The Ampnith9atre.

The grand masquerade carnival on
rollers at the Amphitheatre, last
night. was brilliant success. The
galleries we're ts%tel to their utmost
capacity to accomm date the specta-
tors, while the floor was crowde l by
"a animated, fun loving throng of
participants. At 7:45 the maskers
were called to a halt aud the prizes
awarded for the best sustained char.
acters. The 1st prize, y beautiful silver
card receiver was bestowed up "A
Mis- Gerdie Selfridye, who person.
ated the ''Girl Baby" The second
prizs a gentiem n 9 toilet set-was
awarded to Mr. s. W.. Hall. who
ropresented fhe Cow Bly," the
terror Of the plains.
Several elegant costumes were
noticed. bnt where so many We're
elegantly dresse | it would be invid-
ious to particuIarize. We caunot help
saying. however, that the Romeo, the
Don Cesar De B Il IN and the Indian
chief were faultlessly attired and
attracted marked attensiou. TIE
MINER was particularly forum .te in
being represented by one Of the most
Intelligent, and at the same time
one of the m 9st beautiful | ldies upon
the floor. For the Fl .ttering comlli-
ment rendered the MINER bows its
thanks.

Spotted Mines.

Would 1t not be we'll for those who
contemplate going to the C@ur
d'Alene mines to take counsel of
prudence and wait f,r further de-
velopments. From all that has been
gathered from that country it appears
that what little gold has been found,
was taken from the rim rock of the
gulches and that no encouraging
prospects have been discovered in
the beds or channels Of the creeks
and gulches. 1t is also learned that
the bedrock Is slate.
Any experienced placer miner
will at once conclude that
these facts do not sustain the theory
that extensive placer mines exist in
the section thu. far prospected 10 the
Co Ir d'Alene. On the contrary they
| iqiioate what are termed spotted
placers." II support Of this assump.
ii n there is the other fact. the gold
exhibited here as coming from there
Is not what is known among placer
miners. wash" III. 1t shows no evil
dence Of wash" and where there
has been n wash tn IRE |. no general
diffusion Of the metal in the earth.
1t rests in spots. S,ms of thee spnts
Nv b. very rich AMI fortunes may
he taken out of them. Others sg lin
mat pay but SIN. Ill wages for
labor performed, while again there
may be acres of contiguous ground
with scarcely a color.
The formation OF the country also
indicates spotted placers. The
creeks and gulches have but little
fall. The rocks and earth and debris
which have found their way |
to the Rulches and streams
from thu bordering mountains,
remain, undisturbed,. where they
first rested. Toe quartz of the
country is not of an encouraging
oh aracter. 1t has a dead, ~lifeless ap.
pearance resembling what Is known
~ ''bastard" quartz. Specimens
brought to Butte show gold, but gen.
orally q single piece Of coarse gold is
-een. At the sight Of it any expert
rnced "old quartz miner would say
1t denoted q spirited ledge.
Taking these facts all together we
submit If it vOul.i not he the wiser
policy for tlO q who prODo+e going
tu the mines tn wat for further dc.
vel"pments. If the country il good
for anything 1t will be in he'ter sha,e
to prOs,ect a f-w months h-nc4 than
now. If it l. not 4 good mining
country the fact will he made know WI !

Mrs. Ritter.s Case.

In an interview last evening witt
Mrs. Ritter, the lady expressed a de
sire to remain here until she fully
recovered her health and strength.
She had been informed Of the kind
offers of friends In Nevada, but fol
the present she feels unable to &C.
cept them. She will apply immedi-
ately for q divorce from the brute
whom she Is C ,mpelled to call hus-
band and when freed from him she
can then act more intelligently In
shaping her future movements.
She is now able to sit up for q
short time and move about. She
says that although she is treated
with unwearying kindness by the
Sisters, she prefers accepting the
hospitality Of Mrs. Perkins and will
soon be removed to room provided
by that lady. She desired Us to ex-
/ less through the columns Of the
MINER her deep and heartfelt t banks
to those who have so kindly con-
tributed to her relief.
In this connection we would say
that no one need entertain appre-
tensions G ncerning the disposition
OF the money raised for her. The
full amount raised is not yet accur-
ateIy known. That which
has been collected is placed
ia d 'nnell, Clark 4 L,rable's bank.
It Is not deposited in h.r
name Deither is it subject to her
CHI OK or ord T. The committee who
has managed her benefit from the
start will draw the money as her
needs require and pay it out. Due
