When it wns generally known Inst week that the City Council lmil panted nn ordinance declaring it "unlawful for any person or jier sons firm or corporations to keep open auv shop, grocer v, ball nllc , billiard room, card room, tippling home, or other plare of husiuci't," i all kinds of Hxxulaliou wns in dulged in 011 the start, and many comments of a nature unconpll meutary to the promoters of the scheme wetc heard. Some were of the opinion, that it was class legls Islatiou. Others thought, and it would appear that the majority of the buslii :ss class of the city is of tills view, that it was a peice of foolishness on the part of the City : Council to be iullltcnced to passi .such an ordinance. Many were In favor of opening tip regardless of the ordinance anil righting tliej issue to 11 finish. Later on it was decided that one house had better open up and the rest remain closed. Then if an attempt should Ik.- made to convict the one violating the new ordinance, the business houses would stand to gether uud bear the expense ol trial carrving the case to the Supreme Court if necessary. Ac cording to this plan O. O. Me Clel len, proprietor of the cigar, confec tionery and ice cream stand, who had u large order in for his ice cream, was chosen as the one to open, and sure enough Sunday morning Mr. McClellau threw wide his "gates," and the usual amount of business some hint n little more so was done. O. O. Willard, who seems to have taken much of the reson nibilty of supervising the business Intercuts of the city upon his own shoulders walked iu an purchased a five cent cigar. Straightway Mon day morning Mr. Willard swore out a warrant lor Mr. Mcueiicn 3 arrest on the ground of violating the ordinance. The trial was set for Tuesday.it ro A. M., anil when the time rolled nruinil quite a crowd of interested and disinterested people gathered at the office of Recorder J. I. Young. All classes were represented, ministers, church members, newspaper men, business men and sports, but iu all the vast assemblage the lamiliar face of the prosecuting witness, Mr. Willard, was no where to be found. The court, however, was patient; and , the hour dragged slowly by, while , the crowd rested lirst on one foot and then on the other. As the hour hand crnwled well aUng to ward 11 o'clock and the prosecuting witness failed to appear. Recorder Young dismissed the case for lack of prosecution. About ten minutes after court . was dismissed Mr. Willard was seen coming in the distance, not exactly with the speed of the wind, but "by hand," working one pro- pellcr after the other with steady strokes. Mr. Willard was much wroth, at His Honor, for dismiss inir court without his (Willard's) permission, but the mischiei had been done, nnd the prosecuting witness, after giving some ex pression to his pent-up passions sub mitted to the inevitable Mr Hub bard, the proprietor of the Stone berg cigar and camdy store near the bridge was also arrested, but was also discharged. As the prosecuting witness failed to appear at the time set by the Court. To the Hon. Mayor uud Council ot the city of t'otlngo drove, Oregon.

Mr. Ricliardson is highly elated over the test already made by his coiupati). and states that his company will this week commence the erection of a plant at Anaconda, Montana, which is put in a! the in stigation of prominent mining men, witli the view of making a com plete lest of the new system, to deriermine the merits claimed for it. C. 1) Williams and M. Ulanchard were the founders of the company, Mr Ulanchard being the inventor, while T. K. Richadson. having be come ii prominent stockholder, is secretary. The big test is made at Anaconda. Montana, for the reason that it is purely a smelter country, and the results of a test given ut that nlace will lie Riven to the world. The great feature of the new system is the consuming of the smoke and the combustible gasses with tile use of any ligntic coal without the necessity of using coke. It consists of a double furnace, the secondary (urnacc utilizing the heat from the first furnace The heat is driven down from the first furnace and through the slag pit; up through the secondary furnace. Mr. Ricliardson states that his com pany has given the system i thorough test and they are all satis fied with the results and are confi dent that it will reduce all ores. Mr. Richardson states that the compauys smelter is looked upon with great favor by mining men who have had occasion to examine into its merits, and that many so lvations have been rccievedfor the purchase of stock, but the stock is all taken by the founders of the com pany. The outcome of the tests at Anaconda will be wutched with much interest, as it Is claimed not only to be perfect iu every detail but n great money saver over all other systems. AHOUT A SMULTGR.

I.loyd, manager of the Crystal Con solidated Mining Co., now inactive development in Bohemia Mining Dristrict. that gentlemen expressed his views regarding smelter for the camp at the present time. Iu view of much talk now going the rounds as to the advisability of launching a smelter enterprise in Bohemia, the following brief view will be read with interest; Mr. Llovd said:- "I do not think the erection of a smelter plant for Bohemia ad visable at the present lime. Two characters of ore are characteristic of Bohemia Iree milling and base. The free milling ore of course can be treated bv stamp mills, while the base ore is treated by con centrntlon nnd smelting. The base ore carries iron, copper, lead and cold. The deeper workings of the dis trict shows that the ores increase in value witli depth; but at the present time, owing to the limited amount of work completed the base ores do not carry sufficient values to pay for shipping and smelting. The ore, however, can be concentrated from 6 to 10 tons into one nnd will than pay a large nrofit. after deducting the cost of mining, milling and smelting. While I do not see that the erec tion of a smelter would do harm to the district, still nt the present time, I do not think it would pay." some have become parties from Creswell creat need- When you establish a interested, and they Cud by the most comnlete transportation line Bohcm-1 searchitig tests that it is practically I ..... iMavlinnotnhla ntwl linita fff n nt TAfl ia will do therest."

There are eight claims in No. 1, located one mile west of Twin Rocks, on Bear Greek. 390 feet oftunnel ha9 been driven on these claims, exposing some very rich bodies of ore. No. 2, consisting of four claims which have 300 feet of tunnel work. Num erous assays have been taken as work progressed, and the ore in the tunnels has averaged over $20 free milting to the ton. This group is located nt the head of Sailor Gulch, one mile from wagon road to Bohemia. Group No. 3 is situated at Twin Rocks, nbout 3 miles South west of Mustek mine. There Is a wagon road through this of $2000 for 2:17 pacers to be raced for on Salem Day, which has 30 horses entered. These horses are from the best stables in Oregon. Washingion, Idaho, California aud Montana, and it is excepted at least twenty of them will start, furnishing the largest field of highclass horses ever seen on a track on the Pacific coast.
