A Lost Lake.

Red Fish Lake, above S.wtooth
City, on the summit of the Sawtooth
range of mountains, in the Wood
River region, Idaho, has dropped
through the bottom. The lake had
an area of several miles and was
many fathoms in depth. It was on
the summit of one of the peaks OF the
range, some II 900 feet above the ele-
walton of the sea, and surrounded by
heavy timber, which rendered it a
delightful place of resort in the sum-
mer for camping fishing and boating
parties. The lake has been there since
the white man has known the coun-
try, says the HALEY Times, but late
ly-the day is not known-the
bottom fell out. The country forma-
ton is granite and limestone, and an
immense fissure has been opened,
whether caused by a separation or
settling of the earth's surface, or
from volcanic action is not known.
At present the bed of the lake is dry,
and presents the appearanceof a deep
gorge or valley on the summit of the
mountains. This lake has always
contained millions of fish, and been
q favorite resort fer deer, bear and
other game. Where the fish went to
is as much of a mystery as where the
water went.

New School Buildings.

The crowded condition of the pub
lie school buildings, both in the city
and at Walkerville, last winter, rem.
dered the necessity for more ample
accommodations very palpable. The
question of erecting at least two new
school buildings was considered at a
meeting of the school trustees held
Thursday evening and it was decided
to submit to a vote of the people a
special tax proposition to raise S., 900
for the purpose. A special election
to vote on the proposition will be
held on Friday, August Sd. Should
the tax levy be ratified by the people
it is probable that school buildings
will be erected at VAUDEVILLE and on
East Park street, in both of which
districts a room was rented for school
purposes during the past term.

MINING
Narrow Escape of Three Miners
in the Easley Mine.

At o'clock yesterday morning an
accident occurred in the Easlev mine
in which three mines were only
saved by a miracle from instant
death. The men were working in
the bottom of the two hundred
foot level. They had loaded a
bucket with waste. which was being
hoisted. About fifty feet abo se them
n side of the b icket caught on a
projecting timber, aud its entire con-
tents of nearly a ton of large pieces
of rock was dumped, without an in
stant's warning upon their heads.
Very remarkably two of the men es-
capped injury. One man, Thomas
Roberts, was struck by several piece
of rock, one cutting his face and nose,
another striking his hand which was
badly bruised, and another falling
upon his right foot MASKING it in a
terrible maj e r The second toe was
so badly mashed as TO necessItate am
putatior. The third toe was frac-
tured and the foot much lacerated.
The wounded nan was conveyed to
the Butte City Hospital where his toe
was amputated ard his wourd Is dress
ed. The accident was ca lsed by
warped planking, the ends of which
curled up and projected SO as to
catch the bucket. Nothing could be
more dangerous in a shaft where
buckets are used, ana this accident
will not be without profit, if b. its
managers of other mines are
induced to repair their shafts, too
many of which present the same OPP
/ ortunities for q similar accident.

This might be a good arrangement

which was holly resented by the

weight, won the battle by a fine dis
play of pluck and old-time sand.

Accident at BOZeman.

The Bozeman Chronicle has an &C.
count of an accident which occurred
to DR.. and Mrs. Carol on the Fourth
of July and came very lea result
ing fatally to the lady. In driving
from the track to Bozeman the Doc
tors horses became frightened at the
running teams, shouts of drivers and
the excitement which invariably at
tends the races. In raising ur to
strike one of his horses the doctor
was precipitated over the dashboard
of the carriage and fell underneath
unframed. In falling he had taken the
lines with him, which gave the mad
dened horses full sway and left Mrs.
Carol at their mercy. The Mortified
spectators of the runaway are unable
to describe her fall, but it is supposed
the carriage struck a hole, throwing
the unfortunate lady fully 20 feet.
She was picked up and brought to
town, and it was feared at first that
she was fatally injured, but proper
medical aid and careful nursing will
undoubtedly bring her around all
right.

Does Mining Pay?

The question has usually been ans
wered by the proposition that for
every dollar put into the ground an
other dollar is extracted end added
to the wealth of the nation, and as
the original dollar is still in ~circula-
ton the world is enriched by the
operation two for one. This may be
a fine theory of political economy,
but it is very unsatisfactory tothe hon
est miner who didn't come to this
country entirely for his health.
From the most reliable statistics, the
Mining World, published in New
York city, learns that during the 80
years previous to 1850 there was ex-
pended in the purchase of mines,
and in expenses arising srom the de-
veIopment of them, $500, OOO, 600. The
cash returns from this expenditure
for the same time nets So. OOO, OOO, 900,
thus giving an actual profit of nearly
800 per cent. on the investment made.
1t would seem from these figures that
the mining industry not only pays,
but that it is the most profitable bust
ness now open for the Investment of
capital.

Bozeman less than hour after

Judge Wade perform the mar
riage ceremony uniting the Sec
rotary and his neice ~ in the holy
bonds of wedlock? Was she his
niece, his cousin or otherwise? Is
she the same person that be brought

be that the Herald and Independent

An'Indian Lynching.

A Nevada exchange has informa-
ton of the lynching by his tribe, in
Butte valley, of a buck who killed
his squaw, a young Indian woman,
who was a favorite with whites and
reds alike. AS soon as the news got
out the tribe held a consultation,
ropes were procured, and the MUIR
derer was dragged about till his per-
secutors tired of the amusement. He
was then hitched to a horse, and the
cruel work of persecution and death
was completed. When they got
through pulling the dead and man
gled body over the rough hills it was
torn in a most fearful manner and
past recognition. Minnie, the squaw
whom the buck killed, was raised by
Mrs. Gedney in Butte valley, and
was quite intelligent and very polite
for one of her race.

Claim Owners Stand in Their
Own Light.

The following remarks from the
HALEY Times are quite as applicable
to Summit Valley District: George
Hearst is quietly taking in the situa-
ton on Wood River, and goes daily
to inspect various mine properties.
1t is a mistake to suppose that the
present lack of activity in mine sales
is due to the lack of capital seeking
investment. Gentlemen represent
ing an aggregate of $27, 600, 900 have
been in Wood River during the past
mon his, and the reason given by
them for not investing is that pres
pectors place too high a valuation on
u~ndeveloped claims" .

was driven around the Agricultural

who was elected Vice-President of

will no doubt visit other parts Of the
