GAME FOR THE MILLIoS.-Our dead
shot hunters, Vernon and Phillips, re-
turned from their trip to Round Valley
yesterday afternoon, having left Phoebe
on Wednesday last. They would have
returned to Phoebe yesterday morning
early, only for the delay caused by four
OF them at the Round Valley stables,
taking Just four hours in Harvesting up
the two animals to the buggy. none of
the four being able until the end OF that
time to make the harness fit; it was,
however, accomplished by the aid of an
| outsider who just happened to drop in,
| or else they would have been there until
now trying to arrange that harness. But,
| notwithstanding the i'll luck they had
with the horses, they did well in re-
gard to game, as they succeeded after a
days hunt in killing three ducks and
two snipe. Any Of the friends of these
hunters wishing to have square meal
can call on them and get their share of
the above, and we imagine that they can
get plenty of soup similar to the boiled
water through which chicken was
dragged.
The WEAraER.-Owing to the heavy
thaws that we have experienced in the
last three days, sleighs have been aban-
doped and the regular wagons substi-
tuted, the streets being now mass OF
mud and slush, which, il it holds on as
it has for few days past. will soon dry
up under the influence of the rays of the
| bc
we have seen the worst of our Winter
weather. and that Spring is about open
ing in Phoebe, and trust that it is so, for
the late storms have retarded mining in
dustry to great extent. If the ground
was cleared of snow in and around the
vicinity Of the Alps plenty of outside
prospecting would be going on. and from
developments made in that quarter We
should think with good show of sue
cess. Piochers can pray earnestly for
fair weather, as the sooner we have it
the better We will be placed.
A DRUNKEN INpIAN.-Ws yesterday
observed on upper Main street, about
4 p. m, q drunken Indian in the neigh
borhood of Thornton & Kelley's Office,
who was staggering and trying to catch q
number OF the genus hoodlum" who
were yelling and calling to him: Jim.
come here" and as he made vain en-.
deavors to 60 in the direction called
some others would get behind him, catch
ing hold Of and pulling at an iron frying
pan that he had attached to his belt
which was hanging at his rear. We did moi
await to see the finale but thought at the
time that stop should be mado to sell
ing liquor to Indians. There certainly
is some way to find out where they &c
!. it and the officers would receive tn
thanks of the community by bringing
: the offenders to justice.
