Oscar HeaberliD, of Portsmouth,
freight engineer on the N. 81 w
railway, has established a record
that so far as known wac never
equalied in the world. His time
for the month of August called for
81 days and his check totaled 1896

Mr.. Heaberlin might have beaten
this record had his wife not taken
sick, and he was compelled to lose
some time. He stood the ordeal
well and apparently is none the
worse of for his experience. He is
one of the smallest engineers on the
road, being but five feet, 4 inches
tall and weighing less than I25
pounds. But he is az sound as a
nut and says he will beat bis recent
record before he gives up the
throttle. --Ironton Irontonian.
Mr.. Heaberlin was formerly a
resident Of Kenova and while be il
small in stature, he has an iron
constitution. Oscar does not fail

view when leaving terminal

possible. He usually gets there,
too, when the dispatcher does not
tell him to quit running so fast.

PURE WATER FOR FREEWATER
Supply to Cost $35, 900 Will Be Obtain
ed From Walla WalIa River.

At an adjourned meeting Of the
Freewater city council in the council
chamber Saturday evening, the fran
chise for installing, operating and
maintaining public water system
which was presented by City Engineer
Charles L. Swain. and Howard Evans,
passed its first reading.
The voting by the councilmen for
the franchise was unanimous, and the
general public of Freewater are jubi-
liant at the prospects of having city
water works. The water supply will
be obtained from up the mountains.
l miles, and it is estimated that $40
tons or 20 carloads of two, three and
four-inch pipe will be required for the
installing at an approximate cost of
$S5, 1000. The system has to be under
construction within IS months. and
will mean for Freewater another ris-
ing in real estate values, which have
been so greatly augmented since the
incoming of the Walla Walla Valley
Traction company.

MULES HANDLED WITH MACHINE
The Bell Teams Having Their Hoofs
Trimmed at Buel's Shop.

That sound of clanking chains and
wIecking timbers that has emanated
from Buel's blacksmith shop, is worthy
of explanation.
For the past two days, James Bell 8
mule teams have been in the hands of
Mr.. mayor of Grandview
and professional mule chiIopodist. as
sisted by Mr.. Frank Bowlen and Buel's
horse-shoeing machine for the purpose
of having the surplus hoof growth re-
moved. And it is interesting to wit
ness the hoof trimming.
The mule, in the first place, is coax
ed. bribed or forced into the shop. He
is snaked up to the wall and made fast
to a ring. stout rope halter with
four tying straps, is slipped on his head
and made fast at four different angles.
A gate rigging soon encloses him on
each side and breast piece and rear
strap is pulled in proper place.
Then Mr.. mule makes lunge or two
then stands. A roll of canvass rolls up
by windlass beneath him. aud as he
feels himself being lifted frcm the
floor there is more lunginR.
A rod with foot clutch is next in
troduced and before the animal is
aware of it. the clutch snaps on the
ankle of the foreleg just above the
hoof. The leg is lifted from the floor
with crank mechanism and the foot
is in position for. carving. Another
huge lunge as the pairing process be-
gins and the mule gives up.
Twenty-Five head of Mr.. Bells
mules have had their hoofs trimmed
at the Buel shop since Monday. These
mules are placed in the shoeing ma
chine twice year for this purpose.

PROSPECTS Were Never Better
In Athena District.
.PALOUSE AND UMAT|LLA LEAD
In Big Bend and Walla Walla Valley
Prospects Not Bright High
Prices Assured.

"Umatilla county and the Palouse
will harvest the largest crop of grain
in the history of wheat raising in these
districts, this year." said Alva Leach,
general agent for the Kerr Clifford
company.
"I have just completed trip which
covered completely the district men,
toned and in no year at the present
stage of the growing crop, have l seen
the prospects equaled. But you have
it in a nutshell in these localities this
year.
1.-THE crop of the Big Bend, in the
Ritzville territory and in the Colum-
bia river counties in Oregon, this
year is several shades below standard
in prospect at this time. The Big
Bend had cold, backward spring
and much Of the grain sown last fall
had to be reseeded this spring.
he Walla Walla valley fields look
ragged. the stand is very uneven and
the crop is not to be compared with
the splendid showing of last year. In
the Columbia River counties late
spring and continued dry weather told
tale of shortage weeks ago.
1.-The price? Ah. the price is going
to be all right. i believe at the very
start, the price will be stiff and until
the crop is moved think the tend
ancy of the market will be upward.
Conditions warrant prophesy of that
nature, anyway

instances private homes were invaded
for sleeping accommodations. the Ca.
pacity of the hotels icing inadequate
to take care of the crowds.
Athena was almost deserted, her
citizens in large numbers attending
the picnic both days. Some of the old
pioneers of this place who atten ded
were: Frank and Benjamin Mansfield,
