WIN BRIDES AT 500 APIECE

Husum, Wash, Dec. 6-Two young
Germans living on their ranches up
the White Salmon river, in the Trout
Lake region. adopted a novel way in
securing brides to relieve the monotony
of single blessedness. An elderly
woman arrived from Germany during
the summer to visit relatives near
Trout Lake. She was not posing as a
matrimonial agent. but Incidentally
mentioned to the young ranchers that
she possessed two handsome daughters
in the old country who could be per
suaded into marrying providing their
fares were paid to the nearest railroad
point in the vicinity. The two young
men advanced the price for two brides,
$l00 each. and awaited their coming
with much anxiety. The young men
were at the station on the day of the
arrival of the long g-distance marriage
ables, accompanied by the impromptu
matchmaker, who asked the gentle
men to select their life partners. No
choice was intimated, and each accept
ed the nearest one to him, piloted the
handsome young girls to the residence
of minister, where the double wedd-
ing was cousumated. Any one VISIT
ing the Trout Lake region can find
these two young couples living life
of thrift and happiness, notwthstand-
ing their courtship was of short dura-
ton.

THE VOTE IN 1906,
Smith Had Plurality of 3OS Over
Howell, and a Majority of
235 Over All.


1t is frequently asked how MANY
votes each of the candidates for gov
ernor received in Terrell county in
1906.
In order to give it's readers accu-
rate information The News looked
up the record Monday, and found
that there were cast in the primary
two years ago 1,173 votes, of which
Hoke Smith received 7O4, Clark
Howell 1896, Dick Russell IS, and
J. H. Estill 8. Not a vote was cast
for j. M. Smith. Smiths plural
ity over Howell was 3O8, and his
majority over all was 235.
The campaign in the county is
reaching that degree of warmth
which characterized it in 1906. Both
sides are busy, and it is generally
conceded that the result will be much
closer than before.

Nauseating VapOrs from City's Dump

Saws Petition in DAMAGE Suit

Nauseating VapOrs from City's Dump
ing Ground Smell to High Heaven,
Says Petition in Damage Suit.
The last issue of The News stated
that Mrs. A. E. White had entered
suit against the mayor and aldermen
of Dawson, for $1,000 damages, al
leging that her property has been
injured and the health OF herself and
family jeopardized by the city depos-
iting its garbage, refuse matter and
dead carcaSses in the swamp that
skirts the southern part of Daw-
son, and within three hundred yards
of her home.
Mrs. White not only wants dam
ages, but she wants the town author
tiles enjoined from depositing, or
permitting to be deposited there,
dead animals and decomposed mat
ter until her suit is settled by the
courts Judge Worrill will hear the
petition in Dawson next Monday and
determine whether a restraining or
der shall be issued against the city.
MRS. Wnlte alleges In her suit that
the "vapors arising from the dump
ing ground and bOneyard are nause-
ating and smell to high heaven day
and night, making existence a bur-
den at times" "Buzzards," it is
said, "congregate about the filth and

At meeting of the council Mon

Arrangements have been made with
the Dawson Market and Grocery
Co. for dead carcasses to be tax

of their pasture, and the garbage
will be emptied into the canal that
carries off the sewage of the city. It
is thought that this action by the
council may stop the lawsuit.

MIAMI COPPER CO.
 ATEDEvELDPMENT
INDICATIONS THAT ORE BODY FIX TENDS 210o FEET FARTHER WEST ORE CARRIES LESS COP PER ON 570-FOOT LEVEL.

With depth the grade of ore at the property of the Miami company is ap parently decreasing. The ore struck on the 570-foot level from the Red Rock shaft is averaging 2la per cent copper, as against an average of better than 3 per cent in the upper levels. Ii is be- lieved that the bottom of the big lense of ore which has been developed from the 270-foot level to the 470.toot level will be reached between the 570 and 670 foot levels.
 The ore body of the Miami company is big copper Icnsc which was never expected to go to very great depth. While its thickness may be diseernible after 6,000000 tons have been put in sight by the present underground work ings, the length of the lense has not as yet been determined in any of the levels opened below 270 feet.
 The company is sinking another three compartment shaft (other than its big four-compartment working shafD sl50 feet to the west of the Red Rock shaft, and, at depth of 27o feet, it has gone through an oxidized material with ear bonate of copper through it, which would indicate near approach 10 the sulphides This new shaft is named the Red Spring shaft, and the striking of sulphide ores in this shaft 2l50 feet from the present Red Rock shaft would indicate an extension of the big Miami copper lense between the two shafts. This would add millions of tons of ore to the Miami reserves.
 It is the expectation of the manage, ment that this extension of the ore body will be found and in anticipation of this, options have been secured on ad- joining territory to the west which might possibly carry this ore body for still greater distanee,-Boston News Bureau.
