The Bonlon's Musical and Dramatic
Combination appeared in Union Church
Thursday and Friday evenings to
crowded houses and an appreciative
patronage. That the Boulons are tai
ented there is no room for doubt, and
the best evidence of their appreciation
here is i'll the very liberal patronage Sc
cured. We cannot take room to define
ate a criticism OF the various parts per-
formed here on the two evenings, but
pronounce the whole we'll worth attend
ing. Mr.. Boulon and family are, we
understand decided to remain on Wood
River through tile winter, and they will
furnish the towns of Bellevue, HALEY,
ketchum and Bullion with an excellent
ball room orchestra. as well as an occa-
sional entertainment. They are not
among strangers, and we hope Will have
many more friends among us.

Mr. VIM. Harris has made new strike
on the Harais location, on EIkhorn Hill.
He came to town Thursday with some
beautiful specimens of bright, solid ga
lena, which was found in feeder to the
main Harris ledge, about 100 feet west
of the discovery. It pitches into an
enormous quartz ledge, which seems
seperate from the discovery vein and
gives aattering indications of an i'm

the surface.
We are glad to see the old pioneers
getting rewarded for their frontier
hardships.

MORE ORE THAN WANTED.
The Philadelphia Company is Flooded
with Ore Shipmants from Bullion and
Other Camps. and is at Last Com
PEELED to Pat Limit on Receipts.

Ore receipts at the Philadelphia smell
tiers have finally grown SO large that the
company has, we understand, been
obliged to place limit on the purchase
OF high grade ores until such time
when an increased operation, or at least
greater capacity and better trans
portation than the winter season Will
allow, does away with the risk of too
much dormant capital. There is espec-
ial risk in the acceptation of high grade
lead ores at this season OF the year, since
the limited winter transportation may
render shipment impossible, or very
expensive, for several months During
this time bullion from ores naturally
almost bullion, lies on hand as dead
capital, causing great loss to the com
pany. Bullion turned out to lay over
till spring might just as well be worked
in the spring, and being purchased at
time, save the risk OF bleeding O live
industry.
