Mining Matters ut Tiptic.

From a gentleman recently returned
from Eureka, Tintic, we learn that the
mines OF that section never looked better,
and that regular shipments OF ore are
being made to the smelters in this vicin-
ity. The Homansville mill is working
steadily upon ore from the Mammoth and
Cariso mines, and those properties are
looking better than ever.
Owing to the law suit between the Beck
and Bullion mines on Eureka Hill,
nothing definite can be learned as to their
movements. All the mining and bust
ness interests of the camp are on the inn
prove, and the population is increasing
quite fast. Many new houses are going
up, which gives the town a new air of
prosperity. The people are very much
exercised over the cutting down of the
mail facilities from daily to tri-weekly,
and declare that it is an outrage for a
camp with nearly thousand people in it,
and in the brightest stage of prosperity,
to have blow of that kind brought down
upon it. The citizens hope to be able to
make the Postoffice Departments at Wash
ington see their error, and to have the
daily mail re-establshed at once.

Why He Wanted the Capitol to Fall
on Him.

One OF our local newspaper men was on
the committee appointed to escort the Next
can visitors around the city. He was as
signed to a carriage in which one of the
young ladies belonging to the party was
seated. Taking it for granted that his
companion spoke only her own language,
and knowing that he himself was in the
same linguistic condition, he leaned back
In the carriage and permitted his com
panion to enjoy the scenic delights CT the
journey without word. So the pair
lourneyed to and from the Soldiers Home,
and on reaching the city several places of
interest were visited, always in silence.
As the carriage approached the capitol,
however, the newspaper man felt that he
must say something, even if he received
no answer. Accordingly, pointing to the
noble pile, he CALCULATED: Gel Capitole,
very fine, magnificent" To which the
young lady replied, in good, broad, COM
prehensive American: "You bet your life
it is. y WASHINGTON Letter.

CLAIMED TO BE A MORMON.
A Charming Colleen Refuses to Wed
the Fraction of a Man.

One of our prominent merchants was
recently in the City of Dublin, and had
occasion to visit photograph gallery IN
the endeavor to obtain a negative OF
long lost relative. There was about
twenty young Irish girls employed, re-
touching, coloring and printing photo
graphs, and they watched our California
friend with considerable interest as he
went through files of negatives and held
each one up to the light in his search for
his friend. At last, one of them, bolder
than the rest, approached him and said,
timidly:
"And what was yez looking for, sir?
"For picture of FRIEND" said the
merchant, boldly.
"And what was yez, anyhow-an Eng
lishman, mebbe?"
"No, I'm an American"
"Ah, the dear soul And where did
yez come from?"
"From Utah, Salt Lake." said the San
Franciscan, for fun.

The colleen blushed and curtsied and
finally said: eyer honor, you're fine
looking man and I'd be proud to be called
your wife, l would but Pm not hunting

me-"
The Californian met the proprietor of

The Outlook ON Wood River.

Bullion is dull, but this is owing to the
fact that the mine-owners there are gen.
orally doing dead" or development
work. The Idahoan mine is paying
dividends, and consequently doing better
than ever before. The King of the Hills
(or Bay State) group shows more ore than
ever before, and the Cyclops and
other claims are beginning to produce.
We're it not for the recent fire, and
the temporary shutting down of the
Bullion-Ophir group, Bullion would look
better than ever. Ketchum, Warm
Springs Creek, Lake Creek, Boulder,
Galena, Sawtooth and the upper country
are more prosperous than ever before.
The Galena smelter has been "blown-in,"
the Silver King concentrating works at
Sawtooth are in operation, and new
works are being erected on Lake
Creek. The gold belt is opening up
splendidly, and gives promise of en-
plOying large number OF men and teams
in another year. The Queen OF the Hills,
Overland and other mines around Belle
vue are doing better than ever; while the
Resurrection, Lava and Antelope cOun-
try, heretofore deserted, is being put in
shape for the erection of mills that will
support large population. Taken alto
gether, we believe that this region, as a
whole, never looked more promising

The Presidents Peculiarities.

