Spokane. ion soi Al Stephens left this morning for Camp Carson with a large crew of men and teams to convey supplies to the mines up the river. He succeeded in outfitting for the trip yesterday af ternoon. So difficult was his task that at one .time he considered seriously of going to North Powder, from which place he thought It would be easier for him to get transportation. When the outfit started this morning they figured on reaching the camp tomor row night. Mr. Stephens has secured the old Carson mine, whose banks and bars for years have been known to contain the root of all evil In paying quanti ties and company after company have been organized and thousands of dol lars have been spent on this proper ty. The gold is there but being im bedded in what is termed a cement formation which practically refuses ot dissolve in the sluice boxes the gold is carried In. Mr. Stephens Is asso- r!?.t?d v;lth several Fuiliauu capital ists and they are going to install a large 100-ton mill which will bring up the pay dirt and gravel. Those who have been in close touch with this valuable property for many years firmly believe this system will result In "Old Carson" yielding up her wealth. The mill will arrive within the next 30 days, if not sooner. IS remaiiuik The prospects for the lecture course that the Rev. Ford Ellis has been in terested In bringing to the city are now very bright, as a large number of season tickets have been sold. How ever, there are still fifty tickets to be disposed of before the announcement can postively be made that the course will be given. It is earnestly hoped by ail who are interested in having a lecture course of this character in the city thut the necessary amount of tickets may be sold. Tickets may cow be obtained by phoning to the Rev. Ford Ellis, whose phone number Is Main 67. La Follette Is tho first number ot the course to appear in La Grande, many have expressed the thought that the privilege of hearing this "Whip of the Senate" is alone worth the price of the entire course. But there are four other numbers, each of decided value. Lybarger will come second with a lecture entitled, "Land, Labor, and Wealth," a subject In which the people of this city are deeply Interest ed. Edward Elliott will next give an evening's reading of some of his mas terful dramatic scenes, while fourth on the list the man of mystery, Lau- rant, the magician, will come with his tour assistants. Lastly ten col- lego singing girls will fittingly close the course lu song. Miss Grace Boner ,the agent of the lecture bureau, who for some days has very successfully carried on the ticket campaign in the city, left yesterday for Baker City, where she will com plete the arrangements for a $1,000 lecture course to be given there. She will then go to Pendleton, where the same course is to be given that the people of La Grande are to enjoy. Irishmen Celebrate.

Unless you do so we have no knowledge but what mm POOR FARM Yesterday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Ed Kiddle of Island City, twenty three pounds of carpet rags were tack ed by a number of ladies who were invited by Mesdames Kiddle, Bldwell, and Hunter to assist in making rugs for county poor farm. Not long ago Mrs. Kiddle and Mrs. Bldwell visited the poor farm, and found that while the seven inmates were well taken care of by the county there was one thing that might be done to add to their comfort. The floors of the rooms were painted, but the visitors decid ed that the addition of a small rug in each room would be welcome to the old men whom fortune has left homeless in their declining years. At once and the promoters ar ranged for a tacking bee in order to get the rags necessary for making the rugs. It was asked that each lady bring enough rags to make a pound when tacked. Each guest brought more, however .the result beiner that sixteen ladles had a nice assortment of balls weighing 23 pounds at the close of the pleasant afternoon. The hostesses served Ice cream and coffee. There will be another rag tacking in three weeks at the home of Mrs. Fred Kiddle. It is desired that enough rags may be tacked to make rugs for ten rooms, as more inmates are ex pected soon at the farm. IS VISITS HIRE State Representative E. M. Harris, of Idaho, spent yesterday in the city as the guest of his mother Mrs. E. M. Harris, after a tour of inspection on state land matters in the northern part of the state. He left yesterday evening for Boise, his home. Mr. Harris, a prominent politician of his state, was a member of the state committee appointed by the governor to do the Investigating, and he has done so. His visit with his mother, who came here a few months ago to make her home, was a brief one. Golf Tourney. GLASGOW, Sept. 22.
