mont published in the HERALD of the pre-
vious week, showing the amount of per-
sonal property in Washington, returned by
the Assessor for taxation, which amount
footed up $549, 1888. That statement only
included property returned by the Assessor,
and did not include Banks, Building Asso-
Citations, and some other items, as our cor
respondent might have noticed. In addi-
ton to that amount the following items

WIRES STILL DOWN,

The storm of night before last inter
fered with the telegraph wires between
here and White river "a distance of So
miles) to an extent which has prevented
the transmitting OF messages. Mr.. Hen
derson, of the Western Union, early YES.
terday morning dispatched a man along
the line in pursuit of the break, and
some eight miles from this city repaired
the wire, and returned, supposing all was
right, but such was not the case, the
wire being parted at another point be-
yond. A man will be started early this
morning with instructions TO use all
possible speed to make the connection
complete. 1t is very annoying to be cut
off from the outside world, but there be-
ing no means at hand to prevent the dis
appointment we must abide the time re-
quired to repair the damage caused by
the late severe storm.
Through the courtesy of Mr.. Wallace,
of the Deseret Telegraph line, we are
enabled to furnish our readers this morn
ing with the San Francisco stock reports
Of yesterday.

The Silver Mountain Gal Chronicle,
OF late date, speaks of the mining in
terests in Alpine county, as follows:
The Pennsylvania mining claim COM
prises 1000 feet, of which 1,SOO feet is
represented on the trust deed; 742 is
assessable, the balance belonging to the
company. Work was commenced on
this mine in 1864; the upper tunnel is
800 feet, and the lower is to the ledge
91s feet. The mill site is at the tunnel,
and ore can be dumped into the mill di-
rect from SIS to $500 per ton. SAB, 900
have been expended on this claim; it has
been we'll managed, and the want of
means to develop it caused the cessation
of work. The lower tunnel is 1.5OO
above the level of the town. Eastern
capitalists are negotiating for its pur-
chase. The George Washington claim
having been sold to the Ogden Silver
Mining Company at Chicago, We give
brief outline history connected with it:
Work was commenced in 1862 and 800
loot tunnel driven on the ledge In 1864
the lower tunnel was commenced and
struck the ledge at distance of 400 feet;
40 feet from the mouth of this tunnel a
5O-foot shaft was sunk, from which a
l50-foot drift was made towards the Frank
ledge 70 feet-half way to it. Thirty
four thousand dollars have been ex-
pended on this claim; but bad manage
ment and want of capital caused sus-
pension.

A LUCRATIVE BALE OF CoTToN.-At the
fair last year, in st. Louis, the prize o,
$1,000 for the best bale OF cotton was
awarded John G. Yeiser, of jackson,
Miss. The bale was afterwards sent to
Memphis, where it won the first prize,
and subsequently it appeared at Jackson,
where it also won the first premium.
Having thus been adjudged to be the
best bale Of cotton by three different
sets of judges, this lucrative bale was
sold by its owner for IS cents pound,
two and half times the usual price, and
thus realized him, in addition to the
premiums, probably $1,000. Its new
owner, desiring to press its career of
triumph further, intends to send this
famous cotton bale to the Vienna Expo
sitioD, to show the world assembled
there what Mississippi can do in the way
of cotton raising.

Indians both hate and despise tbs Apple
gates, and all detest even the name, and
will not treat with them or any one of
them. They attribute this trouble to
them, and | may add here that large
majority OF the white settlers here coin
eide with that opinion. The gentlemen
referred to stand in no more enyiable
light among the ornians here than
among the Indians Now in the lava beds,
for it is believed that through their in.
fuence with the Oregonians the war was
brought about. They belong to the Ore.

reason of Indian wars and agencies, and
it is believed now that this same war
ring is anxious to prolong the war as
long as possible, that they may feather
their nests by disposing of their hay and

A You're LADY SUED FOR BREACH OF
PRoMIsE.-A novel case is on trial before
jury in Montreal, the plaintiff being a
dentist named Matthew, who brings suit
against young lady named Lafamme
for refusing to comply with the terms Of
a marriage engagement into which she
had previously entered This is said to
be not the first time at which she has VIC
lated the tenor of the golden rule, and it
is reported that, to prove her malice
aforethought, and the deliberation with
which she ruthlessly snapped the tooth
puller's heart strings, her old discarded
flames will advance in solemn proce ssion
and give evidence against her with view
Of establishing the fact that she tits with
methodical regularity. 1t is also alleged
that the fair lady gave her afianced, the
too confiding dentist, notice of the
change in the thermometer of her affec-
lions only II week previous to the day ap-
pointed for the ceremony; and, further.
that the doctor, in the fullness of touch
ing faith in her eternal constancy, had
provided a house and purchased the
clothes in which he was to be married.
