OUR CAPITAL LETTER.
BOISE Cry, Jan. 2, /

. Is @
During the day, more or less calling
was done on those who kept open
houses. But open houses were not
the rule, for SO far as | am informed
there were only a few of the Capital
mansions thrown open. The list, SO
far as your correspondent is informed,
embraces the following: Mrs, Cover.
nor Brayman, Mrs. Judge HOLSTER
and Mrs. e. J. Curtis, jointly; Mrs.
James Hart, Mrs. Jauman and Miss
Seaman, at the residence of Mr.. Hart;
Mrs. Hasbrouck, Mrs Bonner. Mrs. j.
D. Agnew. To say that the enter
tainments were first-class in refresh
ments, and most pleasing in respect
to the conversation of receivers would
be doing less than justice to the fair
ladies who received their friends on
this occasion. There may have been
many others who kept open houses,
but the foregoing list embraces all
known to your correspondent. The
Turnverein ball was brilliant and
grand. Nearly everybody was there,
and all consider it a seaAon of unin-
terrupted enjoyment. 1t is worthy of
mention that beverages stronger than
coffee were not offered to callers on
New Year day except at one house,
and there nothing stronger than sher-
ry.
Legislation is resumed again. Mr..
Bulge presented petition from three
somebody, asking a subsidy of mil
lion and q half from the Territory to
extend the Utah and Northern Rail
road way up" in Montana some
where. 1t received enough respect to
find a reference to some committee
that will probably report at the next
centennial.
The lien law, or rather the amend
ment proposed, came up for discussion,
and after being ably defended by Mr.
Tregaskis, of Owyhee, was recon-
mitted to the Judiciary, and will, it is
hoped, be further amended and passed.
The bill for refunding the Territori
torial coin debt passed the Council to-
day.
Council Bill No II, amending the
election law, is having tribulation.
The majority of the Committee on
Elections reported substitute, the
another, and after considera-
bic discussion, everything was referred
to special committee with instruc.
tons to report another substitute.
In the House q bill relating to re-
1eeming stock consumed a part of the
day, and again the everlasting ques-
ton of journal or no Journal came up,
was discussed and nothing definite ar
rived at. Such journals as are being
kept by the two houses would serve
as curiosities at the next centennial
exhibition and ought, by all means. to
be preserved till then. The Declara-
ton of independence would not be a
puff Of wind compared with them.
The wise ones don't know what to
10 about electing Controller and Treas
lrer. They want to do it, but fear
hey can't make it stick. think the
people ought to elect them, but before
hey can do it Congress will have to
egislate a little, and then an act of
he Idaho Parliament might come in.
know of no one more likely to re-
,eive the nomination at the hands Of
he Governor than another. Any old
esident Of the Territory qualified to
discharge the duties of the Office, will
most likely be confirmed by the Coun-
Ill, but if young carpet-baggers should

Another Shooting ARRAY.

A party Of drinkers about II O'Clock
night before last got into a row while
playing cards at Jim Browns sa loon, at
the corner of Third and Elm streets.
The party went on the sidewalk to set.
lle The matter. The men were arrested
by officers Tracy and Smith and private
watchman David Sypher.
One of the men, John Young, who
lives on Pleasant street, broke away
from Sypher, when the latter pu led out
II reYolYer and tired. Young was struck
in the back, the bullet penetrating his
left lung and endangering his life.
Young, however, kept on his flight until
he arrived home.
be was then conveyed to the Belts
street Hospital, where he is lying in a
precarious condition. Last night Sy.
pher was arrested and taken TO the
Third-street Station. He says that he
intended firing in the air to frighten the
fugitive, but that as he shot he fell, and
the bullet struck Young.
The Lieutenant OF Third-street Station
and the arresting Ulcers are OF the
opinion that Sypher did not intend to
shoot Young.
Sypher was arraigned before Judge
Fitzgerald this morning on a charge OF
shooting with intent TO wound. Syphers
bail was fixed at $1,000. which was lur.
nlshed promptly by Mr.. Richard Tudor.

He,s GsOuto a Dollar.

I's a small matter, and the victim can
stand it very well, but it's wrong never
theless. The STAR mentioned the other
day that John Morgan, a colored EN-.
ploye OF 2 imstein's livery stable, had
brought a lot OF lead pipe to John
Mccall, the rag merchant, on Walnut
street. to sell; that Mccall, suspecting
the pipe to be stolen, paid Morgan 81
and told him to return for more after a
while; that he did return, and was ar.
rested by an officer OF Hammond-streei
Station-house, whom Mccall had notified
of the case. Morgan is now serving a
sentence in the Work-house for petit
larceny, as it was proved that the pipe
was stolen.
When Mr.. Mccall asked for the dollar
which he advanced he was coolly in.
formed by the arrestlng officer that ii
was spent in feeding the prisoner.
That's cool, to say the least. 1t cost
Mccall just 81 for not buying stolen
goods and b inging thief to justice,
While, had ne been dishonest he could
have made fifty times that sum. Ii that
money is not forthcoming i'll the next
twenty-four hours, we'll publish the off
GERS name, when the Police Board Can
institute another investigation.

A PLACID LADY.

Bohemian yesterday met on street
corner an olu-Llme friend who is the pro.
prietor Of u popular confectionery estab.

the conversation eventually turning on
instances OF cheekiness or eff ontery
displayed by cUstumers. The coniec-
TONER said that lady, who was an oc-
casional or chance customer ofhis, came
into his establi sAmeut and priced some
strawberries. She thought them too
high, and said she could get them lower
at an establishment she mentioned
dowE-town. He replied that he could
not afford to sell his at a lower pr. .ce
than that named. The lady hesitaleu "a

request, but he consented and sent the
boy of, the lady waiting tor his return.
When the boy got back, the lady sat

ries with cream, and then, setting the
basket ON the counter, said very naive.
