To Mr.. and Mrs. Fred w. Gooding,
on Sunday morning, the 9th ms
tant, a son. The young fellow
pulled the beam at ten pounds and
has since been kicking about with
the health and vigor of the full
grown mcataxe he is destined to
handle-that is, if he follows up the
wake of his venerable dad. Both
mother and child are getting along
nicely and give the physician, DR..
Estes, very little trouble. Fred
was down town with the glad It'd
ings bright and early, and showed
his extreme happiness in gener-
Gus way. The KEYSTONE was
kindly remembered as usual. We
wish the parents and child all
happiness.

A Prospect that Will Doabtless'
Prove 10 be % Mine.


The 0. c., in Smoky, is another
of our wonder" mines. Over a
year ago Cornelius O'Connor was
given a grub stake by Don Mckay,
and he located the claim and did
about $50 worth Of work upon it..
The showing not being very encour-
aging, operations were suspended.
Some time after J. 0. Swift, i'm
pressed with the favorable location
of the claim, adjoining the Carrie
Leonard, bantered Mr.. Mckay into
selling his half-intcrest for $50.
A few months ago Sam Allen, w.
H. Watt and George Montgomery
purchased the other half for $50,
and after few weeks put some men
on to do assessment work. A vein
of ore was uncovered which prom
Uses most wonderful results. Eight
tons of it just brought in sampled
over 800 ounces per ton, and the
owners intend to get in here, and
market before snow flies, at least
100 tons. They will then lay in
winter supplies for ten or twelve
men, with the intention of making
a mine of what now they only con-
slider a good prospect-Timcs.

Bob 9tratham Killed by J0hns
ny burns mt Bnyh0rse.

ny Burns nt B0yhOrSe.
News reaches here through a relia-
bic source that man named Bob
Stratham was shot and killed by
Johnny Burns at Bayhorse last
Sunday morning, the 9th ultimo.
The real cause of the trouble is
unknown, save that the two were
gambling and a misunderstanding
arose, when Stratham "healed
himself and commenced shooting
at Burns in the saloon where they
had been. Burns was at first
unprepared, but lodged two shots
by stepping back of the bar, and
then followed Stratham to the side
walk with a pistol. Two more
shots were heard and Stratham fell
MORALLY wounded. The location
of the wound we are unable to
learn. 1t is supposed that Burns
fired both shots, but he did the act
purely in sclf-defense and the COM
mon feeling is in favor of his
acquittal. He made no attempt to
escape. He will probably be
released in the Justice Court.

There are forty-thrce Georges in
the town Of Ketchum and thirty
one in HALEY. And no doubt all
OF them have some time been
accustomed to the title of "Dcar
Geo." But still lady of
ketchum is guilty of the gross
mistake of putting 1926 into an
envelope with no other direction
than "Dear Geo." a line and a sig
nature, and entrusting it to an
absent-minded man for delivery.
Of course he easily found a "Geo.,"
and the 1925 was swallowed up
like a jack-knife in a whirlpool. If
the proper Geo. was ever uneasy
about the 1926 he ought to think
of how the sender daily searched
her husbands old clothes for six
weeks.

Attempted Suicide.

Mr.. Freeman, better known as
"Old Dad" brings us the intclli-
gence that "Lorenzo Dow, who
was formerly employed as driver
on the Kctchum 4 Sawtooth Stage
Line, which was afterwards at one
time under his management,
attempted to commit suicide by
poisoning, in Challis, last Monday
morning. The dose was unknown.
Dow left Kctchum about two years
since and located in that town,
where he has recently been employed
in Willis's stable. He is married
man and the incentive seems to
have been domestic troubles. Dad
says he was unfortunate in not
being successful, as he always likes
to see an unhappy man have his
own way.

Mr.. Stackpolc informs us that the
public school opened up with a roll
of fifty-cight pupils. This indi-
Gates good intention on the part of
the little ones and their parents and
will probably be largely increased
as winter draws near. The organ
ization of the school and grading
of pupils has hardly been perfected
yet, though the teacher thinks they
will do nicely from this on. AS the
roll increases the people must not
forget that there will be an INSULT
cheney of benches, and other i'm
provements needed.
