their Commencement exercises on
Friday evening, June %.
At an early hour the people

standing room was at a premium.
The hall was beautifully decorated
with evergreens, bunting and
flowers, the class colors, cerise and
white and the rose, the class flower
being much in evidence. In a
conspicuous place was the class
motto, "Impossible ia ur-Amer-
lean" in evergreens.
At $50 the curtain rose reveal

and gentlemen, the former looking
very charming in their dainty
white costumes and the latter
handsome and manly in their black

Wholesale Cattle Stealing


The cattle rustlers are strictly in

exploit consists in the running off
of 16 head of cattle on Sunday of
last week belonging to John Crea,
and although the sheriff has had
four men securing the country on
both sides of. the Salmon and Clear
water rivers, no trace of the thieves
or cattle has beed found. 1t has

hard and costly experience, that
this county is infested with the

it is suspected that they have their
headquarters and rendezvous on
the reservation, no evidence suffi-

Another Good Quartz Strike

Another Good Quartz Strike.
Sherwood McGibbon and Ike
Maxwell u were in town last Satur-
day fro m new strike of rich gold
bearing quartz which they made
about I wo months ago on Crooked
river, one and One-half miles below
the mo nth of Relief creek, and
three miles from the Cleveland and
GrangevilIe groups. The new
strike shows up IL feet Of ore that
gives good gold prospects in the
pan al the way across the ledge,
and they have sunk on it to a
depth Of IA feet by shaft 4x9 feet
in the clear, and have also run a
tunnel on the ledge for a distance
of 80 feet; all this work shows up
a very strong ledge of ore which
prospec cts splendidly. The foot
wall shown in the shaft is gneiss,
and the hanging wall exposed in
the tn mel is granite or mica schist,
which is the general formation in
that belt. The ore is nicely
granul lated quartz which favors
very much in appearance the ore
from the Newsome creek porphyry
ledges, although the new strike
carries more sulphurets than
the NewsOme ores, and is
theref fore concentrating PROPOSE
tion, like all the Relief o.es.
The boys have named their two
locations the Big Elkhorn and
Black Champion, and the north
extension has been discovered and
locate "a by Butcher Bill. The
survey for the Northern Pacific
railroad extension to Buffalo Hump
runs within 300 feet of the side
lines Of the new discovery, and all
in all we judge the new strike to be
the most important which has
been made this season. Relief
creek lies seven miles south of Elk
City, and some highly valuable
properties are located upon it, upon
which much development work has
beendone in times past, showing up
some valuable ore bodies which
ought to be netting their owners
big money if properly handled.
Upon the Cleveland property
$4,000 has been expended in
development work and surface
impr provements, and the group
ought to be making money for its
owners but for refractory partner
ship interests. Upon the Grange
