Z MEET DEATH
IN UMAT|[[A

UMATILLA, Ore, Aug. 5.-(spec'
iaD--While attempting to swim the
mouth Of the Umatilla river here this
morning, Ray and Cleve McNurlen,
two popular ana prominent young
men Of this town, became exhausted
and both were drowned in signt of
several people who were powerless TO
help them. Their bodies were recov-
cred two hours later but all efforts to
resuscitate them were futile.
The two young men work at night
and have been in the habit OF going
swimming every morning for the past
two months. This morning they de-
cided to swim across the river. When
half way, they realized that the feat
was harded than they had anticipat'
ed and turned back. only to be caught
by cross current which weakened
them fast They were some distance
apart. Ray .McNurIen sank first
without a sound and shortly after
wards two women and man were
attracted to the scene by the cries OF
the other for help. The man threw
out a rope but the drowning youth
released his hold after he had clutch
ed It and sank from sight.
The alarm was at once spread and
a party OF searchers at once began 70
dive for the bodies.
The two young men are cousins
Ray McNurlen is the son OF c. d.
MeNurlen, a fruit farmer OF this vi
cinity, and has number OF brothers.
He was employed as night clerk at
hotel here. His cousin was son Oh
Il. C. McNurlen, also OF this place,
and was employed by the railroad
company. One of the sad features oil
the accident was the fact that he
leaves a bride OF only three months.

Wedding IS DELAYED.

James II. Frakes and Iva Hammer
appeared at the court house yesterday
for a marriage license but Cupid was
unkind to them. The witness they had
refused to make affidavit that the
bride-to-be was a resident of thia
county, stating that she lived in Wal
Ia Walla, and consequently Deputy
Clerk Brown could not issue the Ii
cense. They will probably have to be
married in Walla Walla.

He telephoned a careful description
of the two men and their whereabouts,

"Oh, yes" The young man paused
in his dilemma and looked for an in
slant at the sweet face OF the girl be-
side him. But he could not let his
friend see that he did not know the
name Of his wife-to-be, and with quick
thought he answered, Mary"
The ceremony proceeded, and the
minister's voice sounded out solmenly
In the empty church: do you, Tryon,

the hand to be your lawful welded
wife,"
The young mans fingers held the
timid hand of the woman firmly as he
answered. 81 do

Then the minister's wife, who knew
and priced Tryon Dunham's friendship,
said to herself: IT'S all right. She

When the solemn words were
spoken that bound them together
through life. and they had thanked
their kind friends and were once more
out in the carriage, Tryon said:
DO you know you haven't told me

She laughed happily as the carriage
started on its way, and answered,

the discontinued upper lip in charge
In the office, The latter watched the
elegant lady in the rich furs come
down the hall from the elevator, and
wondered who she was and why she
had been upstairs. Probably to visit
some poor protegee, she thought. The
girl caught the lovelight In the eyes
of Tryon Durham as he rose to meet
his bride. and she recognized him as
the same man who had been in close
converse with tho cheaply dressed girl
In the parlor an hour before, and

disappearing carriage and hurried
after 1t. He had been standing in the
entrance OF the Y. W. G. A. building,
an apparently careless observer, while
the elevator boy gave his evidence.
The motorcycle shot ahead a few
rods, passed the carriage, and dscov.
