Read of His Own Death.

Mr.. Fred Hertz will make final nroof
on his homestead at The Dalles land
office next month. Mr.. Hertz about
three years ago had an experience that
own death and was mnurned by his
friends as having crossed the dark
river. The circumstances of his re-
ported death were as follows: He had
met with an accident in saw mill
and received injuries to his head
which caused loss of memory. and he
sometimes was nable 10 recognize
aequaiptances Realizing that some.
tbIrg was wrong with him. without
saying anything to his friends he de-
cided to go to Portland and consult
the advice of physicians. None of his
acquaintances saw him leave, but the
last seen of him he was sittinv on
rock on the river bank near Viento.
A few days after his disappearance the
body of a man was found washed
ashore on a point of land some distance
