PEOPLE REJOICE
FOR TROY BRIDGE
Is BOON TO ALL RESIDENTS OF
GROUSE AND GARDEN OF
EDEN COUNTRIES.

Grouse, Sept. 6.-The people of the
Grouse country on both sides of the
state line between the Grande Ronde
river and the Blue Noun tains are
wonderfully pleased over the compile
ton of the new steel bridge at Troy.
They say many congratulations are
due the county commissioners for
the interest they have taken i'm the
welfare of our people, and a num-
Der of them met the honorable
county court ct Troy Saturday and
served nice picnic dinner which
was enjoyed by all present.
The foreman of the party putting
up the bridge is spoken of in the
highest terms of respect. The
bridge crew of nine men have made
many friends here and are highly
esteemed as gentlemen. We are
sorry that two of the party were tax
en- sick at the close of the work.
The crew We're all served fine
dinner at Grouse Sunday while en-
route to lewiston.
The grist mill at Troy is nearing
completion, and D. A. Silver has y
new dwelling house we'll ON the way.
Troy Is natural center from all
points west and north of the river
and will in the near future be a
place of note. At present the pub
lie roads are not in a condition to
warrant rapid improvement. Like
in all other new countries the first
roads opened up ere made for the
quickest and cheapest route regard
less of the steepness and other in
conveniences.
The citizens of the Grouse coun-
try don't want to ask any more IA
vors of the county court than are
absolutely necessary, but under the
circumstances we can't we'll avoid
asking a new road to be laid out
from Troy to the top of the hill
near E. Rlchtnaa's, as the present
road is not safe for public travel.
If road can be established the
most of the work should be done
by subscription. The people are
much more interested than ever be-
fore as the bridge Is open for trav-
ell and the Troy mill will be in OPP
GRAFTON soon which will more than
double the travel.

Mrs. Chiffon, perhaps the most gift
ed reader in the Southern States, will
appear at the Armory on the night of
June 3rd, the fifth attraction in the Ly-
ceum course. She needs no introduce
ton to Marietta audience. She was
here at the Chautauqua last summer
and drew the largest audience of any
attraction of the entire week. She is a
Southern woman and thoroughly un-
derstands the characteristics of the
Southern people, and knows how to
please them. Those who have heard
her do not hesitate to say that she is
by far the most attractive feature of the
entire Lyceum course, and it is believ-
ed that the largest house that has wit
messed any performance since the Ly-
ceum course began, will greet her
when she appears.
