STRUCK HIM TWO BLOWS

Angus and Hugh Cannon came up
and, with Frank Cannon, endeavored
to hold Mr.. Dickson while Hughes
beat him. In the scuflle one of them
was pushed against window, and
the crash brought a crowd quickly to
the scene. Judge Powers, Major
Erb, Judge Carleton and others were
the first to arrive. Major Erb at
tempted to sieze Hughes by the
throat and received a blow across the
back of the hand, evidently with
some weapon, judging by its effects.
Hughes and Hugh Cannon then ran
off, one of them hurting back stone
which crashed through one of the no.

Frank Cannon

And, shaking him as he would a

him. Cannon refused to give the

placed Frank Cannon under arrest,
while at the same time Major Erb
took charge of Angus Cannon.

exclaimed Frank savagely, as he was
taken off.
Policeman Smith came up at that
moment and Judge Powers informed
him he was peace-officer and had
placed Frank Canon under arrest.
He then turned Cannon over to Smith
to hold while he arrested Angus.
Smith
SLIPPED FRANK OUT OF THE CROWD
And took him to the City Hall, thus
taking him out of the hands of the

THE LUCKY BAR PLACERS.

Means.
The meeting of owners of placer
claims on Lucky Bar, near Glenn's
Ferry. which was called for last eve-
ming, in the HALEY Land Office, was
formally organized at 8 o'clock, J. S.
Waters being elected Chairman and
I. e. Picotte Secretary.
There were present: John Movers,
J. A. Edie, E. A. White, Geo. w.
Taylor, L. G. Bailey, Rev. I. T. Os-
born, S. P. Miles, J. w. Burns, Pierce
Dorgan, Captain Hammer, E. b.
True, M. N. Miles, and Frank CARR
son.
Captain Hammer reported that he
had examined the Lucky Bar region
thoroughly, and had even made an
imperfect preliminary survey. At a
point in the river were small falls
which could be utilized for power, by
means OF a turbine wheel, and some
OF the ground thus covered. But by
using steam the water of the river
could, if raised IS or 40 feet, be util-
lied to wash two thirds of an area of
over 900 acres of good, rich placers;
and 40 feet more of raise would
bring water onto all of the bars from
the initial point of the ditch to within
three fourths of mile of Glenn's
Ferry. The ground, in places, sloped
from the bank toward the interior:
back of the claims nearest the river
was ridge beyond which was a small
valley, the lowest point in which was
IS feet lower than the banks. There
are fine natural roads to the claims,
except one mile, through a sand
drift. From the highest bluff of the
valley above mentioned to the river,
there is steep grade and total fall of
IS feet.
The low falls above referred to are
situated about six miles from the
claims. BY raising the water $50
feet all these miles of ground could
be covered and washed. 1t being
impossible to take out an open ditch,
it would be necessary to use IL to "a
inch iron pipe Of the best quallty-of
which about 100000 feet would be
required. This would be expensive
how expensive he could not state,
but the resulting power could be used
on a very large scale.
E. A. White wanted to begin with
one machine or burlap, to test the
property, and if it proved as valuable
as we all expected, there would be
no trouble in raising funds to secure
all the power wanted.
After further discussion E. B. True,
E. A. White, S. p. Miles, Pierce Dor
gan, J. A. Edie, and M. n. Miles
were appointed committee to look
into the matter in all its bearings, and
submit plan of operations, together
with estimates of cost of erecting and
operating a plant of 200 to 500 Cali

Inmates to be submitted for 200, 800,

through the TIMES.
Mr.. True then wanted a special
committee on dump appointed, as
that was most important. But this
subject was referred to the committee
already appointed.
A rough draft of the ground hav.
ing been made and submitted by
Judge Waters, the meeting ad-
| iourned.

The Trustees are unwilling to as

voters instruct them to proceed they
will do so. If otherwise, otherwise.
But they have no choice whatever. 1t

Long since was reaped for others garnering;

Brushing aud CombIng the Scalp.

a prevalent idea is that which asserts
that frequent brushing and stimulation
of the scalp with hard brush is the
proper treatment of the hair. Nothing
is more contrary to scientific experience
and fact. All authorities on the treat
ment Of the skin and hair agree in saying
that the use of the hard brush, as too
commonly used, is destructive to the
hairs. The skin is irritated by hard
brushing. The hairs are broken and
bruised by such treatment, and the idea
that scurf is removed by this practice is
delusive, for scurf forms faster than be-
fore. The hairbrush therefore, should
be soft. DIR. Pincus says: ITO work away
at the head, to smooth naturally curly
hair, or, as is sometimes intended, to
curl smooth hair, or TO remove all the
scurf from the head, is very perni-
cious" The ordinary hairbrush, of soft
texture. is as good brush as one need
use. The bristles should not be set too
closely or be too stiff in texture. The
wire brushes in use are also useful.
Their excellence is derived from the same
conditions which make an ordinary soft,
plant, hairbrush pleasant to use.-Her-
aid of Health.

The editor of the Lima (0.) Gazette sizes
up our tender-hearted administration in the
following:
The fact that Gen. Grant telegraphed 4
present of $1,000 TO the Chicago sufferer,
and authorized the secretary of war to issue
ratiOns, tents and blankets by the thousands
as soon as he received news of the fire, is
being contrasted to President Cleveland's
apparent Indifference in regard to the earth
quake sufferers at Charleston. We have
inside information, however. that Lamont
was authorized. during the worst shaking
in Charleston, TO tender the distracted citi-
zens the loan of the presidents veto, with
the assurance that if was something that
could not be shaken. The president has
also authorized the president to forward to
Charleston advance copies of his message
early in December.

A most sensible and practical exposition
lea is that which is illustrated in the neat,
tasteful and brilliant display made by our
local tradesmen of their goods. Displays of
this sort can be made as attractive, in the
stores, as those arranged by merchants at
county fairs or public expositions, and when
made in their places of business those whose
attention is called to them are brought
within the tradesmen's reach. Merchants,
who have paid out money for goods, should
give the public an opportunity of seeing
what they have. Very often people wish
certain things but do not know where they
can fiRd them. and again. discover articles
on exhibition that please their fancy, which
they would not thought of buying in other
circumstances. The display of goods is a
cheap method of advertising. This. with
prominent and attractive announcements in
the leading local newspapers, is stimulating
to trade.
