i Bem, a young man 22 years of age. employed as loader of sawlogs on the train which carries them to the mill, was killed in the following manner: He had fastened chains around a log and gave orders to the engineer to roll the log on. After the log had rolled or and hit the bumper at the iar side of the car, he ran with blocks to chuck it, but stumbled on the lead line dog, which threw him headlong towards the car. The log, not being chucked, rolled back, his head between it "and the car, craok- iag his skull and killing him almost instantly. Undertaker Mohn embalmed the body, after which it was expressed to his Mrs, Mead," at Wat- soflville, California.

P. Buckman is building a first-class livery and feed barn on the lot where the old barn burnt down. All of which will greatly improve the looks (if our town. Grant Harris are going to a modern brick store in the near future. So taking the misfortune that Hopiand has experienced in consideration it is not a bad town at all.

The Crawford Brothers are busy threshing grain in the valley now. They expect to finish up the latter part of this week. The grain is not turning out as well as the farmers expected. Harry Myers from San Jose has been visiting relatives and friends here the past three weeks. R.

People from all parts of California; can be seen coming out of the tall timber. Carrie Nation is amongs the and a clo an her hatchet. Mr. and Mrs. McCarty, Roy Zane, Mr.

and Mrs. E. B. Hiatt and soni Lena and Wallach, and Miss Georgia Lambert of Oakland, who are up to Boonville on a two months' vacation, were camped at the soda springs this week on a fishing and eating expedition. Mr.

McCarty was particularly fond of coflfee made of soda water with a little lemon added. Bowlin Hiatt got lost jugt at supper time at the soda springs and almost missed roasting ears, baked eel, onions, spuds and "drease dravy." Sunday'the party were seen down on the North Fork fishing. There were some fine trout landed, and everyone came running and laughing when they heard an exclamation from Bowlin that he had caught a whale. Hiatt and McCarty the first and last time during their outing, did a little work, by pulling Lena out. She was fishing over a big hole of water and had one foot on a limb that projected out into the water and in her excitement to pull out a big trout, she stepped back into the water.

It might have been a sad calamity had not "the boys" been near. That ended their trip on down the rivRr to Hop Flat to see Tommy and catch Jr.chad. It would make one laugh to seethe shoes Lena manufactured out of Wendling shingles and baling rope. When they returned to camp a big fire was built, skirts and shoes dried, and everything went on as merry as if nothing had ever happened. Miss Georgia Lambert goes to bed singing "Please Go Waj' and Let Me Sleep," and Mrs.

McCarty donates souvenirs. Mrs. McCarty and Mrs. Hiatt could not get "the boys" out of the tempting "hammocks" to do any camp work so consequently "the girls" had horses to feed, water to carry and wood. Mrs.

E. B. came iii camp just at daybreak with a rocking chair and "oodles" of hazle nuts. Anyone wanting to go out on a camp for pleasure and comfort should come here, as all the necessities o) camp life are in the neighborhood and soda water galoie. Among the numerous visitors at the soda springs this week were Tom Murray and Paul Schad ofSan Francisco, with other friends who are camped at Hop Flat.

They say the vacation is all too short, for soon they will have to "look wise and get busy." Visitors to Wendling will find Mr. Cherry (who has charge of the company's interest) and his sister Mrs. Martin of Oakland, charming entertainers.

Dyke's crop Wednesday. A Good Templars' lodge was organized last Friday evening with charter members. Same of our citizens have been inspecting the Glenn county road with a view to putting in bids for the construction of the same. Chas. Barkdbll of San Francisco is visitinjg his many friends'in Covelo.

Charley says there are worse places in the world than Covelo. The trustees of the public school are having some much needed improvements made in the way of fencing and outbuildings which gives the place a prosperous look. Last Saturday was the time set for the opening of bids for the erection of the new High school building, but owing to the plans and specifications calling for a building which could not be erected for the money appropriated for the purpose, no bids were presented. This will cause a delay which is to be regretted, as the time is short, and the probabilities are that winter will set in before the building is completed. Had the plans been drawn by some one living here who knew the cost of building material this delay would have been prevented.

B.Crispin. Wedding bells Will $(iott The Saturday Evening Post copies the following from a Hungarian newspaper, printed a few weeks before the death of the late Senator Hanna, and it shows how we all get mixed up on foreign situations: "Theodore Roosevelt, the American President, has a new rival for the Presidency. There is about to be an election in, the United States, and Mark Hanna, a powerful man, will opposeiiim. It is difficult to understand clearly the American conditions in this country, but we learn apipU" investigation that before he became President, Roosevelt vvas a cowboy, and the cowboys, being the dominant party in the United States, elevated their companion to the Presidency.

After Roosevelt's election the cowboys demanded the best offices, including two members of the Cabinet, but Roosevelt ignored their demands, so they have decided to avenge themselves and defeat him for re-election. The cowboys wield a tremendous power in the United States west of New York City, and they have oflFered the Presidency to Hanna. A delegation called on him at his palace in the State of Cleveland and tendered him the nomina- nation. Hanna has never been a cowboy but, being ambitious, he has accepted the nomination, and it is thothe will be elected. We learn that Hanna will make his campaign on a wild mustang.

He is an old man, but a daring and skilled rider. In his youth he carried off high honors as an equestrian and he decorated with numerous medals." PITTS A.N END TO IT ALL A grievous wail oftimes comes as a result of unbearable pain from over taxed organs, dizziness, backache, liver complaint and constipation.
