Captured Wild Stallion
After Riding-Two Days

Milllcan. Ore., Jan. 1H-A w!M
stallion belonultir to Le)tou Morgan,
whose capture baa been the despair
of the horsemen and bticcaroos of the
eaatern part of Crook County for the
past bfe yeare, was Uoally run doo
by J till Brown, the noted stockman.
Brown and his outfit last week begao
a tide for borses at Jersey Aiouutaln,
when they started up a wild bunch.
Bill singled out bis norse and the
chase of bis life began. He ran him
to Last Chance, wber be was turned
and the chase continued to Benjamin,
where the outlaw again truned and
went fifing across tbe desert to Sage
Hollow, then back to Ulass Bjttes.
By this time nigbt had fallen and
his bcrse was tired, so dismounting
he led bis hnrse and tock t' e track of
tbe flying outlaw, following him all
nigbt audJeavlug bim about 2 u clock
the uet day at Hampton Kuttes. His
own horse Laving given out he took
him to the Price place and sent bis
foreman, Dave Newman and Uarry
Hackieman, who to k up tbe cbase
and rau the outlaw back to Sage Hol
low where they turned Dim back to
Uaniptoo Buttes, where tbe notorious
"11 ' bnt'e waa dually corralled.

NEW NAME FOR OLD
BUSINESS FIRM
House of S. F. Ahlstrom
Known Hereafter as
Ahlstrom & Gunther
A clinne in the name of n well
known business boiiwe viin announced
thU week, ultlioiitfli the change m
far an the members of the firm are
concerned touk place several year?
ago. Reference is made to the popular
linn composed of S. F. Ahlstrom and
Win. (Hint her whose reputation for
B.uldled extends far and wide. For
several yearn they have been associat
ed together, doing busineni under the
name of the senior partuvr. S. F.
AhUtrom. By mutual agreement the
Una name has lieeti changed to Ahl
strom - (lunther, under which all
htigincKS will liereafier be conducted.
The tirm Is doing a big business lu
saddlery, harness and t lie like, and
baa an enviable reputation for the
quality of their production. The
change in the tirm name has no bear
ing on the lnieiuet-8 whatever, and it
will la conducted along the same
lines us lias lieeti the custom hereto
fore. Mr. Ahlstrom is the pioneer saddler
of this section of the State, and the
products of his shop have been thipped
to all points on the coast. Of recent
years his efforts have beeu ably sec
onded by Mr. (iunther, and there Is
no doubt but that their work will
remain in the high lauk already at
tained. Prices Are Good
P. W. Putnam, of Cieelev, Colo.,
In reuewing bla subscription to tbe
Fxamiuer, wants to be posted on the
market price of Bll kinds of produce.
Mr. Putuaui fails to state whether he
wants to beoome a producer or pur
chaser of produce, aud that makes all
the dltfeience iu tbe world aa to the
justness of prices. It Mr. Putnam
expects to have anything to sell be
will find prices most satisfactory, but
on tbe other baud if be wants to buy
produce of any kind be la likely to
be disappointed, both as to the quan
tity of produoe and also the price.
The law of supply and demand rules
heie just the same as elsewhere, aud
thus far the latter bas kept well In
advance of .the former, and aa a con
sequence the producer la getting
quite well paid for bis work.
Ou Mouday last several freighters
pulled into tcwu from A Hums, with
fair-sized oousigumeuts of goods fur
the tnerobauts.
N.-C.-O. ON TO LAKEVIEW
Contract for Building Extension Let
to the Hall Construction Co.
THE WORK TO BE COMPLETED DURING 1911
With Newly- Established Land Department Company
Will Do Much for Developing County Tributary
to Its Line in the Immediate Future
Geo. Conn, who returned last week from San Fran
cisco, states that while in the citj he was informed that
the contract for building the extension of the N.-C.-O. to
Lakeview had been let to the Hall Construction Co., of
which J. F. Hanson is manager. When Mr. Hanson left
Lakeview a couple of weeks ago, he stated to an Examiner
representative that he expected the contract would be
signed up about the first of March, and while he consider-
cd it practically certain that his compa- would be
awarded tne contract yet,
I lm . a m a a nn rti aillea Daanranna lhat
tbe extension wnull be built. It
would app-nr from Mr. Conn's state
ment that tbe deal was closed sooner
tttn anticipated and that Lakeview
is In a fair way tn bave railroad con
nection with tbe onteide woild before
tbe close of l'Jll.
With tbe organization of Its land
department and the exteusion ot its
lin tbe N -C.-O. is certainly prepar
inn to boost tbe country tributary to
its road, and while it is no doubt
doiDg this to cb'ain more ot tbe root
of all evil, yet it will be utterly lm i
posaitle for it to prove a detriment j
to tbe countiy tbiougb which it
passes, at tbe eame time, as our Al -
taras friends woi.ld bave ns believe.
Incidentally it mifbt be added that
it would probably uot he amiss for
Lakeview to iudicate her williogness
to permit of tne road being built to
tbe city limits. Canyon City and

of Bachelors
Several of the out-of-town papers
have reported that a Bachelors' lub

the persons mentioned in the item :
'Dear Lonely One:
"I r-haueed to read au article
about 59 lonely bachelors in Lakeview,
Oregon, who are pining for the fair
sex. Itelng of a sympathetic nature,
I was deeply touched, as well as a
number of my fair friends; and we
have tried to conceive some plan
whereby wee... i: vke life more lu
trestlng for you.
"When we think of you bit eligible
cowboys out In the 'tall and uncut,'
with nothing to hear but the coyotes
and rattle of the snakes, nothing to
drink but alkali water, we feel it our
duty as good samaritads to be 'hero
ines' and come to your rescue.
"Aa lor beauty, we are unexcelled,
with nothing on our minds but our
own hair, having three squalen a day,
and only the rising and setting of the
Sun to break the monotony of our
existence. We have lived In hopes
that pome day tho Prince would come
and awaken us, but alas! The Prince
either lost bis way or met with foul
play, for we have waited In vain. We
have patient and loving dispositions,
and If you will promise to make the
dough' that father used to make, wo
will promise to bake tho bread that

that the only way to reach a man's
heart is through his stomuch, so

so. over tbe fact tbat some misoreant
