TO HANDLE REAL ESTATE.

Dir. Guy Fruit, of Loomis, arrived in
Oroville Wednesday, and brings his
blankets to stay. He has formed a
partnership in the real estate business
with his brother, Price, and the firm
will be located in the new building
about completed, opposite the Peerless
hotel. The Fruit brothers are among
the oldest residents of the north part
of the county, and are thoroughly fa-
miliar with every locality where land
can be taken up, or is under improve
ment. They will handle fruit and farm
lands, as well as town property, and
their knowledge of conditions and sur
roundngs especially qualities them for
giving their patrons satisfaction. Both
members of the firm are wide awake
pushers, and those who transact busi-
ness with them are assured of square
treatment and honest representation.

PREPARING TO WORK THE TRIUNE

{. NJ Strowbridge, who is the super
intendent in charge of the Trune
mine at Golden, was in town Tuesday
for supplies. \ line of poles is now
up from the mine to the Similkameen
Falls power plant, and the wire will
be strung 50 soon as the snow is re-
duced sufficiently to work over the
mountain ridge between the mine and
the power plant, The company has a
large quantity of material en- route
from the east, but the consignment
has been side tracked somewhere and
cannot he located. When the plans of
operation that have been formulated
are e. "ried out the Triune will be ope.
rated by electric power, and that swell
proposition that turned out much bar
gold in years past will again be pound
iug out the yellow metal. This will
be advantages to Oroville as the mine
Is only a few miles west Of the town,
and all business connected with the
mine is done at this point.

A NEW infant INDUSTRY
A Concrete Plant Soon to
Be in Operation in
This Place.
ENCOURAGE THE ENTERPRISE
A Popular Building Material that
is Destined to Enter Largely
Into Futurc Improvements.

Carl Hamilton, Jacob Kast and David
Ionic have completed arrangements
for installing concrete plant at Oro
vile. The necessary machiney has
been ordered, and as soon as suitable
location can be secured and building
erected the trio will begin the manu-
facture of concrete building blocks,
brick, tiling, and such other articles
of utility that concrete can be fashion
ed into. Several parties about town
have expressed an intention to erect con-
crete buildings this summer and when
the fashion is fairly started others will
fall in, and that cheap, convenient and
durable material Will enter largely into
improvements TO be made in the future
Two members of the company enga ged
in the project are experienced me-
chanics and builders, and hence will
turn out superior quality of material
in shape to be used to the best ad-
vantage. Concrete is rapidly growing
in favor as a substitute for lumber,
blick and stone, and in few years it
will become the principal material
used in private and public construction.
1t is more economical than brick or
stone, and in time will be produced at
less cost than lumber. Besides the
accommodation OF cheapness expert
ment and experience have demonstrate
ed that concrete makes the most dur
able and comfortable building in com
paris on with anv other constructive
material III use. The addition OF a
concrete plant to the active industies
OF Oroville is matter of general con
graduation, and it is to be hoped that
the promoters of the movement may
realize full measure of success from.
the enterprise they are displaying.

IN ON A GOOD THING.

Geo. Loudon, jr., who is at the head
of a tlourishing mercantile establish
ment at Keremeos, B. c., passed thro'
Oroville Saturday on brief visit to
Spokane. Mr.. Loudon is young man
who is keenly looking forward to a
competency early in life, as he is not
contented with the natural accretion
that comes with prosperous line of
trade, but has his eyes open for such
investments as look good for substan-
tial returns. In this laudable pursuit
for substantial returns he secured an
interest in the Carbon Hill Coal and
Coke company, that holds an extensive
territory rich in high grade of COAL
located in the Fernie district, region
from which the chief coal supply for a
vast scope of country is drawn. The
writer has had some opportunity to
look into this proposition, and while
not an authority on coal feels confident
that Mr.. Loudon has made an invest
ment that will speedily pry his bank
account into prominence.

ture. If the financial condition of the
city eXchequer is such as to warrant
the expenditure and thanks to the
uniformity of an ideal townSite this eX-
pense should be comparatively light
those in authority should make an eff
fort to grade the principal streets and
cover them with coat of gravel 1t
would eliminate the water and mud
nuisance, and reduce in large meas
ule the circulation of real estate dur
ing the summer months. This item is
not written in spirit of criticism, but
as Offering advice that none can deny
as being good. Everybody is interest
ed in the material advancement of the
city, which has exceptionally bright
prospects, and there is hardly any eX-
penditure that could be made that
would add more to the attractiveness
of Oroville than providing neat, solid
and well cared for streets.

