other night at Charlie McCarthy's.
One young man, who was watching the
game, became SO deeply interested as
to who would make pool, that he for
got the weary world outside, and in a
moment of intense excitement braced
himself against large window frame
to Shout for his favorite player. He
suddenly disappeared and was seen no
more-until he was picked up on the
outside where he was found grasping
the rotundity of the earth, as it dashed
on through space at the rate of thous
and miles an hour.

An amusing scene was witnessed in
the Police Station yesterday afternoon,
when white man, native woman,
several native men and "steen" police
men marched up to the desk and all
commenced to talk at the same time,
driving Sam McKeague almost crazy.
The outcome was that the white man
was locked up on charge of dis
orderly conduct. The trouble was
caused by the white man and several
natives drinking and dancing in a
house back of the Queens Hospital,
disturbing the whole neighborhood.
They were asked to desist several times,
but refused to do so, and as last resort
the police were sent for. The native
woman, although not locked up, looked
as if she had been in a ten round slog-
ging match.

Yesterday morning about eight
o'clock Jim Dodd's watering cart was
driven in front Of Notes, where the
driver left his horses while he went in
side to buy some tobacco. While the
driver was gone the horses ran away
up Fort street, with the empty CART
Jim says the horses never think of
running away when the cart has five or
six tons of water in it. Everybody
got out of the way as the circus
passed; in this instance the show pre-
ceded Jim Sherwood's silver cornet
band, which followed block in the
rear, The two big cart horses I'M
doubleday thought they were going to a
fire, and consequently dashed past the
stable where everybody thought they
would stop. They continued up Fort
street until they reached the Chinese
church, when the weight of the big
cart began to tell on them and they
were stopped by one of the stable
men. Jim Sherwood reached the cor
ner of Fort and Beretania streets in
time to give a derisive blast on his fish
cornet as the horses were taken back
to the stable. No damage.

CGuR D'ALENE MINEs.-W. W. Spauld-
ing, of Portland gives the Oregonian the
following items from the C9ur d'Alene
mines: AT Wardner, on the South Fork,
the Sullivan mine is working three tun-
nels. Parties from Butte have put up a
concentration at cost of 100000, and are
reducing about sixty tons per day into less
than half that weight, which is then ship
ped 10 Butte at great expense. Across the
gulch the Bunker Hill claim is opening
out vein of good ore forty feet in width,
which runs from $50 to 81, zoo per ton in
silver and galena. A concentration is soon
to be erected on this lead, and several hun
dred tons of ore are already on the dump
Mr.. Spaulding visited Pine Creek, Evolu-
ton, Centerville, Nine Mile and other
points, and says there is good ore enough
in these places to keep smelling works run
ming for all time. Mining experts say that
the C9ur d'Alene mines are better than
Butte ever was, and their extent and rich
ness are settled beyond question.
