle and merriment, and afterwards the summer calm. .

He retired early, but during the night complained ot pain, and his , stepson, Charles Fox, waited on him and brought remedies asked for. After that he fell asleep, but during the early morning hours a noise from his room brought Mrs. Sullivan to his side when he was found lying over the foot of the bed in a dying condition. Dr. W. H. Davis was hastily called, but was unable to do anything for Mr. Sullivan who breathed his last about the time the physician ar rived. Mrs. Sullivan's sons, Clyde Fox, station agent at Yaquina, and Louis Fox agent at Toledo, arrived on the non train yester day, and Mr. Sullivan's nephew,. Harry Trinwith, a railroad official of Eureka, is expected to reach here on Tuesday afternoon. De ceased leaves a widow and small son, three step-sons and one step-daughter to mourn his sad and untimely death. Mr. Sullivan was a native of Ireland and came to the United States when but a youth about 36 years ago. He early began railroading, working on several roads in : Iowa. Later he came to the coast, rising rapidly in rail road work, and in 1889 he came to this V alley and became foreman of a : work train on ; the Oregon Pacific, now the C. & E., when that liner was built to Al bany.; He, soon became road master, and in 1894, when Ed win Stone became manager of the BEGINS road, Mr. Sullivan was. appoint ed superintendent, which position he filled from that time until his death. - He was noted as one of the best railroad builders in the west, very popular with his sub ordinates and the general public, a good citizen and husband.
