The Branch Train.

The Branch engine having run off
the track just as it was leaving the
depot at Stoshone, this morning, the
train for the Branch did not leave the
Junction until 2:l0 o'clock this after
noon, and did not, therefore, reach
Haley until after 5 o'clock.
The return train was to leave Hal
lev about $50 o'clock and make the
run to Shoshore in an hour and a
half, i'll order to connect with the east
bound train which awaited it at Sho-
shone. The through train having but
two or three stoppages to make be-
tween Shoshone and Pocateiio, and a
clear track all the way, can easily make
up an hour or two between the two
points.

TIE CHAMPLAIN COMPANY.
Its Operations Satisfactory to the
Stockholders.

J. G. Iverson, one of the principal
stockholders Of the Cbampain Min
ing Company, who has been here for
a week, reports himself as perfectly
satisfied with the operations at his
company's property so far. To be
sure, the mill is scarcely run four
hours day owing to the lack OF
water; but as they only put in the
small plant to test the value of the
ore by mill process, it is doing as
we'll as could be expected. AS with
Il sutiiciency of water the mill could
reduce 30 tons Of ore per "a hours,
Superintendent Bailey will now set
about looking for water. supply by
boring an ar,esian well. If he sue
ceeds in getting water. the plant will
be increased until it has capacity
equal to 100 stamps.
On the other hand, if a sufficient
supply Of water cannot be obtained,
the company will operate its mill as
at present until tramway or railway
shall be in operation that will bring
the Gold Belt ores to Wood River for
reduction.

THE HALEY HOT SPRINGS.
They are Now tie Property Of Robert
Strah0rn 4 Co.

To-day Robert Strahorn & Co.
took up the deed conveying to them
all the right, title aud interest of the
Smith estate in and to the HALEY
Hot Springs, which had been in as.
crow for some time past, by paying
the purchase price, which is $SOoo.
This, although a fair consideration
under the circumstances, is a mere
song when the present and prospec-
tive value of the property is taken in
to consideration; but it is better for
the old owners, for this community,
and for the world at large that the
property should have changed hands.
The new owners have prac-
t'cally unlimited resources, and
will work in harmony with the
Union Pacific Railway officials. They
will at once proceed to pillow up a
considerable proportion of the grounds
surrounding the springs, build an
elegant dwelling for the residence of
the manager, Robert E. Strahorn and
his wife, also erect an hotel with u
limited number of rooms for the ex-
elusive use Of invalids who may not
be able to ride back and forth be.
tween tine town and springs, set out
ornamental shade and fruit trees and
shrubs, and a large variety of choice
Towering plants, build fence around
the whole, and make other improve.
ments as they suggest themselves.
They will not only work for the pres
ent, as they will move after a we'll
thought-out plan, with the view of
attaining to the highest degree Of
development Of which the business
and property shall be capable.
In the execution of this plan care
viii! be taken to extensively advertise
the springs in the hundreds of thou
sand copies of the various publications
of the literary bureau of the Union
Pacific Company, as well as in other
publications; and by this time next year
the Haley Thermal Springs will be al
most as widely known as the Wood
River country is to-day, aud wealthy
tourists will be coming to visit them
in ever'lncreaslng numbers.
In order to be able to properly &C.
commodate the expected flood of
tourists Strahorn s. Co. will doubtless
soon find that one or two Of our first.
class hotels are indispensable; and
they will therefore either pur.
chase the Merchants and Alturas, or
build one that will be equal to these
two il every respect.

 Passengers summarily Punish a Would
 Be Train Robber.
 MANSFIELD, O., May "A bold but bum gling attempt to rob the limited express, No. 6, on the Baltimore and Ohio road, at an early hour Sunday morning, was frustrated by the prompt action of the train crew and some of the passengers. The train being stopped at this station a man entered the smoking car, where most of the passengers were dozing, and attempted to snatch the watches of three of them in succession. He had only succeeded in obtaining one watch when the occupants of the car became aroused and the thief made a rush for the door, only to be met by Conductor Corwin, who, taking in the situation at a glance, dealt the scoundrel a tremendous hlow ever the head with his lantern, bringing him to the floor senseless.
 A corporal of Company G, Fifth infantry, who was carrying an insane soldier from Fort Keogh, M. T., to the National asylum, quickly produced a pair of handcuffs, and when the prostrate bandit regained con- sciousness he found himself manacled and among crowd of passengers who talked ex- citedly of the bell cord and the nearest tele- graph pole. The thief begged piteously for his life, and after he had been searched and weapons found on his person, and there being no policeman within call, the crowd yielded to the counsels of Conductor Corwin. The rascal, after receiving a severe thrashing, was allowed to go and the train proceeded on its way.
 Two companions of the scoundrel, who were stationed on the side of the train oppo- site the depot, took to their heels on the first alarm. The stolen watch was of course re turned to its owner.

Lynch Law in California.

ST. HELENA, Cal, May 7.-John Wright, who shot and killed young man named Budd Vann, in this town, about two weeks ago, was taken from the jail by a mob of masked men and hanged to a bridge. At the time Vann was killed be and several com panions were standing near a house of ill fame, and ono of the crowd throw stone through the window. Wright, who was a brother of one of the inmates, was in the house at the time, and immediately fired a pistol, striking Vann and infiicting a fatal wound. Wright had been confined in the jail, but it was not thought any attempt would be made at lyuching.

The Lilly Hoyle Murder.

WORCESTER, Mass, May 7.-Thomas B. McQuaid, who is under arrest at New York for the murder of Lilly Hoyle, is the son of Thomas McQuaid, wholesale liquor dealer. The young man is 24 years old. He was graduated at the College of the Holy Gross in this city in 1Ss6 Si1ace leaving college he has studied medicine in New York. Last summer he went to Europe with his father, returning shortly before Lilly Hoyle's disap- pearance. The detectives will say nothing as to their evidence against McQuaid, but the popular belief is that the girl left her home on the night of Sept. 1, to meet McQuaid, in whose medical knowledge and skill she had confidence, and that she died from an over dose of chloroform. Cowie may have been called in to help dispose of the body.

A Shortage of $5O,OOO.

BOSTON, May 7.-The embezzlement of J. Benjamin Palmer, stock exchange brok- CT, of this city, who was arrested at his home in Peabody yesterday, proves worse than at first reported, amounting to S5O,- 900.
 Palmer belongs to one of the oldest families of Peabody. Arrest was made on a warrant issued under complaint of Thomas w. Flynn of Flynn Brothers, Washington street tailors. Embezzlement charged in the warrant, however, forms but small part of Palmer's alleged dishonest dealings. Bail in his case was fixed this morning at s2O, ,OOO, which was furnished. Palmer's total available property is $9,000 balance on value of his seat in the stock exchange.

During the night a number of masked men seized Frazier, and, taking him to the spot where he had mur- dered Cox, killed him with guns and pistols His body was mutilated almost beyond recog- milton. Frazier was considered a desperate character. Cox leaves a widow and five small children

WATERFOWL, N. Y., May John B. Chapman, the farmer who was swindled out of $7, ,040, by being induced to purchase what purported to be two gold bars worth $2O, ,OOO, is the individual who, only four weeks ago, was the defendant in suit for breach of promise in. the Jefferson county court, in which Miss Chellis, a school teacher of this city, received judgment for $S,000.

Chapman bought the bars after a Syracuse jeweler had declared that the dust which had been bored out of one of them was genuine gold The name of one of the swindlers is Bradley, and another gave his name as (1ay. y.frar
