DRAIN ITEMS.

In our town, the supply of items worthy of
being reported, has been scarce for week or
two. The storms keep every body indoors
and even the farmers DO not come to town
except for necessary supplies.
Jimmy Sterling is still kept in the house by
illness.
The principle signs of life are in the Normal
School, which was never so prosperous as ii is
right now. The next term begins Monday,
Feb. s, and large number of new students
will be enrolled then. The Normal class is a
source ofjust pride to the friends of the school.
There will be an Evolutionary and dramatic
Entertainment on Friday of next week, at the
Chapel a crowded house is anticipated
The students are preparing themselves Tor
Bro. Bells lecture on Hamlet which they
expect at an early day.
Miss My tile Russell has just purchased a
hne piano, and thereby adds largely to the
rapidly growing taste for refining influence of
music in our town.
Our good friend Callwell is kept in the
house by a lame leg, which gives him a
season Of leisure to reflect on the errors OF his
ways. Maybe he will give up being an in
surance agent when he gets well. Who
knows?-
There was a very pleasant gathering on
Thursday evening of last week, at the resi-
dcnce OF the Misses McCalistcr. 1t was
largely attended and the result was delightful
evening.
One ofthe great blunders of the last legisla-
ture, was the bill which endcavored to patch
up the method ofapproprating school moneys
to the several districts. The present plan Of
giving each district fifty dollars before the
per capita distribution, simply offers pre-
MUM on the formation OF ir,practicably small
districts, while il weakens the power for good
of the larger districts. We venture the asser
tion that the annual report of the county
Superintendent will show large decrease
in the number of months of public school
taught IN Douglas County. The next lesisla-
ture should repeal this absurd law.

TUO N.IRRO ESC.IPE.S.

We chronicle some events which occurred
last week at Camas valley, as near as we can
ascertain, are about rs follows: Mr. ii. NJ.
Dumplc,on with others went out into the
mountains To hunt game, Dumplcton followed
an elk track along distance from his compan-
ions and heavy fall of snow obiteratcd the
elk track and not being able TO folloys it fur
ther and consequently unable TO rctrace his
own, became lost and wandered about in the
mountains for four days, when he was found
in an exhausted condition by search party
that was organized in the valley. Ills hands
ana feet were frozen and he was finally carried
in litter 10 the residence of Mcssrs. John
and Henry Stanley where he was properly
cared for; DIR. Graham Of Roscburg was called
TO attend him and found it necessary TO am
putate part of the left foot and thinks his hands
and the other foot can be saved. After DIR.
Graham was able TO leave Dumplcton for 4
short time he was called TO see sick lady two
miles distant. Mr.. Wiley who was present
having two horses and a buggy at the gate,
proposed to convey the doctor to the residence
of his patient and back. All went well unti
they came TO the middle fork of the Coqllle
River. MIR. Wiley mistaklng the depth, of
the water at the ford which was over ten feet
in depth, drove into the stream, the swift
tr ong currant turning the swimming horses
and buggy down the stream, the buggy turning
over. DIR. Graham caught hold Of sbme
small boughs from an over hanging tree I7on
the bank of the stream, which enabled hinA to
keep his head above water, for long half
hour, when he was rescued from his perilous
position by parties residing near the ford.
Without their timely assistance he would not
have been able to reach the shore Mr..
Wiley and his team hoated down the stream
considerable distance and coming in contact
with drift wood succeeded in cutting the har-
ness from his horses when they swan to the
banks of the stream; when he succeeded in
gaining the land, leaving his buggy and har-
ness IN the water
