DISTINGUISHED VISITORS.
Shall We Induce Them to Come Ia
Wood River for n Day and a Halfg

Wood River for Day and a Half?
w. e. Pabor, Secretary of the Col
orado Press Association, writes tie
TINES stating that the Association will
visit Portland this summer, and ask
ing if, in case Haley is visited en-
route, the people would be pleased
and make any effort to render their
visit agreeable?
That the visit would greatly re-
dound to our advantage there is no
doubt, as all of these gentlemen, in
writing up their trip, would mention
Wood River, and thus advertise US.
But a cash fund Of fully $500 would
be needed, to entertain them. For
instance, on their arrival, they should
be met at The depot with carriges, and
taken to their hotels; thence to the
springs; back for lunch; to Bullion
back by $3.50 O'Clock; supper; ball,
with an orchestra OF at least seven;
breakfast mex: morning; then to the
depot, where they would take the
train to ketchum, where they could be
shown through the smelling and con.
centrating works, and return to Sho'
shone by the afternoon train. The
excursion will take place in July.
Are the business and mining mer
of Bullion, Ketchum, Bellevue anc
HALEY willing to contribute the sun
stated $500 to entertain these gen
tlemen? The letter will be held fou
or five days to give them an opportu
nifty to inform the TINES of theil
intention.
If no steps are taken by the parte
interested to entertain the proposed
visitors, the writer will, in few days
in replying to Mr. Pabor, notify hin
) accordingly.

to makes fine lawn in two seasons,
with the proper care. They sell them
for IS cents per pound--one pound

BAIRD'S MAMMOTH MINSTRELS.
A Troupe Which is Superior Even to
Hayerly,s World. Famous MuStOdOnS.

haverly's WOrld'FamOnS MnStOdOns.
Baird's Mammoth Minstrel Troupe
appeared in HALEY Theater last night,
the audience being literally packed
like sardines in box. There was not
even standing room. Nor was this
anything but deserved, as the com.
pany is by long odds the hest that
ever visited Wood River, and its en-.
tertainments keep the spectators in
perpetual roars of laughter or contin.
ued rounds of applause.
The show began promptly at Sis
and continued without halt or wait
for two-and-a-half hours. 1t was a
continuous feast. The first part
brought 20 members Of the company
before the foot-lights, and comprised
the usual round of dialogue, ballads
and witty sayings. The puns were
execrable, the jokes entirely new
many of them of local application anu
evidently original, and the vocal and
instrumental music very superior
The parade of the White Star Roya
KING was fitting finale.
The second part began with Pro
fessor Hardy, the equilibrist, who per
formed really wonderful feats. A low
table stood in the auditorium, back @
the orchestra. On this table wer
placed four demi johns; on top Of thes
demijohns chairs were piled up, on
after another, until the performe
touched the lofty ceiling with his feet
As he performed his dangerous feats
many of the spectators were spell
bound, while others could not eve
bear to look at him.
The great military act and light
ming evolutions of Major Gorma'
with u!l-wcight regulation muske
and bayonet, was wonderful.

A New " canon of Death.

A London correspondent of the New
York Times describes new weapon to
be seen at the Inventors exhibition, re-
Gently opened in that city, which in its
capacity for the destruction of life bids
fair to excel anything now used in war
fare. 1t is.the invention of Mr. Maxim,
an American.
Conceive weapon, says the CORE
spondent, weighing only sixty i've
pounds, mounted upon a tripod, which
can be lowered, raised, moved laterally
with one Rand as easily as garden hose,
and which pours out automatically 600
shots a minute
1.-THE basis of it all is the utilization
of the recoil force to fire the next shot
Each time the recoil energy, instead of
being wasted in kicking the gun over,
is used to eject the empty cartridge, and
fire it. The cartridges are taken in from
the bottom in chain, just as the per-
fecting press takes paper from the roll
Each of these chains has 1888 cartridges
packed in box which is set in groove
under the gun. The operator has simply
to start the gun-a matter of seven
turns Of the hammer crank-and then,
when the chain of cartridges is nearly
exhausted, fasten a new chain to the
hook at the end and push out the old
box with new, full one. For the rest
he can devote his attention solely to
training the weapon.

A Queer Snnerstition.

Abram Reed, farmer living in Beaver
township, Penn, cut down large oak
tree on his farm, and in cutting it up he
found, imbedded in the trunk, seven OF
eight feet from the ground, small glass
bottle and what had the appearance of a
lock of hair. The bottle had been in.
serted in hole in the tree made by an
augur, then a pine plug was driven into
the hole over the bottle, the hair also
being held in the hole by the plug.
The bottle was corked, and contained
colorless liquid. Over the plug had
grown six solid rings of wood, beside
thick bark There was a superstition
among the early settlers, and it is held
by many of their descendants, that asth-
ma and other. affections could be cured
by the victim standing against the tree
and having lock of his hair plugged in
it while the hair was still attached to his
head. Ii must then be cut off close to
his head, and the afflicted person walk
away without looking at it or ever pass
ing by the tree again. While the use of
bottle was not included in this treat!
meRt, it is believed that the one with
the hair discovered in the heart of tho
oak tree was put there in the early days
of the settlement by some believer in the
superstition to cure an ailment of some
kind. -Lamber World.

