THE SUMPTER MINER.
Now Known as Sumpter
Townsite Co., Limited.
What has heretofore been known as the
Sumpter Townsite Syndicate, has been in
corporated as the Sumpter Townsite com
pany, limited, with Charles S. Warren,
Tom C. Gray and William C. Colder as
incorporators. The capital stock consists
f looo shares at t loo eacli, 1 100,000.
l-rom these incorporators THE MINER
learns that the affairs of the new com
pany are not yet definitely determined
upon, as to who will be the directors and
nlficers, though those who have handled
the affairs in the past will doubtless oc
cupy similar positions In the future.
As Is generally- known, the deeds to
the land in this vicinity purchased some
months since are still In escrew. They
run to W. C. Calder. During the past
week deferred payments on most of this
property have been made, and all will be
settled In a week or two, when the deeds
will be taken out of escrew and the prop
erty transferred to the Sumpter Townsite
company, limited, which will In future
make the deeds to individual purchasers
and guarantee the perfect title.
Gold in Fowl Craws Chestnut.
Mr. Henry l-'reese, of this city, while
preparing his Thanksgiving turkey, dis
covered in the craw of the fowl, two gold
nuggets of quite a considerable size.
These nuggets were shown to a reporter
of the Chronicle and are to be seen by
any one who may doubt the truthfulness
of Mr. l-'reese's statement. These tur
Keys came from the farm of Mr. McDon
ald, occupied by Mr. Littleton, nt the foot
of Mount Kmlly. l:urthermore, about
two years ago Mr. Holmes, who resides In
that vicinity, took from the craws of some
ducks he had killed several gold speci
mens, as did also Mrs. Cochran, who
lives near there, about a year ago take
quite a number from the craws of ducks
she had killed. There are several streams
that How down from Mount Emily, and
from the waters of these, the fowls must
have gathered these golden specimens,
which shows conclusively the auriferous
metal came from that source. La Grande
Chronicle.
Plan ol BulkUof Enlarged.
The building to be erected by L. Potter,
adjoining the new store to be occupied by
W. C. Calder at an early date, will be a
more pretentious one than was originally
u tended. Hesldes the ground floor store
room, which Carl Adler, the book seller
and stationer of Raker City will occupy
when completed, there will be at least
three suits of desirable rooms above,
which will be controlled by the builder,
Mr. Potter, and will make desirable offices
or living rooms.
Still Another Grocery Houm.
Caldwell V Mallory, of Walla Walla,
has leased the store which Attorney Mc
Colloch Is having erected on Mill street,
and will put in a stock of groceries. They
had hoped to be open for business by the
twentieth Instant, but the contractor has
been delayed In getting building material,
and the probabilities are that it will not be
ready for occupancy before January 1.
Mr. Mallory has lived In this section of
the state before and has a wide circle of
acquaintances In the vicinity of Sumpter.
Stum Wood Saw Here.
I have a first-class steam wood saw and
am In the field to saw cord or slab wood
In any lengths desired, on short notice.
My office is anywhere you hear or sec the
saw. P. A. Correll, proprietor.
