RENEWED ACTIVITY PLEDGED.
Commercial Club Plans More Aggres.
Siye Course.

The Oroville Commercial club at a
meeting last Thursday evening, took
definite steps to prepare for active
work throughout the balance of the
year. A special committee on finances
was appointed which is now working
on plan for placing the club on a
substantial financial basis. Support to
the American Legion in its plans for
the district convention and a celebra-
ton here on July and was pledged.
land the club voted to sustain Oroville's
share Of the cost of carrying on for
four months longer the effective adver-
tising campaign initiated by Tonasket
in behalf of the district. This campaign
will be continued through the columns
OF the Wenatchee Daily World. Results
already obtained more than justified
the expenditure, it was agreed. The
cost of continuing this work is to be
born by Oroville, Tonasket and the
West Okanogan Valley Irrigation dis
trict. Display advertisements will be
carried In the World at least twice a
week throughout the summer and
these will be supplemented with illus
trated articles in that paper.
II. M. Sturges, representing the Near
East Relief, addressed the club, and
following his appeal sixty dollars was
voted to the Relief fund.

SPLENDID PROGRAM AT LIBERTY

The screen play and the musical
program at the Liberty theater We'd
nesday and Thursday of this week
were OF such exceptionally fino quail
ity that they deserve special commen-
dation. Rarely have the patrons Of the
theater enjoyed entertainment of so
high an order.
The musical program alone would
ordinarily be considered sufficient for
complete program, and the picture
Come on Over" proved to be one of
the most delightful and artistic pro-
iuctions that has ever been shown
lere. 1t was an inimitable mixture of
humor and pathos, smiles and tears
with every character perfectly por-
trayed.
The musical numbers consisted of
songs by Mrs. Beverly Powell, violin
solos by Miss Edna Schassberger and
piano selections by Mrs. Ethel Velma
Turpin. Each number was a treat in
itself.
Mrs. Powell has a voice remark
able for strength and musical quality
and her singing at these performances
show the excellent progress she has
made as result of study the past
winter in Spokane. Little Edna
SchassberCer is a gifted musician and
can well be designated as a youthful
prodigy. Mrs. Turpin captivated the
audience by her performance on the
piano. Unknown to Oroville as a mu-
sician, She revealed herself as an
exceptional artist with the power to
delight and charm her hearers.

Otis Teal was over from Loomis
Sunday and he was highly elated over
the success Of the Stmpede held at
Loomis last week, both with the large
attendance and the entertainment the
Loomisites furnished the visitors. Mr..
Teel was one Of the managers of the
two-days' celebration and promised
that the string Of buckers and buck
eroos would be in Oroville on July 4th
at the American Legion convention,
and give the public the best exhibit
they know how to put up.
Monday morning the Princeton train
was held up at AshnOla creek owing
to the washout Of two bents of a
bridge and had to back track to Oro-
vile. This was not all the trouble the
train crew encountered, for on the
outgoing trip the scrap heap that
does service as locomotive broke a
connecting rod between Nighthawk
and Chopaka and the old relic went
on and came back ON one lung, which
meant painfully slow and uncertain
travelling.

M0LSON GRAIN
RATES LOWERED
Department OF Public Works, Olympia,
Enters Order Reducing Charge
Three Cents to Puget Sound.

reduction in grain rates Of three
cents from Nelson to Puget Sound
points was ordered bp the department
of public works at Olympia Saturday.
Proportionate reductions are to be ef-
fective on grain rates along the entire
line OF the oville-Wenatchee branch
of the Great Northern. This action of
the department of public works is the
result Of complaint filed by the Mol
son Community Club and the North
Pacific Miller's Association. The ex-
isting rate from. Nelson Is 80 cents
and the new order reduces this charge
to 27 cents.
Report of the reasons for the order
made in the Wenatchee Daily World
says:
1t was the contention of the Great
Northern railway at the hearing that
the Oroville branch is expensive to
operate and money is being lost on
the present rates. Evidence indicated,
the departments order said, that the
acreage in this section devoted to the
raising Of grain is decreasing and
...SpD- u.
elements. 1t was also pointed out taht
approximately 1000 acres of orchard
are coming into bearing and prospects
for the future Of the Oroville branch
are encouraging. The present relation
ship between Spokane and Puget
Sound points on shipments from Mol
son will be maintained under the new
rates, the department held, which will
result in a reduction in the Molson to
Spokane charge"

and consists of exhibitions familiar to
the old west but rapidly becoming a

have caused so much friction in Mol

PICTURESQUE PIONEER DEPARTS
A. ]. Long and Family Leave LOOmis
for New Home In Southwest,

