THE RAILROAD GRADERS.
They are Strung Along to Bellevue, and
Will be Here In Few Days.


J. l.. Hazlett, superintendent of the
kilpatricks' forces, called at the
TIMES Office to-day, to buy few
maps, so that he could locate his
whereabouts and get an idea of the
topography of this section.
Mr.. Hazlett said that they had 400
teams and about 1000 men strung
along the line of the Wood River
branch railway, and that more men
and teams are on the way here. In
about three days the entire line will
be covered to point about a quarter
of mile north of the TIMES Office.
The grade between HALEY and Sill
yer Creek, being within the deep
snow line, will be raised about three
feet above the level Of the ground.
BY this means the heavy
snowfall will not be apt to
cover the track so deep but what a
snow pillow can keep it open all VIM
ter.
The ground between Haley and
the junction is very deceptive. In
places it is as fair and gravclly as it
looks on the surface, while in others
solid rock is encountered by the pillow
at the depth of foot or so. Then
again there is sheet of lava two or
three feet thick encountered in places,
which is very difficult to work as it is
exceedingly hard and lays loose on
the ground.
There has been great deal of de
lay, from various sources, in pushing
the main line; but things are now
moving regularly, and the work is
making satisfactory progress. Men
have at last been secured who can
stand the rock and lava work
They are Italians; $50 o.
them are at work already, and three
hundred more left Denver for the line
yesterday With these men there il
no doubt that the main line will b,
completed this fall. And as to tn,
branch line, Mr.. Adams pooh pooh.
the idea that it will not be, as tn
Messrs. kilpatricks, who have abou
100 miles altogether t, complete be
fore spring, are bound t, get through
with the Wood River branch bcfor
the first snow falls.

See Them.

Do you notice all those well-dressed
men on the streets Of Bellevue, Bull
lion, Ketchum and Haley? Yes? Well,
Oscar Bache, of Haley, dressed them.
He takes their measure, and gives
them a splendid fitting suit of choice
material for less than it would cost
ready-made. A man has no excuse for
being poorly clad when good clothes
are as cheap as that.

ORADO.
The New Town in Narrow Gauge Gulch,
Deer Creek.

\ new town has been located, sur
veyed and subdivided in Narrow
Gauge gulch, on Deer creek, which
will soon be known to fame as Orado.
At first the Kunkle brothers, who
own the townsite, selected the name
of Toledo for their town, but after
canvassing the matter little, and in
view of the probability that the postal
authorities would change the name if
sent in, it was changed to Orado-af-
ter one OF the mines Of the French
boys group, which is situated at the
head of the gulch.
Orado is located at the intersection
Of the Forest creek and Bannock
gulches with Narrow Gauge gulch. 1t
is very narrow, walled in on two sides
by mountains, which only leave
room in the gulch for two streets.
This, however, is an advantage, as tie
small number Of lots will only make
them more valuable, and the conse-
quence will be a booming town.
As means Of support Orado will have
all the mines in its immediate vicinity,
which include the two Narrow
Gauges, the Bannacks, the Robert
Emmett and Forest Creek group, and
the French boys group. These mines
are already employing about 40 men,
and in a week or so, when the pro-
posed road from Deer Creek to the
mines is being made, at least $50 men
will be employed. BY the time the
road is completed the Narrow Gauges,
Bannack and Robert Emmett will be
ready to ship ore, and will probably
employ twice as many men as are
now at work. Next summer 400 men
are expected to be at work and live
III and around Narrow Gauge gulch
As above stated, the townsite i.
owned by the kunkle brothers, WI 0 c
claims cross it at right angles. Five
houses are already up in town besides
the Narrow Gauge boarding house
blac ksmith shop and Office, and moro
will be built at once. Mr.. Clark anc
Mr.. Hunt, respectively superintendent
and foreman of the Narrow Gaug,
mines, will build themselves rcsitien
ccs, Mr.. Clark having already pur
chased and paid for his lot, and 9th
ers will soon follow his example. Ii

News from the Upper Country.

Mr.. McGregor has returned from
Yankee Fork, Ramshorn, Bayhorse,
and the East Fork of the Salmon, and
says that the mines are paying well in
the Custer country, and that the East
Fork of the Salmon mines are pro-
ducing very rich ore. The mines are
at great altitude, and the country
rough. The Germania mine is at TO-.
500 feet elevation, also the Idaho and
the Arctic. The ore is packed
on mules 40 miles to the
smelter at kinnakinnick, and
costs $25 per ton to transport. A
stampede has been made to East Fork
and the country is by many consider
ed one of the best districts in the
Wood River country. The district
lies between Galena and Boulder dis
tricts. The ore averages $50 ounces
in silver, with some gold.

