Report was received last evening that
about s o'clock Monday afternoon, a
Russian named John Halen, who It is
understood was a runaway sailor and
was then working for a milkman on
the Lewis and Clarke, was drowned in
that river. 1t seems that he started
from the ranch in a boat and that the
boat was afterwards found floating in
the stream, empty. and the milk cans
scattered on the tide lands. So far no
trace Of the man has been found. One
theory is that he was caught In the
driftwood Under the bridge, and was
knocked overheard.