According to our LoOmis cores
pondent, MIR. and Mrs. A. J. Long have
shaken the dust of the old camp off
their feet and departed by auto for
California and will probably go on
into Arizona or New Mexico, and even
possibly into old Mexico. Jack Long
is one of the oldest and most widely
known pioneers of the north part of
Okanogan county and his departure
will be regretted by all who enjoy
the pleasure Of his acquaintance. For
years he was engaged in the cattle
business in partnership with James
Kinchelo, an industry that he had
grown up in from boyhoOd. When a
very young man he was employed as
a COW puncher on cattle ranch
owned by the grandfather of Mrs
Frank M. Dallam, Jr., in eastern Ore
gon, and from Oregon he moved to
Okanogan county in the days when
almost the entire county. was q cattle
range and the succulent bunch grass
provided feed in abundance that made
for the best beef cattle in the West.
Jack Long has been a picturesque
figure in this upper country as a
typical specimen Of the fast disap-
pearing western cowboy. Tall, slim,
sinewy, with movement as agile as
a cat, an acquline nose, long droop-
ing white mustache and a strikingly
handsome profile, he is the beau ideal
of the movie cattle man, but far more
striking I'M personal appearance than
any cowboy ever depicted upon the
screen. In modern garb he would
attract attention anywhere, and in
chaps and sombrero he would create
a sensation on the streets Of any city
in the land. II Mr.. Long should
elect to go into the movies after
reaching California he would make
his fortune and drive such dubs as
Bill Hart, Tom Mix, Harry Carey and
others who pose as cowboys to the
brush.
But Mr.. Longs reputation as a
citizen does not rest upon his person
al appearance. He goes out of Okla
hogan without leaving an enemy be-
hind. Genial and kindly in his re-
lation with his neighbors, generous
to fault, honest and honorable in
all his dealings he deserves, the re-
spect and confidence he has won
among all with whom he has come in
contact.

BROTHERS LOSE LIVES IN LAKE
Two Young Sons OF Forest Supervisor
Drown Near COncOnully.

! Two Young Sons of Forest Supervisor
Drown Near COncOnully.
The shocking news of the drowning
OF two young sons of Mr.. and Mrs. P.
T. Harris of Okanogan, U. s. forest
supervisor, in Conconully lake Sun
day morning was received here Sun
| day afternoon. At the same time
word came of the drowning of young
man in Palmer lake, and the triple
tragedy threw gloom over the COM
munity. The first reports received
were very much exaggerated, as it
was said that three men had lost their
lives in Palmer lake and that Mr..
Harris had met death in Conconully
lake with his children. The facts as
they were are deplorable enough The
following account Of the drowning Of
the Harris children, the. only two
children in the family and leaving the
parents inconsolable in their loss, Is
taken from the Okanogan lndepend-
ent:
The bodies OF Sam and Austin
Harris, sons Of Mr.. and Mrs. P. T.
Harris of Okanogan, were buried
privately at Okanogan Monday morn
ing. The two boys lost their lives
while bathing in Conconully lake
Sunday about noon. Sam was nearly
eight years old; Austin nearly nine.
More than three hours work over
the two boys by DR.. Paul l.. West OF
Okanogan. and DR.. Fryer Of River
side proved unavailing. 1t is not
known how long they were in the
water. The physicians were OF the
opinion that the shock the two boys
. received contributed to hasty death.
shortly before noon Sunday the
two boys went wading in the shall
lows of the lake about 100 yards
from the Pierpont home. They, with
their mother, were camping in the
vicinity. The boys were enjoined to
remain within a shallow place sepa-
rated from the deeper water by a
fence. Sam, however. crept through
the fence. and began wading out into
the lake toward half sunken log.

of Mr.. and Mrs. II. b. Pierpont, ran
to the house and gave the alarm
Mrs. Harris hurried to the point IN
the lake where the boys had disap-
peared. but was unable to locate
them. ran back to the house and teie-
phoned Conconully, where the serV-
ices of Fred Tindall and Johnny
Marshall were quickly secured. TN
dali and Marshall, after several at
tempts, brought up the boys.
Helping hands were lent by many
men and women of Conconully, the
work of resuscitation being kept UP
steadily until after three o'clock.

OLD PROPERTY
TO BE RE0PENED
Los Angeles Mining Man Plans t,
Develop POlan China Near Che.
saw ON Extensive Scale.

w. A. Marvin, Of Los Angeles, a con-
sulting engineer. who with associates
Is resuscitating the old Poland China
mine, located near Chesaw, under the
new name of the Mary Ann Creek
Mining company, was in town
over Monday night on his way to his
home. where arrangements will be
perfected for carrying on operating
work on IA large scale this summer
Mr.. Marvin is an experienced mining
man and practical geologist, and has
operated largely in Colorado with
more or less active experience in other
mining sections Of the west. He Is not
one of those mining men who permit
his imagination to run away with him
by claiming exaggerated values in the
ores of the property which he is hand
ling. Indeed he is so modest in his
figures, and so confident that he can
make the mine pay at the modest
values he claims to be in the ores,
that one who has lived here long and
is familiar with the insistant claims
of mine owners that their ores carr!
values running into the hundreds
feels dazed at the claim made by
Mr.. Marvin that he can handle, mill,
and make a profit out of the Poland
China ores that according to his state
ment carries an average value of only
$500.
Mr.. Marvin says that the ores that
he expects to extract are so easily
worked that he can break it down in
large quantities at minimum cost.
The old mill is to be repaired, new
machinery added, an oil flotation plant
installed and compressor and air
drills put in. Gasoline engines will be
used in the event that arrangements
cannot be made with the Okanogan
Valley Power company to extend
line from Oroville to Nelson, an ex-
tension that has been in contempla-
ton by the company for some time. II
the Nelson line is put in the Mary
Ann Creek Mining company will con-
struct an extension at its own expense
from Nelson to Chesaw and then con-
tract to take 120 horse power Of en-
ergy.
Mr.. Marvin states that the company
has sufficient ore in sight to operate
the mill it has in contemplation for a
year. The profits from the ore extract
ed will be used to drive a tunnel in
some 500 feet to tap the ledge at
depth of 500 feet, and he feels that the
ore so uncovered will keep the mill
going indefinitely. Mr.. Marvin expects
to return north in about 80 days and
at once inaugurate an active cam
paign at the mine.
