A Good Race Made.

John Condron yesterday entered
into an agreement for Tibbetts, of the
HALEY Base Ball Club, with Billy w.
Davis, to run 100 yards for 500 a
side. The race is to be run on Sep
TENDER LIST, at the Haley Park, and
will surely come off, as the money is
all up at Smith & Condron's, and
either party failing to come to the
scratch when time is called, according
to stipulation in the agreement, for
feits his 800.
Davis is prospector, and has just
come down from the Challis country.
He is said to be above the average
foot racer.
Tlbbetts returned to Haley this
morning, having learned of the match.
He is confident Of winning, and says
that while he is morally certain that
he will, he will nevertheless train a
little, to be doubly sure. Davis has
struck porphyry horse in Tibbetts,
and can win good deal of money If
he can get around him. Judges will
be appointed on the grounds.

THE CANVAS GOLD BELT.
A Wiswell Mill to be Put in Thera
without Doubt.

d. d Brockway, agent for the Wis
we'll mining machinery, and Captain
Buzzo, of Ketchum, hare retu, ned
from their inspection of the Camas
gold belt, and the samples and assays
OF the rock brought down by them
have been most satisfactory.
These gentleme are so we'll pleased
with that region, from rather extensive
operations, that they have about de-
terlnined to purchase some properties
there, though as yet have made no
definite arrangements in that direc.
ton.
Mr.. Brockway says he has also con-
cluded that Wiswell mill would be
apaying investment there, and intends
to put one in as soon as he can COM
plets the details he has already be-
gun.
That every hole in the grou nd will
develop into a paying mine canno,
be expected, but that there are with
out doubt some good properties there,
that will develop and yield handsome
ly, these gentlemen have no doubt.

None OF the Muddle.

II. Y. Burkhart to-day sent the fol-
lowing self-explanatory dispatch to
the Shoshone Journal:
HALEY, Aug. Fl, 1885.
w. c. B. ALLEN, Editor Shoshone
journal:
Owing to the many false rumors
being circulated, l wish to state in
behalf of the Wood River Base Ball
Club that we had no i'll feeling
against the base ball club of Sho.
shone, nor against her good citizens.
Our treatment from their hands
was excellent, save the receipt
from the managers of twenty dollars
instead of seventy dollars, as under
stood. In confirmation of the latter
statement refer you to Messrs. Cald
we'll, Ratclif and McMasters.
Respectfully,
H.Z. BURKnAnr, President.

This morning, the bus was stopped
on the way to the depot, and Don

Bews, runners for the three hotels in

understanding just arrived at, that no
runners for these hotels should 90 to

THE LAVA DISTRICT.
Mr.. Schwamb Returns from a Visit to
His Prospect, Well Satisfied.


G. W. Schwamb returned yester-
day from a visit to his mine. near
Era, notice of which was published
in the TIMES few days since. He
still rejoices. The ore-vein struck is
not nearly SO large in fact as in the
Imagination of those acquainted with
the peculiarities of the Lava District,
but the richness of the ore makes up
for the deficiency in bulk.
Nearly as many sacks are on the
dump as was reported heretofore, and
indications are that occasional sulphu.
rets may be taken out while still
prosecuting the work of development
This would seem to bear out tie
theory Of the best informed mining
men in this region, to wit: that yer,
rich ore is not generally found in
large bodies. Good things come If
small parcels, as it were.

=. f. Annett, General Business
Manager OF the Telephone Company,
has succeeded in making a satisfao-
tory compromise in the matter of
lower rates between Ketchum and
haley. The rates heretofore have
been as follows: For subscribers, rs
cents; non-subscribers, 5oeents. In
future they will be Is and Is cents.
respectively. The rental for resi-.
dences has been reduced to a per
month.
In consequence of these reductions
the Merchants Hotel will put in an
instrument again, and j. o. Swift will
have one at his HALEY residence.
"A change has been made in the
system of ringing. Heretofore one
ring vas rung for either the central
office or subscribers. This led to
much confusion. In future, when it
shall be desired to call the central
office, one ring will be rung; when a
subscriber shall be wanted, two rings
will be required. By this change the
service will he materially improved.
Mr.. Annett will go to Ketchum this
evening; thence to Salt Lake CITY.

San FrGEcSeo POti.
Three years ago, when Haverly's Min
strels we're exhibiting at Atchison, Kan,
a large and handsome bird.dog followed
the troupe away, and travelled with the
company long time. he seemed to be
attached 10 all the members Of the party,
and was always the frat on the train upon
leaving, the first at the hotel on arriving
at a city, and trotted along ahead Of the
parades.
Besides, he proved an excellent worker
in the field, as several sportsmen among
the company had tried him, and so Dick
became iavorite with one and all. A
few weeks before the company sailed for
England they stopped at Grand Rapids,
where the dog got lost by getting off at the
wrong depot. The most diligent search
was made, but the minstrel boys were
obliged to depart without their canine
friend. His loss was much regretted by
the entire party, as they had become
greatly attached to him.
Three months ago the Ministries sEain
appeared at Grard Rapids, Mich, and
what was their surprise to find "Dick"
sitting or the depot platform wagginG bis
tail to welcome his old comrades upon
their return. He accompanied them to
the hotel, followed them to the depot,
Jumped aboard the train with them and
came as far as Denver, where he was left
in charge Of Mr.. MeConrt, manager &
Tabor's Opera House, until the company't
return. Manager Might says that Dick
is now registered as a permanent member
Of the company.

Saving Life and Property-whHt May be
Done At Small Expense.
To he Editor OfAe IHtsitqaea.
slR:-The attention Of Congress is call
ed to the fact that some Of the terrible loss
OF life and property due 10 tornadoes can
be ayerted. In 1882, Professor T. b.
Maury, asserted what was then the fact,
that the prediction OF a tornado was a
triumph yet to be attained by the science
of meterology. In less than two years
from that time some predictions OF lorna
does were successfully made by Lieutenant
John P. Finley, OF the Signal Service.
The percentage OF verified predictions is
steadily increased by knowledge OF the
average conditions preceding each series
OF torEadoes, thus making the predictions
more definite and local with each succeed
ing year. Already the predictions Of
safety for the day ara effective. OF 1925
predictions unfavorable to tornadoes,
made in 1884, 3l0l were verified, and Of
IS predictions that tornadoes would occur
made in April and June, 1884, Is were
verified. OF 10 predictions made that
NNutN SSNhAt Ah VAAV
aud July, 1885, 10 were generally verified.
When tornadoes predicted, in no instance
did violent storms fail TO occur, either
hurricanes, tornadoes or hail.
The failure Of some prediCtionsis doubt
less due to inaccurate and insufficient re-
ports from sparsely settled regions. While
it is admitted that nothing like absolute
control ofthese phenomena has been at
tanned, yet the above figures clearly justify
the presence OF tornado signals either Of
safety or danger at every telegraph station
in Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri, IllinoiP,
Iowa, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia
and North Carolina, especially during
April, May, June, July, August and Sep.
TENDER. 1t is hoped that Congress will
direct the Signal Service to submit esti-
mates OF the expense necessary to estab.
fish such a system OF signals. The cost
would be few thousand dollars for flags
or colored discs, and for telegraph services.
