Then, taking out his pocketbook, he drew a card from it and a pencil ana prepares vu make a memorandum. "What's your name?" he asked. "Butterfield." "First name?" "Marcus."

Mr. Butterfield, amid the cheers of tho crowd, cot into the automobile, was driven to a distant city and re ceived his legacy. Then what did he do? He astounded his former congregation by payinte off the mortgage on the church. "I do think," said Miss Tetling to Mrs. Abercromble, "that man is a real Christian."

BALLSTON BRIDGE GOES OUT High Water in Yamhill River Does Much Damage. The heavy rains and melting snow the fore Dart of the week swelled ev ery stream and caused the Yamhill riv er to rise until it seemed the high wa ter mark would be reached, says the Sheridan Sun. Monday night and ail day Tuesday the water continued to rise until the highest point was reach ed toward evening when the guage in dicated 21 feet of water, or a foot and a half lower than the highest wa ter noint. Many logs came floating down the river from the Palmer Mill ac Will amina and a few from the Scott & nutlet Mill at Butler, and the loss from this source will be considerable. The low lands adjacent to the river were Inundated and the south end of Bridee street, from the track to the Scroeein residence, was covered, the water reaching nearly to the sidewalk A few cellars were flooded in town Above Willamina the water so en croached upon the highway that the stage was unable to make its regu lar triD to Grande Rande and only went as far as Willamina. At Ballston the wagon brdige across the Yamhill river was taken out by th high water and floated downstream and many bridges and culverts on smaller streams have disappeared from the same cause.
