Of $3.50. In the mining regions of Ore
gon a sharp prospector can clean up sev-
eral times that much by merely looking
at his claim.
Articles of incorporation were fled
yesterday by the Gold and Silver Mining
Company of Antelope. The capital
stock is $3.50, 900, divided into shares of
100000, par value ten cents each
share. The principal Office will be at
The Dalles, and the incorporators are
w. N. Wiley. R. f. Saltmarshe and
j. B. Crossen. Five mines have already
been included IN the incorporation, and
as it will be seen that it is virtually a
local affair, will no doubt receive the CO.
operation of many and prove success.
Although in extremely poor health,
Mrs. G. E. Haight has determined to
attempt the trip to her old home and
relatives in Connecticut, hoping thereby
to receive benefit, or at least to spend
her last days with her own people. Her
friends here have deeply regretted the
serious illness of so long standing. which
the eetimable lady has been called upon
to suffer and while they also regret part
ing with her, it is with the hope that
she may improve thereby. Mrs. Haight
desires THE CHRONICLE to express her
thanks to her many friends for kindness
shown and to say to them that while
she will be unable to receive them be-
fore her departure (some time during the
early part of next week., a card receiver
will be placed at her parlor door, in the
building over Pease & Mays' store, and
she Will be very glad to receive the cards
of any who may desire to leave them.
School Superintendent Gilbert has for
the past week been making it point to
visit the schools near the city, and yes
terday made a trip on his bicycle to
Chenoweth creek. Upon returning,
when about half mile this side of the
school house, his wheel struck large
rock and Mr.. Gilbert was thrown about
fifteen feet onto some rocks. He was
rendered unconscious for a time, and
when he came to, found that his hip and
back were SO badly bruised that he was
unable to assist himself. AS no one
happened along the road he lay there
from till 4 O'Clock, when boy appeared
on the scene, and Immediately went on
to the school house and informed the
teacher, who procured team and came
to his assistance. He was then brought
home and has since been confined to
his bed. Mr.. Gilbert'e health has moi
been the best for some time, and the &C
cident is particularly unfortunate as be
will probably be laid up for several days
at least.
Although not large crowd, it was an
appreciative audience that listened t.
the violin recital of Elmore Rice las
evening at the K of P. hail, and ap
plause was frequent as number aftel
number was perfectly rendered by tht
artist, for such he must be who, unaideC
save by the splendid accompaniment O
Prof. Birgfeld, entertains an audience TO
wholly incompetent to criticise the worl
of violinist; but at the came time W
know what pleases the ear and what ap
parently held other listeners spell bound
and such was the case last night. Bette
violinists have perhaps visited our city
but tits seldom we have snch an artist il
our midst. Each selection was vel
chosen and many were 30 sweet an
touching as to almost bring tears to tn
eyes; but the effect when Mr.. Ric
struck the familiar strains of "Kentuck
Home" and 'Suwanee River wa
electrical and the encore at the clos
told of the appreciation, and the au
dience was repaid by that ever-pleasin
selection "Traumerei." Mr.. Rice lef
today for his home in Olympia.
