Mc Bride of Eddyville while on his re turn from the residence of A. L. Chitwood. His load was of chit tim bark and drawn by a team, one horse of which was, to say the least, eccentric. When about 1 y2 miles on his journey this aforesaid horse, without warning and with malicious intent, threw up head and tail, bolted at right angles with the road and more quickly than it knew landed in a water ditch some eight feet wide and five feet deep. The momentum drove the tongue of the wagon firmly into the oppo site bank and securely held both horses in the stream un Elk City Items. Sea trout on bill of fare at the Elk City Hotel. J. H. Ross called the first of the week. Col. F. J. Parker arrived Satur day for a few days vacation at the ranch. S. H.

Work at the Bevens quarry is making times quite lively about our burg just now, and from ap pearances they are in for business. Several families come down from the vicinity of Chitwood Saturday evening and spent Sunday at the Sulphur Spring on Col. Parkers ranch. O. C. Simpson arrived the last of the week from Eastern Oregon. Owen is in poor health. Mrs. Pewther fo Portlend, and Mr. and Mrs. Adams of Lebanon, are guests at the Elk City Hotel. M. W.

Who says prosperity hasn't struck Lincoln county. K. C. Birds on Drift Creek. The other day as I was at Glen postoffice I was shown a somewhat curious bird of beautiful plumage. J It was perched on a piece of card j board. I wa shown it by S. J. I Wilhoit, the postmaster, whose j property I presume it was.

He went i ' Hawaii and Hawaiins. A large arid delighted audience attended the lecture on "Our New Possessions in the Pacific Seas," given by Mr. Ben Bruns on last Saturday night. Mr. Bruns is an able speaker and his word pictures of his travels through the "Paradise of the Pacific" and his description of the customs and habits of the original inhabitants of these far famed isles was interesting to the extreme and thoroughly enjoyed by those present. Not the least enjoyable part of the program were the Hawaiin songs which he sang in an accom plished manner, showing that be sides being a finished lecturer he is also a singer of no mean ability. Mr. Bruns expects to visit the Islands again this winter and also extend his tour to take in Samoa, Tahiti and perhaps the Philip pines. - dalado Sayings. Gardens are very fair this year. Haying is all over, and every farm er is smiling at the big barns full of nice hay. The weather is fine for the chit tim peelers, and everybody is rush ing the work along with a hearty good will. All the ladies have concluded that this was the ideal weather for a picnic, and they named deer creek for the place to meet, as there is a fine sulphur spring and splendid shade trees there. I will say for all parties concerned that we had a fine time and all the chicken pie and several kinds of as good cake as good cooks can make with plenty other good things. We ate dinner and supper and everybody went home with a kind feeling for his neighbor, and a promise of another picnic in the near future. While there the young people persuaded Mrs. Bancroft to give a party, which will be on Friday, August 18th. Everybody that wants an enjoyable time come and be happy. Will have a picnic supper.

Fred Locklev, Jr., is at Newport for a thirty days' outing, says the Salem Statesman, and on Saturday last, succeeded in bringing 530 fish out of the famous Yaquina bay, on whose banks that city is located. Now, if Fred keeps that rate up during the full time of his furlough from the duties as postal carrier in the Capital City, just think what an enormous amount of the finny tribe he will have to dispose of about 15,000 and at 1 cent a pound, if he sells them, each fish weighing four pounds, he will have a small Klondike. ing the1 summer season, was real cause of the happenstance. the Real Estate Cheap.

I am the mother of eight children and have had a great deal of ex perience with medicines. Last summer my little daughter had the dysentery in its "worst form. We thought she would die. I tried everything I could think of, but nothing seemed to do her any good. I saw by an advertisement in our paper that Chambei Iain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was highly recommended and sent and got a bottle at once. It prov ed to be one of the very best medi cines we ever had in the house. It saved my little daughter's life. I am anxious for every mother to know what an excellent medicine it is. Had I known it at first it would have saved me a great deal of anxiety and my little daugter much suffering. Yours truly, Mrs. Geo. F. Burdick, Liberty, R. I. For sale by O. O. Krogstad, Druggist.
