sam Thurman Finds a Bee Tree.

Sam Thurman Finds q Bee Tree.
Especial Correspondence from Collins Landing)
Sam Thurman is in camp at Collins
landing with George Filloon and family.
He is chief cooksand bottle washer, and
by the way, has made quite an impress
sion on a certain young lady of the
camp by his continued efforts. He
arnuses himself between meals by fish
ing, hunting, bathing and chopping
wood; in fact he is more useful than or
namental. On one of his bathing trips
he found bee tree while he was summing
himself on sand pile, and Immediately
proceeded to make prisoners of the bees
by stuffing all his shirts, underwear and
bathing towels in the hole where they
went in and out of the tree. OF course
Sam had his axe along Ito protect him
self against bear) and at once began the
task of robbing the bees of their honey.
He succeeded in telling the tree and at
tempted to split it, with the proud
thought of how tickled his girl would be
when he got back to camp with his
honey. What surprise it would be to
all to have some real genuine bee honey
and Sam would be the hero. He could
scarce wait until he had secured the
sweet, delicious prize. But he never
looked up from his work until after an
hours hard toll .chopping and splitting
the old trunk. It finally popped open
when a swarm of yellow jackets escaped
from the nest and in less time than it
takes to tell it, Sam was completely COW
cred with the pretty little bees and
looked more like yellow jacket himself
than anything else, and if Sam ever did
get a move on himself it was then. He
jumped, yelled and struck, kicked and
laid down and rolled, but all to no effect,
and, finally, as a last resort took to the
water to drown them, which finally done
them up. Stung and almost killed Sam
made for camp and, being clad only in
garments of nature, he hid behind a
clump of bushes near camp and called to
George to bring vaseline and other sooth-
ing salve and some clothes, He was
helped into bed where everything was
done, that could be, to relieve pain.
Sulphur. water from the springs was
brought, and mixed with salt, pepper
and sauce and was fed him with a
spoons; Sam pronounced it good. At
last accounts his eyes were swollen shut,
and he was unable to navigate. Sam
says that next time he digs for honey he
will be sure that he has his clothes on
and that they are genuine italian bees.
Poor fellow, he has the sympathy of his
friends. REPORTER.

Mistaken Identity.

Two persons recently escaped from
the county Jail at Baker City and dep
uty sheriff and constable started in pur-
suit of them. Suspecting that the pris-
oners had followed the railroad track,
the two officers boarded freight train
for Haines station, and after arriving
there they started to walk back, expect
ing to meet the prisoners on the way.
Arriving at Willow Greek they sighted
two men coming towards them and
when about seventy feet from them
some remark was dropped that led the
the strangers to turn a shot gun, loaded
with buckshot, and pistol, loose on
them. The officers, who were armed
with revolvers, responded till eleven
shots were fired when the strangers
took the brush and escaped. The Off
GERS searched in vain for them all night
and till nearly noon next day, when
they learned, to their surprise, that it
was case of mistaken identity. Each
pair had mistaken the other for the es-
capped prisoners. No harm was done,
however, beyond the fact that one of the
strangers had been struck on the boot
heel by bullet.

Eau de CAYENNE.

A short time ago the CHRONICLE rec
commended its readers to try the effects
of cayenne pepper on trees and vines in
fected with lice or bugs. The other
morning lady on Fourth street deter
mined. to profit by the advice, and she
plentifully busted the handsome vines
and Towering shrubs in front of her
residence with the scarlet condiment.
just as the operation was over and the
lady had closed the front door behind
her, peddler, dressed in a gorgeous plug
hat and immaculate linen duster walked
up the front steps and while waiting for
response. to his knock, thought he
would sniff the fragrance of the lovely
flowers. One sniff was all he asked, and
when the lady came to the door all she
saw was the coat tail of the peddler
swaying in the breeze as he huurriedly
closed the front gate and managed to
stammer out between coughs and
sneezes, s'I can't speak,

Died.

The Oregonian of yesterday contains
the notice of the death, on the 10Th inst.
at Portland, of Martha Eveline, second
daughter of w. R. and Alice Abrams, of
Ellensburg, Wash, aged four years,
eight months, and eleven days. The de-
ceased will be remembered, by the many
friends of her parentsfin this city, as an
unusually bright and winsome child and
her departure is clouded with more than
ordinary sadness from the fact that her
parents are now in Europe.

The Robber Got Little.

A interview with Charley Adams, the
stage driver, who was held up on the
Deschutes hill on Wednesday last, re-
veals little new to the CHRONICLE beyond
the fact that it is now pretty certain
that the thief got away with no valuable
registered matter, and, outside of money
enclosed in ordinary letters, of which
comparatively little passes through the
mail, he can not be much richer than he
was before. The three mail sacks were
brought in on the stage last evening.
They had been cut open and riaed.
The third sack was found in Buck Hollow
and beside it was the greater portion of
the mail which had been opened and
left there. There is yet no evidence
that the robber had an accomplice be-
yond the fact that two masks were
found near the scene of the robbery.
1t is believed the thief had a horse
cached in Buck Hollow during the time
of the robbery and that as soon as he
had gone through the mail he left for
day before the robbery, at least one
registered package, containing $500 in
greenbacks, was mailed from this city
for Il man in Crook county; but the
thief was too late to catch this by one
day. The package, addressed to the
that Mr.. Fairchild suspected to contain
greenbacks, was found with other rified
mail and was package of dry goods.

Issue the Bonds in the Spring.

Comptroller Larson is not inclined
to favor the seeming disposition of the
council to postpone the issuing of the
bonds until there shall have been new
plan provided by the revision of the
charter. Mr.. Larson says he has learn
ed from conversation with financial
men that the natural season for bond
selling is the early spring, when the
usual winter stringency is loosening
its grasp and bankers are seeking an
investment for the currency which has
been INDUCED in during the past few
weeks by the local bankers and business
men, as will as the city officials for
purchaser of the kean bonds has
awakened a strong interest in Superior
paper abroad, and letters are almost
daily being received from houses deSlr
ing to purchase. If the issue OF the
bonds is postponed too long, Mr.. Lar
son fears that the same trouble Will be
experienced of no funds to pay CON
tractors estimates next season, while
the same objections viii be urged Of
issuing at periods too close together,
which it has been claimed affects the
demand and reduces the city's oppor
tunities of selling. Mr.. Larson be-
Eeves that if the bonds were ordered
issued now, there would be no doubt

obtained for them by the time the
