Music by Telephone.

About half-past s o'clock last even
ing. the boys in Coffin Bros store
here called up the Bellevue store by
telephone and entertained their COM
rades in tie Gate City with several
airs we'll executed on two mouth har-
monicas and guitar. Erv. Johnson,
who was at the Bellevue end, said
that the music was inexpressioly sweet
so sweet, in fact, that it broke him
all up, and he had to drop the tele-
phone. The he chum store was then
hailed, and the entertainment re.
peatcd.
In time, as musical instruments
multiply, these entertainments by te'
lephone will doubtless become quite d
feature Of winter social life in the
towns of Wood River. BY next win
ter the system will doubtless be ex.
tended 10 the mines and Camas Prairie
and entertainments may then be got
ten up in public halls, the principa
feature of which will be music b,

Event.

In Haley Theater, tomorrow even

will re-appear in this city, and present
the sterling play of"Woman's Love;

Torrance will be for the benefit of the
HALEY Fire Department. That is, as
such things 90, 80 cents for every re-
served seat sold will be given to the
Fire Company. The committee hav-
ing the matter in charge appointed
E. B. Lennon and 4. E. Harrison to
sell tickets. These gentlemen took
hold with such goodwill that early
Yesterday they had already sold 100
tickets and expected to be able to
sell $50. That, independently OF
what may be sold at Rupert's, will
make So for the fire company'>
t'easury-quite an acceptable amount
especially when it is considered that
we are in the midst Of winter.
The performance will be followed
by dance, in which all who purchase
tickets for the performance will be en-.
titled to participate.

A MURDERER,S REMAINS.
They are Brought to HALEY for Inter.
ment.

The body of Leroy Donovan, who
was hanged i, Wyoming, last Friday,
arrived here yesterday morning, in
charge of his mother, who left here
last Sunday to go to Cheyenne, to beg
the Governor to repricve he1 son. The
remains we're taken to Mrs Donovan's
residence, near the schoolhouse, where
she intended burying him; but the
District Attorney and others objected,
and they will have to be bulied in the
Haley Cemetery.
Donovan was hung for the murder,
at Rock Springs, on the night of the
9TH Of May last, of William Leighton,
a colored barber. Donovan confessed
to detective who pretended TO be in
Jail for murder, that he had killed
Leighton. His story was substan-
TALLY to the effect that he entered
Leighton's room, and secreted himself
under the bed. When Leighton came
in, undressed and went to sleep, Don
ovan crawled out and killed him with
hammer. He thea secured six $40
gold coins in Lcighton's pockets
(which was the motive for the muir.
der) and left, but was arrested the
following day.

A Nuisance that Should be Abated .

The sawmills are again playing
havoc with Wood River and some of
the tributary streams by turning their
sawdust into them, and thus killing
off the fish. This is really too bad, as
one of our great sources of wealth is
thereby destroyed. 1t seems to us
that, in the absence of direct statute
against it, this ofense could be dealt
with under the head of malicious mis-
chief.

BOLTON's.
A Neucleus Around which a Town Is
Growing Up.

Bottoms springs will, this year, prob
ably take the first place in the esti-
nation of excursionists from this city.
There is large hotel, private plunge
bath, private bathingrooms, good
stable, and other convenlcnces for the
accommodation of visitors, which are
not to be found elsewhere on Wood
River, besides a large p md on which
those disposed may go boating in sum-
mer and skating in winter. Besides,
the water of the baths is much warmer
than those of any other springs around
town, which is quite an advantage in
their favor. The distance from Haley
is not over six miles, and the road is
IN splendid condition.
Near the springs quite settlement
is growing up. There are over a
dozen houses already, and over half a
dozen more will be built as soon as
spring opens. The settlers now want a
general merchandise store there, and
would like some HALEY house to open
branch there. AS the branch could be
connected with Haley by telephone it
would be practically HALEY house.
AS an inducement the people offer to
{ give the best corner lot there to any
storekeeper who will build store
The population tributary now num-
bers over 100 souls, and in summer it
will be at least double that, so that
there would be enough to support a
small store.
