PsosPECToRs of late have been TAX
ing up and working old locations,
we'll knowing that MANY quartz
veins that would not pay expenses
of working fifteen or twenty years
ago can now be made to give fair
returns above all expenses. The old
locations, abandoned many years
ago, that now give promise of soon
being classed as permanent mines,
are those now being worked in
Lewis gulch; the Cleveland, in
Gambrinus district, ore from which
was recently crushed by the Forest
King mill. The location near Grimes
creek, owned by J. w. Pharriss and
Charley Cooper, and which they are
now developing, will no doubt pay
This is the first work that has been
done on it for twenty years. The
present owners will soon tap the weir
in new place, at the depth of forty
feet.

JACK BOWERS, one of the mine
owners of Sheep Mountain, passed
through here last week on his way to
Boise valley. He will return in two
or three weeks. Mr.. Bowers saws
Baldwin & Bell lost their suit, which
went through the district court at
Challis. The suit was to decide the
ownership of a rich pay chute on a
vein on which Baldwin & Bell had
made locations. This chute was To-
Gated by Baldwin & Bell, and was
six or seven hundred feet from their
original locations. Other parties To-
Gated this ground, claiming that Bald
win & Bell were entitled to only one
claim each on the vein, and these
parties now hold the ground on the
strength of a legal decision of the
court. Baldwin & Bell have made a
new discovery this season, and have
put seven or eight men at work de-
veloping it. They expect to make 8
shipment this summer or the coming
fall. They had five tons of ore ou
when Mr.. Bowers left. Mr.. Bower.
expects to ship ore from his location
this season.

News MINER: Wednesday night

News MINER: Wednesday night
young man stopping at Baxter's
hotel in ketchum while sound asleep
jumped through one Of the windows,
out upon the roof of an adjoining
building-the bank-and thence to
the piazza roof. The window was
down, and he took the lower sash
clean out in his mad Jump. Baxter
woke him Up as he reached the roof
of the piazza. The young man the
next morning, in explanation, stated
that he was all the time under the lm-
preston that he was in a burning
brick hotel, and was doing his best
to get out. He escaped without any
serious injury, but it is singular that
he did not get his body cut up fore
ing his way through the window.
esterday dad" Freeman took a
little party from Ketchum out on a
picnic. There were two boys in the
party, with guns. One of them fired
at Il grouse, and one shot hit Freeman
in the eye, one in the arm, and anoth-
err IN the leg. DIR. Mckay thinks he
will lose the sight of the eye. a
young lady in the party also received
shot in the left cheek.

A SUNsHINY SoUL.-There are some
people who are always bubbling over
with humor, in season and out of sea-
son; everything is turned by their
Midas touch to sparkling merriment.
What unconscious physicians these
people are! 1t doeth one good like
midicine to hear their voices and to
see their faces, always running over
with laughter like a mountain spring.
The healthiest and longest-lived per
sons almost always have a twig of
humor in their makeup. There is
something wonderfully preservative
in laughter A man who cannot
laugh is like a tree from which the
worms or the winds have stripped all
the leaves. 1t soon grows feeble and
sapless, and dies before it's time. The
healthy tree laughs with its myriads
OF leaves for generations, sound at
heart and beautiful to look upon:
and when it dies the woodman cuts it
down and finds the allotted number
of rings in the firm, white wood and
core as sound and sweet as the sap
ling's. So it is with the man whose
disposition is one of sunshine and
laughter. He lives merrily and dies
cheerily, and the world is better for
him. His memory does not pass away
like that of the sour, grum misan-
thropist. There may be grander
things about a man than his humor.
but there is nothing by which he will
be remembered SO long. After his
learning are forgotten, is he ever laugh
ed, that laugh will be his memorial.
1t will GO ringing on when every
other utterance has died away. Hap
Ply are they who are happy Chica-
go Mail.

