hills on either side Of the creek ex.
tended to considerable height, pos
sibly more than one hundred feet.
As we approached the brow Of the
bill from which it was expected we
could see Harris camp and possibly
find his men ready formed to meet us,
my heart kept getting higher and
higher, until it felt to me as though
it was IN my throat. / would have
given anything then to have been
back in Illinois, but I had not the
moral courage to halt and consider
what to do. I kept right on. When
we reached point from which the
valley below was in full view / halted.
The place where Harris had been en-
camPed for few days before was
still there and the marks Of a recent
engagement were plainly visible, but
the troops were gone. My heart re-
sumed its place. 1t occurred to me
at once that Harris had been as much
afraid Of me as had been Of him.

Gus SIMoNDI, Grand Master Of the |
|. O. Q. r. for Idaho, who was here
last week, accompanied by his family,
visited all the lodges in this county.
Gus came to this place for double
purpose-the visiting Of the lodge be-
ing secondary. "For value received,
resident Of this place, fourteen. years
ago, made a promise to pay certain
debt, on sight that is, on sight Of
Mr.. Simondi in this place. That was
a condition upon which payment de-
pended. It is very questionable if he
could have got what was promised
fourteen years ago. by legal pro-
cess, for the reason that there is the
color of bribery on the face Of the
transaction. The briber and the brib-
ed are now out of reach of the long
arm of the law, having got over the
lines OF Limitation in point Of time;
but this does not weaken, in the least,
the strong back bone of the double
breasted probability that the bribery
can be proven, and beyond the shade
of the shadow of doubt, and that
fowl means were used In this case,
however, the means will justify the
end, for the end was good one. Mrs.
M. G. Luney was the briber. Gus
was member of the Legislature from
Owyhee county. The question of
moving the county seat Of this county
to Placerville was waxing warm, and
Mrs. Luney, being opposed to the re-
moval, heart and soul, was working
against the bill, and approached Mr..
Simondi, to bride him. Without in
curing his standing on the question
Mrs. Luney said: "Mr. Slmondi, if you
vote against this bill, the first time you
come to Idaho City I'll treat you to a
chicken dinner" Mr.. Simondi agreed
without hesitation. When he put in
his appearance last week Mrs. Luney
was pleased that he had complied
with the condition, and set about,
right away, to prepare the chicken
dinner, and paid up with interest.
Mr.. Simondi was interested to know
If the chickens were fourteen years
of age. He was informed that the
chicks that were being fattened for
him fourteen years ago became aged
and lntlrm many years ago, their heads
dropped off, and they were dished up
to the boarders who exhibit a fond
ness for cracking the old stale joke
about the toughness of the spring
chicken. Since fourteen years ago Mr.
Simondl's family has increased in
number and consequently in interest
and in consideration of this fact, Mrs
Luney was very considerate and paid
with pleasure, the principal with Dig
interest, and it will be understood
now, by the reader, that Gus princi-
pal business here was the interest he
has held in the prospects of that
chicken dinner.

The Circus. When Bill Nye told
a warm friend Of his, (who was the
greatest prevaricator in nineteen
counties), in familiar, sociable sort
of way, that he died like a circus
poster" Bill knew that he was COM
plimenting him in the highest terms
on his accomplishments, but if he had
told him that he lied like Cushing's
circus posters, it would have been
beyond the limits of compliment
and over into the realms of glanng
f1attery. The manager Of this con-

Gushing, If he fails in everything else,
is good in one particular line, and we
believe in giving the devil his due.
He is the champion of champions as
a gigantic, scientific and grandly ar
tistic liar in high-fown language and
glaring colors. After getting inside
the tent, about half of those who paid
their 81 each to see the great what
you-call-it, were charged so cents ex-
ira for the privilege of sitting on the
best seats, and they were poor enough.
The seats on the other side, through
the exercise of the liberal and consid-
crate nature of the manager combined
with conscientious contemplation of
the glazing fact Of the extraordinarily
poor condition of the seats-this
combination getting the better of
the managers calloused cheek and
robblng nature by small majority
were not charged for. There were
not seats enough for all, and this fact
again brought out an exhibition Of
the alias Cushlng's liberal nature, for
those who stood up were not charged
extra for the privilege of standing.
The seats for which no extra charge
was made, becoming disguised with
the performance, crashed down, and
the result was several sprained ankles,
crushed feet and mashed toes. Gone

tons of strength. The two Frush
children, boy and girl, were good on
the trapeze, and bareback rider, a
native of Chill, was very good. The
clowns were sickening. Not funny,
but disgusting. The so-called circus
arrived late Saturday evening from
Boise City; the horses were tired and
SO were the performers, and the ring
was in soft sand. Even if they had
been good performers they could not
have given performance that would
have given general satisfaction. AL
most every feature of the circus was
bad enough, but the ''catch-penny'
business was the worst and most
bare-faced. The brass band was
good.
