A CoNTRABAND" DoING BUSINESS ON
HIS Own ACCOUNTANT individual of the
" colored persuasion" who has been about
town for some days, made his appearance on
the street on Wednesday morning, riding
or leading a horse, and equipped with spurs
and leggins, for ride. "Old T" got his
eyes on the "gentleman' and, discovering
that his own 'calf wrappings and heel orna-
ments' had in some mysterious way been
transferred to the darkeys pedals, rather
too publicly. for the latter's fne sensibilities,
Informed him that he was thief. The darkey
repeled the foul 'insinniwation and 'axed
him that he lied IT, replied to this by
knocking the darkey down with pick han
die. This act of hostility elected consider
able sympathy for the fallen man from a
crowd who soon gathered about him; but
upon,learning all the causes which led to
this war of races the current Of their feel
incs changed The gentleman Of color had
stated that the horse in his possession be-
longed to him; but about this time the pro-
prietor of one Of the city livery stables ap-
reared on the ground, claimed the horse and
took him home. Soon afterwards it was as
certaned that be had gone to store in
town and got pair of blankets, which he
stated he would call in and pay for in few
minutes at another store he got a revolver
upon the same terms; and had it not been
for the discovery of the eggins and spurs,
be would probably have been off, with horse
blankets and all, ere his few minutes
elapsed Defeated in this confidence game,
he skeedaddled, and short distance above
town he found large American mare run
ming loose in field with rope attached to
her neck He caught and mounted her
with the evident intention Of riding her off,
but she, being unused to being rode with
out bride or saddle ran rway with him and
carried him directly up TO the house of her
owner, where he, with others, was at work.
Upon their inquirine of him what he was
doing with the mare, he replied that he had
an order for her and was taking her out to
Dry Greek They told him he must be mis-
taken, and upon his repeated assertion that
be was not mistaken, they arrested him,
Brought him to town and delivered him up
to the authorities, who lodged him in Jail,
70 await trial

FRUIT.-The young peach orchards in
the Walla Wala valley are loaded with
fruit 1t was thought awhile ago that this
fruit had been mostly destroyed by frosts,
early in May, but it turns out that this
was mistake, as the well filled trees amply
testify. There will be almost enough peach
es grown in the valley this year to supply
the home demand There will also be fair
apple yield In the course of two or three
years this valley will be able to furnish our
Willamette friends with choice fruit-far
ahead of the best Willamette productions,
The soil and climate here are well adapted to
raising luscious fruits. As for black berries,
goose berries, currants, etc, we challenge
the world to produce any finer than this
section can produce

MORE New MINES We were shown
this week, by Messrs Smith and Hoffstetter,
of.Colville, some specimens Of coarse gold,
taken from new mines which have just been
discovered near Boat Encampment, 275
miles above old Fort Colville. Wewere al
soshown, by Mr. Hofstetter, letter from
one of the discoverers, dated in the mines,
which states that the prospects obtained
range from twenty FIVE cents to one dollar
to the pan The writer states that the gold
was obtained from the "rm rock" and
that the water was too high for thorough
prospecting Accounts received at Colville
through other Sources are to the effect that
the dggings appear to be extensive, and
that the few miners on the ground are ma
king from SIS to $50 per day; some reports
say 500 The people at Colville have full
confidence in the statements of the discov-
erers, as they are well known there; and
those who can leave the valley have either
gone, or are preparing to 90 the mites. The
mines are located on a small stream which
empties into the Columbia near Boat En-
campment. The gold is coarse, resembling
somewhat the Kootenai gold, but is more
like the ccarser quality of that obtained on
the Pen d'Oreille aud Little Salmon rivers
eis hit and ten years ago

A FARMER, who has tried 1t, says the
surest way ta rid gardens of crickets is to
take paddle and 20 out and 'squech"
them 70 kill thousand an hour is an ea-
Fy job where they are as plentiful as in some
localities along the foot of the mountains
Killing them in this way he says, as soon
as theymake their appearance prevents them
from laying their eggs and VIII insure their
extermination, from the farming regions at
least for they are very inactive and never
go far from the spot where they first make
their appearance.
