The Merchants Intestmont and
Trust Co. of Portland, Ore., whose
advertisement appears elsewhere
in this paper, have issued a very
attractive Utile booklet for free dis
tribution containing information
about the scope and purpose of
their institution. One point borne
upon strongly is the advisability
of persons having; estates or invest
ments to look after, of placing
their affairs in the hands of the
company. The Merchants Invest
ment & Trust Co. argues that the
proper care of estates demands a
talent of high order, and that in
dividuals of suflicient business
skill for handling estates unusual
ly have affairs of their own which
prevent them from engaging in
such a service for any other per
son. The Merchants Investment
& Trust Co. in soliciting business,
calls attention to the fact that a
trust company never sleeps, never
dies and never absconds. The
company declares its willingness to
accept accounts of all kinds and
states they are as ready to receive
five dollars worth of business as
they are five thousand. Their
booklet will be mailed to you free
if you write and ask for it.

The Antelope Herald of July
6th ha just reached our table and
under the head of "Baseball Notes"
we find the following comment on
our Fourth of July baseball tourna
ment:
That was a first-class showing
that the Antelope Kid base-ball
team made at Prineville this week,
where they were defeated two
came and won one game. As
stated last week, our boys went to
Prineville, where it wa& advertised
that teams from Prineville, Mad
ras, Bend, Redmond and Antelope
were to take part in a four days'
tournament of base ball and where
each team was to meet each of the
other teams; bnt through some
(mis) understanding it was a
tournament of all the combined
teams of Crook county against
Antelope. However, our boys
made a showing against these odds
which would do credit to any ball
team, and while we were defeated
in the percentage column, only
taking second money, it was very
evident to all persons who saw the
games that Antelope had the best
team on the grounds and could de
feat any one team that was repre
sented there. The first game was
between Antelope and Prineville
and resulted in a victory for Ante
lope by the score of 9 to 8. Dugan
Hooper and "DuBty" Rhodes were
the Antelope battery. The second
game was between Antelope and
Crook county and resulted in a
victory for Crook county by a score
of 11 to 5. The third game waB
between Antelope and Crook coun
ty, and resulted in a scratch vic
tory for Crook county by a score of
8 to 7.
The games are over and the boys
have returned and are loud in
praise of their treatment at Prine'
ville and are proud of the showing
they made in the games, and are
hopeful of again meeting Crook
county ball tnssers in individual
teams or in a combined team.
Dixie Meadows Gold Mine.
The Dixie Meadows Gold Min
ing Company held its annual stock
holders meeting Ibursday. The
officers and board of directors for
the ensuing year were elected.
The work of the past year was re
viewed and plans for the future
discussed. The stock held in
Prineville was represented by W.
A. Booth and Q. M. Cornet. C. A.
John of Baker was also present
representing the interest of his clients.
The following officer were elect
ed: R. C. Reese, president; G. M.
Cornett, vice-president; A. M. F.
Kirchheiner, secretary; V. C. Bel
knap, treasurer.
The following are the board of
directors: R. C. Reese, V. C. Bel
knap, G. M. Cornett, T. M. Bal
dwin and Geo. Knight.
R. C. Reese was appointed super
intendent. It wa understood,
however that Col. Smith of Prine
ville would be put in charge of the
mine. He is a thorough business
man and the Prineville inteieet
suggest him as be has been very
succeecful in contract work and
has had much experience in rail
road work.
Work will be resumed within
two weeks and the prospects are
brighter now than they have been
for some time. A great deal of
money . has been spent and the
mine has now reached the stage
where it can be made a good pro
ducer.
I hat tbe Uixie Meadows is a
great mine there can be no ques
tion. Its value can be determined
with a foot rule and a little assay
work. In its 4000 feet of tunnel
work the ore can be measured and
its value which is the in sight can
lie determined. There arc four
levels with a vertical depth in the
lower one of 400 feet. An eighty
foot shaft has been sunk in the
lower level. The ore in this is of
the same character as above except
that its values seem to be mere as
ing. W hen work is resumed it
will probably be in the shaft. As
to the installation of the machin
ery no definite action was taken
but it is the belief that steps will
be taken for the purchase of a
stamp mill. Prairie City Miner

Editor Journal: We got back
from our trip to the valley on the
19th. When we reached the Wu
lamette valley it was wet and mud'
dy and when we left it was hot
dryjand dusty. The morning of
the 12th of July, the day we start
ed home, the thermometer register
ed 101 at 9 o'clock a. m. There
were lots of berry blossoms in the
mountains as we crossed but for
some cause there were no berries to
speak of on our return. It was our
intention to lay in a supply of
blackberries at Seven-mile moun
tain but - when we got there we
could not find enough to eat.
Dave Barnett, Fred McDowell
and Mr. Loveland are going to the

are all under the weather.
