LAST Monday night Charley Small
and Yank Morrell, Of this place, and
John Lamberton, of Centerville,
struck camp, near the latter place, on
quartz claim that was subject to re-
location on January 1st. Each had
his notices all ready to stick up at
midnight, and each, at first, thought
he was the only man on the gtound.
Before midnight one Of them started
up 'roaring fire" against dead
tree. When the other relocators saw
the freight they were considerably
surprised, and one of them walked
up within ten or fifteen yards of the
fire to see who was there. The one
who was warming his toes serenely.
thought he discovered the dim form
of a man, but wasn't positive; so he
SANG out and asked who was there
No answer, and the form was as mo-
tionless as statue. Then the fellow
at the fire says to himself: "l'n see
r if it's a man he'll hustle" and he pick
' ed up his AK and went at the tree fu
, riously and the chips flew fast. Pres
E entity he sang out: ''Look out dow
/, there! Quick! She's coming!" An
r the way that relooator lit out was
q scaution." The trio all came togetf
E er at the fire soon after. Each ma
+ had his notices up at midnight. VIII

No one has yet acquired patent and
consequently no one can give any

A CORRESPONDENT of the Wood

A CORRESPONDENT of the Wood
River Times, J. E. Crane, writing
from Portland, Oregon, describes
how he and eleven others got in and
out of the Occur d'Alene country,
and it seems that they seen harder
times than any of the other pioneers
of that camp. He says: "The only
way we could reach the diggings was
by walking from the mission, 40 miles
through snow from three to FIVE feet
deep. Snow without sign Of trail
and storming continuously. Without
blankets or any weight whatever, we
were four days on the road, camping
in snow wherever night overlook us.
At the mines we found three feet of
snow. Very little work was being
done. We are convinced that miles
of good gulches are untouched
+ About 200 men will winter there
Meals are 81, -four $38 per barrel
corned beef 81 per can, and othe
things in proportion, and very littl'
e Of that. The only way we could ge
out was to build raft and float sixt,
