I hey drove in from Shuuiko, going ns they pleased uud camping whure night overtook them. Mr. McCamiitit bus a .too 1 acre much in the Haystack coun try, which they inspected on their way up the valley. Saturday night they slept in the open air at the Swalley bridge and Mr. Ross says when he awoke in the morning he gacd into the mild red eye of a pig that was contemplating the scene with some emotion. At Allen's they fished and trained about to sec the country and get tired in new places. Mr. Ross did not have much success as a fisherman and lie soon lost interest in that .sport. On their return trip Wednesday they crossed at Dutch John's bridge to the west bank of the river, and from that point Mr. McCamaut fished down to Dend, catching a fine string of trout, the finest of his life, which he presented to Commission er Lawrence. Thursday morning the gentlemen left for the railroad by way of l'riucville. Mr. Ross is nttorncy for C. C. Hutchinson in his irrigation enter prises and he expresses the opinion that arrangements will soon bccoin lileted for a general advance along irrigation lines in this region. This was Mr. Ross's first visit to the Deschutes valley and he was great ly impressed with Hie country. Mr. 'McCnnmnt sws great things for the Deschutes valley but was n little ivury about making railroad prom ises, High Class Theatrical.

The re- Iceipts were a large quantity of pins laud 15 cents in cash. Unit rent , and other expanses were jxiid with i pins, and the good money was sip i plied to the purchase of candy with which to regale the actresses and actors engaged in the histrionic i production.

Then cumc a polylog entitled I "IJntcrtainiug Her Dean" which ' served to introduce all the rest of the cast. It rcvealud a staitling familiarity with the subject. Ron nie May sa,ng "When the Leaves , Come Drifting Down" which was I followed with Lord Fauntleroy's rar..ling cakewalk entitled "Goo Goo IJyes." Daby Lane made her first appearance in the song "Please Go' Way and Let Me Sleep." Lord Lee's recitation, "He Never Spoke Hcfore," was followed with another song by Daby Lane, "Lilac Trees n-Dloomitrg," and then came a mixed pantomime uud musical num ber in which all participated. A double cakewalk and n ragtime song closed the stage, work. There was a large and apprecia tive audience present. One of the crowd was so inconsiderate us to lean against the post that hud been erected, with much grunting and perspiring uud at least one bruised thumb, to support one end of the mosaic curtain composed of moth ers' shawls, and a general wreck was prevented only by the heroism of the stage manager and the lead ing lady, Ronnie May. After the show everybody took part in a dunce. Another performance is planned for the coming week, liXI'MKT'S VIHW OF OUR llMIHIt. Orows Pastor 'Minn It Wastes Roll uud River Trmiiiport. Powers & Dwyer, the Minnenpo lis lumbermen, have about 22,000 acres of timber land, mostly on the west side of the DokIiuIcs between Dutid and Hcnhaiii lulls Some of this was obtained an early as nine years ago and Mr. Powers has been a frequent visitor to tins region since then. He spent several days hete in. the past two weeks, looking over the film's timber possessions and examining into the general in dustrial situation. He left yester day morning to examine the Pine mountain country. Mr. Powers has hud many yearn of experience in the lumber woods of the Mast uud he has observed enough of tint conditions here to know what is ttceefisurv to be done to handle the lumber of this section. He has made u caraful examination of the river and says that for $iV 000 the Deschutes can be made a drivable Httennt from the head of liciiham falls to Dend, and that that tuttuiis of lraiiAort!ng logs is much prufernWc to railroading. The river needs no improvement whatever to be driven for a stretch of .jo miles nlxn-c Denhilm falls. Mr. Powers says there is no doubt that Dend is the place for the mills that will manufacture the timber of this re gion. The matter of improving the river and driving the logs can k easily managed through the in strumentality of a boom conijwny in which all the lumbermen will be interested. Nine years ago Mr. Powers jntt a private mark on a number of pine trees on hU claims. He finds that the growth since then haa added more than two inches to the diam eter of the trees. He notices that the number of fallen trees is in creasing but he is consoled by the fact that the new growth is more than making up for the natural lo. Mr. Powers does not profess to have any inside knowledge of the railroad prospects of this locality, but he has setene confidence lliat the transportation will be provided when the lumbermen get ready to operate in the Upjer Deschutes val ley. He says the lumbermen want u railroad that will gixe them access to the .market of Utah, Colorado, Nebraska and Kansas; that our lumber will go there rather than to the coast or foeigivj Mr,- Powers also says the lumbermen interested in this region will provide their own railroad if they cannot get other traus)ortntion when they want it. Such nameh as Dlias, the big Mich igan sawmill man; Scnulon & Gip sou, of Minneapolis; Muller & Co., of Davenport. la.; Dovee & De latrc, Powers & Dwyer, Raker, Joyce and others of eminence in the lumbering world cany weight hi whatever field they choose to oper ate. They arc all interested lieie and others, such us the Diamond Match Comjwuy and the Foley Dcnu Company, will join them in any measures of development that may be for the common good of the operators in this region. Mr. Pow ers gives tlic impression mat tue development of the lumbering in dustry here is not so remote us many jcople suppose. Fire caught in the wall paper over the kitchen stove in A. II. Grant's cottage in Garden Row Wednesday morning and but for the prompt arrival of help the place would have been consumed. Mrs. Ilroker tried to extinguish the flame aiid thought it was out when it was discovered that the fire had worked through the wall into a' bedroom uud was also in the loft of the main part of the building, Mr. George Sohlecht responded to the alarm and was able to save the building, with the assistance of James and J. N. Hunter, who happened to be passing nt the time. Refore any men had been roused and while the women were trying to think what to do, little Marion