THINKING.

Through the clouds of gold and purple,
Slow the sun is sinking;
Fetlocl1 deep within the river,
Stand the cattle-drinking;
On the bridge above the mill-stream,
Rests the Misunderstanding.
Nut-brown hair that mocks the sunset,
With ifs golden cleaning;
Hands above her pitcher folded,
With the graceful seeming
OF an antique-sculptlIred Nereid,
BY fountain dreaming
AS tender thought had swayeil her,
Ger thestrcam she's leaning.
While her red lips curve and quiver
With q sudden meaning,
And quick nod shakes her ringlets.
All her features screening.
For there comes sound of laughter,
And merry cheering
And the cattle turn their faces
Toa step that's nearing
And she waits for words low spoken,
In a tone endearing.
Low behind the western tree-tops
Now the sun is sinking -
Toward the bridge the weary cattle
Turn themsely. . from drinking
All +! they never guessed. rs did,
What the maid was thinking.

From Rocky Bar.


ROCKY BAR, Alturas County, Oct II.
Ee. WoRLD On Sunday last the first white
man was killed in the county by violence
An alteration occurred between Charles
Rldgley and John Ewing in which the latter
received bullet about the pit of the stom-
ache He died at six O'Clock the same even
ing and was buried yesterday. He leaves a
young wife to mourn his loss, as we'll as many
friends.
An examination is now being carried on
before Justice Kelly, but the evidence not yet
being completed / cannot say anything
about the case at present. 1t is said that
Charley Ridgley received bullet in the arm
during the ARRAY.
MAIL vs.. EXP REss.
Why do Idaho people send letters to Il is
place by mail We have 10 mail and will
not have any until next July. Postofice let
ters to this place are taxed twenty-five cents
each and yet letter by express only costs
ten cents. 1t is an imposition on good ma
ture to write on business matters to parties
here and pay three cents and then cause the
recipients here to pay twenty five cents. Mr..
Charley Bennett of the Kansas House, an old
merchant here, has received a contract to run
Wells, Fargo & Co.'s Express from Boise city
to this place weekly, commencing on lst
November.
MILLS.
The large mill of the Waddingham Gold
and Silver Mining Company is close at hand
or at least part of it, aud Mr.. Waddingham
himself returned to our "holow in the hills"
called Rocky Bar, yesterday, looking as jovial
and as full of energy as ever. Several par
ties came in with him, among them Mr..
Fosham the President of the Waddingham
Company as I am informed.
Mr. Harris mill for Red Warrior arrived
last week. 1t is at present believe intended
for the Wide.
ROADS.
The wagon road to Yuba is nearly COM
pleted so as to get small mill over there,
but it is not good enough yet for loads of
Gve and six thousand pounds, but will doubt
less be improved.
This camp will be better supplied with the
necessaries of life this winter than last.

A Sensation Story.

On the authority Of private letter from
Brazil, the Europe tells story to which
no one gives credit for anything else but
ingenuity. 1t is in substance as follows: ::
Some years ago there lived at Pillar de
Tapia, in Brazil, a man and his wife
named Antonia and Msrgarida Mazelhae
ma. They had an only son named Mel
choir. One day Melchoir went to an old
fortune teller to learn his future fate
You are doomed to kill your father and
your MOTHER was the horrible prediction
Terrified by this t:asical prospect, Mel
choir fed from his home. went abroad
and resolved never to see his parents more.
After six years had passed, he returned to
Brazil. but established himself uader q
feigned name at Passasem, place far
distant from his native village. lie grew
rich, and married q young and beautiful
girl, of whom he was exceedingly fond
and jealous. In the meantime his parents
sought their lost son far and wide, but in
vain at length an old negro, who had
long been in the family, discovered the
Whereabouts Of Melchoir, and informed
the father and mother Of it. The old
folks, without giving any previous notice
to their son, instantly set out to Passagem
They arrived at Me!choir's house, but he
was absent from home. His wife, howev.
er. received them cordially. Finding them
fa,'s"ed by their journey she gave them
her own bed to repose upon The old
couple retired, and The wife went to seek
her husband. While she was cu, her hus.
hand returned. He called his wife, and
getting no answer, thought perhaps she
had gone 10 lie down. He went up to her
room. |, was derk. He placed his hand
upon the bed. and found that male aud
female figure were reposing there side by
side. His jealousy was instantly excited,
and he jumped to the conclusion tha, hi.
wife had been ,.nfai,hfu, to him. He drew
his knife and struck the unhappy pair
upon the spot. No sooner had he executed
his vengeance than he heard his wite's
voice She came up stairs with ight.
The denouemcn: may be easily imagine d.
His dreadful destiny lad been accom-.
pIished. Drama:is's and novelis,s will
probably take note OF the fact that The
autho: Of this ",ruc story" has not re.
