Lo zello Hhultz was rescued after ho had saved hltnself by climbing onto n rock in tho stream. Tho two boys, with several com panions, wont down to the river after achool had let out Wedncaday after noon to look for crawfish. After playing about for a time one of them caught alght of a boat drawn up on the bank a abort distance above the site of tho old mill, and called to tho others to go out on tho water. Lo sell Hhuttx. 12 years old, Joined them and they got In the boat. It was at a placo where the water Is swift and before they realized what was happening tho current had drawn them out from ahorc. In a moment they had swept over tho falls where the boat was overturned and the lads thrown out. BhulU and Gorton man aged to get hold of the capsized boat while the smaller McClaskey boy was carried ahead down river. About 100 yards below the falls a largo rock stands out of tho water and the little boy, keeping on the surface, got around Into the backwater below tho rock. The overturned boat, with tho others clinging to it. hit tho rock Just after this and BhulU managed to climb up on It. Here tho boat hung up. Gorton lost his hold and wenv on down tho river, vainly try ing to swim In to shore, while Mc- Claakey waa carried out from the oddy nud went under. Playmates of tho three boys who were on tho shore and aaw tho acci dent called for help and boon a large number of people had collected ou the river bank opposite the rock on which tho Bbults boy was. It was too lata to do anything for his compan ions: nil effort waa directed toward getting him aahoro. At first a lino mado of ropo and wire whs thrown out to the boy but because of Its weakness no attempt wsn mado to bring him ashore with It. In a short tlmo others came with moro nnd stronger rope which was floated out to him from above and tho boy brought to land. He was hurried to his homo and waa found to havo suf fored no III effects from tho hhock oi oxposuro. Under direction of J. If. Wonandy nnd L. L.

E. H. Williams, one of tho settlers In the Powell Butto district, urged the board for the second time to take action that would compel the com pany to enlarge the old Cen tral Oregon canal, so there would bo no further delay In getting water to all the purchasers of land In the Powell Butte district. It Is estimated the cost of enlarging the canal would be $2S.000,'but It was said it would cripple the company If compelled at this time to expend this amount on that particular work when every ef fort Is being made to complete tho North Canal and other Important parts of the project. 9180,000 Spent Lat Year. "It Is very easy to call upon tho board to compel tho company to do certain things, but it Is not ao easy for the company to act when It does not have the money," said Secretary Stearns. "Last year the company spent $180,000, of which $140,000 was new cosh brought Into the proj ect. We bavo Just secured a plcdgo from these same people tojiutjip 60.ouu more, anu we have very fc T. '.
