SUMMIT FLAT, IN THE BOISE MINEs.-The
quartz mines in the mountains adjacent to
Summit Flat, which is located on the head
of Grimes Creek, in the Boise mines, were
discovered in the Summer of 1868. Three
Iodes were discovered and located by two
men named King and Flanagan. In the
Winter of 1894 Flannagaa. died and his in
terest was bought by King and an associate
by the name of Miller. These men. erected
an eight-stamp mill, driven by water, on
Grimes Creek, and in the Fall of 1864 sold
out the entire mining property to Messrs.
Humason, Bibb & Jackson. 1t consisted of

about three miles below where the, irss

General Banks AnecdOte OF a Little

On the night of the 4th inst, at Wash

powerful speech before the National
Equal Suffrage Association, the gist OF
which is embodied in the following admi-
rsbly recited story of little negro boy
the General once knew. he said;

We went. down to him with all the
speed possible. Going out to the middle
Of the river we took up a plank and
handed it to the little negro, and he
grasped it with as much alacrity as any
one of them viii take ballot when we
give it to him. Just as be had got it on
the hole into which he had fallen, he fell
off the plank and went in again. The
second time he came up he wore an ex-
preston shall never forget. You have
never seen q negro under such circnm-
stances Laughter. e3
He was speechless, his emotions sup
pressed all rhetoric; he did not indulge
10 any eloquence at all He grasp led the
plank this time not with alacrity but with
Z ferocity, and we brought him again to
the surface. We thought he was a me-
gro saved!from the jaws of death; but off
the little fellow slipped and went down.
You may never have seen negro under
such circumstances. Laughter We
handed him the plank again, but he did

Mahmoud III was her son; Abdul Medjid
was the son of Mahmoud, and the pres

Thus the two sovereigns who now oc

youth, aud as remarkable for their beau

varied and singular fortunes. Both oil

The Sultaness died ia 1911, the EN-
