PERSPECTIVE OF LIFE.

Life! Lifel What picture of strife!
When will its colors be blended?
n OF till Time with his artist hand
The lights and shadows has ended
Lo. the canvas is pure and white,
Not shaoow rests on its dawning;
But deep and dark are the pencil st. okes
Ere life has passed its morning
o! artist Time, with thy pencil of light
And darkness strangely blending,
Why these shadows, black as night,
No beauty to the picture lending?
The answer comes from the voice of Time.
Sin robs the canvas Of beauty
Good deeds only marks the pencil of light,
Deeds full of love and duty.

CAssIA COUNTY TIMES: Now that
the weather is so ALFRED hot some
body ought to bottle up some of the
air and put in few of the Snake riv-
er mosquitoes and keep it till next
winter for pepper sauce. It's good
scheme. IA disastrous fire broke
out in Pocatello last Monday which
devoured a boarding house, leaving
some forty or fifty poor people home
less. Besides the damage to private
citizens, the railroad company sus-
tanned considerable loss.

THERE is prospect of sale being
made of eight claims on the Atlanta
lode. In fact the sale is about made,
to a wealthy company of Glasgow,
Scotland. These claims have all been
bonded to Stamps Anderson and
Prof. McChesney. The claims bond
ed are the Buffalo and all claims
west, except $40 feet. They are as
follows, running west in regular or
der, with the number of feet Of each:
Buffalo company's, 500, Simmons,
200: Prickett & Preston s, 500; Ed.
FuImcr's, 100; Hill & Turner's, 205;
Simmons, 200; Huston & Gray's, 200.
Then comes $40 feet, owned by Julian
Hill and Ben T. Davis, not bonded.
The Yuba company's ground comes
next-4,000 or 5000 feet-included
in the bond. The claim of Julian
Hill and Ruff Turner-205 feet-was
bonded for $50 per foot, two-thirds to
be taken in stocks of the company.
Fulmer's was bonded for the same,
and on the same terms. The Scotch
company spoken of organized with a
working capital of 100000. This
company, if they buy, propose to ex-
tend tunnel from the Buffalo claim
west to meet one to be run east from
the west end of the Yuba claim. The
Yuba was tapped several years age
with tunnel run in l, 400 feet. AT.
ter tapping the ledge drift was rur
east hundred or two hundred feet
The ledge, tapped eight hundred fee
deep, is several feet wide, carrying
low-grade ore. If this sale is made
mining will be carried on at Atlant;
on far grander scale than ever be
fore, and that will be the llvelies
quartz camp in Idaho. Most Of thu
ground west of the Buffalo company
claim is undeveloped, or but little
developed.

STATESMAN: Jos. Bowers, who lives
about ten miles south of town, had
the misfortune about two weeks ago
of sustaining a very painful injury
while lassoing a yearling calf. He
had succeeded in 'roping" the ami
NAL, but got his left hand tangled in
the rope, which took ''half-hitch
over each of his little fingers. He
was dragged from his horse, the rope
severing the little finger at the first
joint, and by the middle finger drag
ged him over about thirty rods OF
ground, when he succeeded in grasp
ing the rope with his right hand, and
stopping the animal. w. G. Brown
of California, is in the city visiting
his brother Jonas w. Brown. Mr.
Brown is accompanied by his wife
and they are on their way home from
the east.

LIVING quietly at Haley, Idaho,
remarks the Salt Lake Tribune, is a
man, now growing old, who has a
record which ought to cause his name
to be written in letters of gold. We
mean Captain Joseph Bury. So reti-
cent and self-contained is he that no
one who meets him has any idea of
what he has done. His own partner,
who has been with him long time,
had no idea of the truth until it was
brought out by an accidental CONVEX
sation with a brother soldier Of the
Grand Army. The facts are briefly
as follows: When the war broke out
this man was pursuing a quiet little
business in a California town. He
closed it out and returned to his ma
tive home in Ohio, where he went to
work, and of his own money spent
$4,000 in organizing regiment. He
was made Second Lieutenant, and
went to the war. For distinguished
services he was promoted first to a
First Lieutenancy and later he was
made Captain. He served until the
war was over, and then sank back in
to the walks of peace, in which he
has pursued his way since without
making sign. But on his papers Of
final discharge the following remark.
able Endorsement was, on the day Of
his discharge, written by his com
handing officer: "This officer ha:
not been absent from his command {
day during this entire war" We
think, of all the heroes of the war
not one can produce a finer record
He gave up his business, travelled five
thousand miles to get to a plac,
where he could enlist, went into tn,
war and never missed roll-call TO
four years. All ordinary men shoulc
take off their hats when they NEE

IDAHO COUNTY FREE Press: Mr..
Weller tells us that an old man NAM
ed Lane, who claims to have been
one of the discoveries of the Elk city
diggings, arrived at Elk while he was
there, having walked all the way
from Montana in thirteen days. He
lost the trail at the Little Salmon and
got we'll down into the Clearwater
basin before he found himself He
lived for several days on huckleberry
leaves and got into camp with only
one cartridge left. Another man had
his camp raided up in the Bitter Root
by bear one night and had to tramp
back to Elk, going hungry all the
way, for more grub. Such are some
of the vicissitudes of life in the
mountains of the far west. -. A
chapter of accidents occurred to a
party of three Chinese engaged in
working on the head of Pioneer gulch
eighteen miles from Elk city last
Monday. The celestials were camp
ed in tent pitched in the timber
when falling tree struck their camp,
killing one of them outright, breaking
the arm of second and fracturine
the leg of third. The deadster was
buried on the spot and the others
were brought to Elk where they are
being attended to.

