LIGHTNING CHANGEs.-The singular
rapidity with which the weather hops
itself about in these latitudes is sufficient
to shake the faith of the oldest inhabi-
tant. Last Friday night there was glo-
rious moonlight. Saturday was clear
and cold. Saturday night and Sun day
morning threatened snow but the sun
went down in a clear sky, while up on
the timber line in the foothills there
were heavy cloud mists forming whose
moisture CONCEALED on the trees, the
arctic element presenting a beautiful
picture. We are liable to have an inch
of snow before morning, and then again
we are just as liable to have a warm
chinook wind which will send the mer-
curry bubbling up among the forty's.
You can't most always sometimes just
tell what weather we will have in this
country, and the wise man is he who
never predicts.

MORE QUARrz.-The annual fall excite
ment over quartz discoveries on Salmon
river has set in on the prairie. The
location Of the new leads is on the
breaks of the Salmon, short distance
above Amos Carver's ranch, and they
were discovered few days ago by a
party of prospectors named Sutherland,
Mcfarland and Benner, while on their
way out from Alton district From the
small specimens they brought out to
show us we judge the ledge to be COM
posed of free-gold quartz, containing
some copper and much iron. 1t is a
honey-combed, oxydised rock. and
looks better than any We have ever
seen from this end of the river. The
country-rock in the vicnage of the find
is lime and slate, a likely formation for
good quartz when not situated too near
the basalt. There is nothing in sight
TO Justify any excitement. Mcfarland
and Benner bought big bill of goods
here and left Sunday for the Little
Salmon. where they will make their
winter camp, hunting principally, and
prospecting the ledge between whiles.
Sutherland, who accompanied them
out, is the hero of the late lamented
Yellow Pine excitement and the same
old Bill Sutherland with whom we used
to splice blankets in the earliest days
of the Ceur d'Alene stampede Bill
was the dscoverer of the "Sunset"
lode at Carbon center. one of the bon
anza mines of the great northern camp,
and he left Saturday to look after his
interests there. All the boys are salts
fed with the showing made by the
Alton mines that that district has a
great future before it.
