ON THE VALENCIA.

j. Z. McCarrick, otherwise known
throughout Northern Montana AS
Hogan, the fastest buggy washer in
the world" and who recently arrived
from San Francisco to take q posi-
ton with VIM. j. Swanton, is sur
prised to learn during the past few
weeks that many Of his friends in
this section had been counting him as
dead for some time past. Mr.. Nc
Carrick, or Hogan" was among the
passengers on the i'll fated steamer
Valencia, and among the few VINO
escaped. He was travelling with his
room mate w;-o had in his possession
memorandum book belonging to
Hogan" and after the wreck re-
ported him among those missing. He
is however very much alive, as can
be seen by a visit to SWanton's liv-
cry, where his genius in the care Of
horses and buggies is becoming very
apparent He completed this week
a most ingenious contrivance which
he calls "California Jack" 1t is
constructed Of two by skies and IS
used to raise a buggy fro-l the
ground in washing, Hogan" pli1cs
himself greatly on his swiftness and
is looking for bets that he can
wash more buggies in less time than
any man living.
