When the question of building bridge

Hon. J. G. Fullerton appeared and filed
what Iurports to be a remonstrance by ctr

Just when they were signed does not appear
or at what date a great many of them paid
taxes, is not apparent
Prominent among the signers are the names

in 1881 er 1882, and has not since been
heard from. Wm.sB. Eddings, who is sery-

were seriously damaged in appearance,
and did not sell readily. The asparagus
was of the usual bleached, tasreless kind

Shall we Meet Again.

The following is beautiful ssnti
ment, and one of the most brilliant par
agraphs ever written by the lamented
George D. Prentice:
ssThe fat of death is inexorable.
There is no appeal for relief from that
great law which dooms US to dust. We
flourish and fade as the leaves of the
forest; and the fewsrs that bloom,
wither and fade in a day have no frazier
hold upon life than the mightiest mon
arch that ever shook the earth with his
footsteps. Generations of men will
appear and disappear as the grass, and
the multitude that throng the earth to-
day will disappear as footsteps on the
shore Men seldom think of the great
event of death until the shadow falls
across their own pathway, hiding from
their eyes the faces of loved ones,
| whose living smile was the sunlight OF
their existence. Death is the astago-
mist of lite, and the thought of the tomb
is the skeleton of all feasts. We de
not want to 90 through the dark valley,
although it's dark passage may lead to
Paradise; We do not want to go down
into damp graves, even with princes fol
hedfellows. Tn the beautiful drama Of
Ion the hope of immortality, SO elo-
/ auently uttered by the death devoted
Greek, finds deep response in every
thoughtful soul When about to yield
his lite sacrifice to fate, his Clemantht
asks him if they should meet again; t.
which he responds: I have asked tina
dreadful question Of the bills that look
etsrnal-of the clear streams that aov
forever-of stars among those fields o.
azure my raised spirits have walked in
glory. All ara dumb But AZ I gaz
upon thy living face, I feel that ther
| is something in love that mantle
through its beauty, that esnnot who'll,
perish. We shall meot again, Gle
manthe.

A solitag Grays.

On Christmas day the first funeral
occurred III the Occur 'Alene mines.
Wm. II. Allen, an old Virginia City
speculator, had died suddenly of heart
disease, and the boys laid him away to
rest on a little knoll looking down on
Eagle City. He had been wealthy in
his day; worth his quarter or half
million, and had spent a number OF
years in Europe. Ficklo fortune had
deserted him, however, and he came to
the new mines to make his last stake.
He made it, but alas it was only poor
plain little pine board, with neatly
carved inscription and the Masonic
square and compass. IIe was 32 de
gree memb Der Of the Scottish rite of
Masons, and those Of the fraternity
gathered around his snowy grave and
buried him with true Masonic honors
! The snowfal1es were falling fast at the
time, and amid the silence and gloom,
the voices OF those who read the i'm
pressive ceremonies aud joined in the
funeral hymn sounded strangely weird
and solemn. The snow pines on the
ovcrhapging mountain; sides, the still
white valley, and tbs fact that the first
Of the boys was being laid III the open
grave at their feet, caused a feeling of
awe to creep into the stoutest hearts in
the little assemblage. 1t was soil

mountains, and 10 one present could
help asking, "AVill it be my turn nextP'
