They had nothing to eat and only the shelter of a tree to keeo them from the drench ing rain. The next morning they again started for camp as they sup- .jxised, but on the contrary, they took - an opposite direction. As soon as they were missed at camp all those on the ground, about 400 peo- nle. started out searching for them and after the doctor and his o-ood wife had beet, lost and without food twentv-four hours they were brought safely to camp.

A crew of Western Union linemen was at work the latter part of last -week taking down the" wire which formed the loop connecting Jackson ville with the main wires. The office was cut out at Jacksonville some time ago but the pole line was left standing, the company evidently thinking that the citizens of that city would put up a guarantee sufficient to justify them in re-establishing the office but such has not been the result and now that the wires and poles have been taken down it is not likely that an office will be put in there again very soon.

Last Sunday afternoon Phoenix was the scene of fire which swept away the home of Ezekiel Calhoun. The family were all away at the time and the first seen of the fire was by Mrs. E. J. Smalley, who was crossing the Btreet not far from where the house was located and noticed smoke issuing from the sides of the building. She gave the alarm, and though help was not long in arriving the fire had al ready made such headway that it was at once determined impossible to save anything except a few house hold effects. An organ, some bed ding and 300 pounds of flour com prised about everything that could be carried from the house, so rap idly did the fire burn, and these ar ticles, though moved to the center of the 6treet. had to be quickly re moved, so intense was the heat. The cause of the fire is said to be a box of ashes which Mrs. Calhoun had inadvertently left in the kitchen in the morning and as the fire was not discovered until two o'clock in the afternoon, it had undoubtedly been smouldering and running through the inside of the building for some time. The dwelling was worth about 1500 and there being no insurance, the loss is practically total. The destuction of property by the fire element is always to. be dreaded, but the destruction of a home with its . accompanying con forts is a matter that particularly calls for regret and sympathy from all sources. Are You doing to Prove up? . Recent Land Rulings. Among the land cases disposed of by the secretary of the interior is that of Eli S. Arthur and Elie dark Arthur vs. the Oregon Central Military Wagon. Road company, involving lands in the Lakeview district, in Oregon. This case came on appeal from the general land office decision, wnicn neld tnat the allowance of the entries of the two Arthurs were erroneous, and held them for cancellation, because the lands had long prior to the allowance of the en tries been certified to the state on ac count of the grant to aid in the con struction of the Oregon Central Mili tary road. The department holds that the cancellation is proper and upon the specification of a proper basis the tract involved will be again approved to the company as idemnity. John Ehelmesser recently appealed from the rejection of his application, for leave of absence for one year, from August 15, 1S54, from his homestead entry iu the Oregon City district. The a p ieal is of no avail, however, as the secretary has approved the conclusion of the land office in rejecting the ap plication. The lower rulings in the following homestead entry and land grant cases in Washington have been approved, those named being the ap pellants (rom the rulings favorable to the Northern Pacific: Samuel Wilson. North Yakima district; Griffon W, Jones and Henry H. Walker (James H. Tay, intervener, being jointly defend ant with the road), both in Vancouver district, and Moses S. Hammond, in Seattle district. The applications of the persons named therefore stand re jected. In the Wilson case the depart ment holds that, under the desert-land act, settlement with intention to take under its provisions would not be such an appropriation of the land as would prevent the right of the railroad from attaching on selection.
