-Dan Wiles, of Smnkey Hill, lost a
good young team hnrse last Friday In a
rather peculiar way. He bad led the
borse to the watering trough with a hal
ter and when it got frisky gave It a slap
witL the strap. Tbe horse gave a Jump
and escaped from blm, running witb full
speed into a strong woven wire fence.
It struck tbe wire with its head and
turned a complete somersault over tbe
fence, breaking ItB neck
The Council run well was shot yester
day In tbe Speedily sand with a hundred
quart shot. What the explosion developed
cannot yet be said, but it Is doubtful
whether it Is any good. Tbe flow of gas
was materially increased but whether it
is enough to bother witb Is questionable
ibe company is not satislled witb this
test and there is little question but that
another well, probably a thousand or
fifteen hundred feet from this one, will
be drilling within tbe next two weeks
-Tbe rain ot last Sunday was a we
come visitant to this section in more wsys
than one. ;It laid tbe dust which bad
become almost intnlnrable, soaked the
parched earth, and best of all, wet dowu
the woods so as to stay the progress of
forest fires which were breaking out in
many directions. Vegetation has taken
on new life, and If the weather man will
now bring on the sunshine and warmth
again, old Mother Earth will show blm
something in the nature of growing
things that will be worth while,
James G. Carson, contractor lor the
Forest Barge company at West, Hickory,
met with an accident Monday of .last
week which It is feared may cripple blm
for many weeks, If not permanently. He
was using an adze while working in the
barge yard, and by a misstroke tbe sbarpe
blade of tbe adze was sunk deep into the
knee joint of bis left leg cutting a bad
gash and permitting the joint water to
escape. It Is feated this may cause a
permanent stiffness of the knee joint,
Mr. Carson is progressing toward re
oovery, but is likely to be confined to bis
home for several weeks.
Tbe best catch of trout that has been
made in this county ibis season, or any

Frank Witherell, shortly after the open
ing or tbe season, tie was out on two
separate days, bis entire catch amounting
to 30 trout wblcb weighed 91 pounds.
This notable stunt was pulled otf on
Hickory creek, above Endeavor and tbe
trout were all of the native speckled
beauty variety, not a foroign born in Ibe
lot. Frank Is sn expert in Ibis line and
generally makes tbe boys sit op and lake
notice when be comes in from "a day
out," but this latest achievement has put
them all to rout.
M.O. Lelgbton, Chief Hydrographer
of the U. S. Geological Survey, says that
the loss of life and damage to property
caused by the recent Hoods in Ohio and
Indiaua could not have beeu helped by
any human agency. He says that no
reservoir system could be devised to take
care of tbe deluge ol water of such un
precedented proportions, and that the
catastrophe could no more have been
averted than that of tbe San Francisco
earthquake. The Pittsburg flood com
mission should lose no time in looking
into this Important matter. It would
probably have occasion to condemn the
I). S. Geological Survey as a delusion
aud a suare.

Tbe following concerning tbe late W.
A. Shewman is tsken from the Oregon
Cliy (Ore.) Courier, of April 25, 1013:
Died, at St. Vincent's hospital, Port
land, April 21, 1913, W. A. Shewman,
Jr., aged 41 years.
A lew weeks ago at a meeting of tbe
Live Wires, Mr. Shewman was named as
a committee on some industrial enter
prise, wben be stated that be was ready
to leae for a southern trip and it might
be a long time before he returned to tbe
luncheons. None present ever Imagined
that he would never return. Realizing
that his health was fast falling, but not
realizing that be was seriously ill, be
mougni a change or climate and a vaca
lion would benefit blm, and about three
months ago, with bis wife and son, be
went to southern California, expecting to
remain two or three months aud hoping
the sunny clime would give blm renewed
besltb and strength. But bis oonditinu
was more serious than he or bis family
realized, aud he gradually grew worse,
The weather conditions were everything
but sunshine. He contracted a severe
cold and bis condition became aiarmir.g
Consulting tbe best pbyluians, Ibey ad
vised him to return home at once and
place himself under the care of a hospital.
Mr. Sbswmau weighed Ibe chances, real
ized Ibe danger of the operation in bis
weakened condition, but went to tbe
operating table witb a sin lie. Rev. Bow-
en, of Portland, administered the sacra
ment, aod to him and bis wife be said be
would take tbe chances without fear aud
submit to tbe verdict. Tbe verdict was
death. The case was too serious for re
covery In bis weakened condition.
Tbe morning of tbe day of bis death
ne greetea nis wue ana nurses with a
cheery good morning, and during tbe
day talked with Mrs. Shewman several
times. He was without pain and fully
conscious. During tbe afternoon tbe doc
tors and nurses saw tbat tbe end was
near and at four o'clock be told bis wire
that he was very tired.
"Why don't you go to sleep it will be
best for you now," she said.
"I may not awaken," he replied.
"But you are not afraid, are you?"
"No, I am not afraid. I am going to
sleep."
Arraugingtbe pillows Mrs. Shewniau
asked, "Now shall I kiss you good-nigbtr"
"Yes, and kiss me good-bye," be re
plied. And Iben, as a babe falls to sleep, with
out a pain, a tremor, ho closed biB eyes
for tbe everlasting sleep.
Mr. Shewmsn was born in Geneva, N.
Y., in 1872, and would have been 41 years
old In May. Wben an infant his parents
moved to Randolph, N. Y., where bis
father, W. A. Shewman, was owner of
tbe Raudolpb. Register for many years,
and ber tbe son grew to manhood, and
was later associated witb bia father In
business. In 1897 be was married to
Vernah W. Shewman, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Geo. F. Watson, then residing
at Golinza, now of Tionesta, Pa., and soon
after moved to Gallon, Ohio, where tbey
ived for some time, and later went to
Buffalo, N. Y., where be was staff artist
on tbe Times, afterwards going to Penn
sylvania, where he was for six years as
sociated with bis father-in-law in business
at Kellettville. In 1907 be came to Port
land tbe following year bought the Cour
ier st Oregon City, which be edited and
managed for four years, aud during this
time be also purchased and managed the
Albany Herald, later selling tbe Herald
Iu January, 1912, be sold tbe Courier to
M. J. Brown and A. E. Frost, aud be
came editor of the Western Stock Jour
nal, which position be beld at Ibe time of
his recent illness. His wife, Mrs. Vernab
Shewman, mother, Mrs. Josepbin
Shewman, son, Alon, and sister, Mrs,
Tyra Warren, are living at Risley.
Will Shewman will be greatly missed
In Oregon City. Big hearted, generous to
a fault, always good oat u red and sunny
always Inking part in any project for do
ing things such a man leaves a vacancy
bard lo fill. One splendid trait was his
love of children. He was the friend of
the little folks and Ibey were bia friends,
The Courier editor was raised in tb
same county with Mr. Shewniau, worked
for years with him In tbe newspaper work
