Bullion Yesterday, to see Jack Horner,
found him quite comfortable. Mr..
Horner was "leaded," but is much

Mr.. Kaiser can hardly move, from

Some of the richest ore ever seen
in Bullion is being extracted from a
recent strike in the Ophir shaft, which
is sunk to connect with the new tun
mel. A road is being shoveled to the
shaft, to permit teams to reach there
to move the ore.

Owing to the lateness Of the SEES

The people Of that section Tor, at

are greatly disappointed at this, and

The bill entitled An Act to Incor-
porate Towns aud Villages, which

The bill to erect capitol buildings
in Boise and an Insane Asylum in

The Governor has also signed the
election bill, which the Democrats
will doubtless contest in the courts, as
it practically DISTINGUISHES the Nor

An Accentric Character.

Andrew Johnston. who has just
died at Huntington, Pa, at the age OF
So, was a strange and original charac.
ter, and was long noted for his eccen-
tricties and for the fantastic jokes he
parpetrated upon neighbors and &C
9uaintances IN his youth. In 1916,
while making a random journey
through the West, he tarried a few
days at Neuyoo, H., at one time the
seat Of Joseph Smiths Mormon
Government. Here he committed a
curious prank. for which he nearly
paid with his life. During a review
of official troops upon the Imperial
esplande before the palace # the
prophet, Johnston strolled with one
companion into the magnificent Nor
mon temple, and Stopping in front of o.
large baplismal font irreverently in
quired Of the guard as to what pur-
pose this large trough was put. His
companion cautioned him against
such remarks. but Johnston sat down
on the spot and began to roll up his
trousers preparatory to wadiEg In the
sacred font. These preparations made
he dashed boldly into the water with
his unsanctifsd feet johnson barely
had time to leap out of the font and
escape the temple. a dozen imperial
guards followed in hot pursuit With
his comrade he Immediately left
Nauvoo on horseback at full speed and
did not rest, except q few hours each
night for sleep, until he reached
Pittsburgh, where his friend left him
for fear OF death At the hands OF his
pursuers. From there Johnston
made his way home alone in safety,
although closely tracked the whole
way BY the Mormon emissaries.
Only after several years had passed
ia the rural quiet Of those times did
he again feel security. But he con
t,nurd to practice his oddities all the
same. During the late war he was a
bitter partisan of the South, merely
because, it is said ais neighbors were
all enthusiastic Unlonists. He named
one OF his sons Robert Il. Lee.
