OCCUPANTS SHAKEN IN BUSJiUNAWAY Fractious Horses Speed With Man and Babes Powerless To Act. That wbich resulted in a near fatal ity to W. E. Neilson and two small children, of Atlanta, Ca., occurred last Thursday evening when the team hitched to the Lakeview Transfer Company bus, wbicb conveva passen gers to and from the local depot, ran away while Mr. Neiison pnd children were in the vehicle. Harry Vernon, driver of the bus, meantime with the two children bad entered the bus, the mother and three other children remaining on the ground. The bus has but one entrance, that in the rear, and the sides and top are enclosed with curtains. The horses, which are naturally very bigb spirited. started without any apparent fright. Mr. Vernon t-acceeded in seizing the bridle bit of one horse, but was unable to check their speed and wa thrown after holding to the animal for some distance. . Mr. Neilson states that he was at first unaware that the horses were running away, he presuming that the driver was on the seat. But the gain- ing speed and rock of the wagon led to an investigation and he discovered that the lines were dragging on the ground.

OREGON EXHIBIT . CONSIDERED DEST Many Parties Are Making: Inquiries at the Chicago Land Show. Portland, Ore. Dec. 2 Special A telegram from Manager U. C. Chap man, in charge of the Oregon exhibit at Chicago, states that his section of the show is crowded at all times by farmers and others eager to secure first-hand information regarding this state. The Oregon display is declared by competent judges to be by far the best at the show when quality, variety and effectiveness of staging are con sidered. Mr. Chapman and his assist ant are kept busy all dav and every evening in answering the vast number of inquiries showered upon them by people of every class. The demand, for public talks and lecturers on Ore gon and the Pacific Northwest gener ally is almout too great to be satisfied. A nine pound babv girl was born to Mr. and Mrs. .0. E. THnk last Sunday afternoon at their home on Cotton wood a few miles northwest of town, Portland, Oregon, December 1. I am In receipt of the following letter which is typical of tho many inquiries In regard to our Ana River project : Aspen, Colo., Nov. 11, 1913. Messrs. Mallerv A Sain. Faialey, Oregon. Pear Sirs: 1 are by the Lake County Kxamlnor that you are advertising land in Mum : mer Lake. And as I think It a good Idealism writing for more informs I lion concerning it. I would like to I know if a man can work all winter, and how long the work will last, and if he will be near enough to the land to improve it. Respectfully, Wm. Gay. 1 wih to answer this for all. A man can work all winter in Summer Lake valley. We worked thirty men all list winter and lost but few days tn account of stormy weather. The construction work will last two or three years or more and then there will be work on cultivated land and in mills. lie will be near enough to the con struction wora t live on his land and Improve it at the same time. Perbsps he will be assigned to the ditch through his own Isnd. He will work eight hours for us and then nave an boor or two for himself to clear his Isnd of sagebrush, put up fences or buildings. we intend to pay luit a little more than the current rate of wage's. Ot crnroe it will take most of next sum mer to dry up enough of the bed of Summer Lske to make improvements nn the lake bed. But we will irrigate shout twenty tboussnd acres of shore lands some of which la still open to desert and homestead entries. I'y the way, I lived six years at Api'n. Colorado, where 1 was city eilitor of the Aspen Daily Times, al though I do rot krow Mr. Gsy who makes Inquiry. We have added .Mr. Mimr of Port land nnd Mr. Arbuckle of Paisley to our engineering force. Our chief en- neer, Mr. Gardner, finds from his topogrnphirnl survey that he csn rsitte the Ana KJver dam still soother four feet, making the height forty-live teet. This necessitates a complete new survey of the ditch lines. And tesms cannot be put on. till these surveys are made. Each additional foot on the dsms, Mr. Gsrdner writes, will in cresse the irrigated area a thousann acres. j Mr. Mallery and 1 have signrd a tentative agreement for the sate of tne property. The first money Is to he paid as soon as the lawyers pas on the abstract of title wbich should be some time this montb. Senator W Lair Thompson is attorney for Mallery & Sain, Attorney General Crawford is representing the Btste of Oregon, and Howard McWIlliams, of New York, the American Soda and Potash company. The purchaser of course bss his own attorneys. The new corporation, as now agreed upon, Ms to have a capitalisation of twentvfonr million dollars. Four million dollara la tc be expended in the development gf Summer aod Abert takes. Their full development of course will man the expenditure of a great deal more than this. The present status- if the ownership is this: Mr. Mallery and I own fifty one per cent of the one million capital stock of the American Soda and Potash iiompany. We own all of Ana River. Title to both of these interests stand in mv name. Thus I am in a position to assure the fulfillment of any con tract that is entered into. Our superintendent, Mr. Chas. H. Keith, is ful'y empowered to make contracts for the sale of Ana River water rights. Water rights will never sgain be as low as they are now. Ana River water righta are the lowest price of the state, and Summer Lake Is the Usrden Valley of Central Oregon. It Is the intention of the new pur chaser to raise the price of Ana River water rights, if he secures the prop erty. The managment will then have passed out of my bands. But any agreemennt entered into with Mr. Keith for the purchase of water rights under the Ana River system before the actual transfer of the property takes place will have to be ratiUed. A word to the wise is sufficient. C. M. SAIN. F. 0. WIIITTAKER PNEUMONIA VICTIM Clover Flat Resident Died Yesterday M o r n I n e In Lakeview. .
