Our New MILL.---The upper portion of

grandly. Wesley Aulkey has his two and

pleted. The wheelwrights have the large
water wheel with which this mill il to he
operated almost finished 1t is IN eighteea
foot wheel, Of about 1000 pounds weight,
and has falling capacity Of LOCO pounds.
This is the third or fourth wheel Of the
kind that Mr.. Mulkey has built, and this
one is pronounced by wheelrights to be ,
perfect piece of mechanism. This mill is t.
be operated by the water from the Lewiston
ditch. 1t is to have two sets OF burrs, and
will undoubtedly accommodate large por
ton of trade from the northern part of the
country, who will cross the river at the new
ferry crossing, and also that portion which
must pass it from the new Assotin bridge
and those from the table lands south o
this city. On the whole it will be a valu
able acquisition TO Lewiston.

The steamers John Gates, Almota
and Spokane are all running between
Cello and Ainsworth, the latter boat
carrying freight only. No change in
the schedule will be attempted until
the river rises sufficiently high to ena-
ble the company top put on larger boats.
The above-named steamers each make
two trips per week and bring down
about $50 tons each week. Passen-
ger travel is good, unusually so for the
season, the Portland boat bringing up
SO on Thursday night. No probabil-
ity of q suspension above here on &C
count of ice, but the cold weather has
reduced the water to as low stage as
renders boating possible, hence the
steamers have to carry light loads and
feel their way carefully along
Empire.

PROBABLY MURDERED. Uncertain infor-
nation comes to lis from different points in
regard to the missing man, Marshall Mon
roe ClDuzer who had ranch near Anatone
il the Assotin country. 1t appears that in
the carly part Of last Summer or Spring,
Clouzer went in company with two men,
strangers into the Grand Ronde c9hntry to
lock up claim for them. In the course of
few days the two men returned without
Clouzer but had several horses with them
Suspicion was aroused about the horses and
the two men disappeared it is supposed by
means of skif down Snake river. This
was the last seen of the men, and the horses
were afterwards proven to have been stole,,
and were reclaimed. Clouzer is reported to
have had in his possession considerable of
money and the whole affair is supposed to
have been deeoy TO murder and rob him.
The pc, pie of the Assotin should look into
| this matter and ehdcavor to erase from the
history of their country the record of so foul
an act or meet out justice tn these otfeaders

THn i,EEP CUT BALL--The ball given on
Friday evening under the auspices of the
City Council was q creaitable and mcri-
torious affair. There were present over a
hundred couples and the music, supper and
general management was supervised in such
. manner that harmony measured the whole
proceeding. The ladies' of the city outdid
themselves in their efforts to appear one
more generous than another in donating
delicacies and substantials for the supper.
From the manner in which the people at
tended and otherwise patrenized this dance,
it is evident that the efforts of cur city
fathers in their work of grading Fifth ST.
have the appreciation of the entire commu
nifty The purse realized will enable the
city to prosecute the work on the grade
nearly to its completion. The dance was
| III the new Masonic Hall, and the supper
was served in the room underneath. Tbs
music was by the Quest Bros. band, and
dancers dispersed about 4.30 a. M.

The Pulse.

Many erroneous impressions prevail
about the pulse as indicative of health
or disease common notion being that
its beatings are much more uniform than
they really are. Frequency varies with
age, In the newborn infant the beat
ings are from 100 to 140 per minute ; in
the second year, from 100 to lis from
the seventh to the fourteenth year, 80 to
80; from the fourteenth to the twenty
first year, from rs to 85 from the TWEEN
ty-frst to the sixtieth year, from 70 to
rs. After that period, the pulse is gen.
orally thought to decline, but medical
authorities differ radically on this point,
having expressed the most contradictory
opinions. Young persons are often
found whose pulses are below 60, and
there have been many instances of pulses
habitually reaching 100, or not exceed
ing so, without apparent disease. Sex,
especially in adults, influences the pulse,
and in women it beats more rapidly than
in men. Muscular exertion, even posi-
ton, materially affects the pulse. Its
average frequency in healthy men is,
when standing, 81 when sitting, II
when lying, &c per minute in women
of the same age and in the same posi-
tions, 81, 81 and 79. In sleep the pulse
is considerably slower than in wakeful-
ness. In certain diseases, such as acute
dropsy, for instance, there may be nc
more than 20 or 80 per minute. Thus
one of the commonest diagnostic signs
is liable to deceive the most experienced
practitioner.-Dr. Foote'S Health

The Idol Bernhardt.

