The total loss by fire in the United States and Canada for this year has already reached the enormous amount of $1O5, ,000, 900, the total for November being not less than $10,- COG, 900. It was feared by many few months ago that the loss of this year would reach $100, ,000, GOO, but it has now exceeded that amount with the contribution of another month, December, yet to hear from. The November fire loss was one third greater than the average for that month since 1872. Such a waste as this is saddening.

Some curious facts have come to light in
 St. Louis in connection with the crusade
 against oleomargarine. One of the leading
 restaurants in the city was visited and the
 discovery made that the substance used as
 butter was about three. fifths oleo. The dis
 covery was great surprise to the proprietor of the establishment, inasmuch as he always purchased his butter-or what he supposed ty good COWS, and to whom he paid an extra
 price to insure his getting the best genuine
 article. So great was his chagrin at the dis covery that he has given up all faith in hu- man nature. He is determined to have an analysis of the article used, and if the farmer l has been defrauding him he intends refusing

The new navy that has been started is very much needed. We have now in commission only twenty-two ships, all of wood, worthless for fighting purposes. Of these three are in the North Atlantic squadron, three in the South Atlantic, six in the Asiatic waters, seven in the Pacific and three in our Euro pean squadron. Beside these are five old vessels engaged in surveying or in the train ing squadron, and the new despatch boat, the Dolphin.

Projected Railroad Lines.

There have been a number of arti-
cles going the rounds Of the press re-
spectirg proposed trans-contincntal
railway, which is to traverse Idaho IN
such a manner as to pass through
Eagle Rock, the lower valley of Big
Lost River, Martin, Muldoon, Haley,
Crichton, Soldier and Boise City. This
proposed line is purported to be a
continuation CT the Chicago & North
western Railway, which is now being
constructed through Dakota and Wy
oming. That the Chicago & North
western Railway Company contem-
plates extending their line through to
the coast is not disputed. Just when
this road will reach Haley cannot be
ascertained at present, but us this
company is making good progress in
road building, and is very we'll fixed
financially, it may safely be predicted
that its Western trunk line will reach
Wood River sometime in the near
future.
a dvices from New York City arc
in effect that the Northern Pacific
Railway Company will have liue
surveyed early in the spring to tap
Butte, Montana, and to run from
thence over into the Salmon River
country and across to Wood River
with its terminus at HALEY. Such a
branch would be a valuable feeder tc
the Northern Pacific, as it would al
most control the freight business from
all of the Salmon River mining
camps, as well as those of the uppe
Wood River country.
If these two railroad lines were t.
be added to HALEY, with the Uniol
Pacific already here, who can predic
the future greatness of this city which
only FIVE years ago, was unknown
i'll fact, scarcel y contemplated.

About Relocating Claims.

Business has not been very brisk at
the Recorders Office since the 1st Of
January, Only Is claims have been
recorded, and but ono or two of these
are rclocations.
County Recorder Cannady says the
law in the matter of relocating claims
is in effect that the assessment work
must be done in order to hold claim
recorded in the preceding year; i. e. if
IA claim is not worked to the anount of
800 worth during the time specified
by law for doing said assessment
work, the claim reverts back to the
Government, and whether relocated CT
jumped, cannot be held unless the re-
quired amount of assessment work is
done thereon.

New School Opened.

The Wood River Select Boarding

Sailed for Winter.

Mr.. E. A. White, Superintendent
of the Alturas Water Company, has
placed large quantity of salt in aud
around every hydrant in this city to
prevent freezing in the valves and
pipes where they are exposed. A very
good preoaution, as without the city
water facilities the business portioa of
this place would be almost entirely at
the mercy of the flames, were fire
to originate in any of the Main street
blocks.

Aluminium Alloys.

From recent investigations it APP
pears that aluminium greatly increases
the strength of metals allowed with
it, With chrapened method OF
making such alloys, by means of ii new
electric furnace, Messrs. E. II. an 4
Fl. Cow!ey and G. F. Mabery have
added aluminium to copper in the pro-
portion of two or three per cent, and
obtained product which is stronger
than brass, and would serve as an ex
cnl!ent substitute for that metal. With
five per cent OF aluminium an ALLOW
was produced having tensile
strength equivalent to strain of GS,-
600 pounds to the square inch. The
addition of two or three per cent of
aluminium doubled the strength of
common brass; and a composition OF
copper, nickel, zinc, and a small per-
centage of aluminium, withstood a
strain of 100000 pounds to the square
inch, and has been named "Hercules
metal" Though very abundant
forming the base of common clay, al.
nmnium, either pure or in allows, has
been obtainable only by expensive
| processes.

derstand that | was not connected

Held for $500.

Last evening the case of Plat
Burr, charged with obtaining money
under false pretenses, was disposed OF
in Justice Lemmon's court. The ex-
animation has been in progress nearly
a week, and hard fight was fought
by Burr's attorneys to have him re-
leased on teehnicalites. The Dis
trict Attorney succeeded, however, in
getting Burr held under bonds of
$500, to await the action of the next
grand jury.

mines are made nearly every day, and
without any trouble or hindrance
whatever.

They Didn't All Get Drunk.

To THE EDITOR OF THE TINES:
In last evenings issue of the TINES
there was an article rejecting on the
Cotton Heavers. AS there were but
two members Of that organization
present at the social drunk, and as
there are some who took part in the
performance at the Theater, who do
not even drink, it seems unjust to
blame the Cotton Heavers for what
occurred on the n ght of the 18th.
Several parties have been placed in a
false position through the article in
question, and We therefore ask that
you publish this and set them right
before the public.
Yours, very respectfully,
