earthquake such as has never before been
known in the history OF this city, swept
over Charleston last night shortly alter 10
O'Clock. causing more loss and injury to
property, and far more loss of life han

was by far the most severe. Its effect can
be judged by the experiences of Capt.
Dawson, of the Ne,os and Courier. who
lives in a massive brick residence in Bull
street, near hutledge street. Capt. Daw-
son was in his room on the second story
when the first shock occurred. The house
seemed to literally turn on its axis. The
first shock was followed by n second and a
third. less severe than the first. The air
was filled with cries and shrieks of women
and children. From every side of that
quiet ~neiehborhood came the cry: God
he'll, us, - God save us. "Oh. my God.
1t was worse than the worst battle Of the

When the first agony was over, IT was
found that the ceiling of every room in
the house was cracked, a big cistern was
broken apart, and a huge tank in the at
tic was pouring its food Of water into the
bedrooms. In the parlors, statues had
been wrenched from their bases and
thrown to the floor. In the hall a massive
lamp had actually been turned around.
In the front of the house was a large
porch with heavy pillars and solid marble
steps. All this was swept away as though
it had been off with a razor, and what was

Kohlepp returned from his tour
of inspection of the new county
road leading to the Germania Ba-
sin, on Tuesday, and left for HALEY
the following day. He reports the
work on the road as exceedingly
we'll done, and is good for i'm
mediate travel. That portion of
the road being built by Custer
county is rapidly nearing compile
ton, and will be finished by to-
day. Light wagons can now travel
the entire distance without trouble,
and when the work is done ore
hauling from the Basin to Ketchum
will commence. Superintendent
Bergman, of the Tyrolese mine, has
contracted for the shipment of a
large amount of ore, and other par
ties will take advantage of the new
road and make Ketchum their base
of supplies.

Shall We Have n lBa nd:

On last Monday four miners ar
rived from Bellevue seeking en-
ployment here in some of the
mines. All are competent musi-
clans and bring their instruments
with them. If they succeed in
securing work they will endeavor
TO form brass band here and fur
nish music whenever desired.
Taken with our home talent there
should be no trouble in organizing
band superior to anything known
on the River, and it is hoped the
new corners will succeed in finding
some employment that will induce
them to stay and carry out their
intention. They came from Butte
CITY to Bellevue a short time ago
and intended to make up band at
that place, but failing to find any
work, had to abandon the idea.
Kctchum has had the honor OF
having the best band in the Terri
tory, BUTT has become disorganized,
owing to the departure of several
members.

Our new Justice Of the Peace,
". E. Peck, was called to HALEY
on last Monday in an official ca
pacity. Not having an office in
that town, he opened Court at the
residence of E. e. Fleming and
announced himself ready for busi-
ness. The Clerk Of the Court
opened the docket and found but
one case on the records, and the
prisoners, Al. B. Roberts and Miss
Rosa T. Fairchilds, being presented
waived their right to a jury and
intimated that, although guilty,
they would be satisfied with a trial
before the court. His Honor, in a
feeling manner, addressed the cul-
prits upon the gravity of the situa.
ton in which he found them, and
giving them a full measure of good
advice, sentenced both for life-to
love, honor and obey the other
through this vale of tears. The
guilty couple received their SEN
tence with a great deal of humility
and promised never to do it agair
in consideration of the gallant
manner in which his Honor haC
mingled mercy with justice IL
passing sentence upon them.

that John A. Post had killed him
self with a shotgun. The report
seemed incredible, but investigation

gun was lying on the bed, with the
muzzle resting on and ex-
tending over the foot board, about

man in giving an account of the
matter says:
The shooting occurred in bed
room, Immediately back of the par.
lor. The blinds were down and the
room was quite dark. He fell at the
foot of the bed, and when discov
cred he was lying on his back with
his head inside a closet or ward
robe. The gun, Mrs. Post says
has been tor some days standing in
the closet at the foot Of the bed, and
it is supposed he took the CUR
out to clean it, and in laying il
across the foot of the bed thu
hammer became entangled with
the bed clothes, (the bed had not
yet been made) causing the gun tC
go off. This is very reasonable
theory. Besides making arrange
ments to 60 cunning, he had en-
gagged a team for the party at thu

At Galena. has now fifteen men at
work. The lower tunnel is now in

Three shifts are at work, mainly on

The vein is heavily mineralized,
carrying considerable iron, and
will average $50 ounces. The up
raise is being run to facilitate the
work of opening out the mine and
avoid the eighty-five feet hoist by
manual labor. 1t is expected to
make connection with the old
works on the opposite and north
side Of the hill in a few days. AS
soon as this is done prospecting
the vein in good earnest will be
commenced and ore taken out.
