The Robertson Raft Company has pur
chased a considerable body of timber on.

It now seems enlirely safe to say that

or nine car loads cf Iron arrived there
this week and were unloaded, and that
is good evidence that the promoters

mother, Mrs. E. Butler, of thia city, two
sister. Mrs E. Sullivan, of Portland,
and Mrs. W. D. McN'sir, of Sitka,
Alaska, and one brother, Marion Butler,
of Portland. Ilia remains were laid to
rest in Lone Fir cemetery, Portland.
The achool entertainment and social
at Houlton Monday evening was a
derided success in every particular.
Tbe programme consisted of a large
variety of selections, recitations, dia
logues, drill', vocal and instrumental
music, and was hugely enjoyed by one
of the largest audiences ever assembled
in that town. After the programme
had been completed, which required
nearly two hour's timo, a large number
of lunch baskets were auctioned off, the
proceeds of which was nearly '. This
money ia to be used to purchase a library
for the school. The people of that dis
trict are very enthusiastic about their
achool and are ever ready to devote time
and money to any cauae which promises
to further the cause of their educational
institution.
Joe Bureau waa taken to 8t. Helena
Saturday bv Marshal G. D. Sutherland.
and upou arrival there it waa found thut
lie nud never oeen reieasea irom me
asylum, but had run away. Joe had
been acting queer the past two months,
lie had several graves dug on the hill back
of Bureau's mill and buried some of his
old clothes there, with the belief that
he was burying his troubles. He placed
evergreens end a white cloth around the
clothes and a eross at the head of the
grave. Around them he cleared quite a
large space. Another of his hallucina
tions was that he was surveying a rail
road to the Nehalem valley. He will be
better an at the asylum than running at
large around here. Clatskanie Chief.
Mr. J. B. Yeon. of tbe Star Logging
& Lumbering Company, of Beaver val
ley, haa a team ot horses, wnicn. no
doubt, is the largest in this county.
Thev are giaya, six years old and weigh
3670, the heaviest one weighing 1810
pounds. Mr. Xeon is one oi those
monied men who got his start by swing
ing an ax in a logging camn, and may
Km ,ufm any day hum lino freight and
doing other similar work about hia large
camp. His interests in Beaver valley
are very extensive and when he gets his
plant in such shape as he desires it will
be one erf the moat extensive logging

soon of building a long siding at Houl

and laid out the work. Thia additional
aiding track ia being put In for the ac
commodation of local shippers as well
as for affording means for permitting
trains to pass. The Oregon Wood Com
pany expects to ship some of its output
irom tiouiton.
There Is a strong sentiment in favor
of changing the location of the county
mad leading down the bill irom tne
Stanwood place to Milton creek. A
much easier grade can be had by follow
ing the route of an abandoned skid road.
nearer the foot of the hill, and as much
of the grading ia already done, the im
provement could be made at a very
small cost.
Tbe board of directors of the Houlton
school district has decided to conXnue

Judge John F. Canles. of Portland.
has kindly consented to deliver a lecture
in this city in the very near future, per
haps Friday evening. April 19th, on his
experiences in South America. There
will be an admission fee charged, the

