r* DEATH OF NELSON HOWARD GAROUTTE AUTO OVER GRADE NEAR MYRTLE POINT Nelson Howard Garoutte, one of the oldest pioneers in this section o f the country, passed away at 2 o ’clock Wednesday morainic at his home three*iniles south of this city: Mr. Garoutte was horn in Cin- ciliatti, < >hio, July list IR58, and soon after moved with his parents j to Missouri. After a three years i residence in that slate he moved to, Iowa and lived there until 1H65, when he, in company with others, j started across the plains with the | old leliahle ox teams. The party came to California and after livintf in the uolden state for one year, moved to Oregon, and one year later loawted on the Coast Fork River near this city. z\s the result of au automobile accident which occurred on the 'Sugarloaf grade near Myrtle Point last Wednesday evening, Mrs. Minnie Stevenson, late of Klamath Falls, but who had with the other members of her family lieeu at Rosehurg a mouth, was instantly killed and MV. li. Pierce, the driver aud owner of the car, was consider ably bruised, while the other pas sengers, of whom there were six in all, were severely shaken up. The cause o f the accident was the crumbling of the road on a new grade which allowed the machine to roll down the mountain side a distance of some thirty feet, and Mrs. Stevenson was caught be tween the car and a large stump and her life crushed out. In 1865 in Douglas county, standing on the Klk Creek bridge, a private highway— Mr. Garoutte was joined in marriage to Miss Jane Taylor. Six children were horn to this union, tlneeof whom are now living. They are Mrs. Callie Urown, Miss Augusta Ga routte and Walter Garoutte, all re siding near this city. Besides a wife he leaves two sisters and two brothers. One sis ter, Mrs. Jane Gross, lives in this city and another makes her home in llandon, Oregon: a brother, Michael I.. Garoutte, resides in Brownsville and another,> Joseph Garoutte, resides in thin city.

Two cars rolled down an embankment ! 60 feet in height and it w is in these cars the great mortality oc- 1 curved. The wreck was due to defective rails, the engine and two coaches passing over the bad spot without accident, but when the diner struck j the defective rails they spread and the last two coaches were thrown from the track. The train wtis forty minutes late and running fast, hauled by two powerful engines, in an effort to make up lost time. Several persons in the diner were killed, but the largest poition of the dead were in the last two cars. Many veterans returning front the Grand Army encampment at Ro Chester were in the train. “W here You Do Better.” A gen t R .e o A u t o m o b i l e s STERLING FEED COMPANY Wheat, Oats, (..rain Hay.

Most of them were unconscious aud have not been identified. Convention sites for the next four years have been dehnitely de cided upon by the officials of the Pacific Highway Association. The announcement of these sites is made at the present time, so that persons intending to make the con vention tours can lay their plans in ample time. Next year’s convention will be held at Shasta Springs: iu 1613 at some city of Southern California; in 1614 at Hazeltou or Fort George northern British Columbia; aud in 1615 at Sail Francisco. With these rendezvous, which allow the tourist to successive meetings to cover practically all the territory along the route from Mexico to the dis taut North, one may become thor oughty acquainted with the high way itself from actual experience and observation. During the past month a large number of inquiries have been made to members of the Associa tion, regarding the condition of Pacific highway ui British Colutn bia, and especially in the northern part between Fort George and Hazeltou. Little seems to be defi nitely known about this stretch at present. In response to the re quests for information, the Associa tion is making every effort to col lect data on the Fort George-Hazel ton section, particularly as to whether or not it is at present pass able for automobiles. Some time ago, when improvement work was being begun, two motorcylists made the trip, finding it necessary to ship their machines only a small fraction of the way. Since then the road has been considerably bettered as a result of the large sums being spent by the Provincial government. The Association hopes that it will be possible to make a report on this important northern link o f the international \ chain iu a short time. The Caitadiau section of the Pa c ific highway ivaai formally opened this month, F. J. MacKeuzie, M. 1*. P., Government Ageut Fletcher, and Alderman .Palson of New Westminster being the first persous to travel in an automobile over the new section, a uineteeai mile stretch along the old YaJe road.
