NINE PUEcHAsED.-J. c. Lynch and
associates have purchased the Oneida
gold mine, in Oneida county, Idaho, for
Sl50,O0O. The ledge averages IA feet in
width, and shafts have been sunk on it
from 40 to 200 feet. The average assay
of the samples is $50, but should it work
only SIG per ton, the purchasers will all
make big fortunes. The water rights
have all been purchased, and mill will
be place just at the mine, and the ore
hoisted from the mine will be dumped
into the mill, requiring no second handl-
ing. Johnny will leave for New York

On Sunday last we made flying visit
to Bristol, and having not been there
since three years and half ago, of course
observed quite change. 1t is quite
nice little camp, pleasantly situated, but
owing to the furnace not running, was
not very lively, yet we met number of
millionaires on the street. A member of
we should see some fun before we de-
parted, and as he made his word good,
he has our sincere thanks.
JOHN DoNAHoE arrived from Silver
Reef on Monday morning. He reports
the trouble of the Stormont Company as
| being settled. The miners are at work
and the mill will soon start up.
1t is reported that half the silver half
| dollars circulatedin Montana are counter
feits, containing only l6 per cent. silver
1t is believed that they are made by
| Chinese.
A MAN, whose eyes are not decorated
with mourning, is considered out of
fashion in Bristol and is prohibited asso-
ciating with those dressed in style.
IT is the general impression here that
the accident which Mr.. Grayson met
with may be the means of retarding the
affairs of the Day Company

their votes, while those who reside in

A FATAL OVERDOSE.
T.. q. Dahf6erg Meets Sudden Dealt
From an Orertiase of Morphine.

e. &. Dahiberg Meets a Sudden Death
From Oreriose Of Morphine.
Early yesterday morning news was received
at the GLOBE Office that man had committed
suicide in room over the saloon at the corner
of Second avenue and Second street south. A
GLOBE reporter was at once dispatched to the
above mentioned place, who, arriving there,
obtained the following facts:
1t seems that Mr.. Dahlberg has been suffer-
ing for some time from rheumatism, which
rendered sleep almost unobtainable, and he has
been in the habit of taking morphine in small
quantities to allay the pain. and on
Tuesday night finding the first dose
insufficient he arose and took second
and it proved fatal one Mr.. Dahlbergs
room mate states that when he awoke yester.
day morning ne found him (Dahlberg) breath
ing heavily, and tried to arouse him, but fall-
ing in this he ran for doctor. Before one ar
rived, however, it was too late, life being ey-
tinct.
The body was taken in charge by undertaken
Prendergast, and the coroner notified. The
suicide theory proved unfounded, as Mr..
Dahlberg was in good circums tances, being a
machiniss in the employ of o. A. Pray & Co /,
at $275 per day. He has been resident of this
city for eight or nine years.

POOR NEWS WIVES.

The trouble is, none Of our young
women are willing to become poor mems
wives. professedly, even though they
may be so in reality. The girl who
marries upon 81, 900 year looks forward
to life spent in second-rate boarding
houses, from which she will squeeze
out a certain cheap domesticity and
some expensive pleasures The children
| which Heaven may send are not thought
of nor provided for It is q question
whether the young wife can make her
self dress, or prepare herself whole
some meal of victuals. She marries
for freedom, to have a good time, to
spend money which she neither earns,
nor helps to earn-for Heaven knows
what-but certainly not to make COM
Portable, if humble, home for her hus-
band. In this respect we consider the
British girl has an immense advantage
over the American. From the highest
to the lowest circles of society In Brit
ain. girls are trained to make good and
useful wives, inasmuch as ladies preside
over the departments of their household
and see that everything is kept clean,
and the food is well cooked; so also in
the lower classes mothers teach their
daughters to do the same for themselves,
without suffering any loss of dignity in
the doing of it. Many of our
American girls will be surprised
to learn that the Princess Louise
frequently makes her pastry-and
makes it we'll, too. On one occasion,
some apricot tarts of her making being
praised by guest, the royal lady wrote
out the recipe, with the words under
lined, eff you desire to have an apricot
tart properly cooked, always make it
with an upper crust!" The story has
point, and the point is that one can
never know how to do thing too well.
One of the great hindrances against get
ting a good wife arises nom the laiSe
basis upon which society is constructed.
The idea that equality is the peculiar
birthright Of all Americans is erroneous.
Where every person thinks he or she is
as good as the next, there IS always the
opposite proof of incompetency. A
person is neither better nor worse than
another except in the degree OF worth
which is honestly sought to be attained.
But the dispositions Of young women
of the present day (and the same may
be said largely Of young men, though
perhaps not to the same extent) is to
think they are as good as any one else,
without taking the trouble to be so.
From this erroneous belief arises many
of the evils from which society suffers.

TERBATIM REPORTING.

