Funeral of L. G.. Dollarhide.

The funeral service of the late
L. C. Dollarhide was held in Union
Church at 2 O'Clock P. NJ. Thursday.
The body was embalmed and ship
ped from the Arkansas Hot Springs
in a Theoretically sealed case and
was in a good state of preservation.
The features were natural. From
the church the relatives and a large
concourse of friends followed the
remains to their last resting place
and at the grave the Rev. /. I. Os-
born performed the last sad rites.
Deceased was well known on the
River and leaves a host Of friends
and bereaved home to mourn his
sad and untimely demise. He was
an invalid for a number Of years at
that time which, to those of health,
is the most precious period OF life
when youthful hopes are budding
and the golden opportunities OF life
are drawing upon them. Deceased
was the only son of Mr.. and Mrs. A.
H. Dollarhlde, to whom the loss is
indeed great one. The sympathy
of the community will go out to
them in their affection. Messrs.
Joseph Pinkham, T. W. Gillette,
Jerome F. Jacobs, J. G. Rumsey,
Merit Comstock and Geo. NJ. Snow
acted as pail bearers at the funeral.

Our Juvenile Band.

The people of HALEY received
the Juvenile band with enthusias m
and evinced their appreciation of
it by hearty and repeated applause
as the little fellows moved in the
procession there on the Fourth.
The Inter-Idaho pays the following
generous tribute to the boys and
their honored director:
When Prof Montgomery brought forth
the Ketchum Juvenile band and smoothed
the ruffed souls of the crowd--so sweetly,
so kindly-every mothers lips went out
to meet the dear boys. Ketchum may
we'll feel proud of her Juvenile band.
The boys stood up grandly under
the pressure of hard work, hot
weather and dust and led their di-
vision of the procession in tip-top
style. Joe Montgomery has shown
himself to be a master of that line
of business and has already had a
dozen or more applications from
leading citizens of HALEY to organ
ize a juvenile band at that place.
Such an organization when lead by
good moral example is certainly
possessed of some virtue as a means
of discipline in department and
rectitude, to say nothing Of the ad-
vantages of an underlying educa-
ton in music. Mr.. Montgomery
has at all times endeavored to dis
courage any indication of hoodlum
propensities among the boys and
has looked out for their morals as
we'll as their music. 1t is said to
his credit that he will not allow the
band to accept treats" smoke CT
garettes or otherwise indulge their
American spirit of deviltry, and it
is fact that all of them honor and
respect him almost as a parent.
There are most assuredly worse
places for young boys than the
band room.

A Mistake.

The Ramshorn mine yields about
80 tons of dry ores, carrying from
80 to 1900 ounces per ton, daily,
and the Beardsley about 90 tons
per day. The yield could easily
be doubled if the works could turn
it into bullion; but they cannot
Besides, there is much trouble il
getting it out of the country. Sew
eral carloads of bullion are stacked
up at the works, which teams left
Ketchum this morning to bring to
the railroad.-Challis Messenger.
The foregoing item appeared in
the KEYSTONE of June :Oth. Since
that time the editor of this paper
has personally called upon the man
ager of the Ketchum Fast Freight
Line to ascertain the facts relative
to the shipment Of bullion from the
Ramshorn works, which convert the
ores of the Ramshorn and Boards
ley mines at Bayhorse, and was in
formed that the Messengers state
ment was untrue. 1t is quite evil
dent from the books of that line
that its teams have hauled to
Ketchum the entire output of the
works at Bayhorse and kept their
current output cleared up at all
times in addition to bringing out
several hundred tons which was on
hand when hauling began. Every
pound of bullion and ore for ship
ment from Custer county has been
promptly delivered to the railroad
here by that line and it could read
ily command sufficient transporta-
ton to keep all the works and mines
in that county cleared up of twice
their present output. The KEYSTONE
has seen statistics on this matter
and knows whereofit speaks. With
all due respect to our enterprlslng
contemporary we believe it to be
misinformed on this subject.

ROAD AGENTS CAPTURED.
The Men Who Held Up the Challia
Stage Captured in Montana.

The circumstances of the robbery
of the Challis stage two weeks ago
by two men who carried off 1OO
pounds of Dickens-Cu bullion,
were telegraphed all over the coun-
try, and hand bills were circulated
giving a description of the supposed
robbers and offering a reward of
$500 for their capture and 5000 for
the return Of the bullion. The Dill
lon, Montana, Tribune contains the
following: 'On Wednesday after
noon two strangers were noticed in
Argenta: and deputy sheriff Fox
who had been watching them, con-
cluded from the description that
they were the men who robbed the
coach over in Idaho. These men,
who go by the names of Baxter and
Ashley, came from the Idaho direc-
ton and snapped two horses, one
stolen one, at Browns ranch ION
Horse Prairie, the day before they
reached Argenta. Deputy sheriff
Fox arrested the men about six
O'Clock, and with James Nackay,
the deputy brought the prisoners
to Dillon and lodged them in Jail.
Yesterday Thursday R. C. Wat
son, division agent Of the stage
company, arrived in Dillon. He
had trailed the robbers from Idaho
over into Montana and returned to
the railroad by the way of Nichola.
Going to Blackfoot Watson took
the next north-bound train and on
reaching Dillon he found the men
he was pursuing lodged in Jail
The prisoners refused to go back
to Idaho without requisition from
the Governor of that Territory.
When the necessary papers arrive
they will be taken back to Idaho,
and thei. preliminary examination
Will be held at Challis."
Sheriff Trapp, of Custer county,
has gone after the prisoners pos
sessed of the necessary docu-
ments, and will probably have them
in Challis in a few days.

MINING SUMMARY.

Inc second instalment of pur
chase money for the Pride of Idaho
was paid to James w. Dawson or
Monday last. The purchasers, rep
resented by Mr.. Gates, have taker
hold Of the property in good faith
and propose to pay for it strict,
according to contract, and to make
mine out Of it There is no doubt
that they will do both.
Miners from Smoky bring very
favorable reports of developments
in the King of the West. The ore
is constantly increasing in quantity
and quality with depth.
Messrs. Morrison & Pearsons
have just shipped six bars of silver.
gold bullion to New York city fol
conversion.
The first National Bank shipped
small lot of ore Tuesday. They
were from the Emma, Elkhorn and
other mines.
The King of the West mill is ex.
pected to be ready to start up by
the 18th or Goth Of this month
The company will therefore prob
ably be in shape to declare divi-
dends by the first of September.
The owners of the Ophir, Yam
kee Blade and Belcher mines, on
Boulder creek, who have shipped
an average of II carloads of ore
per week since the LIST of May, in
tend to shut down in few days
They have one or two carloads OF
ore out on the dump which they
will ship, but will extract no more
at present.-Hailey Times.
The above item is misleading
The Times should have said: 1.-THE
lessees, &C., whose term expires in
few days, will not have time to
strip sufficient ore to make ship

shipped all they have extracted,

Silver City Avalanche: The pur-
chasers of the Orc Elmo group of
mines have registered in London
under the Orc Elmo Limited Com
pany, by which name this famous
group of producers will hereafter
be known. Judging from the way
the owners are pushing matters,
Silver City will soon be a lively
camp.
We learn from reliable parties
that the Bullion mine (the old Lyd-
die and Harpser) between Florence
and the wire bridge in Idaho county
has been bonded for $4,000 to a
Portland company, which J. H.
