BERNARD'S PAPER SOLD.
A Cmur d'Alene Publishers Ill Luck
Lands in Jail.

Henry Bernard, the publisher of the
Eagle, Idaho, Pioneer, who killed Jack En-
right, printer, had an examination and
was committed. He secured change of
venue to Nez Perce county and was taken
from the county secretly one night and is
now lodged in Jail at Lewiston 20 wait the
fall term of court. 1t generally believed
about Murray and Eagle City that if Ber-
nard escapes with ten years in the terrific
rial pen he will be exceedingly lucky.
Enright, the man killed, was unarmed, but
Bernard claims that he can prove that the
former threw his hand behind him as if to
draw gun and he shot in self-defensc.
Bernard's newspaper was sold for small
sum to pay his attorney.

RETrING ON THE RESULT.
How the Sports in the East Look Upon
the Coming Contest.

The New York Times of August 18th
inst. has several columns of dispatches
showing the way betting is running on the
candidates. From these It seems at Boston
Blaine is decidedly the iavorite in betting
circles, and odds, greater or less, are offered
on him, with good degree OF confidence
One gentleman, Butler man, by tie way,
authorizes the Herald to put up any part OF
$4,000 on the Republican candidate, and
stated the offer Was not taken. Another
gentleman stands ready to stake 100 to IS
for almost any amount on Blaine. An
offer OF $1oo against $500 was taken that
Cleveland does not carry State outside OF
the solid South The same is true at But
falo, where, in one instance, Democratic
politician has $4,000 in bank to back
Blaine with Some even bets have been
made however. At other places betting is
even on the general result, although side
betting on New York, Indiana, West Vir'
ginia, etc, is frequent and heavy.

A BIG IDAHO MINE.
Sale of the Grand Prize Silver Mine-The
Lost River Bonanza.

The Grand Prize mine, located in the
mining district on Lost river, Idaho, has
passed into the hands Of two well-known
Salt Lake men, Ed. Egar and Matt. Cullen.
It is understood that the price paid its
former owner, Mr.. a. L. Jones, is $4,000,
and from what we hear of the property it
is very cheap at that figure. 1t is claimed
that there is 400 tons of ore on the dump,
and 10000 tons in sight in the mine. AS
says show the ore to go from 46 to 1856
ounces silver, IL per cent copper and 81
per cent. lead. The ledge on top is an i'm
mense one, being twenty feet wide, down
thirty feet; where it dips east and west and
narrows down. At the bottom of the shaft,
136 feet deep there is one foot of solid ore.
We understand the new owners are 60
ing to place machinery in the property and
work it for all there is in it. Mr.. Jones has
several other claims in that locality, among
which is the Hidden Treasure, two miles
north Of the Grand Prize. This he has
developed to some extent and twenty-five
tons of ore on the dump, assaying SO ounces
of silver, IS per cent. lead, and from $3.50
to S. in gold.

A NEW ROUTE.
Montana Cattle to be Shipped East Ove'
the Canadian Pacific.

A dispatch from Montreal, Can, says:
F. X. Singham, Canadian cattle shipper,
received the agency of Frewton Bros, of
Wyoming and Montana, who own quar-
ter Of million head of cattle in those Ter
.ritories, all of which will be brought here
for shipment by the Canadian Pacific Rail
road, when the government gives consent
10 bring the cattle through this route. 1t
is alleged that the transit of American cat
tie alone net six million per annum and
there will be an outlay of half the amount
in Canada for fodder while the stock is in
transit Singham says the route via the
Canadian oaciic is 1900 miles shorter
than via New York or any other Atlantic
port to Liverpool from Montana.

SHOT AND ROBBED.
An Idaho Merchant Murdered near the
Town of Ketchuln.

Aaron Morris, a merchant Of Vienna,
Idaho, was murdered and robbed by a
couple of highwaymen, near Ketchum Sat
dav night. The robbers secured watch
and chain, and $I2 in money, but missed
$500 which was tied up in handkerchief,
aud which Morris wore around his neck.
There was also diamond ring on his fin
ger, but he wore riding gloves and his mur-
derers were apparently in too great hurry
to carefully rifle the body The deceased
was partner in the mercantile firm of /.
Morris & Co., who formerly did a thriving
business in Bingham, and subsequently es-
tablished themselves in the Wood River
country. Their store is in Vienna, but
Mr.. Morris had been collecting in Ketch-
um and was going to HALEY for the same
purpose.
A special dispatch from HALEY says the
governor Of Idaho has offered reward of
1000 for the apprehension Of the murder
ers, making an aggregate of $4,000 reward
now rendered for the criminals. It is ru-
mored that party has been arrested who
has made confession of being connected
with the deed.

SPECIFIC OPHTHALMIA.
A New Disease Among the Cattle Herds
of Eastern Montana.

