In less than two days and a half the force o f men and teams placed these screenings un this three quarters o f u mile o f road. No waits were necessary and with the teams keeping their respective places, the work progressed rapidly. Over 400 loads with the wagons aver aging a yard to the load, the rock screenings were dumped in the middle nf the roadway. Men with rakes spread it enough to make a uniform rounding center. A t the pit where the screen ings were takcu from the pile owned jointly by the Pacific Bridge company and J. N. Mosier, men were kept busy filling the waguns. The expense will probably be between $250 and $275, and it is estimated that the roadway will now remain intact for at least three years. Mayor K. A. Race, who had charge of the work authorized at the last meeting of the city council, endeavored to hire as many taxpayers as possible on the job. No applicants, it is slated, were refused work. Eleven teams were used as follows: Three teams belonging to E. L. Root and driven by Leslie Root, Jas. Camp, and Geo. Camp; Geo. Chamberlain; Geo. Rorden; Tryon & Clay, Walter Clay, d riv in g ; Chaa. Bennett, Frank Bennett, driving; Lee Hunter; J. O. Beldin, Jas. Cherry, snd Claire Hailey. Chas. Graham and Melvin Ward rounded up the screenings with rake and shovel. Mayor Race assisted in dumping the waguns. A t the pit were D. W. Hudson, in charge; W. M.

Smith came up from Portland Tuesday for a few days' stsy on the latter’s ranch in Greenwood, which is managed by J. W. Yonish. The two men brought their guns and hunting clothes but were unable to hag any grouse. Mr. Smith, who fuim erly owned a sporting goods house in Minneapolis, Minn., has hunted throughout the Northwest, but states that his favorite place for hunt ing Chinese pheasants and grouse is in the Willamette valley in the vicinity of Lebanon, although he believes that with proper care the Mosier hills will »fiord a natural retreat for the various game birds o f Oregon. Mr. Diven, who is president o f the H. T. Hudson Arms company in Port land, wholesale and retail dealers in sporting goods, stated yesterday on leaving that he would he up again the first o f next week. Last week while walking through his orchard he shot two grouse that fiew up, and upon e x amining them discovered them to he the sharp tailed grouse with white breasts, a species foreign to this sec tion o f the country.
