THE PRIDE OF IDAHO.
Its New Owners will Soon Begin ship.
ping Ore.

Mr.. Gates of the Pride of Idaho
mine, came down from the East Fork
Of Wood River yesterday, to have
some samples assayed. He says that a
few tons OF ore were shipped from the
mine to ketchum lately; but that it
was some that belonged to the former
owners of the property. He has be-
tween $4,000 aud $1,000 worth of ore
on the dump, but will run it through
the North Star concentration before
he ships it, as he wishes to ship none
but the cle~nest possible kind of ore.
The mine, Mr.. Gates says, is looking
very we'll indeed; and If lead and
silver could only go up to living
prices, he would think that he has a
most excellent bargain.

THE PERFORMANCE.
4 Powerful Play Powerfully Presented
by Powerful Players.

Oy TOWeTIul KlAycESs
Tho Vessels Company opened in
HALEY Theater, last evening, in the
"Black Flag" a play abounding in
strongly sensational scenes and emo
tionsl situations, which afford the
various members OF the Company q
fair opportunity to display their
ability. All the members Of the COM
pany are superior actors in their
lines; but Mr.. Vessels, who appeared
in the character of "Harry Glyndon."
an estimable, obliging, steady going
and courageous young man who is
a member of the Life.saving Crew,
and Mr.. John Mari, who imperson.
ated lazarus, a London sharper"
are deserving OF special mention. So
is Mr.. Game, who appeared as Owen
Glyndon, an honorable man but iron
willed father. Mr.. Cummings, as
"Flash Jack" the heavy villain Of the
piece, was "dat, dull, and uninterest.
ing" He seemed scarcely able to
speak. Miss Jennie Darragh, as
"Ned," cabin boy, did very we'll.
Messrs. Vessels and Mari and Miss
Darragh really captured the house, and
voro frounopt}v rowardei with an.
plause; but Mr.. Mari, the "Sheeney,"
just suited the "gods," who did not
fail to give evidence of their apprecla.
ton of him.
This evening, "My Partner" all
effective melodrama, will be pre-
scented. The Theater should be
crowded.

The Convention will probably take
a recess before another ballot is or
dered, and it may even adjourn until
tomorrow morning. Some OF the
delegates, worn out by the excite
ment Of tho week, are beginning to
wish for adjournment, and many OF
the visitors who came to look after
their favorites have left for their
respective homes.
The platform is generally com
mended in all but free trade quarters;
and it is confidently expected that
lead and silver will now enter upon
an era of steady enhancement in
price, which will continue unless the
signs of the times should indicate a
Democratic victory.
The feeling among the various del
ecations is that the friends Of every
candidate should have an even show
to push his favorite to the front; but
the general opinion is that if after a
few more ballots no selection has
been made there will be break fol
Blaine aud general wheeling into
line for the Plumed Knight.
Sherman's maximum strength is no
expected to exceed $50 votes.

THE FISHERY TREATY.
The Supposed Features of the New Treaty
Made With Great Britain.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 17-The Fisheries
treaty, which was signed Wednesday even
ing, was the subject Of much speculation
and discussion at the capitol to-day. While
declining to give any specific information
as to its provisions, Secretary Bayard said
that for many years the great contentious
among American fishermen had been for a
fair and just construction Of the treaty of
1918 and that the present treaty had been
framed by the American negotiators with
aview to meeting the needs and necessities
of American fishermen, and he believed
that If the treaty was ratified that end
would have been accomplished. From
a trustworthy source it is learned
th at to American fishermen are secured all
the commercial privileges for which they
have been contending with the exception
OF the right to purchase bait in Canadiap
waters, which is expressly withheld, but
their right to enter Canadian ports for fuel,
water and repairs is conceded. Certain
bays which are specified are to remain un'
der the exclusive Jurisdiction OF Canada.
There is nothing In the provisions OF the
treaty, it is said, which necessltates the
removal of the duty on Canadian fish, or in
any way changes the tariff system. In its
important features, the treaty, it is stated
is favorable to the United States, and while
new and valuable privileges have been &C
auired, this has been done without any
cosfly sacrifice

END OF THE STRIKE.
The Readipg NIii4rs Ordered to Return to

The Reading Mi,4rs Ordered to Return to
Work-The Railroad Strikers Furious.
PoTTsvILLE, Pa. Feb. 1S.-Master Work
man Lewis arrived here from Philadelphia
last evening, bringing copies of correspond
ence between himself and President Cor
bin, looking to resumption at all the
Reading mines. It was understood the
miners would be paid the old scale Of $3.50
until change was mutually agreed upon,
no prejudice to exist on account OF the men
having been on strike.
Lewis Immediately went into consulta-
ton with the members of the joint commit
tee. with the result that this action was
ratified and an address was issued order
ing immediate resumption. This sudden
tu..a in affairs produced the liveliest graft
fication among all classes except the strlk-
ing railroaders, who were abandoned to their
fate.
Lee and other railroad leaders are furl-
GUS at Master Workman Lewis and un-
sparing in their denunciation of his alleged
perfidy. They were in close communica'
tion last night, presumably striving to de-
wise some expedient to meet the new phase
OF the situation, but the universal opinion
among the outside community Is that the
railroad strike is now hopelessly lost

The Journal des Debats publishes an
interview with De Brazza, the explorer,
in regard to Henry M. Stanley. De
Brazza believes that after leaving the
Aruwimi river Stanley, in order to
feed his men, would be required to
make daily calls upon the tribes in the
districts through which the expedition
passed. This, of necessity, would
ioblige him to push on with all possible
speed. Stanley has probably joined
Emin Bey, who would return home via
Khartoum or Suakim, as he would not
return by way of Zanzibar unless he
felt that the strength of his expedition
would enable him to force his way.

MAYOR HEWITT wrote another lette

MAYOR HEWITT wrote another letter
recently to Ex-Governor Hoadley
about the Electoral Commission dis
cussion, Speaking on the subject, he
said: II see that Governor Hoadly
claims that Mr.. Tilden wrote letter
about the bill to the National Demo-
cratic Committee. If such letter was
written never knew any thing about
it. think that if the National Com
mittee had received such letter
would have known something about it,
as ! was chairman OF the committee at
the time and the only representative in
Washington. If MIR. Tilden had wanted
the bill defeated all that he had to do
was to say SO. If Governor Hoadly
knew of the existence of such q letter
as he speaks Of, let him produce it. y
Subsequently Mr.. Hewitt reiterated the
statement that Mr.. Tlden knew in ad-
vance of the contents of the Electoral
Commission bill, for he (Hewitt) had
personally informed him of the facts.