The Presidents eye never wanders.
He looks you clearly and honestly in the
face, speaks always frankly and directly
to the point if the errand is one of bust
ness, and with decidedly merry and
genial tact if the errand is simply to pay
respects to him. His voice is best
described by the expression of "fat
falsetto." 1t is such voice as you al
ways meet in men of big, fieshy, bulky
bodies. His favorite attitude is with his
hands behind his back, not clasped, but
the palms outward, about six inches
apart, and he unconsciously keeps up a
steady Tapping of the left hand. He
looks at his feet great deal, and some
times seems to be amusing himself by
about on the various figures on
the carpet, especially if the conversation
be wearisome, as it very often his. From
10 until II 80 the President rarely sits
down.-BaltimOre Herald.

The Bathing i'm the Jordan,

The Jordan river has become quite a
bathing resort for the small boys and
young men of the city, and every even
ing dozens OF them are seen bathing in
that stream. In spite of the warning
given them by the drowning of a young
man and boy in the vicinity of where
they battle, they seem to court the dan
ger, and nothing that can be said to them
will make them desist Parents should
inquire where their boys go to battle, and
if possible keep them away from the
treacherous Jordan. 1t is well known that
there is an undercurrent in the river
that will draw a poor swimmer under,
and from which there is scarcely any
chance to escape, owing to the great deuth
of the stream. In dragging for the body
OF the young man that was drowned the
depth was so great that the bottom of the
river could not be reached Parents,
boys, and young men, take warning, or
more food for the fishes will be furnished
by reckless bathers.

Death of Walter f. Davis.

1t is with regret that we have to chron-
icle the death of Walter F. Davis, which
occurred at Rawlins, Wyoming, while en-
route to his home in Pittsburg, Pa. Mr..
Davis was the brother-in-law of Secretary
Thomas, and came to Salt Lake last
November to try to regain his health.
He was afflicted with consumption
and getting no permanent relief in
this climate, left for his old home yester-
day morning. Mr.. Thomas will leave
here for Rawlins tomorrow morning, and
has telegraphed for the body to be pre-
served in ice until his arrival. Mr.. Davis
was well liked by all who came in con-
tact with him while here, and was a
Mason and Odd Fellow in good standing.
1t has not been fully determined where
the remains will be buried.

Mr.. Durant, who for the past few
months has been here purchasing ores
for the Pueblo Smelling Works of Col
orado. will leave HALEY in a day or two
for Butte, Montana, to enter the ore mar
ket there. Mr.. Durant says that the
recent increase of s. per ton in the rate
of freight on ore from Haley to Denver
effectually shuts his works from Wood
River, and they are compelled to seek
another market until such time as the
rates of freight shall be reduced to liv-
ing basis.-Wood Riuer Times. IIth.

Temperance Notes.

AS a result of shutting up the drink
ing-places in Ireland on Sundays, there
has been in the last five years a de-
crease of $27 ,500,0 900 spent for intoxi-
eating liquors.
AT least fourteen states in the Union
have enacted laws requiring physiology
and hygiene, with special reference to
the influence of Intoxicating drinks
upon the human system, to be taught in
the schools supported by the state.
THE Presbyterians propose to make
special effort for the advance of the
temperance cause on this the centen-
NAL year of the temperance reform.
The assembly's permanent committee
on temperance ask for collection from
the churches.
ARCHDEACoN FARRAR will leave for
Quebec in September next. After Wis
iting Canada and the great West, he
intends to spend some time in the At
lantic States. 1t is expected that the
American temperance party will give
him cordial reception, -EngRSh Paper.
IT is computed that the average life
of temperance people is siXty-three
years and two months, while the average
life of Incorporate people is thirty
five years and six months-but little
more than half that of total abstainer.
Yet we are asked to believe that
brandy, beer, etc., are promoters to
health.

Gently followed a drinker in whom she

Just as he was about to take the glass
she tapped him gently on the shoulder
and requested him to go with her. He

covered sufficiently from his amazement
to calculate, " That beats the devil"
The lady turned and emphatically re-
torted, 4" Yes, sir, it was my intention
to beat the devil. Lac and Order.
GENUINE alcoholic liquors are deadly,
but the drugged and adulterated bever-
ages now in use are far worse. He
that lets them alone is safe. He who
tastes single drop may find in him
the appetite of drinking ancestors,
which only waits a spark to kindle it
into devouring flame. Men differ.
Some can drink and stop when they
please. Others cannot. You can set
fire to stick of wood, and put it out
when it is half burned; but if you un-
dertake to burn half a key of powder
you will not be able to stop Just on the
line. Keep fire away from powder and
whiskey away from men.
