M’MINNVILLE, ORE., FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 1899. Euteredatthe Postone»in McMinnville, as Second-class matter. VOL. XXIX. HOFLWELL. lu»pircdt>> the Walerfall. Twenty-one McMiunvilleites Started for Haskins’ to witness the sights; The day at first was oh, so tine, But alas, what a decided change at nine Our chaperon was about alright, And the leaders they were out of sight, With Paddy it> his trousers white Acted the clown as best be might. The crowd was slow, the day was blue, And we were lost for what to do. Some sat around the dreary fire, While others did the falls admire. At last came time for lunch so fine, And round the spread we dropped ill line; There was no one to say the grace, But each one looked it on his face. Of the delicious food we need not speak, For it disappeared as a lightning streak: Sandwiches, pickles, eggs and beans, Cakes, pies, coffee and cream. Then came the picture so sublime Taken by amateurs quite fine; Some held sandwiches, a kettle, one, Others held cakes, and coffee, some. While the table then the girls did clear, And for the'.eventng lunch, we shed a tear, As everyone so heartily ate That nothing was left but a radish for bait. For the Next Ten Days will offer Our Entire Stock at Marked Reduction from Former Price. Then a few to the hacks retired; Others to stay by the tire desired; The lunch exposed the rain did soak While the boysenjoyed a hearty siuoke. At last came time to say goodbye, And for the homeward march we heaved a sigh, As the rein had played havoc with robesand coats, And someone suggested we better take boats, The prominent features of the homeward ride Were cakewalks and snapshots along the road side; Some were drowsy, others were gay, While a few sang songs in their jolly way. All our fine hand-turned Tan Shoes of the well-known Drew-Selby make formerly sold at $3.50 and #3.75, all go at $2.50. But we’ll visit old Haskins some tuture day, When the clouds roll by and the snow melts away; Then we’ll gather together our party so blithe— We’ll have a rousing old time In the sweet bye and bye. —B y Two of the P arty . All our $2.50 and $2.25 Tan Shoes go at $1.50. Our merchant, Mr. Bull, has sold his property in Hopewell, and is soon to make his home in Portland. After six months of successful teach ing Mrs. Walling closed her school at Hopewell, Friday, the 23d, with a re ception for her scholars. Ice cream and cake were served. The picnic given in the Hopewell grove Wednesday, June 14th, under the aus pices of the ladies’ guild was quite well attended, and a success both socially and financially. The solo rendered by Prof. Ginn of Salem was highly appreci- atek by all, and received tlie applause for an encore as usual. The andience showed their appreciation of the young ladies’ hoop drill, under the training of Mrs. Christenson, by requesting it re peated in the afternoon. After all ex penses the guild showed a profit of |33.95 from their ice cream stand. niSTHICT NO. <1. Mrs. English near Lafayette, has been quite sick, but is about again and we hope will recover soon. Rev. Scott of Lafayette lias an appoint ment to preach for us on the fifth Sun day of July at 3 o’clock p. m. When on the way home from church through that hard shower of rain Sunday night, about a half mile from the school house, a horse driven to a buggy by an aged gentleman with two small boys was frightened by something by the roadside and shied, almost upsetting the buggy. Tiie next carriage with two ladies and two boys was accosted witli “ketch ’em!” out of the darkness, but not knowing the fate of the old man ahead, of course the ladies only supposed it to be a neighbor boy returning home also.

On Wednesday Eugene Leoper created quite a stir up the West Side in his race I against time. T. II. Rogers and R. A. Harris employed him at his usual charge for ordiuary labor—20 cents an hour—to run from McMinnville to Corvallis, a dis tance of very nearly 50 miles by rail. The object of this race was to leave ibis citv at 7 a. tn., run to Corvallis and re turn to this city on the afternoon train, which leaves Corvallis at 1:20 p. in., and incidentally to break the world’s record for a long distance swing trot, which in sporting circles is classed as walking. His attire was knee pants, sweater, cap and bicycle shoes. Herein was the mis take. The shoes were too light to stand the strain, and running on the gravel bed of the railroad forced the tacks up into his feet, and he was compelled to stop when he had reached Independence. With the excitability characteristic of human kind, people had gathered at all stations along the route to see the “hu man engine” pass by. The distance and time made by Leoper was as follows: Hour Distance. McMinnville........... ........... 7:00 Whiteson......... . .. . 7:32 4l«m Amity..................... ......... 7:52 7m McCoy.................... ........... 8:35 12m Derry..................... ......... 9 :58 20m Independence .... ....'. U :12 26m Leoper and his friends are confident that he can perform the feat under more favorable circumstances, aud will try again Home time, Leoper says the track is pretty good until beyond Amity, where the weeds bothered his progress some- wl at. The train caught him about the middle of the long culvert near Inde pendence, Hnd he was obliged to get down and cling to the side until the the train passed. Real Estate Transfer».
