In an interview with Dir. J. w
Young, who has Just returned from
the Coeur d'Alene mines, we gathered
the following information The wealth
er at the mines has been very cold
with snow falling almost daily. The
depth Of the snow is from FIVE to seven
feet. Parties who have Bintered there;
say that the past week has been the
coldest Of the season. Pack animals
had been travelling from Evolution
into Eagle City up to last Wednesday,
when the trail became temporarily
blocked with the drifting snow. Il
was expected that the trail would
again be opened IN a day or two. On
account Of the SHOWS the merchants
had run the prices Of almost all arti-
eles up. several points. Flour is quoted
at fifty dollars a barrel; hams, forty
five cents; stove-pipe. seven dollars
and a half a joint; meals at the res
taurant are one dollar each; a shave.
fifty cents; barr cutting. one dollar;
butter from one dollar to one dollar
and half per peand: wood at twelve
dollars per cord; a sheet iron cooking
stove. seventy-6ve doliars; and house
broom FIVE dollars. Gambling at faro
bank and stud-poker is the prevailing
Of nearly all, and the bus
mess Of a few. It's not an uncommon
to see a pot Of two or three
hundred dollars. A pair Of deuces IS
worth a hundred. There IS no sluic-
ing at al in the district, although On

NUTRTlOUs QUALITIES OF FOODS

The world little imagines how
largely it is indebted to the laborious
researches Of scientific men fer many
Of the most important truths relasra
to human health, happiness and life.
As population increases and she valus
Of food Is enhanced, the knowledgs
which chemistry has elected, is becom-
ing more and more valuable IN a prac-
teal point Of view.
Some kinds Of food are more natrl-
tious than others, and If it should bs
found that articles which are cheapest
have the most nutrimeut, and give the
highest ability to labor, then knowl
edge becomes money to the poor.
Tables vary, but some Of the general
results are as follows: One pound Of

tFfom chs Locklo-s O. - Joerr,aII
A reporter Of the Journal inter
viewed Col. Leonard Henkle, Of Roch-
ester, this morning at his hotel. and
obtained from him many interesting
particulars regarding his proposed stu
pendous scheme Of lighting the prin-
cipal cities Of the United States with
electricity generated at Niagara Falls
and conveyed BY wires to these re-
spective cities. The scheme has been
discussed in the press pretty thorough
ly, and most Of cur readers are already
conversant with the general idea
which is so wide-reaching and won-
derful in character, as to be treated
with much doubt By ordinary mortals.
But COL Henkle says everything is
looking very promising. and that he

success Of his idea. A retired banker
IN Chicago, who has late become IN
terested in the matter, has taken
81 100000 Of the stock certificates, Of

tensive character. it viii necessarily

commissioners in comprising the land

that on Sunday he received a letter
from the Chicago banker who said that

HAMLET" VOORHEES, IN DETROIT.
How He Came to Leave McCullOugh'S Com
pany and Get Married.

In an interview in the Detroit Post, lawyer
of that city gave an account of the experiences
of James P. Voorhees,, son of Senator Voorhees,,
there, but confuses him with his brother Charles
S. Voorhees,, who has been recently elected to
Congress from Washington Territory, The
gentleman is quoted as saying:
''The paragraph in the Post stated that young
Voorhees, played Hamlet once, and once only,
some years ago, at an Indianapolis theater. But
that was not the only time he appeared the
stage. He was thoroughly stage struck and
joined John McCullough's company, coming here
with that organization. He played minor parts.
and overacted them to an extent that caused him
to be guyed by the audiences Voorhees, asked
Mccullough if the latter thought he would ever
become an actor, and Mccullough told him he
would never become great one He was a
proud fellow, and Immediately left the com
pany. He had no money, and to
obtain means he exchanged his clothes
for shabby gepteel suit and some
money at Van Baalens pawn-shop and engaged
board at Mrs Clarks, whose house is above
Grand River avenue An acquaintance brought
Voorhees, to me, thinking could aid him in OBJ
tanning employment on one of the Detroit news
papers l took him to Mr.. Quinby. of the Free
Press, who thought Voorhees, was an impostor
and would have nothing to 40 with him. Then
1 took him TO an afternoon paper publisher, who
told the Senator'S son to write a sample article
and submit it. Instead of writing on local
story and was told that that style of literature
was not what was wanted on the paper That
ended the attempt TO make a newspaper man of
him. After this failure / saw nothing of Voor
hees for several days. One evening the door
bell at our house rang, and whenit was answered
Mr. Voorhees, and lady were admitted
He astonished me by presenting the
lady as his wife,. having just been
married by Father Van Dyke. The
lady was a Miss Baubie, pretty French girl,
who was boarding at the same house, and with
whom Voorhees, had become smtten. A brief
eourtship resulted in the marriage, Miss Raubie
having sufficient faith in and love for this young
man, in spite al his impecuniosity and failure to
obtain employment The n9wly-married couple
passed the evening with US, the walk to the
house and back to the clearinghouse making
up their bridal trip. Getting married did not
improve the young mans financial condition al
though don't know as it hurt it any, and after
standing the strain as long he could he was
compelled to apply to his father for assistance
1t came at once, and in accordance with Senator
Voorheess directions, the OK actor and his bride
went to Washington. | heard nothing of him
until l read of his election to Congress, and, as
you can well imagine, the news surprised me.
1t illustrates the marvellous change four years
will make in AN average Americans life. 1t
seems funny to think that the man who was
poverty stricken and unable to obtain work in
Detroit in 1881 is in 1884 a member elect of Con-