Lawrence hustled up town and soon had a crowd of men with buckets and fire extinguishers on tlte ground, though by that time the dunger hud mostly passed. A few dollars will cover tlic damage. The presence of nn ample supply of water in a stone reservoir nt the kitchen door was nn important factor in putting out the fire. Noel Vnver and Floyd Marsh left Wednesday morning "for the har vest fields of the Palouse country, where they will spend the coming two' mouths. Local Events of (lie Week. Harney Lewis is a visitor iif Dend t from the Crooked river valley hay I fields. Miss Mary Riley has been ser iously ill again, but is now able to be about the house. You can obtain patent medicines and toilet at tides at the drag store, opjxwitf the P. D. D. Co.'s office, Rend. J. W. Fiaher, head man of the Shauiko Warehouse Company, ar rived at Rend on the stage last eve ning and left this morning for the tall timber south of Dend. Marly in the week the Tiimello ditch broke loose near the head gates and it took two days to repair the break and confine the water in its proper channel. No consider able damage was done. T. F. McCailister, of Crooked river, came up on Tuesday with a big load of much-needed fruit. He sold the load at a remunerative fig ure, apples at $1.60 a bOx and peaches at $1. 10 a box. Max Wur.weiler will loavc next week to get ready to resume his studies at the Portland Duainess College. His place in the Rend Mercantile Comjiaiiy's store will be taken by Harry Jtrokcr. Last Monday Jul Hoyd surren dered his lease of the Staat hotel and Mr. and Mrs. Slants resumed control of the establishment. The illness of Mrs. Koyd made it im practicable for the Itayds to retain the management of that popular hostelry, C. A. Dano and family and Will Foter left last Saturday tuorniug 1 for the Koslaud country, where they j will remain for the next six month. The party have homesteads and 1 timber claims almost in a body and ' will prove to be quite a colony in j themselves. J. M. Keeuey, proprietor of the Columbia Southern Hotel at Shan-1 iko, and Mias Elizabeth Matlock, i of Heppner, are visitors to their timber claims this week. They will prove up next week at l'riue villc and are out now making a final examination of their' claim's. The Reception Saloon, Shaniko, offers the most tempting induce ments to timber locators going into the woods. The very best brands 01 whiskies, such as Cyrus Noble, Old Pepper, Hunter Raltimorc Rye and other standard goods, always to be had here, v Call nt the Recep tion. G. M. Coruett is enthusiastic over the Priueville-Dcud extension of his company's Hue and is on rec ord as saying that it is n better pay ing line than the Shaniko-Priue-ville run, which is saying a great deal. The Yandeverts have all the business their tri-weukly stage can handle, as it comes in every trip loaded to the guards. No cause for complaint there, either. Traffic, it was supposed, would suffer materially by the withdrawal from entry of so large a Ixnly of laud in the vicinity of Dend, but so far the very contrary is the case. The hotels, indeed, have had to put on cxtin help to accommodate the sudden rush of business; the stages are overcrowded and extra rigs are run two or three times a week, as occasion demands; the stables are doing ns big a business ns the ho tels; the blacksmith is overworked; and, in fact, everything points to n busy fall for everybody in Dend. Last Monday night while Harry Droker was going toward his home in Garden Row he brushed against nu animal that in lite dark looked like a sheep. Considerably startled, having his .22 with him he took n shot at the unknown visitor, which thereupon plitubcd into a junior. Hurry called George Schlecht from his house and bidding him keep watch went and borrowed Charles Stauburrough's rillc.. The animal never stirred from its roost until Harry returned and gave it the con tents of a .32 cartridge, when it fell to the ground like n bale of buy. It was a porcupine, and the quills flew in nil directions when struck the ground. Harry has the pelt as n trophy, and we have heard that the soup made from the' body next day was something great. The por cupine is protected by law in most of the Eastern timber states, as it is passable eating and is the only ani mal that n man, lost in the woods, can kill without a gnu. The Winnek Drug Company carry a fine line of prescrip tion supplies. Opposite the P. D. D. Co.s office, Dend, Oregon. Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Hunter and W. Y. King, who have been resi dents of Dend since spring, left for Hunts yesterday, where they will lc found for the next six mouths, after which they intend coming to Dend again. The Hunters have some prppcrty in Hums that requires at tention, hence their departure. William V. King, of the Prine ville firm of Hlkins & King, prtsscd through Dend Wednesday morning with a camping outfit bound for Crane prairie. With him were Mrs. King, her mother, Mrs.Comlw, and Miss Howard. The party was equipped for a pleasure outing and possessed of the determination to briti back a full supply of buckle berries. Dr. J. II. Rosenberg and John Luckey, accompanied by Mr. Luckey Sr. and Lou Hodges, arc at Crnne prairie for a week or two in the interests of health, game, fish and olallics. They arrived at Dend from Priucvillc on Monday in two sections, the second section getting in here late that evening with a sick horse and two tires tied on the wheels with barb wire. Mrs! J. A. Drown returned from Silver Lake Saturday on the stage. Her husband came in a little later from Roslaud with Michael Morri son and wife. Mr. and Mrs. Drown left Monday for their home in Grand Rapids, Minn., and the Mor risons have taken up their abode in Rend. Mrs. Drown had a severe case of smallpox last month and was only lust week discharged from quarantine. The Columbia Southern Irriga tion Company has this week built a cookhoiiM. at the '. D. D.Co. lumber yard in Dend. It is mounted on wagon trucks and will be utilized this fall by the company in the con struction of the laterals. The cook wagon, together with a traveling office which is to be built later, will follow the construction crew from point to point, thus eliminating all delay in ditch work and at the same time will be the means of saving considerable money to the company before the canal is completed.
