Now York City proper li between
two rivers, tho Kant 1111 1 North River.
The. rivera coining to it point, r Junc
tion lit tlmir mouth, causing tho city
to tin wilg shape, very narrow In
whut 1m called tlin lower down town
district, and vurywidu in llio uptowu
district.
Practically all tho street railway

uate or rather make n loop at thin
point, and radiate from her to all
arU of the city.
The wonderful suhway mil way sys
tem also makes a loop at thin down
town point from which place it goes
under the very heart of the city to
1U4 street where it divides, ono line
going op town to llroiix Park, the
Eastern district, and the other branch
going to Kingarcive bridge, the
uortlicrn dUtrlct.
The auhway system in iimtli trucked
throughout, and has four tracks down
town with trains numiug at intervals
of only a fow minutes
The t r.i ' t . lo al nod t:Xnfl,
having about oveu cur to thn train.

river, from the loop atatlou. It ia
eelf evident that t he city tlrnt derail
txilldlntt at thia point, from the. Jundi
lod up manner in which it vwm laid
out, and whilti it ia the richest part
of a lieautlful city, I wm greatly dia
appointed in the way it wuh luid out.
The tlrMt Htreeta laid out waa iiIouk
the river front, tlnme nlniiK the eawt

making the ntreet in thia part of the

In thia old part of the city, they are
not only awitched in, hut aro re
tliculoiiHly crooked, narrow, and even

old church, and r ave yard occupy
iai n block all fenced in with a high
iron fence.
While the bvoibko high buildings are
about aixtoeu to twenty four etorlea.
there are two build inga being erected
that are note worthy. One Is now up
and is forty one atoriua, and 510 foot
blub, the other when completed, is
to be forty eight stories high. I saw
a load of lumber, containing aout ltXK)
feet of lumber, taken from the street
to the top of tho forty one utory
building in about tour inlnutea and
judging from my experience, a person
will require a rubber neck to watch
such a performance, when the higher
building is being completed.

McCleary &, Schaueni of New Pine
Creek, who, a few weeks ago, pur
rhaw.d a tlu je lourth i-iten""- in the
"Mountain Sheep" property, were tho
plaiutitia iu an action brought before
the Superior Court of Modi.u Co., ou
Tueaday of hint week, whereby an or

ing Origsby, Maxwell, Diinuivau,
llroaddua and Sharte), (Oefendanta )
from interfeririu with plaint Ufa in per
forming the yearly assessment work
on "The Mt. Sheep". Thia ground
ha" boon in contention since the tlrst
discovery of gold at New Piue Creek,
and McCleary A Schauera believing
that they have purchased the only real
right of title to thia property have
entered suit to quiet title to same.
On Oct. 31st McCleary & Schauers
tdarted the work of asaeament ou Mt.
Sheep; the day following theii men
were forceahly interfered with by de
fendants, hence ahov? action.
lie Careful of the Lamps.
The ut most euro ahould ha taken
during tho time tho town is without
electric lights, and lamps have to be
used. It is ho easy aomet imea to over
turn a lamp, especially where largo
crowds gather in one place for enter
tainment etc. Wherever a gathering
ia held caro tdinuld be taken that the
exits t)t the building aro uot blocked,
or tho lamps disturbed in any way.
At the Opera House there ia ade
quate exits for any emergency, ifjtliey
are uot blockaded in decorating the
hall, or otherw ise. To attach w ires to
the lamps or the rods upon which
they are hung, and let the wires ex
tend within reach of the crowd, is al
so unsafe, and should be avoided.
ThcfHo precautionary remarks are un
solicited by the public, but might be
timely, nevertheless.
Stores Close at 5:30.
The merchants of Lakeview held a
meeting lunt Saturday evening in Rey
nolds' atore, at which meeting they
all agreed to close their atores at & :30
in the evening. This rule waa made
necessary by he scarcity of coal oil.
The stores will also be closed on Sun
days, all day. During Ohristams week
the stores will be kept opeueveuiug8.
John Bull Married.
The Yreka Journal announces the
marriage at that place on December
2, of Johu II. Dull, of Lakeview, Ore
gon, to Miss Katie lleasuaur, of Yreka
Thia uuiou will be a surprise to the
many friends of Mr. Bull, in Lake
view. t is to be hoped that he will
bring his bride here to reside, as Mr.
Bull is one of the substantial citizens
of this place. The Examiner, with
a host of friends here, wish the hap
py couple long life aud prosperity.

W hen the N, C. O. commenced run
ning to Likelv, the mail service from
Madeline to Surprise valley was dis
continued, and bids were advertised
for a contract to carry the Surprise
valley mail from Likely to the towns
o f that valley. No bids were offered,
so the mails for Surprise were sent to
Likely, to be taken to Alturas by
Barker, who hasjjthe contract for car
rying the mall from Aladeliue nortn.
Mr Barker ref usod to take the Surprise
valley mail. The outcome has not

Last Wednesday week, a bay horse
came into BIy with saddle and bridle
on, aud an overcoat tied on behind
the saddle, aud no rider.. No one
knows whose horse it was, and it may
be that some one has been left afoot
or in distress out in tbe mouutaius,
and possibly a tragedy attaches
Fortunate Accident.
J. Cal. Eubanks and F. P. Light
met with an accident ono evening last
week while coming from Bly. The
stage was coming up a bill this side
of the Wells ranch, when one of the
spindles on the hind axle broke. Mi.
Eubauks' trunks were on the hind end
of the rig, and being heavy, pulled
the wagon over. Light was bruised
up a little, and Mr. Eubanks' ankle
was sprained quite severely. The ao
cident was wholly unavoidable, says
Mr. Light, and bad it not been that
the horses were going at a very slow
gat up the hill, the passeners might
have met a worse fate. No blame
was laid to any one.
FOREST SERVICE
IELP KILL PESTSi
New System Proposed to
Wipe Out Coyotes.
SCALP BOUNTY UW UNPOPULAR
Forest Service Believes With tre
of Stock Associations Pest
f
Can be Killed off.
Tbe offering of bounties for tbe
scalps of predatory animals has so of
ten tailed to accomplish the good
hoped for that tbe bounty plan has
Lost favor in many localities. The
Wool Growers' Association of Oregon
tJas just gone on record at its recent
meeting at The Dalles as favoring the
abandonment of the bounty system
and substituting tbe system of killing
tfee animals by private effoit and em
ployment of professional hunters.
The. Association will take op the work,
and ask assistance from the National
Association.
J. N. Burgess, President of the As
sociation, estimates that Oregon sheep
owners lost the past year 1200,000 by 4
predatory animals, and that the loss --i .
of other farm stock, including pool- .
try, would increase the loss to a half
million dollars.
-.The United States Forest Service'' .
bas'demonstrated that efficient work ... '
Can be done by trained hunters who
areBent to tbe ranges to make a spe
cial business of killing wolves, and ' - '
such other denizens of the forest aa
prey on flocks of sheep. A number t
of -such hunters are now at work, and
they are ridding some of tbe . ranges V '
very rapidly of the VTiaiils hlcb ,d0
'.so much damage each year.' Wolves
'are tracked to their dens, the pick
end shovel as well as the rifle are. ,
brought into play, and the young aroi,
found and destroyed. A campaign of " :
that kind strikes at the root of the "
evil.
" So vast, however, is - the western '
country that the work of a few hunt
ers can give only local relief ; bat if
State Stock Growres' Associations go
at it iu earnest as Oregon organiza-..
tious propose, tbe war will soon grow
decidedly interesting for the four
