Successful BOY Hunters.

AlbAEy (Or.) Democrat
One day last week T. P. Mcknight,
proprietor Of the pleasure resort at
Lower Soda Springs, started out with
his son Charley to hunt for elk across
the Santiam. After going a few miles
they discovered an elk, and Charley
succeeded in killing it. They skinned
it, and taking a part of the meat on
their backs and covering up the re-
mainder they came home. Thinking
that some wild animal might carry
away the meat left behind before they
could return for it the noxtday, Char.
Icy and his little brother Clyde, taking
their blankets, guns, and dog, started

WARNED TO a
A Citizen or Cuba threatened
with $50 Lashes.

The following letter was found Q
day or two since near the residence Of
Mr.. G. w. Ethridge, a citizen of this
county, who lives about one mile from
Cuba:

Accused so mulch.
Mr.. Etbridge seems to be a quiet,
peaceable citizen. He is a native Of
Rutherford county. in this State, and
after living in Missouri, Arkansas and
other States, came to Memphis about
nine years ago. His father lives not
far from Galloway Station. Mr..
Ethridge married a widow who had a
good farm about three years ago, and
they have lived happily together on it,
he states, ever since. 1t seems, how
ever, that he is in somebody's way,
and is therefore notified to move on,
60 out West and grow up with the
country, or otherwise get out Of the
way. The most of the people around
Cuba are law.abiding, hospitable, good
citizens, and should not be held to
blame for the acts of the few who may
be disposed to disturb the peace. Mr..
Ethridge was in the city to-day, and
said he would go back home and at
tend to his business as usual. He is
confident that he knows the author Of
the letter. The handwriting is plain
and natural, and could no doubt be
identified if necessary.

Minnesota still retains the stigma of
reputation. The Supreme Court a
few days ago, after the question had
been deliberately argued, issued a
writ Of prohibition against further
proceedings on the part Of the tribunal
authorized by the last Legislature to
adjust its defaulted bonds. Those
bonds, with accrued interest, amount
to between seven and eight millions
OF dollars. The Supreme Court de-
termines the act Of reference is uncon-
stitutional, because any project to pay
the bonds must be submitted to the
popular vote. But this submission
was made once before, and defeated
by about the average Republican ma
jority which rules the State. The
Court besides the repudiating amend
ment Unconstitutional, and RENTS the
whole matter to the Legislature for
its action.

back, expecting to camp with it. Soon
after arriving at their destination
they discovered a couple Of elk, and by
slipping upon them managed to kill
both.
A few moments aiterward the dog
commenced a terrific barking q short
distance off, and above the noise could
be heard the peculiar sounds made by
the calf ofthe elk. The boys rushed
to the spot as soon as possible, and
found a young elk calf, probably about
two weeks old. OF course they cap
tured it. No boy would lose such an
opportunity to capture such a rare
animal; but they were not to get it
without a struggle. Hearing a noise
close by, they glanced up, and we're
almost petriied by seeing the old
coming to the rescue OF the young.
She was only about twenty or thirty
feet away, and coming like a whirI-
wind. With her horns down and her
hair turned the wrong way, she was a
sight to try the nerves Of enc of
old.time hunters.
No time was to be lost. A seconds
delay might result in the death Of both
boys; but Charley was equal to the
occasion. Grasping his gun he drew
sight on the animal, and shooting
when she was actually only about ten
feet off, caused her to turn almost a
somersa ult, and dropped at their feet
dead. Charley is only Is years old
and small of his age, and CLYDE is

MINING MEETIoN.

The Golden Gate mine, Volcano, bids
fair to become one of the permanent mines
of the county. Sinking is progressing,
and good rock is being taken from the
shaft. The works are in first-class order,
the lode widening as the shaft descends,
and the ore growing richer.
The Carson (Nevada) appeal says
Everyone who comes from Candclaria
appears to be in rsptures about the
mining future Of that camp and its imme.
diate vicinity. The mines which have so
far been developed are showing better than
ever, and by next spring there will be a
rush to that locality"
Word has been brought in from the
Winston mine, i'll the San Gabriel canyon.
that large body of very rich ore was
struck in the tunnel yesterday. MIR. Rob-
erts says the ore is as rich as ever has been
taken from the mine Ii SO, it must be of
wonderful value, for ore assaying S24. .000
to the ton has been taken from the Win
ston claim. m.-[Los Angeles Express.
The Placer Argus says that the iron
mine Just across Bear river from that
county is temporarily closed down, owing
to want of sufficient coal with which to
run it. When the kilns now in process of
construction are completed there will be
twenty-six in all, and 1t ia believed their
capacity will be sufficient to insure
greater regularity in the running of the
work.
The Amador gravel claim, located two
miles east of Jackson, is to be started up
for e final effort to hunt up paying lead.
For over couple of years mining has been
carried on, with brief intervals of suspen-
sion, at loss to the stockholders. 1t
seems no pay dirt has been struck to
amount to anything so far. The stock
holders, however, have determined to
puugIe up few mora Thousands to prospect
around the ancient river bed supposed to
lie in that vicinity. II tie search this heat
proves fruitless, j. is probable that the
liver of geological times will be let se-
verely alone by the stockholders henceforth
and forever.