There are few speeches, save the mos4
elaborate and studied ones, which will
bear the test of critical reading and dis
section. Yet speakers are always raving
because they are not reported verbatim.
American statesmen are not the only
ones who complain that their oratiOps
are taken liberties with by the reporters.
The same complaint is constant one
with English members of Parliament.
Verbatim reports are their constant de-
mand. Yet, as rule, verbatim reports
show the speakers up to be downright
fools.
DR.. Stoddart tried them once in Lon
don in the NeaU Times, and set the pub
lie laughing from one end of the country
to the other. Lord Castlereagh exhibit
ed himself as " standing PROSTATE at the
foot of Majesty" and as walking for
ward with his back turned on himself"
Sir Fred Flood, one Of the Irish mem
bers, and great stickler for verbatim re-
ports, appeared one morning as having
on the previous evening enlightened
and delighted the House with the follow
ing profound philosophy and brilliant
eloquence
"Mr. SPEAKER: AS I was coming down
to this House to perform my duty to the
country and Ould Irelandt, I was bru-
tally attacked, Sir, by mob, MIR. Spak-
er, of ragamufins, Sir. If, Sir, any
honorable gintleman is to be assaulted,
Mr.. SPEAKER, by sucha parcel of spalpeens,
Sir, as were after attacking me, Mr..
SPEAKER, then say, Mr.. SPEAKER. that if
you do not, MIR. SPEAKER, be after pro-
tecting gintlemin like myself, Sir, we
cannot be after coming TO the House of
Parliament, at all, at all, Mr.. SPEAKER.
And, Sir, may I be after axing you, Sir,
what, Sir, would heeome, Sir, of the
business of the country, Mr.. SPEAKER, in
such case, Mr.. SPEAKER? Will you, Sir,
be after answering myself that question,
Mr.. SPEAKER? It's myself that would
like an answer, Sir, to the question, Sir,
as soon as convanient, Sir, which have
asked you, Mr.. SPEAKER"
This proved complete extinguisher
to Sir Frederick Floods penchant for
verbatim reporting. He went, the day
on which his Grafton appeared, to the
editors Of all the morning papers, and
said he would thereafter leave his
speeches to "the discration Of the re-
pOrthers."

LONDON Printing and Paper Trades
Journal: So Printing is trade in which
the eyes are so severely strained that
any suggestion which may tend to miti-
gate this is worthy of consideration. An
ingenious optician has lately introduced
a contrivance of the nature of a shade
which promises to be useful in this di-
rection. It is something like the ordi-
nary clip glasses, only without the
glasses, and with only half frame. The
portion OF frame remaining is, however,
shaped so as to present the appearance
of gigantic eyebrow, and it efectually
protects the eye from the downward
glare of gas-burner. We imagine that
readers, especially, would find this in
strument very useful"
A COUPLE arrived at San Francisco on

to commit suicide. She agreed, and

SCRyING THE TOP RAILS.

When Vicksburg fell, Gen. A. J.
Smith was sent to Columbus, Miss, and
relieved Gen. Asboth. While upon an
expedition soon after into Tennessee.
the Federal soldiers, as was very often
the case, made their camp-f fires Of fence
rails. One evening native came to
Gen. Smiths tent and complained il
very forcible language that the soldiers
were burning his fence rails. The Gen
eral replied that he had given strict Or
ders that his soldiers should take no
rails but the top ones, and if he could
discover any of them disobeying orders
he would have them punished, and told
the man to go and see If they were tax
ing anything but the top rail. In a few
minutes he returned, saying they were
taking everything on the fence. The
General started with him to find the
culprits. The fence was fast disappear
ing. The complaining native said:
"Don't you see
eyes" replied the General, "but l
see they only take the top rail.
eyes but they commence at the top
and they GO clear to the ground. 7"
"Exactly, but you can't point out one
of my soldiers taking any rail but the
one on top"
This was too much for the non-com-
batant, and, with an indescribable look
on his face, he turned and walked off.

SENTIMENT AND SENSE.

Miss Goodman tells how the English
Sisters of Mercy observed Romish
chaplain, for some months to pass
away the time in tending pet lamb,
which he led about by scarlet string
md how in the early morning he might
be seen gathering the rose-leaves with
The dew yet upon them, as breakfast
for the gentle creature. They were
quite concerned, one morniy 3, at per-
ceiving the priest about to ts ye his walk
unaccompanied by his favorite, and
passed, in haste, across the hall to in
quire for it; to their great grief he in
formed them that the lamb was killed.
They waited for the particulars of his
untimely fate, concluding the savage
dogs to be guilty; but the most unro-
mantle father went on to say, ''I found
j. in excellent condition; feeding an
animal on rose leaves certainly improves
the meat" "Think, says DIR. Boyd, of
st. Andrews, "of the great author,
walking in the summer fields, and say
ing to his wife, as he looked at the
frisky lambs, that they seemed to be SO
innocent and happy, he did not wonder
that in all ages the lamb had been taken
as an emblem of happiness md ihno-
cence. Think of the revulsion in his
