A man who has four ■donkeys and a trapping outfit has been camped on Kean creek near the stage road, and has acted in a manner, which shows him to be de ranged. He put a teamster to flight the other day for presuming to speak to him, and when some parties came along with a band of stock and stopped for dinner and to let the stock browse and rest near his camp, he was enraged and made ugly threats about using his rifle. He is dan gerous, and may hurt somebody if he is not taken care of. Business Change. Hunsaker & Dodge have sold their grocery business and stock, in the Reeser block, to Geo. H. Currey, son of Col. Geo. B. Currey, who has already taken the management of the business. Mr. Currey will move to the store in John son’s block next door to O. H.

Judge, our enterpriijing saddle and harness manufacturer and dealer, in tends to open a branch store and shop in Linkville soon. The music by Baird s minstrel band on the streets last Wednesday was excellent, and was enjoyed more than the minstrel performance in the evening. All goods sold strictly for cash at O. H. Blount’s, and no money loaned. This accounts for bis low prices, which never fail to suit purchasers. x The game laws permit the killing of bucks between the 1st of July and the 1st of January, and many hunters are out in the mountains this week. < I The infantry company which has been stationci at Fort Klamath for some time took up line of march yesterday for Ash land.

Hutchings undertouk to drive from Klamath cunty to this valley by way of the Rogue River road last week,but found that he could not get through the snow on the summit, where it is still lying in banks from eight to ten feet deep. Frank Davis, who was in Ashland a number of months last year, being em ployed for a time at the saw mill up the creek, went down into Shasta county I prospecting and struck a quartz lead which ne has just sold for several thousand dol lars. He returned to town one day last week. The dry weather has spoiled the ox cellent prospects for grain which cheered the farmers in this valley in the spring, and much of the late-sown crop has been or will be cut for hay. This brings down the price of hay to from 84 to $6 per ton in the field in different sections of tho county. The celebrations here and at Grant’s Pass were arranged so that people of the two places might attend both. Anumberof Grant's Pass people will take advantage of this and visit Ashland to-morrow, and a delegation from this placo will return the visit next Monday, when the cele bration occurs there. The McKanlass minstrel troupe did not play in Ashland last Saturday even ing, owing to the failuie to secure an audience, the day being so near that of the appearance of the Baird troupe, which was so much larger and offered su perior attractions. McKanlass played to good houses in California and in Lake and Klamath counties, this state. J. C. Whipp, of the Jacksonville mar ble works, made an assignment to A. H. Maegly last week for the benefit of his creditors. The Sentinel says: “His lia bilities amount to something between 82,000 and 83,000 while his assets figure up near $4,000. His inability to collect money due him for work is said to be the cause of his failure and he expects to come out all right before long.” L. C. Coleman, of Oakland, Cal., for merly of Jacksonville, who holds mort gages to a large amount iu this county, announced some time ago that he would pay taxes only upon one-half the face and assessed value of tho mortgages, and contest in the courts tho right of tho county to collect the other half. He has since concluded, however, not to try to demolish the Oregon laws, and last week paid his taxes in full. Says the Sentinel of last Saturday. Since the political excitement has died out several of our business men are again agitating the project for building a branch railroad from Jacksonville to Medford or Central Point. The esti mated cost of building and equipping the road is from 816.000 to 817,000 and it is believed that the road will pay run ning expenses from the start. If such can be done the road should be pushed through at once. A handsome trombone tenor horu, silver and gold mounted, was received by the Ashland Band yesterday from the East, making a valuable addition to the list of instruments owned by tho band. There are two instruments of this pattern now in the band, One used by Goorgo Eubanks and the other by R. T. Vining. The boys hope to have a complete set of that kind in time, and will purchase them as fast as they can raise the money. Dist. Att. Kent, as attorney for a mer cantile firm in Lane county, levied an at tachment yesterday upon five head of horses and other personal property of G. G. Stacy, (from Lane county,) who was traveling with his family toward Califor nia. Stacy was camped a mile or two south of town, and Mr. Kent roused constable Taylor and took possession of the property about 3 o’clock A. M., fear; Ing to find his man “on tho wing” after daylight. Supt. J. Brandt, of the O. & C. R., R., was out at the Wagner creek mines again the Grst of the week, and the ma chinery of the quartz mill not being ad justed to suit him ho took off his coat and went to work to put it in fix. Mr. Brandt is a practical machinist and can see through a quartz mill as well as a lo comotive. A large number of people from this valley went on the excursion to Portland and the ocean this week. Twenty-one went from Ashland and twenty-nine from Jacksonville and Medford. Among those from this place were Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Ayers, Mr. and Mrs. J. O. C. Wimer, W. I. Nichols and son, Misses Julia and Amanda Goodyear, Nellie and Dotia Russell, Lida and Tillie Reeser, Eugenia Farnharm and Corda Smith, Mrs. C. T. Wagner of Portland, Prof. Sweet and Messrs. Clarence Farnham, Geo. Hill and Jas. Cook. Mr. J. T. Arant, of Klamath county, came in the first of the week with his wife and one of their youngest boys, who went on to the Umpqua valley to look after the improvement of their farm in Douglas county. Mr. Arant started back to Klamath county Wednesday morning. In answer to inquiries about his trip to Florida last winter, Mr. Arant said ho found no attraction for him in the land of flowers and oranges. The pictures of life amid the orange groves and of for tunes easily made there are very highly colored, indeed. He prefers Oregon to Florida all the time. Mr. Scott, editor, Mr. Pittock, busi ness manager, and Jerry Colwell, city reporter of the Oregonian, visited Jack- son county the first of the week. They arrived in Ashland Sunday morning, took a carriage here for the Sterling hy draulic mines the same day, and return ed hither through Jacksonville and Med ford Monday afternoon. Mr. Irvin, manager of the paper mill on tlic Colum bia and of the Portland Lime Works, was also one of the party. The geutle- 1 men were much interested in the evi dences of improvement and enterprise to be seen in Ashland. They started for Portland on Monday evening. I At the race-track near Yreka Jas. Southerland is training the noted “Si- phon,” 6 years old, who had such a closo contest with the Hambeltonian mare, “Jane L” at Portland one year ago. Al. i Peacock has in charge L. Swan's Alta, 6 years old; McDonough's Sleepy Kate, 7 years old; Delia H., 3 years old, and the 2 year-old fillies Susie H. and Atlanta. He has Alta in fine trotting condition, and brought her down to a mile in one trial in 2.27. Church street is in a badly demon1.’¡zed condition and needs some attention. It is hardly passable for teams in some places, owing to the deep gullies. The building of the new sidewalk for the hall has narrowed the driveway so that there is no chance to avoid the bad places. It will be more traveled now than ever be I fore, especially at night, and should be at least placed in such condition that the town will net be liable to an action for damages from some accident. !

