HORSES FULL OF TICKS.
A Good Reason Why HOrsc.Owners
Si,Ould Not Again Winter Their Horses
Between Mountain Home aud Boise.


Some of the horses recently brought
in fnSm the range along the Snake
river, between Mountain Home and
Boise, are so full of ticks as to be IN
complete misery. Whenever tick
alights on any part of a horse which
that animal can reach with his teeth,
he can soon rid himself of the annoy
ing insect; but when the ticks get
into the neck, under the fore legs, on
the breast, or some other place secure
from the horses mouth, the poor brute
must bear the pain, as he is helpless.
The owner OF horse recently brought
in spent most of yesterday in trying
to remove the ticks from his horse,
and but partly succeeded. He will
keep at it, though, if it takes him a
week, as he knows that his horse must
be suffering great agony.
1t is really too bad that this pestif-
erous insect should have been brought
to town, as it spreads so rapidly that,
now that some are here, every stable,
if not every house in town, is liable to
be invaded by them. To avoid this
annoyance in future, horse. owners
should be careful not to send theil
horses out to the range between
Mountain Home and Boise.

THE TRIUMPH GROUP.

the Property Passed Into the Hands
of Its Present Owners.

The Triumph, Minerva and May
Leaf claims, on the East Fork of
Wood River, have just been incor-
porated and sold to II Joint stock com.
pany, organized under the laws of
Utah, with headquarters in Salt Lake
City. The capital stock Of this COM
pany is 100000, divided into 100,-
600 shares of the par value of $40
each. TO procure working capital
$4,000 shares have been set aside,
which will be sold for what they will
bring. Some Of it is expected to sell
for II. cents per share or less, and
some for more. The Secretary will
receive 1000 shares for his services
during the first year. The balance of
the stock (75,00O shares) will be d.
vided, in equal parts, between J. O.
Swift, J. G. Conklin, |. /. Lewis and
JOS Pin!lham.
The claims constitute what was
known as the Triumph group, and
owned by Domski & Ilillebrandt.
These men discovered them three
years ago, and began opening them,
taking out some $500 worth of ore.
In doing this, however, they became
involved in few thousand dollars,
and their mining bark stranded in the
sea of litigation, until the debts and
accruing costs amounted to about
$4,000. Pinkham & Lewis, of ket-
chum, paid off all claims, thus acquir-

valuable, the investment may prove
very remunerative.

Trees Masquerading.

"You never saw such funny freaks
as some of the trees in Wayne county
| are up to this fall" said veracious
Honesdaler to reporter the other day.
Zone large maple in field on the De-
lany farm is as green as twas in June,
except on the south side. There
| patches of light red and a semi-circular
splash of yellow have appeared. The
red patches are so distributed as to
| form the eyes, nose, and mouth of a
human face, and so life-like are the
| lines, curves, and standings of the feat
ures that at a distance the effect is
| startling. The sprays of yellow curl
give striking resemblance to a head
dress of blonde hair, adding to the
| startling effect
Not far from this tree is another
maple. A band of scarlet three feet
wide encircles it at the lower branches.
| Above this belt the leaves are green
| all around the tree for about the same
| width as the scarlet. Above the green
| is similar circle OF bright yellow, and
| the rounded top of the tree is a solid
| body of scarlet, rested on the banded
| beauty of the whole like a dome of
| fire.
"A high hill in Texas township is
| cleared of timber from bottom to top,
with the exception of four large trees
| that stand close together on the sum-
| nit Two of the trees are naples.
| The other two are elms. They stand
| about rod apart. One of the naples
has large circular spot of bright red
leaves on the side facing one of the
| elms. All the rest of the tree is still
unchanged from its summer green.
The leaves of the elm this maple faces
have all turned to a rich golden hue,
with the exception of circular spot of
lively green, almost the exact size of
the red spot on the maple. and i'm
medately opposite it. Diagonally
across the second maple, from bottom
to top, extends wild and regular
| strip of leaves of solid green. All but
this verdant streak is flaming red.
The elm opposite this maple has a
| strip running in the same direction
across it. 1t corresponds in width
with the strip on the maple, but is of a
soft golden color. Every other leaf on
the tree is still green.
| "a water birch on the border of
| Middle creek displays, among It's otner-
wise uniform array of yellow leaves,
lines of green leaves that form huge
and perfect human hand.
"a particularly striking effect caused
by autumn foliage is given by two tall
hemlock trees that grow along the
Hawley turnpike. A wild ivy vine has
wound its way up one of the trees and
crept among the branches in all direc-
tions. The leaves of this vine lave
| turned to a most intense crimson, and
| CLEAN here and there in the midst of
the dark and never-changing green of
the hemlock like radiant flowers. A
wild grapevine has entwined itself
about the trunk and up around the
branches of the other hemlock. The
leaves of this vine have become rich
and waxy yellow. and stand out
against the cold color of the tree like
fantastic fashionings of gold. Port

