The irrounda had been decorated with Chinese Inn terns and two large bonfires were bullion the banka of Milton creek, and, as the moon was at iu full, the combination of brook and forest made an Ideal woodman's scene. Nature furnished plenty of large logs for scats and tables, asd altogether a more delightful place for the occasion could not have been imauined. There was an attendance of over 100, and all seemed to thoroughly enjoy themselves. The uni(n)fomied rank, W. O. W., waa out in full dress, and it waa certainly very rank. We understand the ladies will repeat their entertainment in a few weeks If the weather Is suitable, and they will take care that the ice cream ia on hand.

CRAIQ, n tienrral rcmr AwHi n!'A'NP fti Mr. Jnnies Muckle was in this city last Saturday on bis way to Hunker Hill to prospect for iron ore. He will get out sml ship ten tons of this ore to Portland for smelting purpose. A smalt sample recently tested gave very satifuctory results, showing sixty per cent pure iron. The smelter in which this ore will be tested is a recent invention, and if the Columbia County ore is as good as it is believed to be, pig iron can lie placed on the mnrkct at a very much lower price than it is at present. The importance of this project, not only to Columbia County, but to the whole Stutc of Ore gon, can not be overestimated. The g4uie of base Iwll lietween St. Helens und Sellwood lust Sunday re sulted in a victory for the visitor. It was intended to be a five inuiugs game, but at the end of the fifth innings, the St. Helens team being ahead, the Sell wood boys proKscd to play the nine inuiugs out, and this was agreed to by St. Helens, the result lieing that the home team made no more runs, and, owing to a quarrel between two of its players, the game broke up. It was not a creditable exhibition from any point of view. It is to lie hoped the next game will I played under more favorable con ditions. Discipline should be maintained and disputes lietween the players pro hibited. It is also well to remember visitors should be treated courteously. George H. Hitching, of Hoquiam, has the contract for the building of a large transfer Imrge for the Northern Pacific Railway company. The barge is to bj' used at Knlnma for ferrying the North ern Pacific trains across the Columbia River, and is to bp held in readiness in case any accident should huppen io the transfer steamer Tacoma, now in, use there. It will not tie equipped wijlj ma chinery, but wlll .be towed across the i.lvos, The dimensions of the barge will be 370 leet long, 57 feet wide and 12 feet Judge Hatton has appointed the fol lowing named citizens to act as delegate to the convention called to organize the Oregon Development League, to be held at the Marquatn Grand Theatre at 10 'clock a. m., Tuesday, August S, 1904 W.

A convention of not more than two hundred members would be more har monious and business-like. Dai ley & Brinn' store is headquarter for general merchandise, Houlton, Ore gon. Good good a specialty. Quality, quantity and price guaranteed. The Rainier base boll team paid a visit to -Astoria last Sunday and were the victors in a contest with the local club. According to the livening Telegram this produced such an exhiliarating effect upon the Rainier 1oys that they w unable to restrain themselves on their return trip and numerous fights occurred on the train, to their own disgrace and the annoyance of the passengers. What the train men were doing while the rows were on is not stated. Magnolia, Canadian Club, Old Govern ment Whiskies and Gordon's Dry Gin at the Owl Saloon. Old Crow Whiskey bottled in bond.

A great deal of good could be accomplished by such a society in the way of inducing the own er of property io lay a-ood sidewalk. build neat fences, and paint their build ing. A building that pay iu two year more than it would cost to rebuild ia cer taiuly deserving of a little paint. Iyast Monday was without exception the hottest day of the season, and to make matter worse, there was not much breeze atirring. But every branch of in dustry in and around town was kept go ing and there were no fatalities reported irom the excessive heat. About five o'clock p. m. a cool breeze spraar up and oor people had the relief prayed for. Tuesday morning wa cool and ihowery, cool enough for fires.

The amount was due for wage and was paid in full by the Security Saving and Trust Company, Elliott having made an assignment for the bene-1 fit of his creditors. AH the labor claims against the property, amounting toj about 1800, have been settled. The as signment was made to C. T. Adams, president of the bank, who will manage the property for the benefit of the credit or. V. H. Powell was attorney for Libby. Our suits, from 1.50 up to 12.50, are better value than you can get in Portland. PERRY & GRAHAM. M. J. Kittering, of Rainier, has at tached the property of W. J. and Durinda Muckle, of Rainier, for money alleged to be due on notes for flMO. The property has been taken in charge by Sheriff White, who has placed a keeper in cus tody. It is rumored that if the run of fish is large the fishing season will be extended for a few weeks. In other words, the authorities will wink at a violation of the law. The men have not earned wages so far, and a the fish are slow in coming up the river, it would seem to be proper to extend the season and give the fishermen and the canneries a chance to do a little business. fVVfVVV. -fV'l THIS is mm SOME READ CAREFULLY.
