AT H White Sulphur Springs, on We'd
nesday, the 26th ult., Mr.. John Sherwood,
the mail carrier from Helena to the Springs,
in this county, met with a painful accident
while trying to secure one of his horses.
He had driven the mare into a corner of the
corral, and had thrown a pole across in such
a way as to pen her, when she jumped upon
the pole, throwing it against his ankle with
such force as to knock him down. Mr.. Hank
Potter, who was present, went to his assist
ance, and finding the ankle dislocated, i'm
mediately pulled the joint into it's place, and
after fixing him as comfortably as possible,
proceeded to Camp Baker for DR.. Whitefoot,
the post surgeon. DR.. w. found that one of
the articulations, Tor small bones surround
ing the ankle jointly was fractured, and
thinks it will be several weeks before Mr.. S.
will recover. Johnny has the sympathy OF
the people Of upper Smiths river valley, as
he has been employed on the line for several
months, and enjoys the confidence and es-
TEEN OF every body along the route.

the road was open, and some mail matter

Col. DELAcy passed through town a few
days ago returning to Helena. He Informs
us that his sheep are in fine condition, and
are very prolific this spring. Lambs are
dropping at the rate Of a dozen or two a
day, and nearly all twins. The Colonel has
located a ranch on Newlan creek, just at the
improving.
J. Y. STAFFORD raised $50 bushels of corn
last year, on his ranch near Avalanche, in
this county. We are using a sack Of meal
made from it, and find it the best we have
tested in the country. Mr.. S. also raised a
fine lot of buckwheat, from which he man
ufactured an excellent article of flour. Find
ing his farm so well adapted to the growing
of corn and buckwheat, he has calculated
to plant a large lot oft this season.
WE was in error last week, in stating that
the Hellgate and Avalanche Ditch Company
were adding to their supply Of water by
fluming the canyon at Cave Gulch. The
flume referred to is the property Of Mr.. j.
V. Stafford, who is taking the Cave Gulch
water out for the purpose of working some
high bar diggings, several hundred feet
above the Hellgate and Avalanche.
GEO. VAN WATERS, the "Rubber Stamp
Man, who has been in our town about a
week, went over to the Springs Tuesday,
to test their healing qualities, but will return
in a few days with his tongue rendered as
pliable as ever by the use of these wonder
full waters. These rubber stamps are a
capital thing for marking clothing. Call
upon "Brick" and he will tell you how it is
himself.
LAST week, our town was unusually live
ly. There were over a hundred persons in
from different parts of the county. 1t was
generally supposed that court would last
two weeks, but it came suddenly to a close
on the evening of the third day. When it
became generally known that the most i'm
portant cases were postponed, the trial jury
dismissed, the people departed so suddenly
that our town looked to be evacuated.
BREEDERS of fine horses will do we'll to
consult G. Barr Smiths advertisement in
another column. Mr.. Smith is a thorough.
going horse man, having been engaged in
the business from his boyhood. He is per-
fectly familiar with all the best strains OF

Bob Lee is a thoroughbred stallion, and is Of
a noble line of horses, as his parentage
shows.
