A communication was read from
Secretary Correll, Of the Baker City
society, inviting the Sumpter organi-
zation to participate In picnic to be
held at the pines, nine miles from
Bnakr City, Friday. II was stated
In the letter that the original
intention was to hold this picnic
near Sumpter, but owing to the fact
that tho Sumpter Valley Railroad
company refused to make a salts
factory rate, 1t had to be held near
Baker. The secretary WAS instructed
to inform the sister society that on
account Of the distance II would not
be possible for the Smupter con-
tineent to participate In a body.
Tho matter Of holding a joint
picnic was what FASTENED the
organization Of the Sumpter South
erners. Last Sunday, j. W. Hesden,
city ediotr Of the Baker City Herald,
DR.. Will jackson aud G. II. Stuller,
were here to urge action with this
end In view, aud also to have .
Sumpter body Of Southerners who
would act In concert at future
general gatherings or celebrations.
The object Of the organization ss
stated by Mayor McColloch was to
form a non partisan society Of people

ship is southern birth. Rev. Wilder
stated that he thought beyond any
question he was eligible, since he
himself was native of Kentucky,
with a Kentucky ancestry dating
back 400 years more or less. He
came by his name in peculiar
way, he said. His great, great, great
uncle had been captured by the
Indians, or some other hostile people.
He gave them such race that they
dubbed him Wild. Later they
captured his great, great great grand
father, who was still more feet Of
foot, and he was named Wilder.
So the name had clung to the
family-Wilders from the wilds Of
Kentucky.
Arrangements were discussed for
giving a banquet to consist Of yarns,
'possum, persimmons, jonny cake
with "cawn Ticker" on the side at an
early date. The society adjourned
to meet Monday evening, July -.

II is predicted by many who are
in u position to speak advisediy In
tho matter that the present In
activity In the various industrial
stocks, means turning Of capital In
tho direction of mining. And In
fact there is much evidence To
support tho belief that already In.
vcHtOrs who hitherto looked askance at
mining Hre giving this industry some
attention. The man who acts with
good judgment. employs business
methods In mining can scarcely find
more profitable field. with
adequate resources to begin with,
and ordinary horse sense, mining
offers better returns right today than
any other industry.

rs PHONES OUT
Peoples Company Damaged
Six Hundred Dollars.
Telling A Tree Caused the Trouble
House Set on Fire-Horse shocked
Patience Required BY Patrons Of
Burned Out Phones.

A loss Of five or six hundred dol
lars was entailed on the Peoples
Telephone Company by the accident
which resulted in burning the cable
box and pole on Chestnut street and
Maiden Alley.
About seventy five fuses we're
burned out and some of the phone
boxes are entirely ruined, and will
have to be replaced with new ones.
The phone box and the walls of the
house took dre in the home OF Will
liam johnson on Sunnyside. Mr..
johnson had to knock down the box
and break into the wall to put out
the fire. 1t he had been away from
home the houss might have burned
down.
In several other place the wires
we're red hot, and the wood next to
them was set on fire. At Davidson's
Livery stable, horse steppd on one
of the live wires that was burned
down and fell from the shock. He
was not permanently injured.
Several cool headed persons had
knowledge and presence Of mind
enough to cut the wire leading into
their phones, thus avoiding danger.
The big cable carrying fifty wires
the new supporting wire, three
eIghts of an inch in diameter, and all
the other single wires on the pole at
the cable box were severed by the
heat. 1t is fortunate that another
cable, carrying 104 message wires
had not yet been connected with the
pole 1t would have been except for
little delay in the work.
Nearly all the phones on Sunny
side and many OF the business
phones in the heart of the city were
connected with central through the
cable that was burned. Mr.. Hol-
land says that so many phones nee
repair, that every one will have to
be patient. All the wires at the
pole which was on fire will have 10
be spllced, new arm supporters erect
ted lor them, and then the phones
will be put In working order as soon
as possible. But it cannot all be
done in day Neither is it safe to
carry on the work while it rains.
Each patron of a burned out phone
will have te await his turn. They
will be repaired just as soon as pos
sible.
Several Bell phones are also re-
ported to have the fuse burned out
by the electric shock, Lut the man
ager here reports their lines are all
right No harm was done to them.
There was considerable delay in
putting out the fire in the telephone
pole yesterday. The fire company
was afraid an electric shock would
be conducted through the water,
should they turn on stream.
The Babcock fire extinguisher which
was tried was not successful. Final
ly Mr.. l. C. Cline one OF the Peoples
telephone men assisted by Harry
Runner, turned on the water, and
put out the fire.
A tree that was cut by some work
men for Jack Evans at his lot in
Falling Run hollow fell on the trolley
and telephone wires and caused all
the trouble.

People who have trouble with
wires from the trolly current should
be very careful not to touch the
wires. They may have an end put
to their troubles by the shock which
they are liable to receive from touch
ing live wire. The very best thing
to do is to get as far away as posi-
BILE from the wire when there is
frouhln
