 The Odd Fellows report quite an un- usual occurrence at the hall while the lodge was in session Monday night. An alarm was made at the door but not the kind necessary to gain admission; but as the business of the intruders seemed to be urgent they were permitted to enter. Investigation proved them not enemies but members of the Rebekah Lodge laden with all kinds of good things to eat. The business of the lodge was unceremoniously dispensed with and the sumptuous feast eagerly de- voured.
 Mrs. E. $. w. Drought feels that our interview with Judge Butt published last week did the Major an injustice in that it did not state that the 1900 acres of land upon which options were secur- ed did not cover the land wanted by Major Drought, and that is the reason he did not accept and resume work. Comparatively none of the options were renewed in the vicinity of the shaft, so as to protect the work he had already begun, and without this he considered it neither obligatory nor profitable to himself to resume work. Mrs. Drought says that the machinery ordered here some weeks ago would now be in oper- ation had the Majors request been com- piled with. Not only would the drilling have been resumed at the shaft, but two other drills would have been put to work on the other portions of the land option ed. She makes this statement in the absence of the Major, who is still in Old Mexico and cannot speak for himself at this time.
