day last week.
Mr. Hanes gave a dance Friday night

Owing the continued rains farmers in
this locality manv have been delayed
in finishing their seeding and gardening.
Notwithstanding the bad weather
there is some-one almost daily passing
through here en-route to the Ogle Creek
mines. Last week James Thome,
Doctor Goiifher and others went to Ogle
Creek. They had to abandon their
horses some eight or nine miles before
they reached the mines, on account of
the snow . It will be some time before
the Red Rock trail will be clear from
snow so that horses can travel the en
tire distance. The most of the travel
now to Ogle Creek goes by way of the
river route as there is no snow that way
but the Molalla at this season of the
vear is a dangerous stream to ford un
less one is well acquainted with the
crossings. Wbat little prospecting has
been done so far this spring at Ogle
Creek is very flattering. That country
will probably be developed this season.
People here generally deplore the cut
ting inflicted upon the person of Lon
McLane by Eli Deck and muchsyra
pathy is extended the family .
ihe Molalla orchestra is practising
regular. They will furnish music for
the drama, "Above tbe Clouds," that
will be given by home talent to the
stone for the foundation. Notwitbstand
log bard times there will be several
new buildings erected at and near
Molalla Ibis summer in the way of barna
and homes. There la still a probability
that we will bave roller mill here this
year. Mr. Rodgera (the miller) and
family have located here with us ind
he is trying to make the enterprise a
success.
Our school will close on May 5th.
Work on the new achool bouse will
be commenced as soon as possible after
school cloees.
Frof. Charles Cutting wat through
here recently on bia road to some mine
located on a tributary of tbe Molalla.

and was well fixed generally, in fact,
has started to the mountains for a sea-

man who went to Eastern Oregon from
here recently has failed to locate the
garden of Eden out there and wants to
get back to Molalla again. Of such is
bunchgrass to one that has been raised
in Clackamas county.
We had a new doctor locate with us
recently but he disappeared a few days
ago.