4 Strange Legal Custom.

There are some peculiar customs in
connection with the administration of
the courts of the District of Columbia,
relics OF the old Maryland laws, but
one which strikes the ordinary obsery-
er as the most peculiar is that which
requires winning party to a civil suit
to pay for the tobacco that the jury
which tried the case is supposed to
have used during the hearing of the
case. Now, it happens sometimes, that
not one of the jurors uses tobacco in
any form. and yet the pound of tobac-
CO or its equivalent has 10 be paid the
foreman o. The jury the instant i ver-
diet has been gwen. As litigants or
their attorneys are not in the habit of
carrying So much tobacco in their
clothing, for custom requires pound
be given the jury, the lawyer on the
winning side as soon as tie verdict is
recorded hands the foreman of the jury
81, which is just rs good as the pound
of tobacco. Sometimes Il jury will try
several cases day. If they do they
will get 81 for each case from the win
ner. The juries put all their tobacco
| money together, and at the end of the
term divide it among themselves

fox, '.but l will give you some good
advice. Only a few rods away is a

he will get you out in a jlify."
After the fox had gone the donkey
thus reasoned: Il am very weak for

of strength. If | raise my voice to
call the elephant shall be weaker yet.
No, L shall not waste my substance
that way. 1t is the duty of the ele-

So the donkey settled himself back
and eventually starved to death.
Long afterward the fox on passing

New Houses on Old Sites.

There are, no doubt, many persons
now living in Rome who have beneath
them the residence of some gentleman
of the Middle Ages, under which, per-
haps, is the home of Roman family
of the time of the Caesars; and this may
have been built upon the foundations
of another Roman house, which was
considered good place to live in
some five or six hundred years before.
1t must be very satisfactory thing.
when one is going to build house, to
find beneath the ground some good
substantial walls which will make ex-
cellent foundations. 1t very often
happens that these remains of ancient
buildings are built of larger stones, and
are tirmer and more solid than the
houses which are erected upon them.
There is another side, however, to this
matter, and the remains of old build
ings are frequently very much in the
way of those who wish to erect new
houses, for it does not always occur
that the ancient walls are in the right
places, or of suitable kind, to serve
as foundations for the modern build
ing. Then they have to be dug up
and taken out, which is great labor.
There is handsome American church
in Rome. When this was built, the
work was made very expensive by the
difficulty of getting rid of portions of
walls, arches, rooms. and vaults which
these Romans had left behind them,
never thinking that in the course OF
ages there might be such people as
Americans who would wish to build a
church here.-Frank r. Stockton, in

Grants Plan after Vicksburg.

In his article on the battle of Chatta-
nooga, in the November Century, Gen
eral Grant says: After the fall of
Vicksburg l urged strongly upon the
Government the proprietv of move
ment against Mobile. General Rose
Grams had been at Murfreesboro' Ten
nessee, with large and well-equipped
army from early in the year 1868, with
Bragg confronting him, with a force
quite equal to his own at first, copsid-
ering it was on the defensive. But af-
ter the investment of Vicksburg,
Bragg's army was largely depleted to
strengthen Johnston, in Mississippi,
who was being reinforced to raise the
siege. l frequently wrote to General
Halleck suggesting that Rosecrans
should move against Bragg. By so
doing he would either detain the lat
ter's troops, or lay Chattanooga open
to capture. General Halleck strongly
approved the suggestion, and finally
wrote me that he had repeatedly or
dered Rosecrans to advance, but that
the latter had constantly failed to COM
ply with the order, and at last, after
having held a council of war, replied,
in effect, that it was military maxim
not to fight two decisive battles at the
same time If true, the maxim was
not applicable in this case. 1t would
battles fought the same day, but it
would not be bad to win them. |, how
ever, was fighting no battle, and the
siege of Vicksburg had drawn from
Rosecran's front so many of the enemy
that his chances of victory were much
greater than they would be if he waited
until the siege was over, when these
troops could be returned. Rosecrans
was ordered to move against the army
that was detaching troops to raise the
siege. Finally he did move on the oath
of June, but ten days afterward Vicks-
burg surrendered, and the troops sent
from Bragg were free to return. 1t
was at this time that | recommended
to the general-in-chief the movement
against Mobile. l knew the peril the
Army of the Cumberland was in, being
depleted continually not only by ordl-
nary casualties, but also by having to
| detach troops to hold its constantly ex-
tending line over which to draw sup
plies, while the enemy in front was as
constantly being strengthened. Mo-
bile was Important to the enemy, and,
in the absence Of a threatening force,
was guarded by little else than artil-
lery. Ii threatened by land and from
the water at the same time, the prize
would fail easily, or troops would have
to be sent to its defense. Those troops
would necessarily come from Bragg.
"My judgment was overruled, how
ever, and the troops under my COM
mand We're dissipated over other parts
of the country where it was thought
they could render the most service.
