a dispatch Of the goth says: a terri
bic explosion took place yesterday
IN the Pendbury Colliery, near
Manchester, England. Sixty persons
were rescued alive, and seven dead
bodies were recovered. A hundred
miners are still below, and there is
only faint hope that any of these
can be saved. The cages in which
the volunteers were defending to the
bottom Of the pit got stuck in the
shaft, and it was two hours before the
party could get to work. The rescued
state that when the explosion occurr-

Humor of Indian Troubles.


On Sunday atelegram addressed to
"the Governor was delivered to Sec
rotary Curtis, who found its contents
to be as follows:
EAGLE Rock, Idaho, June 20.
The Gocernor Of Idaho:
Trouble with the Indians is feared.
Please send me one hundred stand of
arms and five thousand rounds cart
ridges. Answer. ED. F. WYNN.
Deputy Z. S. Marshal.
No particulars of the Anticipated
trouble or its cause have been receiv-
ed, and OF course NO action could be
taken upon so vague and indefinite a
request. A dispatch to the Salt Lake
Tribune from Camas, dated June 90
may contain an explanation of the
matter, as it gives an account of the
troubles at the Ross Fork agency as
follows:
There We're four Indians killed to-
day at Ross Fork agency, Idaho. The
trouble was occasioned by couple of
Bannocks who have been depredatipg
on agency stock for some time. Hear
ing that they Were about to be arrest
ed for their thefts, they drew the In
dian police out from the agency this
morning, and opening fire upon them
killed two and wounded a third, the
others escaping. Later in the day
about 200 police surrounded the
thieves near the agency and riddled
them with bullets. On returning to
the agency the police appeared orazed
with excitement, and for a time a
general outbreak seemed imminent.
as all the Indians killed had relatives
and friends at the agency. The agent
finally succeeded in reducing them to
quiet.

LODE LOCATED ON PATENTED PI4c-
ER URoUND.-The Leadville case of
Campbell vs.. The Iron Silver Minino.
Company, has been decided by JUDGE
Hallett in favor of the former. The
placer was first patented, and then
the lode called Sierra Nevada. which
covered a portion of the patented
placer. The Iron Company applied
Tor an injunction because of the sem
lority of their title, the lode owners
defending on the ground that the
placer patent expressly excepted
lodes or mineral veins which m,oht
exist beneath the surface of the plac-
er ground. Judge Hallett confirmed
the lode title, and an appeal VIII be
taken to the United States Supreme
Court
Inc Judge, IN rendering his decis.
ION, observed that whether lode can
be located entirely inside the lines Of
a patented placer, was not decided
IN this case Of a partial covering of
the placer, the question of the valid
y OF a lode located wholly within the
placer boundaries being involved in
case now before the United States

"A TOp-Heayy Navy

The Naval Register for 1885, lust
issued at Washington, contains inter-
esting and instructive reading. 1t
shows that there are borne on the ac-
tive roster of the service, one admiral,
one vice. admiral, : rear-admirals, 16
commodores, 45 captains, So com
manders, "a lieutenant commanders.
257 lieutenants, 80 lieutenants of the
junior grade, 1873 ensigns, 81 naval
cadets, 15S medical officers, 535 en-
gineer officers, 81 professors and chap
lains, 81 naval constructors and 200
warrant officers, total Of 1913 in
addition to 81 officers of marines.
On the retired list there are 1877
officers of all grades, but mostly of
superior rank, and consequently in
the enjoyment Of superior pay. The
list comprises As admirals, drawing
$4,000 year each, and 80 commo-
dores, who receive $500 persnnum,
each, and with those on the active
list make the total number of officers

I've OF the cadets at the Naval Acad-
envy.
The number of serviceable ships in
the navy is 35, of which one is first
rate, IL second rates, 10 third rates
and 4 fourth rates.
The Register further shows that
the admiral lives in Washington. and
has nothing to do but draw his salary
OF sl3,0O0 a year. The vice admiral
is chairman of the Lighthouse Board
which is In session about an hour ev
cry month, and of the seven rear-ad-
mlrals, but two command squadrons.
the others being assigned some nom
inal duty ashore to enable them to
draw duty pay, while not one of the
sixteen commodores is at sea. Of the
forty-five captains, six command ships,
twenty weight have nominal duty
ashore, while eleven live quietly at
their homes, and of the whole staff
corps Of $50 officers, but 70 are at sea.
Some means ought to be adopted
by Congress to relieve the Navy of
its top-heavy load of officers, as it is
unjust to the people, who have to foot
the bills, to pay fat salaries to 1900
men in one branch Of the service,
who render the country no equivalent
whatever for their pay B

stage, from Portland. They intend
ed to start at II o'clock on the day
that their brother John arrived at

received a few hours before their
brother got there. If he hadn't tele-
graphed John would probably not
have seen them. The happy meet

THAT bet of 200 pound hog, on
matrimonial failure, or fetch, is a
sort OF porker game, and the one
who was taken up said he would go
the whole hog or none on the pair.
In case of failure, the hog is to be
driven from here to Garden Valley,
and If the citizen of this place takes
the pot on the pair, the hog is to be
driven from the valley to this place.
Both parties are now "Sifering" on
the value of the pork and expenses
of the drive. We are requested not
to give away the seeker after matri-
monial bliss, as he would feel bad if
he should fail to fetch and to have
it given to the WORLD wouldn't con-
sole him. Would add to the grief.

ONE of the Omaha excursionists
writing to the Omaha Herald, surely
did not construct some parts Of his
letter on data furnished by Idahoans.
lie goes from the town of Shoshone
to Shoshone Falls-t thirty miles-in
company with twenty-four other ex-
curslonists, and in passing through
the desert and near the lava beds. he
probably recalls what he has read
about the lava beds-but not those of
ldaho-and thus sprinkles in bit Of
history: ut was on these prairies of
Southern Idaho that the Shoshones
used to make it very lively for the
white lntruders who were hunting for
gold along the banks Of the Snake.
Some miles to the west is the spot
where Captain Jack made his great
hight In the lava beds, and off to the
northwest one can almost trace the
trail over which General Howard
chased Chief Joseph and his Nez
Perces warriors across the Blue noun
tains into Oregon" This writer states
that "the existence of these falls was
unknown to the white men until ten
- y
years ago" Although the Omaha
scribe has badly jumbled pieces of
history, the following extract is no
doubt reliable: "Charles H. Dewey,
Nebraska's greatest traveller, became
impressed with the grandeur of Sho-
shone Falls three years ago, and form
ed with John A. Creighton and w.
"A. Clark, of Butte, Montana, a sort
of close corporation for the improve
ment OF the means of seeing and en-
Joying them. The first work done bv
these gentleman was the cutting of
the road into the canyon from the top
of the rock, job on which they have
expended $4,000. Their plans EN-
brace the erection of $4,000 hotel
on the south bank of the Snake. and
a cable ferry across the river above.
lt, narrow guage road from Shoshone
and suspension bridge from cliff to
Cliff, below the falls, have place in
the intentions of these gentlemen.
1t is the custom Of sight-seers to
attempt to portray the beauties of
nature with cold type. In some in
stances it can be done to feeble ex-
tent. OF Shoshone Falls no man
living has the power to convey even
the faintest conception. Colorado
probably affords scenery fully as
rocky, rugged, and awe-inspirine, but
nowhere on the earth's surface exists
such a wierdly grand combination of
rock and water, of high ledge and
tumbling cataract"