In sixteen OF the States there is no
provision OF law prescribing the form and
size of the ballot. In Florida and Lou
isiana the prescription seems to be that
the ballots must be printed on white
paper. In North Carolina and Oregon
the paper must be white and without de-
vice. In Nevada nothing is said about
the color Of the paper, but the prescribed
size is four by ten inches In Illinois IL
is provided that there shall be d blank
space below each name. This require.
ment seems to be distasteful, as it is often
observed only in the most formal way.
In Minnesota the ballots in cities must
be of white paper and of equal size. In
South Carolina the tickets must be white
and without device, and two and one.
half by five inches in dimensions. In
Vermont the law prescribes only the form
of the words in which the ballot shall be
printed. In Rhode Island the ballots are
furnished by the secretary of state in self
sealing envelopes of uniform size. OF
all the modes, this is said to be tha best
for the prevention of frauds.

The princess de Sagan has recently
given in her magnificent mansion in
Paris the annual fete which once in each
twelvemonth sets the gay capital--or
rather its aristocracy-in a state of &c.
stacy. The invitations oblige all to come
in costume recalling some beast, bird,
insect or fish, and to initiate their cries
or mutisms. Buttons natural history
became thus ransacked by the milliners
of both sexes. The lion and the lamb
sat side by side. So did cats and rats,
eagles and bats, blackbirds aud hawks,
tigresses and foxes, vultures and ca
naries. On entering, each gentleman re-
ceived a flower, which marked his place
at the table and where he would find a
partner. The Due de Grammont was
parrot; the Comte de Chabrol black
cat; some Russians were wolf dogs some
sportsmen turkey cocks; the hostess
was peacock; Nine. Rothschild a til
gress; there were swarms of bees on the
lookout for flowers, and swallows in
fight after insects. The royalist, or
rather, religious, press deplores this
spectacle of the degradation of the
noblest names OF France; the republic
can prints defend it, on the plea that,
being fit for nothing else, the least the
aristos could do was to make fools Of
themselves.

News from Surtago, in Java, published
in the Dutch newspapers, report that
volcanic activity has recommended in
that island. Smeru, which is about
-, 900 feet high, on the borders of the
districts of Matang and Probolingo,
began several weeks ago to throw out
ashes, and an extensive eruption of lava
took place, and has continued since. A
great coffee plantation which stood on
the side of the mountain has been de-
stroyed. The manager removed bis wife
and family to place of safety; and
with eighty workmen was endeavoring
to make passage for the lava, should it
reach the plantation. In the night an
upheaval of the upper part of the noun
tam took place, and an avalanche of
stones, ashes, and sand, mixed with lava
and water, poured down. In the morn
ing all traces of the plantation and its
people had disappeared. Krakatoa, in
the Straits of Sunda, famous for its out
burst of last year, is again making itself
heard; and Blictar, another volcano, is
giving warnings which may portecd
either an earthquake or an eruption.

An OYerheated Bat,

Early one December day writes a cor
respondent to the New York Sun, when
the snow began to fly was much sur
prised to see silver haired bat fly into
my hallway, having been unable evidently,
to find q place in which to lie dormant.
1t was bitter cold night, and l placed
the bat in pasteboard box containing
cotton, where he hung himself by his
claws to one edge and went into his tor
pid sleep. After two weeks | told him
to wake up for refreshments, but received
no response. Then l placed him by the
fire and he came to life, took some water,
flew around the room, ate dead fly
which he found on the top of the library
case, and finally attached himself to a
pendant painting, and again went into
torpidity.
One month afterward I recalled his
lonesome condition, took him down, and
subjected him to heat. He seemed to
be hopelessly gone. held his nose to
a mirror, and obtaining two faint spots
of breath, placed him in the cotton lined
box on an ornament of the stove, and
turned to my writing. Soon my atten,
ton was aroused by dreadful odor.
looked around and discovered the box
on fire. Before l could reach it out
sprang the bat, only to drop dead on the
floor, evidently frightened or heated to
death.
These and other facts show that tor
pidity is not caused by extreme cold,
although the sensation is similar to that
of freezing. Bears living in torpidity
hibernate in warm place, and for the
same reason reptiles and frogs crawl into
the mud to escape frost. Torpidity is. a
conundrum, and we give it up.

In medicine the plague is very malig-
nant and contagious fever, rapid in its
progress and accompanied by buboes,
carbuncles and petechie. 1t spreads
rapidly by contact, and is usually fatal
to two thirds of those whom it attacks.
Its true and permanent home seems to be
in the regions bordering on the eastern
extremity of the Mediterranean. At diff
ferent periods of the fifteenth, sixteenth
and seventeenth centuries it visited
Western Europe. 1t last attacked Lon
don and England almost generally in the
years 1663-l665; while SO late as 1870 it
destroyed nearly half the population Of
Marseilles, and seventy years afterward
prevailed in Russia and Poland, since
which time it has been almost unknown
in Western Europe. 1t is now limited
chiefly to Egypt Syria, Anatolia, Greece
and Turkey, occasionally extending
northward toward Russia and westward
as far as Malta.
