An Old Time Prospector.

Timothy Meehan of Creston was in
town Saturday and made the Bee a call.
Mr. Meehan shares in the general good
opinion of the Bee and wants it as long
as he lives, so he says.
Mr.. Meehan is rancher now, but in
days gone by he was a miner and pros
pected all through the west. In the fall
of 1859 he and eight other gold seekers
started from California to Virginia City,
Nevada. There they were offered $3.50
a day to work, but they had heard of
gold at Walker City, further on, and de-
cided to go there. Their grub supply
was ample to last the trip from Virginia
City to Walker City, and they expected
to replenish it at the latter place. When
they reached their destination they
found there was no grub in the town for
sale. What was there was all needed
and it was with considerable difficulty
that they managed to get side of ba-
con. Under such conditions they de-
clded to move on over the Sierras, and
started with quarter of a sack of flour,
the bacon and plenty of tea. Their
rations each day consisted of one small
fiapjack, a slice of bacon each and all
the tea wanted. Near the summit of
the range the flour was exhausted. They
met packers carrying flour into Walker
City, and in consideration of their dire
extremity succeeded in buying quarter
OF sack of the -four for S25. The
packers told them that the nearest ranch
was thirty five miles away-a long tramp
for famished men, but they finally made
it, only to find the supply of food
at the ranch exhausted, and the
man of the house away after
more. He had already been gone three
days and there was no telling when he
would be back. There was nothing in
the way of food around the place but
milk. They drank nine pansful of it.
The nearest town was twelve miles dis
tant and they started. The trip took
them from 8 in the morning until mid
night. Ordinarily the distance would
have been covered in four hours. Mr..
Meehan says that if anyone wants to
know why it took them so long to cover
the twelve miles he should starye him
self for couple of days, then surfeit
himself on milk and start on twelve
mile tramp and he will soon discover
why travelling is hard. Mr.. Meehan says
ne will never forget that twelve miles
from strawberry Ranch" to Columbia.
Food was abundant at the latter place,
and as Mr.. Meehan's party had no lack
of money their wants of the inner man
were soon supplied.
Mr.. Meehan is we'll along toward three
score and is now engaged in the peaceful
and prosaic occupation of farming. But
ne still bankers after the danger and ex-
citement of miners life in the days
of SO.

Singular Accident,

Thursday evening Chef Sheldon of
Cayuse creek met with a painful acct
dent and one which may cause him to
walk lame for some time to come. While
splitting wood for threshing machine
engine splinter of steel flew from a
wedge and struck his right leg, passing
between the bone and cords, where it
lodged. The steel tore long rent in the
limb. Mr.. Sheldon came to town and
consulted a physician, who told him that
it had better be left alone, as it would
require considerable cutting to extract
the steel and there was no danger in al
lowing it to remain in the flesh for a
time. Saturday Mr.. Sheldon was in
town and though feeling sore had the
complete use of his leg and thinks he
will suffer no permanent inconvenience
when the wound heals.