The White Sulphur Springs H"s60nd-
man saws: A disease reported to be Spe-
cifc Ophthalmia has appeared among
some of the herds Of the Musselshell
and Judith 1t was introduced through
pilgrim herds, and was for some time con-
fined to pilgrim cattle only, but it is be-
coming communicated to native animals.
A white scum grows over the eye, causing
blindness. Sometimes the animal affected
becomes so blind that it has to be led to
water 1t usually gets we'll, but is source
of considerable annoyance, as 1t occurs
principally among milch COWS. There is
no trouble for the animal affected to ind
feed and generally they are not so bind bnt
they can shift for themselves, yet there are
cases where they would suffer and probably
die if not attended to. From what we can
learn it generally takes about two weeks.
1t commences with small >peck in the
corner of the eye. We do not think the
malady serious one by any means. we
have known of it's existence frequently IN
the States, but have yet to lean OF Its
proving fatal.

THE CLEVELAND SCANDAL.
The New York Evening Posts Explan"-
ton. s-4 se-

The scandals about the candidates tor
President are published in ali the newspa-
pers of the land The Boston 1o"rnal
having started sthe Cleveland scandal, the
New York E7euius Post "a Cleveland pa
PERI explains the scandal as follows: "The
Boston Touyual, which has had gro~
zeal to say about what is called the Cleve-
land scandal asks us to investigate the
matter for ourselves, and says it knows 1t
can lead to only one result relying on
our promise not to support notorious
libertine and prohigate' as a candidate for
the Presidency of the United States. There
has been from the beginning but little to
investigate, and that little we have investi-
gated to our own satisfaction. 1t Is ad-
mtted by Governor Cleveland's friends
that twelve years ago he formed an lrreg-
ular connection with a widow, with two
children, the eldest Ii years, old: that she
was person of incorporate habits, and
that the paternity of a child born subse-
quently was doubtful but he accepted it
and made provisions for the child; that
after suffering much annoyance from her
One of the natural and common penalties
OF such errors-and after satisfying her
brotl,er-in- law, who appeared on the scene
as her protector, that he had behaved fairly
! toward her, he laid the whole matter before
| Mr.. Burroughes, lawyer of high stand
ing in Buffalo, that Mr.. Burroughes ad-
vised him to leave it to him, and thereafter
took charge of it; that he Mr.. Burroughes)
conceiying the mother, for the reason given
above, unfit to have the custody OF the
child, placed it in an orphan asylum, the
mother consenting thereto, and making, as
we understand it, legal surrender of the
child for that purpose, and occasionally
visiting it in the asylum afterward; that she
subsequently stole and carried it off from
the asylum; that MIR. Burroughes was no.
tilted of the facts by the authorities of the
asylum; whereupon, acting On his own re-
sponsibility, and without Mr.. Cleveland's
knowledge, he employed detective to dis
cover and look after the child; that in one
of the detectives visits he found the moth
er suffering from delirium tremens and
threatening to kill the child, which lay on
the floor; that he carried her OF to the
Inebriate Asylum for treatment, and she
STAYED there until she was cured, and 10
longer, and that the child was restored to
its previous guardians. The lawyer who
acted for the woman in one stage OF the
affair has formally and in writing repudi-
ated any charge of seduction or breach of
promise of any kind. The family acknowl-
edge that Mr. Cleveland treated her gen
erously. So much for the charge of kid
: mapping which many newspapers have been
spreading"

CHOLERA AND COOLIES.
Both Are on the Way to the This Country
on the Same Vessel.

The U. 5. Consul at Barbados tele-
graphed the State Department at Washing
ton on the 10Th inst, as follows: The
ship Bracadaile LET, St. Lucia for New
York on the 10th, with cholera. This is
the steamer which left Calcutta on the 4th
of June, bound for Demera and New York.
The cholera broke out on her passage, and
on her arrival at Tobe Bay, July 4th, she
was reported to have had eighteen fatal
cases. There were 651 coolies on board,
twenty-eight Of whom were down with the
cholera. The steamer took in coal at Tobe
Bav and left for St. Lucia, where she ar
rived on the 5rd inst. and was placed in
quarantine The health officer at New
York was notified and will quarantine the
vessel on her arrival.

GOVERNOR CROSBY.
What His Excellency Observed i'm the
Park.

Governor Crosby's recent visit to the
National Park has apparently verified the
oft repeated statements that game of every
description is being constantly slaughtered
there, contrary to the laws of both Mon
tana and Wyoming. The Livingston En-
teybyise says: He found that game meats
were openly and daily served on the hotel
tables in the Park; that game was killed in
the Park, in Wyoming or Montana, and in
any case the law was violated. Men, not
knowing him, acknowledged to him that
they were killing elk in Wyoming, and he
had obtained their names. He also OBJ
tanned the name of one man who is regu-
larly employed in killing game in Montana,
and he will be brought to justice. Parties
Of tourist hunters frequently started
through the Park carrying guns and great
stocks Of ammunition, and guides who
openly offer to conduct hunting parties
make their headquarters in the Park. Gov
ernor Crosby has declared war on offend
ers in the Park, and, as experience has
proved, he is vigorous prosecutor Of his
determinations.

