A Glance AT the Lawn D,stric,

= Glance at the Lava District.
The first discoveries in The new district
were made by Hugh McGraw and a
young man who is quite widely known
and readily responds to the soubriquet of
Whisky Bob. y They have several
claims which show ore of the highest
grade, and are elated over their prospects.
Among the claims which are being
worked and making excellent showing,
may be mentioned the Snowstorm and
Henrietta, owned by MCGEE, Seamonds
& Co.; the Ajax, by Green and Cranston;
and the Blue Jacket, Tallapoosa and
Monday by Armstrong, Selkirk & Co. !;
Buchan, Sawyer and Thompson have
group of four locations which show ex-
ceedingly well, native silver and chlor-
ides being found in the float and crop
pings. The Gertie Vance, owned by
Nose Biddy, is a magnificent prospect,
showing, in the groupings, everything
from pure silver down. The Mollie Oar
ling, Susie Dear and the Lulu Brown are
also deserving of mention, being consid-
cred excellent prospects. What senti-
mental lot of old bachelors the locators of
these claims must be Think of an old
bald-headed sinner, to whom the amiable
weakness would be supposed stranger,
deliberately recording mining claims
under such names as Molle Darling,
Susie Dear, etc. Probably he wishes
to perpetuate the memory of the sweet IL
lusions OF his youthful days or there may
be still the anxious heart awaiting"
away Fback thar in Missouri" Perhaps
it is some Johnny quite recently arrived,
and is smitten with the Establishments of
the Lost River girls. But as the rose by
any name would smell as sweet, SO
doubtless the Mollie Darlings, ETC., will
prove asI true sources of wealth to their
owners as If their nomenclature were sug-
gestive of the Monte Cristo fable, or all
the richness OF Omuz and of Ind.
Some fine prospects have been found
on Fish creek, and on the head OF Cot
tonwood creek, but their value is vet I'M
determined, though many fine specimens
of gold-hearing quartz have been found
there. A townsite, known as Gem CITY,
has been laid out somewhere on Antelope
creek, though but little is known of its
whereabouts, as not even whisky
joint" yet marks the spot
The mineral belt is small, and has
been closely prospected, leaving slight
chances for newcomers to Catch on to
anything cropping out; but there are fine
opportunities for those who are able to
prospect for blind lodges, and many
valuable interests can be bought very
cheaply.-IFood Rirer Times, 1st.

The GAY German.

A very pleasant event of the week was
the German at Mr. Hugh Anderson's,
given by five society gentlemen last
evening. The rooms were brilliantly
lighted and decorated with the choicest
flowers. Soon after o'clock the guests
began to arrive, and the parlors in a short
time presented a gay and lovely aspect.
Thirteen couples were soon whirling in
the merry dance, bearing above their
happy hearts favors of unique designs
The music was splendid and seemed to
inspire the gay throng, while the supper
was extremely appetizing and gave fresh
strength to the late keepers-up of one of
the most enjoyable events OF the season.
The wee hours of the morning saw the
carriages rolling to the different parts of
the city, bearing home the happy parti-
cipants.

The Social Club.

Such is the title of the most popular
club that was ever seen in Utah. 1t en-
braced all classes, and all classes joined
it for the same motive In that club
there was ever feeling of fellowship for
all who belonged to it. There, the high
and the low were upon the same level;
there, all drank the same inspiration, and
there all were filled with a like spirit.
But people will want to know where this
club existed. 1t existed in Salt Lake City
in 1865. The president of it was Charley
Trowbrioge, and its object was to give
man chance to get drink whenever
he wanted it. In 1865 prohibition
reigned in Salt Lake City, and the
only way to evade the law was
to become a member of the social club.
Quite a number did become members of
it, some four thousand two hundred and
eighty persons, and their names are
written on the scroll of time; no, the
scroll OF the club, and when the sheets of
note papers were pasted together the
total length of the names is seventy-five
feet The club caused a great many to
lay their length upon the ground.
This lengthy DOCUMENT is in the posses
sion of Mr.. Chris Delhi, and by him will
be filed away in the archives of the
Masonic Library. 1t is a curious instrl-
ment, and we'll worth look. Mr. Diehl
is gathering up many curious documents
relating to the city, and persons who have
any will confer a favor upon Mr.. Diehl
by presenting them to the Masonic
Library, if they do not care to preserve
them longer.

