Seattle-Seattle downtown section
was crowded to it's capacity when
President Wilson's train arrived from
Tacoma Saturday afternoon, and all
along the line of twomile automo-
bile ride through the city there was
a roar of cheering. The police had
strung ropes to keep the spectators
on the sidewalks, but the crowds
broke through and shrieking mobs
followed the presidents car every
where.
Not all of those who wanted to see
him could find place in the streets
through which he passed and side
streets which afforded even scanty

HE SAVES LAD, BUT
LOSES HIS OWN LIFE
Edwin Lewis browns Under Logs in
Deer Park (Wash.) Pond, While
Saving Drowning Boy.


Saving Drowning Boy.
Deer Park, Wash.-After risking his
life in saving a boy in a millpond
near Deer Park, Edwin B. Lewis, age
80, of Deer Park, slipped from a log
and drowned.
The 9-year-old Constance lad and
the Wonch lad, of the same age, sons
of Deer Park residents, were playing
on logs which float loosely in the
Deer Park Lumber company's pond,
about a mile from town, early Sun
day afternoon. The Wonch lad fell in
and the Constance lad shouted for
help. Mr.. Lewis, who was unloading
logs nearby, ran to the rescue, crawl
ed out on the logs and pulled young
Wonch onto a log, and the lad made
his way to shore and then hurried
home. He had been home an hour
before he told that he did not know
positively that Mr.. Lewis had reached
shore. The boys expressed a belief
that Mr.. Lewis made his way into the
mill, but were not certain.
The body was found 25 feet from
shore. Mr.. Lewis had lost his bal
ance on the slippery log and in at
tempting to swim to safety had got
ten under logs where it was impos-
sible to get his head above water.

GRAIN AND MILLING NEWS.

I. S. Lambing and H. c. Erich
are the promoters and heavy stock
holders in the Pocatello Milling &
Elevator Co., which is erecting
modern mill and elevator at POca-
tello, Idaho. The mill will have an
initial capacity of 400 barrels daily,
with room for an additional unit of
400 barrels later. The elevator will
consist of three concrete tanks with
capacity of 100000 bushels.
The San Francisco correspondent
of the Northwestern Miller says in
part, of the Sperry Flour Co.'s new
rice mill: Business interests have
received with satisfaction the news
that a rice mill of more than 1000
bags daily capacity is to be estab-
lished at Chico, CAL, by the Sperry
Flour Co., and will be open for busi-
ness about November 1. Orders have
been placed for machinery, which
will handle every stage of the mill
ing from the time the rice is deliv-
cred by the farmers until placed in
the cars. A warehouse with a ca
pacity of 100000 bags of rice will be
erected. This will also contain the
local office of the company, and
storage for its flour and cereal prod

The September 1 grain report of
Stanley Scearce, Roman, Mont, says:
The month of August has shown no
change in the protracted drought
which has prevailed since April 1.
The smoke from forest fires has OBJ
scured visibility and somewhat miti-
gated the heat of the suns rays. The
flow of water from the mountains
has been at the lowest ebb since
records were kept. AS a conse,
quence there has not been sufficient
Irrigation water to supply the de-
mand. However, 1t Is calculated that
when all reservoirs along the noun
tains are completed, that sufficient
water can be stored from year ia
year to supply all demands, even
though we should have a repetition
of a year such as this. Preference
has been given with such water al
was available to alfalfa and hay and
pastures, and as result condition
of these crops is fair. Threshine
operations during the month have
been active throughout the valley
While there have been some very
fine yields, the turnout as whole
has been very disappointing. Sprine
wheat particularly will be short, and
there will be very little surplus ovel
and above seed requirements; winter
wheat will hold pretty close to pre-
vious estimates. From present indi
cations there will be between 100000
and 100000 bushels threshed, spring
wheat less than 100000.

Reports 1926 Bodies Have Been

Corpus Christi, Texas.-With it's
dead numbering at least Is and more
than so persons known to be missing,
Corpus Christi Monday was devoting
its energies principally to giving re-
lief to the 5000 persons made homeless
by the ravages of the tropical hurri-
cane that flooded this city Sunday.
The city is without water There
were no lights pr gas and the food sup
ply is insufficient
The railway to the causeway has
been washed away, but the town can
be reached from the west. 1t is believ-
ed suppliec can be sent from Laredo.
Property damage in Corpus Christi
alone was estimated at more than $4,-
100000, while many cities and towns
along the coast in the vicinity of that
place also suffered heavily.
The city is in distress and Mayor
Gordon Boone has sent the following
appeal to Governor Hobby at Austin:
please sent at once two companies
! of national guard with supplies and
join in an appeal for financial assist
ance. Conditions here deplorable and
immediate help is needed"
At least score of people were float
ing in Nueces bay Monday night,
where they were washed out by the
waves. They were clinging to spars
and debris and what few boats were
left undamaged by the storm were be-
! ing used to recover them
Beach Section Swept Clean.
The entire north beach residential
section of the city has been swept al
most clean.
The damage was caused mostly by
the tidal wave driven in from the north
by a gale estimated at from IS to 70
miles an hour. The official record of
the tide places it at 10 feet six inches
deep, but may say the water was Is
feet in depth on the beach.
There were reports that the bodies
of more than 125 persons had been re-
covered in Corpus Christi and Nueces
bay, but this could not be confirmed
up to midnight, and officials were in
clined to discredit the reports.
The reports were that 100 bodies
had been found between Portland and
Whit Point, across Nueces bay, while
other victims were found in the city
1t was reported some of the bodies
were those of Portland victims.

Tells Of Experiences While
"Over There"

New York.-Herbert Hoover, for
mer director general of allied relief,
came home Saturday after five years
service abroad during which he dis
tributed more than 600 steamship car
goes, or 3,219,968 tons of foodstuffs
valued at s77O,795,O0O to starving Eu-
rope.
'I hope never to go back to Eu-
rope again." he declared in a state
ment soon after he landed. "Since
August, 1914, I have devoted my en-
tire time and energy to war work and
with the exception of nine months l
have spent the entire five years away
from my family. I have no plans
other than to go home. l am not
partizan and am not in politics in any
form. am positively not a candi-
date"
The last statement was ELECTED by
questsiOn as to whether he ap-
proved mention of his name as a
presidential possibility.
Growing Achievement.
"The turning point" in the relief Of
Europe, Mr.. Hoover said, when asked
as to what he considered the crown
ing achievement of his work abroad,
came when he was appointed man
datory of the railroads and was able
to ship food where it was most need.
ed" Up to that time, he said, the
situation looked hopeless.
The task of America in Europe now
is greater than before the armistice
he declared, adding that it was chief
ly economic and had to do with the
restoration of trade and commerce.
''If we are going to market our nor
NAL exports next year." he explained
I'VE shall have to extend ample cred
it's. Practically all Europe lives or
it's imports. Bulgaria, Serbia, Czecho
Slovakia and Hungary, among othel
countries, will be able to produce
enough for their own needs, but Pc
land, Finland, all the neutrals and al
the bigger states like France, Eng
land and Germany must buy abroad
The food situation is entirely a mat
ter of credits the governments of Eu
rope today are in a position to trans
port and distribute American foods i
they are enabled to purchase them OF
long time payments"
Favors $2.2e Wheat.
Mr.. Hoover declared he favored thu
league of nations idea and that ther'
could be no stability abroad unit

Mr.. Hoover went to California thi
week and after a brief stay there wi
