THEY SWIM THERE.
Made Swimming Pond by Ar.
tificial Means on Benton
Farm.

They have a swimming pond
down on the farm of Robert Wylie.
near Mountain View, and the
neighborhood has organized into a
swimming club. The pond covers
an acre Of ground and in the Deep
est half is eight or nine feet deep,
and in other parts four or five feet
shallower. 1t is formed by a big
dam built by Mr.. Wylie with the
swimming idea in view, as we'll as
for other purposes, notable among
was to get power to lift water into
the tank at his home. A member
ship fee of 81 is charged except for
children under 10 years who are
allowed swimming privileges free.
A set of rules and regulations has
been printed for the use of members
They provide that men shall
have the use of the pond Mondays
and Wednesdays, women on Tues
days and Thursdays, boys, Fridays
in the forenoon. and girls Friday
afternoons. The pendis is described
as an immense source of pleasure
to the neighborhood during these
hots days.

WANT FOUNTAIN.
Farmers do, Says This one
So Thirsty Teams can be
Watered.
Editor TIMES:

Editor TIMES:
In a late issue of yours. I
noticed an article relative to drink
ing fountains in Corvallis. Long
ago, away back in the dark ages
when white men lived in Corvallis
some worthy man, ''Requiescat in
pace" placed water trough for
horses on the corner opposite the
Occidental hotel. Here could be
found liquid refreshment for man
and beast. These good old times
have passed away and Our beauti-
full burg is a very dry town. The
county or city in its wisdom has
placed fancy iron water trough
north of the court house., This is
of course very good, as far as it
goes, but it does not go very far,
moreover, not one farmer in 10
knows about it, and not one in
fifty will bring his horses up that
far for water.
would respectfully suggest to
the city fathers Or whosoever it may
concern, that what is needed is a
good solid watering place conven
ient to where farmers usually hitch
their teams, and large enough for
three or four teams to water at one
time. Such a structure might con-
veniently be built at the foot of
Jefferson street north Of Ben Woldts
building or north of S. L. Kline S
warehouse.
No need to send to Italy for
Parian marble, a good solid wood
en- one will answer the purpose as
we'll or better. Say a good stout
oak vat 3 or feet in diameter by
one or one and half feet deep
would contain 40 or so gallons.
This mounted on a stout platform
about six or eight feet square and
about two feet high fed by a one
inch pipe with waste pipe near top
to carry off surplus water placed in
the center of the street. so that
teams could drive up and water on
all four sides. A separate faucet
and few drinking cups might
be added, The whole thing neatly
made and painted would be by no
means unsightly, and need not cost
not including water and water pip
ing, over $40 or $25. It would be
appreciated by many thirsty
horse and m IN, during the hot dry
summer.

WHERE GOLD IS.
And When They Mine It-A
Fifty Dollar Nugget
Brady Burnett.

After an absence of eight months,
Brady Burnett arrived Saturday
from Douglas County, where he is
engaged in mining. He has both
quartz and placer mines at a point
east of the railroad 13 miles from
Canyonville and IS miles from Rid
die, copper being his best prospect
in the quartz. The lodges in the
latter are extensive, and the as
says good. A magnificent nugget
that weighs nearly $51 is one of the
finds that Brady carries with him
as a product Of his placer mines.
It was found one day on bed rock
while sluicing was in progress.
The placer mine is worked with
little giant hydraulic grange
ment. 1t is vastly different from
the old rocker or pan with which
the early-day miners worked at
placer diggings. It throws a stream
from four and a half inch nozzle
distance of several hundred feet.
The force is SO great that large
boulders that man cannot lift are
thrown about like pebbles by the
pressure of the water. By the
process, immense quantities of
earth and gravel are worked over
every day. Unfortunately for all
purposes, the water supply is
only available for a few weeks in
the year. The run this season
when the water was abundant only
lasted 40 days. A less abundant
supply of course is available for a
considerably longer period, but op-
erations for that time are not so ct
fective. During the good water
supply the run is from daylight to
dark with not minute of time
lost on any account. The excite
ment at such times, especially
when there is a good pay streak is
intense, and the miner sighs when
it is too dark to work longer, and is
out with eagerness to resume opera
tions with the first signs of the
coming dawn.
Apropos to the nugget found by
Mr.. Burnett, Douglas county
man in order to get a nugget val
ued at only SIS, killed his neigh
Dor named Graham. The nugget
itself was one of the main reliances
of the prosecution in fixing Barnes
guilt. 1t was a peculiar nugget
and it was found on Barnes person.
They also found, Graham S revolver
secreted under Barnes house. The
case was appealed to the supreme
court. and the lower court was af-
frmed by a decision handed down
a few days ago. Barnes is to be
hanged.
Mr.. Burnett is off for good va
cation and will spend much of his
time in Corvallis and vicinity.

