The NEWS FROM OUR NEIGHBORs.
Ockonook.

OCkOnOON.
OCKoNooK, Jan. 2S.-Prominent
among the events since New Years
day is the social hop given at the
new house of Mr.. c. P. Hill, our
worthy Custom House officer, by
the estimable gentlemen of the
Dyxing Company, at Ockonook.
The rooms were beautifully decor
ated, and the floor was in splendid
condition. There were about 30
couple present, each and all SEEM
ed bent on having a good time
The music was supplied by our ex-
cellent friend Mr.. Andy Abernethy.
The old proverb or adage is mus
ic hath charms to soothe the saw
age breast" it also has the power
to inspire the civilized foot, be it
from an orchestra or fiddle, it is all
the same. The foot trained or un-
trained wants to keep time to it.
Given, then, a good floor, a jolly
good company, it is no wonder the
Ball at OckOnook was a success be-
yond question. The supper was
tasty and good, none in the past
were better served. The gentle
men We'd with each other in seeing
that the ladies were well attended
to.
The snow fell heavily in Decemb-
er and the first part of January
which impeded travel for several
days, but the weather remained
mild. The ground is now covered
over with about one foot of snow
Allured by the hope of catching
fur bearing animals, several men
cut loose from the valley last fall
and are spending the winter in The
mountains. Game is plentiful
enough in the mountains, but the
state of the snow must impede then
travelling till spring.
Our worthy friend, Major Barnes
of this place, enjoys good health
and doing good business, supplying
provisions, etc. to the Dykers, Woo
cutters and ranchers, also the Indi
: ans.
The Indians have killed numbe
of fur bearing animals this winter
An accident occurred a few day
ago which was nearly fatal, at tn
Lizard mine. A bucket full of or
was hauled up to the top Of tn
shaft, twenty feet, when the rop
slipped, or something gave away

A Jolly Surprise Party.

A Jolly Surprise Party.
One of the jolliest times was en-
joyed by quite a crowd of town
folks on Friday night of last week.
The occasion was surprise party
given to Mr.. and Mrs. Dobson and
their son and daughter, Mr.. and
Miss Dobson. The di. lance out to
their place from town is seven miles.
Three sleigh loads and couple in
a cutter constituted the procession.
Mr.. John O'Hogge headed the line
with his sleigh which accommoda-
ted 10 passengers. Next came G.
S. McKinster driving a sleigh with
three couple. Charlie Cole had an
other sleigh load of II. John Cal
lahan and Mike Boyle brought up
the rear in a cutter. 1t was 10
o'clock when Mr.. Dobson,s place
was reached. The household, like
all good, honest people, had retired
for the night, all Unconscious of the
catastrophy in store for them. 1t
was a rude awakening to hear the
heavy pounding on the door and
Jameson's stentOrian voice demand
ing admittance for the mob. The
surprised folks hastily prepared to
receive their unceremOnious callers.
When the door was opened and the
callers filed into the house, Mr.
Dobson received with that genial,
familiar smile of his, but Mrs.
Dobson threw up her hands in
horror as she saw so many ladies
without moment to prepare for
them, but recovered in time to give
all most graceful welcome. The
younger Mr.. Dobson assisted the
gentlemen in taking care of the
teams, while Miss Dobson lighted
the fire without Mr.. Sinclair's
assistance.
The night was spent in music
song and dance. A lunch, brought
along for the occasion, was served
at the proper hour. 1t was near
daylight when the homeward march
was taken up. On the way home
some of the gentlemen made great
efforts towards producing vocal
music. In this connection We
should especially mention Messrs

Mutton or Beef.

It might have been thought that
with this disposition by the public to
discard beef on account of the increased
cost, a demand would have sprung up
for provisions and mutton, but such
has not been the case to any apprecia-
BILE extent, and why, it is hard to say.
The mutton trade should certainly
benefit when any difficulty such as the
present affects the cattle market.
Americans have never taken kindly to
mutton, and we venture to say that
the proportion of mutton eaters to
beef-eaters in the country is very small,
but is accounted for by the fact that up
to recently we have not raised sheep
fer food purposes, but for wool, and
consequently the mutton from such
sheep has never become popular as the
quality in general has been inferior.
4 time has now arrived for these con-
ditions to change. The day of inferior
sheep and mutton has of necessity
gone by, for there is no longer any
profit in raising sheep for wool apd II
raised at all II must be for their value
as food In view of the backward con-
dition of the mutton trade in past
years. for the reasons mentioned above
it is obvious that quality will be an i'm
portant factor in the business here
after. Our friends in the small stock
trade will not be alive to their interests
if they fail to recognize that beef
difficulty is mutton's opportunity

SPLINTER THROUGH THE BODY.

Long silver of Oak.

A most extraordinary accident Oc-

splinter about eighteen inches in
length. was flung from a rapidly re-
vOlVing rip saw and forced through
the body of young man, an empluye,
who happened TO be passing at the
moment. The victim was Mr.. George

Globe File works. and his duties took
him into the room where the saw was
in operation TO see how some certain
work was getting along. AS he en-
tered a piece Of oak was being sawed,
and a wedge shaped silver, about
eighteen inches long almost a sharp
point at one end. and an inch and a
half at the blunt end. was trimmed

he tumbled his hands instinctively
sought the weapon of death, graSping
1t with both hands. with a mighty
effort he pulled it out and flung it
from him, and rolled like ball upon
the floor in an agony that cannot be
told in words. The alarm was given,
doctor was sent for. and young
kroeger was carried TO the office. He
was unconscious all the while. His
wound was attended TO as well as
could be hurriedly done. He then in

The French Pay the Highest.

At this moment when the French
budget is being discussed in the Cham
Der. and when the ministry proposes
new taxes in order to face the deficit
Of 56.oOO.O00 francs for the year 1896,
il may be interesting to note that
France is the country which now pays
the highest taxes. 1t has also the
largest debt of all at the rate of 662
francs per head Of its inhabitants.
The rate is AL francs in England; 365
in AuStria-Hungary; $50 in Italy;
3J1 in Spain: TO- in Russia; 80 in
Germany. and 14G francs in the Unit
ed States. The standing national debt
of France amounts to 2J,OOO,OOO,0OO

was the first time that they had ever been

watch them. Tho eyes of tho elder were

even went through his lines. You could
see her lips moving all the timc he was
talking or singing. The younger watched
