has been recognized as one of the most
versatile performers on the entertain

his good humor seemed to bubble over
in whatever he did, whether playing a
difficult cornet solo, high class violin
concerto, the musical bells or doing
his own inimitable character mono

NEW HEAD.

Attention is called to the new head
on this paper. Probably this is hardly
necessary. as it is so striking and fetch
ing that it calls attention to itself
without any assisting voice. 1t is rep
resentative of the country in which
Oroville is situated. The water pow-
er, the railroads, the mines and the
broad rich acres of orchard lands are
deDicted, surmounted by the cornu-
copia of the fruits the fat aud fecund
soil produces. 1t is new head with
something in it.. Methinks the voices
of the boys down the line vociferate
that is what the paper needed, for
sharp at repertee and long on the mer-
ry josh are the pushcrs of the pencil.
Whether the new head improves the
contents of the paper there may be
doubts, but it certainly improves its
appearance. And there is nothing
strained nor exaggerated in the pic
torial title. 1t is all here as depicted
by the artist, only better than the
conception of the mind and the skill
of the artist could delineate. There
is some pointing with pride" at the
new head in this print shop or there
would not be so much said about it in
this item.

WARLIKE CROWD.

Last Friday night large gang of
Austrians, that had been employed on
the railroad west of here, stopped over
in town on their way east. The incli-
nation of good many of them ran to
rum, and from rum to riot For. a time
it looked as though this paper would
catch scare head item and the coron-
er job, for knives and guns hoped
into sight. just about the time things
looked favorable for supplying candi-
dates for the hospital and cemetery
Marshal Myers, who never falters when
duty requires him to tackle law-break
ers, sailed into the boistrous and blood
thursty crowd of foreigners and nailed
the chief trouble maker. This put an
end to the disturbance, and in the morn
ing the crowd faded away. In passing
it can be said on his behalf that Mr..
Myers has made the town an active
and fearless marshal, so far as per-
forming the duties of that Office is
concerned.

BONDED THE H|AWATHA
Eastern People Take Over a
Group of Claims West
of Orovi1le.
PRICE SAID TO Be 100000
Reported That the Purchasers Are
to Spend a Large Sum in
Development Work.

While there has been little move
ment up in this country for a long time
in the way of transfers of mining prop
erty, either through bonding or sales
outright, interest in that industry is
not entirely dead and once in awhile a
claim, or group of claims, changes
hands, or is taken on a bond, which
would indicate that mining investors
had not lost faith in the mineral fields
of the Okanogan.
1t is noticeable nowadays that it is
somewhat different from the way the
same thing was done in former times.
In the old days the investor generally
took the word of the prospector, or
claim owner, without making care
full investigation, not infrequently get
ting pig in poke, and failure was
the natural result. Now, before in
vestors take hold, mining expert is
sent in to inspect and report, and the
property must come up to crucial test
VI blcTc ID uOUIllIlS uOluS.
The latest deal in mining property
reported was pulled off by Dell Hart,
who has bonded to eastern parties the
Hiawatha group, the consideration be-
ing 100000, a snug little sum, both
to pay out and take in. The Hiawatha
group is located just west of the old
mining camp of Golden, and has for
neighbors such well known and merit
orious properties as the Trlune, Kim
berley and Spokane. Mr.. Hart has
held the claims for number of years,
and during that time has done great
deal of development work, opening up
some strong ledges carrying high
grade gold values. The ledge that has
been opened up on the Golden Neck
lace can be traced for 1000 or 5000
feet on the surface, and it is the pres
ence of that cropping and what has
been exposed thereon in the way OF
mineral that made the sale. All the
preliminaries have not. as yet been
closed, but it is expected that the
company taking the bond will come to
final agreement in few days. 1t is
the intention of those holding the op-
tion to start in at once doing extensive
exploitation, and if the experts are not
in error of judgment, it will require
the expenditure of only compare
lively small sum to make paying
mine.

GOOD my ESNI ENT.

w. j. Frank and son Reevie have so
much faith in the future of the town
that they have put more money in
business property, and proposes fol-
lowing up the investment with exten-
sive improvements. Saturday they
purchased the two lots on Main street,
adjoining the Wickersham place on
the north, which, by-the-way, are two
of the choicest vacent inside business
lots on that thoroughfare. They we. e
owned by Fred B. Grinnell, of Spo-
kane, and the price paid was $l5O0
1t is the intention of the new owners
in the spring to put up two story
building on the lots, the ground floor
will be two large store rooms, and a
well arranged hall on the second floor.
This evidence of movement in the
building line early the spring is mat
ter of general congratulation, and in
dicates that there will be a greater
amount of construction in Oroville dur
ing 10ll than for several years past.

KNOWS A MINE.

Herbert Curtis drove over to town
from Loomis Sunday to meet and con-
fer with experts representing mining
men desiring to secure a property in
which that young man is interested.
The fact is Mr.. Curtis knows as much
about the value of mining claim as
any expert, discovery he has only
recently made, and in the future he
will devote his attention pretty largely
to securing meritorious properties and
promoting them. One thing the in
vestor can depend upon when doing
business with Mr.. Curtis, and that is
he is absolutely reliable. What he
says relative to mining claim can be
depended upon as being true, and will
every time be verified by inspection.
And that cannot be said for every ex-
pert in the business.
