The Camners ~ Manic Dell.

The Campers at Maple Dell.
At present there are thirteen camps
here with total population of 45.
Reverend Hollinshead OF the Portland
Centenary NJ. e. church was here last
week.
John Malone was with the Wood
worth-Shaffer camp one day, and pitying
them because OF their lack OF fish, he
went out and brought in deer.
Messrs. vanHyse, Woodwork, Shaffer,
Fleming, Mr.. and Mrs Ed Williams,
Mr. and Mrs. Noah Bone, ]. H. Fergu-
son, Norman Young, Pansy and Mar
jory Baker, Nellie Rogers, Mrs. Reese,
Mr.. Meldon and Mr.. Kelly were at Lost
lake fishing for water dogs recently.
Judge Henry still holds first place
among the fishermen, with David Flem-
ing close second. G. d. Woodworth,
however, is forging to the front. His
marvellous success is the wonder Of the
whole camp. In seven days he has
brought in nine fish, tomorrow's catch
not included.
Henrys, Howes, McGuires, Hunts,
Jacksons. Woodworths, Skaters, Met
calls, Cashiers, Fletchers, Hollis, Shaws,
and Bakers, besides those already mem
toned, are ''at home" at Maple Dell.

dress parade. A number Of snap shots

The little girl of Mr.. and Mrs. L. A.
Shaw Of Portland was drowned Satur-
day afternoon, while Mrs. Shaw mar
rowly escaped. Much credit is due
Walter Mcclure, Mr.. Holt and several
sheepherders, whose names we failed
to get, for their strenuous efforts in res
cuing Mrs. Shaw and recovering the
body Of the little girl. Everything pos
sible was done and blame attaches to
no one. From the human view point it
was an accident, but viewed by the eter-
nal it is possibly a Providence the wis
dom of which will be revealed in the
coming days. H. G. S.
Rev. j. w. Jenkins, OF Hood River
delivered very interesting lecture at
the U. b. church Wednesday evening,
on the Island OF Jamaica" where Mr..
JenkiEs spent over three years engaged
in missionary work. The lecture was
replete with information concerning the
island, its people, manners, customs,
religion, etc, and was very Interestingly
illustrated by fine lot Of stereopticon
views. II is to be regretted that his
audience was not larger, as all who at
tended express themselves we'll pleased.
