of tho Pacific & Eniitorn rnilrunit do

Tho Mnil Tribune- has learned from
n reliable Houreo that tho Pacific &
KnHtorn railway linn dofinitoly de
cided to oHtahliNh itH pormnnont stn
tion at Englu Point about two mile
north of tho old temporary depot and
n now and commodioiiH depot, strict
ly np to dnto, will bo at otico erected
at tho now location. A now townsite
in planned and Engle Point is to
movo. Thix, no doubt, will bo wol
como nowa to thotio whoso bufrino
Inst winter had to bo trnntmutod at
the old location.
For Bomo months John 11. Allen,
president of tho Pncific & Eastern
rnilrond, has been working quiutlv on
this matter and it in now reported
that lumber ynrds hnvo nlready been
established nt tho now townsito nud
brick kilns will iiIho bo burned near
by. In fact, ovorything readi
ness for a vigorous campaign of
town bguihling in n truly western
Btylo.
Alrondy flcvornl business houses
of Eaglo Point hnvo declared their
intention of moving to tho now town
nnd tho project has revived the
hopes of tho residents of Sam's Val
ley for obtaining n county bridge,
which is very much nooded, noross
Iloguo rivor at somo suitublo point
botwoon tho Uybeo bridge nnd tho
present forry, thus onabling them to
roach tho rnilrond. It is altio re
ported that a now rond will bo laid
out through tho old Hnak place.
Tho advnntngoB of tho now town
Bito aro many fold. Tho famous or
cliards of tho Applo Kings of tho
World are only n milo distant, nnd
many other fnmous orchard lands
aro nonrby.
Tho situation is ideal. A most
beautiful viow of Mount MoLnughlin
nnd many othor beautiful and high
mountain penlcs may bo obtained.
Allen says nature has done her part
and ho pxpoots to do tho rest nnd
make tho now town of Eaglo Point

Jackson county.
Tho light and powor for tho now
town, it is roportod, will bo gonor

prosont town of Eaglo Point.
John H. Allon, prosldont of tho Pu

tho muttor, said:
"It booamo apparent to us last
winter that tho location of our sta

Tho entire fruit crop of the mid

recent blizzard which swept over

Confirmntion of tho great dnmngc
done to fruit in the middle west
comes in u recent letter from tho
New Hnven Nurseries of Missouri to
N. S. Bennett of this city. The let
ter says:
"The entire fruit crop in this pnrt
