In answer to q subscriber we will
state that Mark Macdonald is not
openly operating in the market at this
writing. He is reported to be a power
in the Trojan management. but on
this point is quite reticent when ques-
toned.
Answer to "Old Times:" You are
mistaken in regard to the relations be-
tween the leading mine managers. The
Flood & O'Brien mbination and the
Sharon crowd are IN good terms and
often work together. The old differ
ences have been healed.
For h benefit OF those stock dealers
who connect the fluctuations OF min
ing stocks with the movements of Mr..
Mackay, we will state that that gentle
man will probably leave France for
America about the 10th inst.

Homes.

The prevalent autumnal weather is a
warning to h~ouseholders that the win
ter season is close at hand, and many
are the improvements and repairs that
are being made to residences and fam
lily mansions. The carpenters, plum
bers and timers are reaping a rich
harvest in consequence. A feature oil
Eureka is the many coy domiciles OF
miners, furnacemen and others, who
eschew lodging houses and construct
comfortable bachelor quarters on the
hill and mountain sides at irifling
cost outside of the labor, and which is
generally done at odd times when the
owners are not engaged in regular
work. Some of these cabins are well
built, and much pains is bestowed on
their appearance. The material used
is stone from the groupings that are
found all along the mountain, and the
rocks are squared and fitted into the
walls with as much regularity as If
laid by the best of mssons. For roofs,
old oil cans come into play, and over
this a coat of fue dust paint is put,
making the whole snow and rain proof.
As many as 80 Of these bachelor
homes are % in process of construc
ton, and at least $50 can be found
within the town limits, clustering
around the Richmond. Eureka Con-

and the employment of such assist
ance consequent on the employment
OF the cotnmittes, not exceeding in the
whole SIS, ZOO, and that the said COM
mittee do report to a further meeting
Of the company.
In support of the resolution, Mr..
Cuthbert said: The sum Of $4,000 is
as moderate as any one caa expect
such an important piece Of work to be
done for. We want an independent
report, and we should know the value
of our property, because ! am of the
opinion that if the mines are worked
by talented and experienced persons.
who understand their business, great
economies may be effected. / do not
say that any extravagauce committed
now is snybody's fault, but / do say
that If the thing Is properly inves J.
gated il will be found that there
may be q large saving effected la the
items of labor and other things.
MI. George Hopkins remarked that
the intention Of this resolution was not
TO upset Mr.. Probert, but to aid and
assist him in reducing working ex-
penses, which are enormous, and are
eating up all our profits. Mr.. Probert
will rejoice at such action, and will
cordially cooperate. A friendly in
q~uiry-not a hostile one can he made
with a view of lessening our expenses,
i'm proving our property and aiding
and assisting Mr.. Probert, or any u
else who may be in the management
over there.
The resolution was put to a vote
and carried. The proceedings OF the
meeting then closed.

BIgelOW'a Hall.

The fourth appearance OF the Saw
telle Troupe took place at Bigelow's
Hall last evening. A grand comedy
bill was presented, including the
sterling play of David Garrick, one o.
the finest comedies w placed upon
the boards, and a favorite piece with
all stars. j. AL. Sawtelle was cast fol-
the actor, and in the drunken scene
displayed his abilities to great advan.
tage. The play of emotions that char.
acterize that passage vas we'll render
ed. The transition from the we'll bred
gentleman to tho drunken boor; the
struggle of the actor who has given
his word of honor, and the lover who
sees his enamorata disguised at the
rude dispelling of her illusions, was a
splendid piece of acting, and Sawtelle
was uproariously applauded by the
auditors. Mrs. Sawtelle was q charm
ing Ada Ingot, and her refinement in
the midst of the vulgar crowd by
whom she was surrounded, and her
emotional rendition of the character,
was a very successful assumption.
The balance of the cast was fair, and
they filled their various roles ACCEPT

WEIPE CAMAS GROUND.

