While fishing on Mann creek last

man ought to feel pleased with him

the Shearer place, then sent to the
Willamette valley for a charming girl

buckling down to the business of liv-

about six hundred bushels of wheat

Over the Grade.

The big boiler that Mcmillan q
Co. are transferring to Warrens came
to grief In the Weiser Canyon about
Is miles above Council at point on
the road known as Mail Cabin hill.
The road is cut out from the sides of
the mountain and numerous springs
were opened and flowed into the road.
The effect was to weaken the bank,
which gave way under the great weight
and the boiler and hind wheels of the
wagon relied down about 80 feet and
lodged against big pine tree. In
going over the wagon uncoupled, so
fortunately neither drivers nor team
were injured, and, excepting broken
reach, no damage was done to the
wagon. The old wagon road, aban-
doned is about 10 feet below the
boiler, and it is likely it will be let
down to this and taken out that way.
Up to the time of the accident the
daily progress was better than was
expected, considering that we have
five bicycles on the tax list and an
other in sight, something ought tc
be done to improve the roads anc
then such trifling adjuncts as the
transportation of mining machinery
would be possible.
