WARNS AGAINST SPEEDING
Contributor Comments On Injury to
Young Chas. Heitman.

The miraculous escape Of young
Charles Heitman from perhaps fatal
injury in a collision with an auto
while riding on his pony from Twin
Lakes, last Saturday evening" is
another startling illustration OF the
recklessness and heartlessness Of too
many drivers Of automobiles.
1t was most fortunate for the boy
that the accident happened In town
and near his home.
Charles was knocked from his pony
and thrown into the street uncoD-
scious. but was quickly rescued from
this perilous position by some people
who saw the accident These eye
witnesses say the automobile was
going at high rate of speed at the
time and after the accident in which
boy and pony were painfully hurt,
the auto driver instead OF stopping TO
give aid rushed away at increased
speed into the night, which 10 itself
is evidence OF reckless guilt.
State laws are stringent 10 cases OF
this kind and we have speed limit
established by city ordinance
adopted to prevent such accidents on
our streets, but many people driving
through town disregard the law
entirely.
Perhaps when somebody Is killed
something may be done.
10 this case an effort is being mace
to locate the driver OF the machine.
&C.

VILLAGE BILLS PAID
New Concrete Bridge. --SaWmill
Proposition.

An unusual grist of bills was
allowed at the meeting of the
village trustees last Tuesday night,
the aggregate sum of the warrants
drawn exceeding $3.50. The
concrete bridge at the planning mill
was reported completed at cost
estimated at $500. Slightly over
thirty barrels of cement were used
and over $40 worth Of reinforcing
steel. The labor on the bridge
cost about $3.50. The expenditure
leaves only few dollars in the
public Improvements fund.
Plans for work on the water
system were discussed. but doubt
was expressed as to whether any
thing would be done on the reser-
voir until next year.
The board heard proposition
to get sawmill established here
to give employment to about IS
men during the winter months, but,
as such an enterprise would require
considerable sum to finance the
purchase of stumpage, logging and
saving, members of the board,
while favoring such project
individually, expressed doubt of
the right of the village to under
take it and suggested that the
chamber of commerce would be
the proper body to consider inter-
esting capital in an enterprise of
this kind.
Four members of the board were
present at the meeting.

Portland Hurler
Makes Fine Record
in South Atlantic

Portland, Sept. 17-Ray "Lanky"
Jordan of this city pitched the Col
umbia team of the South Atlantic
League to a pennant this season.
The angular moist ball hurler won
81 and lost but two games. winning
his last IL games straight. This is
the third consecutive year that Col
umbia has captured the banner, but
the first time the Maine boy has
played with the club.
The South Atlantic season does
not end until next Saturday, but Col
umbia has grabbed off enough de-
cisions to cinch the flag. Here's
what a Columbia sporting writer
says about the duel that decided the
bunting:
Columbia, definitely cinched the
pennant for the third consecutive
year. and Greenville slipped into
fourth place when the Spinners and
Corners divided a double header"
THE honor fell to Ray Jordan,
spitball pitcher supreme, to turn the
key that locked the gonfalon in
Beck's baseball cupboard, and by
winning the first game of the twin
| bill, 10 to 4, the keen cutter from
the International, Pacific Coast and
Texas leagues ran his string up to
II victories and two losses
When the South Atlantic season
ends, the Columbia Club will play a
series with the winners of the Vir-
! ginia League, Jordan will work in
| this series, and will come home early
in October, ana shoot direct for his
hunting camp at Fryeburg, where he
will pass a couple of months.
Raymond Jordan has proved one
! of the most successful ball players
who ever left the old Pine Tree
state for broader fields. While he
has not hunghis hat under the big
l>tent for any length of time he has
| ben consistent winner in the minor
| leagues.
In 1919, Jordan reached his climax
| when he was practically tied with
his teammate Ryan of Buffalo as the
leading pitcher of the International
League. That season he pitched a
!
the Baltimore club, the tenant win
ners of the circuit.
Nea rthe end of the season. Jor-
dan was sold to Washington. But
that winter out came the howl over
spltbau hurlers, and Clarke Griffith
sent "Lanky' to San Francisco next
season along with Sam Agnew the
veteran catcher. The Maine finger
was sick much of his time in Cali
| 1ornia and finally was farmed to the
Tacoma team. He was so successful
f, with that club that he was recalled.
This spring Jordan was sold to the
san Antonio club of the Texas Lea
que, but the climate got him, and he
was sent to Columbia, S. c., and i'm
medmtely began to burn up the
9outh Atlantic organization.

A Bridge of Steel
May Replace the
Bridge of the Gods

Cascade Locks. Ore, Sept. IL
The Bridge of the Gods" a natural
bridge which Indian legend says
once spanned the wide Colum bia
River here. may he replaced by a
bridge of steel or concrete for pass
age of the white mans automobile.
From father to son, back farther
than the white mans writings so,
has come the tale of how once a
great mass OF stone and earth and
huge trees arched the Columbia as
causeway upon which Indians
crossed the wide flowing stream.
Then there came a day when the
bridge of nature was shaken from
its moorings, and sank into the wa
ter. And that is how. they say. the
cascades were created.
Geographical and geological inves-
tigators have reported that the red
mems story may be true. When the
waters of the Columb ia are clear and
low late in the year, remains OF
trees may be seen standing. as they
may have stood before the bridge
fell and formed the cascades.
Credence is placed in the natural
bridge by +. IT. Balch. author of
the Indian romance, THE Bridge of
the Gods" He says that Indians
everywhere along the mid-Columbia
tell of the great bridge that once
stood over the cascades.
IAN Columbian tribes tell the
story" he says. ''in different YER
SIGNS and different dialects, but all
agreeing on the essential features as
one of the great facts Of past his
tory
Engineers we're recently reported
making preliminary surveys on both
sides of the Columbia for a bridge
just below the cascades.
