A PECULIAR GAME.
An Ex-Governor of Arkansas PLAYS
Draw.POker With His Dog.

A peculiar game of draw-poker was
played in the Merchants Hotel bar
room, in this city, yesterday afternoon,
by a gentleman of means who re.
Gently arrived here. The gentleman,
who is said to be an Ex-Governor OF
Arkansas, brought with him favorite
dog who is his constant companion,
and they frequently engage in lengthy
conversations in which the dog par.
ticipates by barks and yelps. Yes.
terday afternoon the Ex-Governor took
a pack of cards and, calling the dog
to him, said:
"Major, you and will play game
of draw-poker. If I get the best
hand l will take a Bourbon sour; if
you get the best hand l will buy you
two-bits' worth of meat. Now, cut
the cards.
The dog pushed about half the
deck over with his right paw, and his
master dealt out FIVE cards to each.
The dog got pair of jacks, an ace
and queen. His master got three
mines. Having discarded, the dog got
his third jack, and his master six and
queen.
"Well, Major" said the ex-Gov-
ernor, "you've won, and shall have
your meat. And must wait for din
ner before l can get my drink"

WARM SPRINGS CREEK.
A New Town Started-Ciaims that
Should be Opened I'm.


A party of gentlemen from the East
started out yesterday morning to en-
anime mines on Warm Springs Creek,
with the intention of investing in
good prospects They were pleased
with the Allen group, which is show
ing well SO far as developed. A new
town is being located near the group,
and the townsite is surveyed eight
miles from Kctchum, and near enough
to the Philadelphia Company's mines
and the other prominent locations on
Warm Springs Creek to accommodate
the miners with ordinary advantages
in the way of clothing, lodgings,
liquors, etc.
The Midnight mine is fair pros
pect, but not opened to advantage.
The party also visited the Minnie
group of mines; but found the snow
too deep to make satisfactory exam
ination. There is yet considerable
snow in that section, upon the north
hillsides, which is soft from recent
rains, while fallen timber underneath
makes progress almost impossible.
These gentlemen, as we'll as others
who have come here to the present
time, are surprised that so many
miners who have what they regard as
valuable claims, do not develop them
but endeavor to sell them on mere
surface showing, which is very diff
cult in any mining country. The mar
ket will be active this summer for
mines, they say, but locations not de-
veloped will be hard to negotiate,
and prospectors should make a note
of this.
The party will start out tomorrow
morning fully equipped for the Smoky
Mining District, to examine the prin-
cipal mines of that section.

Blood will Tell!

And this spring the blood in your
veins is sluggishly coursing, or is thin,
watery, and lacks vitality. This means
malarial or typhoid fevers, rheu-
matism, or affections Of the bladder or
kidneys before you are three months
older, unless corrected. Save your
self all the expense and suffering Of
sickness, by using at once that great
blood purifier, Sarsaparilla, Dandelion
and Iodide of Potassium prepared by
Brown Medicine Co. Delays are dan

The IRON HORSE.

he Is Snortins and Cavort,nr With,
E'sht Miles Of this Metropolis. and
may BE Here BY Nay LIST.
Work on the Wood River Branch
railroad is progressing as rapidly as
men ana means can push it. Last
night the conductor and engineer of
the construction train walked into Tie.
s'o'ng' f've miles below Haley, to at
TEND a ball, and said that their train
was less than three miles away-or
only eight miles from Haley. They
expected to reach Tie-siding by Sat-
urday' and to be in Haley by next
Tuesday.
Two shifts Of men now work on the
grade-one day and one night shift.
The shifts are of 10 hours each. On
the day-shift the wages are 81. rs, with
IS per week deducted for board. On
the night shift the wages are 1894
per night, with the usual charge (*6)
for board. Strange to say, scarcely
oO men have been secured for the
night shift so far, the men offered EN-.
ployment generally objecting to night
work. If offered day work, they OBJ
ject to the wages.
Work at night is carried on by
means of locomotive headlights made
for the purpose. The illuminating
fluid is coal oil, and the light is so un-
satisfactory that the same force can
not do half as much work at night as
during the day. But the night work
will nevertheless be continued until
HALEY is reached, as Mr.. Bradbury, of
the firm of Bradbury & Rinehart,
who have all the grading to do,
wagered 500 with Mr.. Way, the
Superintendent of Construction, four
days ago, that he would have the
grade completed to the terminus by
May l. Mr.. Way intends, if the
grade is completed, to have the track
laid to here on the evening of the
same day.

A NAN FOR BREAKFAST.
nut IL Is Only . Chinese Cook Killed
by Fellow. Celestial.


About 8 o'clock this morning some
excitement was caused by the dis
covery that Chinaman had been
murdered in Chinatown during the
night. Sheriff Furey and deputies
Immediately took the matter in hand,
and arrested a Ch,naman who is sus-
pected of having committed the muir.
der. The history of the case is as
follows:
During the past 26 years Joe.
Stevins, proprietor of the Nevada
Chop House, in Haley, has had in his
employ as cook a Chinaman who
worked for him in California and
Nevada, and, the past three years, on
Wood River. The Chinaman has
always been faithful cook, quiet and
inoffensive, and was distinguished in
HALEY by wearing whiskers.
WI. CIeVlnS mas OF late also en-
ployed a Chinaman to carry water
and meals out of the house. saw
wood, trim lights, etc.; but as he
broke the lamps and was of no &C.
count he was discharged Monday
last. He laid the cause Of his dis.
charge to the cook, who had nothing
to do with it, and as he threatened to
murder him on account of it Mr..
stevins advised him not to sleep in
Chinatown. Last night the dis
charged Chinaman effected an en-
trance into the cooks bedroom and
fired three shots into him while asleep.
Two entered the back of the head and
killed him instantly. The murdered
mans name is Tom Gou and the MUIR
derer is Ang All. The latter is now
in Jail and will All Swing.

THE DAVITT MINE.

1t is Being Put In Shape to Yield Ore.
Superintendent Chase, of the Davitt
mine, is pushing development work as
fast as two shifts can do it. He is
putting men to work wherever he can
place them to advantage, and having
a new wagon road made to the mine
to begin shipping ore as soon as posi-
BILE. There are but three stockholders
in the new Davitt company, and they
propose to work the mine for all there
is in it, even if in so doing. they
"knock the bottom out" This, Mr..
Chase does not fear, however, as more
ore is exposed everyday.

tongue has not been silent one as re-
CARDS this gossip nor has the Bulletin
refused to he vehicle for its dissemin-
alton, as tile paragraph copied from
the Clarion, which gave rise to this
discussion, and the extract above re-

Once there was bad woman whose
only occupation was to make "the tom
que of gossip wag the more" and speak
evil of her neighbors. This was her
only sin and she unconscious of that.
But in going to the confessional one
day Pharisee-like, believing that she
had committed no sin before God, aud
was better than "anybody" her eyes
were opened to the greatest of sins, ex.
cept ingratitude, and scandal monger
she "stood confessed" The good priest,
after advising with her took handful
of mustard seed and scattered them to
the four winds of heaven and babe her
gather them up, as penance for her
sin. She saw that although she had
been a good woman in other respects,
she was irritrievably damned. Take
