mercantile establishment Of p. Hickey
at Salubria, writes to his friend Doan as
follows:
In consideration OF the circumstances
that numerous prospoctors will undoubt-
edly desire to perlgrinate to and explore
the boundless argentiferous and aurifer-
GUS neighborhood known as the Seven
Devils mines as soon as practicable dur
ing the coming season, consider it ad
visable to assoverate to the participants
in this struggle for good locations that
there is Incorporated space sufficient
for all and it is my mental conviction
this year will see developed minos which
will overwholm with surprise the most
sang uine. Salubria City is the nearest
Quitting point where vast profu,on
Of all supplies necessary for tho health
and welfare OF miner may be had at
ridiculously low figure. L would deem
it unadvisable for any prospeciors to
come to this country without sufficient
collateral to dtfray all necessary eI-
penses incurred in carefully examining
This amazingly rich and picturesque
place. Spsclmens of copper ere and
numerous rich chlorides are to DO seen
at Weiser and Salubria City, which will
prove my assertions as to the uaparal-
ieled riches Of these mighty mountains
boy ond the shadow Of doubt.

kissing his partner. Richard Brummlt, "a
Young man, found himself 10 be the last
ont, and placing his arm around the
waist OF Miss Fannie Crawford, beau-
tiful blonde, claimed Il kiss from her.
She objected, aud when Brummlt good
naturally persisted she gave singing
smack with her hand. Without think
ing Brummit said to Miss Crawford:
You are Il fool" and turned TO walk
away. \ brother of the lady rushed
up ut this juncture and demanded that
Brummit should retract what he had
said. This the latter refused 10 do,
whereupon Crawford knocked Brun-
nit down. When he arose Brummlt
drew u huge dirk, and before any one
could interfere plunged it to the hllt
In Crawford ; breast three times, kill
ing him instantly. The blood spurted
out on the ball room floor, bespattering
the dresses of several ladies standing
near.
