see the elegant oil paintings that
adorn the walls. Nothing like them in
all the section roundabout.
Everybody is invited to the grand
opening of the Alturas Hotel o-night.
Tickets, admitting gentleman and
lady, including supper, $3.50. A
pleasant, unceremonious social party
is intended and desired, and all their
friends will be welcomed by the man
agement.
"You folks are we'll fixed who have
a we'll to drink from, for there is
dead animal in the ditch just above
town." said a gentleman, this fore
noon, as he rode in from the prairie
where he had been to bring in horse.
"Where ignorance is bliss tits folly"
etc. The water don't taste so we'll
now to- those who use it.

| The TIMES learns that active steps
to recommend and secure the APP
pointment as u, S, Marshal of Idaho

How does the gentleman, Mr.. B.,
stand-with or against the Jacks?
| L. E. Bristol, IAN old resident of Hal
ley, now placer miner on Snake
river, near Salmon Falls, is IN town.
He tells the TIMES that his claim and
those near him are all right, They

strength is algely on the side of the
latter. Medical News.