school, to be used for purchasing neces

J. T. Reed declares that he never
knew of siioh a season for cougars as this
one is. lie says he saw three large cou
gars together, near bis premises, on Mil
ton creek, laat Friday, and bad an op
portunity to ahoot at one of them, but
without enect. A quarter oi beet waa
stolen, carried a way and buried by a
cougar, and two of hia 'dogs, which at
tempted to protect their master's inter
ests from the ravages of the big cats.
were treated to such chastisement that
they were Indefinitely laid on tbe aheif.
The Rainier Dramatic Club presented
the farce comedy. "Captain Racket."
to a packed house in their city laat Sat
urday night. Tbe dot waa a very
comical one and tbe caat waa such that
every character was sustained in the
moat able manner. Tbe ellorts oi the
local club have been emiently aucceasful.
and the people of that town ahould be
proud that such talent is there. Mo
community, however absorbed in its
business allaira, ran be wholly indinerent
to those diversions or amusements that
promise a little relief to tired brains and
muscles. The country town must rely
upon its home talent for what the larger
cities get in their theaters nlghtlv aa a
distraction from the "cares that infest
the day." Certainly tbe Rainier Dra-
atlc Club Is a success.
Mrs. Lucy U. Hall, wife of Mr. G. A.
Hail, of this city, died at- her sister's
borne in Portland on Tiiursday of last
week, of consumption, after an illnesa
ot over three months. Deceased was
26 years, two months and 21 davs of
age, having been born in New York
city in 1877. She was married at her
mother's home, in Weat Portland, Aug
ust 4th, 1HU7. and had resided continu
ously in thia city since, until about aix
weens ago sne waa taken to rortianu.
She was known in this county before
her marriage aa Miss Lucy Irvine, hav
ing taught several terms of achool at
different places. She bad a large num
ber of acquaintances and friends who
were pained to learn of her death. Tbe
burial took place in Greenwood cemetery,
south of Portland, last Saturday.
Captain H. R. Robertson says ar
rangements are being made to construct
three large log rafts on the lower Colum
bia for towing to San Francisco. One
of these will be put together at West
port, but the site for the building of the
other two has not yet been determined.
The 6 rat is to be sent to sea in May, and
the other two later on in the summer.
"The building of theae huge rafts will
give employment to several hundred
man ' t :utatn RiiKuptain Mva. "itnil
involve the expenditure of nearly $200,-
000. The construction of log rafts is no
longer an experiment, and no accidents
have resulted in their being towed on
tbe ocean for several summers. My
company will probably begin the con
struction of the huge cradles within tbe
next ruontn."
A dispatch in Wednesday's Oregonian
from Astoria, said; "A new company
has entered the held (or tbe purchase
of timber lands iu Clatsop county. It
is the Merrill Lumber Company, of Wis
consin, and the brat lot of deeds trans
ferring property to it have been niea.
Deeds have also been filed transferring
several claims to the Charles A. Street
Lumber Company, of Chicago. During
the paat few weeka thia company and
Willis N. Gilbert, of Wisconsin, who
are understood to be Jointly interested,
have purchased about 20,000 acres of
timber landa in the Upper Nehalem val
ley, (or which they have paid about
tlUO.000 in cash." This last mentioned
deal is undoubtedly the one on which
Messrs. l'ringle & Campbell, oi vei
nonia, have been working for tbe past
two or three years.
An extremely larire con ear was killed
Tueaday morning near Charley Wallia'
Clace, on Milton creek, xne annual nau
een making bis presence known in that
vicinity for some time, and Tuesday an
organized effort was made to land tbe
reliow. JJan Richardson, Sherman sex
ton and Fred Hendricks were present at
the time the animal was shot, however,
there were a nuiuber of other boys in
pursuit. Dogs, put on the track of the
fellow, soon sent him up a tree, and
Fred Hendricks, who was in close pur
suit, rushed to the spot, and with steady
nerve and a bullet from a trusted ritie,
sent crashing through the animal's
heart, brought him to the ground. For
fear the shot had not been effective Fred
continued to Are, shooting the brute
through the neck on its descent, and
twice through the head as soon as it
reached the ground. The cougar meas
ured exactly seven feet, six inches from
tip to tip and stood three feet high.
There is said to be more of these ani
mals in that vicinity.
Y.liahajl nntirn tha sub
scribers to tbe fund for putting in tbe
local telephone line from Yankton to
Ht. nolens met at tne scnooi-nou
the former place last Saturday after
noon and effected an organization for
the future management of the associa
tion's affairs by electing a board of di
rectors for three, two and one years, re
spectively, and a secretary lor two yeara.
Messrs. G. L. Tarbell, Fred Briggs and
G. R. Hyde were the directors chosen and
lAiiia itamar m. am nhnaen secretary.
These officers were empowered to draft
Dy-iaws ana eei, ui ruien , mid k"--ernment
of the line and to fix a sched
ule of prices to be chargod to non-subscribers.
The matter of incorporating
was briefly mentioned and the senti
ment of the Yankton people was against
such a move. They contend that the
line was built as a community conveni
ence and they did not choose to enter
Into any compact whereby the slightest
restrictions might be placed upon their
privileges. They are willing to grant
the use of their wire if anyone desires
to extend the line, as suggested. Tar
bell's mill and Warren may soon be con
nected by this line, and as conveni
ence, it promises to bs the most popu
lar enterprise in the community.
Mr. C. L. Ayres, of Carlco, attended
the school entertainment at Houlton,
Monday evening. His daughter, Myrtfe,
who has attended school at that place
during the winter, returned home with