Tell "a Sad story.

Another family named Woodruff, In the
Twenty-first ward, is afflicted with the
dread scourge diphtheria.
Fred Lambourne, the artist, lost one d
his beautiful little twin boys this morn
ing. at i O'Clock, from diphtheria.
The Herald says there were only ten
deaths from diphtheria last month in this
CITY. which is not an excessive number,
and there is no occasion for alarm.
There are ten members OF the City Coun-
Gil If one death had occurred In each
family of these gentlemen (Which God
forbid. we wonder if their organ, the
Herald, would say there was no occasion
for alarm? Are not ten broken-hearted
families in one month enough to satisfy
the murderous instincts of the Herdldy
Ten deaths from diphtheria in this city
in one month equals 600 deaths from the
same cause in New York City. Would
that city's City Hall organ dare say that
there was no danger of an epidemic, and
proclaim against stricter quarantine reg
ulations?
It is a noticeable fact that the most
numerous complaints and deaths from
diphtheria have occurred above the water
line on the bench, and the residents OF
that section feel positive that the impure
water they are compelled to drink has
considerable to do with its malignity.
The death rate from diphtheria in this
city last month equals in proportion 200
per year in New York and Brooklyn, and
still the Herald says there is no occasion
for alarm, and that the city officials are
not responsible for lack of quarantine reg

He Added Assault to Insult.

A young lady was passing Fifth East
street on First South early last evening,
when her attention was attracted by two
aged elders of Israel who were indulging
in general free discussion. Their voices
grew louder, and very harsh names were
exchanged during the wrangle, till finally
one of the pair called the other liar,
which compliment was returned with a
drawn revolver, and demand that the
unkind epithet be retracted. All
at once the more quiet of the angry pair
raised his cane and proceeded to give the
shooting man sound thrashing. The
revolver was put away and the cane was
lowered, when the two well-known old
gents departed in opposite directions.

Went Down and Struck salt.

The artesian well at Fort Keogh, Mon
tana, is now down into the earth $50 feet.
Mr.. NJ. T. Chapman, the president of the
American Well Works, OF Aurora, Ills,
is now here looking after the work. 1t
will be remembered proposals were in
vited by the War Department for putting
down an artesian well at Fort Keogh 500
feet. The American Well Works were
the successful bidders and at once COM
menced upon their contract. Mr.. Chap
man states that a good flow OF water has
already been struck at several points in
the well. The first water was struck at a
depth of 227 feet, the second supply at
$40 feet and the last flow at 475 feet. The
water now flows in quite large quantities.
The character of the water seems to be
different from that struck in this vicinity,
and upon analysis shows nothing but
salt, although it is not perceptable to the
taste. According to the analysis one GAL

How the Robbers Were Caught.

When within about mile OF the Seven
Mile House, says the Helena Independent,
the coach was stopped by two masked
men, and all were made to throw up
their hands and submit to being search
ed. Two watches and $25 in money were
secured from this haul. The robbers
then broke open the Marysville stage
company's treasure box, and were in the
act of smashing Wells, Fargo's treasure
box, when Gordon, the accomplice,
seized Jackson, and with the assistance
of the deputy-sheriffs, he was quickly
handcuffed, and they were both brought
to town and placed in Jail. 1t was com
plete surprise to Jackson, and it is doubt
full ii he yet knows how the capture was
made. He called to his pal to shoot
when he was seized, but not a shot was
fired and nobody hurt.

and with as much good spirit as was ever
witnessed at the Lake. The regular
shooting match for an elegant silver
pitcher was contested for by ten ofthe
best wing shots in the city, A. Taysum
winning the prize. A sweepstake match,
$3.50 entrance, was shot off between
six OF the marksmen, resulting in a di-
vide between Newman, Brim and CALI
son, when the birds were exhausted.
Not an accident marred the day, and all
returned home in good spirits.
