PACKING HOUSE AT GOBLE
A Cold Storage Plant Under
Construction.
It Will Furnish Employment for
Many People and Be In Opera
tion by Next June.
After several years of stagnation the
town of Ooble has taken a new lease
of life, and much to the surprise of
those wbo formerly visited that town,
there is now a different scene pre
tented. Everybody are in high spirits
over the future prospects of the place,
and well thoy may be, since an in
dustry is starting there that will, if
followed by energy and a liberal spirit
on the part of the owners of real
estate, make a thriving city, in a con
venmnt location.
The foundation for the new cold
storage packing bouse of the Tresoott
Packing Company it now being laid
under tbe supervision of Mr. William
Palmer, whilo tbe construction of the
main buildings will be under the u
perintendency of Mr. L. A. Woodbury
or Portland. 'I be foundation I.-rllie
main building is of cement tor which
there are on the premises 800 barrels
of lime at present. Tbe main build
ing will be bZxlOU, four stories high,
with a power house attached, which
will be 35x00 feet with 20 foot studding.
The engines will be of 100-horse Dower.
in addition to this tbe company ex
pect to build a publio wbarf 150 feet
In length on the water front, the site
being located on the ship channel.
An office building will also be placed
under construction as soon as the
other buildings are well under head
way. The tract of land purchased
upon which to constraot the plant is
SUOxoOU leet, end occupies the ground
between tbe railroad track and tbe
river channel. The company expect
to have the plant ready for business
by June next, and it will be of suffi
cient oapneity to handle all the fish
that can be supplied. Nearly one-
half million leet of lumber will be
used in the buildings, which has not
yst been contracted for, moat of which
must be seasoned, dressed and of first
quality. After the plant is in opera-
lion Mr. Frank Hontey, of .Portland,
will have charge of the packing and
thlpplng of ita product. There are
at present fourteen men at work on
tbe foundation, and when the wood
work on the building is begun a larger
force will be engaged. These men
draw their salaries in caah every Sat
urday night, which already distributes
considerable money in tbe community,
Tbe company back of Ibis enter
prise it not a new one, the Tretoott
Packing Company having been en
gaged in the business in Portland for
some time, and consequently under
stand tbe business. Heretofore and at
present tbe Northwest Cold Storage
Company, of Portland, is packing the
Trescott Company'a fish, but believing
Qoble a good point for the business
they decided to establish a punt ol
their own, and their minds once made
up it took but a short time to forma
late plans and atari tbe work of con
struction. Tbe company operate a
steamer of their own for tbe purpose
of gathering up and delivering fish to
their establishment, and if tbe busi
ness requires it they will put on an
other steamer during the busy period
of the year.
Contrary to statements heretofore
tent out the company do not expect
to engage in the canning business,
but tbe plant will b used exclusively
for the freexing, under the cold storage
process, of salmon and sturgeon, which
will be shipped to the marketa ot me
East and South. From the latter fish
a special feature will be made of tbe
caviar or roe, which win be shipped
direct to Europe, where there is al
ways ready market at a handsome
price, tbe present price oi caviar paia
fishermen being 12 cents a pound.
There are some Important points in
connection with the establishment
that the reporter was not privileged to
give at present, but will be furnished
st some future time, but suffice it to
say that tbe enterprise will prove
profitable to the promoters and dis
tribute a large amount of money ever
month among people who need a
market for their labor. Onoe the es
tablishment ia in operation it will
furnish steady employment for from
fifteen to twenty men in handling and
shipping tbe fish, while perhaps it
will be the means of keeping employed
from 150 to 850 fishermen all the year.
Thb Mist is especially pleased to
see snch an enterprise in course -of
construction, and feela confident it
will be a tuccess financially and an
incalculable benefit to the town and
community where it ia located, and
aaide from direct benefits to be de
rived it will attract and stimulate other
business ventures. Thb Mist is al
ways glad to see evidences of prosper
ity in any part of the country.

MYSTERY SOLVED IN PART
Hugh Boyle Located in the
Mines of Alaska.
