Relic Of the Mighty Snake.


A curiosity in the shape Of human skull,
accompanied by. a note enclosed in small
phial which were found some time ago lodged
on an island near Starrhs Ferry, was sent to
this Office last week by Mr.. Starrh, as relic
of the mighty Snake river. The note reads
as follows;
March 4, 1884. Fishing at American Falls.
Boat turned over and Jake drowned. Snow
ing and am 50 cold can hardly write.
The note Was not signed, and it is impossi-
bic to obtain any clue as to the author. 1t is
the supposition, however, that the writer was
one Of the party Of fishermen supposed to
have been drowned at American Falls, about
two years ago, and was too cold to finish the
note. Were all the calamities which have &C.
CURED on Snake river recorded. a connecting
link 10 the mysterious disappearance Of many
people in this country might be accounted for.
It is common thing at this season of the
year to see dead bodies Of men and beasts
floating down the raging tide, bounding over
the rugged rapids, until the great Shoshone
Falls are reached, where the mighty leap into
the oblivious whirlpool forever obliterates all
trace of body and soul.--Cassia County
Times.

money the old reliable house

Another suit was tried in Justice Cal
ioways coar, last Wednesday. Charlie, 4
Chinaman, was arrested, charged with giving
las Kimsey's little boy number Of croton
beans, which, il eaten to any extent, are a
deadly poison. On arriving home, the boy
sampled them, as did also his mother and
sam Ball. but, as they are far from palatable,
only just tasted Them. This, in all probable
ity, saved their lives, although It made them
deathly sick for some time. AT the trial the
Chinaman testified that he did not give them
to the boy, as they belonged TO Chinese doc
tor, but that the boy took them without his
knowledge, probably thinking they were nuts
and good to eat. He asserted that several
boys were in the habit Of entering his shop
and picking up things, and that he did not
notice them this time. As there was no testi-
mony to prove otherwise, he was released. 1t
is safe to say that hereafter the small boys
will give his shop a wide berth, and that the
burning taste to examine and sample Chinese
nuts and other bric-a.brac has received a mo-
mentary setback in Caldwell. There isnoth-
ing intensely humorous in croton beans ex-
cept to people who do not indulge in them

Undigested Food

In the stomach develops acid which stings the
upper part the throat and palate, causing heart
burn" It also evolves a gas which produces 'wind
on the stomsch,n and feeling and appearance of
distension in that organ after eating. For both
this acldity and swelling, Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers is a much better remedy than alkaline salts,
like harlshorn and carbonate of sods. A wine
gassful OF the biters, after or before dinner, Will
be found TO act reliable carminatiye or proven
tive. This fine specific for dyspepsia, both in Its
acute and chronic form, also prevents and cures
maarial fever, constipation, liver complaint, kid
ney troubles, nervousness and debility. Persons
who observe in themselves decline of vigori
should use this fine tonic without delay.

4 Branch OF business In Which tIte Profits
Are Uncertain.
There is no article of commerce
that vafics more widely in its market
price than whalebone," said a New
York dealer to a reporter recently. "In
January it may sell for two dollars
pound and in the following June for
five dollars a pound. Twenty-Five
years ago the price was seventy-iiye
cents pound. Il varies in price ac-
cording TO the catch, and this in turn
depends upon the luck of the sailors
II they find the cling grounds closed
by ice, meet with a shipwreck, or for
any reason fail to catch whales tho
price goes up. This makes It a very
speculative business and we can never
tell what our stock is worth until wa
hear Of the catch"
'What part does whalebone chiefly
come from?"
1.-The main supply is brought from
the North Pacific whalcrs and comes IN.
in November. A smaller quantit.'
comes from the South Sea and arrives
about June. Now and then a small
supply comes from Davis Straits
and Hudson Bay. Whales ara
caught there at all seasons OF the
year, and the bone coming 10 New
York is apt TO disturb the price.
Many years ago it was the custom Of
whaling captains, when out Of stores
to stop al some Pacific port and ex-
change some OF their whale bone for
the necessary supplies and in this way
smaller lots would come in and trouble
the market. Ships arc now so thor
oughly supplied that there is no longer
any need Of continuing this practice
The supply comes from New Bedford
and San Francisco. which arc the great
whaling points of this country. A.
great amount used TO come from Nam
tucket, but the shallowness of its har-
Dor and the greater convenience of
New Bedford dro~e its trade away.
On board ship the 81 .ps OF whalebone,
as they are termed 10 mercantile
phrase, arc done up IN bundles OF
about two hundred pounds each, and
are sent TO the market in that shape
In cutting up whalcbone there is loss
of about twenty per cent on the raw
material. The hair is worth ten cents
pound for mixing with horsc-hair for
upholstering purposes. and II Is some-
times used IN the manufacture %
brushes. '-8i0ssoH Record
