car at this placo by Shoriff Hall
Saturday evening. Conductor
Dan Colvin suspicioned tho fcl

Burned His Wagon.
Whilo on his way homo from
tho Pino Ridgo last week John'
McKonzio camped near tho river
for dinner. In somo way , tho
camp flro and load of pitch pino
wood, became' ' too closely con
nected which resulted in tho to
tal destructing of tho wood and
wagon. Mr. Mcptouzio was near
there all tho tune but it seems
that tho flro had a good start bo
foro ho discovered it and was
unable to quench tho flames. In
trying to savo the blankots and
axo he burned his faco and hands
quite severely.
Whilo at Pino Ridgo a fow
weeks ago, Mr, Huot secured a
specimen of what tho Pino Itidgo
peoplo call "Oregon Grape," and
sent it to Thomas Meehan & Sons,
Philadelphia, foiV classification.
Tho following !from Median's
Monthly Wild Flowers And Na
turo explains it.
-ULJXnot-.of HamingtodJ
sends aapecimont iromriuoltiuge.
aou., or waar is more caiieu the
Oregon Grape. It is Mahouia
ropens. Tho true roon Grape
is Mahonia aquifolia. Botanist d
not regard them as distinct, ard
uso M. repens as a synonym.
Horticulturist, however, have to
koep them separate, and conse
quently to koop up both names.
In Oregon and further nor th oven
to Alaska Mahonia aquifolia
grows sometimes four feet high,
forming undorbush so thick that a
man can scarcly got through; but
the ono from Nobraska, M. ropens,
seldom exceeds a foot in hight, and
creeps underground considerably.
Our correspondent also sends spec
imens of Caloohorlus Nuttalliana,
tho beautiful Mariposa Lily of that
section. Both of the3o species aro
ropresontatives of tho Flora of Uio
Pacific coast, and Pino Ridge is
probably tho eastern limit of these
two species.

Blood by and hoard a conversation
botwoon a citizen of Lincoln and it

thoro woro hundreds of good men
in that city who woro ready and
willing to preform any kind of
work that would provide a living
for themselves and families, but
thoy wore uuablo to got work.
Now, wo wish that the poople of
Slioridan who arc going or talking
of going away would study tho
matter carefully boEoro thoy sacri
fice too much to got out of North

mit that tho outlook horo is very
discouraging, moro so than over)
boforo in this part of tho stato, and
whore persons know whoro thoy
aro going and what thoy aro going
to d6 wo could not nnd would nbt
advise them to stay horo, but this
is not by any moans tho worst
country in tho world, nnd in years
past gbod crops have boon raised
hero and those timos will certainly
roturn. Wo may reasonably expect
it next yoav.

has boon receiving tho Citizen for

the audacity to stop it without pay

It is worth somothing to find out
such specimens of humanity, but
wo aro sorry that ho became identi
fied with this otlico, and should wo
find anothor personage like him wo
shall certainly deem him a subject
for a raonuinontal roast. Wo have
heard of mou using a hose to blow
biscuits to tho top of tho swill bar
rel in order to boat tho landlord
out of a meal, but it is holdora you
find a man mean enough to try to