ONLY BY SCRATCH.
Escaped Drowning in Ocean
They Drove on Beach
One Horse Drowned.

At the Newport sea beach they have
already had one accident, though
the season is scarcely begun. A
driving party narrowly escaped
death, the other evening, says the
Herald, one of the horses being
drowned.
The party was composed of G..
Mason and H. Simpson, of Harris
burg, Miss Anna Baker of Turner,
and Miss Aida Cannon of Myrtle
Creek. Mason was driving. They
were returning from a trip to va
quina Head light station and 9t-
tempted to drive around a point op-
posite, Jump-off Joe. Mason was
not familiar with the beach and the
tide was at half rise. making it
impossible to pass that way, which
is dangerous even at low water.
He drove into the water so deep
that the horses lost their footing,
fell down and became entangled in
the harness. One Of the animals
was drowned. The occupants of
the hack were thrown out but clung
to the vehicle. The accident for
tunately was witnessed by Paul
Chatterton and others, who hurried
to the scene and reached it in time
to rescue the party from drowning.
They also saved one horse by cut
ting the harness away. The ami
NAL was nearly drowned and had to
be hauled out with another team
and line. The rescuers had to work
in water UP to their shoulders.

WOr1an's Trials.

Inc bitter trail in a woman's life Is ia
be childless. Who can tell how hard the
resign herself to her lonely lot? The ab-
sence of this link to bind marital life
together, the absence of this one pledge
TO mutual affection is common diSap-
pointment. Many unfortunate couples
become estranged thereby. Even if they
90 not drlft apart, one may read the whole
extent OF their disappointment in the eyes
OF such a childless couple when they rest
on the children Of others. To them the
largest family does not seem too numerous.
In many cases of barrenness or child
lessness the obstacle to child-bearing is
the part OF the woman. DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorlte Prescription has been the means of
restoring health and fruitfulness to MANY
a barren woman, to the great Joy of the
household. In other, but rare cases, the
obstruction to the bearing of children has
been found to be of a surgical character,
but easily removable by painless operative
treatment at the Invalids' Hotel and Sur
glcal Institute. Buffalo, n. Y, over which
DIR. Pierce of the rFavorite Prescription"
fame presides. In all cases where chill
dren are desired and are absent. an effort
since it is generally so easily removed by
proper treatment.
In all the various weaknesses, displace-
ments, prolapsus, Inflammation and de-
Dllltatlng, catarrhal drains and in all
cases OF nervousness and debility, Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the most
efficient remedy that can possibly be used.
1t has to its credit hundreds of thousands
OF cures more in fact than any other
remedy put up for sale through druggists,
especially for woman's use. The ingredi-
ents OF which the uFavorite Prescription"
is composed have received the most
positive endorsement from the leading
medical writer's on Mdteria Medic0 of all
the several schools of practice All the
ingredients are printed IN plain English
on the wrapper enclosing the bottle, so
that any woman making use of this
famous medicine may know exactly what
she is taking. DIR Pierce takes his pa
tients into his full confidence, which he
can afford to do as the formula after
made will bear the most careful exam
ination.
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are the
best and safest laxative for women.

CORVALLIS, OREGON,
TUESDAY EVENING JULY 10, 1906.
DELA YED ADMINISTRATIONS

The stewardship of the county
court that has just retired from Of
fee, was the subject of a report
printed in Tuesdays TIMES. In
the passing of that court Benton
county loses one of the most pro-
gressive and wideawake admins
trations that has ever directed its
business affairs. No court at any
time has ever manifested greater
zeal or more indefatigible effort in
betterlng the public roads No
court of any county, at any time
has held more constantly in view
the promotion of the best interests
of the county in every particular.
Though the county tax levy has
been uniformly low, the debt OF
$22 900 was wiped out and the
county kept out of debt until by the
purchase of the county poor farm,
the erection of a county ferry house
and other permanent expenditures
in the last weeks of the administra-
ton a small Indebtedness was re-
created. In substantial bridges,
in permanent road improvements
and in other ways, Mr.. Waters and
his colleagues left landmarks all
over the county that will stand as
enduring monuments of the pro-
gressiveness and substantial char
acter of their administration of
county affairs. Down in the future
it is extremely probable that the
Waters court, comprising Mr..
Waters, Mr.. Jolly, Mr.. Rickard
and Mr.. Irwin, will be looked back
as b model of live administration.
