Silvey, Lew Kensler and George Mes
by were stopping. At sunrise on
Thursday morning, while these men
were at Breakfast several Indians rode
up and wanted to sell them buffalo
robe. While they were examining the
robe the Indians fired upon them,
wounding Kensler in the neck and
Nesby in the body. The men then
sprang for their horses, which were
near by. Silvey assisted the wound
cd men to mount. but could not con-
troll his own horse, and was forced to
take to the brush. The two men
reached Bakers camp in safety. Soon

for this place.
Upon their arrival here, Maj. Col
Inns, commander of Fort Boise, COM

condition.
Up to this time nothing has been
heard of VIM. Silvey.

nard has stopped at Dixie station to
wait for reinforcements.

A Perfect Toilet Soap.

First among the requisites OF the toilet Is q good
article of Soap, but to procure ii is not always an
easy matter. Many OF the most expensive Soaps in
the market are made from coarse and deeterious
materials and their delicate colorng and fragrant
perfume too often conceal the most repulsive I'M
purities. The disclosures recently made public
regarding this subject are positively startling and
deserve serious consideration. Scented Soaps are
now known to be extremely Objectionable, especial
ly II applied to the head iniuring the hair, irrita
ting the scalp, and inducing severe headaches. The
character of the ingredients may be inferred from
the statement of gentlemen who makes the scent
ing of Soaps his business he recently declared that
persons engaged in this employment were short
lived; from seven TO ten years being the longest
period during which the occupation could be fol-
lowed.
The difficulty of procuring perfectly pure arti-
Gle of toilet soap is at last obviated, however,
thanks to the enterprise and chemical skill Of MIR.

auctions has for many years been widely dissem-
mated, but this latest success is the appropriate

After years of patient labor and scientific expert

DRIED CHERRIES.

We have been presented with lot of
dried cherries by w. c. Evans. They were
grown by Messrs Luelling IL son, al Mill
waukie, iii this State. and were pitted with
Lilies prune pitter The cherries were a
good article of commerce. and Messrs Lnel>
ling & Son deserve credits for their work in
drying them. These gentlemen have grown
and manufactured this year OF this fruit
above four tons, which they sold in bulk in
the San Francisco market at forty cents per
pound. We have no doubt had this fruit
been treated by heAlden process, it would
have retained, after cooking, its natural fla
vor and would as readily have sold for fifty
cents as forty. The Recommendation of the
Alden process is, that fruit dried by it res
tans the delicious favor fruit is noted and
priced for before dried. The Alden dried
fruit at the stae Fair has often carried
away the premium for the reason the mats
ural flavor was not destroyed in curing :
and what can be nicer TO the palate in the
Winter than dried plums and cherries, pos
sessing the same flavor as when plucked
from the trees and Cooked
In this connection it is pleasure for us
to announce that Mr. Evans has purchas,
ed the Alden fruit dryer in this city, and
that he proposes to hereafter successfully
conduct its operations. We have no fears
OF the result of his labors. Different from
other men who have invested in the enterr
prise, he has practical knowledge OF the
business. aud wisdom sufficient to inform
| the famers as to the trees they should
grow or the fruit they should cause their
| farms 10 produce. This is what is needed
| in the owner OF fruit-drver, and there is
| no doubt Mr Evans will meet the en-
couragement he deserves from our people.
If he is not given this. the farmers of
Douglas county have not the foresight or
| Judgment we would give them credit for.
