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.

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.

Thousands of dollars' worth of liquors was put up and sold at auc tion the day before the saloons had to close their place.

President Roosevelt, by request of Governor Sparks, of Nevada, issu ed orders for the San Francisco militia to be ready to hurry to Goldfleld up on short notice to put down riot and restore order among the striking miners of that place, Nevada being the only state in the union that has no state militia. The Federation is said to be responsible for the conditions there, and it is also thought to be theii last stand. One thousand troops were dispatched on Friday last.

Mr Barker ref usod to take the Surprise valley mail. The outcome has not been learned. 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 toed skulkers that have grown fat on mutton, pork, veal, and poultry.