As tho course of the canyon is directly across the ledge it allows the tunnels to be run directly through and along the ledge from the surface of the hillside to tho inter section of the tunnel. The shaft will now be sunk to a depth of about 190 feet, and another and longer tunnel started further down the hill to strike the shaft at that level. The new pulleys needed have been put up in the mill, which is now running at nearlj’ its full capacity. C. K. Baeunde yesterday bought the quartz machinery owned by Messrs. Beekman and Klippel and Mr. Klippel will go to San Fraucisco in a few days to get the balance of the machinery re quired to make a. first-class ten stamp mill to be placed in position and ready for work m tlire . niontlis. The site selected for the mill is where the old Bauten mill formerly stood Mr. Baeutnle having purchased the ground and water right of Mr. Curtis and Pape yesterday. He has an excellent prospect from his mines close by and by the time the mill is run ning will have enough rock on the dump to run right along. Mr. B. s father and brother will arrive in a few days and will assist in the management of the mill and mine. —[Sentinel J une 26. It is estimated that some 830,000 worth of gold will be taken out of the hydraulic mines of Wimer & Son at Waldo this year. The Brown quartz mill at the Swinden ledge near Gold Hill made a clean up last week after running fifty tons of rock, and the result was nearly 8500 in gold— showing about 810 to the ton. This is an excellent yield for rock that is easily and cheaply mined and a ledge so favora bly situated. Anson Hough, of Blackberry, Ills,, says he owes his life to Gilmore's Magnetic Elixir. Try it.

Peculiar in the combination, proportion, and preparation of its ingredients, peculiar in the extreme care with which it is put up. Hood's Sarsaparilla accomplishes cures where other preparations entirely fail. Pecu i liar in the unequalled good name it has made at home, which is a “tower of strength abroad,” peculiar in the phenomenal sales it has attained, Hood's Sarsaparilla is the most popular and successful medicine before the public today for purifying the blood, giving strength, creating an appetite. “1 suffered from wakefulness and low spirits, and also had eczema on the back of my head and neck, which was very annoying. I took one bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla, and I have received so much benefit that I am very grateful, and I am always glad to speak a good word tor this medicine.” M bs . J. 8.

The Portland News of last Friday says: “The three boats for the Crater lake surveying party have been finished and the sounding apparatus, which is be ing made at Smith & Watson’s iron works, will be fitted into otic of them to day. On Monday the boats will bo brought to Ball's boat house, at the foot of Stark, and on that evening those who desire to inspect them may do so. Tuesday tho boats will bo loaded on the train and taken to Ashland. Captain Dutton has made a contract for the hauling of tho boats from Ashland to the lake, via Linkville and Fort Klam ath, a distance of about 120 miles. On arriving at the lake the next thing in order will be to lower the boats to the water over craggy and irregular cliffs 1,- 000 to 1,500 feet high. If the cliffs were perfectly perpendicular tho task would be a much easier one, but as it is it forms ! the hardest part of the trip.” ! Thursday’s Oregonian had the follow ing: “Yesterday the boats built here for use of the United States Geodetic- survey in measurin'' Crater lake were hauled down to Ball’s boat house, foot i of Stark street, where they attracted much attention. Tho principal boat is twenty-six feet long, fivo feet six niches lieam and two feet depth. It is a very substantial lap streak boat, built of oak and spruce and almost fit for a life boat. W. Ingate Ball was the builder. This has tho apparatus of making soundings. Tho led line is of piano wire, 2000 feet long, and the lead weighs forty pounds. The wire is wound on a reel near the bow, and then passes over what may be called a tension wheel or drum, two feet in diameter, placed amidships. Two beams project over the stern, and be tween these there is a wheel whose axle turns the works of an odometer. This is a watchlike instrument for noting the number of revolutions made by tho wheel, and thus the length of line paid out. The reel and the tension drum have cranks, and it requires a great deal of muscle to lift a forty-pound lead that is i sunk a quarter of a mile or more in the water. The two other boats are fine skiffs, respectively fourteen and fifteen feet long. They will start south this morning. RELIGIOUS NOTICES. MARRIED.
