man of ilurna, nnld yesterday about
Ilond. Thirty years ago ho wns bora
and hotiRlit 100 head of cattle from
8 in nud Jim Smith, drlvltiK them
back to tho Silver crook country.
"Ilond surely has chanRed no mo,"
said Del, after his friends had shown
him about town. "It's tho liveat,
illicit little city I over saw. It's got
enouRh push and huatlo to do any
thing." Mr. Dlbhlo autocd over with his
brothcr-ln-taw. Price Pcnnlck, and
waa a guest at Hotel Ilcnd. Ho said
the rood west of IlrooklnRs' Is In
fine shape, but that tho aectlon
through Lako county la a dlagraco.
Ho called attention to the fact tbat
thla road haa been tho ineana of aot
tllng n lot of northern Lako county,
and urged that that county b pe
titioned to Improve the 10 miles of
tho ruuto within Its boundaries.
"Ilcnd offers tho best route for
freight and passenger Burns ever
has had," said the Harney county
visitor, who ndded that nil tho busl
ines men of Hums entertain tho
wannest feelings for llcnd, and are
highly satisfied with tho treatment
their freight receives Jioro nnd In
transportation. In comparing tho
ilend route with that from Vale, Mr.
Dibble mentioned, aa on examplo of
the dlsadvanlagu of tho eastern routo,
that ho had six cases of sugar at Vnle
for eight months, and can't get
them.
Hend's aldewalka, water power and
sower construction especially Im
pressed Mr. Dibble.

William Gorton nnd Lawrence Mo-
Clnskoy, 8 nnd C yosrs old respective

river a llttlo below tho old Llnstcr
sawmill last Wednesday, tho accident
occurring nbout li:.10 o'clock. 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. Fox, efforts to find the bod

(Portland Journal)
SALEM, vAprli 19 Assured by
Jcsso Stearns, secretary of the Cen
tral- Oregon Irrigation Co., that tho
company bad bright prospects of se
curing over $200,000 for Immodlato
expenditure on the company's project
In Crook county, tho stato desert
land board today refused to take ac
tion that might harass the company
or Interfere with tho securing ot
funds for tho completion of tho pro
ject.
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

" large mo rowou sum canal now
would be foolish. Thero has been no
graft In connection with this project,
nnd no ono has got out the money In
vested." Contentions of Mr. Williams.
Mr. Williams said the board ag
gravated tho situation by approving
under a contract made February 5,
1912, the aalo. of moro land in tho
area In which thero already oxlstod
a canal shortage He censured tho
lioard for transferring to the com
pany $25,000 In cash out of the fund
