scared pretty badly on last Saturday

out, the lighted lamp set fire to a lot of
papers filed on a wall hook, and before
being discovered, was blazing to tbe
ceiling. Timely action prevented a more
serious catastropbe.
A Wrong Impression. B y some
means or other, the impression has gone
abroad that tbe county were paying $1.50
for coyote scalps. This, perhaps, was
created through an error in some of the
Gazette's statements, which should bave
been 75 oents for scalps instead of 81.50.
Tbe party in question sold the pelt for
75 cents more realizing in all, $1.50. The

the bounty on this olass of wild animals
to 81, and onoougars and panthers to $2.
Burned Hat. Some cowardly sneak
burned about 14 tons of hay whioh was
stacked at tbe head of West Fork, be
longing to Byron Bernard, Wednesday
night of this week. Byron, like other
people, has bis share of enemies, and tbe
inoendiary is in all probability one of
them, but he's a mean, sneaking, cow
ardly, despicable foe wbo vents his enmi
ty in that fashion, and no legal punish
ment will be too severe for him if
oaught. Fossil Journal.

brother E. G. Grant, the former very

ing his place. The conoern with which Dr.
Grant is connected is known as the O.
W. B. Manufacturing Co., and th.-v are
meeting with marked sucoess.
Fine Timrer. Perhaps, the best tim.
ber growing in tbe Blue mountains oan
be found on Rock creek, in tbe vicinity
of Will Mallory's saw-mill. This class
of timber Mr. Mallory is using iu making
lumber wniob he delivering in Hepp-
nei all tbe way from $15 to a.JU per

"TudgeS had been sick only about two

four days that the maladv took a serious turn.
At the begin riinK of his illness he suffered from
diabetes and stomach disorder. Later the
kidneys refused to perform their functions and
he passed quietly away. Thus ended the life
of one of the most prominent men in Cali
fornia." Like thousands of others his un
timely death was tbe result of u eg letting early
symptom of kidney disease.
IF VOU

rangement of the kidneys or urinary organs,
don't delay proper treatment until you are
forced to give up your daily duties; dVn't
