 represents great life and prosperous little camp at present. Mir. Gray has cleared off large piece of land at the mouth of Roaring Gulch, and is rnak ing preparations to build large board ing house for his men. The building will be constructed from lumber, 3nd will be large enough to accOmodatc :35O men. Office buildings and store houses will also be built as soon as the lu n Der is sawed The Sawmill is now com. pleted and forms very pretty piature to those who have been living in tants and dingy log cabins heretofore The PeltOn wheel brought in was not large enough for the power obtained from the dam put in this year, but it wi!l be enlarged in a few days, so that tle mill can saw it's full capacity. MT. Gray is working in the rock where eyer the snow allows and we uuders tand that good results are obtained iu each place.
 MT. Lathrop of the c. 4. M. t D. Go has almost completed his barn opl osite the mouth of Rock Creek, it is a very large structure for log cabin style and completely changes the aspect of that vicinity As soon as the barn is com pleted, he will build permanent bridge across the Kotsira river. This will not only be great benefit to the company, but will also be a great source of relief to the general r bile going and coming up and dowl the river, as this has always been ole of the most dangerous lords we have to make.
 MT. Greenig and Sheehan have their cabin completed, and are now working on the Surprise Creek group of claims, and the results are surprising all who see them. The ore which was formerly bornite scattered through white quartz has changed into body of solid bor- mite and promises to be another Be- nanza, the surface showing can be traced, without difficulty, five claims in length and has an average width of 371a feet from wall to wall.
 MT. A. K. Crawford ha3 been work ing on the Lost Cabin mine for some time and as usual, is obtaining nothing but good results.
 MT. A. Barrett has been working on his Rock creek property, and had a look and air about him that would in dicate good showing, but Tony dosn't say much. He had very narrow es. cape from large brown bear q few days ago, but he was above the tree on the mountain side and the bear below, SO there was no serious results, other than the tree was shriven of all it's foliage in Tonies ascent.
 The c. M. & D. Co. have started their development on the claims situated on the Klevesna river, but no reports have been received as per results.B
 Chas Wulf is working on some Cop. per creek properties but will soon be able to start development on the Klsvesna claims located last Sept
 We have been having snowy weather more or less since the first of the month but it seems to be clearing up at present.
 Work on the telegraph line will com mence just as soon as the sawmill is in perfect order which will be about the 20th of this month.

An UnintentionaI joke.

An English writer tells the story OF
hfs first sixpence, which he earned by
an unprecedented joke. His father
had been for twenty-seven years en-
gagged in suit In chancery and had
just gained his cause. The expenses Of
the suit, however, had swallowed up
the entire estate, the residue being
merely 3s. Cd. The writer says:
My father ranged the seven six
pences on our breakfast table.
My boy" said he, 'see what comes
Of going to law in Great Britain! Your
mother has told you that l have won
my suit in chancery?"
Eyes, papa
"Well, then, look! That is all I get
Of It," and he pointed grimly at the
s1xpences.
l opened wide my eyes. Cali you get
Of the whole suitY' I echoed with a
puzzled air.. convinced that a suit in
chancery was composed, as other suits
are. Of coat, waistcoat and trousers.
"Why, papa, those are only the but
tonsr'
It was this deplorable joke that earn
ed me my sixpence, for my father,
laughing, tossed me one across the ta-
bic, and rushed off with it like dog
pelted with bone.

A Friend In Need.

Immediately after the earthquake in
California in 1906 relief stations were
established in San Francisco and Oak
land. Supplies poured in from neigh
boring ranches, other towns and other
states, but almost all that was sent
needed to be cooked before it could be
eaten, and Of course in many instances
homeless wanderers were in immediate
need Of food. The volunteer cooks did
the best they could. They boiled great
kettles Of soup, caldrons of coffee and
oceans Of tea, but it was impossible to
cook rapidly enough to supply all COM
ers. Late one afternoon when the
cooked food supply was running low
and long line of hungry persons still
waited to be fed wagon halted before
one of these stations, and bluff old
ranchman addressed the lady in charge.

The BIacksmith's Sleeves.

An aged woman was standing before
a beautiful picture Of a blacksmith in
a local department store. The picture
was remarkable painting and had
evoked SO much praise that hundreds
Of visitors thronged around it. The
figure was that Of a village black
smith standing at his forge, which was
blazing with light that Illuminated
the whole room. The woman came to
the canvas with several younger WON
en-, apparently her children. All stood
with rapt attention before the work Of
art, contemplating the light effects and
the beautiful shadows. One Of the
younger women asked of the elderly
one what she thought of the picture.
SWELL, it's all right but the sleeves"
she replied. II lived in the country a
long time, and I know something that
the painter with all his KNOWN didn't
know. That blacksmith's sleeves are
rolled out. Now, they don't wear them
that way. A blacksmith always turns
his sleeves in so the dyin' sparks
won't catch."-Indianapolis News.

EARTHQUAKE Franks.

Hindustan has had many important
geological changes effected by earth
quakes. In 1862 Chittagong was VIC
lently shaken, the earth opening in
many places and throwing up water
and mud Of sulphurous SMELL Then
sixty square miles Of coast suddenly
and permanently subsidized, one Of the
Mug mountains entirely disappeared,
and another sank SO low that only the
summit remained. At the same time
a corresponding rise Of ground took
place at Ramree, an island farther
along the coast. Again, at Clutch, in
1919 the fort and village of Sindree
were submerged, and about five miles
distant long elevated mound was
raised, measuring some fifty miles by
sixteen in places, out Of what had been
a perfectly level plain.
