this enterprise they were doing well, and fortune seemed smiling on them.
 ''ln addition to their boarding house business Mr. Horton made considerable money hunting game and selling meat He was an expert hunter and a fine marks man. lt Is said he made several thousand dollars last summer by the use of his rifle. Sometimes he would go out hunting and be gone from home several days, but would nearly always succeed returning with a good quantity of meat. Occasionally Mrs. Horton would accompany her husband on some of these hunting trips, she being in excellent health and capable of enduring hardships as we'll as a man.
 "ln September she wrote to her sister here, Mrs. John Zimmer, which is the last news the relatives have heard from the Hortons direct. In the letter she wrote that she and her husband would soon start down the river hunting and prospecting, expecting to be gone some time, and that she should not become uneasy or alarmed fl she did not hear any more from them for several months.
 "When the first news came announcing the probability of the misfortune Of the Hortons, it was in letter written to Mrs. Zlmmer by an acquaintance of Mrs. Hor' ton and expressed the fear that they had drowned. The relatives were slow to ae- cept the report, however, and have been anxously awaiting news direct from the Hortons. but nothing has come.
 "When they started to the Klondike country Mr. and Mrs. Horton had with them sI4oo in cash. They made eonsid' erabe money last summer and it Is thought, must have had quit. an amount at the time of their death. Mr. Horton Is also supposed to have money and bills re- eeivabe in eastern Oregon, but he never told even his father his business affairs.
