The nien are now em ployed on a heavy filling beyond Evans" slaughter house, near Reno, ou the line of Uie Central Pacific, and good progress is being made. The trestle wort Is under way, and the timber are fitting up Ih the yard at the Jejot. The tirst trestle will 1" pot In place xboct a mile and a half from Ren a TnE Storm. This time it is in Cal ifornia, that wonderful country whov Italian climate arc the theme of tune f ul poets, that has caught a Wrenching. Jn some places the water has been high r than ever before known and the lowest estimate put on the proliablc damage is a million dollars. Travel, xcept by water, has Ix-en seriously in terrupted by the loss of bridges and -washing away of railroad tracks. Thr immense rainfall will, however, Insure a heavy crop next year and couijien eate in a measure for the losses. Caxixe Sagacity.

Robert son, lot in AJdand. Consideration $41 50. Mail Tuornix. There Is a strong probability that mail service on the wrote from Ashland to Lakeview will be intcrropted for some time It appears that 11 untlcy, the original con tractor, has failed, conveniently, finding that the contract at his bid is a losing business. 2ow it remains to le seen whether sufficient security for the jer f ortnance of the contract was given by Huntley. If it was not, the Postal authorities are to blame; and if it was -girea-tlie Department vhoald force the suieties to come right up to the scratch acd carry the mails to the last minute. This is a matter that might well attract the attention of or representatives in "Washington, and we venture to say that If the law was enforced rigorously in a few instances, diere would be more stability in die mail service. Comiissioxnu's Com-. The regular February term of Commissioner's court was held at the Clerk's office on Wednesday and Thursday of this week and transacted the following business: Road Supervisors "W.

"ThcoreU cal" artists of that class would leave the world clothed as scantily as it was before fig leaves came into fashion. Now, that die Sacramento roads are flooded, it would look a little like busi ness, if the Postmaster of San Francis 00 would oblige the people ot isoutliern determination on tne part ot the mer Oregon and Northern California by mantile comtnunitv to help the people sending their letter mall by steamer to ' of the county who are unwilling to Portland. From there it would reach iBt by stage readily No Southern mail received in Yreka up to last night, and the time when through connection will be made, is amon: the things unknown. The dam of Messrs. Klippel & Kea ton, mining on Poorman's creek, was washed out last week and will delay ojierations in the mine for a short time. The fine little garden ranch of Mr Collins, at the mouth of Squaw creek, was, we hear, comp'etely destroyed in the breaking of the bulkheads in the lakes above. Those "oingto the inauguration ball at Washington are out of luck in not being able to get their transportation from Plymale. Animals that board at the Excelsior can never he .erauaded to go elsewhere. One of the children of J. PMcPan iel gave his parents quite a scare this week by suddenly disappearing. It was thought the little fellow had fallen in the well and a roe was procured, but Le turned up all right The demands for money! money! money! to keep the Columbia clear are so loud and incessant that it would, perhsps, lie better to bring the Treas ury West, turn the Columbia into it, sluice it out and have done with it The District School has again been closed for an indefinite length of time on account of the serious illness of the Principal, Prof. Merritt We are plwavd to 1 car of hii improvement, however, under tli3 care of l)r.

The child will be very grateful tor his return. Tne genial Sikes Worden, sutler at Ft, Klamath, w as in town in the earl) part of the week and, it is said, was "put through" by the Masonic chapter. At least Sikes looked ery subdued and Miys he will ncer select a gridiron for his escutcheon. Accounts from Eastern Oregon and the Yakima country agi-ee in placing the loss of cattle and sheep nearly as high as last winter. Some of the stock men in Waco count are reported to have Io-t eighty per cent, but the losses are probably exaggerated. Cass McPlier-on, oldest son of W. A. McPherson, living near Brigg's in Josejihis' county cut his foot most severely with an ax last woei vhile chopping. The bit of the ax struck the inst-p, almost hurrying itself and making a lid wound. We learn that none of the present Iioard of trustees will lie candidates for reelection. They say that they prefer to be on the outside and take a hand iu the "custing" themselves; not iu a profanr sense though, as thev want grumblers to know hoxv it is. The Klamnth river rose S2 feet nlwe low water inHrk during the last storm at Slartin's ferrv.

