production as they were explained
sounded strange and unnatural to
those living in a northern cline under
altogether different conditions and
surroundings, yet in all probability the
description was no stranger to the men
and women of the north than a de-
scription of this north land, its inhabi-
tants and their ways of life would be
to the indolent, care-free residents of
the tropics. After the lecture the au-
dience spent some time looking over
the collection Mr.. st. Hill had on ex-
hibition. The soil was specimens of
the volcanic ash that Mr.. st. Hill
gathered up after an eruption of
a volcano on neighboring island, a
description of the day being turned in =
to night during the fall of the dust
being part of the address. The soil
is very fine, powdery ash, very much
in the nature of tailings that can be
seen at any of the stamp mills that
have been operated in this country
The specimens of small sharks, the
pearl and maneater, flying fish, cof-
fin fish, the sea weed and shells, arm
adellO, the strange lace and rope
wood, the crude tools and utensils
were one and all curiosities we'll
worth seeing and examining.

GOES TO THE WEST SIDE

When government employees are
changed from one post to another the
authorities as a rule take quick ac-
ton. AS an illustration of how GUS
tom officer is expected to seize his
grip and go where he is sent M. C.
Jackman received orders last Friday
to change his headquarters to Sumas,
Wash, on the west side of the noun
tains, and enter upon his duties at
once at that place. Instructions with
the orders was to get a move by the
Mr.. Jackman has acted as deputy GUS
toms inspector at Oroville during the
past three years, and during his stay
he has made friends with all with
whom he has come in contact. More
over since coming here he has in
creased his responsibilities by the ac-
emulation of a wife and child. He is
a very efficient and capable officer.
and is always at his post He has
never been Extensively officious, as is
too often the case, in the performance
of his duties, and yet he has performed
those duties faithfully and strictly. In
deed, the department appreciates the
record he has made, as the change is
in the nature of promotion, as Sumas
is much larger place than Oroville,
with some "a trains arriving and de-
parting daily, which will increase Mr..
Jackman's responsibilities and labor.
The residents of this community will
sincerely regret the departure of Mr..
and Mrs. Jackman. May they find
their new home a pleasant one, and
may they return to Oroville to remain
permanently is the wish of the Ga
zette force.

GONE no ST. PAUL

In response to the telegram sent tC
Louis w. Hill OF the Great Northern
railroad, by the directors of the East
and West Okanegan Valley Irrigation
districts, asking if it would be con-
venient for him to meet delegation
representing property owners under
the proposed system in conference re-
garding the details relative to bond
issue, dispatch was received Thurs
day last stating that Mr.. Hill would be
pleased to confer with the delegation
ii the meeting could be held on or be-
fore the 10th of June at st. Paul. 1t
had previously been arranged that a
to st. Paul and interview Mr.. Hill
At meeting OF the directors of the
two districts Thursday last it was de-
cided that committee of three would
be sufficient to transact the business
and Samuel Blackler and H. H. Grang-
er, presidents of the two boards of di-
rectors, and Ernest Riste, secretary
of the West Okanogan Valley Irriga-
ton district, were selected as such
committee. AS the time for holding
the conference was so near at hand
the committee had to leave Saturday,
expecting to reach st. Paul by Mon
day night. 1t is expected that the del
egation will bc@a5le to finish their
business with Mr.. Hill in time to
reach home next Monday. Advices
from the committee as to the result
OF the conference may be received by
wire by the time this paper goes to
press. The representatives of the
property holders 60 with full power
to close any contract that seems to
them fair, just and equitable to the
land owners, and it is expected that
they will make any reasonable con-
cession that will result in carrying
out the object in view, the construc-
tion of the system at the earliest pos
sible date. The feeling prevails that
an amicable understanding will be
reached, in which case work on the
project will commence this summer
and be completed in time to turn on
water next season,

A CASE OF BURGLARY
The Local Drug Store is Entered and
Small Amount Stolen

The local drug store seems to be an
easy mark for that class of gentry
who live by despoiling others, although
the living they gain by the acts of
despoliation is not above coffee and
sinker diet. For those who descend
upon the house of drugs are gentle
il their touch, and the proprietor will
be able to survive the nocturnal trib-
ute, if the tributes do not come too
often. From the meagreness of the
losses it is evident that some local
light fingured artist is on the job.
The harvest reaped would hardly re-
pay any one for coming a long dist
ance to pull the touch. Some months

ago entrance was made into the build
ing by cutting out panel of the back
door, and the entrance was made by
the same door Sunday night, only
this time a pane of glass was broken
in order to reach the convenient bolt
on the door. Sunday morning Harry
Gleason, the young gentleman who
presides over the prescription depart
ment, was very much surprised on en-
tering the store to find the sliding
doors of about all of the display cases
open, some of the goods on the count
ers, others tossed topsy turvy, and
an empty one pound fancy candy box
empty on the prescription counter
evidence that the marauder has a
sweet tooth. Further investigation
revealed the absence of $5 in cash
that had been left in the money draw
er. The safe was undisturbed, but the
drawers of Mr.. Samson's desk were
pulled out and the contents scattered
about the desk. A glass bowel at the
soda fountain, containing several dol
lars in change, was undisturbed, which
will be humiliating to the thief when
he reads this as bet he overlooked.
So far as can be ascertained the only
thing taken was the money and candy.
From all appearances the thief leis-
urely paved over the contents of the
various cases and took his time at
ransacking the premises. No clue was
left, and there is no one upon whom
suspicion rests. If the housebreaker
is resident of the town it would be
just as well for those who have any
thing to lose to exercise a little pre-
caution in guarding their possessions.

