Little 'Totsy" Schober, who
has been ill for a number of
weeks with what was thought to
be rheumatism, was operated on
last Friday by DR.. Campbell, of
Grangeville, assisted by DR..
Truitt of this place. The opera
ton consisted of cutting down
into the thigh near the hip joint
and treating the bone which had
started to decay. At present the
little patient is resting easy and
it is thought will soon be able to
be up again although fears are
entertained that the affected
limb will be somewhat shorter
than the other.
From a financial standpoint the
dance last Friday night was not
a success, just enough being real
lied from it to pay expenses, but
in a social way it was great.
The music furnished by Miss Nc
Kinney, painist, and a violinist
from Kamiah was the finest
heard in Cottonwood for many
days, as all who know good music
must admit. The crowd was
rather small so that there was
room and to spare but all did
their best and had an excellent
time. The supper served by the
lodge was par excellence and
great inroads were made into it
by the dancers. The dance did
not break up until about 8 O'Clock
A. M. Had it not been for the
busy season a good crowd would
no doubt have been in attend
ance.

Soon Establish
Camps Here
Contractors Will Soon Place Men
on the Prairie and Have Camps
all Along the Line. Many Men
at Work Near CuIdesac.

Engineer S. J. Mayo, of the
Northern Pacific surveying crew,
who left couple weeks ago for
Culdesac to do work near that
place, returned with his survey
ing party Sunday and will re-
main here for the rest Of the
summer. He has been given the
district from about a mile north
of town out to Ferdinand to
handle and says another crew Of
surveyors will come to this place
Sunday which will have charge
of the work through town and to
the south of this place.
Mr.. Mayo says the work is be-
ing pushed rapidly out of Guide
sac and several hundred men are
at work between that place and
Kippen. He said there were
about ten tunnels to be built on
the line out of Culdesac but that
work would not be commenced
on them until a quantity of ma
chine drills could be secured
from the east. Then the tunnel
work will be completed as rapid
ly as possible and when finished
the track will be laid as far as
Lawyers canyon where the work
of putting in the big steel bridge
will be encountered.
Mr.. Mayo says camps will be
established at lilo and Ferdinand
ina week or so and in about three
weeks one will be established
out on Stock creek north of town
and another shortly afterward at
this place. The men at these
camps will do the heavy rock
work and the grading and in
about a month more it is expect
ed work will be humming all
along the line. It is thought
much of the grade will be ready
to receive the the rails as soon as
the tunnel work is completed out
of Culdesac and if it is all can
expect to see the cars running
into Cottonwood before snow
flies this fall.
