An order made In tbe county court
at ft last session, empowering and di
recting the sheriff to execute deed to
Columbia county for all land hereto
fore bid in by the county at tax calee,
and not subjeot to redemption, i one
of considerable importance. Itiapoa
eible now for penon to select a de
sirable piece of land owned by tbe
county and make application to the
clerk for its purchase by depositing
the eash, and at the next regular sit
ting of the court tho property will be
ordered transferred. By this order
the county now owns all lands pur
chased by it two years ago, and pre
vious to that time, and is willing to
dispose of the same for the amount of
it claim against it.
A bowling contest now on between
teams composed of local bowlers in
this city seems to be the center of at
traction with the "sporting" element.
A tournament of twenty-one games it
to be played, three game each niiiht,
two nights in the week. Dr. Cliff, Q.
O. Mayffnr, Jame Rise, J. O. Watu,
K. E. Quick and Thomas Muckle, with
James Sheldon, a oaptain, are pitted
against Andrew King, David Davis,
Martin While, W. A. llarri. O. A.
Hull and C. II. Johns, with Marion
Gray, as captain, and interest is at
fever boat. Nine games have so lar
been bowled with the twoteams"neok-and-neck
in tha race. Friend Gable
is proving himself a genial and Impar
tial coachor, carefully guarding the
prerogatives of each individual. The
outcome is very uncertain. Each
team Is averaging 600 points each

Tbe large jam of logs whioh-riss
been in Milton creek, near the Scap-pooe-8t.
Helens road, for several
months, was successfully brokeu and
the greater number of the log are
now aaoat ia Scappoose bay. The
jam contained several million feet ol
choice fir log which It wue absolutely
impossible to move without an im
mense bead of water at the large dam,
which rcsultrd from the rocent heavy
rains. While this lam and other lots
of logs "hung up" In the oreek have
been an unfortunate thing for their
owneri, it has also been an obstruc
tion to the progress of operations of
tbe Oregon Wood Company, who de
pend to a considerable extnt upon an
open creek to' operate their flume.
Over a thousand oords of wood were
awaiting thie opportunity for unob
etrucled passage down the oreek. The
good resulis from this half days work
can hardly be estimated. The logs
represent the labor of nearly every
man living along Milton creek, as that
industry it chief in that vicinity, and
no logs had been run out of ttie creek
Inm nAiirltf t(l VfiarS James Muckle
