of two of the owners of tile manufjc

or tho exp?rim;ut. The. trees were
carried to tlu in niufa itory, where
they werj cut into pieces twelve inches
in length, which were then decorti

works. Tho wood pulp produced l.y
these machines was then put into
vat, where it was mixed with the
necessary materials. T his process tin
islied, the liquid pulp was sent to the
paper machine. At thirty-four niin
utes past nine iu the morning tiio first
sheet of paper was finished. I he en

but one hour and fifty-nine minutes.
The owners of the manufactory, ac
companied by the notary, then took a
few of the sheets to a printing olllce
situated a distance of about two and a
half miles from the works. At ten
o'clock a copy of the printed journal
was in tho hands of the party; so that
it had taken two hours mid twenty
fHo minutes to convert the woo I of a
standing tree Into a journal lor de

During the course of manufacture
there occurred a few interiiplions

SimiiD.vv, Wyo., Aug., 10, 'UtS.
F.mi'on tliiAKD: Please change the
address of my paper from Crook, Or.,
to the above address.
I arrived lieio via Harney Valley,
llaie, liailey, Idaho, Henry Lako, Yel
lowstone Park, Livingstone, Hillings,
Custer's battle ground, on the 20th of
July, having been on tho road six
weeks.
There has been a great change in the
Snake river country sineo I saw It In
'SO. Where tho Indian hunted and
the coyolo howled are Hue, irrigated
farms, and Immense canals bringing
water from up tho river; also hard
times, heavy water rates, mosquitos,
three kinds of horse flies, buffalo knats,
etc., by the millions. They evon have
mosquito bars on tho hen houses.
Talk about scenery, thore is nothing
here or on the road to compare with
the old Coscado range. Tho mountain
scenery in the park is tame and if it
were not for the geysers, hot springs,
hell's J aero and the mammoth hot
springs, It would not he worth going
live miles to see.
This country is a good wheat coun
try. Potatoes and other vegetables do
well. Fine grass grows on Irrigated
lands, and graziug is good. There is
no fruit, but plenty of gooseberries,
currants aud strawberries. Pcoplo are
hustling around picking choke cher
ries to can and iniiko jell out of. I was
talking to a grocer about dried prunes.
He wanted to know what they could
be bought for on board cars. I roferrcd
him to Geo. Welder nnd Dr. Sharpies.
Ho allowed me some prunes they
bought from a peddler In Omaha at
cenls. They were culls and had
been doctored. They woro a dull color
and apparently had boon dipped In
syrup. I told him that on the coast
they would feed such fruit to stock. I
believe thero could be a good prune
market worked up nt Sheridan, Wyo.,
and Hillings and Livingston, Montana,
as all three places are supply points for
an luiiueuse funning nnd stock coun
try. Cull fruit is sold as coming from
Oregon.
Nineteen years residence in Oregon
has made It seem like my native place
and at some future time I may again
reeldo there. Success to the OuAlin.
Y'ours Respectfully,
C. A. McMaiian.
A I'm a in. k Cask. A man nud
woman and two small children,
strangers, have been In the city for two
or three days nud during most of that
time the husband and father has been
on a spree. Tho woman and her
children were nt the depot this morn
ing. She said her father resided at
Dayton aud she wanted to get to that
place h it only had money enough to
reach Salem, so she did not go. She
said her husband had no money, but
managed somehow to got whisky.
Sho 'aid: "I think too much of my
children to havo them banged around
in tills manner by a drunken father
and if I could get homo I would drop
him right now." This .was the right
kind of talk nud tho woman will
have no trouble to get to Dayton If she
drops her brute of a husband.
Latkh. Since tho above was put In
type, "hubby" has been thrown In
jail for being drunk and abusing hi"
wife. Money has been raised for the
woman and alio will be sent to her
people at Dayton on tomorrow morn
lug's train.
