The logs converted into umber by
this mill came
Irom How river.
The first ciiiup was made on the
llruiubaugh and Juckson Kile
places, from which thousands of
logs were taken aboard the fiat ctrs,
brought to this city and turned in
to lumber, nud then sent aboard
cars to the markets of the world
Later 011 the logging camp was
established at llarlows, uud now
further up the stream.

in aboard the cars uud almost ns

Thousands uiku thousands of

the Pacific coast has gone out from
this milt aboard the Southern Pacific

markets. The great trouble with
the company has been the (nihility
of the Southern Pacific to furnish
cars for trausxmalion of the mill's
product, uud tlierclore mucli 01 the

That Ilohemia mines arc work

The Second Annual District Pair
held nt Orogou Mineral Springs on
the 8th, 9th and 10th, was pro
nounced by all who attended as a
successful event in every particular.
The crowds, while not very larga
on account of the inclemency of the
weather, wero very enthusiastic in
their efforts to make the exhibits
show up to the best advant
aire.
The exhibits weie all good and if
it were possible to transfer them to
the World's Pair at ht Louis in
1904, thev would make n creditable
showing and some of them would
evidently take premiums even tuere
in competition with all else.
The list of those winning prizes
follows as near as we have been
able to get them:

The 13 month old Poland China
pigs, weighing about 300 pounds
each, exhibited by Levi Geer were
beauties and are strong evidence of
the money that can be made along
the line of this industry.
The two year old English Shire
stallion exhibited by Felix Currin,
would take a premium almost any
where Taking it all through, the fair
was a decided success and the com
mittees in charge are to be con
gratulated, but considering the
weather it would be advisable to
hold these fairs some time in Sep
tember. Considerable interest was sh jivii
in the Farmer's Iustitue held on the
9th and the farmers generally ex

The Improved Mineral Smelter Co'
Plant was Tested at the Oiwejco
Works this Week with Satis
factory Results.
Some lime ago the Nugget pub
lished a description of a new smelter
proposition, owned by the Improved
Mineral Smelter Co., or Roseburg.
Later on the company installed one
or their smelters at Oswego, for the
purpose of testing its merits.
Tuesday the Nugget received
the following advices, which are
gratifying, and which promise to
revolutionize smelting the world
over.
Nugget, Cottage Grove, Ore:
The test in our new smelter came
ofT to-day, aud proved to be a howl
ing success, The test was made in
the presence of fifteen interested
people, namely: Chas Ladd, Mr.

Adams, the two distinguished met
allurgists for the Ladd Metals Co.,
T. R. Sheridan, of Roseburg.T. K.

was much more of a success than
they expected.

TAKES THE PREMIUM.
Thomas Cox, of Lilthnm, brought
to the Nugget olllce yesterdny three
liurbank potatoes the largest one
measuring 11 Inches. Mr Cox dug
fifteen potatoes that weighed 26
pounds. He has about two acres In

bushels when they arc all dug. Con
sidering that this Is the first yenr's
crop on this ground It is evident that
the yield will be much greater next
year as he Informs the N'ugget that

COMPARES DISTRICT WITH TONOPAII.
Thinks the Camp has Bright Future
Will Probably Spend Several
Weeks In Camp Next Year.
Fred McMillan, one or the best
known metallurgists and mining ex
perts in the West visited Bohemia
last week.
Mr. McMillan did not have time
to go into detail this trip as his
time was limited, at the same time
the work he had in hand gave him
a rair opportunity to become ac
quainted with many or the salient
points or the district.
Like many others he cannot pass
as to the depth or the ore, but he
states that if the ore chutes go
down there is no limit to the great
ftiture of the camp. He compares
the district with Tonopah, Nevada,
and many other famous camps.
bpeakmg of the Oregon Securi
ties, particularly the Musick, he
stated that while he had not ex
amined the ores to the extent of
becoming acquainted with the
values carried, he was prepared to
say that if the ores of the Musick
carry the values given out that the
Oregon Securities has at least $1,
500,000 in sight.
He also commented favorably on
the Champion lead, and predicts
that the company, and many others
for that matter, have a very bright
future. Mr. McMillan finds the
district one of the most interesting
that it has been his lot to visit, and
states that he shall make every
effort to spend several weeks iu the
camp next season.
COUNCIL MEETINQ.
Special Meeting Held Monday Eve
ningCity to Have Arc Lights
Night Watchman Appointed.
The City Council met iu special
session Monday evening, Oct. 12,
to take under advisement the pro
posal of W. H. Abrams, manager
of the Cottage Grove Electric Light
Company.
Manager Abrams has just com
pleted the installation of his new
light plant, and in view of some
solicitation for arc lights on Main
street, he proposed to the council
that he would furnish five 60-candle
arc lights on Main street to take
the place of some 14 incondesceuts
now in use, keep the same in run
ning order without cost to the city,
providing the city would extend
the present contract for a period of
five years from date of expiration of
said present contract, which is hold
ing for some two years yet.
After deliberation the Council ac
cepted the proposal of the light
company, introducing the provision
that at the expiration of two years,
if the city should decide to pur
chase and assume control or the
light system, the company shall
sell the plant to the municipality,
at a reasonable price, to be agreed
upon at that time, it being optional
with the city to purchase or not.
With this understanding the arc
lights were agreed upon, and the
city recorder was instructed to draft
an ordinance to that effect.
It was further agreed that four
arcs should be placed on Main
street between the depot and the
bridge and the filth in the square
across the bridge at the conjunc
tion of Wall and River streets.
It was further ordered that the

on Main and Fourth streets be

In view of a necessity for a night

man, and hereafter Marshal Under

After the reading of the usual
number of bills Council adjourned.
A MORNING BLAZE,
Barn and All Its Contents Includ
ing the Family Horse Burned.
Last Friday morning the large
barn belonging to Burn Veatch,
across the street and nearly oppo
site Mr. Veatch's residence, on
Second and Kansas streets went up
in smoke. The fire occurred nt
about 4 o'clock a. m. The origin
of the fire cannot be accounted for
in any other way than that a
tramp or tramps were sleeping in
the barn, and in lighting their
cigars or pipes the hay or straw
was set on fire.
The fire resulted not only in the
loss or the barn, which at a Io
estimate was valued at $300, be .
the entire contents, except
family buggy and cow, was.
consumed.
Uncle Burn feels the loss of his
trusty family horse more than all
else. He says that he can replace
the barn and the hay and feed, but
that it will be a difficult matter for
him to find another horse, upon
which he can so confidently rclyi
The barn was filled with hay and
oat straw, besides quite a quantity
or other feed. A back belonging
to Bob Mosby was also in the barn,
a conservative value or which is
placed at $60, was also destroyed,
besides three saddles, several sets
or harness and other necessary
equipment. There was no insur
ance on the barn nor contents. The
entire loss has been estimated at
$600 to $700.
While the hour was the very
worst ror a fire, it is worthy or note
that the local fire department tost
no time in getting to the scene, and
effective work was done promptly.
Had not the boys been good step
pers it is more than likely that
several other .buildings would have
burned or been badly damaged.
Considering the little encourage
ment the boys get, and the fact
that they have little time for sys
tematic drill, the members or the
companies are to be congratulated
on their prompt response at all
hours of the day and night.
