An Artesian Well.

The people of Harney valley are
raising means to bore an artesian
well. The unusually dry season has
produced lamentable results all over
eastern Oregon, and water has be-
come invaluable. How to produce it
is a question of paramount import
ance to the settlers, and they are pro-
eeeding to do for themselves all that
is possible. II there is any virtue in
favorable location the people of Har-
ney have everything to hope from
well-boring. The great water reser-
voirs to be found to the west in the
Cascades should furnish deep stores
of water ready to rise to the surface.
The Blue mountains are yet nearer
and if being surrounded by vast
mountain walls that possess untold
stores of water, is promise Of water
from artesian sources, then the in
land empire should possess means
to create paradise for its popula-
ton.

BATTLING FOR BIRDIE.

Her Lover Stands Off the Parents

The Mother Returns and Bests Him
Easily.

Birdie Booth is a merry little mountain
maid who for several months has been q
Union Pacific train dispatcher st Sher
man, where her father is agent. Birdie
Is a desperate firt and has been called a
cute devilish little devil. She's only
about l6, but doesn't let youth interfere
with the heart smashing industry. Birdie
comes to Cheyenne every week or two,
when she demoralizes the Union Pacific
local telegraph service.
The latest lightning ierker to become
infatuated of Birdie is Mr.. Kyle, of Red
Buttes. They have been wont to keep
the line hot for hours at a stretch. The
poles became weary and the wires sang
low, but the sweet messages continued to
fly from Sherman to Red Buttes and back.
The eavesdropping of other operators and
the fact that Booth himself was familiar
with the dot and dash language %necessi-
tated writing letters occasionally. A
few of these were published in the

bour Thread company, was met by a
LEADER reporter at KelIner's dry goods
store yesterday.
at is surprising to me-" said Mr..
Weir, that no one has yet made any ex-
pertinent with flax raising in this section
of the country. You have a typical eli
mate here and the virgin soil would afford
substance for half a century to come.
Flax furnishes a very profitable crop.
1t could readily be raised here at a profit
of from $50 to 60 an acre. l have tried
the experiment in Dakota fer three years
and find that it may be very successfully
