MIRACULOUS, If TRUE.
Wild Man Supposed To Be A. X. Handy,
Has Boon Seen Near Fall City.

Interest has been revived in this city
regarding the fate of A. K. Handy, who
was lost in the mountains near Fall City
in December of 1898. Mondays Ore
gonian contained the intelligence that
parties in the neighborhood of Fall City
had seen man ragged and disheveled,
whom they believed to be the lost hunter.
Mr.. Joseph Wilson, of this city, SON.
in-law of the missing man, has been in
communication with the authorities of
Polk county, and the facts cleaned in
the matter are these:
On Saturday, of last week, Dial Will
liams, while fishing above Fall City on
the Luckiamute, saw man about ninety
yards distant. He come toward Will
liams, but when within fifty yards of
him, turned and ran back up the creek
Sunday, Williams and two other men
saw the wild man again, and were with
in ffteen feet of him. He had on all
old pair of pants. worn off at the knees !;
no shoes or stockings; vest and shirt
worn off at the elbows, and no hat.
His hair and beard were eight or ten
inches long. He had no knife or other
weapon. On being spoken to, he made
sort of gurgling sound in his throat, and
ran back up the creek. Monday he was
again seen and ran away. Tuesday, 81
men formed search party, but no one
saw him although his tracks were discov-
cred. No search was made Wednesday.
By order of the sheriff of Polk county
three or four men are now camped in the
vicinity where this strange being has
been seen and his capture is almost Ger
tain.
The general opinion in this city seems
10 be that the man is A. K. Handy.
The description. so far as size is con-
cerned, fits him, and the locality in
which he has been seen is right. No one
is able to explain, however, how a man
could subsist through seventeen months
without food or shelter. and no means
of procuring either, particularly, when
for four months Immediately after he
disappeared the mountains were COW
cred with deep snow, and the snow
storms were frequent. If this should be
Mr.. Handy the circumstance would be
little short of miraculous Meanwhile
people are anxious for particulars.

Office, if he would work for our
interests in his administration of
county affairs. Everybody knows
that we have about the smallest
county in the state, that the bust
ness of the clerks Office is the
smallest and that the present
county clerks management is
the most expensive to the tax
payers. If anyone doubts these
statements let him consult the
records and satisfy himself. The

the purchase of books for tram
scribing the records from Benton

Notwithstanding all these mat

oREGON's RESOURCES.
BY Gentleman who Recently Settled in
Our Midst.

Nearly every week there is a
transfer of some farm recorded
In many instances the purchasers
are from some eastern state. A
gentleman who recently arrived
from the east and purchased a
farm, speaks as follows of our state,
especially the Willamette valley:
Oregon has one of the most even
climates in the world, especially the
Willamette valley; the temperature
averaging above 40 above zero in
the winter aud "a in summer. 1t
is not so hot in summer but people
can sleep with cover on their beds.
The state is noted for having no
crop failures, cyclones, hail storms,
lightning, bed bugs, potato bugs,
hog cholera, sheep disease. More
people who have reached ages OF
from 70 to 80 years are seen here
than any other country in the
world.
SIN Benton county the crop yields
are as follows: Wheat from Is to
go bushels per acre; oats, 20 to 70;
barley 20 to 60; buckwheat about
Is; potatoes, 100 to 500; beets rs
tons per acre. All kinds of vege-
tables do we'll.
"Clover, timothy, orchard, rye,
red top, blue and bunch grasses all
do well. The people here recently
demonstrated that clover will do
well, producing wonderful crops of
hay, is fine for pasturing and builds
up the soil.
"Fruits ale raised in abundance,
such as apples, prunes, pears, pluns
and cherries. While in the line of
small fruits there are gooseberries,
dewberries, raspberries, blackber-
ries, strawberries and currants in
great quantities. There are or
chards in this neighborhood con-
tanning as many as $50 acres. Hops
do we'll. There is also plenty of
game and fish.
Corvallis, the county seat Of
Benton county, is very pretty
town of 5000 Inhabitants, situated
in the heart of the valley which
it's name implies. tits SO miles
south OF Portland, the metropolis of
Oregon. In Corvallis are found the
various industries such as sawmills,
Touring mills, ETC., that give sta
bility to a place. The finest college
in the state is located here, the Ore
gon Agricultural college. There is
also superb public school system,
two railroads and as the city is stu
ated on the banks of the William
cite liver, there is also water trans
portation for the various products
of farm and manufactury. The
state Experimental stations are To-
Gated in this city"
There are a great many other fea-
lures of magnitude that the
gentleman could have enumerated
and then the half would not have
been told.