MORMON PETITION.
They Want a Reward Offered for the Per
petratOrs of the Recent Massacre.

A dispatch from Nashville, Tenn, dated
the ,1st inst, says: Four leading Mormon
elders to-day presented sworn petition to
Governor Bates asking that reward be
offered for the apprehension of those en-
gagged in the Lewis county massacre, Sun
dav, August 10th. The petition sets forth
that the prejudice against Mormons in this
State is based on ignorance. 1t denies the
charge that Mormons have baptized womei,
in nude state, also that Mormon elders
have ever tried to break up families or mis-
lead women. 1t further denies that Nor
mons have ever attempted to introduce po-
lygamy into Tennessee or any other state
It sets forth that every elder at work in
Southern Missouri is pledged to the most
sacred vows Of charity. Governor Bates
will offer the reward asked for Tomorrow.
It is believed the massacre in Lewis coun-
ty will have the effect of discouragjng
Mormon operators in this State.

Conspirators Shot.

A late dispatch from the City Of Mexico
says it is reported authoritatively that Gen.
Ramirez Mia and two others, implicated
in the recent conspiracy, have been shot by
order Of President Diario. An official
journal publishes = proclamation Of the
conspirators which decrces that Gonzolas,
Diaz and all the others engaged IN govern
ment affairs since the revolution Of Tax
Gala, in 1876, shall forfeit their lives and

LIEUT.. GREELY INIERyIEWED.
What He Has to Say Ab6nt the Terrible
Charge of Cannllnlism.

In an interview at Portsmouth, n. H.,
on the 10th inst, Lieut.. 5reeiy said, as to
the reports of divisions inEthe expedition:
"In regard to the story of two factions,
with Lieut.. Kislingbury "a charge OF the
opposition, will say that is totally false,
having no foundation whatever The
trouble between Kislingbnry .and myself
occurred in 1881, the frsNsyear OF the ex-
pedition. He desired to ne relieved from
duty, and not wishing 10 retain man
against his will, although had the power
SO to do, gave him his liberty. 1t is my
impression that he desired 10 return to the
United States. He weIt southwark, but
the Proteus was sunk, anasf he returned to
duty. treated him as though nothing
had happened, and when, lockwood died l
gave Kislingbury the second place in the
expedition"
"What do you say aboutthe condition of
Kislingbury's body?" asked the reporter.
II say that is news, and horrible news, to
me. All these later disclosures and terri
BILE charges come upon me with terrible
suddenness. can truthfully say l have
suffered more mental anguish in the Mast
few days than did in all my sojourn at the
north, when the chances were a hundred

knowledge, and contrary 10 my discipline.
can make no st, onger denial. l have de-
manded an investigation and it will come
in time, but can say nothing more than
have already stated. Allssny papers and
Kislingbury's diary, LockWood's diary, ,and
in fact every scrap of information relating
to the expedition are in charge of the War
Department at Washington. The crew OF
the Thetis can testify thatthe body of the
last dead, Schnider, was not rnutilated in
any way, and the fact that we kept Ellison
alive in the helpless state we were in ought
to convince anybody We were not canni-
balls. Since my return from Newberryport

they came in a body anti assured me en-
phatically they knew nothing about the
condition Of the bodies qi.ihsir fallen com

WOOL ADVANCING.
Prices on the Turning Point and the De-
mand Good.

A special dispatch Of the 10Th from
Boston gives considerable encouragement
to wool growers and middle men generally.
It says: Transactions in wool show con-
siderable falling off from the large sales Of
last week, but there is better feeling.
There has been good demand, and quite
number Of manufacturers have been in
the market but were rather disappointed
because purchases could not be made at the
low prices current two or three weeks ago.
It is evident prices are on the turning point.
Total sales Of all sorts for the week 3,7oo,-

lEh Perkins London Letter.
When 1 asked a distinguished London
author what kept up tho caste in England
between honest worth and titled vulgarity,
he said;

What do you mean by a 'cad'f' l asked.

call him a boot-licker, a cringing %sycophant
The English editor is always boot-licking the
nobility. The columns Of his papers are all
ways full Of my lord thisa and my lord that.
He runs his newspaper for the aristocracy,
whom he r%everenees. II all the caddi,h
editors would drop the vulgar, worthls
Hristocraey and begin to write about pel-
pie Of worth and brains. the igno-
rant aristocracy would soon die out.
TIN silly editorial cad thinks he musl
lords in very issue to give his newspaper
tone. The paragraph may be inane and
silly, but the name OF a titled lord, he thinks,
will float it. Pick up piles Of The Times and
you will see such paragraphs as this:

Of ~Buckminster returned with their dog
from Nottinghamshire yesterday. After
dining with Lord Blackstone at Morley's they
