What is considered to be the richest copper strike in the history of the Pacific Coast has been made in the npicr Chetco district, in Southern Josephine County, extending across the line into Del Norte County, California. A largo quantity of ore from Hie strike was brought into this city last week. It is nearly all half ropia-r, and is un doubtedly the richest coir quartz ever uncovered in Oregon. Much of the rock carries values of 30 to TO per cent. The ore was taken from the claims of Colonel J.

8. Crawford, recently of Denver, and associates. They have uncovered a large ledgii that lias an average width of 100 feet, and extends for a long distance into both Oregon and California. The big vein lies iu contact of lime. It is in a heavilv timbered mountain range, lying between the south fork of the Chetco in Oregon and the north branch of the Smith River in California It is all practically in Oregon, as it can only lie reached from Josephine or Currv County from the Grant's Pass-Crescent City stage line.

The big ledge outcrops at a score or more of different points. These outcroja occur in large crags and are themselves half copper in many instances. Colonel Crawford has a large crew of men at work running tunnela and ainkiug prospect shafts. From the men at work it has been learned for a certainty that the ledge is permanent. Colonel Crawford, who is an old Colorado and Montana miner, aaya that he baa never seen any thing tliat would compare with it.

He ia firm in his opinion tliat it is the making of tlie greatest copper mine in America. He and his associates are men of means and enterprise. They are thoroughly developing their claims and will rat them in sliape fur work on an extensive scale. COW FOR SALE. A good milrh cow.

In order to make a coupling, he gave the back-up signal and failed to get out from between the cars, Tho granite cars are flat cars with projecting ends which meet, so that the dirt may be scraped off a whole train at once with a huge scraper and cable, operated by the locomotive. Mr.

rieves seems to have forgotten for the moment that be was not coupling ordinary fiat cars and so was canght between them. He was released as soon as possible, but at that time little hope was entertained for his recovery. Ho was brought to town and given medical attendance. Several ribs were found to be broken and iuterual injuries were of course exix-eted. Mr.

Grieves, however, surprised every one by making a rapid improvement. On Sunday lie was removed to his home at Ashland and at last accounts was doing well. It is said that tho self-coupling npjiarntns of the cars was so clogged with dirt that it would not work, and so did not allow the cars to come immediately together. About a four-inch space was left the young man, which is a closer "squoezo" than tho most of us con Id stand. LOST.
