THE ASHLAND TIDINGS FRIDAY JAN. 16, ISSO. L*ln»-« of Travel The O. A C.stages leave Ashland as fol lows: Going north, at 7 a . m . ; going south, at 6 p. M. On H. F. Philips’ Linkville line stages leave every morning at 5 o’clock, con necting at Linkville with hacks for Lakeview and Fort Klamath. Four- horse stage on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. S ensible A dvice .—You are asked everybody through the columns of your newspajiers, and by your druggists,to use something for your kidneys that you know nothing about, and you get dis couraged .«¡»ending your money. But this 8<>rt of business is at an end since the introduction of the celebrated Ore gon Kidney Tea. Recommended by all. H as L ost a F riend —The Crescent City Courier says that Mr. D. Pomeroy, who was drowned on the ill fated schoon er bearing his name, was on Lis way to Kan Francisco for the purpose of enlist ing the aid of business men of that city in the wagon road enterprise. From his influence and energy wo feel satisfied there is little doubt that he would have greatly advanced the interests of the en terprise, and in his death the ¡»reject has lost an earnest advocate. LOCAL BREVITIES. Lakeview has been having more fright from fire. The “Champions of Honor” at Lake view now number over sixty. Sixteen applicants were admitted to the Oregon bar by the Supreme Court last week. The Republican State Central Com mittee has been called to meet at Salem February* 18th. Joe. Wisdom, of Butte creek, shot thirteen quail’s heads off in fourteen ! shots on Christmas day. It is reported that new quarters are to be built for tho enlisted men at Fort Klamath post next spring. “Heaven lies about us in our infancy,” says the poet. Yes, and neighbors lie about us when we grow up.— [Ex. There are three brass bands in Albany, one of which, having nine pieces, was re cently organized by young ladies. I The schools have been poorly attended during the past week, so many of the students being sick. We have heard of none being seriously ill, but many have bad colds, and some are supposed to have the measles. Considerable reduction has been made in the tariff on freight from San Fran cisco to Reading. General merchandise has been reduced from 60cts. to 76ct per hundred from the Bay, and from 76cts. to 64cts. from Sacramento. Lieut. Shelton, Co. L. 1st Cavalry, passed through Ashland last Saturday on his way from Fort Klamath to Walla Walla, whither lie had been summoned by the intelligence that his wife, who has been visiting there, is very ill. The snow was 14 inches deep and the thermometer 24’ below zero in Grant county on the 27th lilt. The Grant county News says that if the weather con tinues six weeks 20,000 head of cattle will die in that county of starvation. T he O verland R oads .—When Ab. Giddings arrived with the stage from the south last Sunday lie reported that on the other aide of the Siskiyou mountains the snow was drifted to the depth of ten or fifteen feet in many places on the road. The mail from Yreka was brought over the mountains either on a bob-sled or on horse back, and the carrier was two days and a half and two nights in making the distance from Yreka io Barron’s, about 40 miles. No mail from a greater dis tance than Yreka was brought. Although the terrible roads nrtde slow time neces sary, there Was no impassable barrier to the stage travel in the Oregon portion of the route, and the mails came with tol erable regularity from the north. T ornado at P ortland .—A terrible wind storm visited Portland last Friday, doing great damage to property. The wind reached a velocity of 50 miles an hour, the highest ever known there, and many buildings were blown down, while the streets were strewn with the frag ments of chimneys, business signs, ¡»or- tions of foofs, sky lights, etc. The Bremer beer hull was blown down and six men were buried in the ruins. The proprietor, Harry Bremer, was instantly killed, one of the others had a leg badly crushed, one had his foot mashed and the others were but slightly hurt. One new church was demolished, and the spires of two others were blown down. The Bee, says that every building in the city, brick, Btone or Wood, was shaken to its foundation. The losses from damages sustained will aggregate a large sum. H omestead N otices .—Settlers can have their notices of final proof pub lished in the T idings at the lowest rates by simply requesting the officers of the Land Office to send them to us. S udden D eath Lieut. Shelton, Co L. 1st Cavalry, who was en route from Ft. Klamath to Walla Walla, died sud denly in the stage when near Canyonville one night this week. Before entering the canyon the driver had spoken to him and he was all right, and when the stage stopped at the station he was found dead. M e liave not learned what disposition was made of the remains, or any other particulars. P hotographic .—Notice the advertise ment of J. \\. Riggs, in another column. Mr. Riggs claims to take the best pictures that may be had in Southern Oregon,and liis past reputation fully sustains his claim. His new gallery is a great improvement over any lie lias had before, and the work which he has already done there is his best recommendation. He has been kept quite busy since opening his new rooms, notwithstanding tho cloudy weather. Items from Ui<f Batt». Awful roads, Snowing while I write. W e are glad it is lean year.

They have leased the steam mill of J, P. Parker, and since they are energetic men we expect to see lumber turned out by the wholesale next year. Big Butte settlement commences about 26 miles northeast of Jacksonville, and is scattered over a large precinct; about 30 legal voters at ¡»resent; but they will be augmented in numbers when the mills commence business in the spring. There are about 60 children that will draw school money, and about three times that number who will not draw money. We have two good saw mills. Lumbering, stock-raising, shingle and clapboard-mak ing are the principal pursuits. The cit izens are generally industrious. Have a post-office but no Btore.
