THE SUSPENSION OF COFFIN BROS.
1t Will Probably Not Last Over 80 or
60 DAYS.

The firm of Coffin Bros have made
a general assignment of all their prop
erty for the benefit of their creditors.
The assignment, which is on record,
names Frank Lang as assignee, and
makes no preferred creditors.
The firm had three stores, one in
Haley, one in Bellevue, and one IN
Ketchum. AT each of these they car.
ried heavy stock of hardware, tin
ware, crockery and oils. The stocks
must have cost in the neighborhood
of $4,000. The real estate of the
firm in the three towns (which is all
of the very choicest must be worth
about $50, 1000. more. The book ac-
counts Of such firm must aggregate
all of $4,000. 1t is therefore safe
to set the assets down at 100000.
This any local business man must
know to be nearly correct.
The TIMES is reliably informed that
the liabilities of the firm do not ex.
coed $4,000, which is due entirely in
the Eastern States, only about $4OO
being due on Wood River. There is,
therefore, in stock and accounts, fully
$3.50 for every dollar of indebtedness.
As the assets of the firm are so
much in excess of the liabilities, it is
evident that the assignment was the
result of temporary money embarrass-
ments, and the assignment must be
considered suspension for 80 or &C
days, when. it is generally believed,
the firm will resume business.

MILLIONS FOR MINES.

Drummer.


A drummer for Chicago furnish
ing goods house stopped a well-known
mine-owner on the street, in front of
the Merchants Hotel, the other day,
and asked:
"Proiessor .Jenney, believe ?"
''So-called," briefly responded the
Professor.
The drummer then went through
the usual formula about importing d.
rect from Europe, selling at first cost,
finest goods, best made, ETC., the Pro-
lessor impatiently listening mean

up with the usual

The Professor-Thcn can't deal

raising money to buy mines that |
can't afford to spend money on clothes.
The drummer expostulated, tried to
explain that suit of clothes did not
cost quite as much as mine, etc, but
in vain. Finally, the Professor, to get
rid of him, said: "My dear sir, |
haven't been able to pay for the last
suit I got, and three years ago, my
tailor, despairing of getting any
money, stopped sending his BILL"
The drummer, evidently paralyzed,
went on his way without saying a
word. 1t has been ascertained since
that he did not tackle another mining
man during his stay here.