State Superintendent Po'well has ap pointed AJav, 20 and 21 for the holding f a teachers institute for Jo'-ejdiiiK county Wildervillfj Wing designated as the jmiiit where it will convene. The institute for this county will be hekl in Ashland, Jluy 25, 26 and 27. Among the badly damaged farms on ApjJegate are thoe of Mr. Clemens below Murphy creek, and Sain Cook 1m1ow Benedict's. The former is- ren dered neaily valueless so that its on nei intends abandoning it These parties are worthy, industrious people and the loss falls hrtav iiy on them. Another effott is Wing msde in Con gress for the establishment of a system of government telegraphy. It should 1m- etnlt)ished or the Postal de'iartment handed over to a corporation. Gov ernment can manage telegraphy as cheaply as it is done by the Erglish Government which has made it a suc cess. List week the indefatigable Garret made another effort to reach Waldo with the mails but found it impossible to jwoceed- farther than Kerbyville on account of high water. Bob has had a hard time this vv inter and a law that would impose a fine on him for not ac complishing impossible things is most unfair. The news from the different mining camps contains nothing special. Min ers aro generally working with full hei-ds of water and salisCotl that the storm Is over. Last week the Apple gate company cleaned up having a sat isfactary v ie'd hut the last freshet dam aged their ditch considerably, but they expect to be piping again soon. The San Francisco Bulletin figures the next Senate to stand 37 straight Republicans and 37 straight Demo crats, with Mahone of Virginia and Davis of Illinois go as you plea-e joli ticians. When the two latter vote one way with either party, they mako a majority, but should they divide Vice President Arthur will be the majority. The old road from Waldo to Ores cent City is so badly damaged bv washing, slides and loss of bridges that it will lie imjtossible to haul over it without an expenditure of money, suffi cient to build half of the proposed new road. The enquiries of our merchants as to terms of landing freight etc. will amount to nothing if we have to get our goods to Waldo by pack mules. The merchants here headed by Reanies Bros, have asked Johnson fc Malone what the lowest freight will be on goods landed in Crescent City, but have received no answer vet There seems a help themsulv es. We will publish the prospects when an answer is received. 311.M.MJ INTKLL.1UE.SCE r3ZMr Work is airain nroeressin? steadilr at the Sterling hydraulicTnine, having only been delayed a few days on ac count of slides into xthejditch.

The Coyote creek claim has been very much benefited by the freshet, the tailings that had accumulated for years having been completely swept avvay. The English fc Blue Gravel claims on Galice creek are now tuning stead ily again. Nelson Ilcsmer, of Foot's creek, re ports water plenty in that locality and miners jubilant over their prospects of an extended run.

Ihe attendance at the meeting of the Legion of Honor last Saturday ev ening w as v ery large, owing to the announcement that Mr. Dillon was to lie among the singers. The whole programme was well carried out and the double quartett "Sunrise" was uotablv good. A solo hy Mr. Dillon "Fneiids of my Youth,"' was sung wiih artitistic taste and feeling and nothing would satisfy the house but a reappear ance. Mr. Dillon then sing '"Lurrv O'Brien, accompanied by 31 r. Donegan on the piano, and convuhed the audi ence with laughter. The recitations by Miss Annie Bilger, Miss Trim aud Miss I'lvmale were excellent and, im'ce I the efforts of all concerned were most cred itable. Jame.s A. Canlvvell was again elected President and apKinted Miss Mspgie Linn, Mrs. Shipley and Miss Annie Bilger as the committee to ar range a programme for Siturday, Feb. 19th, when the next entertainment will be given. The la to committee are under special obligations to Mr. E. C Rrof fcs, one of our most accomplished v ocalits, for his assistance and to Mr. Adam Klippol, for the strategetic man ner in which he took up the collection, commencing at tlie rear of the hall, thus showing considerable experience and a good knowledge of human nature. Bi'LKHEAP Destroyed. The propri etors of the Squaw Like mining prop erty received information from W 111. Brodb-ck, this week, that tlte bulk heads at the outlet of the Squaw Lakes, umsI as a reservoir by die company. had given avvay under the immeuFC pressure of accuniulnteiTTwater. Mr. B. and Lannes Klippel were mining on Dividtnd bir, about two miles below the lower lake, and were aroused ibout 3 A M. by the pwring of the immense volume of water and the crashing and grinding of tlees and boulders swep' dovvn by the resUtless toirrn. Tiees two hundred feet in length were swept down the bed of the creak like matches, earning with them huge bould"rs that were turned over like marble and leaving behind a scene of Urrible des tiuctiun. The area of the lakes was ov er a square mile in extent, and the effect of a body of water, sixtcn feet iu depth and covering a mile squaie, suddenly breaking loose can be beltei imagined thandecribed. This accounts for the sudden rise in Applegate last week and the extraordiniuy turbid ap jvarance of that stream without anv spimrcnt cause. The damage to the 'iiining company will be quite heavy, hut they are plucky and will, no doubt, replace the bulkheads in the spring. Judge Valentine of tho Kansas Su prenii: Couit, in Smith vs. Rogers, soys: It is well settled that, in the absenco of statutes, a person is not en tiUed to the cu'toJy and earnings of stepchildien nor bound by ltvv to maintain them. Yet if a step fathei voluntarily assumes the care und sup port of a step child le stands "in loco parentis;" and the presnmp'ion is that they deal with each othrr as parent and child, aud not as master and ser vant; in which case the ordinary rule of parent and child will be held to ap pur s.;ia neither compensation for board is presumed oh tho one1 hand, nor for sen ices on the. otherhan. 1 it J.

