Fire destroyed the home of John
Naegeli, east of town on Saturday,
with the furniture as well, which was
a complete loss, with the exception of
a few small articles. It is a mystery
now tiie lire originated. Mr. and Mrs.
Naegeli and children were in the barn
when the fire was discovered, and the
house being so full of smoke it was
impossible to enter. It was only a few
minutes before the house was one
mass of flames. Neighbors hurried to
the scene and the Tillamook Hose
Company rushed there as quickly as
possible and preventing the fire from
extending to the barn. The house was
partly insured, but the fire is a bad
loss to Mr. and Mrs. Naegeli. They

planting loganberries. The club could
have procured a good contract for the
growers had the people of the county
taken the matter up, but now that a
fruit cannery is to be operated in this
city, this will, no doub., stimulate the
loganberry industry in Tillamook
county. It is not generally known, but
the cannerymen prefer Tillamook lo­
ganberries on account of their super­
ior quality.
Merril Smith is looking after Mr.
Graves’ interest here and getting the
matter in shape. We understand that
the cannery plant at Newberg will be
shipped to Tillamook at once, which,
lacked a boiler, but cne has been pur­
chased in this county, Mr. Graves
will be here in a day or so. when
work installing the cannery will com­
mence.
The blackberry and loganberry in­
dustry will give remunerative em­
ployment to a large number of wom­
en and children, and if they are as in­
terested and as active the coming fall
as they were last year, it will give the
canne.y a good supply of berries.
Last year the season was three weeks
late, and should it be earlier this year
a large amount of berries can be
picked by school children before
school commences.

his lack of ability. He is thrown off

The son shows no ability whatever.

See the Round Up atjthe Gem.
In “The Round-Up at Pendleton,
Oregon” the special Pathe three reel
picture to be shown at the Gem
Theatre tomorrow, Friday, April 26,
are shown such thrillers as broncho
busting, wild horse racing, bull-dog­
ging steers, horse breaking by some
of the famous cow girls of the West,
squa races, roping cattle, and riding
them. The observer soon becomes
conscious of the great danger to life
and limb that these contests impose.
There are several instances where
men and girls arc thrown so violently
to the ground before the camera that
they lie senseless and are taken away
to the hospital.
In the bucking horse contests there
is keen competition since the cham­
pionship of the world is involved.
One notes that there are many dif­
ferent kinds of bucking. Some horses
at once rare, prance, around on their
hind legs and fall backward. Some
jump around the arena stiff legged.
Others pitch violently with a recking
chair motion. Still others run at full
speed and then suddenly come to a
stop, frequently flinging their riders
over their heads. And as there are
many bucking horses and other rid­
ers in view at the same time the ac­
tion is continuous and rapid ar.d there
is a thrill every moment.
There is much that is exciting and
dangerous about a wild horse race
and there is considerably comedy as
well as shown in Pathe’s three reel
special “The Round-Up at Pendleton
Oregon,” to be shown at the Gem
Theatre Friday night April 26.
