C. yanCieve and Andrew Fuller are oyer in the bunch - grass country. The fawily of Chaunoey Nye. are at Crater lake, on a pleasure trip. Arthur Wilson and family, of Med- ford, are with thern. The many friends and admirers of the talented Misses Ora and Pearl Woodruff reerei their absence, they being on a pleasure trip, east." F. March, who has been rusticat ing near Prospect for some time, has returned to Central Point, but wilH be back soon to say for '.quite a wnue. Preparations are making to build ' w 4 aaa a waeon road up iuni creen to Huckleberry hill, to avoid the pres ent circuitous route to that much desired spot. E. Pleasants and family, of Cen tral Point, are with us again, and express their pleasure at being where it is possible to keep cool during the heated term. , "Our store at Prospect, kept by Mr. Akin, is now well stocked with all the necessaries of life. 1 he way Mr, Akin hands goods over the counter shows that .he understands the business. c A. H. Ifootbby points, with pride to the fruit on his three-year-oid trees, plums, prunes, cherries and apples." Mr. Boothby is also a gar dener of no small parts, but just now has laid down, the hoe to do a little paper banging in bis new hotel, which hotel, by the way, is a credit to rrospect. Jos. Buck was delayed in haying a few days, by the mower giving out. A new one was purchased, however, and Joe is now proceeding, with that energy that is sure to succeed. Mr. Buck is operating the farm of Mr. Akin since that gentleman has gone into the mer cantile business, and says he is a farmer from the ground up, Messrs. Irving McCall and George Stockton were all by their lone somes for a few days last week, each having a township to himself, occasioned by the neighbors all taking a trip. Each, on his 're spective creek, Irv. on McCall creek and George on Mill creek, lived at the "head of the gulch," and sus tained the reputation persons living la ouch localities enjoy. JIt. and Mrs. Benj. Norby have returned home, after a stay of some time in Central Point, visiting rela tives and friends. Their mountain home is situated directly upon the bank of the river Rogue, one mile from Mill creek. Mr. Norby will immediately commence making some improvements upon his home stead. The many friends of the worthy couple welcome them home. Messrs. R. Rasmufsen and Frank C. Ladd are over in the Lake coun try for a short stay, but will return soon and pick up the reins where they left off on their respective farms. E. L. Moore accompanied the boys but is now home, stowing . f more hav away, or rather stacking i more, as his barns are all full and in his meadows a second ciop can be cut. Mr. Moore has set the ex ample and illustrated, by that in dustry that characterizes him, that a good home can be made Here. Our neighbor, McDonald Perdue, is spending the summer at Crater lake. Air. ferdue nas been in receipt of letters from many parties who are coming to the lake this summer, and says he expects more visitors there this season than ever before. He has a boat on the lake for the accommodation of visitors, and those who have been with him on the water realize that it is poss ble for a brave soldier to also be come a bold and intrepid mariner. When Mao '.'shifts ..the jib, puts down the helm, and throws her up into the wind," he is superb. The withdrawal from settlement of all public lands along the Cas cade range has met with much dis approval. The only man who seemed to iavont was a man in Arkansas. Many inquiries are made as to what parts are reserved. Many wish to settle in this locality but are unable to find put where the land is open to settlement. Irving McCall says he will if Dossible. find out. He has had letters from the land office and from Congressman .Herman, but neither gave definite bounda ries. Irv. has now written, asking if filings will be accepted on lands in township' 31, range 2, and township 31, range 3, east of W. M An answer to this question ought to decide the paa'tter.

' " " '. It is stated on good authority that the Moun tain Lion mjneand mill will soon be in active operation unaer a new regime.

Rose & Benedict, to furnish their ditch with a good supply of water. The construction of the dam was engineered and superintended by .Mr. .Cajdwei, an old and ex perienced hand at any such business, as anyone who sees the dam will admit. Mr. Caldwell and parties have been working for some time, night and day, on their placer claim, and their, big wheel- lifts a supply of wator that fills the flume to overflowing and Icarrles the superfluous water back to a reser voir., at whtoh is located a sou shooter uiai shoots about every five minutes. They expect a good clean-up shortly, and deserve it, for tuey have been as Industrious as beavers. Slnoe my last communication Mr. Kellogg has had constructed on his Benedict place another dry-house, which will soon be put in active sor vice, as the hop crop is going to be so bountiful that his dry house on the Sonsou place won't nearly do the work. The hop business will soon be in full blast, and pickers are already beginning to gather and are camping in the vicinity. Mr. Kellogg Is a rustling manager and deserves the success for his company which Is surely theirs. It is said that Mr. Kellogg in tends starting a siinply store for his pickers, very shortly. EUREKA ! Mr. Thomas Batte, editor of the Graphic, Texarkami, Arkansas, has found what he believos to ba the beat remedy in existence for the flux.

An officer was called in and placed the aged bill collector under arrest on a charge of disorderly con duct. The latter was not a bit dis concerted, however, warning the officer that he cDuld not make the charge ' ''stick." Chief of Police Hunt .took the same view of the case and discharged the prisoner.

Mrs. M. French-Sheldon, the one woman who has made a success of African exploration, has arrived at New York. She. is to lecture at Chautauqua on African Bnbject, and to arouse inter est interest in her scheme for the coloni ration of a large tract of territotry in East Africa. In her journey she was struck by many natural resources of the country known as Gusha Land, a territory run ning along the Juba river and contiguous to Someli Land. The land at present is uncultivated, excepting for the small shiftless efforts of the natives. The country is rich in spices, gum, dye woods, timber and similar vegetation, and is suitable as well for the production of coffee, sugar, cotton and the like. For 250 miles the Juba river is naviga ble by small steamships, and gives easy access to the Indian ocean. The climate Is healthful and is, according to Mrs. French-Sheldon, similar to that of Florida. Most of the country is high land, and is therefore free from the dis advantages of tho lower African plains. Mrs. Bheiuon proposes to organize a colony to dovelop the country.
