While on a journey westward. was
compelled to wait for several hours in
the depot of one of our large cities. "A
small party near me attracted my ut
tention, One of them was a beautiful,
stylishly-dressed young lady, who
would re ceive admiration in any place,
for her lovely appearance and charm
ing manner There was bright-look-
ing, handsome, gentlemanly boy of
about eleven years, and two elderly
ladies, one of whom judged was his
mother.
I learned from their conversation
that the boy and his mother we're
leaving the city. and as they were very
near me could not help hearing some
of the conversation.
The young lady SAID, Harry. did
you get the bottle of wine?" Harry
said, mo, / forgot it," well, 60 and
get it now, for want you to have it,"
So The boy went out and after few
minutes returned with a bottle in his
hand. The young lady took it and
examined the brand, remarking that
this wine was of superior q uality, and
she knew be would like it, The lowell.
ness of that young lady faded, and
saw instead of the dark eyes and beau
titul complexion of charming woman,
the evil light of the willy tempter shin
ing through that handsome exterior.
Who can estimate the effects of that
deed? Possibly the loss of q soul. 1t
may mean unspessable anguish to
more than one loving heart, and whose
fault? Not the wine sellers! Not the
wine-maker's. Not the boys, but the
fault of the young lady who offered it!

THE SALOON-KEEPERS.
PERSIA F. CHASE.
James O'Neil, of HaverhIl, Mass, went
home drunk Monday night, and shot his wife
through the head.
These lines caught my eye in glanc-
ing over a paper recently; only few
words, but could We know the circum-
stance which led up to the writing of
this paragraph, it would no know
fill many pages. Think of the grief and
misery that came to the wife of James
O'Neil. before he shot her in his
drum kenness; shot her through the
head-the women he had promised
before God to love and cherish! But
was James O'Nell responsible for this
awful deed? He was at the time an
insane man, crazed with whisky that
someone had sold him. A man can
not go to drug store and purchase
poison with which to destroy his life
or that of his friends. Great care is
taken i'm the sale of dangerous articles
of commerce; the supply is limited,
and the salesman has strict rules in
regard to the disposition OF such arti-
Giles. But saloons, where deadly
poison is dealt out, are everywhere 10
he found, and it is sold in any quantity
desired.
James O'Neil is but one of thousands
who commit awful crimes when GRAZ
ed by liquor. We cannot look over a
daily paper without seeing an account
Of such deeds. The saloon keepers are
aware that they send their customers
to the prison cell and gallows; that
wives and children are invoking ours
es on their heads, but they do not care
as long as they are enriched by the bus
ines.
There is nothing in the world that
entails such woe and sin as the liquor
traffic. 1t ruins homes 1t breaks hearts,
it entices young men into paths of vice
it takes bread from the mouths OK
starving children, and even women
yield to the temptation of drink, and
virtue dies when the poisoned cup ls
raised to the lips-and yet people sit
quietly by, and see this business car
ried on.
Let every woman join heart and
hand with the w. c. T. o., thereby
showing her adherence for the liquor
traffic, and using what influence she
has in helping to put it down.

Rowell counted first in the second round
with q singing right handler on the nose,
which brought a good flow Of the ruby and
sent Maxfeld to his knees. After that
Rowell could not get over Maxfsld's guard,
and directed most of his work towards his
wind.
In the third round he landed a heavy
blow on Maxield's side. which sent the lat

moment. These were the only times he
reached Maxfield with any effect.
In the fourth round Billy Walters, Max

Ben" Ben responded to the appeal with

w. J. Chamberlain & Co., Denver, in

the situation OF copper as follows:
Cooper has drifted along in the same
rut as before, but there are signs OF uneasi-
ness. The Lake men are anxious to make
another contract at IL cents, with the
large consumers. but the naughty dealers
have been offering very small parcels at
that same figure. to very small buyers, and
a general state OF discomfort has resulted
aside from this, some squealing If heard
from the inside, and some Lake companies
have not been selling quite 80 freely as they
hoped for, and thew would not be averse
to a lower figure, especially since the bad
casting men have dropped prices very low
over to 1O.62A, thus creating a strong di
version in their favor among manufacture
ers and heavily cutting into the Lake trade
Meanwhile, consumers are running along

The ruction between Sheriff Lloyd and
the county commissioners, relative to the
apnointsnent OF q death watch on Harry
Roberts, the condemned murderer. was ter
minated yesterday, and Judge De Wolie,
who acted as umpire, declared in iavor OF
the sheriff, knocking out the commission
ara. Init the latter are not disabled alto
gether.
II will be remembered that somedays ago
TIE MINER published thefact that the com
missiouers had appointed s. 3. Irice as
special guard and death watch CT Roberts,
ard that Mr.. Lloyd had announced bis IN.
tention OF refusing Trice permission
toenter the Jail in that capacity.
The sheriff gave as his reason Tor
such refusal that he considered the
action of the board an unwarIantable liz
reference with his duty as slieriff, as ne
alone possessed authority to deputize any
person either as jailor or guard. He iur'
thermore said that the commissioners
should have appointed the extra laiior,
whom he employs at his pcrsoDaf expense,
and paid him out OF the countys iunos'
while on duty as deaf, watch and thus re.
lieyed him, as sheriff, for q short time at
least, OF an expense which he now bore and
which he considered should be borne by the
county.
Friday evening the county commission.
ers caused County Attorney Dewitt TO
draw up q complaint setting forth the
action OF the board in appointing q death
watch and the sheriff's refusal to lilo the
appointee to enter upon the discharge OF
his duties, and asked that the sheriff be
enioined from preventing Trice to the
enter jail in the capacity set. forth IN the
complaint. This WAS submitted o Judge LIE
Wolfe while sitting in chambers, yesterday.
Sheriff Lloyd was cited to appear before
the court and at 2 O'Clock Judge DeWoife
rendered his decision. He decided that he
had no authority to compel the sheriff to
recognize any appointee OF the commits
sioners and dismissed the complaint.
The commissioners we're consistent AND
as soon thereafter as possible passed an
order that no death watch should be
placed an Roberts to be paid by the coun
ty. This leaves the matter OF an extra
guard entirely with Sheriff Lloyd who may
incur the extra expense OF such guard OF
not, Just as he chooses.

EL~LENsBURG, w. T., July 5.-Ten blocks
OF the best portion Of this city are in
ashes, and nearly one hundred families are
homeless, and what was yesterday q

ruins. Owing to the excitement and con-
fusion, it lie impossible to ascertain how
the fire originated, but it 10 presumed it
was the result OF the celebration OF the

WHERE TIE FIRE STARTED.
It started in the north side OF the city at
10 o'clock in the evening, and with o. very
strong wind blowing from the northeast.
The fire department promptly came out,
but could do nothing to check the rapid adj
vance of the confagration, which within an
hour, spread to the business center.
Help was t~elegraphed for from nsighhor-
ing towns, but long before itcould reach the
scene the flames had literally wiped out the
heart OF the city and commenced to spread
among the residences on the south side.
Not until the main portion had been con.
sumed were there any signs OF abatement,
and it was nearly morning before the fire.
men secured any result from their tireless
effort. The cessation OF the winds had q
tendency to aid the firemen in checking the
progress of the fire, and at this hour it is
thought the flames are under control.
