Attempt to Murder.

Fred. O'Brien, a miner, has been
arrested for attempting to murder
William Hendy, foreman of the
Minnie Moore, under the following
circumstances, which are related in
the Bellevue Herald:
Tuesday evening about Z o'clock
VIM. Heady, foreman of the Minnie
Moore, was at his residence, corner oil
Elm and Second street, looking
under the porch for litter OF kittens,
While in this position a shot was
fired, Fred O'Brien was seen in close
proximity with revolver IN hand,
and began abusing Hendy, who be-
gan making for the door. The testi j..
mony for plaintiff yesterday gave
these facts, and while witnesses
seemed to be doubtful about who
fired the shot, and what at, all agree
that O'Brien had Il pistol in hand, and
immediately after the shot both men
ran--O'Brien toward Main street,
ana Hendy for the door. The two
exchanged few words, O'Brien to
the effect that Hendy not only fired
him, but abused him.
The matter is being investigated
before Justice Reisull.

The Silver King Mine.

The Silver King mine, of Beaver
Canyon, near Sawtooth, is proving to
be very valuable property. The
leasers keep between 20 and 30 men
at work, and extract between two
and three tons of first class ore per
day. The ground is very expensive
to work, but as the ore averages 800
ounces silver to the ton, the leasers
are realizing good profit.

CIGARETTES AND INSANITY.

Mrs. Sadie Walters, a weli-dressed
and comely Chicago woman, twenty
two years old, has been adjudged
insane, and will be sent to the
ayslum. She is the wife of a travel
ing salesman. She has become
insane from smoking cigarettes. In
court Mrs. Walters was quiet, and
she sat in her chair before the Jury
laughing at the testimony given by
her friends. From testimony given
in court and the statements of her
husband and brother, made subse-
quently, it appears that about two
years ago Mrs. Walters suffered from
hay fever. She was recommended
to try cubeb cigarettes, which she
did. From this use she contracted
the habit of using the tobacco kind,
and her desire for them became so
strong that she smoked almost con-
stantly. Her friends admonished
her to quit the practice. but all to no
avail. When she was brought to
Jail a package of the noxious things
was found in her pocket.

the best mode of securing an honest

ton just passed with the accusation
Of Illegal voting and fraudulent bal

gests the propriety of referring to the
matter again. With that system