ATLANTA.
Her Prosperous Outlook-Shc Proposes
to Give Wood River an Overhauling
Next Year.

ATLANTA, |. T., Sept. :, 1882.
To THE EDITOR OF THE TIMEs:-
The Atlanta Hill G.. NJ. & NJ. Co. ex-
peet to start up their l0-stamp mill on
or about the 10th instant. 1t has been
put in complete working order. They
have added a new concentrator and
propose erecting rooster to roast the
concentrates. They commenced haul
ing ore Yesterday.
The Atlanta Mining Company re-
ceived the machinery for their new
hosting works week ago to-day, and
some mine supplies this week. The
hosting machinery is from Chicago,
and, Superintendent Petit informs
me, is of the best material and make,
and entirely satisfactory.
If Wood River does not look sharp
Atlanta will give her lively over
hauling next year-''and don't you
forget it." With two, probably three
and possibly four mills to be put up
we feel as though this would be {
right smart place. J.

Junction City.

The term Shoshonee City, which is
frequently applied to the new town at
the junction of the o. S. L. and Wood
River branch railroads, is incorrect, as
the citizens have named it junction
City, and the United States postal
service so designates it.

OUR ORGAN.
1t was Shipped from the Factory on the
SGth of August.


On the 18th of July last Mrs. Bur-
kett, as treasurer of the ladies having
the matter in charge, forwarded an
order to the Estey Company, of Brat
tleboro, VT, for chapel organ, for
use in our public school and on charit-
able occasions. The lowest price OF
the organ at the works, was quoted at
1925 To make up this amount due
bill which the company had agreed to
accept for Sl45, and a draft on New
York for 500, were forwarded-the
extra $50 being to cover the cost OF
stool and box. The draft was col
lccted in New York on the 9th Of
July-10 days after it was sent-but
no acknowledgment or receipt, not
word, in fact, was heard from the com
pany. Some ladies, getting uneasy,
and being very DESTROYS of getting an
organ soon, even if second house
were applied to, the publisher Of the
TINES, wrote, last Saturday, to the
chief Of police of Brattleboro, VT, and
to couple of prominent citizens in
the place, requesting that the matter
be looked into. These letters left
here Sunday morning, and the day
following letter came with tripli-
cate freight rece pit and the following
explanations
DEAR SIR:-We inclose rcccipted
invoice for the style 222 and stool
sent you
Your order called for box to keep
the organ in, but think you would
soon tire of such an arrangement and
SO have taken the liberty to have the
organ so made that the pedals, as
well as the cover over the keys, can
be locked up, and thus prevent chill
drcn or others from handling it.
We enclose our check on a
New York bank for SIT
the balance due you-and you will find
it cheaper to get it encased there Gf
you still think it advisable) than for us
to do it and then freight it to your
place.
Trusting thai you will be pleased
and satisfied, we remain.
Yours Truly,

Correspondence OF the Herald
LANCASTER, July "a, lss2.-On last Satur-
day night Mrs. Halter, the amiable and
accomplished wife of Mr., James Halter,
died of maarial typhoid fever, after lin
gering illness of several weeks She was
inferred in the village cemetery, and her
remains were followed to the grave by a
large concourse of sorrowing relatives and
friends. An impressive and feeling dis
course was delivered on that occa-
sion by that kind and accom-
plished christian gentleman, DR.. II. j..
Moilett. Mrs. Halter had only been
married about three years, and was the
mother OF two children, who are too young
to realize the irrepairable loss they have
been called on to sustain.
Last night there was largely attended
and most enjoyable mite party at the hos
pitable home OF Colonel W. T. Nance. 1t
was given in the interest OF the Presbyte-
rians who are using all diligence to raise
the necessary amount of money with which
to erect a church in our town. Those who
are able and willing TO give to this noble
enterprise should forward their contribu-
tons to the Rev. Mr.. Caldwell, pastor OF
the congregation in Lancaster.
The Methodist campmeetlng on Bear
creek has already begun work under the
auspices of the Rev. G. w. Owens. The
Rev. Mr.. Allison and other distinguished
preachers will be there to lend their assist
ance.
The projected telephone communication
between Lancaster and Dallas IS now an
assured fact. The contract has been COM
pleted and the material will be purchased
and put up at once, and the two cities will
be able to whisper into each others ears
by the first Of September. All praise to
Colonel Nance for the success OF this enter
prise. This will partially explain why he
has no opposition for the Office of county
commissioner.