Sarah Bernhardt has made her debut on the
American stage, and the wires chronicle her a
great success. The play was Adriemne Ldcouo-
reur. When the second act was reached, half
a dozen elaborate floral pieces were sent to the
stage, and the audience shouted and cheered
until the curtain had been raised a half score of
times, Bernhardt bowling her Acknowledgements.
But the first scene in the last act was surpris-
ing. 1t is stated that even after the audience
a an inkling of the fervor of the great act
ress in the delineation of human suffering, the
throng was held spclLbound until the last
words were spoken and "Adrienne the Bern
hardt-fel to the floor dead. Then Berndardt
and Angelo were called to the front of the cur
tain and hearty American cheers greeted them.
The curtain fell at 11:30 O'Clock. 1t is estima-
ted that the box Office receipts for the first
night were upwards of $4,000. They would
have been triple that amount had there been
room enough within the building for all W
sought admittance. After the performance
Madame Bernhardt was serenaded at her hotel
at about 1890 o'clock by Gilmore's Band.
Nearly two thousand people we're in attendance
and cheered Continuously. She appeared at
the window of her apartments and bowed re-
peatedly to the crowd. The cheering was SO
enthusiastic as to quite drown the music. The
event was quite novel in its way to an American
public and showed that all fools, even in Amer
lea, were not all dead yet by a long shot.

insufficient Air.

No matter how perfect are all other
hyglenic conditions, good health can-
not be maintained If the air supply is
insufficient. The purest air will become
vitiated, resulting in disease, especially
In consumption, unless there is a CON
slant means of supply.
When the mortality from all causes
among the metropolitan police of Lon
don was only 80 in 1000, that of the
Foot Guards was al from consumption
alone. The barracks furnished the lat
ter only about one-fourth as much air
per man as is allowed in prison cells.
The armies of Europe generally are,
from a similar cause, characterized by a
large mortality. During the Crimean
war, the rate in the English army was
1872 per cent. of the total strength;
that of the French 80 while in our
civil war, with its open-air life, it was
less than 6. Camp-fever may be almost
banished by cleanliness and fresh air.
In 1760 DR.. Brocklesby, having built
a large shed as a hospital for wounded
soldiers, and the mortality proving won
derfully slight, though the treatment
was otherwise the same as elsewhere.
said, "I candidly ascribe their fortunate
CoSbHC A1OiO W uAO OC1Olb VI d pure,
keen air, which they breathed therein
every moment, than to all the medicine
they took" Thus, over a century ago,
he stumbled on a law of hygiene now
universally accepted by experts.
No expense was spared in the erection
of a new house for monkeys in the Lon
don Geological Garden, to make it as
much as possible like an English gentle
mans drawing-room. These animals
had been wintered in England several
years, and were healthy ON entering
their new house. But in one month fifty
of the sixty were dead, and the rest
were dying, of consumption. The whole
trouble was that the room was not prop
erly ventilated.
Before 1886 the loss of horses in France
by death was from 100 to 1877 per 1000.
Enlarged stables reduced the loss to sc
nearly two-thirds. In England the
loss is reduced to 20 I; in Germany to 15.
Let it not be forgotten that, where the
lack is not such as to produce fatal re
suits, it may variously impair the health.

Making a Dog Drunk,

As an evidence that whisky is an in
fallible antidote against poison, we will
state that Mr.. J. W. jackson, while out
on the prairie some few days ago with
his fne-blooded hunting dogs, had one
of them bitten by. an enormous mecca
sin snake. The reptile fastened his
fangs on the edge of the dogs tongue,
from which a perfect stream of blood is
sued. Such was the force of the virus
that the wound inflicted became instantly
black, and the dogs tongue and lower
jaw had commenced swelling rapidly
and alarmingly. The owner, having
with him a flask of whisky, lost no time
in pouring down the animals throat
about one-half of it. As soon as the
whisky took effect the dog lay stretched
out as if dead, but he was only drunk,
Is he soon revived from his stupor and
was seemingly as well as ever. The
place struck by the snake rotted and fell
out.-St. Landry (La,) Democrat.

Mr.. James Redpath, the well-known journal
list, is the Ireland correspondent of the Chicago
Inter-Oceas. Mr.. O'Donnel, Member of Par
lament from hungarian, has challenged him
to fight a duel, as q result of the following in
cident: "a few weeks ago Mr.. O,Donnel, with
Mr.. Julian Mccarthy and others, made appli-
cation for admission to membership in the Land
League. At yesterdays meeting a letter was
read from O'Donnel Withdrawing his applica-
ton. TIL reasons which prompted him to take
this step are said to be that at a recent meeting
of the League Mr.. Redpath used language in
sulting or un~complimentary to the Queen.
O'Donnel is one of the class of Irish politicians
who endeayor to ride two horses at the sam
time. He wants to be friendly with the Gov
eminent, and he always keeps pace with public
sentiment at home, but the Government being
the strongest and likely to be of the most bene-
fit to him, he naturally clings to it and drops
the people when it becomes a question between
the two. Mr..Redpath, filed with the belief
that Mr.. Parnell and his cause are in the right,
contributed an article to a Dublin paper, in
which he very efectually exposed Mr.. ODon-
ners course. He also lampooned tina gentle
man in true American style. The result is said
to be a challenge. Those who know Redpath
. believe that he will give O'Donnel all the salts
faction he wants.
