oROVILLE'S CELEBRATION

1t Is only reiterating what is already
widely known to state that Oroville Is to
celebrate this year on the ID and Sd Of
July, selecting those days because the 4th
OF July falls on Sunday The celebration
VIII be none the less interesting and
patriotically enthusiastic because of the
early date. From every indication this
VIII be one of the most largely attended
of the many celebrations ever held in
Oroville, and there is greater variety
OF attractions to entertain the crowd than
ever before. Situated as the town is,
practically on a beautiful. lake and two
charming rivers, it is an ideal place to
spend two or three days, and all who
come are certain of enjoying themselves.
The lake and river will be featured by
aquatic events. There viii be base ball
games, horse racing, balloon ascentions,
boat races, swimming races, and other
contests, dancing at night and u fire
WORKS display that will be unusually at
tractive. Here is the program and com
mittees so that everybody can familiarize
themselves with what is to go on and
those who are to conduct the same:

NARROW ESCAPE

tragedy almost followed the Ca
sad-HOrrigan wedding last week, and
those who slid along on the very brink
Of the mysterious hereafter experience
ed the scare of their lives. Lew Prem
uce took out from town some four
teen ladies and gentlemen to attend
the ceremonies in his big auto truck.
On the return trip, when coming down
the long, steep hill from Wanicut to
the valley, all the brakes on the car
suddenly gave way. The big truck
was unmanageable, and coasted down
the mountain with frightful velocity,
dashing around the short curves on
two wheels Mr. Prentice was at the
wheel. He did not lose his head. On
one side was steep embankment, as
the road is cut in the side of the hills,
on the other side a canyon of consid-
cradle depth. He held the car to the
road SO that the inside scraped the
bank. The crowd was paralyzed into
silence. Death or horrible injury lurk-
sWerving of the car few inches, the
meeting of vehicle on the road, a
break of any kind meant destruction.
Fortunately all those things were
ay yerted. The car came down the hill
faster than any other vehicle ever
made the run, and hence the suspense
did not last long really, although it
seemed an age to those whose lives
were at stake. The machine slid out
on TO level ground and finally came to
a standstill. 1t could go no further.
Chas. Powell walked to town and cars
were sent out for the marooned but
thankful passengers. 1t was one of
the narrowest escapes from a fearful
accident ever recorded in the county.
