at the southeast corner of Sixth avenue
East, and Second street and will move

A Close Shave.

A Benton county mans team
came pretty near causing serious
trouble Tuesday evening. The
following account is given by the
Herald: L. Williamson, who
lives at Wells, Benton county,
was preparing to start home,
when his team became frighten-
ed at some iron pipe which he
was placing in the wagon, and
ran away. The team headed
across the big bridge at full
speed, and about midway met
Mrs. M. E. Prettyrnan, her son
aud daughter in buggy. The
runaway team collided with the
latter, but strange to say the
heavy lumber wagon was over
turned and the team stopped,
without damage to the buggy or
occupants. The harness of both
teams was broken to pieces, and
it was remarkable that no greater
damage was done. Mrs. Pretty
mans FIRST impulse, when she
saw the runaway team coming,
was to jump out, but she
could only leap in front of the
oHcoming horses or over the side
of the bridge about 100 feet into
the river, so she sat still which
fortunately was the best thing,
resulting very luckily for all con-
cerned.

Fingers and Thumbs.

A couple of gentlemen who
attracted attention on the streets
| of Corvallis, Wednesday, were
j. w. Harvey and S. M. Fry.
Both gentlemen carried their left
arm in a sling. In speaking OF
the matter they stated that they
had both been employed at Kalt-
riders shingle mill, a few miles
southwest of Dusty, and had
come in contact with the shingle
saw. Mr.. Harvey met with his
calamity a few days before Mr..
Fry met with his unfortunate ac-
cident. Mr.. Harvey had two
fingers cut off by the saw, one of
which was stuck on again, and
the hand otherwise lacerated.
He states that his accident was
the result of carelessness to some
degree. Mr.. fry says he was
operating in the mill as an
all-around man and trying to
attend two jobs at once when his
thumb was severed. He laughed
and said he never knew where it
went to, so he had no chance to
stick it on again.
Both gentlemen are making
the most of the matter, and jok-
ingly remarked that when they
drove to town each held rein
on the horse, that in tying their
shoes they operate a string each,
and at the table one uses the
knife and the other the fork.
Hence it will be seen that, if
misfortune was to be the portion,
it was good thing for them that
it came almost simultaneously.