Garrett, mail contracror on the Crescent City route, arrived here last evening bringing a through mail from the coast. It being impossih'e to cross Illinois river on the regular route, Mr. Garreit crossed the river in a skiff opposite Kerbyville, carrying the mail on his back to Waldo, fifteen miles, and back to Kerbv. Garrett deserves praise for his pluck and atten- i tion to duty as he is no', expected to deviate from the travelled road. Circuit Court Ilorkrt. Letter Uif.

The latest sensation that has struck Jacksonville is a skat ing mania. Don't imagine it is the good, old fashioned pastime on ice for there is no ice here, but be informed that a speculator has come to town with a dozen pair of roller skates and rented thcllolt hall and turned it into a "rink." Our young folks are struck after the exercise and aie working hard to convince themselves that it is funny and healthful so many of our joung people being invalids and searchers after any exercise they have to pay for. They all try it but the largest amount of fun is among the outsiders. Jim Birdsey, one of our most graceful young men, weighing about two hundred, tried it a little. Buckling on tho rollers he gave a lunge ami asked the audience if they heard any thing drop. Rising, and lioising himself, life a Roman gadiator, for the final struggle he lunged again but his feet went a little the fastest and Jim sat down where thero was no cushion. This time he asked the by standers if somebody couldn't oblige him by laughing a little and then he went heme for repairs. This is the experience of moat of the skaters; ex cept tint they generally sit down or rest on their noses wlibout any re gaid whatever to grace or convenience; generally being in a hurry. The ncisr is delightful beifig a fair cross be tween a boiler maker's yard nnd pan demonium the latter "i-tnim" predom inating. The link is a good thing, it keeps the boys out of mischief and will run its cour.e just like the measles let it run. DirnccLT Travel. Some idea of the difficulty of travel during our late storms may bu had by in terviewing Wm. Patterson and J. O. V. Wimer, lately returned from Waldo. These gentlemen vveie about tivn days making sixty mi'es and their descrip tion of their passage of Althome and Sucker cieeks reminds one of the r.d ventures of the erly pioneers. These twostruams join before reaching tht Illinois liroe and they were advised to cress them both cbove the forks. Reaching Althouse they fcund a footlog upon which they dossed, swimming their homes and then dragging thei wa.:on in o tin wo"oi cutrent with 1 long rope. Afer turning their wagon over twice in the sli earn thy lauded it and leached Sucker creek only to find .that the only way thev could get the wagon across was 10 take it to pieces and cairy it over a rickety fcot-log. After a half day' severe labor they succeeded in doing so nnd reached home wheie they registered 11 solemn vow never to be caught out in an Oiegon storm again. The following is from the Yreka Journal of tho 9th. Mr. Roseveare, will be remembered as a druggist iu the employment of Robb k Kalilerand a very quiet ami worthy young gentle man: "Robt Roseveare, ' the well known druggist at Red Uluff, died on the 30:h ult. He was the accomplished correshoudent of the Red lilulVPenpleV Cause during his trips to Strawberry Valley and McCloud river in quest of his health. Ho also resided some years ago at Jacksonville, Ogn., and his wife was formerly Miss Lutitia K. Eckel son, of Jacksonville. Ho v-as but 3C years of ago, a member of tlm I. O. O. F. and A. O.