ROBBED AGAIN.-The Boise City
and Basin stage, bound for the former
place, was stopped again last Monday
on the grade this side of the Halfway
House, and short distance this side
of the point where the robber took
his stand few days before. Leroy
Thomas was the driver this time who
was ordered to halt. He obeyed the
command. The roboer then demand
ed the express box, and 1t was thrown
drive on, and he did-made good
time to the Halfway House, and soon
returned to the scene of the robbery
with George Dunnigan and another
man. There was one passenger on
board-a drummer. The box con-
tanned between $500 and $400 which
the drummer had Intrusted to the
watchful care of the Pacific Express
company. The money was doomed
to fail to reach the firm for which the
drummer was drumming; but the Ex-
press company will have to make
good the loss. The robber, the first
time, didn't get pay for his pains and
daring, as the box contained only the
insignificant sum of $50. He has
imbibed the spirit and essence of the
aged motto, "If at first you don't sue
coed, try, try, again" and he profited
thereby. Last Monday, as on the
previous occasion, the persevering
stage stopper was hid away behind a
little rock and brush fort, and the
driver didn't get sight of him. The
bold road agent talked in a good
strong voice, and very distinctly, and
without any apparent attempt to dis
guise the music of his vocal organs
He opened the box this time by the
side of the road. The robber was
tracked up Daggett creek distance
Of eight miles by sheriff Wilson, O
Ada county, and sheriff German, O.
this county, and number of others
They had positive proof that they hac

they found the express company

BELLEVUE HERALD: In answer to
correspondent who writes to ascer-
tain the truth about certain rumors,
we must reply: "No; Pat Furey
is not an engineer. He took walk
up to the Minnie Moore yesterday to
see the frozen up steam gauge, and
when Tingley pointed it out to Pat,
he mistook the language used, and
Immediately set his watch with the
steam gauge, and has since boasted
of what queer clocks those mining
engineers use, anyhow This is all
we know about the case.". We

gagged at work in her garden at
Stanton, in the valley below Bellevue.

Clay county, one of Dakotas choicest
hog breeding and hog fattening Sec
tions, Is this winter shipping corn to
the eastern market. This is new ex.
perience for our next door neighbors. In
the years of the past their corn has gone
to the market with its value greatly in
creased. 1t has been made into pork.
A Clay county capitalist tells
us that the farmers of bis county last
year lost 100000 worth of hogs from
cholera and that they have concluded to
cease hog growing for couple
of years, hoping thereby that
the disease will run itself out. All the
alleged remedies for the hog scourge
nave been tried in Clay county, but
without general success. There are
instances in which the cholera has been
checked and finally exterminated IN in.
divldual herds, but these experience 90
are the exception. So the corn of Clay
county goes to the eastern market,
usually at small margin to the pro-
ducer. The experience of Clay county
is duplicated in Union county and the
prediction is that IN its westward move.
ment the scourge will eventually pass
through all the hog growing counties OF
southern Dakota and northern Nebraska
and will wear itself out before it will
cease its devastating work.

Governor pierce's New Book,

Estelline Bell: Gov. Pierce has sent
us copy of his report to the secretary
of the interior. The governor never
forgets us in an emergency of this kind.
He seems to take Grslt interest in US
Whenever he has any superhuous litera-
ture lying around he always sends it
right along. But then it. don't cost him
anything as he uses an interior envelope
with notice picketed up in one corner
warning people to keep off the grass,
or words to that effect.
We always like to get these reports,
we feel that the interior departmeu
takes ali interest in us after all. The
world may seem cold and gloomy and
dyspeptic but we know there is warm
spot for US in the department of the
interior.
This particular report seems to be
very interesting. The governor has
evidently treed a good many hard facts
Some of them were probably never in
captivity before and he must have had
q tongh time chasing around and get.
ting them to roost just where he wanted
them to. But he has got them together
at last, and the number of eggs laid
in Mountraville county nestles
right mp against the man
nfaoturing establishments of
Cavalier county. ii must have taken
Public Printer Rounds all day to set up
some of the tables even if he rubbed
chalk on his fingers and borrowed an
extra chew of tobacco from the editor.
We're glad the report is out anyhow
We may have hard winter and the
price of wheat may go down but as long
as we know how many gallons of milk
were produced in Bottineau county
| we'll try and appear cheerful before
company.
