Arndt, whose home is in the south end of the county, had his foot badly cut at the Truckee saw mill. He stepped on a piece of lumber, which slipped, and his foot coming in contact with a saw, cut through his »hoe aud his foot He will be laid up for several weeks. Word reaches us that several young men have been destroying the insulators on the telephone poles in the south end of the county and that their name have been handed in to us. A word of caution to them is necessary, for it may not be known to them that monkeying with a telephone or telegraph system is a most serious offence in the eyes of the law. How would a $500 fine strike them ? Arrangements are being made for the Rev. S. A. Smith, pastor of the Methodist church in this citv, and Rev. B. F. Peck, of Davenport, Wash., to exchange pul pits. Rev. Peck desires the change to be made at once. It is expected that June 23rd will be Mr. Smith’s last Sunday in Tillamook. A change of climate is de sired by both parties, hence the exchange. Mrs. Smith telegraphs that she will not return to Tillamook. We wish to call attention to the fourth annual commencement at St. Alphonsus academy, which will take place on Fri day evening of next week, and the pro gram will be found on another page. As the Sisters ha ve in previous years taken a great deal of pains to make this one of the most enjoyable entertainments each year in Tillamook, it is safe to pre dict that this year s commencement will be equally as entertaining and attract as previous ones, and will bring together just as large an audience. The stage and mail, which should have arrived in this city onSunday afternoon did not reach here until between three and four o’clock the next morning, owing to a break down at the zigzag this side of the mountain, ami then the horses giving out between here and the toll gate. We may state that the stage has been unusually free from accidents and delays, Arriving in this city in good time with passengers the mails, which shows, considering the hard trip, that the proprietors have kept their outfit in good trim.

Uncle Sam Refuses Mr. Freeman Jackson, of Beaver, is en gaged in cutting wood for the cheese factory. Gus Chopard went to Beaver last Saturday, after a band of 39 sheep. Mr. and Mrs. W. N. Bays passed along our street last Monday. H. L. Jensen has employed H. A. Chopard to do some slashing for him. C. A. Smith is nut sing a badly crushed thumb, the result of the collision of two logs he was rolling. Mr. Jensen and family, of Hebo, An. 'drew Anderson and family, C.

Mark Bays paid a visit to Boulder Creek, Sunday. Quite a crowd of Boulderites attended the Sabbath school at Brown’s on the 9th inst. Mrs. H A. Chopa:d and son Norman visited W. N.

The road gang are making many much 1 needed improvements along this stretch of road, such as filling up mud holes, felling trees, which shaded the road too much, etc., etc. Gardens are looking fine in this vici nity, the frost having done but little damage any where, in some places none at all. We would like to tell a squad) storv ! and we are confident it will capture first prize. Not long ago Gtis Chopard was walking in his garden, aud as lie passed a spot where he had planted squash seed he saw- the dirt moving at a lively rate. Thinking a gopher was stealing the seed, he was about to go for a steel trap, when a fine squash plant came pushing its green crown through the earth. He w as so astonished he ran to the house to tell his wife and so did not see the squashes grow and ripen. W ashington , June 10,—The Govern ment has formally communicated to the foreign powers the impossibility of join- ing in a joint guarantee for the payment of the Chinese indemnity. The difficul ties in the way of such an arrangement are set forth in the communication, par ticularly those relating to the Constitu tional restrictions on the President in making a joint of this character. In view of the determination of the United States not to be a party to the joint guaranty there is anxiety shown in diplomatic circles as to the outcome on the question of indemnities. One view is that the majority of the powers be. ing favorable to a joint guaranty will execute this joint instrument and there after carry on a concert of their own. In that event, it is said, the United States would arrange direcly with China as to the major portion of the indemnity. The representatives of most of the Eu ropean powers do not] believe that a resorl to The Hague tribunal proposed by the United States will be acceptable to their governments. Kept Her Daughter a Prisoner. P aris , June 8.—The sensation of the week has been the arrest of Mme.

Blanche Mourner, daughter of Mme. Monnier, for 25 years in a room of Mme. Monnier’s house. The police, who were anonymously notified of the w*oman*sde- tention. entered the house and found Mlle. Monnier shut up in a room in darkness, lying on a matress, stark naked, and so emaciated that she appeared to be a liv ing skeleton. Thercom was covered with tilth, bones, refuse, food, worms,rats and all kinds of vermin. The unfortunate woman, who had partially lost her rea son. was taken to a hospital. It was thought she would die, but she is now ' improving- Twenty-five rears ago she was a lieiiu- tiful brunette, and fell in love with a lawyer without means Her mother dis approved of their love, and confined her in the room which she has only recently left.

We desire to submit to your careful consideration some state ments of fact. Some months ago a few Portland business men, who know what the oil field of California had done for that state, and who were anxious to find out if the Coast Range mountains in Oregon were not as promising in oil indications as the Coast Range moun tains of California, engaged the services of two professional oil land experts and sent them intoWesteru Oregon to examine the territory. These experts, Mr. P. W. Francis and Mr. G. P. Brown, first ex plored the county around Clatskanie and the upper Nehalem region, and were both highly pleased with the indications and with the formation. They were both, however, strongly impressed by the fact that both surface indications and the oil-rock formation be came more and more premising as they neared the Lower Nehalem and the Tillamook County. Returning to Portland, they so reported. At this stage Mr. Brown was called away on business in another field, and Mr. Francis, taking with him Mr. E. S. McCoy, a Pen nsylvania oil man of long experience, made a field exploration about the mouth of the Nehalem and around Tillamook Bay, the result was the leasing ofabout ioo acres, and the formation of a company in Portland, incoporated under the name of the Tillamook Paraffine Oil Company, with the following well-known gentlemen as officers and directors: Poisoned Her Husband.
