LETTER FROM RoUsrABoUr.
Hines and things of Fall and Canyon Creeks.

fLACERNll.LE, '1cpt. 70, 1o' =.
The Belshazzer mine is located near
the head of Fall creek, and its crop
pings were discovered by the owners,
Shanks, Daley, Tew and Marsh, while
hydraulicing off the surface last spring.
There has been tun; ell run on it tor
distance of about eighty feet; thirty
feet Of the way, on the ledge. Ten
tons of first class, and fifty tons of
second class quartz are on the dump,
and it will not be long till they will
commence packing to the Gold Hill
mill. The ledge is about eight feet
wide; the whole being good paying
ore, with an 8-inch streak that is good
for 500 per ton. The ledge is well
defined, aud the owners are energetic,
clever men, who deserve the good for
tune in store for them in this mine
West of this is the Mountain Chief,
owned by Danskin Brothers, with an
Ieighty-foot tunnel run on the ledge fifty
or sixty feet below the surface, with
ore of high grade Another tunnel is
being run about three hundred feet bc.
low the crest Of the hill, to give more
thorough test Of tue leIgc. 1t is into
the hill two hundred and seventy feet,
and a cross-cut IS being run to find the
ledge, with good indications in sight
The owners, who are doing good work,
are deserving Of success. The Ebe-
meier mine is west Of this, and is now
turning out splendid ore, level is be-
| ing run and stopping being done from
the bottom Of 30 foot shaft About
forty tons Of shipping ore is on the
dump, as good as any heretofore
worked. Previous crushings have
gone from $50 to 1920 per ton. The
mine gives evidence Of continuity, and
the owners are warranted from indi,
cations in making arrangements for a
mill Of their own, which they are talk
ing Of
The placer names of Shanks & Co.,
Of Fall creek, and those of the Dan
skin Bros. Of Canyon creek, have
been laid for some time, the water
season having passed. Lyons & Al
bro, Of Canyon creek, are now clean
ing up the bottom with satisfactory re-
suits.
4 good trail has been built by
Shanks & Co. down Fall creek, over
which they intend to pack their ore to
the Gold Hill mill. he Danskin
Bros. have made o narrow-gaugc
wagon road down Canyon creek, over
which they will haul thcIr supplies,
lumber &C.
Fall creek and Canyon creek head
~ opposite sides Of a summit, or
'idgc, and each flows iuto Granite
creek.
The people have little neighbor-
rood Of their own, somewhat isolated
rom the balance Of the world. Four
'Ieasant families have their tents
etched there. John Merrill's family ]

How TO BE SoMEBoDY-A great deal
of talent is lost in the world for the
want of little courage. Every day
sends to the grave number of OBJ
scure men, who have only remained in
obscurity because their timidity has
prevented them from making the first
effort, and who, if they could have
been induced to begin, would in all
probability have gone great lengths
in fame. The fact is, to do anything
in the world worth doing, we must
not stand back shivering and think
ing of the cold and danger, but just
jump in and scramble through as we
can. 1t will not do to be perpetually
calculating risks and adjusting nice
chances. 1t did very we'll long before
the food when man could support
his friends upon an intended publica
ton for hundred and fifty years, and
then live to see its success atterward.
But at present a man waits and
doubts, and hesitates, and consults his
brother, and his uncle, aud his partlc-
ular friends, until one day he finds he
is sixty years Of age; then he has
lost so much time in consu ting his
first cousin and particular, friends that
he has no time to follow their advice.

The POpe's Triple Crown.

