More land is being located in East ern Oregon than for many years past. During February there were 60 origi nal homestead filings received at the land office here, and for the first 15 days of this month there have been 50 filings. Evidently home seekers are finding plenty of location in this sec tion. Nearly every day freight passes through The Dalles going to Wasco, from whence it will be shipoed to Antelope. There must be something wrong with our roads when this thing occurs. Isn't it about time The Dalles as looking to the improvement of roads so that it will retain its forward ing business? The school election yesterday passed off quietly, and a comparatively light vote was cast, only 94 voters having exercised their right of - suffrage. There was no contest, Dr. O. D. Doane, being the only candidate for director and Geo. P. Morgan the only one for clerk. Both gentlemen have served the district well and faithfully, and it would have been useless for anyone to have entered into the contest. County Clerk Kelsay returned last evening from quite an extended trip over the country, having been in the Antelope country during the past two weeks. He says the Antelope sheep men are expecting a large increase to their flocks this spring and also antici pate the wool clip will be large. Sheep hav wintered exceptionally well, and are at present in fine con dition. Grass on the ranges is good at present, but the ground is beginning to get quite dry, and unless there id an abundance of rain flock-masters will have to take their sheep to the mountains very early this year. Barned to Death. The five-year old daughter of Mr, and Mrs. Albert Ballance, who live near Long Creek, met with a terrible death by burning last Saturday even log. Mr. Ballance was away from home freighting on the road from Pendleton, and Mrs. 'dallance had left her three daughters, aged respectively 8, 5, and 3 years, at the house while she went to the barn to milk the cows. Soon she heard screams, and saw her eldest daughter running toward her. crying, "sister is burding up." With all possible haste the mother rushed to the house, to find her little daughter wrapt in flames. She removed its clothing as rapidly as possible, but not uatil its hands and body were burned in a most shocking manner, its little hands being burned almost to a crisp in its frantic efforts to extinguish the flames. Medical aid wa3 sent for, and everything possible done to re' lieve the little one's sufferings, but notwithstanding all this, at 8 o'clock Sundav mornin? it died in proatacmnv accident wascaused.it ia supposed by the little one attempting to put a stick of wood in the stove, when its clothing caught fire. A Worthy Enterprise. The lady members of the public library met at the residence of Wm. Michell last evening and discussed the matter of raising - funds for the pur pose of purchasing a suitable number of reference and standard works. These books are required in order that the library may more nearly meet the needs of the public. It ia claimed that the monthly payments bring in a suffl cient amount for the purchasing of all worthy late books, but no library is complete without works of reference and no person is wail read without perfect - familiarity with standard authors. So to meet this need the ladies have advised a unique plan and one that promises to be highly success' ful. It is their purpose to get out the weakly edition of one of the local papers to be known as the woman's edition. The following staff was elect ed: Editor-in-chief, Mrs. W. H. Mans field; associate editors, Rose Michell and Bessie Lang; business manager. Mrs. A. R. Thompson. The city edi tors and secretary will be chosen by the staff. This paper will be In every respect a worthy edition comprising some thirty pages of reading matter and advertisements. A committee comprised of six ladies has been select ed to solicit ads. and it is to be hoped this laudable undertaking may meet with the success it deserves. Take Laxative Brorao Quinine Tab lets.

The more development work done in the Great Northern mine near Canyon City, the more evident it is that the "mother lode" of that- once rich placer cimp has been found. The Canyon City news says of the mine: Wednesday of last week was the banner day in the Great Northern miue near town. The News has already mentioned the $792 nugget taken out in the forenoon of that day. In the afternoon there was taken out a large quantity of gold that was sack ed up and not washed. The estimated value of Wednesday's yield was $1,500. The nine gallons of snow water that had been prepared was all used up, and no gold waa washed out on Thurs day. Friday's washings amounted to $228 and some cents, while the yield of Saturday footed up a little over $398. On Monday a couple of pans yielded $250, after which the Great Northern's owner announced a temporary shut down. A cessation of work in the Great Northern pay streak at this time would seem remarkable were the fact not explained that the pay streak ex tends downward as well as longitudin ally, and as it is growing richer and better toward the cenier of the earth Mr. Guker decided to prosecute work in that direction. To accomplish this he was compelled to abandon work in the pit until be could sins a perpen dicular shaft and erect a windlass to hoist the rich ore as well as the rock to be removed, to the surface. He is having this work done and in the mean time the rich seam of wire gold and nuggets remains covered up from the gaze of the too curious. Work is also progressing in the tun nel which ia being driven in toward the ledge. R. B. Clayton has charge of the tunnel, and the boys are making very good headway. L. Bowen is en gaged in burning a pit of charcoal. As soon as this is finished so that there will be plenty of fuel for the black smith shop an addition to the tunnel crew will be made and work will pro gress much more rapidly. The length of the tunnel in -order to cross-cut the ledge will be about 150 feet. Only about thirty feet of this is completed, and many rich stringers or seams of quartz have been encountered already. It will take at least thirty days longer to complete the tunnel, but the shaft and hoist will be in readiness, for work to be resumed on the pay seam at a much earlier date. A Complete Lighting; System. An Eagle Automatic Acetylene lighting system has been put in the new St. Peter's church, and apparently ia one of the most complete and inex pensive systems for lighting that has yet been invented. The light is pro duced from gas that is generated by an apparently simple, apparatus, by the action of water upon carbide, a sub stance made of coal, lime and sulphur. After the gas is generated it is passed through two large tanks of water, to be purified, and the tanks are so ar ranged that they work automatically and permit just the amount of gas gen erated that ia consumed. In the en tiro building there are 30 lights, 25 in the auditorium, four in the basement and one in the ent-ance. Each of these furnishes three times as much light as a 16-candle power elec tric burner,' and the whole 30 lights can be run at an expense of less than 25 cents an hour. The system has been thoroughly tested, and has proven to be perfect throughout. Karl's Clover Root Tea is a pleasant laxative. Regulates the bowels, puri fies the blood.

CervallU and Eastern Railroad Company Issues Bonds. Indications are now favorable that the old Oregon Pacific, which has un dergone numerous changes and had such a checkered career, may yet be' come a railroad of some prominence though it will be under a new name and management, Mr. Hammond hav ing recently re incorporated the prop' erty under the name of the Corvallls and the Eastern. The mortgage for the issuance of the first mortgage bonds of the company has been filed for record in Benton county. It bears the date of January 26, 1S98, and is made in favor of the Central Trust company, of New York. It covers railroad lines and appurtanences, con structed as follows: Beginning at a point on Yaquina bay and extending to the boundary line between Oregon and Idaho at or near Snake river in Malheur county, and from a suitable point or junction with said first named line east of the summit of the Cascade range, in southerly direction by some conven ient route to the boundary line be tween the states of Oregon and Califor nia, in Klamath or Lake county, to gether with 341 miles of telegraph iine from Yaquina to Detroit, and also all railroad equipment. The instrument covers all railroad lines constructed or acquired until such railway shall amount in the agro- gate to 750 miles. The aggregate amount to be issued, it is stipulated, shall not exceed $11, 250.000, in first-mortgage bonds, cf $1,000 each. When these bonds are floated Mr. Hammond will be in position to push the work of construction toward the eastern boundary of the state, through the Prineville country. The Dalles has more to fear from this road than '.any that is now proposed. "Why suffer with coughs, colds, and a grippe when Laxative Bromo Quine line will cure you in on day.
