A superstitious subscriber who
found a spider in his paper wants to
know if it is considered bad omen.
Nothing of the kind, says the editor.

the columns of the paper to see what
merchant was not advertising, so that
it could spin its web across his store
door and be free from disturbance.
In Buena Vista, Colorado, there is
curious phenomenon during thunder
storms. The cooking stoves get SO
charged with electricity that it is i'm
possible, when the stoves are warm,

touching the vessels sharp shock is
felt and they stick to the stove SO as
to resist ordinary efforts to remove
them.

old, rough, pioneer life has passed
away and given place to an era of
distinction and wealth. Our public
men must be worthy to associate with
the intelligence and social standing
OF those who are from this time GER
tain to be with u.s." That editor must

Democratic clubs.
Judge Street yesterday afternoon
pronounced sentence on the man
Dunlap, fning hm 800 and i'm
prsoning him Ice days. The beastly

the entire british crowd who willingly
witnessed his base conduct should be
sent there with him.
There is story afoat that the Boise
ring are trying to set Shoup up to
knock him down after he has killed
off DUBOIS, and then they will be con-
tented to run things with an under
standing with John Haley, who is to
use his political influence to give them
a chance at the swag that attends the
location, ETC., of such public buildings
as John and the ring deem sufficient
to pay for their work.
The latest set afoat as true story,
according to the Post, is by General
Sherman, who said in the Esmond
Hotel in Portland that his "men when
marching through Georgia found
trees whose limbs were loaded with
petri6ed birds, all of which, at the
sight of his "men," began to chirp
and sing. If anybody but distin-
guished man had said that, it would
have been declared lie.
A Butte City man has discovered
and located a rich mine in bears
den. He stole in when Mr.. Bear and
family we're out berrying and stuck
up his stakes. He says he has Is
inches of 500-ounce ore, of which
5000 pounds, taken out by two men
in six days (deducting the time when
the bear family were at home, yielded
him a clear profit of 5000. Query:
What would he get if the family
should change home entirely?
At late hour last night sanguine
Republican leaned against the lamp
post near one of the TIMES office
windows, and these were the stanzas
he-slightly thick-tongned-repeated'
ly sang: a
Come all yeu Dragging Democrats,
Just listen to my song;
Give me your attention
And I'll not detsin You long.
| I've pretty little story
| And can tell IL very soon;
| It's how your darned old party's gone.
| Up in balloon!
| When we held the last election,
And you found you had the strings,
You ripped and tore You cussed ana swere
| And called us horrid things.
Not content with common epithets
| In your drunken reel and swagger,
| You called US thieves and scallawags
And nasty csrpetbagger
| .. Now you are up In balloon.
Presently he hiccoughed and left
murmuring "balloon, up in"
