TRACK TO WALLOWi
WITHIN SIX WEEKS
Cheering Words by Engineer Brandon
---Will Reach Minan River In
Ten Days.

"The track will be laid as far as the
bridge in ten days" said Engineer
Brandon at Enterprise, Monday, "and
will be at the town of Wallowa within
six weeks"
Mr.. Brandon who has charge of the
construction of the Elgin-Joseph
branch, was in the city the first of the
week looking after the progress of the
grading and other matters pertaining
to the road. He said the work by Coz
tractor Patterson is proceeding rapidly
and satisfactorily.
Mr.. Brandon reported the track laid
as far as Howard creek, three miles
from the mouth of the Wallowa. The
Howard creek bridge was finished Mon
day night, and tracklaying resumed
Tuesday morning. Only small
bridge at the hatchery interferes with
clear way for the tracklayers as far as
the Minam, which will be reached by
August 30. Temporary pilng across
the Wallowa at the bridge will delay on
few days and then tracklaying will
continue up the canyon.
An average of 5000 feet of track per
day is now being laid, but as soon as
they are out of the canyon and the
tracklaying machine can be used, a
mile day will be ut down. At pres
ent there are 260 men at work in the
canyon and about 80 on the grades in
the valley.
There will be no delays in the work
says Mr.. Brandon. All material is not
only a sembled in the big yards estab-
lished OH the Anthony farm at the
mouth OF tie Wallowa, but the material
is shaped ready for use. The rails are
bent to fit the curves and a yard gang
of 40 men load and unload the cars and
tit the material for use. 1t is one of
the most complete railroad construction
yards and camps ever established in
the West and is an indication of the
thoroughness with which Mr. Brandon
has prepared for this work. Three en-
gines are in use at the yards and on
the completed track Water is even
piped into the workmen's cars, giving
them the convenience of shower baths.
Mr.. Brandon is living on the firing
line. so to speak. having his private
car at the front.
When the track is laid as far as
Wallowa, about September |, new
yards will be established there as the
base of operations for the valley, up
which construction work will proceed
with all speed as it is the purpose of
the company that regular service shall
be instituted tlis fall. The yards at
Wallowa will not OF course be of the
same magnitude ~ the one now at
Anthony, as the work in the valley Is
so much less than that up the canyon.
The concrete pier of the big bridge
across the Grande Ronde are now being
put in.

Brave Woman In
Runaway Accident

7. 0. Barnwell, wife and three chill
dren and Bert Whittemore, all of La
Grande, were the participants in an ex-
citing runaway here Monday evening.
They had gotten the team at Elgin and
were driving in for visit with Mrs.
Barnwell's brother, Lon Davis. The
team became frightened and started to
run on Trout Creek hill, going south
through town on RIVER street. After
the two men and one of the children
had been thrown out Mrs. Barnwell to
save the little children who were with
her from a worse fate, threw them out
and then jumped herself. The band
boys were practicing at the rink and
they were taken in there. DR.. C. r..
lockett was summoned and dressed
their wounds. Their injuries are not
severe, though Mrs. Barnwell has deep
cut on her head and was badly bruised,
evidently having been dragged some
little distance, her clothing being torn
to shreds. One OF the boys especially
was cut about the face. The team was
captured near the Murry place on AL
der Slope and brought to the Shackle-
ford stable Tuesday afternoon. Mr..
Barnwell desires to thank the people
of the city for the kindness shown
them.

Splendid Hay CrOps.

This is going to be hay year in
Wallowa valley. The timothy and
clover crops are immense, especially in
Middle valley. it is one vast hay field
from Lostine north. The grain crops
both above and below Lostine are also
good. probably better than in the up
per valley. The main reason is the
water was put on earlier down the val
ley so when the hot weather came the
grain did not fire as it did up here.

olivette.
Olivette, the opera selected by Prof
Boyer for presentation at Enterprise
this year, is one of the greatest musi-
cal and comedy successes ever known,
either in this country or in Europe. 1t
will he more appreciated and will be a
greater success than was "The Pirates
OF Penzance" last year, for tie reason
that whereas the "Pirates" was sat
ire on conditions existing in England
twenty-five years ago, its hun, or, there
tore, appearing somewhat obscure to
many, "Olivette" is straight comedy.
The cast this season promises to he
much stronger than was that of last
season, Prof. Boyer, himself, singing
the leading tenor role, Mr.. Pratt the
leading baritone role, while Mr.. Street
er will furnish the comedy stunts among
the men. The company is fortunate
CROUCH to have secured as leading so
prano, Miss Edna Browning, who is
fresh from her recent triumphs at the
Gladstone Park Chatauqua, near Port
land. 1t is doubly fortunate in havir Q
secured for the soubrette part of
"Oliyette," Miss Blanche Bryan. whose
acting with the Streeter- Bryan Com
pany has been so much enjoyed.
Altogether the prospects are for a
rendition of the opera which will be "a
mt morable one.
Rehearsels are going on steadily with
large attendance, and it is thought
that everything will be ready for the
production of the opera on Friday and
Saturday, August 7th and sth.
