Hon. William Henry Hunt, Ameri-

tary of the Navy, who died at St.
Petersburg, Wednesday, February
9th, was boru at Charleston, S. c.,
in 1924, the youngest Of five sons Of
an influential lawyer and member Of
the State Legislature.
Mr. Hunt was brought up III New
Orleans, to which city his father re
moved on account of the Calhoun null
LITIGATION excitement, but attended
school ut New Haven, Connecticut,
and afterward entered Yale College.
lie studied law with an elder brother,
and was admitted to the bar in lS44
in New Orleans at the age Of 20. He
soon took u high rank as a profound
and eloquent lawyer, and was for a
time professor in New Orleans
law school. When the war came on
he refused to join in the secession
movement, and was a consistent Union
man. When Admiral Farrayut en-
tered New Orleans, Judge Hunt in
>ited the officers Of the navy to his
house. He assisted in the reconstruct
ton of the State, and was elected At
rneyGencral on the Packard ticket
in 1876. In 1873 he was appointed
Il Judge of the United States Court
of Claims. President Garfield took
him into his Cabinet as a representa-
tive OF the South, and when President
Arthur succeeded to the executive Of
flee he appointed him Minister to
Russia.
In this capacity Mr.. Hunt performed
an admirable service to his country in
looking after the survivors of the
Jeannette expedition, and assisting
them in making their way from re,
mote corner OF the Russian Empire
to st. Petersburg, and thence to their
homes. Through his efforts the good
offices Of the Russian government
were secured in bringing the remains
Of De Long and those who persisted
with him from the Western coast Of
Siberia to the Russian capital.
Jud gc Hunt was four times married
His first wife was a daughter of Com
modore R,dyley His second wife
was a daughter-in-law Of the late
Bishop Hopkins, Of Connecticut. In
his personal characteristics Mr.. Hunt
was one Of the most winning of men.
Handsome, learned and elcqueut. he
pI ssesscd all tie graces of a finished
gentleman. He leaves IA widow, one
daughter and four sons.

New WEIsER, IDAHO,
March 18th. 1884.
To THE EDITOR OF THE TINES
Things in Weiser have almost been
at a stands!ill for the past two weeks,
on account of the washouts on the
railroad between here and Caldwell.
We have not had train for the past
10 days and the chances are very fa-
vorable for the same state of affairs to
remain for week % come.
The ill-feeling that seemed to ex-
ist between the two towns has all
blown over, although the wagon
bridge between here and the old town
took notion to change positions, one
niyho last week. 1t is now heading
westward. Some say the BOYS across
the water tempered with it, but we
don't believe it.
General Superintendent Doddrilge
and the Chief Engineer passed through
here EN- route to Huntingdon, Ore
gon, on Friday. 1t is whispered that
a large force will shortly be put on
construction, and that the road will
90 down the Snake to Lewiston,
Idaho, with branch to Baker CITY:
also, that work on the Boise Branch
from Caldwell is to CONNIE nee at once.
In the new town we find II. u. Dan
ilson, with fine store stocked with
general merchandise. ''T." saws he
likes this frontier racket" "Pat.H
Hickey, the frontier saloon man, is
singing lots of disturbance" into the
boys, but they say it beats the poison
across the river.
Our new hotel is almost finished,
only waiting for paper, etc., to put on
the finishing touches. 1t will be
opened with a grand ball. Every
body invited. 1t a large three story
building, and will be, when finished,
one of the finest hotels in Idaho.
Latest reports from Mineral mining
camp show everything i'll very flour
i.hlng condition. Pat. Fahoy, OF
Caldwell, has opened large store
there, and reports doing splendid
business
The weather here is very fine, and
has been all winter, with only one fall
of snow of about eight inches, about
two weeks ago, which disappeared in
a day or two.
| would mention that there is a
scarcity Of the fair sex here. If YOU
know OF any in your section VINO
would like to "catch on,' send them
along. There is good field to work
IN here. You would be Of the same
opinion if you saw the display of un
derwcar, ETC., ETC., spread around on
the sagebrush in the sun to-day.
Sunday is our wash day now. Will
it always be thusy?

