Fred Behrena narrowly escaped death while attempting to board the branch line train at lone last Friday evening. It appears that tbe train on preparing to leave the station at lone backed down to the water tank, a hundred yards below the depot, and did not stop on coming back, and by the time it got to the station, was running about eight miles an hour. Fred thought he could board the train safely, hut the moment he caught hold of the rods at tbe front end of the rear coach he was instantly hurled beneath the train, with tbe re sult his bead and one arm were badly cut, but no bones broken. He was picked up a moment later laying across the rail unconscious. It was thought at first that he was dead, but that proved untrue as be regained consciousness a few hours later and is now on tbe rapid road to recovery. Beside the cuts on tbe bead and arm he sustained severe bruises on the body. However, the injuries are not serious and Fred will be "himself" again in a short time.

Miss Willa May, youogest daughter f Mr. and Mrs. Ellis Minor, died at the family home in this city last Wednes day night at the age of 18 years. Miss Minor had been a long sufferer and her death was not unexpected. She was born and reared in Heppner where she was respected by all. For two years she resided in Denver, Col., with the hope that her health would be benefited, but the change did her no permanent good. Miss Minor was of a cheerful disposition and readily made friends of all whom she came in contact and will be sadly miesed in the com munity.

The sugar beets raised near Echo are now ready to go to the sugar factory at La Grande and next week tbe work of transporting tbem to Echo will begin, says the Echo News.

The Ireet experiment here is pro nounced an unqualified success and it is said that if tbe land can be secured next year 500 acres will be planted to beets by tbe Amalgamated Sugar Co., which company owns tbe LaUrande factory.
