How They Used to Dress.

Luke ?. Poland is the only relic
of the old statesmen of the days Of
Clay, Calhoun and Webster, says
Washington letter. He still clings
to the swallowtail coat with the
bright gold buttons which were
used by all Of the fashionable men
of that time. 1t is cleaner and
prettier than the Prince Albert or
the cutaway of the present. In
fact, the dress of men has been
growing simpler during the last
century. Washington, who died
in 1899. wore ruffles on his sleeves,
and half Of the men who signed
the declaration of independence
wore powdered wigs. Jefferson
sported knee breeches, and Madi-
son was proud of having worn a
suit Of clothes of American make
at his Inauguration. Daniel Web
ster usually wore a suit Of snuff.

Jackson also dressed well, though
he did not make his clothes great

travagantly high. James Buch

his clothes, always appearing in

Potato Culture.

This subject was discussed bv G..
n. Butler before the Farmers in
stitnte, and was reported in the
Michigan Farmer as follows: The
speaker claimed that the three req
uisitcS for success i'll potato culture

cultivation. The best quality of

should be of medium size and cut to

manipulate the hills little with q

Mr.. Butler plants one eye to the
hill in order TO secure large sized.

perienceIin planting whole potatoes
and different amounts of seed, but
has decided that one eye to the hill
was best where the cultivation and
soil were good. He often gets three
stalks to the hill from ore.eye cut
tings. He usually throws away the
seed end of the potato. To plant
in the usual manner takes four and
one-half bushels, while two bushels
was sufficient under his method of
cutting. He ge;s crop Of LIS
bushels to the acre, plants at the
time for planting corn, and pays no
attention to the phases ofthe moon
at the time of planting. He places
bis manure on the top because a
drought is always to be feared be-
fore the crop is made, and he pre-.
fers to have the manure on top to
act as a mulch rather than at the
bottom to increase the measure OF
slryneSs.
Potatoes are no more likely to

which are golden oaks and elders,

True Love.

No feeling is wholesome where
it comes up as a feeling and is al
lowed to go down as feeling.
Love that burns at first AS love
leaves the heart desolate unless it
takes on activity. All great feel
ings must incaruate themselves and
ASSUME some form ofdefnite action,
OF they will perish, and perish in a
way that after a time prevents
their ever existing again with such
purity and power as in the begin
ming. When the attraction of love
fist bring persons together, and
they come into holy matrimony, if
they all the time wait for this feel
ing to exist as feeling, they will
wait for a miracle; but fit takes on
the form of selt-denial, of mutual
services, Of etiquette, of respect, of
courtesy, of acts of love, then the
emotion changes itself into a habit
Which is better than any mere emo
ton. Love that ceases to have a
flame and has action is deeper than
love that has afame and no action.
But little observation of life is nee
essary to prove this.-N. Y. Trib-
une ami Farmer.

WOOD RIVER
A Military Camp to be Established.

the readers of the MINER will re-
member that about a week ago a dis
patch was received at this office an
nouncing the determination of the
mine owners to apprehend the
principle leaders of the recent
riotous proceedings there. This has
been followed up, until now as the
Wood River Times remarks, sixty
members OF the Broadford Union are
now under $1,000 bonds each, and
that preparatory steps have been
taken for the establishment of a mill
tary company near HALEY. General
Brisbin was ordered from the Secre-
tary of War to bring all or a part of
his command (which includes in
fantry, cavalry, and two Calling
guns to Wood River for the summer.
It looks very much a if Commissary
Wilson was making active prepara-
tons for 8 pr0tracted stay of q tody
of men. The force at Boise numbers
about 100, of which so could come to
Wood River, but as the Gattling guns
can discharge 400 shots each per
minute, and the other arms are of
equally effectiveness, the force could
be used to advantage.
There is no imminent danger of
martial law being declare d however,
as the citizens are adverse to it I'M
less in the direct necessity.
Chris. Johnson,a prominent Wood
River mining man, IN speaking of
the recent troubles, says they are
disastrous to the camp and that its
prospects are all but blighted for
months to come.

MINING SUIT.
A Special Venire Of Additional
Jurors.
The Whole Of the Forenoon Session
Occupied In Argument.

The first case called at the opening
of yesterday forenoon's session was
that Of Joseph r. Walker We. the
Moulton Mining Company ct al. The
suit is for the recovery of 500, 600 for
the alleged extraction of ore by the
defendants from the Rising Star
mine, owned by the plaintiff, and an
additional SIS, 900 for damages to the
Rising Star property.
The circumstances which gave rise
to this important legal contest are
virtually a question of boundary, and
too we'll known to need of much fur
Their description. The case being
called this morning, ajury of twelve
was summoned to the box. Judge
Hiram Knowles Immediately arose
and objected to the entire panel on
the ground that J. Ross Clark, one of
the defendants, was q member of the
Silver Bow County Commissioners,
who had drawn the jury before
which it was proposed to try the
case. and was d brother of two other
defendants in the case and q brother
in-law of yet another defendant. The
whole of the forenoon session was Oc-
cupied in argument on this PROPOSE
ton, and resulted finally in the chal-
lenge of Judge Knowles being sus-
tanned. The jury were discharged
from service, and the Judge and
Sheriff selected a new list of Jurors,
which were summoned by the Sher-
if during the a afternoon.
Plaintiffs counsel also CHALLENGED
the new panel on the ground that
there was no provision for the en-
panelling of a new jury, under
these circumstances, and after hear
ing argument, the objections were
sustained, the jury discharged, and
the cause continued for the term.
1t was expected that this suit would
occupy the remainder of the term,
but as it was SO abruptly disposed of,
Judge Galbraith will call the crimi-
nal calendar this morning for the
purpose tf taking up criminal cases
for the remainder of the term.

Eastern Star.

Last night the ladies of this order
surprised the very many members
who assembled at the Masonic Tenn
pie. This, the third OF the series of
sociable parties, was perhaps more
enjoyable than the others previously
given. The music was excellent and
every detail was promptly carried
out.
The baskets containing the lunches
we're disposed of by auction.
In one basket q pair of twenty
seven year old gum boots "a found.
In another a pound cake which
had evidently crossed the plains
forty-nlne years ago.
In q third basket was found the
horrible reputation of q city editor.
This was presented to the as
semblage free Of charge.
One of the baskets contained q
lament, written by the committee on
credentials and was ordered pub
lished.
P. S. If the lament is published it
will cost $500 per line.
The sixteenth basket purchased
fell to the lot of Johnny Bordeaux.
It cost him nine dollars and con-
tanned the skeletons of q lost family.
There were a hundred baskets pur-
chased.
DIR. G. 8. Whitford was fortunate
enough to receive a package made
from silk and satin ribbons, which
contained sawdust sustenance suf-
ficient to feed q mule for eleven years.
The Doctor was pleased, but If the
mule finds out that he has drawn q
prize, something serious is liable to
occur.
The ladies have been prolific in
their every introduction of new fea-
lures and will so demonstrate them
selves from this time forward.
