Oskaloosa, June Entertainments
In the Oskaloosa and Buxton interur.
ban may be looked for within short
time. c. B. Judd telegraphs the direc-
tors from Pittsburg that he will be in
Oskaloosa this week to take charge of
the work This is glad news for the
local enthusiasts. Mr.. Judd comes to
have charge of the detail work of the
construction. His first work will be to
look after contracts and he will lose
no time in advertising for bids for the
work and in handling all the business
that will come up, in connection with
the building of the line bttween this
city and Beacon. This will be the first
step, and having commenced with the
work, it is more than likely that the
gentleman will stay with the company
until the line is completed to Buxton.

1t has been announced that the Des
Moines City interurban interests, under
the infringement Of President Fl. H.
Polk, will proceed at once with new
interurban line to Knoxville by way of
Carlisle and Indianola. The announce
ment was made following the return of
President H. H. Polk Of the interurban
and General Manager G. B. Hipee from
New York, where financial backing for
the construction of the new road was
secured. The Polk interests, in their
determination to build the Indianola &
Carlisle lines, have practically given
notice to other promoters that they
propose to control the interurban trof-
fic in and out of Des Moines.-I nterur-
ban Railway Journal, Indianapolis.
The grading upon the Des Moines-
Indianola Interurban company's line
will be started In about thirty days.
1t is the plan to build south from Fort
Des Moines, distance Of twelve or
fourteen miles, and to use the Fort Des
Moines line into Des Moines. The max
imum grade by this route will be 11A
per cent and the maximum curvature
degrees There will be two river
bridges, one over North river and one
over Middle river, besides number of
good-sized bridges over ravines. The
place of crossing the rivers has not
been determined. Eighty-pound steel
rails are to be used and the best road
bed possible. The plan of extending
the line from Indianola to Charlton,
Corydon and Centerville is being con-
sidered. At Charlton it would cross
the main line of the Burlington, dis

In Mining Industry.

La 0rande--Aaaay returns have been

Of the mill recently installed by that
company on It's mining property up the
Grand Ronde River. These assays show
values ranging from tsa5 to $3.50 TO the

mill shows that tho ore will run els or
more per ton, and whom the machinery

tion from 90 to % per cent Of the val.
ues can DO saved.
Tho mill installed u but small. Only
nve.horHepower is required to run the
crushor and other machinery, and but
ono man Ia needed TO superintond tho
entire plant. Mining men arc enthusi.
autie over the success Of the mill, and
believe this character Of mill has solved
the problem Of how TO handle the ore OF
the Grand Ronde district. A few years
ago IL was the opinion Of miners that
the up.Tivcr country ores could not be
worked with small capital; that not less
than $4,000 or 100000 would be re-
quired TO install suitable plant for
tho treatment OF tho ores found there,
The trial OF tho Aurolia company has
proved that the orc can DO handled on
very much smaller scale. with high
percentage Of profits, or even higher, "a

company TO put In another mill next
