MINING MOTIFS.

V. Domski, owner of the Venus
mine on East Fork, made ship
ment of 1898 pounds of ore from
his mine this week, which assayed
521 ounces silver, Sc gold and 81
per cent lead per ton. This GER
tainly is very fine showing, the
more so because it was taken out
by the labor of one man in four
weeks time.
Some ten or twelve miners have
recently been laid off at the Silver
King mine at Sawtooth. Twelve or
fifteen men will be employed at the
mine during the winter doing de-
velopment work preparatory for
spring operations.
The Niagara Mining and Smelt-
ing Company, of Idaho, has been

president, Ole H. Peterson, treas
urer, and John Wall, secretary, with
headquarters in Salt Lake City,
Utah. The capital stock is placed
at 100000. The property of the
company consists of the Gear"
Mammoth, Neptune" and Go
penhagen" mining claims, situated
| in Alder Greek District, Bingham
county. All the properties show
large bodies of mineral, and smell
ter will be built to treat the ores.

The Governments Prosecutor Chai-
icnges Two Negro Jurymen.
lNnahlngton Postl

The trial 10 the Criminal curt yesterday
OF two eolored boys named Tnrney MeCas-
sey and Charles Fletcher Tor HOUSEKEEPING
developed quite little feeling m regard TO
the color line In the Jury. Wnen the latter
was being empanellPd Dir. Lirscomb chal-
lcneed tao coored men on tue panel, Peter
X. Jones and John II. Beall. Ia commenting
on this fact Moss, the colored LAWYER, who
With STR. Kicks represented The PRISONERS,
said that the time was past when col0red
man could not have an Impartisl trial before
a Jury. He was proceeding with further re-
marks on the colored question, when he was
Interrupted by Judge Montgomery, who re-
minded him that comments OF this sort we're
out Of place at such time and Onproicsslon-
al IN their character.
In charging the jury Judge Montgomery
said that, outside OF the ordinary points in
the case that demanded their attention, an
other seemed to have arisen 10 which Il would
be proper to call their attention. Judge
Montgomery said
&" Il seems 10 be inevitable that men Of both
colors, white and black, should constitute
the iuries 10 this court; that certainly IS the
only fair way for the oo,ored peonle TO have
a iair representation. | don't heiieVe-l feel
very sure that no man VINO il flo 10 sIt upon
the jury viii allow himself 10 be influenced
In the slightest degree BY the consideration
that one Of the itigants is black. He would
deserve 10 bring down upon himself the
contempt OF every honest man in the COM
munity."
The Judge said that any white man or
colored man who would be consciously in
huenced by these considerations was greatly
30 be condemned. He had no doubt that the
jury intended 10 give the defendant fair,
honest trial.
I here has been considerable disposition TO
"draw the color line" in the Criminal Court,
and the question has become one Of coBslde-
rable Importance. In the case OF George
Boston, a colored msn charged with embez-
Element. the Jury stood eleven 10 one for
conviction. The juror who declined 10 he
convinced was a cOiorcd man named Bartlett
Taylor. who is said 10 belong to the same or
gqnizatiOn as Boston. Jurors Jones and
Beail have succeeded in changing" a num-
Der Of iuries, and the action Of the Govern.
ment in challenging them he's been made the
text for clustic comment in one or two in-
stances.