But Who Committed the Robbery
Is the Mystery that Still lie-
main Unsolved.
The following article Is taken from the
Catblamot Gazette, and will throw some
light on the mysterious disappearance of
Hugh Boyle from th lower end of this
county two years ago, a clrcamstanc
which caused considerable excitement at
the time. The statement given below rosy
satisfy tbe minds of many as to th where
abouts of Hugh Boyle, bnt there is nothing
to show that It was he that committed th
burglary. The Gazette says:
"Where Is Hugh Boyle f This ia the
question that has puzzled ths nilnas of tbs
community fur the pant two years. Had
the earth opened up and swallowed him.
bis disappearance would not be more coin
plete. On October 20, 1803, Boyle called 00
Miss Martha Collins, at Dent, Oregon,
where she was teaching school. Boyle, it
was said, had been an admirer of Miss Col
lins for some lime previous, but bis atten
Hons had never been reciprocated. Boyle
then left for Astoria, where he registered
on October 23rd and from that date disap
peared from mortal view. Lost to tbe
world, alike to friend or roe.
"On opening her desk soon after the
parting Miss Collins found 1400 iu money,
a watch and a ring belonging to lloylr,
The young lady was necessarily put about
iu finding herself In possession of tbe val
uables and left them remain in th school-
bouse for a day or two. Fearing lest some
tiling might coiue over these valuables she
removed them to her room at the house of
Mr. Lane, with whom ahe boarded. 8b
placed the money in her valise, along with
ItlOofherown money. Borne daya after
ward the Lane house was burglarized and
th satchel robbed of its content. Prior to
tbe robbery Miss Collins had confided the
affair to the Lane family, who were there
fore cognizant of the whereabouts of the
money. Upon returning from school Miss
Collins was apprised of the burglary and
waa told by Mrs. Lane to go to her room
and see of anything had been stolen. Upon
investigation Miss Collins reported that
the thieves bad got away with all tb
money in her pocession. Mrs. Lane inti
mated that perhaps a careful search of the
satchel might reveal the presence of her
own money. Ths conjecture proved to be
true, as the tOO belonging to Miss Collins
was untouched.
Boyle haa a homestead claim on the
Clatakanie, and it was supposed he would
possibly be found there. His brothers
were communicated with and dilligent
search instituted, but no trace of liim could
be found. Sheriff Mas-ie , of Columbia
county. In conjunction with Sheriff Smith
of Clatsop, and Deputy Sheriff Morgan of
Multnomah county worked upon tbe case
in conjunction with detectives from Fort-
land. At the instigation of the authorities,
Miss Collins swore out a warrant lor the
arrest of Lane who was tried and acquitted.
"Last Saturday a Gazette reporter ran
across John Bigelow of Kelso, in Portland.
Mr. Bigelow left for Alaska in February of
this year, in company with two other com
panions. On March 10th be met Hugh
Boyle while going in on the Yucon trail to
the mining regions. 1800 miles from Juneau,
Boyle waa driving a horse team for a party
and appeared to be enjoying the best of
health. Before meeting Boyle, Mr. Bige
low bad incidentally heard that an indi
Tidual named Boyle was at the diggings
and upon inquiry learned it was hi old
friend whom he bad known and worked
with for ten years. Boyle on meeting Mr,
Bigelow appeared to be taken by surprise
at seeing his old companion and as it waa
getting lata in th evening Boyle made an
engagement to meet Mr. Bigetow the next
day at a given bonr but Boyle failed to put
in an, appearanoe. Bigelow inquired for
him but could find no trace of his where
abouts.
For the sake of Boyle's relatives and
frienda, it is a matter of sincere pleasure
that the mystery surrounding th disap
pearance of Boyle has been cleared np and
his whereabouts definitely located.
"Mr. Bigelow has not formed a very fa
vorable opinion of Alaska. He says the
country is very rough and the coat of get
ting supplies ia simply enormous. The
freight on goods from Seattle to the flrat
station on the Yacon trail is 800 per ton.
so it can be readily see a that the prospector
who have a limited 'grub stake' better slay
at home.''
