Colorado spiders are not to be
laughed at. In a cave near Buena
Vista they are the size of small birds.
and they make a strange sound while
weaving their web. While looking at
the cave miner examined the webs.
Their strands were about the size of a
No. 10 thread, and he thought that thev
could be used for thread. Having q
needle he broke off one of the strands
and found that it would just fit. Sew
ing on loose button he found il as
strong as silk, and that it answered
every purpose.

A Harsh Sentence.

In sentencing Clemetshaw to fourteen
years in the penitentiary, says the San
Francisco Exchange, Judge freedom over
shot the mark. OF course it will be held
that there is no crime so subversive Of the
administration Of justice as perjury. and
that when conviction is had for 50 grave a
crime. the perjurer should be made an ex-
ample Of, but for all Of that we believe
fourteen years is too long a sentence. Five
years would have been just as effective as
an example, and there would have been a
great deal more likelihood of Clemetshaw
serving out his sentence. The severity OF
the sentence imposed by Judge Freelon
will only excite q sympathy which will in
the no distant future result in q pardon.
As to whether Clemetshaw was guilty OF
willful perjury there may also be some
doubt. He could certainly have had
but one object in swearing falsely in the
De Young matter, anu that was to earn a
reward from those interested in the acquit-
tai of young Kalloch. The prosecution
utterly failed to show the existence Of any
such bargain, and hence it was possible
that Clemetshaw might have been mistaken
in his idea that De Young fired the first
shot. Take away the motive for perjury,
and you have pretty nearly disposed Of the
charge itself. We are not finding fault
with the verdict Of the jury in this case,
but we do believe Judge freedom was I'M
necessarily severe in imposing sentence.

SALT LAKE ITEMS.
From the Tribune of the 17th.l

thC AiAbuAC VI tAO
The Summit has recently struck some
good ore.
The cool wave which rolled over Zion on
Sunday night, appears to have extended as
far East as New York.
Mr.. A. A. Leonard, OF this city, has been
especially commissioned by Supervisor OF
Census Walker, to take the statistics of
manufactures, etc., in Zion.
1t is a sad spectacle to see the young eld-
ers in Israel at the lake on Holy Sabbath
day fill up with abominable beer and then
sing themselves hoarse with the hymns of
Zion.
The boys who stampeded to the Gunni-
son. last spring. are gathering to Zion
again nearly every day, very much dis
gusted They have lost their sum
mer's work, and a good deal of wealth
beside.
A number of tramps followed the circus
to the city and are now in a fair way to
land in the lookup. 1t is better to be a free
tramp on the wide spreading plains than a
prisoner in lions jug.
At Lake Point the proprietors keep a
mar floating around in the briney to res
cue women and children who happen to
get a dose of the water into their stomachs.
He has won the thanks of many q person
this season.
A miner named John Day, employed on
the Black Jack mine, Bingham. was
brought to this city last evening badly in
jnred from q premature blast in the mine.
He was taken to the Hospital. The
extent of his injuries is not yet known.

A Growing Camp.

The Virginia Chronicle Of the 18th says
Colonel Samuel T. Curtis, S~uperintend-
ent Of the Justice Mining Company, re-
turned yesterday from q three weeks
jaunt to Grantsville and other mining
camps. Grantsville, Colonel Curtis says,
is putting on all the airs Of a town, the
population is increasing rapidly, and town
lots are in demand at increasing prices.
There is considerable prospecting being
done in the vicinity. and there will doubt
less be many good mines discovered before
long. The Alexander mine, Colonel Cur
tbs says. has considerably improved in the
lower levels since his visit OF six weeks ago.
The lower level drift has disclosed an i'm
mense body OF ore below the water line,
and the face OF the drift is still in ore. The
twenty-stamp mill and furnace Of the COM
pany are kept going constantly, and twenty
additional stamps are being erected as rap

Blnir's Circus.

Eugene Blair failed to connect on the
circus. He was in charge Of the Hillside
mine and furnace at Bristol, and could not
get away without closing down the whole
business, which he seriously thought Of
doing for some days. Possibly he was
only prevented by the receipt Of a large
bundle OF bills and cuts which were for
warded to him by Bony Ayres and others.
These he posted on the side Of a big barn,
and all who visit Bristol are taken to see
the circus. A gentleman from Bristol in
forms us that Eugene has provided him
self with a long pole, and takes great de-
light in pointing out the good points in
the ground and lofty tumblers. He stirs
up the animals every time a stranger puts
in an appearance.
