that time the pastor, Rev. Robert
Leslie aud the members of the church
and congregation have worked faith
fully iu thoir efforts to rebuild, and
the beautiful modern structure occu
pying the Bight of the old building is
a fitting memorial of their devotion to
the cause.
The church baildiug is modern in
style of architecture aud built at a
cost of about 42(X). The main audi
torium is 36x3(1 feet, the outside en
trance being iu one corner and the
pulpit in the opposite comer. Open
ing from this room is the prayer
meeting room, 2Cx40 feet, the greater
part of which, when the sliding doors
are opened, is in full view of the pul
pit and when tho church is orowded
cnu be used to greatly increase the
seating capacity. Back of tho pulpit
is the bapistry, which will be screen
ed by curtains when not in uso.
Opening into the main auditorium by
a side door is a class room, lOxlfl feet.
Iu the tower which is 1'! feet
square, is located the stuly, whit h
will also bo used as a class room. The
basement will be fitted up with par-
lots 2flx4li feet for social events, a
kitchen 10x1(1, toilet and wood rooms
will also bo located In the basemeut.
Tho church has just issued a neat
illustrated souvenir giving a list of
tho contributors and the treasurer's
statement, which showed tho oost of
building to date 10 and the
amount needed to complute tltti build
ing t'5.
Rev. Robert Loslie his been pastor
of the church since lH'jy and lias
beeu untiring iu his efforts iu behalf
of tho church and it is through his
uncoasiug toil in a great measure,
that the beautiful church has beeu
erected.

FEBRUARY A WET MONTH
Southern Oretfon Placer Miners
Wear Broad Smiles.
February, lllfl-l, is worthy to bo
recorded iu the history of Southern
Orcgou as nno of tho record breaking
mouths for wetness. The ground ling,
who "seen bis shudder" on February
2, nnd went back into bis burrow
for a good, long slay, was certainly a
Siigncions brute, for there has beeu
Hcaicely a di.y since when his Mile
would not have been soal.ed full of
moisture if lie had been out iu the
weather. From one end of the month
to the other it has rained and rained,
until even the Oregoniaus have cried
'enough. " The reservoirs of tho
sides have seemingly been inexhaust
ible and Jupiter l'luvius has adminis
tered n stinging rebuke t3 those, who
had the, ashurauco to prophesy u dry
winter.
Twice during the mouth, on the
1 1 th and 15th and ou tho 2oth, nud
'.'i'llli, tho ruin has poured iu a manner
that would have seemed homelike to
Noah If lie had been bore to exper
ience it, and both times tho creeks
hnvo been swollen to rivers and every
gulch carried a raging torrent, ltogne
river itself tins not reached any alarm
ing flood height, nothing to compare
with last year, but nil tho creeks
and smaller streams have been near
their record height. In the higher
mountains the precipitation lias been
iu tho form of snow, so that the
Uogue river channel has been obliged
to carry only the extra How from the
lowland creeks. A Chinook wind in
the Cascades at the proper tlmu would
tiavo caused a tremendous Hood.
South of tho slate line, however, the
rivers reached a very unusual height.
The Sacramento has been higher thit
season than for many years past.
.Many miles of the bottom lands ol
the Haer iineiito valley have been In
undated and a break in the levee ncur
Sicrameiito en used soiuii aiiixety to
th Inhabitants of that city.
'I'lie time tins been a vuiy huty en,
for tint trackmen of the Southern
I'm: I tin company us slides and witnli
outs have been causing continual
trouble all along the line. On the
night of the l llli the Jun p-olI Jo,
I, ridge at Merlin was put out of com
mission uuil a long stretch of track
inundated The sunlaiiied height of
the stream made all repair elfotts
futile until the next night. Almost
it the same time u huge slliln at Wall
creek in the Sii-klyoiis stonp, d all
trallio for some H liouis. On the
night of the Zoth, a maininotli slide
covered the track at the historic
Roberts bill near lies, burg and the
steam shovel was brought from tin
Slskiyous for the piir s of clearing
the track. At the same plucn, on the
.'ilh, a huge slide caiiio down imme
diately behind the south bound piiks-eugi-r
train, No. l"i, started uo dnubt
by the jar of that train. It was not
until some 110 hours later that the
railroad siopln succeeded ill getting
the track clear. On the night of the
the south bound train No. 1.,
was struck by a slide near Keswick
The train was running very slowly
at the time, otherwise there might
have been a tragedy to report. The
mass of dirt anil rock buried the
chair cur to tho height of the w in
dows, five of which were broken.
