From Mr. j. s. Hunt, OF Bliss, Ida
no, who is engaged in mining in the
4" -four gold "placers at Salmon Falls,
on the Snake river, reporter de-
rived some information in regard to
those mines, among the most curious
deposits of precious metals. The
gold is literally as fine as -four, it
taking, as he says, hundred colors
to make cent. Placers Of this kind
are found along the Snake river from
Blackfoot to near Huntington, and in
the locality where the mine is stu
ated there has never been found a
"nugget" as big as pins point.
Notwithstanding the dust-like nature
of the gold, his mine yields about
$1,000 per month. The gravel in
which it is found is from twelve to
thirty feet in depth. 1t is worked by
ground sluicing, the coarse gravel
being separated and the fine allowed
to run over burlap cloths. The fine
sand and gold which collects on these
cloths is passed over plates coated
with quicksilver, which takes up the
fine gold There should be no trou-
BILE about saving the gold in the black
sand found ON the beaches by this
system, as it cannot be any finer than
the gold Mr.. Hunt has. The Difficult.
ty probably would be to get plenty
of water and fine sand with plenty OF
gold in 1t. The placers along the
Snake river can only be worked in O
few places, on account of the mpos.
sibility of getting water on them
When asked how he supposed this
gold came to be so fine, Mr.. Hum
said he had three theories, but he die
not know which was the right one
1t was possible that at some time
the country where this -four gold j.
/ found was the beach of the sea, ant
the gold came there as it did on an,
of the beaches of this coast. Another
theory was that glaciers coming dowr
from the north grinding and powder
ing everything before them, nigh
have ground up this gold on their wa,
and deposited it in this. The thire
theory is that the gold was thrown GU
by volcanoes in a vaporized form anc
settled 10 some lake in the form O
gold "dust."

NEW YORK, July 1S.-Detective Nor
ris of Mississippi was at police headauar-
tiers tonight and stated that he had been
refused warrants at the Tombs police
court for the arrest of Mitchell and Don
ovan, and had sent telegram to that
effect to Governor Lowry. In reply he
received the following dispatch:
''Need not arrest and detain the parties
as fugitives from this state, as you sug-
gested We will await investigation of the
grand jury. Ascertain facts as instructed
and report to me- Further instructions
mailed to you yesterday
Detective Norris said he had been in
the city two days, acting under instruc-
tions from the governor. His original
intention was to arrest Mitchell, Donovan
and others who took any part in the
fight as fugitives from Mississippi.
The refusal OF the Judge to issue war
rants changed the programme and Nor
ris now awaits the mailed instructions OF
the governor. Since his arrival here
Norris said he has been engaged in get
ting the names, addresses and all possible
information about the participants in the
fight from the principals down. He
branded as lie the story that he
was to get $3.50 for taking the
Kilrain party safely through
Mississippi TO New Orleans. The detec-
tive also added he would be sorry to see
Muldoon get into any trouble. The
wrestler did him favor some years ago
and he remembers it.

is that he is an EnglIshman intending 20

sion and the sale of the
Cherokee outlet. That these lands
were to be homes of the American farm
ers in very short time he regarded GER
tain as fate, and in his opinion common
sense and the welfare of the Cherokees
dictated the policy of meeting the COM
missioners half way and the sale of the
lands upon the best terms possible. He
believed the commissioners were
disposed to be friendly and
generous in their dealings
with the Indians and that by prudent
management $40 900 900 might be OBJ
tanned for all the lands occupied and I'M
occupied west of the Arkansas river, and
that he was in favor of paying out the

the approval of the audience.
