A Ride In the Country. _________________ _____ forfeit «* U * pat ap, fag b - r - o t e v e s s o s , — In coming home from Dillon last week we get to Divide in good eeason and after supper rode to tbe dam with Outside Foreman B. Demmona who allowed ns to go through the power boos* where the manufacture of lightning is carried on on a large scale. Oar time was somewhat limited and the noise of the moving machinery prevented us from making an extended re search into tbe mysteries of the mill. Tbe young man in charge, Roy Wells, was too busy at the telephone talking with tbe manage- meat ia Bette to give at u ranch attention as he would like to and we did not find out just which variety of Hgbtwag ho was grinding out The water in tho river is at a, low stage at present .and about all of it Is need in the mill and tho on- tire product is disposed of to ad vantage iu Butte. The passenger and express wagon which brought na from the dags to Dewey’s Fiat m run between there and tbe railroad by Mr. Dell Moore who sometimes carries passengers to tbe Queen of tho HiDs mine ia the Vipood distrust which is abort 15 mile* distant. The road is over a steep mountain and tho descent is about is M e r it as tbe ascent Mr. Moore invited the witter to make the nip, tort for famows reasons the iavrtstkm was derffafa. There is Last Fttday merning we boarded the Jaokaon stag* alongside of George Bender who wae driving for Mail Contractor Stewart. At Fox poetoflee we met Walter Fox who wae breaking a fine ipan of young mare*, and together we drove l* feto ho*M where we saw a new boy—a little stranger who came to the Fox plaoo on Auguat lit. Mrs. Fox and the baby' are fath well. Than Walter drove us up the country and a abort call wsi made on Mr. and Mrs. Sorn P. Nelson. Sorn is well fixed with a comfortable house and outbuildings and cuts several handrail tons of hay, besides having an abundance of pasture foi bis cattle. Mis* Grace Rhino wai tho belle of Mrs. Nelson's kitohen snd had been engaged to Mr. Pearl Hasted for two days. Tbe date of tbe wedding bad not been set, but it will probably be polled off before the tnow flies. Friday morning Johnny Carroll, bob of Frank Carroll had hii leg dislocated. A horse hitched to a derrick suddenly pulled btek and tbe log rolled onto the boy, who was bsdly hurt. His father (pulled the injured limb into place again, and it is thought he will be all right soon. We called at John Olson’s place which formerly belonged to Joha A. Dixon, now of Jackson. Mr. Olson is a bachelor, has a section of floe faty land that cuts 300 tons, good improvements, and baa a lot of fin* horses and cattle. At 6am Peterson’s #e find a large two story boose and wing.