To.day's dispatches give an ac-
count of fighting between the troops
and Indians on We-ipe Camas
grounds where the Indian scouts
found Joseph and his band. Weipe,
or O-Uipe as the Indians pronounce
1t, signifies a mosquito in the Nez
Perce language and is given to this
particular place on account Of the
great lakes that are formed all over
the Camas grounds, are LITERAL y GOV.
cred with mosquetoes at certain sea-
sons of the year. Weipe is situated
in Shoshonee county, I. T., on the
stage road leading from Lewiston to
Pierce City, or Orc Fino. This pra-
irie is distant from Lewiston seventy
miles southeast, and from Pierce
City, sixteen miles west. Kamiah
lies to the west of it fourteen miles.
The Weipe is large tract Of prairie
containing 600 acres of level land
lying on top of the mountains, and
presents a very pretty appearance at
this time Of the year. Just now the
bloom Of the camas plant gives it an
uniqne look and makes it very attrac-
tive to persons passing over 1t in that
mountainous country; for they SO
little expect to find place in the
mountains so pleasing to the eye.
On the camas ground is found nun
erous fresh water springs, and on the
north side, running northward, is a
small stream of the same name, drain
ing the whole prairie and running
into Orc Fino creek, and thence to
the south folk of Clearwater river.
These springs and streams make it a
desirable place for camping. Gen
orally in July Of each year, the In
dians all gather their families and
bands of horses and move out to the
camas ground and remain there from
two to four weeks, busily engaged
all the while digging camas. The
squaws do all the work, while the
uen horse race, gamble, etc, just as
it best suits them. The elevation of
Weipe is about 5000 feet, conse,
quently the seasons are late. None of
the cereals can be raised there success
fully as they have not time to mature,
owing to the elevation and popularity
of the atmosphere. The Indians, af
ter having prepared their camas and
the other necessities, leave the Cam
as ground for Bitter Root valley by
the Lolo trail, which intersects tie
Lewiston stage road at that point" p
Portland "Bee."

A MECHANICAL HoRsE.-Tbe Ge-
neva "Continent" says: "An in
genious gentleman of Berlin, Her
Frederick Getzsch, has invented
horse. The animal is made of iron,
and the motive power, instead of be.
ing its own legs, is derived from the
legs Of the rider. The iron-horse, as
the Berlin papers call him, showed
off his PAGES the other day in the gar
den of Hagen's Summer Theatre, in
the presence of the leading mechani.
cia MS and journalists of the German
C tai. The concern is described as
consisting of couple of wheels, two
meters high; between these finds
itself the horse,' upon which mounts
the rider. The latter moves his legs
after the English fashion Of riding
(this means, we presume, that he
rises and falls in his saddle) and the
thing goes along as quick trotting
horse. The road makes no difference
it is ali the same whether the ma
chine goes gently over the stones or
moves swiftly over the hard high
road-and the faculty with which the
strange steed turned round corn RS
excited admiration of all beholders.
Herr Netzsch believes that his inven
ton will be of great use to porters
and others for the carrying of light
loads, and he has confident hopes
that it will be highly appreciated by
the numerous classes VINO are fond of
saddle exercise but are destitute Of
the wherewith to buy and mai aintain
horses of flesh and blood; he contem.
plates, too, it's application to the
drawing of cabs and other carriages.
l. is even conceivable that in this in.
vention we have the charger Of the
future. An animal that does not eat
and can not die would be of inesti-
mable value in warfare. We are not
told how a man of flesh and blood is
expected to support the fatigue of
moving, by rising in his stirrups, a
creature OF iron, or if it be possible
to keep it going in any place less
fiat than Berlin, a city, which, as
everybody knows, is as level as a
billiard table.

Shining Twenty Miles.

Ifthe new collosal statue Of liberty
to be erected in New York harbor
could depend on one of the Pennsyl.
vania gas wells to keep the great
torch burning which it will hold in
its right hand, the sublime effect
would owe as much to nature as to
art.
The Bradford "New Era" says: The
immense vein of gas was struck on
the night of October 4th, at depth
of $40 feet, and was SO strong as to
render further drilling impossible.
The we'll is about two miles from
Bradford, on the Bruce Rodgers
farm. Running from the we'll are
two-inch pipes, attached to which
are three gas jets of the same size,
the gas belching forth from these
pipes with such terrific rush and
noise as to render conversation
pitched in the ordinary tone, inaudi-
Bile for fully one-fpurth of mile
away, and the roar can be heard five
or six miles away.
The blaze from each of the three
pipes is sent by the force Of the gas
to height of from twenty-five to
forty feet, the heat being so intense
as to melt the snow entirely away for
a distant of at least one hundred feet,
and also keeping the ground so warm
during all the cold weather Of the
winter, that grass, strawberry vines
and other plants may grow. In
many places, where the crowd OF
sight-seers have worn the ground, il
is very dusty.
