Jas. f. Forde, Geo. II. Ellis left for
his home at Wenatchee Tuesday. Mr..
Forde will probably remain here for a
short time arranging for the settle
ment of the old accounts. Those who
have known the two gentlemen for so
long time express regret that they
have severed their business relations
with the camp.
Mrs. Geo. Ii. Ellis, jr., spent several
days in Loomis last week, the guest of
Mrs. Jas. E. Forde.

Arthur Lund was up from Riverside
the latter part of the week looking
after his banking interests.
Quite number of men have been
put to work on the claims controlled
by G. IL. Brooks. Operations are in
charge of Fred Retzer.
Mr.. and Mrs. H. L. Coe entertained
large number of guests at their
charming home on the hill Saturday
evening Progressive. whist was the
pastime, and the occasion was but a
repetition of the private social gath
erings that have been the brightest
spots in the lives of the residents of
LOOMS. The old coterie in the camp
have entertaining to a science, where
the warm hand of hospitality extends
a hearty welcome, and the guest is
made to feel the house is his or hers.
Fred Schramm, who left here
nearly two months ago, is now located
at Oakland.
II. r. McKibbon, by far and away
the most thorough electrician that was
ever employed in Loomis, where many
crack manipulators of the juice have
had jobs, is back in Seattle after spend
ing many months in Alaska putting in
electric power and wiring big min
ing plant. -
Ike Lee, one of the early settlers of
LOOMS, who has been away from the
camp for number of years, has re-
turned to and located again in San
Francisco, where he has charge of
1.-The Aston" rooming house at 129A
O'Farrell street, after trying the sim
pie life at Kalamath Falls, Oregon.
He still has corner in his heart for
old Loomis friends.
After a couple of weeks assisting in
cleaning up the Washington CONNER
cial company's branch store, Geo. II.
Ellis left Monday for Wenatchee.
The dry goods and boots and shoes
OF the Washington Commercial COM
pany. which the successors of the com
pany did not take over, have been
boxed up and shipped to Oroville.
The fact that the proposed electric
railway has recently been fling right
of-way contracts with the county audi
tor is again arousing hope that that
road will be started at an early date
and built through Loomis.
Mrs. Emma Umbarger, who is hav-
ing a pretty and coy cottage built on
the land she recently purchased on
Palmer lake, was in town this week
arranging to plant out five acres to
fruit trees.

iron Used in Earliest Times.

How long has the human race had
iron? 1t is impossible to be precise
in the matter. All that we know is
that iron has been known to men for
a very long time. In the time of
the Assyrians it was extensively used,
iron saws, knives and other tools hav.
ing been found by Layard at Nineveh.
Homer refers to the forging of iron,
while the hardening and tempering
of steel appear to have been opera
tons in common use among the early
Greeks The employment of kind
of bellows for the forging of tools,
presumably of iron, figures in Egyp.
tan sculpture of 1900 b. c. Cast iron
appears to have been discovered about
$50 b. G. Through the agency of
the Romans the manufacture of iron
was introduced all over the then
known world and into those regions
where 1t had not been previously
known.

FELT PREPARATION WAS DUE
lmpulslve But Repentant Cowboy
Would Respect Last Wishes OF
the Deceased.

A young Bostonian went to Texas
and turned cowboy. He rapidly
caught the spirit of the country and
as rapidly shook of the outward SEM
blance of tenderfooted eastern habit.
Rough bearded, leather-clad, sombrero
as wide as the widest, 42-caliber Colts
on his hips, he was as wild as the
widest. Yet within his bosom still
burned the flame of Boston culture
and refinement. One day he was rid
ing with stranger across the prairie.
Turning his head suddenly Che was
slightly ahead) he saw his companion
make a suspicious motion toward his
hip-pocket Without hesitation he
drew his revolver and shot him. The
stranger dropped like log. The cow
boy disnounted and looked at the
body of his victim. II wonder II he
was really going to shoot me-" he
soiiloquized; "I'll see" Turning the
body over, he discovered flask OF
whisky protruding from the pocket.
Poor fellow" he said, in tone OF
regret; I've made mistake. I've
killed an innocent man and gentle
man at that. He wasn't going to shoot
me; he was going to invite me to
have a drink. Well" he sighed. draw
ing his sleeve across his mouth. 1.-The
last wishes of the deceased shall be
respected"

Care of Food In Summer.

In some states the law requires
dealers in foods eaten without peeling
or cooking to keep them under glass
covers. The same care should be ia
ken to keep the covers on the sugar
bowls and over the jelly glasses and
all kinds of home prepared food Chill
dren and even adults are prone to for
get and leave the covers off, especial
ly in the country. Each dish should
have a fitted cover and whenever this
becomes broken or defective as dust
and insect excluder it should be dis.
carded. When cooling any dessert or
other dish which is to be eaten cold, a
clean meal sieve turned over it and a
couple of thicknesses of cheesecloth
put over that makes a very service
able dust and insect protector.-The
Housekeeper.

Diocese Defined.

When Rev. Ethelbert Talbot, bishop
of central Pennsylvania, was in Lon
don not long ago his fame as the
cowboy bishop" brought thousands
of young boys and girls to hear him
speak wherever he went. In one of
his talks to the youngsters, he held
them spellbound by telling them of
his diocese in Wyoming, which was
more thickly populated in the old days
with bears and Indians than with
Christians.
When he had finished with his de-
scription he asked the English chill
dren If any one knew what diocese
was. One of them promptly raised
his hand.
What is 1t, my lad?"
"A diocese, my lord, is a body Of
land with a bishop on top and the
clergy underneath was the answer.