The Papal tiara is, like the crown of
Sovereigns, sumptuously adorned with
precious stones, the most prominent of
which is splendid diamond. Rich as
it is, however, it is far from equaling
thOse-about ten in number-which
were possessed by the Vatican. The
number of these tiaras had been going
on increasing since Pope Boniface
WILL, and each surpassed its prede-
cessOr in value. Financial difficulties
more than once forced the Popes to
sell the jewels set in these crowns in
order to pay their debts. AT the ac-
cession of Pope Plus VII. there was
only one left; the only Papal tiara at
the Vatican was pasteboard one,
with imitation jewels. After the Con-
cordat, about 1901, Napoleon l. made
Plus VII. a present of a new tiara. 1t
is the same that is now used, and was
valued at 100000 francs. Its cupola
consists of eight rubies, twenty-four
pearls and one emerald. The cross is
composed of twelve brilliants; the
tails are studded with rubies and pearls
The gold cords serve to fix the tiara on
the head of the Pope, who, by the way,
scarcely ever wears it. This tiara was
carefully concealed in 1S4S, and only
taken out of its hiding-place after the
French troops had entered Rome. The
principal diamond of the Papal tiara
has history attached to it which be-
gins from Charles the Bold, Duke of
Burgundy. This Prince had a passion
60, Il q,
weather. man than he in the fifteenth
century. Whenever he was engaged
in campaign, his gold and silver YES
sells, his diamonds and jewels, invaria-
bly, accompanied him. Now, having
been beaten by the Swiss, at Grandson,
he fled, leaving his treasure on the field
of battle, and among them three beau
tiful diamonds. The first was discov-
cred by soldier under a cart. 1t was
the largest and most valuable, having
been sold to the Duke of Burgundy Icy
the Great Mogul. The lucky finder,
not having the slightest Idea of the
value of the stone, flung it into field,
but repenting OF this act, picked 1t up
again and sold it for a crown (ecu) to
a priest, who resold it for three to a
Bernese citizen. The latter, who was
better informed, disposed of it for
5000 ducats; it passed through other
hands for 1000, and was purchased for
IA, 900 by the Duke of Milan, Ludovico
il Mora, who sold it to Pope Julius ii.
for 10000 ducats. The second dia-
mond is the well-known Sancy, and
the third adorns the Crown of Austria,
and is valued at 3,O0O,O 900 francs. -

treme heat in the summer. A hog
pasture should be sown so that the
grass will be cut one year before the
hogs are turned in, so as to insure a
tolerably strong soil.
A good nog-pasture should contain
living water. In the absence of it
there should be well and pump. 1t
is by no means essential that hogs have
mire to wallow III, but it is an excel
lent plan to have pool of water in
which they can wade during the warm
weather. Ii this cannot be furnished
there should be large trough from
which the animals can drink at any
time. A good shade is of great i'm
portance in raising hogs. They can
not endure the hot sun during July
and August, without suffering from
the consequences. Several large
spreading trees, a thicket of bushes, or
spot occupied by bushes which are
covered by vines, will afford an excel
lent retreat from the rays of the sun.
1t is cruelty to put hogs in a pasture
III which there is no natural or artifi-
cial shade. 1t there are no trees, rude
sheds should be erected ana covered
with poles and straw. In laying out a
place for hog-paSture provision
should be made for shade. The sheds
may be erected for temporary purposes,
but trees should be planted for use in
the future. Cottonwoods will grow so
fast that they will afford excellent
shade in few years. They thrive
we'll on any of our prairie soils, and
may be easily obtained in any portion
OF the West. A grove of crab-apple
trees affords most delightful shade,
while lie fruit will be of some value
to the hogs. There is nothing like a
good run among large forest-trees such
as grow on the bottom lands in the
West, for the production of healthy
hogs. In all the reports of hog cholera
that have reached us, we have heard
of no cases occurring ON farms where
the hogs had cnance to run at will
through forest and enjoy the advan-
tages of shade, mast and tie clear wa
ter Of running streams. Hogs raised
in such situations have none of the ills
of hampered pigs, but are rs healthy
as Sioux Indians on the banks of the
Yellowstone. -Chicdg0 Times.

Kerosene for Squash Bugs.

the leaves began to turn yellow and
then brown, and on examination |
found them covered with this most an
moving pest. | Immediately began
trying plaster, then ashes, then gas
lime, but to no purpose. They were
too numerous and the vines too luXuri-
ant to attempt their destruction by
hand. ! was about giving up the

would try wha: virtue there was in
