ments. But a change has come over the
scene. Confidence has taken the place of
dependency and activity of sloth. In other
words, q boom has set in, and it promises to
be a big one.
During the period Of stagnation this spring
work went bravely on in the Wright s. Ed
wards tunnel. Operations on other leads,
probably as good, or better, stopped to learn
The result of the strike. Tie camp sat down,
SO to speak. to await developments. Not a
few were ready during this period of doubt
to pronounce the verdict of failure and evil
reports were industriously circulated.
Others, however, held to their faith in Bar
ker stoutly, to whom the result is peculiarly
gratifying.
The strike in the Wright & Edwards in
sures the permancy of that mine. 1t is one
of the most extensive deposits of ore found
in the Territory and its limits are yet un-
known. The Mining & Smelling Company
are satisfied that this mine alone will supply
them all the ore they ca turn into bullion
and the order has gone forth to increase the
capacity Of the works to 80 or 35 tons a day,
and before many weeks the smelter will be
ready to keep up this lick. Not less than
800 men will be employed constantly by the
company. which Of itself will give the camp
a considerably boom. But operations will
not be confined to the Wright & Edwards by
any means. Owners of leads throughout
the district have been greatly encouraged by
the late developments, and many of them
will start in to develop their properties.
There are doubtless dozens of leads in the
camp as good as the w. s. e. and Baoker,
which only require development to make the
fact apparent.
We understand that a force will soon be
put on the Barker, a property that will yet
be valued at millions, and that the Silver
Belle, Pittsburg and other leads are to be de-
veloped as rapidly as possible. Within a
year it will be found that the services Of
several smelters will be required to reduce
the ores taken out in the Barker district.
New business enterprises are springing
up, and already a small tide of immigration
is turned that way. Prof. n. A. Foss, super
intendent of the Clendenin Mining s. Smelt-
ing Company, writes for n all that will
doubtless there will be lively
in the gulch this fall.
Benton, if possible, is as much rejoiced
over the turn of affairs as Barker. The two
are SO intimately associated that prosperity
for the latter means increased trade and
progress for the former. The boom will
be mutual, and a big one, too.

DELEGATE MAGIN IS.

a few weeks ago q silly report was started
to the effect that Hon. Martin Maginnis, at
the end of his present term in Congress.
would take up his permanent residence in
Minnesota, where he formerly resided. The
RIVER Press at the time put itself on record
as believing that Major Maginnis had no
such intentions that he would not desert
the Territory hat has honored him as she
has no other citizen-and we are pleased
to learn that such is the fact. AS soon as
the rumor reached Washington Major Ma
ginnis promptly gave a denial over bis own
signature, as follows:

During the five years that the South
ern Seminary Of the Baptists has been at
Louisville, Ky, six mission schools have
been established and sustained by the stu
dents Last year there we're seven such
schools with an enrolled attendance Of
about thousand scholar; and the sermons
preached by the students and members Of
the faculty averaged 100 per month.
The meeting at the Baptist Church will
continue through the week, with services AT
1890 A. NJ. and $3.50 p. NJ. The preacher,
Rev. II. Allen Upper, is an able man and
an orator OF much power, and his sermons
show an earnestness and a sincerity in his
Masters cause that makes them apprecia-
ted by both saint and sinner. The discourse
on Sunday night from the text, "Allelujah,
the Lord God Omnipotent Reigneth," wa'
the climax Of series Of good sermons and
was indeed a most powerful and eloquent
effort While there have been but two adj
ditions as yet, the meeting is bound 10 be
productive Of great good in bringing the
denominations closer together and creating
greater love and respect, the one towards
the other. BY the express wish Of the pas
tor, Bro. Bruce, the preachers Of the other
denominations join in the worship and pray
or speak, as the occasion suggests. II is

RINK NorE.-The spectators enjoyed
the fun last Friday night more than at any
time this season, while the old regulars
express themselves as more than pleased
with the evenings entertainment. There
were a number OF beginners and hardly a
moment passed that some aching form was
not living PROSTATE in the floor, after inef.
feciual attempts TO break through It, A
young Law student was one OF the fellows
that persisted in showing the girls how
hard he could sit down without damage
either 10 his bones or 10 the floor and now
he ends Il much more comfortable TO stand
up when he recitss his lesson to Col. Hill.
Several OF the young ladies took violent
seats during the evening, bat We will not
call any names except To cay that IL was a
decided accident that caused Miss Cornie
Cooper TO loose her equilibrium. She is
one Of the best skaters and does not often
cut such figures. Miss Annie Brown is de.
veloping into the most scientific skater.
She can do many things impossible to the
average girl on wheels and does them %
gracefully as 10 make il pleasure 70 look
her. Among the gentlemen who attempt
the scientific, Bob Fennel IL the most sue
ossaful, with Walter 0sslsya cool second.
The latter Is almost as much Of a mashsr
on as of Of skates, while his inseparable
partner in MASKING, Jim Severance, Is just
too utterly too too in his blue shirt and
white sursingls. II is worth the admission