Piper says that in his part of the county
viiv minima nrq getting ovvrjiiuiig ju

is looked for.
Fees collected in the county clerk's of
fice continue to assume considerable
firoportions, the month of March keep
ng up tbe average very noticeably. For
recording there waa collected last month
t)7.80; for court fees, (109.86; land re
demptions, 21.87, making a total of
kii.oz ior tne month.
Mr, James Dart, of this city, recently
disposed of a half section of land in the
vicinity of Goble, for a figure which en
abled dim to double bis money. Mr.
Dart thinks tbe land was purchased for
the Goble Railroad Company, although
the deed waa made in trust to another
party. Tiie land coat him about 1600
ana was sold lor i 32UO.
John Pringle, sr., of Vernonia, was in
St. Helena Tuesday, en route home from
Portland, whither he went about a week
ago in the interest of a large timber
deal he has on the tapis. Mr. Pringle
told a reporter for this paper that he
bad practically closed a deal fo.' 16,000
acres of Nehalem timber, and he felt
confident the transfer would be consum
mated in very few days.
Clatskanie Briefs.
E. B. Elliott and son spent s portion
of the week in Portland.
Mrs. A. H. Graham, of Marshland,
spent a day or two in town with ber
niece, Miss Cole.
Norman Merrill wu Clatskanie's only
delegate to republican conventions in
rortiana tins week.
A term of school began in the Barr
district last Monday, and at,Quincy
school began a week earlier.
Tf la r.rvr.r nA that lwiroa Bntliorlanil
and David McDonald Jtxpect to put in
logs on lower Beaver this summer.
Mrs. D. A. McGillivary started last
week for Ottawa, Canada, near which
place a daughter lives wiio is reported
quite ill.
Tilden Graham has moved his family
out to the shingle mill owned by him
self and bis brother, fcilvo, on the E. B.
wood place.
We learn there is at least one ticket
in tbe field for city officers to be voted
for next Monday and it is probable an
other will be arranged in time for voters
to take their choice.
Miss Tracv. from Portland., and Miss
Cole, from Marshland, were in town the
laat ot tbe week and started for riehalera
to begin school work in adjoining dis
tricts Monday morning.
Since the interest in the county re
publican convention has abated some
what and a little time bas been taken to
sum up the results of its work, the
statement may be safely made that the
tivket in general gives to tbe voters in
this part of the county a very great de
gree of satisfaction, and from present
appearances the support ol the republi
can voters will be given the entire ticket.
Dr. Hall went with a patient to Port
land Monday evening, who he expected
to place in a hospital there for a few
davs. He reports the city filled with
politicians, disposed to be very cordial
until they learned he was not a delegate,
when their special interest seemed to
suddenly abate. This was to be ex
pected. They had special work to do
this week that must be done with dele
gates or boomers. j
A number of logs were floated past
the town last Monday, to be rafted far
ther down the river. It is a matter of i
surprise to many who do not know, that
these loga lie in tide water so long with
out being taken away. Demand is re
ported good, but tne logs move out very
slowly, with consequent tardy financial
returns. This latter feature interests
the merchants and blacksmiths to a con
siderable extent.
Special Easter services were held in
the church Sunday evening, which at
tracted more than the usual audience.
Tasteful and somewhat elaborate floral
decorations may have contributed some
what to tne increased attendance, tnougn
participation by the bunday school
scholars in the exercises doubtless had
its influence. A special responsive
Easter exercise, containing appropri
ate music, waa rendered, followed by an
address from tbe pastor mainly on mis
sionary work. This was supplemented
bv tbe missionary collection, an annual
feature of most of the churches. Tbe
offering for the purpose was quite a lib
eral one.
MY. W illiam Simmons and Miss Leona
Popham. both of this city, were married
at 'be residence of the bride's parents,
by Key. J. K. Hawkins, on Tuesday
evening of this week, in the presence
of the immediate relatives and a very
few friends. Mr. Simmons is in the em
plov of H. Kratz. while the bride is the
daughter of P. J. Popham, a blacksmith
of our city. The happy couple were the
recipients of numerous useiui presents,
and a boat of good wishes from many
friends. Tbey are well known ana pop
ular young people, and expect to go to
housekeeping in rooms over the store,
where tbey will soon be at home to their
friends.
Better Than Pills.
The Question has been asked, "In
what way are Chamberlain's Stomach
and Liver Tablets superior to pills T"
Our answer In: Tbey are easier ana
more pleasant to take, more mild and
gentle in effect and more reliable, as
they can always be depended upon.
Then they cleanse and invigorate the
stomacn ana leave tne ooweis in a nat
ural condition, while pills are more
harsh in enect ana tneir use is ouen fol
lowed by constipation. For sale at the
St. Helens pharmacy.
