l have been thinking for some time Of
writing few lines descriptive of this coun.
try for your paper, SO that the people Of my
old eounty can SEQ what this community
amounts to, and at last have got ut il.
The postoilico Of Arroyo has beon estab.
l'shed within the past three months, and we
are now protty well fixed in regard to mail
facilities. This community now numbers
about one hundred souls, and has been set
tied mostly within the past year. Two
years ago not house was to be seen here.
while now there is one on nearly every quar-
ter section, and nearly all contain families.
We can now boast of school which has an
average attendance of twenty scholars.
Claims can now bo had here for from $500
to 81, 200. owing to the location and improve.
monts on thom, and by going back four or
Ave miles can yet be takon up
The land here is rolling, but not so much
50 as to interfere with the running of head.
or Our soil is of rather a light, sandy char
aeter, and is from one to Eve ioet deep. and.
so far as it has boon tried, produces well and
seems to indicate that this is good farming
country, at least think l can mako more
money hero than ! can by renting in Web
foot
On account OF the soil being sandy It is
hard to tell at what depth water can be
found. Some end it at ten foot. while Others
have to SO down fifty.
And now as To tho weather--if your read.
ers take any intertAt whatever in this coun-
try they will want TO know something in re.
gard to it Our first snow came on tho 18th
OF December, and fell to the depth Of three
or four inches. We have had snow ON the
ground ever since. and sometimes it was ten
inches deep. and in places the lanes were
drifted A0arly full. On New Years Day the
Thermometer showed the mercury down to
zero; the second day it was l. below. and ON
the 4th it was D below, but with the excep.
tion of these three mornings the weather
during the month of january has averaged
about % above zero.
The winter so far has not been very hard
on stock in this locality. but few old cows
haue shuiiled of theirmortalcoii Horses have
wintered first rate with the exception Of
few cayusea on the reservation.
Hoping that have not taken up too much

Attempted Raenps.

On Thhtsday Of last week, when Sheriff
Dickey was inspecting the iaii, as is his Gus.
tom every alternate day, ho discovered
that his boardors had been making an Mt.
tempt to escape The corridor which they
have the liberty Of through the day is lined
with net work Of iron bars, crossing each
othcrat right angles every four Of five inches,
aud in one place two of these bars had been
sawed off and removed, and quite hole dug
into tho brick wall The prisoners had not
calculated very well, for where they were
working they would have come ont in the
other side Of the Jail. The Sheriff searched
them and found in their possession knife
transformed into saw, and IN a few days
took another Of the same description away
from them. Some ono on the outside has
been furnishing these tools, and he is the
chap that Is wanted now.
