confessed to a homicide committed
twelty years ago. There was no sus-
plcion against him and never had been
any. On the contrary, an entirely
innocent person was tried for the

where he died protesting that he had
nothing to do with the crime for which
he had suffered a terrible punishment.

Alaska will soon become the chief gold

IF hen lays six eggs in one week,
how long will it take mason to lay
brick wall?-lRegister.
Well, we must admit that we're
not much of an "arithmetician," and
can't figure it out eggs-actly on the
interrogative layout given. 1t depends
a good deal on weather the mason is
laying on a contract or for so much
per day. We give it up, pass, lay the
problem aside, and will tussle with it
at some future time. 1t is pretty hard
to figure out how long it would take
a mason to lay brick wall, but not
very close figuring to tell how long it
would take brick wall to lay mason.
With the conditions all favorable the
time required would lack only two or
three seconds of being less than no
time. Mr.. Register, give us something
easier next time.

THE MARBLE QUARRIEs OF CAssIA
CoUNrY.-Mr. NJ. B. Baird, capital
list of Eastern Oregon returned on
Saturday from a visit to the marble
quarries now being opened in Cassia
county by A. B. Roberts of this place.
These quarries are situated in what
is known as the Little Basin on Little
Basin creek, tributary of Goose
creek, and at the foot of the Goose
creek range, six miles east of Oakley.
Mr.. Baird reports himself as highly
pleased and, in fact, astonished at
the immense quantity of this beauti-
full white marble. The ledge, appar-
emily, is 200 feet thick and is in layers
of from two inches to six feet in thick.
ness. The marble crops out two hum
dred feet high at the foot of the hill,
and appears to be mostly pure white,
although there are some layers of blue
clouded marble. Mr.. Baird says he
saw slabs of marble quarried out there
8 feet square and four inches thick,
ready for the polishing bed, and large
blocks six to eight feet square; also
shafts six to eight feet long and Is
inches square. In fact almost all di-
mansions of stone ready for the cut
ter's chisel. We see at the shop of
Mr.. Roberts, in this city, slabs dressed
out and polished that glisten like q
pane of glass, which is conclusive evil
dence of the fineness of the marble
and capacity to take high polish.
Arrangements are being made for the
erection of mill at the quarry and
next summer hundreds of tons of thus
marble will be shipped from Shoshone
to dealers east and west of here. We
look with interest at this enterprise
and all Others which tend to develop
the hidden resources of our surround
ing country and wish them cuccess.-

PASSENGER TraIn BADLY wrecked.
Idaho Register Dec. 18th.

AuanO At8lSter lee. 18th.
Yesterday morning, when the south
bound passenger train was about FIVE
miles north If Market Lake station,
two coaches and sleeping car were
thrown from the track and into the
ditch, caused by broken rail, the
superstition being that it was broken
by the engine, which, together with
the baggage and express car passed
over safely. A number Of passen-
gers in the cars were badly shook up,
four Of them receiving slight injuries,
while VIM. Palmer was instantly kill
ed. His remains were brought to
Eagle Rock where an inquest was
held by Justice Of the Peace Wheel
er, the testimony showing that in all
probability, when the car left the
track, ne jumped through the window,
breaking his neck by striking on the
head, the car finally falling on top of
him. An examination by DR.. Bean
showed that his neck was broken, his
chest crushed in, both arms broken
above the elbows, and the trunk Of
the body broken at the waist, causing
instant death.
Mr., Palmer was employed in the
bridge gang, and with some compan-
ions left Camas to come to Eagle
Rock. His home was in Logan,
Utah.
The Coroner's jury returned ver-
dict in accordance with the above
facts.
On the rear of the train was Gen.
Superintendent Dickinson's car, in
which were Assistant General Mana
Iger Kimball, General Passenger
Agent Morse, Assistant General Pas
senger Agent Stebbins, General SUI
perintendent Dickinson and several
others. This car became uncoupled
and passed over the broken rail in
safety, not leaving the track.
The injured passengers were
brought to Eagle Rock, where the
train remained until DIR. Bean dress
ed the wounds, when they proceeded
on their journey
Since the above was written we
have learned from Mr.. Fleming, a
partner of Mr.. Palmer's, who was
with him, that he was thrown from
the seat through the window on the
opposite side of the car.
The deceased was son-in-law of
w. F. Fisher of Oxford, and leaves a
young wife and one child to mourn
his untimely death. They will have
the heartfelt sympathy of many
| friends.
Mr.. w. F. Fisher came up last
night for the remains.
