PBINEVILLE IS BUSY
Bl'ILDISG ACTIVITY AND STREET
IMPROVEMENTS DEVELOP TOWN.
Ochoco Quicksilver Mines Are H Hi
Nevr Machinery Installed and
Will Be Reopened.
PBINEVILLE,- Or., Aug. 28. (Spe
cial.) The warm weather of the past
few months, whil it has had a ten
dency to send almost everyone away to
the mountains or the seashore, has
caused no cessation In the general
building and improvement development
of Prineville. A number of dwelling
and business buildings have been erect
ed or enlarged during the Summer and
announcement of several new struc
tures to be commenced Immediately,
have been made.
A contract was recently let for the
Improvement of First street from Main
to the west end of tha street, for the
laying of cement walks for h total dis
tance of six blocks, and the work will
be finished within the next 10 days.
These improvements are not due to
any especial boom, but are the result of
a natural demand for more and neces
sary space for dwelling- and business
purposes. As the carpenters and build
ers consider the Summer a slow time
of the year, it has givon them an op
portunity to keep the resident me
chanics in employment. t
The Ochoco quicksilver mines, which
gave promise of much development,
but have been practically closed down
for a long time, have assumed new
activity. E. S. Huckaby, chief clerk
in the Tax Collector's office of Mult
nomah County, has, with his brother,
become interested In these mints, and
after making an extensive examination
last month, shipped to the mines an
fcOOO-pound retort, for the purpose cf
reducing the cinnabar to merchantablo
quicksilver.
