The only accident worthy Of mention
that has taken place on the Eureka Il Pal
isade Railroad during the present bad
weather occurred yesterday. The train
was delayed considerably in starting, but
Alter getting off 1t had gone only about q
mile, to a point near Legs ranch, when
the locomotive coming upon q place where
tne snow had formed a sleek coating over
me rails, the wheels slipped off the west
side OF The track. The engine went some
distance derailed in this manner and top
pied over, Mr.. Reynolds and Mr.. Riley,
engineer and fireman, managed to get of
. moment before the upset and escaped
without injury. Word was at once
Drought TO town and two engines were dis
patched to the scene Of the accident. BY
= O'Clock in the afternoon the track had
Deen cleared and adjus ted and the train
was started again in good shape. A dis
patch from Pslisade at $50 last evening
stated that this train had not then arrived,
put that 1t was looked for shortly. The
aispatch stated. also, that II would not de-
lay at Palisade but return to Eureka i'm
mediately. The G. P. train from the West
was reported IL hours late.

They are exhibiting now in London e
Neapolitan lady of 25. Signora vanatelli,
as near a parody of the living skeleton as
is possible to look at. She is about middl
hight. with a hstchet-edged face, with q
nose large enough for Goliath. This is
her great feature, and suggests that she
has run into proboscis as the Thibet sheep
run into Jail. She might be packed in a
section of water-pipe. She is shaped from
shoulder to toe like q f%our-square timber
joist. The exhibitors say it is necessary to
stuff her ankle boots with cotton wool to
keep the bones from slipping or grating on
the joints.

~GOODY.GOoDY TALK.
The journalism OF Gotham Called
Cheap and Nasty.

Cheap and Nasty.
A Boston journal representing the high
moral tone of the Club" goes after the
New York City press with a sharp stick.
Its criticism, which we reproduce below,
may be correct, although there is nothing
in the management Of the Herald,
Sun or Mail to justify it, but we neverthe-
less long for the time when Boston shall
turn her eyes upen herself, for her own
skirts are not so clean that she can claim
to be q model Of virtue:
We do not recall any more striking or
lamentable phenomenon in journalism
than the change which has come over the
New York morning papers since they re-
duced their price and entered upon their
present strenuous competition. The
change was as sudden as it was remarkable,
and 1t would almost seem as IL the mana
gers Of these papers supposed that they
would create a new constituency by going
into the cutters and the slums after it. 1t
is possible that they may do 30, but 1t
would have been well for them to remem-
Der. simply as Q matter Of business policy,
that they were entering upon an uneven
competition with papers which were in the
cutters and slums before them, and that it
was possible to lose their old constituency
while seeking for a new one. At present
there is a mad race among them for the
latest piece of scandal and sensationalism.
Matters WI ich they once would have pub
lished briefly and %obscurely. now appear
on the first page. tricked out with taking
headings, and written with toothsome en-
bellishments. Not content with making
the most of such crimes and scandals as
might turn up in the natural course OF
things, they rake the whole country as
with q fne-tooth comb, revive old stories.
and even bite greedily at scandals which
are entirely fictitious, and are invented to
hit the market.

JACKS LETTER.
The Present N Future of COur
d'Alene Freely Talked About.

The Present and Future OF COeur
d'Alene Freely Talked About.
Bob Harwood, on the 18th, says the
Helena (Ma.) Independent, received a let
ter from the we'll known Jack Smith, who
is now in the Ceur d'Alene gold mines.
IT contains a good many things that will
be OF interest to those who contemplate
joining the stampede. He says:
81 came over the Trout Greek trail to
this place. We pulled our sleighs the
whole way; eight days from the railroad.
Myself and partner packed and pulled 700
pounds. They know very little about the
creek yet, as they have only worked one
or two places that were on high bed rock,
where:it paid about 81 or So to the man.
Flour is worth 25 cents per pound, and
bacon, coffee and sugar about 40 cents per
pound. The snow is four feet deep, and
there is not much going on here at present.
Lots are worth from 5000 to 5000.
"This is a big country. and l think it
will be a good place to prospect in next
Summer. This creek may turn out good,
Or it may prove q blk; no one can tell at
present. II q person can come here with
o little money, he is all right; but there
need be 10 hurry about coming before
Spring.
'.It is storming now; when 1t quits am
going up the gulch to try to catch on to
something. Take it altogether, I am glad
| came.
"You can come by way of Rathdrum
and get your things packed in at 20 cents
per pound. If you travel on the railroad
you want to have q big Saratoga trunk.
Put on lots Of style and you are all right;
but If you look like a poor miner, with 40
or so pounds OF blankets, ii is a close game
to get them through, for they will not
have them on the baggage or express cars.
and won't check them. The railroad men
don't appear to understand anything In
til there are a few dollars in sight"

An Unlucky Miss.

II was told around town yesterday that
q Chinaman, who was caught in the act Of
stealing wood in the rear of Charley
Fox's restaurant Sunday night. had paid
the penalty Of his theft by getting 8 load
Of birdshot in his back. The truth OF the
story, as we find upon inquiring, is very
different from this. Mr. Hill, Under
Sheriff, says that he was coming up Num-
roe street Sunday night, between IL and
IL O'Clock, towards Bsteman street, when
he heard the discharge Of a gun. He
walked rapidly forward andfound that mo-
body had been hit, but saw q door OF one
Of the Chinese shanties just north Of Res
cue Company's engine house peppered
with what no took TO be about No. 6 duck
shot. He learned from the Cinnamon, who
were talking over the matter, that no one
Ct them had been touched, but that a
Chinaman, who was walking down the
stree. when the gun was fired, had come
near being the victim. Mr.. Hill and
quickly, examined the tracks OF a mar who
had been seen flying through Q Chinatown
alley opposite the rear of Fox's restaurant.
The tracks indicated that the wood thief
did not linger, but averaged some 10 feet
to the jump in his hssty retreat. He Is a
well known fellow and a notorious scrub.
The man who did the rather poor shooting,
purposely perhaps, saw the thief at work
and didn't pull trigger until the scamp
had got midway Of tho street and was
striding of with a stick Of good mahogany
on each shoulder. II his aim had been
more accurate the community would have
been better pleased. Probably. however,
the scare will be beneficial TO the petty
larceny thief and q number OF others like
him who infest Eureka with their useless
and vicious presence.
