He lost the trail and was four and a half days without anything to eat. though owing to the weather, ho never suf fered from thirst, and would have been moro comfortalle hud ho been provided with blankets and matches. In his wanderings ho camo to Coal creek and found a cabin, down the chimney of which ho descended m search of food hut found nono. He filially built a raft and floated down the creek to the Neha leni river, where he found an Indian ranch and, probably fortunately for him, a small supply of provi-ions as in his famished state ho would certainly havo eaten cnouitli to have killed him. In his travels before reaching tho creek ho had torn nearly all the clothes off him, and ho was afraid tu leave the creek to hunt for the trail. The Indians bronght him to a place win re hi waut3 were supplied, and ho l.a returned home. It is safe to wager ho will never undertake to trivel alone again through the woods of Tillamook. tieodhrrvtrr liy A hpeelal. On Saturday evening Special Police Officer S.

Colts should bo broken toharncss at three years old, and used iu light work for two years, when they will bceomo matured and fit for full work. If they aro used for hard service before their joints become settled, or surrounded by a full-grown tcxturo of muscle and sinews to support them, they aro liable to become strained, causing spavins, or bony enlargements, that will destroy their future usefulness. Any imbecile can break down the colt ; but it requires good sense to build them up after they have been crippled by ig norant taskmastea3. It is not worth whilo to risk the experiment of converting sound colts into invalids, when they will livo longer and perform moro service if suffered to ripen into tbo full-matured horse before being put to nar.l work. Corr. Lire-Stock 'Journal. A honey producer in New England is said to havo patented an invention for the protes tion of bees from tho attacks of tho honey- moth, which enters the hives at night and rifles tho stores. Tho idea rose out of his fa miliarity with the daily routine, not' of bees only, but of hens. Hens, ho observed, retire to rest rnily; bees 'seek repose earlier still. No sooner aro they sunk in slumber than the moth steels into t'.teir abodo and devours the produce of their toil. Ho has now built a Btand of hives with a hen house abive it. The bees first betake themselves to their dwellings anil sottlo themselves for the night. Iho hens then come homo to roost on their perch, and, as they take their places upon it, their weight sets uomo simple mechanism to work, which at onco shuts down tho doors of all the hives. When the day dawns, however, the hens leave their roosts and tho removal of their weight from tho perch raises the hivo doors and gives egress to tho bees in time for their morning's work.

Keller of Nevada putting several questions regording thii portion of the State, and have concluded to answer his queries in as fow words as possiblo in tho ATews. TnE CLIMATE Is mild and tho temperature ovon, about tho samo amount of clothtng being wont all tho year round. During the Winter months it rains a good deal, but the) rain is warm and is much preferable to the heavy falls of snow in the Eastern States.' Tho averago temperature dur ing the Spring, Summer and Autumn u about G5 "degrees abovo zero, while dur ing the Winter it is about 45, and ii scarcely ever below tho freezing point. TIIE SOIL A.long the foot hills, creeks and rivem Is the richest in tho world, and produce! abundantly. The hills aro principally covered with fir, spruce and cedar tim ber and in many places coal is found in largo quantities! Most of tho bottom lands were formerly covered with alder, maple, myrtle and an underbrush, bu a great many acres have been cleared and are now vftluablo farms. On tho COQUILI.E niVEB Farms with but littlo improvements can bo purchased at a very reasonable price, but the improved farms aro hold at re spectable figures. There ore threo grist mills on the Coquillo river and the ma chinery for another was consumed by tiro last week, which wo presume will be reconstructed, There ate also four saw mills in active operation on the river. The entranco to tho Coquillfc is about 18 milea south ot Capo Aigo in this county, while tho entranco to Ooos B.iy is about a milo uorth of tho Caj-p. Salmon are caught in largo numbers on the Coquille while the salmon which enter tho bay except enough for market here, are per mitted to return to tho ocean from lack of enterprise. ON COOS BAY Four saw mills run steadily and ship a large quantity of lumber to San Fran cisco. Three vessels havo already been built hero this year, and ono is now being constructed at this place. Thero is also a stavo factory at Empire City. W have six coal mines on the bay, only ono which is at present shipping coal.oi account of the depression in tho prices and the high freights. coos iuvKn Ts a tributary to the bay and along iU banks are many very good farms, whick in the majority of cases, have be cleared and improved through the ener gy aud perseveranco of the present oc cupants, who have made for themselves comfortable homes and an easy means of subsistence with tho luxuiies whick a good farm affords. Fruit and vegeta bles are raised in abundance, and are su perior in sizo and quality to any pro duced in tho Eastern States. Largs crops of wheat, oats, barley and hay ar harvested yearly, and a generrl failurs of crops has not yet been recorded. Wages in tho logging camps range frots $40 to G0 per month and board to or dinary hands, during tho greater portion of Spring, Summer and Autumn, but in Winter most of tho camps are shut down and many of the, men work in the saw mills at low wages and very unsatisfactory time. lit conclusion if j on wish to settlo in this locality oome and judgo for yourself, what satisfies us may not suit you; stay a month or two, visit every portion of the county and when you find a location that" suit you, halt, and we'll guarantee that yon will be surrounded with good, honest and hospitable neighbors.- Coos Bay News.