PLEASANT GATHERING
The Members of the Farmers Union
Hold an Interesting Session

Saturday the members of the Farm
ers' Union, that embraces residents of
Oroville as well as large number of
the farmers in this immediate vicinity
held one of the most enjoyable social
meetings, in Odd Fellows, hall, that has
ever aiken place under the auspices
of the local organization The object
was altogether social, and people out
side of the association were invited to
be present 1t was an open meeting
where non-members were made wei
come. The program, which was great
ly enjoyed by all present, was as fol-
lows:
Music by a four-piece orchestra.
Recitation by Miss Adel Hart.
Duet by Mrs. B. j. Cutler and Mrs.
N. c. Faulkner.
Recitation by Mrs. Comrads.
Orchestra selection.
Recitation by Miss Gladys Smith.
Claronet solo by Prof. Simmons.
Dinner was then served by the
ladies, and this was feature that ap-
pealed strongly to all who were SO
fortunate as to be among the partak-
ers, for in quantity and quality il
could not have been improved on.
After dinner an address was deliver
ed by c. j. ST. Hill on the West Indies
to a small but interesting and ap.
preciative audience. Mr.. st. Hill was
born in the island of Barbados, and
lived among the islands and in South
America until he was % years of age
| His address was more in the nature
of narrative of this life in the fal
southern cline than a connected dis
course on a given subject, and was
probably all the more entertaining
for that reason. 1t was descriptive
of the natives, their ways of living
the climatic conditions, the methods
of fertilizing, the process of sugar
cane growing and sugar making. Mr.
st. Hill is an easy and very interest
ling talker, and gave his audience {
fund of information upon a country
and people little known to residents O.
the north. The mode of life and Gus
toms of the people, the enervating eli
mate, the methods of cultivation ant

FREIGHT AND PASSENGER
A Mixed Train to BE Put on the Orc.
ville- -Wenatchee Run

There has been some difficulty eX-
perienced in securing information as
to the service the Great Northern was
to inaugurate when the Oroville-We-
natchee branch was opened to traffic
after The 1st of July. The Wenatchee
World has at last been able to secure
definate information that is given out
in the article published below, TAX
en- from that paper of June 8. A mix
ed train service may not be what the
public expected, still that will pro
vide means of travel that will be a
vast improvement over what this up
per country has had to put up with
for years, and may be only a tempor-
ary arrangement. If business to just
ify develops after the Inauguration of
train service regular passenger train
will be speedily put on the run, for
the railroad is in the carrying busi-
ness. There will be satisfaction
enough in having even daily mixed
trains between Oroville and Wenat-
chez, and considering the nature of
the country the runs through, and
the extent of the trains, without
doubt the Oroville- -Wenatchee branch
will become one of the important
feeders of the Great Northern system.
In connection with the arranged SCH
edule the World says:
Agent A. A. Piper of the Great
Northern today received notice of the
schedule between Wenatchee and Oro-
vile. According to the present plans
trains will leave both Wenatchee and
Oroville each morning at seven or
eight o'clock arriving in both places
in the evening. Mixed trains will be
used at the start. 1t is understood
that passenger trains will be put on
just as soon as the traffic justifies
Accordingly this train service is only
in the nature of an experiment
"It is understood in railroad cir
cles that the Great Northern is hesi-
tiating about putting on an exclusive
passenger service for fear that the
traffic may not justify them to do so
and if it did not they would be embar-
rassed in reverting to mixed SER
vice.
Those who are in touch with the
possibilities of the country now to be
opened up believe that an exclusive
passenger service will be necessary
to take care of the traffic very soon
after regular operation begins. Sew
eral hundred cars of fruit alone will
have to roll during the fall season.
This year this will mean an average
of half freight train in fruit for
several months. Then the stock ship
ments, lumber products, and thous-
ands of other commodities will un-
doubtedly make up a tremendous
amount of traffic within a reasonably
short time.
THE present schedule from Oro-
vile to Pateros is about four hours.
The distance is 65 miles. The distance
from Wenatchee to Pateros is 56
miles. Accordingly with a mixed train
ii is evident that the time required be-
tween Wenatchee and Oroville will
be seven and eight hiurs."

BULLS ARE HOPEFVu.

The Chicago Herald says: Wheat
bulls are more hopeful Of better mar
kets. The decrease in receipts of
wheat and oats give them more cour-
age. They say it is only a question
OF time that the market will turn in
a way that will make one of the best
bull markets seen this season. In
corn it is a debatable proposition, as
most of the trade see it. Cash ham
