Continued Prosperity Of the Camp
The Hecla Company's and
Other Mines.

Editor Butte Miner:
Our lively little camp has again started up
with Il new boom. The find in the At. ants
mine has proved to be q much more impol-
tant one than was expected. New ore bod
les are being uncovered every day, and the
mines are now for the first time in the pres
ent year showing fine reserves. The Cleo
patra improves in size and quality as depth
is attained. On account Of the scarcity OF
men very little work has been done OH the
Mark An ony, Ariadna aud Hecla. The
three named are new mines and from their
showing on the surface one would consider
them a. good as the old mines which have
been worked. The John Thomas 10 looking

Kepler has been prospecting on tho Oneida
Lode and has again struck ore. The Cleve,
Avon, Franklin and Trapper Lodes are
looking we'll. The ore from these mines y

large veins. When the Company put up
mills for the treatment Of these ores aud
work all their mines to their full capacity We
will have q camp second only to the Silver

The work of the present season has DEM
onstrated that the ore is continuous and the
future of the camp is assured. The Compa.
ny has taken up a new mill site and water
right and ground will be broken anil prepa'
rs,iops made for the large concentration
which they expect to have running by June
1st. This will be a fine thing for tha camp
as well as for the Company, as they have now
about 1900 tons of second class ore on theil
dump besides large quantities in sight in
the mines. The concentrator will be of loo
tons daily capacity, and viii! give employ
ment to a large number of men besides the

. DEMOCRATIC WOE PRESI-
DENT.

The question Of the succession in the event
Of the death Of the new President Is one to
which public attention is now beginning to
be directed. The President of the Senate is
next In order Of succession after the elevation
Of tho Vice President to the Chief Magis-
tracy The Senate was unable to organize
last spring on account of the deadlock at that
time, and now has neither President or Sec.
rotary. The resignation Of the W. Senators
from New York, and the death of Senator
Burnside, Of Rhode Island, has brought
about q change in the political situation since
that time. Although these three vacancies
have been filled, it is held that the creden-
tials of the successors cannot be received by
the Senate until IL has been duly organized.
Senator Dawes, of Massachusetts,, holds these
views. A Washington dispatch Of the 22d
says: "Senator Dawes called on the Fresi-
dent to-day. He strongly advised calling all
executive session, and pointed out that
no political results would DO affected by an
early session. The Senate is Democratic,
but N more 20 than It will be in December.

With these additions to. Republican side there

ton with the country by INDUCING in anoth'
or wransle. ,Eithsr would prefer to suffer

''It was you who we're to forgive me,
I believe" said Laura, demurely, her
lips quivering, ready to cry and to
laugh, too.
Mrs. Stetson, will you allow me to
whisper ?" asked straightforward Bart.
Certainly" said the old lady, her
heart beating quicker. What was going
to happen !? Had poverty done it's worst
for them? Was there, indeed, bright
hope for the future?
Bart put his full shining beard close
to Laura's ear, and the second time said
the mystic words that had so long lin
gered in her memory.
Laura did not repulse him. He felt
then that her heart belonged to him, that
it had never gone out to any other.

A Very Romantic story.

A strange and romantic story reaches
us from Olmutz, having for its hero q
young infantry Lieutenant named Pohl,
belonging to an Austrian regiment at
present quartered in that ancient garri-
son town. 1t would appear that some
twenty years ago or more Gen. Prince
Ruspoli, accompanied by his bride, to
whom he had been married barely a
month, happened to visit Olmutz in the
course of his wedding tour. While So
journing in the principal hotel the Prin-
cess was suddenly taken i'll, and brought
into the world healthy male child. For
reasons that may be readily understood,
the youthful couple resolved to conceal
this event from their respective families,
and induced an Austrian officer to adopt
the infant under solemn promise that
their secret should be faithfully
kept by him during. their lives.
Pohl, the officer in question,
brought up his adopted son to his own
profession, and the lad has turned out o
gallant and assidnous soldier. On the
Sth OF last May Prince Ruspoi died in
Paris, and it is alleged that on his death
bed he confessed the existence of a son
in Olmutz, born in lawful wedlock, but
passing by the name of Pohl, who turns
out to be the Young Lieutenant above
alluded to. AS the greater part OF the
late Princes property, valued ut be-
tween 5000 900 and G700, 900, is strictly
entailed upon his eldest son, it will
naturally fall to the lot of this fortunate
youth, as we'll as the title, one of the
most ancient and illustrious in Italy.
He has, according to leading Viennese
journal, already received a communica-
ton from his brother, Prince Ruspoli,
Jr., disinherited by this amazing dis
covery, informing him that the Prince
had Indignantly refused a proposition
made to him contidentially by re-
nowned Italian brigand to assassinate the
long lost heir for the moderate consider
alton of ESQ sterling. 1t is to be hoped
that His Highness will amply provide
for a relative who has given him so
striking and conclusive proof OF his
high minded disinterestedness.- Lon
don Telegraph.

