for the company. There were two Chi

clinging to it. The body has not yet

Yisitous. We noticed the pleasant
faces of Messrs Leeds and Mcrritt of
the "Ashland Tidings" at the pic-nic
grounds on May day. The young gen
tlemon averred that they came for a
day's relief from labor, but we observed
them taking notes of the spring styles,
and it is hard to tell what may come of
it The young ladies of Ashland must
be wide awake if they expect to win.

Musical. The third term of Sir.
Theodore Kugler's instruction in mu
sic ended on the 3d inst., and the fourth
term will commence on Monday
next It is hardly necessary to say
that Mr. Kugler is a very accomplished
teacher and that his instruction has
done much to elevate the style of mu
sic here, and that the opportunity of
his tuition should not be neglected.
Bids Forwarded. Postmaster Mul
ler having advertised for bids for car
rying the mail between Jacksonville
and Wright's, on Upper Applegate,
nine proposals were deposited with

to be the largest and most successful

in Yreka.

Affairs on the mail route between

disgraceful. It is barely possible that

vent any interference with that tribe.

The two counterfeiters, Hiijks and
Baker, were arrested in this county
in 1877 and convicted by the IT. S.
District court have escaped from the
penitentiary. Warden Miller offers a
reward of one hundred dollars each for
their arrest It is thought they will

this neighborhood.

City on Wednesday night last to con
sider the question of a narrow guage
railroad to Jacksonville and to take
steps to secure the construction of a
harbor of refuge at the former point.
Committees were appointed to visit
this section of country, and we hope
the interest taken with regard to re
newed connection between Rogue Riv
er valley and tide water will have some
practical result, if it be only the con
struction of a good wagon road. The
committee Mr. J. G. Wall and another
gentleman will be here on Friday.
H. Kelly is in town.
C0LB NOTES.
About a week ago one pan of dirt
washed in Bybee's claim, down Rogue
river, yielded thirty-six dollars.
Sturgis & Beckner, on Jackass, will
begin cleaning up next week and look
for big returns for their labor.
Piping on Star Gulch claim, Eckle
son, Hamilton & Co.,' still continues,
the water being "reservoired" by night
Squaw Lake Company are still pip
ing on the lower bar, no breaks having
occurred in their ditch since the weath
er settled.
Work at the Sterling mine is still
being crowded, the gravel looking splen
didly. The supply of water is ample
and is expected to continue until Au
gust Tom Kahler, of Fort Lane, has ceas
ed operations for the season and tells
us that he has 'realized ten dollars per
day to the hand for all work done this
season.
Beck, of Willow! Springs, is work-
three hands, ancging unug-
Jim, -uiwaawmiay il 1i um, iiqii Dt
dirt from the ground sluice and panned
out four ounces of dust The remain
der of the ground sluice is apparantly
quite as good.
George and Daniel Grrn are run
ning two arastra3 steadily at their
ledge on Galioe creek. Their rock is
averaging thirty dollars per ton with a
large supply in sight. l The boys will
have a good thing for themselves and
their children.
Water at the Centennial is failinf
but the company struck their best par
just before the supply began to fail.
We hear that a giant will be put in
operation next Winter, and with a half
way good season the company wi'l real
ize handsomely.
The Applegate company is still push
ing work on their ditch. From the su
perintendent, Mr. J. Fitzpatrick. we
learn that the ditch, five miles in
length, will be full of ' water by the
10th inst, but it will probably be
three weeks before piping'can be com
menced. May Day Festivities. The pro
gramme for the children's festival on
Thursday last was very faitiCully car
ried out. The pretty ce'.mony of
crowning Miss Carrie Beekman "Queen
of the May" and Master Andrew Hub
bell King was creditably performed, and
the boys,-Tvent down Jasr October, and
is a sharer in the fund. The boys have
sent a large 'amount of rich sjiecimcns
to their parents, and their energy and
pluck have evidently, been well re
warded.
Another Cave. Another magnify
cent limestone cave has been discov
ered in Josephine county, on a branch
of Cherry creek, nearly South of Wil-
derville. A partial exploration reveals
one of tho grandest chambers from the
ceiling of which are suspended the
most brilliant stalactites and crystals
that reflect the flashing torches and sug
gest the wonderful grandeur of tho
grottoe were Alladdin was imprisoned.
Some of the specimens brought out are
very beautiful, and as access is not
difficult a party will soon make a more
extended exploration.
Mr. W. D. Moller, foreman at the
Sterling mine was caved on yesterday
afternoon and from what we hear the
unfortunate man's injuries will proba
bly prove fatal, one of his thighs and
one arm being broken and his hips bad
ly crushed. The bank was very heavy
and we fear the report has not been
exaggerated. s
TEACHEITS IXSTITCTE.
A Teacher's Institute, nnder the di
rection of L. J.Powell, Superintendent
of Public Instruction, will be held at
Jacksonville, commencing on the even
ing of Thursday, May 22nd, and con
tinuing through the following Friday

been made by which teachers who live

executive committee, Rev. J. R. N.
Bell, of Roseburg, and L. L. Rogers,

away occurred just after dinner that
dampened all pleasure for the remain
der of tho day. Mr. Zach Cameron
was just starting home, having hi
mother and Mrs. C. C. Brogan in his
nuevO', wl'en his team became fright
ened and in an instant became unman
ageble and started to run. Breaking
t a'ght for tl e fence tho danger of a
fatal result was very imminent, but
Mr. Cameron turned their course
and in so doing the vehicle was upset,
turning completely over upon tho oc
cupants. Mrs. Cameron, who is quite
aged and in feeble health, had her
nose and right cheek bone broken and
sustained a severe sprain in one of her
ankles. Her son recoived a frightful
gash on his right temple and serious
injuries to his neck. Mrs. Brogan fain
ted several times from the shock but
escaped without a scratch. Mrs Cam
eron was taken to the residence of
Hon.. C. C. Beekman, where she now
remains as comfortable as could be ex
pected, and Zach is gradualy recovering
from his injuries. The whole party
may be considered to have made a
fortunate escape.

Frank Ennis is the best mining super
intendent in Oregon and one of the
best judges of horseflesh we ever knew.
Frank always.kgenyyM&ii- -
labors by lnoroTBnroue Democrat,
and as he waved' his cap when the
stage rolled away he felt that he had
friends left in Southern Oregon.
The Ashland "Tidings" reports the
rotten egging of Mike Colwell, the sub
contractoron tho Ashland and Lakeview
mail route, by the boys of that town.
The inciting cause was the fact that
Colwell refused to pay a little boy who
had rode and carried the mail for him
through sunshine and storm for many
weeks. He not only refused to pay
the boy but gingled the money in his
pocket and told him to get it if he
coulC This enraged the Ashland boys
and they robbed an old hen of her
embryo progeny and proceeded to pro
pel them against old Mike's carcass.
Our sympathies are with the poor old
hen. It is wrong for boys to rob hen's
nests, especially if the hens are setting,
but if such an outrage has to be com
mitted we know of no more deserving
target to project them against than a
man who would deliberately wrong a
little boy out of his honest earnings.