The passengers made a precipitate
rush for the smoker. No duping, 1 re
united except to the chair car, which
was badly scarred hcldcs having the
w indows and steps brok, u. 1 he
train was cut in two and the forward
portion was taken Oil to He, I, ling
while the other part was run hick to
Keswick until the track was choired.
The Cow creek eauynu, formerly sc
dreaded oil account of its slides, bar
inn, In uo tioublu wurtti mentioning
this ycur, and, indeed, for several
years past, the slides in this canyon
have beeu small affairs.
The plueur miners, except in some
cases where the high water uud
saturated ground have occasioned
damage to ditches, have re re I lid in
a wealth of water during the entire
mouth. The weather has been ex
ceptionally favorublo fur thii "do
gulch" miner, tho man who has water
tor operation only when it is raining
briskly. There nre a considerable
number of such minors scattered about
TIIL IIOLSEI URNISIIER
GRANTS PASS, OREGON
the Southern Oregon' canyons. They
work ou a small scale and there are
usually only a few weeks in the year
when they can work, yet they manage
to make a living ont of their "dig
gins" nnd the aggregate amount of
gold taken out annually in this mnn
ner helps iu no inconsiderable measure
to swell the output of Southern Ore
gon. To miners of this olass the past
month has beeu a remarkably good
one, while tho owners of good water
rights and the hydraulic- operators
can complain of nothing worse than
an over nbnndanco of Water.
While thero have beon a few times
during tbo mouth, whou the wiud
blew with lnoro vigor and chilliness
than was absolutory pleasant, and a
few times when the lulling rain was
mixed with very wet snow which
melted as it fell, the weather in
general has been warm aud not nu
pleasant in spite, of tho almost contin
ual rain. Crocuses aud buttercups
have been in bloom for some time and
tho tlrst few sunny dnys that follow
tho termination of the rainy time
will bring out several Tariotles of the
enrller spring wild flowers in profus
ion. It is the usual program In
Southern Oregon that several weeks
of beautiful sunshiuy weather shall
occur butweeu tho first of February
and tho last of March. It is probable,
therefore, that a seasou of Southern
Oregon srping sunshine, a quality of
weather absolutely unexcelled in
beauty and delightfnluoss in any
clime or country, is near at hand.
Another slido occurred ai Roberta'
hill Tuesday night but was not of to
great extent as those which proceeded
it. At Wall creek tho trains hare
been running ou a temporary track
built around the slido and the steam
shovel has boon osolllatltig between
that point nnd Robert's hill. A few
nights ago a small slido struck a
train at Cloody Run, throo miles
south of Grunts Pass, but occasioned
uo considerable damage.
Proper Trcitmtnt ol Pneumonia,
l'nennmnia is too dangerous a dis
ease for nuynnn to attempt to doctor
himself, although bo may bare the
proper remedies at hand. A physi
,'iitii should always bo called. It
diotild be borne iu mind, however,
that pneumonia always results from
old or from an attack of the grip,
mil that by giving Uliainberlaiu'a
I'ough 11, in, dy tho threatened attack
if pneumonia may lie warded off.
I bis lr. W. J. Smith, of Sanders,
M i., who is also a druggist, says of
it : "1 have been selling Chamber
lain's Cough ltemudy and prescribing
it iu .my ptiietiuu for thu past six
fears. " Sold by all druggists.
The mail that left Crescent City
last Suuduy afternoon, for Grants
I'uns, contained, among other matter,
the Del Norte Keuords of the day be
fore, addressed to people in various
states, and the papers received good
soaking. The stage Into Sunday night
rati into and was upset iu a washout
of a creek near the 1.1 mile stake, and
one horse was drowued. The mail
could not bo fuuud that night on ac
count of the intense darkness, and not
until Tuesday was the sack containing
thu Records recovered. What condi
tion the papers were in after the
muting rucelved, we did not learn.
So doubt it would bo a hard matter
to decipher the addresses, aud should
subscribers outside of Coos, Curry,
mil Humboldt counties fail to receive
the issue of February 20th, the fore
going facts will accouut fur It. Ac
eidetits will happen to mall carriers
once in a while. Record.
