A near-fatality of the "thought it
was a deer" type, occurred on Myrtle
creek. In the Glendale district Thurs
day afternoon, when one of the two
Miller brothers of Leland shot and
slightly wounded the other. The
boys were hunting along the creek
when the younger brother, 17 or 18
years of age, saw a form moving In
distinctly through the brush, and
thinking it a deer took aim and fired.
The bullet, a copper-jacketed one of
.30 calibre, wa3 somewhat deflected
from its course by Btriklng a twig,
and the jacket stripped from the
leaden part of the bullet by the same
twig. The jacket struck the brother
over the chest, hut did not penetrate
the cavity, and the rest of the bullet
glanced along the top of Miller's
head, making a scalp wound that is
not considered serious. The Injured
man Is about 21 years of age.
Young Miller was hastened to the
farm home of Oliver McGee, where H,
he was given such treatment as was.
at hand, and then left for G'.endale,
wheje the wounds will be dressed by
a pityslclan.
The shot was fired at a distance of
only about fifty yards, and as the aim
seems to have been true, but for the
twig there Is no sjuestld!i but that the
first fatal accident of the deer hunt
ing season In southern Oregon would
have been recorded.

O'RILEY WOULD SELL
CITY AN INCINERATOR
H.. P. O'Riley, representing the
Conley Incinerator company, spent
Monday In the city interesting the
city officials and others in the con
struction of an incinerating plant in
this city to take care of the garbage
question. Mr. Riley states that
many of the smaller cities are "build
ing incinerators, the expense being
much less for an up-to-date plant
than is generally supposed. An in
cinerator of a ton capacity for each
thousand inhabitants is required, and
the cost Is about $1,000 for each ton
of rapacity. For Grants Pass the
plant would cost $5,000, and as the
institution is erected upon the unit
plan, other units could be added as
required. This figure includes a
brick building of attractive architec
ture, and an Incinerator that Is both
odorless and smokeless, and not only
the ordinary garbage Is disposed of
through It, hut the carcasses of de
ceased animals are also destroyed in
