Bunyan The winter Paul Ilunyan logsed off Noiplh Dakota he had two oilers working In his watch,, one using hard oil, the other soft. The !ay that Paul was finishing up tho state, the hard oiler went to sleep on the Job and a bearing got hot. Along toward evening Paul" stop ped to look at his watch to see If ho would have time to move on to another state, for Hrimstonc Hill and Bubo were just snaking in the last, section, and though the sun wan low Paul always liked to be able to start on a fresh job In the morning. When he pulled out hfs watch the hot bearing burnt him, and he dull cod around on ono foot, pound ing tho stumps with his burnt fist. Pretty soon It quit hurting, and Haul discovered that he had driven stumps into the ground all over a section of land. Accordingly he got Hlg Ole, who was the only man in the outfit with as hard a hand as Paul's, and between thorn they fin ished driving the stumps in North Dakota Into the ground before dork. Paul didn't got camp moved that night however. The truth of this is proved by the fact that , there are no stumps In North Dakota.

Some time ago the fine arts committee of the club arrang ed for an affair that would be of special appeal to those of the men who. care for the higher things of life. , . . ' ; . :' . . The special feature of the pro gram was to have been a song by K. H. Pike, "Oh, I am Queen of the May, trn, la," and he wis to have beeu accompanied by Ace Jackson ' with his saxophone. Pike was to have rendered an interpre tive dance, and Would have been garbed in the customary habiliments of aesthetic dancers, For some unknown reason the artists both failed ' to nrrive, and the men were deoply disappointed, they can think of no reason for thp non-appearance of the celebrltes save the vagaries, of artistic tem perament. , .,. .

Besides the regular work of a planing mill, remanufacturing plant, and retail yard, the bas'c Idea bo hind the enterprise la to furnish the small niilla of the county With re manufacturing facilities equal to those , of the large operators. The company will make a specialty of remanufacturing the output of the smaller mills Into the shlplap, bevel siding, rustic, dimension, and all tho multiple varieties of building lum ber. Instead of selling their lum ber rough for whatever the brok ers may care to pay for it, the small mills may now have their lumber put on the market la any shape they desire. ' "1 . .v ' . " C M.

Drilling on the well at Kitt's mill reached a depth of 2T0 feet last week when the drillings tools were lost, and since then tho drilling crew of C. Enloe has been fishing ' for the tools, according to Mr. Kitts, who was In Klamath Falls Wednes day evening conferring with other Klamath county operators. The. drilling crew is at present going through a volcanic ash, somewhat similar to tho soil around. Crater Lake, and so porous that It will bo necessary to case the well when water Is struck to prevent It from seeping away. According to Kitts there is no doflnlte Indications of water, but the drillers are prepar ed to go to a depth of four hundred feet or more to secure Water If necessary.' The Installation of the new boiler has been .completed, and tho mill will be ready for operations In o few days. All thai , will hold up operations is the completion of the well. , ' In case the drillers are una bio to get water, Kitts stated that water would be piped to the mill from a spring about a third of a mile dls-: taut from tho mill site, ' , .' Kitt's mill Is now located near tho foot of Dald Unite, nnd has an ex cellent stand of timber which It will commence cutting thla season. Kitt's mill was formerly located about six miles from Bonanza, and a halt mile from the mill site of the Long Pine Lumber company. fiO FIHIHN'O John Hargrove, engineer, and Lou Durst, foreman In tho Pelican Hay box factory, wont filling nftor thu night shift Saturday morning. , , ALI.KX AT .M'TM,D.M'H Johnny Aileq na rejoined 'his old partner linlily ut MeCullom'i mill.
