heavy consumers OF Ice, the quantity
cut this winter was far short of what
has been harvested in past years. The
conditions were somewhat different
this year from what they were last
winter, when the supply Of frozen
moisture was so limited that ice cut
tiers found it difficult to secure suffi-
cient supply to meet the demand.
Mike Mahoney, who is an authority
on weather conditions in the valley, as
one of the oldest residents of Oroville,
says that in 1894, the record high wa
ter mark within the memory Of white
men, water from the Okanogan river
came up into the present town as far
as the rear of the old Peerless hotel,
while the south end of the town was
all awash. II this spring is going to be

Of snow in the mountains makes such
a flood possibility, those living on
the flat are liable to enjoy some of the
excitement of life on the ocean wave.
VIM. Barry was down off Palmer
mountain, doing business, Friday last.
He has not been able to get down off
the high lands often this winter be-
cause the snow has been so unusually
deep. He reports that farmers tele-
phone line, to connect up with the
ramification of farmers lines that is
putting much of the upper country in
close touch with towns and neighbor-
hoods, is to be constructed out of
LOOMS, up around Palmer lake, on up
the Similkameen to Copaka, and back
down that valley to Nighthawk. He
and possibly others will put in a stub
line off Palmer mountain, connecting
with the main line at Palmer lake.
This will be very great convenience
to the residents of very large section
Of country at present without any
means Of telephone communication.

Every One Was Satisfied.

A very angry client entered New
York lawyers Office. He had called
upon debtor and asked him politely
to pay a bill of $3.50 and had been
abused for his pains. Now he wanted
the lawyer to collect it
The lawyer demurred. The bill was
SO small that it would cost the whole
amount to collect it.
"No matter" said the angry one. u
don't care if l don't get cent as long
as that fellow has to pay it!'
So the lawyer wrote the debtor a
letter, and in a day or two the latter
appeared in high dudgeon. he did not
owe any $3.50, and he would not pay.
"Very WELL" said the lawyer; then
my instructions are to sue. But L
should hardly think it would pay you
to stand a suit for so small a sum-"
'tWho will get the money if pay
it?' asked the man.
The lawyer was obliged to confess
that he should.
''Very we'll" said the debtor; that's
another matter. If Smith isn't going
to get it 1 am perfectly willing to pay
it."-Youths Companion. 4

Even the Judge had risen.
Mary herself was standing swaying

CONFESSION

look oddly old and tired.
Langdon paced slowly up and down.
Over and over In his mind he went
back through the testimony Of the long
trial Of Mary Page He was confident
now, as he had not been confident in
the beginning, that she had not shot
James Pollock in frenzy Of delirious
fear.
But who HAD killed him?
That was the problem!
Never in all his experience had he re-
membered so batting case.
At least a half dozen times he had
felt that his fingers were at last upon
