Thursday, set apart as a day OF
thanksgiving and praise in accord
ance with time-honored custom
OF our people, was in this vicinity
a perfect day. A cloudless sky
and a bright warm sun overhead
all the day long gave to the atmos-
phere a spring-like temperature
while the crisp snow on the ground
afforded amusement to the many
indulging in sleigh riding, while
others, aking advantage of the
genial wather, repaired to the skat-
nls pod near the Harper residence
anu thoroughly enjoyed themselves
III TINS celebrating exercise. While
business was not thoroughly sls-
pended, the closing of the banks
ana the number of people on the
streets gave to the town somewhat

coded her there some weeks ago.
During the summer months Pink

able estate had been left by the
death of a relative. 1t was ascer-
tanned that Flager was the true
heir and he and the officer returned
to Canada where Flager came into
possession of his property and no"
holds a government position. Mr.
Flager came to Galena about year
ago from Boise City to work In

The King of the West mine IN
Smoky district, has been bonded
to Messrs. Haggin 4 Tevis, the well
known California mining operators,
for thirty days and will without
doubt, before the expiration of the
bond, be purchased by them. The
mine is owned by George Black,
George Montgomery, Elias Falk
and J. Woodward, and during
the past season made fine record
for itself as an ore producer. The
above parties purchased the mine
in the fall of 1885 and the steady
improvement it made from the time
they became the owners attracted
the attention of capitalists seeking
investment Of that nature and final
w resulted in the sale of the prop
erty. The purchase of the KING OF
the West mine means a good deal
to Smoky and naturally Ketchum
will enjoy part of the benefits to
be derived. There are other valua-
bic properties in that district and
the fact that so prominent a firm as
Haggin d Tevis purchasing mines
there will lead other capitalists to
seek like investments, while. should
the venture made in the King OF
the West prove remunerative, other
mines there will doubtless be pur-
chased by Haggin g. Teyis. 1t was
current on the street, Thursday
that negotiations were already pend
ing looking to the purchase OF an
other mine in Smoky by the same
parties, but nothing definite could
be ascertained regarding the cor
rectness of the report. The sale o.
the King of the West mine by the
present owners is one of the mos
important transactions in mining
affairs that has taken place here iol
some time. 1t is also satisfactory
to know that the parties selling The
mine 90 not propose to discontinue
operations in this vicinity. Ali o
them are interested in other prop
critics which they propose to work
and that they may yet strike yer
liable bonanza will be the wors
that their many friends wish them

DR.. A. C.. Lewis returned from
Smoky, Monday night, where ne
had been called to attend q miner
named Emanuel Weare. Some days
ago Weare, who is employed in the
Silver Star mine, met with fright
full accident while at work. A giant
powder cartridge had been exploded
and Weare, after the smoke had
cleared away, proceeded to work.
He discovered that a small portion
of the cartridge still remained III
the rock where it had been set, and
not wanting to work around it COM
menced removing the same with
the point of his pick, just as has
been done often before, and hardly
had he touched it with the pick
before the remnant of the cartridge
exploded, throwing a lot of fine
rock directly in his face. tearing
out the right eye and badly injuring
the other. 1t is thought that the
accident will result in the total
blindness of the unfortunate man.
Weare is an old miner and came
here from Candelaria, New, where
he is we'll known. DIR. Lewis went
to Smoky and returned over the
Warm Spring road and reports con-
siderable snow on the summit, yet
the back trains were still at work.
On Tuesday Weave was brought
into town and left for Salt Lake
city the following day, where he
goes for medical treatment.
