Delicate Surgical OperatiOn.-On
Friday evening last DIR. Rheinfrank, with
DIR. Forbes of Toledo, as counsel, and
Drs. Emery, of Maumee, and Bowers, of
this place, as assistants, performed the
delicate operation of excision of the hip
joint on little nine year old boy named
John Ruckriegel, who resides with an
uncle of the same name three miles east
of town. The little sufferer had his hip
severely injured in a scuffie at school
some two years ago, from the effects of
which the bone of the hip joint has been
decaying for some time past. This was
taken from the socket, the decayed por-
tion removed and the joint again replac-
ed. The little sufferer is bearing up
well under the operation, and it is
thought he will pull through all right,
Boys in their ruff and tumble scuflles at
school, base ball, etc, don't give much
heed to results that are likely to follow
of this nature.

Another FrIghtrul Accldent.-Abo,

Another FrIghtful Accident.-Abo
4 o'clock yesterday afternoon Mrs. John
Lintner, who resides some three miles
out the Pike, was driving into town
bringing her sister homo to the resi-
dence of their father, Mr.. John Dorr, on
Sixth street. While crossing the Grassy
Creek bridge in the south part of town
the horse took fight and jumped off the
bridge, carrying the buggy and occu-
pants with it. The buggy turned upside
down and almost buried Mrs. Lintner
beneath it in the mud and water some
ten or twelve feet below. Some of the
near neighbors saw the accident and
were soon on the spot and relieved them
from their perilous position. Mr.. Frank
Thornton took them to the home of their
father and DR.. Rheinfrank was sum
moned. He found both of them severe
ly bruised, but no bones broken.
This is only another added to the long
list of accidents of this nature in the
county during few years past, until
the list of killed and maimo reach
about an equal number of those destroy
ed in the Anarchist riot in Chicago. Is
there nobody responsible to God nor
man for this sacrifice?

Town Hall on Saturday evening WAS a
rare treat for our citizens. The Hall was

the cause Is mainly attributable TO the

THE BEDROCK PLUME.

The board of trade of Boise City
have forwarded a protest to Hon.
F. T. Dubois, against the passage
of the bill introduced by him in
Congress sometime ago to grant
the right of-way to the Boise Basin
Bed Rock Flume Co. and permits
sion to construct a bedrock fume
through Boise and Ada counties.
The proposition raises the "debris
question which hasso long agitated
the grangers of California.
There is very little probability -of
the bill ever reaching a hearing be-
fore the proper committe, much
less of its becoming a law as long
as so many of our senator's and
congressman have the good OF the
public domain" SO much on the
brain.
If such a fume was built II
might possibly cause some slight
damage and detriment to the farm
ing community, yet it would GER
tainly be Godsend to the owners
of mining claims along its proposed
course, and which they have held
onto these many years, waiting for
some such relief. 1t is generally
acceeded that upon the bedrock
of their claims, bushels of gold ex.
list, but it is valueless until they car
get water. If it would be the means
of thoroughly unlocking the wealth
of the auriferous deposits of the
great Boise Basin, we think the
right asked for in the bill ought te
be granted. Such relief would b'
especially welcome now in these
hard times caused by the contrac
ton of the currency and the de
monetization of silver. But con
gress is letting legislation upo1

A BILL has been introduced by
Representative Hermann to place
Winmeale Riddles name-a Modoc
Indian woman--on the pension
rolls at the rate of $25 per month
in consideration of the succor and
care she gave Col. Meacham, whom
she found in the lava beds desper-
ately wounded and for whom she
brought food and drink and bound
up his wounds, and all at the risk
of her own life. Should the bill
pass it will be the first time the
government has ever granted pen
sion to an Indian. Representative
Hermann has also introduced a
bill in the house for the disposal or
sale of mineral lands on Indian res
ervations, and also providing that
timber on such reservations may
be used for mining purposes when
a compensation has been made
There will no doubt be considera
BILE opposition to the bill from those
who think the Indians should no,

that there are mineral lands on sew

prospectors and miners off.