en- Sands is a placer property along
the Similkameen river, only three
miles above Oroville. The claims were
located by the late VIM. r. Peterson
and Milwaukee people became inter-
ested in them. 1t is claimed by the
engineer who carefully examined and
tested the ground last fall that the
dirt will yield $4.75 to the cubic yard.
This is remarkable showing for or
dinary placer ground, for dirt yielding
one fourth that sum would leave a
substantial margin to the operators.
If there is any extent of pay dirt hold
ing up to the figures claimed, and it is
properly handled, the property could
be made to yield profit that would
compare favorably with the output of
the old Rich Bar diggings, located
above the Similkameen falls, which
created a stampede over so years ago
1t is the intention of the company to
put in an electric pump and hydraulic
the ground, at least it is so reported
and no doubt correctly, as it is the
cheapest and most effective system that
can be used for working placer ground
on large scale.

STUTBY COMPANY COMING.

Arrangements are being made with
the Stutby Big Theatre company for
their appearance in Oroville while en-
route to the coast cities. The Study
company does not usually play the
smaller towns, As it is composed of II
people, and the expense attached to
handling a travelling company of that
size hardly justilies playing any but
the large cities. The company is high
ly recommended, and no play put on
the stage by the Stutby people will
offend the NEST eXacting or refined.
The agent for the company will arrive
in few days and complete arrange
ments for the appearance of the troupe,
and fuller particulars will be given at
later date.

Basket Ball at Riverside.

The high school basket ball team,
with few rooters, drove down to Riv-
erside and tried conclusions with the
team at that place Saturday. Owing
to the limited space in the hall, which
prevented the springing of the team
work that our home boys had framed
up, which was confidently expected
would wipe their rivals off the earth,
and other causes that shall not be emu
merated, the Riverside boys, with lit
tie regard to the courtesy due guests,

given under'th auspices of the Com

night. 1t proved to be the most large
ly ATTENDED and most enjoyable public
social event that has taken place in
that camp during the winter. The
Club protited handsomely 10y the effort,
and those present express themselves
as fully repaid by the quantity and
quality of pleasure in circulation. In
the award of prizes Mr.. Herbert Gregg
secured that awarded for the best sus-
tanned lady character, and Miss Millie
Richards for the best lady's costume.
Mr.. Burt Champneys captured the
prize for the best dressed gentleman,

Paid A Fine.

The trial of the young man before
Justice Fraser last week developed the
fact that the case against l1-year-old
Alva Hottie, of kipling was not as
serious as at first reported. The oli-
ginal charge was attempted rape on
the person of a school girl, but in,esti-
cation convinced the justice that this
charge could not be sustained in the
superior court, so he assessed fine
against the boy on a charge of simple
assault aid dismissed the case. Sev-
eral people from the kipling neigh
borhood were down as witnesses, among
them being the boy father, who paid
the fine at the conclu,io. Of the case.

Send the Paper East.

What local paper needs to be eff
fcient in its service to the community
it represents is large circulation, and
if the community is loyal to the paper
it will aid in securing that circulation.
There are few residents of Oroville
who cannot afford to subscribe for from
three to ten extra papers. having them
mailed to friends at IA distance. This
will be aiding to build up Oroville and
surrounding country by spreading
broad cast the bright prospects Of this
locality, at a small TAX upon the indi-
vidual residents, Try the scheme and
see the effects. This Office is open to
an experiment OF the kind.

Niqhthawk to Work.

The report reaches this office that
the Nighthawk mine and mill is soon
to start active work, and that Henry
d. James, of Milwaukee, the manager,
will probably spend the summer at the
mine, taking personal charge of the
work. The Nighthawk has a finely
equipped stamp mill, operated by cleo
trio power, and large ore bodies have
been opened up, by means of a main
working tunnel, that carry strong
values. Owing to the late financial
pinch the property has been idle for
some time, and a revival of operations
would put new life in the adjacent
village of Nighthawk. The mine is on
the railroad only some twelve miles
west of OroVille.
