ing impossible on account of dirt, pa
per and other particles of floating debris.

companied by another electrical storm,
owing to which many telegraph lines are
out of service and some are down.
The Western Lithograph company was

BY SCORE OF 10 TO o.
Academy Has Not Been Scored Against
This Season.

The Hutchinson High school team went
down to defeat yesterday afternoon at
the hands OF the Lewis academy eleven
by a score Of 10 to O.
The game was played on the Paramount
grid iron
The weather man was expected TO have
a change for the better in the weather
but he failed to make good. The grounds
were partly under water. however, which
was better than was expected. Although
there was a marked absence Of wrang-
ling, the personal appearance Of the
players when they got back 10 town in
dicated that it was a dirty game.
Lewis kicked off in the first half;
Eutchison made good gains for a time,
but lost the ball on downs and Lewis
soon sent it over the line for a touch
down
Hutchinson again kicked off and the
remainder of the half was played near
the center Of the field, neither side max
ing much gain.
4 In the second half Hutchinson took a
brace and made good gains for a time
but Lewis held Rem for downs and adj
vanced the ball steadily, making five yard
gains at a time On the five yard line
Hutchinson secured the ball on a tumble
bue Immediately lost it again in the same
way. Small for Lewis took it over the
line for a touchdown. Hutchinson kick
ed off just as time was called with the
ball on the academys 40 yard line.
The academy eleven is playing good ball
this year, though they have met some
of the best high school teams in this
part of the state, no team has yet been
able to take the ball over their guard
line
The academy team will go TO Hutchin-
son next Saturday for a return game.

Cross-Eyes Explained.

I Will endeavor 10 explain in as few
words as possible the cause of a great
many cases of cross-eye.
When the vision OF one eye is much
better lhan that of the other, a person
naturally uses the better eye the most.
Now if there be considerable degree OF
hyperopia or far-sightedness in the eyes.
they must. in order to see distinctly at
any distance. use an amount of accom-
modalion equal 10 the amount Of error.
Whenever the accommodation is brought
into play. the muscles which turn the
eye inward also contract. Thus. IL the
image in one eye is SO poor as TO be
easily suppressed. that eye turns in. and
strabismus. or cross-eye. results.
If this defect is taken in lime 1t may
be easily corrected by properly adjusted
lenses. have made this subject a spe-
ciar study for great many years. and
can correct IL without any great expense

I have cured. and viii be pleased 10 re-

The following has been received from

ed overland from Yakima to Oregon on
the End of last June. A complete diary
of the trip sent us by a daughaer of
Mrs. Foster, is very interesting, but too
long for publication:
"We are located for the winter at
Bandon, fourishing little town of
about 600 inhabitants, situated at the
mouth of the Coquille river. The prin-
cipal industries are dairying, stockrais-
ing and numbering. There is large
wooden mill, fish cannery. match fac
tory and broom factory. Large ves-
sels land here, and labor is in demand
at good wages. We have taken up land
3 IL miles south of Bandon, within one
half mile of the sea wall The soil is a
black sand comparatively level, and
produces all the cereals. There are a
number of claims adjoining ours or
near us that are yet vacant. The sum-
mer is cool here, and the winter warm,
the variation of the temperature being
only Is to II degrees. Come over and

A Peculiar Accident.

The Gle Elum Echo of last week thus
describes queer happening in that
town:
Mr.. Harry Fielding farmer, of
Swauk prairie. was in the city Friday
evening and met with an accident which
very probably will prove fatal.
In a spirit of good fellowship Mr..
Fielding challenged Elmer Height to a
wrestling match. which was accepted
and in falling. in some unknown man.
ner, Mr.. Fielding's neck was thrown out
of place. which resulted in immediate
paralysis of the entire body. No one
was more surprised than the unfortu-
nate man at his inability to get on his
feet and As he suffered no pain he could
not understand his helpless condition.
He was removed to the residence of
I. M. Jones. where an examination TO-
suited in a.certaining that hi- neck was
virtually broken. Monday physicians
succeeded in getting the neck back into
place, and hopes are entertained of re-
covery though such eases usually prove
fatal
Mr.. fielding's wife and children were
notified of the accident and arrived in
town Saturday. and have been with him
since
