sectional feeling, and a united and prosperous
nation joins in keeping green the graves of all
its beloved dead. 1t is in this spirit that the

romance, peculiarly appropriate to this ma

He Was Drowned.

Last evening, about 8 o'clock, Cor
oner Brown was notified of the find-
ing of Reckard's body in Wood Riv-
er, at the mouth of the town ditch.
It appears that Tom Misener, P.
R. Poole of Bellevue and Martin B.
Shugart were at the mouth OF the
ditch last evening about 2 o'clock,
when one of them saw = handkerchief
sticking up out of the water between
the logs. He approached the place
pulled out the handkerchief, and
reached down his arm and pulled uE
a piece of cloth with flesh upon it
A little further investigation revealed
to them the fact that the body mus
be that of George Reckard. 1t was
found in the water lodged among the
logs and brush. The handkerchief
which was the only thing that led te
the discovery, had been tiee
around the unfortunate man
neck at the time the wagon upset OF
Tuesday three weeks ago to-day
but became sufficiently loosened t.
be found on top of the water.
Reckard is reported to have ha'
$500 or s4OO worth of timechecks Of
the Philadelphia company in hi
clothes at the time of the drowning
Harry Schwamb and Others wen
up the river last evening on learnin
of the discovery, to extricate the bod,
which was reported to be badly de
composed.
As some doubts had been strongl
expressed as to the drowning OF tt
man, the finding of his body has lie
no more chance for discussion.

A New Camp.

East High Prairie, as a mining
camp, will soon be known and rank
with those of the most noted in the
Territory. 1t may need the attention
of mining capitalists who have money
to invest, and who would certainly be
well paid for any investment in any of
the mining claims there. The new
discoveries are situated on East High
Prairie, Pine Grove Mining District,
Alturas Co., Idaho, about ten miles
southeast of Pine Grove, near the
headwaters of Lime Creek. Mr..
Powers, better known as "Old Ken
tuck" miner and prospector,
at the time of the discovery of the
Emma Mine, had charge of large
band of sheep there. He gave i'm
