TEE PEOPLE ARE PAVING.
As II shown by the Tax Sheet In the
OMce Of the County IRE AsureF.

As il shown BY the Tax Sheet In the
OMce Of the County Treasurer.
The receipts OF money in the Office OF the
county treasurer in the payment OF taxes
during the past month OF November show
that the people are paying up, the amount
OF cash received during the past thirty days
being something over $4,000, more than
double the amount ever received before in
the month Of November since the organiza-
ton OF the county, the receipts heretofore
in the same period never reaching over
5000. The reason ascribed for this pay
ment Of taxes by the people is that they
think that the county Board OF Commits
sioners may be forced TO levy the tax for
the payment Of the interest and principal OF
the county's railroad Indebtedness, and that
if they pay up to the full the present levy
they will be secure when the levy for the
payment of the bonds is made. The amount
which will be received during December in
taxes By the county treasury will he, it is
anticipated, unprecedentediy large.

The HhYstoloSY Of the Liver.

The liver is the largest secreting organ in
the human body, and the bile which it Sc
cr.tes is more liable TO v.tiaIion and misdi-
rectlon from its proper channels than any
other Of the animal fluids. Luckily for the
bilious, howe yer, there is an Unfailing source
of relief from liver complaint, namely, Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, medicine which
for over quarter of a century has been
achisving thorough cures of the above men
toned ailments, fever and ague, dyspepsia
bowel complaints, rheumatic and kidney az
fectionS, and disorders involving loss. of ner-

thousands of persons residing in districts OF

The old man Jacob Martin, so we'll

before the probate court yesterday upon
the charge of insanity, the jury in the case
bringing in a verdict to the effect that he

better that he should be taken care Of BY

of finding him frozen to death some morn

where she will be taken care of. 1t is said
that the father and daughter have been
occupying the same room together for a
long time past, although Martin claims
that the child to which his daughter gave
birth some time ago was not his but that of
q man named Thornton. Who Thornton

THE CANNING FACTORY.

Prospect Of It's Becoming q ReaIi.

The canning factory enterprise seems 10 be
getting along most satisfactorily, and at the
present time il looks as If il was TO be a resli.
II instead Of an unrealized project. There is
no doubt whatever OF the fact that the
establishment OF such n factory will prove
successful pecuniarily and be of the greatest
benefit to the city, county and State.
The project is being talked up and several
gentlemen of capital have interested them
selves in il. No that at the present writing IL
would seem as though when spring opens
the factory will be established. When the
fact Is known that there were 5000 boxes OF
biackberIies grown in this county this sea-
son which remained unpicked for want OF a
market, other berries and frnits in proper
ton, IL will be realized that at least there is a
sufficient supply OF material In the county,

YINTRY WEATHER.
The Beautiful SNOW Come at Last
Indications Of the Approach of Win.

The condition Of the weather yesterday
seemed TO indicate, in the strongest manner
possible, that the winter, so long threatened
has arrived at last, and that lInen::suits and
busters can be dispensed with, TO abdicate
in favor of the ulster and furs. 1t began
to snow yesterday toward noon, and soon
the ground became covered with white
mantle, which, mirgling with the mud and
slush in the streets converted the business
thoroughfares into canals, and the hacks
and other vehicles into gondolas. The snow
came down in sheets, fguratively though
no; accurately speaking, which melting up
on the the roofs helped to reimburse the
thirsty cisterns and wells, which had all
but gone dry. The snow continued through
the afternoon and evening, and being too
soft to be agreeable and not fit for sleighing
can hardly be said to be appreciated.

HOW BADLY HE WAS HURT,

When Mullane ran through the keno room
he could have been captured, but in the ex-
element he was allowed 10 escape. Mr..
Burns did all he could to prevent an en-
counter, but the stabbing was done so
quickly that no one had time 10 prevent it.
From all that could be learned there seems
to be no doubt but that Mullane got the
knife with the intention OF killing Malone.

SILVER ClIY MINES.
The Black Jack BOnanza-Rich Ore
fn the FOsosi and Beiic Peck.
IFrom the Idaho Avalanche.l

Tue luAnO ANAlauCue.I
We continue to receive the most ia.
yorable reports from operations at the
Black Jack. The rock taken out du-
ring the past week from depth of one
hundred and fifty feet is richer than
ever aud the mineral is steadily in
creasing in quality and quantity. The
ledge has all the characteristics of an
immense bonanza, and every practical
miner who inspects it pronounces it the
most remarkable development ever en-
countered in this section of the country.
We have great hopes for the future of
this mine and believe that it will be
turning out sufficient rock the coming
spring and summer TO keep at least
three of the mills of the camp running
constantly, and ensuring heavier bull
lion shipments than We have had from
this section during any season ct the
past three years.
Work at the Potosi is progressing an
der very favorable auspices, and con.
siderable quantity of good rock has
been taken out during the past week.
The pay streak has materially improved
10 size since the date OF our last report,
and there is no doubt of the existence
of a true fssure vein in the immediate
vicinity. The belief is entertained by
many that the Potosi has the most
promising outlook of any mine ia the
country. The work being prosecuted
now certainly wears q very encourag-
ing look.
At the Belle Peck the indications
continue very favorable, One or two
rich streaks were opened last week, and
the signs of permanent vein close by
contiuus 10 be quite promising. We
believe that prosperity is soon to be
melted out again to the owners of this
mine whose energy and perseverance,
under adverse circumstances are GER.
tainly quite commsndabis.
