covered box which she held in her hand
and lay two odd-looking packs of cards on
the table, placing the box on the bureau
out of the way. A request to sit closer to
the table was complied with and she seated
herself opposite and shuffled both packs of
cards as a sort of introduction TO the cere-
mony. Subsequent experience showed
that these cards were made expressly for
the purpose. One pack once had white
backs, though this was difficult to believe
from their appearance. Their faces were
covered with small pictures of people, ami
mails, objects, scenes from life, about half
dozen pictures being on each card. On the
upper left hand corner was either club.
spade, heart or diamond, and on the right
hand corner was a letter of the alphabet,
followed by from one TO eight or ten dots
like periods. The other pack was entirely
different The backs were pink and the
faces white. In the center of the upper
half of the card was printed small play
ing card, as the ten of clubs. the ace of
hearts,

as star, the sun, house, or hill, an ami

These cards were numbered successfully,
and there were but thirty-six In the pack.
They were smaller than the other cards. and
We're the ones most used on account OF the
beautiful conglomeration Of symbolic
events which could be deduced from them.

This mixture of iattery and pleasant
prospects was kept up about ten minutes,
while she kept her hands busy with the
cards and examined the five selected from
the larger pack. She also laid out the whole
of the smaller pack face up in rows of
eight each. the last four being placed in the

BRIDGE APPROACHEs.
Protests From Property Holders 10
The Hoard of Public works.


the Board of Public Works.
A meeting of the board of public works
was held last evening to hear the protests
of property owners on Ducas street against
the fill at the end OF the Robert street bridge.
All the members of the board were present
and about twenty-five citizens interested in
the improvement. The meeting lasted from
7:3O to 10 o'clock and was an informal dis
cussion of the whole matter by the board
and by Messrs. Crosby brothers, Filter
STANLEY, Fenton, Carey and Melady, the
property owners. These property owners
argued in favor of an iron trestle-work i'll
stead of a FILL but President Barrett in
formed them that the board had no author
ity to consider a treStle work, as the
council had ordered a fill. S. b. Crosby,
speaking for the property owners, requested
the board to recommend TO the council
that a trestle work be built instead Of fill.
Mr. Barrett replied that he thought the
board was pretty generally of the opinion
that the fill was better than the trestle
work and would hardly recommend any
thing against their own judgment lie said
that the remedy should be sought before
the council, which had authority in the
matter They argued that a retainiI g wall
would be preferable to ill, as this would
leave the lots undisturbed, but this was
shown to be very expensive. although
estimates made by the city engineer and by
some of the property owners differed con-
siderably. In reply to the suggestion to
seek remedy in the council through the
West side alderman, Mr.. Crosby criticised
the action of Aid. Bryant in the matter.
He thought the council would pay no atten-
ton to protest, but would consider a
recommendation from the board of public
works. The board showed that fill would
be the cheapest way to improve the street.
as well as, in their opinion, better, but
failed to convince the DIRECTORS of that side
of the case. At 10 o'clock the meeting adj
journed without taking any action in the
matter

The Cnur d'Alenc mines are turn
ing out a great deal of money.
1t is reported that McFadden has
struck foot of good ore in the
Matte Bond on Smoky.
A sixteen-inch vein of ore, low
grade, has been struct in the Hig-
ginbottom on Muldoon.
The Silver Star is employing
eight men and getting into excel
lent shape for spring operations.
The King of the West is working
eight and the Isabella two men at
present. The Carrie Leonard crew
came out.
Between forty and fifty lessees
are working in Mayhower ground
at Bullion. They earn between 50
and $40 per man per day. The
company keeps, besides, about ten
men at work prospecting for ore
bodies.
The heaviest dividend paying
mine in the United States at pres
ent is the Calmut e Hecla of Mich
igan, a copper mine. For the last
ten months of 1885 it paid 81 POO
600. The Ontario, silver mine in
Utah, comes second with SS25,O00
during the same period.
Reliable information is received
from Little Smoky that James p.
! McCarter has struck twenty inches
of solid gray carbonates in the Tar
antus mine. This is a remarkable
showing and conclusive evidence
that Smoky contains rich minerals
in large bodies. At the time of the
strike three miners were ut work in
the ground.
The Parker mine shut down for
the winter last Monday owing to
the state of the snow blockade
resulting from the late storm. The
roads will be impossible for several
weeks and as the mine was out OF
wood and supplies, when the storm
set in, it was considered impractica-
bic to continue operations until the
roads are open, when the force will
be doubled and the proposed win
ter work finished before the sum
mer crew is put on.

After the Storm.

Less news of disaster has been
received since the storm than was
expected. In fact only few cases
of damage to property are reported
in the various camps tributary to
Ketchum, and no loss of life since
the fatal slides spoken OF in our
last issue.
Chas. Davis, merchant at Little
Smoky, James A. McFadden, dis
coverer of the Isabella, Thomas
Wilcox and John Hampton, and
part of the Carrie Leonard crew,
consisting of jim Baker, VIM.
Harris and Fred Bowers, reached
here by snow-shoc trail on Sunday
and Monday last, bringing the
news that no material damage had
been done in that locality. They
reported large numbers of snow
slides everywhere up there and that
the Carrie Leonard tunnel and a
portion of the clearinghouse were
covered up on the 23d ultimo. The
last three gentlemen named were
in the tunnel mt the time, but for
tunately beyond the reach of the
snow and in possession of ample
tools, with which they soon dug
out. Geo. Merrill's mine was COW
cred up the same day, but he was
equally fortunate in no great dam
age. The snow is seven feet deep
by actual measurement in and
about the camps of Little Smoky.
The party who came in made the
trip-twenty-fve miles-in one day.
Mails got through from Vienna
on Saturday, the 30th ultimo,
and several persons have since
arrived from there, among them {.
J. Johnson, superintendent of the
Vienna Mining & Milling Company,
and VIM. Stetscn, who went up last
week. Several snow slides occurred
on Vienna hill during the storm and
snow fell to a great dcpth--about
six feet. The only damage was
caused by slide that carried away
portions Of the works at the Vienna
mine, but not enough to seriously
effect operations. No one was hurt,

If there is any person who is
more troubled with hores than a
newspaper man, such an one should
be canonized, like Thomas A.
Bechet, within three year of his
death. Yesterday one of these
Bores, a big b, sat behind US as we
were racking cur brain to recall
some local items. He looked over
our shoulder as we wrote, and in a
fit of desperation we stopped in the
middle of an article on the "unpre-
cedented hard times" and wrote :
ave have a bouncing machine
ready to operate on the next man
who comes in and interrupts our
work for an hour or more in the
morning"
81 suppose you do have consid-
cradle trouble with such men," our
visitor complacently remarked.
Almost in a frenzy we again
sliced the pencil and wrote: We
are attempting to write locals, but
there is jackass looking over our
shoulder and constantly flaping
his ears disturbs our thoughts. "
With look Of injured innocence
the demon arose and muttered
something about having to see a
man up town. We do not wish him
any bad luck, but hope he will fall
down and step on himself if he ever
attemps to again invade our sane
tum.-EXchangc.