HOUSE AND FARM.

Breakfast Cakes.-To make warm
weather breakfast cakes, take one cup OF
molasses, one cup of brown sugar, nearly
one cup of butter, or lard and butter
mixed, one cup of sour milk, four cups
of -four, four teaspoonfuls Of soda mot
heaping, but even fully one teaspoonful
each of cinnamon, salt and ginger, one
egg; bake in gem tins. These will keep
we'll for week.
Corn CAKES FOR Two.-Sift cupful
of cornmeal into bowl or tray, make a
hole in it, put in salt, soda and shorten
ing, as for biscuit, break in two eggs,
stir with a strong spoon until the eggs are
we'll broken and mixed. then, with new
buttermilk or sour milk, make into u bat
ter. Bake in brisk oven; have the cakes
three fourths of an inch thick when it
goes into the oven.
Blackberry Syrup.-Make a simple
syrup of pound of sugar to each pint
of water; boil until it is rich and thick;
then add to it as many pints of tho ex
pressed juice of lipe blackberries as
there are pounds of sugar put half a
nutmeg grated, to each quart of the
syrup; set it by to become cold; then
bottle it for use. A tablespoonful for
child or a wine-glassful for an adult is a
dose, and will prove valuable medicine
in case OF diarrhGa or dysentery.
Savory Rice-Chop an onion very fine
and fry it in butter till it be of gold
color; then stir in teacupful of rice;
let it cook in the butter few minutes,
stirring all the time; then add one pint
of good gravy and let it simmer slowly.
When nearly cooked, put little grated
nutmeg, Parmesan cheese, salt and pep
per to taste. Mix it up we'll, and when
thoroughly done let it stand few min
utes before the fire, and just before serv-
ing stir in small piece more of butter.

LUCRErIA GARFIELD.-The sorrow
Lucretia Garfield is added to the Nations
sorrow. Her wifely heroism has been
none the less admired by the world be-
cause it is heroism born Of . devotion
common to her sex, She has bravely
done her duty to the man to whom in
his poverty she pledged her woman's
love. Standing beside him at the coro-
nation of his ambition in the hour of his
glory, she looked upon him with wo
mans pride, but in the dark days jus
ended go miserxbly to her, it was wife
~ love, destitute Of all vain glory, with
which, in full view Of Christendom, she
ministered to the wounded form OF her
dying husband. His was brave strug-
gle for life that has become historic for
its manly courage, and with the history
there is linked the impershable name OF
Q wife a. great as he in all that makes
greatness worth living or dying for in
the eyes Of men.

MAKING GIRLS STRAIGHT.-The Hin
doc girls are gracefully and exquisitely
formed. From their earliest childhood
they are accustomed to carry burdens on
their heads. The water for family use is
always brought by the girls in earthen
jars, carefully poised in this way. The
exercise is said to strengthen the mus
cles of the back, while the chest is thrown
forward. No crooked backs are seen in
Hindostan. DR.. H. Spray says this ex-
ercise of carrying small vessels of water
on the head might be advantageously in
troduced in boarding schools and private
fomilies, and that it might entirely super
sede the present machinery of dumb
bells, b)ackboards and skipping ropes,
etc. The young ladies ought to be
taught to carry the jar as the Hindoo
women do, without ever touching it with
their hands. The same practice leads to
precisely to the same results in the south
of Italy as in India. A Neapolitan fe-
male peasant will carry on her head o
vessel full of water to the brim over a
rough road ami not spill a drop of it.
and the acquisition of this art or knack
gives her the same erect and elastic
gait.