A Singular scandal.

Bennett Devon, a young carpenter, "a
years of age, was arrested Saturday even
ing and brought into the county Jail of
Stockton, California, on a peculiar charge.
The complaint, sworn out before Justice
Reamey by E. P. Gayetty, concerns his
wife and Devon, and runs az follows:
'The complaint alleges that one Bennett
Devon committed the crime of providing
drugs to a pregnant woman, with intent to
produce a miscarriage, a felony, in this
that the seid Bennett Devon did willfully
and unlawfully and feloneously provide
and supply to one Ella Gayotty a certain
drug known as the oil Of cotton root, with
intent thereby to procure the miscarriage
OF Ella Gayetty, then and there being q
pregnant woman, and such said drug then
and there not being necessary to preserve
the life Of the said Ella Gayetty."

NOT FOR ORE.
Mining with Reference Only to

Mining with Reference Only to
the United states Senate.
The Virginia City correspondent of the
New York Mining Record, speaking Of the
recent contract made by U. S. Senator
Jones with the Bonanza firm to work out
the ores Of the California and Con. Vir-
ginia mines above the level Of the Sutro
Tunnel, seems TO think there is more OF
politics in it than OF mining, by having
particular reference to the reelection of
Jones to the Senate. After giving the
sterms Of the contract the correspondent
says:
/ think the proposition as a speculation
is a questionable one, and II the coming
year were a off year in politics, it would
not be undertaken. As it is, the Legisla-
ture to be selected next Fall will choose
Senator Jones successor. AS this gentle
man wishes to succeed himself, no expense
will be spared to accomplish this end. At
present not over 900 men are employed
in and around the various mines. By
midsummer next the groupings from the
Caledonia to Utah will give employment
to four times the number. Herein and
herein only is to be found a profitable
speculation in low grade ores. The popu-
,ation of this State is small; a few hundred
men imported and judiciously scattered
among the several counties could control
it in the interest of the importer. This,
Storey county, is one-fifth of the State in
representation and very doubtful in COM
plexion. Low grade ore is to be made
the factor through which voters are to be
ground out.

Always Crawling Up.

The Phoebe Record in the following par.
agraph tells an old story of how mining
camps are handicapped
The owners OF the Raymond & Ely prop
erty, who stated that they were anxious to
sell it, were offered the price they said
they would take, when they at once raised
in their price some $40, 600. The Meadow
Valley Company were offered the price
they said they would be glad to sell for,
when they raised the price of their prop
erty also. There has been a company OF
mining men formed several times for the
purchase of these mining properties. but
when they go prepared to pay the amount
asked for the property the price is always
raised several thousand dollars. The
owners of these properties, the way it looks
to the public, have no idea of selling them.
This is just about the way matters now
stand in Phoebe. And so it has been for
years.

Mlst1etue.

In our Christmas stories and fancies the
mistletoe is often connected with the oak.
But this connection is a common error; it
is more rarely found on that tree than any
other. There are only twelve known mis-
tletoe oaks in England and Wales: An
oak at Eastnor, Herefordshire; at Ted
stone, Delamere. in the same shire, dis
covered in 1851; at Sunburv Park. near
Cheapstow; at Dunsfold, Surrey; in Hack
wood Park. near B~asingstoke; near Ply
mouth, on the South Devon Railroad; at
Frampton Severn, in Gloucestershire; at
Haven, Herefordshire, first known in 1869;
at Pla Newyd. Anglesea; at Lapgattock,
Lingoed, Mo~nmouthshire, discovered in
1870; at Bredwardine, Herefordshire, dis
covered in 1874; near Knightwick Church,
Gloucestershire.--New York Sun.
1t is not mere fancy that the mistletoe
grows on the oak. In Southern forests it
grows IN no other tree, while in these for
ests there are oak trunks innumerable that
are ornamented with the mistletoe growth.
