oped into a frst-class horse trader.
His great speciality is in trading
"sight-urseen," and he is never
known to rue, that is, unless the
other fellow does.
Dan Grady is having his store
buildings moved back off Of the
railroad right-of-way, and will have
the low ground in front of them
filled in with dirt. This will make
decided improvement in that part
of town.
Messrs. A. 7. RAIDER and +. M.
Wadsworth, Sr., started for the

today. Mr.. RAIDER expresses con-
fidence that he can find something
worth the effort in the mineral line
yet on the Siletz.
Judge Burt returned from Toll
man Springs yesterday in worse
condition than when he left home.

Virgil Waters, the efficient and
popular recorder of Benton county,
came over from Corvallis this even

informs us that the business pros
poets in his county are decidedly
better than they were year ago.
The Yaquina Bay creamery ac-
quires reputation for their butter

all parts of the state. This is sig

The cook on the steamer Farallon
was assistant cook on the ill-fated
Colima, which sank some few
months ago with about 200 souls
on board. This man says that the
vessel was loaded with lumber and
flat cars, and that she had no load
in the hold at all. The captain
turned her broadSide TO the sea,
and the vessel promptly capsized.
The social given by the ladies
for the benefit of the NJ. +. church
last night was we'll attended. The
exercises consisted of a literary and
musical program, which was fol-
lowed by lunch of fruit and cake.
The program was we'll rendered,
some of the numbers given possess
ing much merit. The receipts |
were up to the highest stexpectatious,
netting $3.50. The ladies deserve
great credit for their efforts TO
make the thing success.
Messrs. Crosno and Jones have
leased the mining rights on the
beach just south of Otter Rock,
and have started to working the
prospect this week. The black
sand on their claim is very rich in
-four gold, and If they save any
thing like fair proportion of it
they will make a good thing out of
their lease, both for themselves and
for the owners of the land. Chas. /
Rulil, an old and experienced miner,
is their head man.
Talk about the weather bureau,
and all the expense required 10
keep it up. Lincoln county has a
weather man, who if the weather
don't suit him, changes it. This
gifted prophet is Citizen John, au
Indian well-known to many of our