A Yesterday great curl.
osity was placed on our table "a deer's
neart containing the flint barb of an
arrow. Last Sunday Mr.. E. Sharp, of
Arcata, was out on Boynton's prairie on
q deer hunt. He saw large five point
buck, and brought it down with his
rifle. Taking off the hide and securing the
heart and other rare bits, he started home.
On arriving there, Mrs. Sharp boiled
the heart, and when the meal was ready
placed it on the table. In attempting to
cut the heart, the knife struck some
thing hard. The lady split the heart
open, and in the flesh part the flint barb
OF the arrow was found. It must have
been there Q long time, as the flesh was
caloused all around it, and the scar,
where the barb entered, is plain to be
seen. This IL quite curiosity, as only
a few such instances are known to be on
record.-[ Humboldt (Cal.) Times.

A French proverb says: "Tell me of
man. friends and will tell you of him
self" In the same way we might judge
much of mans character by knowl-
edge of his favorite books. Erasm US held
that books were the necessities of life,
and clothes the luxuries. They have been
the greatest motive power in all times.
"It is books" says French writer,
"that have made revolutions" A great
book is greater thing than great bat
tie Even works of fiction have exer-
cised ihcalculable power on society; in
them politics have assumed lighter
character, and subjects agitating the
minds of statesmen have been familiar
lied to the people. The New York Times
recently called attention to the political
novels that have left marked trace on
nations, instancing Sir Walter SCOTS in
Auencc over the English prejudice of his
day against the native land, and the tide
of interest and enthusiasm which set in
for everything Scottish after the pub
LEGATION of his first romance. So too
Rabelais in France, and Cervantes in
Spain, liberated the ideas of the people
by the instrument of ridicule, satirizing
the overblown chivalry and hypocritical
monkery of their age, and amusing the
masses while they unmasked the sancti-
monious mummery of the higher orders.

There is, indeed, something depress-
ing in the thought of the power of books
whether for good or for evil. Hazlitt
wrote that intellect only is immortal and
words the only things that last forever.
Such reflection weights with terrible
responsibility the writers of evil words,
the transmitters of impure, degrading
and debasing thoughts; the authors, who
for love of greed, or as often from love
Of sensation, bring forth out of their own
purient imaginations the noxious off
spring of vice and immortality. No
words, spoken or written, are strong
enough for the condemnation OF the
poisonous literature, which even in the
enlightenment of our own day is sold
openly in the cars, and eagerly read by
thousands. What terrible reflection it
must be for such writer's that the very
power which. rightly used, could infiu-
ence the rising generation to pure and
high.souled efforts is employed to poison
their imaginations and fill their minds
with enticing pictures of impure pleas
ures. One cannot get away from book
that has once been read. The compan-
ionship of thoughts is terribly close:
ones friends one may evade, ones ene-
mics one may avoid, but the written
words, the unspoken thoughts that we
have once admitted to the shrine Of our
minds, aie there forever.

GUITBAu THE assassin plays the part
of a mailman well, but there is entire
ly too much system about 1t, TO create
ali impression that he is irresponsible
for his acts. His desire to speak in his
own behalf on the first day Of his trial
is onl : an exhibition of that EGG tism
which has marked his whole sinful ca
reer. Notwithstanding the undisputad
evidence of hi. guilt there are indica-
tions ttat the trial which commenced
yesterday Will by no means be the sim.
pie and summary process which the
popular imagination had anticipated
Il might not unreasonably be supposed,
as it was supposed in the present case,
that when an assassin is taken red
handed in a crime, which had evident
ly fcen perpetra,ed with malice afore-
thought and after deliberate prepare.
ti0n, the trial by court of law would
be little more than a matter of form.
But there seems to arise grounds upon
which the assassin Of President Garfield
Can be stu 5bOrnly and perhaps success
fully defended, and the course of the
trial will be followed with keen inter.
est both BY the public and the legal
profession.