WE are informed, but the infor-
nation is not direct, that the Boise
City Assay office no longer pays the
same price for gold dust and gold
bullion that is paid in the East. By
the payment by the BOISE City office
Of the same price that is paid in the
East, express charges were saved.
We are informed that the express
charges amount to 1885 per $1,000.
If our information is correct, miners
can do as well by selling their dust
and bullion at the Boise CITY Assay
office as they can by shipping it East
but no better, the rates now paid by
said office being the same as Eastern
rates with express charges to the East
added. Our informant considers his
information reliable. We expect tc
hear from the Superintendent of the
Boise City Assay Office direct before
our next issue.

YESTERDAY was Chinese big day,
and very noisy day. They say it
Is sale same Mclean mans Fourth
july" The brown brigade paraded
the streets yesterday to the music of
drums, gongs and other instruments
of torture that give forth sounds to
inspire the savage breast, and civili-
lied as well, to deeds of the assault and
battery kind, with generalization and
malice aforethought and intent to do
great bodily harm. This procession was
almost as far from being recherche as
the Fourth of July T. T. turnout.
The Mongolians carried banners, dark
maroon and light yellow in color,
with Chinese hieroglyphics, and drag
ons, eels, snakes and other handsome
animals and reptiles embellished the
banners. The squad that brought up
the rear had roast hog on table, whole
and belly down, looking natural as
life, all but being minus hair. Other
tables were loaded with dishes of rice
dough balls, etc.

THIRTY EIGHT tons of ore from the
Cleveland mine, in Gambrinus dis
trict, have been put through the For
est King mill. A cleanup was made
Sunday. Patrick Moriarty, who was
down from the Forest King yesterday,
estimated the cleanup at $4,000.
The gold was not retorted, but a
close estimate can be made on the
weight of the amalgum. The ore
went a little over $50 per ton, if the
estimate is correct, and it will not
miss it much either way. That is
rich ore.

WALT. GALBREAITH came in few
days ago from Rabbit creek. He
will return to-day. Walt. and Con-
rad Haag own a recently discovered
vein of quartz over there, and are de-
veloping it. They are now running
cut and are down about twelve feet.
The vein is narrow, but carries rich
ore. Walt. uncovered the vein the
other day twenty or thirty yards from
the discovery hole, and there it is ev-
en- better than where first discovered.
The ore carries both gold and silver,
the former predominating. Walt.
brought in number of specimens
that were pretty freely speckled with
gold, and literally sprinkled with
silver. He says the vein is nc thick
er than knife blade in places, and
at the widest is six inches 1t is an
encouraging prospect, but the owners
are not excitable, and say they really
have nothing yet to blow about, or on
which to build big expectations
With the limited amount of develop
ment that has been done, it is entjtl-
ed to the distinction of being called
a very promising prospect.

EPH. LUCAS, of Boise valley, was in
bMrstown last week with vegetables. Mr..
-, Lucas brought up human skull that
VIHwas found in an alley in Boise City.
Nils He gave it to Adolph Feyhl. Some
who have seen it say it is the skull of
awhile man, others that it is China
mans, while others basing their opin-
IS. ion on the thickness of the skull,
|ntircontend that it was the personal prop
erty OF darkey. There is a mystery
connected with this dry and vacant
bone-house, many years ago the
S, abiding place of the intellectual fac
IDLEuities of human being. The origin.
al owner no doubt mysteriously disap-
/ peared, and was foully dealt with.
|nds' The skull is as dry as an old powder

be years have passed since the intellect,
great or small, or medium, that bios
'ii' soDed in its interior, took its fight to
the realms of the great unknown.

NEW YORK, June 10.-The reduction a

TO certain extent merely nominal. The
market to-day shows little evidence Of q
concerted action among the bull leaders, and
was strong or weak, active or dull, in differ
ent spots. Toward noon the market be-
came dull, and remained comparatively
steady until late In the afternoon, when q
small rally took place, New York Central
being conspicuously strong at this time.
This was followed In turn by dull and
heavy tone, lasting until the end Of busi-
ness, although final prices were q shade
better than the lowest figure reached, the
market closing steady. Almost everything
is lower tonight The opinion on the street
tonight ia that lower prices may be ex-
pected In the near future, as the influences
which advanced values have been pretty
well discounted.
