architect, was the victim of a sensational
balloon accident In company with Miss
Olney he went to Blairs Point, near Oak

air the child chung to one of the glv rones
and was carried up. The aeronaut heard
the shouts of the people not to cut loose
his parachute, and obeyed not knowing
the reason. When a thousand or more feet
up he heard the boys cries and saw a cap
come fiuttering down. He called out to his
unseen companion to hold on, and made
every effort to save him, but in vain, for
soon the child's body shot by him and was
crushed out of shape when il struck the
earth.

LAYING THE CORNERSTONE.
The Lutheran Church Observes the
Time-HOnOred Custom.

The laying of the cornerstone of the
Lutheran church took place yesterday
according to programme, there being
about 400 present. The services we're
conducted according to the Lutheran
ritual by Revs. W. c. Curtis of the Con-
gregational church and L. Grey, pastor
of the Lutheran church. The address
by Rev. DeForest of the Episcopal
church was brief but fine resume of the
history of Lutheranism, which held the
close attention of all present. The line
of argument was: ''That the Lutheran
church was the true Catholic church, in
full keeping with the apostolic or early
church. 1t has the sacraments of the
ancient church, and continues the lit
urgy and forms of the ancient church.
Although it was unfortu nate in losing
the Episcopate, yet it has an unbroken
chain of Presbyterian succession
The music, an anthem a nd two hymns,
was rendered by the Congregational
choir in an excellent manner.
The following articles were deposited
in the cornerstone:
copy of the Bible.
Copy of Lutheran church book, in
Guiding hymnaI
Complete copy of Luth eran rituals.
Copy of Lutheran confessions.
Copy of the constitution of this church.

More Trouble.

Misfortunes never come single, at least
George Alick found this the case recent
ly. The day after his wedding he was
arrested, charged with larceny. There
was no proof to substanriate that charge,
but while he was in the clutches of the
law his step-mother put in an appear
ance and persuaded the girl to leave
George. Now that he has regained his
freedom, he cannot find his bride.
George is not yet 20 years, and yet in
three brief years he has managed to be
married three times, and to have lost all
his wives, each of whom in turn has left
him. He Is persistent, though, and be-
lieves with Milne, "'Tis better to have
loved and lost than never to have loved

JOHN DURRIry I is DEAD.

county, Pennsylvania, September 13,
1874. His birth antedated the death of
George Washington five years. He did
service as lieutenant in the war of 1912,
and lived through the Mexican and
civil wars. He knew what Indian war
fare was from having lived among the
Indians. In 1900 Mr.. Durbin moved
from his native state to Richmond

settled in Marion county, where he

lived an active life, giving most of his

Some of the farmers OF Lincoln county
evidently expect to realize a handsome
margin on their labor this year. Glas-
Cow & Mclean, who owned a third in
terest in a field of $50 acres of wheat,
sold their interest in the crop last week
to George Huffman for $1,000. Their
share in the 250 acres was 83 acres aud
fraction. This gives fair idea of what
farmers expect to make this fall, when
they thus calculate on clearing $1,000
over all expenses on SO acres. This field
of grain is no better than scores of other
fields all over the county.
B. F. Brock, of Eufaula, in Wahkia-
KUN, has nearly four miles of his new
logging railroad graded and ready for
Nkhe ties and iron. The present road is
thee and half miles long, and is con-
strdcted for the most part of 40-pound
stee rails. The roadbed is IN excellent
condition and carefully ballasted; the
ties are sawed and the grades have been
reduced to the lowest possible limit.
The road is narrow gauge, and is equipp-
ed with two locomotives and plenty of
cars. The extension of the road crosses
some canyons, where it lie necessary to
erect trestle work 35 feet high.
The committee appointed by the Com
mercial club to examine the route of the
proposed railroad to the Deschutes per-
formed its labors yesterday. The COM
mlttee took with it Mr.. Johnson, rail-
road surveyor, and will report to the
Club at once. The grade was found to
be much easier than was expected, not
exceeding 1 per cent coming from the
Deschutes, and p per cent going out.
The summit is about 900 feet above The
7 palles, and the road to the Deschutes at
the foot of Rattlesnake grade will be %
! hiles in length. The cost would be be-
| tween $4,000 and $4,000 mile to build
and equip the road. The committee is
strongly in favor of having a survey
made. -

soldier Of the First regiment of the

The whole Of this remark seemed SO
obviously addressed to one person

burst into laugh and said, "very

not worry you any more. Youth Is
