Patrick Marley has been making
arrangements with the Cold Hiil
company, of Qeartzbufg, for work
ing their sulphurets, taken from the
Gold Hill nine. There are about
1000 tons of sulphurets on the dump,
which have been taken out during
the past eighteen years, and iaid
aside for future working. Mr. Mar
lev had assays made, and the sui
phurets ran SCI per ton. He made a
working test, and ran up TO 81 per
cent. of the assay, but when the plant
is up can work to higher per cent
than that Mr.. Marley will put up
couple of reverberatory furnaces this
fall; also two roasters, and will have
charge of the running Of them. Mr.
Marley is an experienced hand at
both smelling and roasting. He can
not be exceled IN these lines by any
one. He did the first smelling ever
done on the Pacific Coast at Little
Cottonwood, Utah. The mine own
ers of that place had been shipping
their ores 10 Swansea, Wales, and
Mr.. Marley convinced them that the
ores could be worked there, by put
ting up a cupola furnace and running
it successfully. After that no more
ores we're shipped from that place,
and smelters went up all over the
Pacific Coast. Marley's furnace at
! Little Cottonwood was put up in 1870
! With the two furnaces and roasters
Mr.. Marley will work aboat twenty
tons of sulphurets per day. Besides
working the Gold Hill sulphurets, he
will do custom work, and will work
ore at low figure. 1t will pay al
who have this kind of ore, to make
arrangements with Marley for work
ing them. Dave Coughanour, OF the
Gold Hill company, has promised t.
furnish the plant, which will be run
ming inside of thirty days after arriy
al. Several experts from Californi;
and other places have examined thu
Gold Hill company's pile OF sui
phurets, made working tests, anc
their verdict was that they could no
be worked at a profit. Their work
ing tosts ran less than fifty per cent
of the assay valne. Marley's run

The Rev. A. Jerome Matthews, for
the past two years Roman Catholic
priest at St. Mary's, Bath, has adj
dressed the following letters to the
members of his congregation:
Ny very dear friends: have to
make an announcement which will be
painful to yourselves and 20 me. 1t
will be very brief, for it is sad to
part from you; it will be sadder for
YOU to learn the cause. After long
and anxious thought and study, J
have arrived at the conviction that
the Jewish and Christian script
ures, though possessing many
excellencies, are full Of legendary
and neurological statements, and
that they possess no claim to and
manifest no evidence Of divine inspi-
ration; that the Roman Catholic
church has no claim to be regarded
as divinely constituted authority
that the Papacy is a human institu-
ton, gravely composed of error and
superstition, and, therefore, injurious
to the spiritual and temporal welfare
of mankind; that Jesus Christ, though
holy man and ardent reformer, was
not the great God Of the universe
but the son of Joseph and Mary; that
neither demoniacal spirit, nor a plac E
or state of everlasting torment have
any existence in fact, but originate
in ancient mythologies. With these
convictions, which ! have strived
against for long time without sue
cess, it would be dishonest for me tC
continue as priest, teaching only
the pure theism of natural splritua
religion, which | profoundly believe
and desire to promote. | therefore
this day return to your excellent anc
kind bishop the sacredotal faculties
entrusted to me by his lordship.
retire from the midst Of you with t
heart full of kindness and gratitude
to YOU all. All the condolences, spr
itual and temporal, of my ministry
will be faithfully observed. As soor
as can get my house off my hands
shall leave, as my continued pres
ence close to the church would be ;
painful reminder to us both Of pas
full of happiness until doubt agitate'
my mind. These doubts | have beer
careful not to unfold to any of you
and | have proved to you the minis
) try of worthy priests ignorant of m
mental conflict. With sad and low
ing heart, then | commended you
my dear and valued friends, to tn,
Eternal Father of Spirits, and let u
ever remember one another in tn

field making estimates. Jackson
Lake Is capable of being made a
storage reservoir holding 100000
feet Of water, or enough to irrigate
5,O00,O acres and the cost not to
exceed 100000. This would insure
irrigation for the entire valley, while
Henry's Lake would also afford good
storage at small cost Surveys give
an estimate on the valley lands to be
reclaimed Weiser, $4,000 acres;
Boise, 100000 acres; Camas Prairie,
100000 acres; Wood River, 100000
acres; making on Snake river and
tributaries over 100000 acres sus-
oeptlble of irrigation. The estimate
OF storage cost is so cents per acre.
Two-thlrds of Snake river valley is
believed to be subject to reclamation
1t has been urged that tho govern
ment should make the SURVEYS and
render aid by turning the lands over
To the State, which should make the
Improvements and sell the lands L

AMERICAN AssoCIAT'N. WON -IIosTIPIAYEn
The Behring Sea Trouble.

The Canadian excitement over the
seizure of the sealing vessel '.Black Dia
mond," appears, so far, to be tempest
in teapot. The event has created very
little comment in either army or navy
circles in the United States.
The dispatch to the San Francisco
Chronicle dated August 1st says:
1t is understood that before he left
this country for England Sir Julian
Pauncefote, the British Minister, was
in consultation with Secretary Blaine in
reference to this very matter, as we'll as
the Atlantic seaboard fisheries.
1t is asserted that Sir Julian told the
Secretary of State that the British Gov
eminent is as DESTROYS of preventing the
determination OF the fur seals as is the
American Government, but the British
are not willing to admit the claim of the
United States that Behring sea is a
closed sea.
The story states further that the prime
object OF the return of the British Min
lister was not, as reported, to bring his
family over, although he will bring them
with him on his return, but to secure
from the British Home Office the draft
OF a new convention covering many of
the subjects now in dispute. It is owing
to this fact undoubtedly that Assistant
Secretary Wharton expresses his I'M
qualified belief that the reported seizure
will not lead to any open rupture.
A gentleman who was strongly instru-
mental in securing the passage of the
bill for the protection of the fur seal in
dustry, which is the basis of General
Harrison's proclamation of last March,
admitted frankly to-day that he did not
believe at the time he spoke in behalf of
the bill on the floor of the House that
the United States could maintain its
position of exclusive jurisdiction over
the body of water known as Behring sea.
He said further that one of the objects of
those who urged the passage of the bill
most strenuously was to bring about
some negotiations which would result in
an international agreement to protect the
breeding grounds and to prevent the
slaughter of female seals.
