Miss Lewis, our publlcsohonlteacher,
left for the coast and home today to
tpend her summer vacation,
The Misses Elsie and Bella McLaren
nf Carson spent last week iu Midway
the guests of Miss McAuley.
After making a pretty sweeping investigation into the wants of the district ae regards road work to be commenced at once, Mr. L, Norris returned
to Vernon on Thursday last.
Mr. \V. James has creeled a fine
building upon the main street in
Greenwood City, which will le tilled
up as a Hrst class hath house down
stairs, and up stairs nice bedrooms,
•which will l.e utilized to accommodate
the patrons of the Pioneer hotel.
Mr, F. C. Wolfendcn, secretary of
the Okanagan Hour mills, Armstrong,
Is paying a visit to the disi riet, and lie-
fore returning home will no doubt he
able to make such arrangements wilh
local iiierchautsas will ensiii'i'Ukaiuigiio

future, instead of Spukane brands, as
formerly,
The road Into Greenwood camp
from Greenwood Cily, which was
partly built lasl full by lhe linmsile
company, i.s lo be finished at once liy
the same pat lies, the governuieiil tin-
delinking to furnish purl limils for lis
construct ion. This is it very necessary
piece of road, and iis building will
bring the camps in touch wilh lhe
towns on Boundary creek.
Quite a serious and nearly fatal nc-
mident hefel Mr. D. Stewart nl Greenwood one day lasl week. Mr, Stewart
was standing near a vicious horse,
ip.ielly smoking bis pipe, when all at
mice the animal kicked oul, and striking Mr. Stewart in Ihe face, drove the
pipe right into the face, inflicting a
very severe wound, the force of the
blow at the same little stunning him
and leaving him in snell a stale it was
with difficulty tlmt even wiih medical
assistance lie was resuscitated.
Il le understood Ihe surveyors of the
Coluinliia and Western who are at
work in the districl, nre having diffl-
entty In fliidingufeiisiblewayof getting
down onto the Okanagan river after
passing over llie Camp McKinney
divide. There need he lillle fear, however, hut Unit lhey will overcome all
iilistrurlinn, as Ihe engiiieeis of the
present day resold lo all kinds of
Stratagems to overcome natural ob*
(Uncles, iiiid as an evidence lake the

Maui' hundreds nf dollars uf good
government money has heen spent io

gii.nl grade around (be sand hllllf near
Penticton, but always with the same
result. Nature has nl last conquered,
nml iii>in takes a back seal; so tines the
road, for the government have now
decided to build a new section upon the
beilclltu nl. the hack of the sand bluff,
which will ensure Ihe possibility of
the highway being made use of al all
seasons of the year wilh eoinpura
tively little Inconvenience,
Mr, A B. Gray, a resident of Nelson
ami agent for li. P, Rilhel k Co. ot
Victoria, passed lhrough the district
last week, uud being in llie neighborhood on business bent ill conneiiioii
wilh ihe linn, gave an actual demonstration tliat const merchants arc
awakening to the fact that Boundary
ereek trade, as well as ihe Kootenny
trade is well worth looking after. It
is pleasing to note the coast merchants are bidding for llu. trade of Ibis
section, as to the coast and Eastern
Canada it belongs, iiiiii not to Spokane
and the Slaies as many would have
