A Destructive Fire.

Mrs. L. o. Benedict of Cherry Greek
writes to her husband at this place, giving
him some particulars of a fire at She'll
burn, by which the property Of William
Burke was entirely destroyed. The prin-
cipsl loss was his residence. an adobe
building, a small store Of goods, and a
large, fine stone stable, in which was
stored q considerable quantity of grain.
The letter does not state whether any of
Mr.. Burke's fine horses, Of which he had
q good many, we're destroyed in the flames.
II seems, however. that Mrs. Burke saved
nothing from the fire, and that the good
ladies OF Cherry Greek were busy, when
Mrs. Benedict wrote, in gathering up some
clothes for herself and her six or seven
children, TO be sent over at once, some 16
miles, TO Shellburn. Mr.. Burke and
family were about the only persons living
at the place, which went out OF existence as
a town some years ago, and has since been
owned by him as a ranch aud kept az a
way station on tho road TO Deep Greek.
Mr.. Burke was absent at the time Of the
fire, prospecting some mining property, we
believe, on the west side Of Mt. Davidson.
The many friends Of himself and family
will DO panied TO hear OF his serious and
embarrassing loss.

That Daily Mai

Postmaster Smith tells us that one per-
son has already put in a bid for carrying
the mail to Palisade every other day, and
that three or four others are figuring on
the contract. He thinks the Department
overlooked the fact that the train and the
blackboard Tor other vehicle) cannot alter
nate if only three trips per week are made
by the latter, the cart running every other
day-three trains per week and a day left
over, and he thinks that the Department,
when its attention has been called to this
fact, will make the allowance necessary
for the proposed every-other-day trip by
stage OF blackboard.

Electrical Phenomenon.

Among the black clouds that hung low
in the northern heavens last night, the
lightning was unusually lively and varied.
Now in the shape of a corkscrew it would
tremble for an instant and disappear, and
then would come a white glare like the re-
Election from a huge surface Of tin. 1t ap-
peared also in every other shape that can
be imagined, describing all sorts OF
angles and curlicues. Gentlemen experts
in weather phenomena who looked on
from Main street said. but without refer
ence to the books, we think, that 1T was
heat lightning.

At this time, when cut flowers fade 80
soon, il is well to know that il a small bit
of the stem is cut off and the end inn
mersed in very hot water, the flower will
frequently revive and resume its beauty.
Colored flowers are more easily rejuve-
mated than white ones, which are apt to
turn yellow. For preserving flowers in
water, finely pulverized charcoal should
be put into the vase at this season. Where
vines are growing in water, charcoal will
prevent foul odors from the standing
water.

Canning BACK HeeIed.

Eugene N. Robinson manager OF the
Sweetwater Company's Mining property
has te~legraphed from Ogden for a special
car to bring him up from Palisade to Eu-
reka, tomorrow, we believe. and also, to
have a special stage in readiness to meet
him at the depot here, so that he can make
the trip from Palisade to Hamilton in day
light. Mr.. Robinson evidently returns
with what is greatly needed, not only In
White Pine but also in Eureka, district

The Salt Lake Tribune says: Tho
concentration OF the low grade silver
ores OF Utah has in II number of in
stances been attained with the most
gratifying success, both in regard to
the quantity and the high percentage
obtained. But these, 1t must be re-
mem bered, are the easiest kinds OF
ore 10 concentrate. II Isa problem
yet whether the low grade ores of
any other nature can he thus utilized,
OF which. there are millions of tons
scattered throughout the Territory.
The chlorides of Southern Utah, too
low grade TO furnish any margin on
milling, would alone furnish millions
of dollars in bullion could this de-
sirable consummation be achieved.

this amount 40 per cent, or ST.

Tunnel RI lights.

The Commissioner of the General
Land Office decides as follows When
= tunnel Is run for the DEVELOPMENT
of q vein or lode, or for the discovery
OF mines, the owners of such tunnel
shall have the right of possession of
all veins or lodes within 1900 feet
from the face OF such tunnel on the
line thereof, not previously known to
exist, discovered in such tunnel to
the same extent as If discovered from
the surface; and locations on the line
OF such tunnel of veins or lodes, not
appearing on the surface, made by
other parties after the commence
ment OF the tunnel, and while the
same Is being prosecuted with reason
able diligence, shall be valid, but
failure 10 prosecute the work on the
tunnel for six months shall be con-
sidered as an abandonment of the
right to all undiscovered veins on the
line OF such tunnel. The effect of this
is simply to give proprietors of a
mining tunnel run in good faith the
po<sessory right to 500 feet of blind
lodes cut, discovered. or intersected
by such tunnel which were not pre-
yionsly known 10 exist within 5000
feet from the faco or point OF COM
mencement of such tunnel, aud to
prohibit other parties, after The com
inencement OF the tunnel from pros
pecting for ami making locations OF
lodes on the line thereof and within
said distance of 3 1000 feet, unless such
lodes appear upon Tho surface or were
previously known to exist.
