in this respect he was disappointed Mr..
Mcclure. however. did attempt TO shoot
curlew, but he afterwards blamed his i'll
success to the powder, which he said was
weak. At any event. the curlew went on
TO other pastures.

ard party had their midday lunch. II
consisted of crackers, dried beef. cookies,
canned veal and watermelon for dessert.
The horses, a team of grays, were un-
hitched from the surrey, led to the Pala-
dora creek and watered and then tied 10
the front of the vehicle TO be fed. The
party gathered at the rear of the surrey
to eat lunch. Mr.. MCGUIRE. with crack
er in one hand and a piece of dried beef
in the other. asserted that he would rather
drive through the county than ride
through IN a Pullman car. While talking
of present conditions in the county. he
was able to devour an immense quantity
Of lunch. The other fellows took little
time for talking, but went into the lunch.

the right trail to Beaver was found andd
the party, thoroughly tired out, found a
hotel where lodging and food could be Sc
cured. Even at night there were many
persons present to welcome Mr. Mcclure.
snd bright and early the following morn
ing a number of persons were ready to
take him to different places in the city
and to talk over conditions With him.

Smoky Atmosphere

The air has been very hazy for several
days and Monday was So Tiled with
smoke that the mountains on all sides
were entirely obscured from view. So
heavy did the dark pail hang that the
suns rays were shut out aud the odor Of
smoke was strong in the air. There are
many causes assigned for the %phenome-
non, but the most reason able is that the
smoke comes from the big forest fires
which have been raging for some time
in Oregon and Washington.
