Keebler, who lives about 4 miles north of this city, was drowned in the treacherous waters cf tiieSantlnm laat Sunday, July 19, at the age of 22 years and two days. Joseph Keebler, In company with three Dough ton boys and Melville Stewart went to the river where the OregonUn railroad crosses about 8 o'clock in the afternoon and went in bathing. It seems that they were on a large rock that slopes oft Into deap water. Keebler slipped and fell and drifted Into deep water. Frank Doughlon went to his rescue but Keeb ler wss about to drown him also and Doughton freed himself, but went back to his friend the second and third time and each time was i.early drowned, finally reaching shore In au exhausted condition himself. Keebler tbeu drifted out into the whirlpool directly beneath the railroad bridge where be lay in plain eight in about 20 feet of water for about an hour and a half before his body was recov ered, it being: a very dangerous place. Joseph Keebler joined the M. E. Church South in 1889, and has lived a consistent christiau life ever since. He was a young man of good habits and was well liked by everyone who kuew him. The funeral services were con ducted at the Spicer church by Rev. Thos. Clark, assisted by Bev. F. S. Doughtou, on Monday, after which his remains were laid to rest In the Masonic cemetery at this place. Mr. E. Keebler has a family of ten children aud this is the first death that lias occurred in the family. The bereaved family have the sympathy of the entire community lu this their sad bereavement Excursion to Newport, An evcursion will be run from this city to Newport next Sunday, July 26. This will be a grand opportunity for those who would like to go to Newport and return the same day. The Boda vlUe Concert Band has been engaged to accompany the excursion. Among tde attractions at Newpart, the First Regiment Band, ot Portland, bas been eugaged for the season at Newport and will give a concert during the day Sunday. Much depends, for Lebanon, upon the success of this excursion, as there will undoubtedly be people who will wish lo take this trip later in the summer and the possibility of this depends entirely upon the success of this excursion. If a good crowd will go this time, an excursion could be run whenever desired, after this, but if no crowd goes, it will afterward be ira- iraesible to get an excursloa. The ex cursion will leave Lebanon at 6:15 Sunday morning and arrive at New port at 11. Returning will leave New port at 6:30 in the evening and arrive at Lebauon about midnight. Round trip ticket $2. Two Brothers Drowned. About noon yesterday two brothers named Atkins (or Atchison) were drowned while bathing in Willamette slaugh three miles below Wheatland, at the Galloway farm. The news was brought to Salem by a gentleman from Llucoln, who was near there yesterday. The older brother is six feet and two Inches tall, about 22 years of age, while the other Is several years younger. The older could not swim, and having gone beyond bis depth, called to his brother for help. The latter swam heroically to the rescue, but in bis efforts to save him, was himself drawn down, and both lost their lives. Today at uoon the bodies bad not been recov ered aud it seems impossible to get further particulars as there is no tele phone connection near there. Journal. A SERIES OF RUNAWAYS. Lebanon has had more runaway accidents during the post week titan la the same length of time for many years. On Friday about noon a team be longing to Jacob Fitzwater became frightened while standing on the street near Dalgleisli A Everett's and ran away, going down Bridge Avenue at a breakneck speed, ami coming to a standstill in a heap in front of J. G. Reed's residence, uear the canal. No one was hurt. The same afternoon Anderson Bland's team became frightened while standing at the paper mill and came tearing dowu Main street at full speed, but were stopped by a crowd standing in front of the poetoffice without doing much damage. Monday morning O'Neil Bros', paper wagon team became frightened at the train. The driver, George Dibble, held to them manfully until one line broke and he was thrown from the wagon. The team soon broke loose from the wagou and started through town. In attempting to turn the corner at Mayor Pugh's residence, one of the horses came iu contact with a tree, killing him instantly. The other horse broke loose from his unfortunate companion aud ran dowu Bridge Avenue, coming to a halt when he fell into the canal, but was unhurt. Monday afternoon G. W, Aldricb's horse, which he uses to deliver flour, broke loose and ran away with the wagon but did no damage. Monday afternoon while Jos. Buhl was at the slaughter house his team took fright and started to run. Joe was near by and, jumping into the wagon he got hold of the lines, but before he could get entire control of the team they bad run into a fence and broken the tongue nut of the wagon. No other damage was done. judgment Against Waterloo. Joseph Misner, a respectable citizen of Waterloo, was arrested last spring and tlued in a summary manner, by the town authorities. Many of the best citizens of that lively, little town thought Mr. Misner had been badly treated. Mr. Garland and Mr. Homers were employed to test the matter iu the circuit court, aud succeeded In oh. talnlng a judgment against the city for the fine and costs and also the costs of the suit In the circuit court. For. some reason the officers of the city have attempted to give up their offices and the city is apparently left with no municipal government. Waterloo can't afford to become the plaything of Its officers and should proceed at once lo properly govern itself or know the reason why it can't tie done, Marion Kiser's Residence Burned, Just as we go to press news of the total destruction by fire of the fine residence of Marion Klzer, near Bow- land, reaches us. Mr. Kizer was absent it the time, having started this morning for a trip up the Ssutlam, berrying. We are uuable to give any particulars beyond the fact that a little of the furniture on the first floor was saved. Brownsville Times. One-half wool dress goods reduced to ; ocrsny has every reasou to Us proud of Linn County All Right. Mr. George A. Dyson, of Brownsville has a two-column article in today's Oregouian, mostly relating to a visit with H. L. Hotchkiss. Referring to the Bantiam mines be says: "So far $120,000 in gold has been spent In the Bantiam, and the ledges are just begin ning to get fairly prospected enough to begin to show their value, and the deeper the workings the better the ore gets. So the all-important question as to whether the ledges iu the Cascade range go down or not is fully settled, and we now look for all the camps from the Clackamas on the north lo the Bohemia district on the south, to take on new life from this time for ward." Among other things Mr, Hotchkiss said to him: "Why look at the timber here. I thought I had seen some fine timber lu Michigan and Wisconsin, but I find that when I come to see the timber in Oregon and Washington I come to the conclusion that I know nothing about timber at all. This is far ahead of anything I have ever seen in my life before. Then your hops grow healthier and larger than In the east, where I live, and your grain excels ours both in quality and quantity; your salmon fisheries are superior to anything in the world, and when it comes to fruit, what shall I say?" and be paused for a reply, and then taking up the thread of his conversation again, he said: "Aud your mineral wealth is, as yet, untouched. I have just returned from the Bantiam mines iu this county, and it Is truly wonderful to see the amount of gold ore in sight up there, and I learn that you have a new mining district called, I believe, Blue river, that is just beginning to develop. Mr. Lawler tells me of a mine there called the Lucky Boy, that for the amount of work done far excels anything in the Satillam district." est STOP! -Sol Examine the Lines of Shoes Gents' Tan and Black Yale, Needle, Glove, Common Sense, Old Comfort.
