A letter to this office from Mr.
Horcourt, who was in Cottage
Grove last week, conveys the in
formation that he is meeting with
unexampled success in raising
funds to advertise the Southern
Oregon mines in "Oregon's Re
sources," a pamphlet to be pub
llahcd for free distribution at the
Pan-American Imposition. In the
letter he says: "I do most sincere
ly hope that Cottage Grove will
look at the niattcr with different
eyes from those I found when
there the other day. Surely the
community can not afford to neg
lect this opportunity of portraying
its advantages to so ninny tlious-
nuds of those who will visit liuffalo
the coming summer,"

Master Harold Howard met with
a painful accident last Sunday,
.vhilc upon the Hutte near town
He attempted to run down, when
lie fell head long. It is said bv
parties who witnessed his rapid de
scent that he rolled nearly fifty feet
when he fell. He was severely cut
just above the left eye blow, by
coming in contact with a sharp rock
or snag. Mrs. J. M. Durham was
near the unfortunate boy when he
stopped rolling mid nssisted him to
arise and bound up his wound.
Attorney Kby soon arrived and
through his kindness the little fel
low was soon home, where Dr. Job
dressed his wound. It was n nar
row escape for the eye but a miss
is as good as a mile, and barring n
few bruises, an ugly gash over the
eye and a sore head, he is not much
the worse for wear.

The members of Juvenilis Lodge
No. 48, Knights of Pythias, will
have occasion to lehienibcr Inst
Wednesday night for a long time,
as it was made one of the plciisnutcst
evenings in the history of the lodge.
Arrangements had been made to do
work in cacli of the tlireo ranks,
nud in consideration thereof invita
tions were scut out to Eugene, Drain
nud Roscbttig lodges to be present.
Knch lodge was represented Drain
even responding by bringing along
a candidate conferring' the honor of
initiation upon Juvcutus lodge. A
neat spread wns arranged for awi
during the evening the members
and visiting brcthcru did justice to
it, and all pronounced the events of
the evening well worthy of atten
dance. Another happy feature of the
evening was the presence of a dis
tinguished guest Robt.T. Hale, Past
Grand Chancclor of the State of
New York, who is now traveling
in the interest of the Pythian Voice,
published at Kansas city. Missouri,
which is exclusively devoted to the
K. of P. work. Brother Hale is not
only a fluent speaker but he is a
I'ythinn brother from crown to feet
and when he speaks upon subjects
pertaining to his beloved order he
warms the heart of every man in
hearing of his voice, carrying con
viction with' every word uttered.
Visiting members present were:
P. G. C., Hale, of New York;
Knight Gahriclson, Salem; Knights
Yoron, Dunbar, Winter, Brady,
Holdcit, Holden, Vincent, Hush-
nell, Nicklcn, Frakcs, and Pisk, of
Eugene. Knights Kent, Spauld
ing, Schapers, Koberts, Fegles,
Applcgatc, Clements, Looncy, and
Kuykeudall, of Drain.
HARD I.UCK.
A member of the hobo element
had hard luck "in procurinir his
morning "feed" in Cottage Grove
Tuesday morning. A Nugget man
watched him shamble up to the
kitchen door of five diffierent resi
dences in succession, and as many
times he was given the "marble
heart;' and whenjast .seen he bad
not been able to satisfy the toner
man. He was a typical hobo, fairly
well dressed in clothes some of
which may have been borrowed for
me occasion, lie would blip up
always on the oil side of the house,
avoiding walks as much ns possible
and when it wns convenient in the
mutter of saving steps would jump
the fence instead of going n little
farther and entering the gateway.
He would tap softly at the kitchen
door and upon response from the
occupant of the house, seemed to
forget to ask for work but met the
inquiring face with this stereotyped
sentence: "Please mum, can't you
give a hungry man a bite to eat?"
Pive times in succession he went
away without touching a heart, and
more than likely his idea of charity
of the human soul received a crush
ing shock. Another noticeable
thing abaut themethod of this rep
resentative of trampdom was his
disregard for lawns nud inclination
to leave front. gates open. If tramps
were given the discouragement
tendered this one, a good per cent
of this class of humanity might be
induced to go to work.

Messrs Felix Currin and the Mos-
by brothers brought tb town Sun
day afternoon a cougcr which they
had captured near the Currin farm
east of this city. In the chase the
varmint was wounded in the foot
and captured alive. The hunters
roped him and started to town with
him, intending to turn him loose
with the dogs and treat the town
people to a real conger fight, but
he was tied so .tightly that he was
choked to death bringing him in.
Dr. Job purchased the animal with
the-view of making a rug of the
skin.
