A social Party.


Last evening the Social Club held the last
of a series Of dances at the old armory hall.
1t was most enjoyable affair, and all who
were present were loud in their praise of
the music, rendered by the string band,
which as usual, to say the least, was grand.
A number of the ladies attended in evening
dress, while Others were tastefully attired
In costumes of heayier material more suited
to the weather. OF the boys we will say
nothing but that they were all there, and
by their unabated applause, when the gidGy
waltz had ceased, showed their hearty ap-
paeciation af the music and a strong desire
for another whirl around the hal, with their
lovely partners. The following were pres
ent: Mr.. and Mrs. W. H. Wilson, Capt.

Those who are we'll posted on the condi.

A Mr.. Mock writes us from Pennsylvania,
that if the people Of Crook county will fur.
nish free transportation from The Dalles to
Prineyille, he will bring colony from that
state to settle here the coming season.
Crook county wants people in search Of

Last Monday County School Superiuten-
dent j. J. Q. Lawson's dwelling, about ten
miles above Prineville, was destroyed by
fire. Mr.. Lawson and his family were in
the house, and the fire catching in the roof,
they did not discover it until the house was
all ablaze, and they only had time to get an
organ. cook stove aud one bed out, every
thing else being consumed by the flames.
The wind was blowing hard at the time aad
any effort to put out the fire woald have
been useless. The loss on the house and
furniture, clothing. etc., will probably
amount to $1,000. Unfortunately for Mr..
Lawson. his insurance policy had expired
only short time ago. and had not been CO.
newed, 80 the loss wiil fall entirely spoa
him.

A. Mammoth wheel.

The greatest wheel of this kind in the
world, very wonder in mechanism,
stands in the main shop of the Dickson
Manufacturing company in Scranton, Pa.
1t was Duilt for the Calumet and Hecla
Mining company of Lake Superior, Mich,
for the purpose of.lifting and discharging
the "tallings" waste from the copper
mines, into the lake, and its diameter is
81 feet. while its weight in active opera
tion will be 200 TONS, 1t is called fifty
foot sand wheel, but Its extreme dimen-
sions are fifty.fouf feet in diameter.
Some idea of its enormous capacity can
be formed from the fact that it will re-
cieve and elevate sufficient sand every
twenty four hours to cover an acre of
ground foot deep. .
1t is armed on its outer edge with 4S2
teeth, Att inches pitch aud Is inches face.
The gear segments, eighteen in number,
are made OF gun iron: and the teeth are
machine cut, epicycloidal in form. 1t
took two of the most perfect machines In
the world 100 days and nights to cut the
teeth alone, and the finish is as smooth as
glass.
The wheel is to be driven BY p.nion of
gun iron containing 50 teeth OF equal pitch
and face and will run at a speed of 600
feet per minute at the inner edge, where it
will be equipped with 4sS steel buckets
that will lift the "tailings' as the machine
revolves and discharge them into the lake.
The shaft of the wheel is of gun iron, and
its journals are % inches in diameter by
8 feet 4 inches leng. The shaft is made
in three sections and is 80 inches In di-
ameter in the iouter center. ~o-
At first glance tie great. wheel looks
like an exaggerated bycicle wheel; and 1t
is constructed much on the same principle,
with straining rod that run to centers cast
on the outer sections of the shaft. Tne
steel buckets on either side of the gear
are each feet 5 Ia inches long and 81
inches deep, and the combined lifting ca
pacity Of the 448. running at speed Of
600 feet per minute, will be 100000, 900
gallons of water and 1000 tons of sand
every twenty-four hours The mammoth
wheel Is supported on two MASSIVE pedes-
tails of cast iron weighing twelve tons each,
and it is estimated that ITS cost at The cop
per mines before making a single revolu-
tion will not be less than$100 900.

The company did everything possible for

rendering every attention to the wants of
the sufferers.
An important meeting of the board of

drink of whisky. He Immediately walked
out OF the caboose well man. He was not
hurt but badly demoralized.
Mr.. D. L. Gates, deputy.sheriff, went

noble work In helping the injured. In this
connection, the company's surgeon--Dr. Lo-

From MONDAYS Daily.

DIR. Boyd was able to be on the streets to
day.
Judge Bird at last accounts was improv-
ing. .s-4,
Every creek in the interior is overhowing
and roads are almost impossible.
A chinook sprung up this afternoon
and blew as though 'twould blaw its last.
Three west. bound trains are blockaded
here, and the company are feeding them at
the hotels and restaurants in the city.
Hon. ..J.P. Fault, one of the railroad
commissioners, is in the city to- day, de-
tained by reason of the blockade.
. The boat arrived at the Locks at
o'clock this afternoon, and will arrive in
this city this evening, with the reliefcorps
on board.
The railroad is blockaded in every Idirec-
tion, and communication with the outside
world is as difficult as If we lived in Siberia
or Kamschatka.
1t may be expected that tomorrow
morning the boat will take load OF pas
sengers down, and that connections will
be made with Portland.
. We understand that the snow has dissap-
peared at Dufur, and the hillsides are so
moist that they will mire animals. This
indicates an abundant wheat crop next
year.
The road.bed between this city and Port
land is in q worse condition than ever be-
fore. Report says that land slides have oc-
Cured every few miles, and bridges are very
unsafe.
Yesterday morning those having wood on
the beach commenced to haul it away, and
with all their endeavors several cords are
aioat, and are only saved by booming 1T
around with logs.
By reason of the sickness of Judge Bird
it is very likely the time of holding the
circuit court will be postponed to later
date. 1t would have convened on the 10th
instant, if Judge Bird had been in condition
to hold the session.
: At the special meeting of G Company last
Saturday evening they decided to give
full dress social on Feb. l4th at the Bird
Regiment Armory hall, which promiees to
be the event of the season. Invitations will
be issued shortly. No uniforms.
The telegraph wires were down all day
Yesterday between The Dalles and Portland,
and all messages came via Spokane Falls
and the Northern Pacific. The operator at
Spokane Falls refused to wire message to
the California Associated press, clalming
that he could not use it for estern Union
dispatches.
Yesterday afteuJbon Chief Engineer De-
Huff was ordered to get his crew and be
prepared to go down the river. He imme-
d;ateIy got together his men. and this morn
ing the Harvest Queen steamed. down to the
Upper Cascades with a working crew ON
board. After the portageis in safe condi-
ton, the boat will make regular trips. To
morrow will be the first.
Mrs. 81. K. Hines, q lady well known
in this city and highly esteemed for her
many admirable qualities, died In East
Portland last Friday. For many years
her husband, Rev. H. e. Hines, was pas
tor in chargeupf the III. E. church in The
Dalies. s
We understand 100 Cinnamon were at
work at Dodson's, west of Bridal Veil. clear
ing land slide yesterday. They made Lit.
tie or no impression upon the huge mass OF
rocks and earth up to noon; but still were
persevering in their endeavors to open the
track
