The report from I'siticvilfe iaat week that the new smallpox patient whs uinricy JJeuiiMou, recently from Deschutes, proved to be incor rect. Deunifton is all right. The new patient is Charley Hire, who was stricken with the disease while staying at the Hotel Pri no villa The hotel was under strict quarau tine until Wednesday, when every' tiling was so satisfactory that tiie quarantine w raised from both the l'riueville hotels. Tiie danger tliere is regarded as past ami busi ness is resuming its normal con dition. The new case, which had fatal result this morning, was thoroughly Isolated out of tiie city. The first report were greatly exngger atetl and served to spread alarm iu all directions. The truth is stow ly overtaking the lie and tiie fright is wearing oft" accordingly. . l'riueville, 10 miles away, is the nearest approach to Jtend the small pox has made this year. The Lake county authorities Itave recovered from their scare suffi deuily to let the mail stage through, though the Silver Lake txMtinaster says he will not oen the way seek, which carries tlte Heud mail for Iakcvicw, 'until ordered to do so by the postal authorities. So this route is still tied up, so far as the Handling or way mat ter is concerned. Mail matter from Rend now gets to J.akeview by way of Portland ami Ashland. It is the same mail that' would go by way of Silver take on the regular route. but there is uo panic-stricken Silver take postnuurter to hokl it up on the Ashland route. Letters to go to Lakeview now should be marked "Via Portland." Freighters throughout the inter ior country suffer materia! inconven ience because of the smallpox scare. None pf ihe regular feed stations are own to them, and they are obliged to cnjnp wketo. they ruajj ami to curry their own feed supply with theiiK This, together with scarcity of horse feed this spring, has made freighting expensive, in creasing the cost 50 per cent over the usual figure. It now costs a cent and a half a pound, in toil lots, to get freight to Dend from the rail road at Shauiko. People who may desire to reach Bend without passing through l'riueville may do so by leaving the regular stage at Hcisler sta tion, ou Lower Hay creek, about 27 miles this side of Shauiko. At this place a road turns oft" to the right through the I.yle & Drown ranch and follows the surveyed route o( the Columbia Southern .extension through the new town of Palmaiu, the Agency Plains and the Hay stack country. At Culver post- office the traveler 1ms the choice of two routes. One, the most direct, leads due south, crossing Crooked river at Trail Crossing, wh a straight shoot to Heud. The other goes around the eastern end of Hay stack Duties, crossing Crooked river at the Carmichncl ford, but 011 account of delays caused by high water, quicksand nud other tilings, the Trail Crossing is the best and safebt. The distance from Slinuiko to Dend by way of l'riueville is 95 miltp, while the other way is, easily ten miles shorter. Tlieroad is just as good that way,' and the route is free of smallpox. The Reception Salqon, Shauiko, offers the most tempting induce ments to timber locators going into the woods. The very best brands of whiskies, such as Cyrus Noble, Old Pepper, Hunter Daltimore Rye and other standard goods, always to be had here. Call at the Reception. Chas. S. Edwards, M. D.
