The body of Edgar Howell, au ao oouut ot tbe liudiug ot which waa re ported last week lu the ExauJucr, was brought to Lakeview aud interred baturday afternoon. The services were conducted by the Woodmen of the World, of wblcb organization Mr Howell was a social member, belong ing to the Seattle camp. It appears tbat Mr. Howell'a death waa caused by belug crushed by a heavy rook which he was trying to dispose of. Ha waa digging a bole in wblcb to place tbe rock, when the bank evidently caved in and let tbe rock fall on bin crushing blni into an almost anapleae mane. Notwito aUnding bis terrible injuries be suc ceeded In releasing blmaelf and in some way got ontof tbe bole, but evi dently succumbed to the Inevitable tbortly after. There was no evideoce of bis having attempted enlclde, aa waa repotted. Mr. Howell waa lo good circum stances, and baa a brother living In Sbeblyville. Kan.

Tbe Doctor and bis parents ex pect to apend aomejtime'io and aronnd Lakeview, with tbe object ot familiar izing themselves witb tbii part of tbe itate. Tbe parents are old pioneers of Ore gon, having crossed tba plains in '47 and aettled in Yamhill county, where tbey now live. AOREE TO DISAGREE Two Stage Lines to Oper ate on Western oute Corey and Lambert Can't Adjust Differences, ann Latter to Run Opposition Tbe traveling public ia certainly to be congratnlated, if current reports in transportation circles oome any where near proving true. As la gen erally known, P M Corey la the anooeasful bidder on tba Altora and Klamath Falla Hoes, aa well aa tbat to Plush. The latter, however, doea oot seem to figure much, bat tbe otber two lines promise to be big money-makes daring the neit few years, and tbat la why tbe people who bave to travel over those rontea are to be greatly benifltted in tbe way of improved accomodations. While Mr Corey bae not as yet psrfected bis plans, it is almost definitely aettled that beginning July I a schedule of 18 hours will be established between Klamath Falls and Lakeview, and tbat the line will be equipped tbrongh out with four-borse stocK and modern Concord coaches. For those desiring a faster method of travel an auto ser vice will be run in connection witb the atage line, and tbe entire ttip made in a few tours. Bot, then, this ia not all, and there by bangs a tale. Messrs Crosa and Lambert, who bave been operating tbat portion of tbe Hoe between Klamath Falls and Bly, were unsuc cessful bidders for the contract of catrying tbe mails on the lines se cured by Mr Corey. Tbey have been unable to make a satisfactory deal, for the disposal ot tneir stock and ve hicles, and now tbey propose to op erate an independent line in opposi tion to that of Mr. Corey Tbey promise a daylight run with the stages, in additioa to an antomooile service, and if everything mature according to the plans outlined there is no reason why tbe competing lines should not cut rates and let the traveling public benefit both as to accommodations and fare. It ia intimated that Cross A Lam bert will go on the Alturaa line also. but from tbe present outlook the competition on tbat route will un doubtedly be bot anyway, aa num- eious owners of autos are already figuring on carrying passengers te tweeu bere and Aituras whenever np portuuityj offers. It is understood that Mr Corey will put autoi on tbe line in tbe very near future, in addi tion to tbe line of stages which be is now operating. Mr Corey has gone to considrable expense in getting ready to operate bis several stage lines, and being lo cated at the junction of tbe three toutes be is ia position to operate eaut) of them most advantageously. His having tbe mail contract gives biai another advantage when it comes to cutting fares, so that when he states tbat be will meet all compe tition he undoubtedly means exactly what he says. However, Cross & Lambert under stand tbe business thoroughly, and wheu they euter the Held ou au iude pendeut banis there will certaiuly be soinethiug doing.

Whistler Now In Charge of Work Water Supply Much Greater Than Supposed II B. Millard, who ia at tba bead cT toe big irrigation project over ia WTroer Valley, waa to town aeveral day during tba past week in conver sation witb an Examiner representa tive, Mr Millard stated tbat be now bad Ave surveying crewa to tba field in charge of Engineer West, and all working under tba direction of J T wTistler, lata of the U 8 Reclamation Service, and who haa a bigb, standing in"irrlgation engineering, a few days since Mr. Whistler went over to Cat tow Valley to make an investigation of tbat aection. bat will return about the middle of tbe month. "While Mr. Millard ia not ready to make public bia plana, yet it ta gen errlly understood tbat one of tbe many big things of tbe undertaking is to make a storage reservoir of Big Cailey. From an engineering stand point it is aald to be Ideal, although it will necessitate tbe borlngf quite a lengthy tunnel In order to avoid a long detour along tbe creeks and over rocky ridgea and plateaus. Surveys are now Delng made for the ditchea and reservoirs, and it wBl be some time before tbat work ia completed. Daring the paat aeveral montha an acuurate measurement of the waters of tbe several streams from which water ia to be used, and tba flow far ex ceeded expectations. Mr. Millard la especially well pleased over the re sult, aa there had been some differ ence of opinion aa to whether the flow would be sufficient to reclaim tbe large body of land withdrawn by bli company. It is almost impossible to realize tbe vast benefits to be derived from the successful carrying out of tbe plans of the company, as it will result in making productive many thousands of acres that are now vacant and cov ered witb sage-brush WAS A DJGSl!CCESS School Entertainment Pleasant Surprise Opera House Packed, and Teach ers (liven fjuch Credit for Splendid Program Tbe school program, given at Sold er's Opera house on Friday evening April 29, was a huge suooess. The large audience estimated at 500 was attentive and very much interested, during the recitals, songs, drills and tableaux, requiring more than two and one quarter hours. Seldom, if ever, has a Lakeview audieuce shown so much interest in a school pro gram. Many well-merited complineota have been giveu tho teaoheis, for the arrangement and management of tbe program and for the thoroughness of preparation, as shown by the pupila in reuderiug their various parts. The net proceeds was 118.80, which has benu placed" to the credit of the school libraiy fund. Not only was the entertainment such a prououueed success, but it wus also one that reflected tnucn crea- it upou ttie eduaatioual advantages of Cakeview. While it showed much painatakiug work on the part of those baviug tbe affair iu charge, it also proved conclusively tbat (tbey, as teachers, are l ight up to date in every particular. Lee Beall is makiug many improve ments to his renideuce property. He has turned the dwelliug around and raised it aeveral feet from the ground, and when be completes tbe job he will certaiuly have been golug sonva. The location is not only a very desir able but also quite, picturesque, be ing located at tbe end of tbe street lo a handsome cluster of tiees.
