Near this place, last Friday even-
ing, about six o'clock, OF paralysis,
Charles Salley, aged about 60 years.
Deceased was stricken with par
alysls week before his death. HIS
doctor and friends did all it was pos.
sible to do to keep away the grim de-
stroycr, and in his sickness he was
made as comfortable as was possible
by the costant ministrations OF kind
friends, but all was of no avail. Mr..
Sally was ono Of the old Californians.
Just what year he arrived there we
could not learn, but he was in Shasta
county in 1852. He arrived in this
Basin in the fall of 1862, being
among the earliest pioneers Of Idaho,
and was = true specimen of the
rugged, strong constitutional, hardy
pioneer, an industrious miner, and .
good citizen. One by one the old
pioneers are crossing to that mystic
land beyond the shores of time. The
past few years they have been rapid.
passing away, being now all past
the prime of life, and although they
we're hardy lot, age and hardships
are showing their impress, and IN .
few years more the great army OF
pioneers will have dwindled down to
mere hand full.
Deceased was born in the north OF
Ireland, but came to America whom
very young, and lived at Providence,
Rhode Island.
The funeral took place yesterday
afternoon.

Here is . characteristic article from
"Brick" Pomeroy's Advance Thought:
" And now comes the astute supreme
court OF Pennsylvania with decision
that marriages on Sunday are null
and void, because of the law that
contracts entered into on Sunday are
not binding on either party. If that
be so, the contract made by sinner
on Sunday to serve God rather than
the lower passions OF men is not
binding, and the converted one must
hang around tho depot till Monday
before he can get a ticket that will
be honored by the conductor. Ac-
cording to this decision children
projected on Sunday have no consti-
tutional footing that observers OF
contracts must respect"

let-up when the WoELD's forms were
locked for the press. We had rain
storm like this several years ago,
beginning on the last day of Janu-
ary. which continued for several
days, and More and Elk creeks were
higher than they ever were before, Ut
any season.. as far back as the
white mans history runneth, and
higher than they have been At any
time since. Bridges on the Basin
and Boise City road were washed
away, and the road itself was washed
out for several miles. History will
repeat itself this month il the rain
continues few days longer. The
water has worked its way through
the snow, the creeks are rising, and
streams are running in all the gulch-
es. The snow has settled from three
feet six inches to two feet. Yestsr-
day cellars were filling with water.
When U. P. Linvilie and family
Whose residence is at the upper end

water was six inches deep in all the
rooms of the house, and it soon arose

FfOEem - Death.
Boise Statesman.

Two young men, Henry Stevenson,
and Schoonover, who were employed
i'll chopping wood for Ben Ninemire
y short distance beyond the summit
of the mountain on the old Ryan
Wood road, were in town last week
and OH Thursday left to return to
their camp. A short distance this
side of the summit Stevenson gave
out and could go no further. AS he
was a stout, heavy man, his partner
could do nothing in the way of get
ting him along without help, so he
left him to 60 to the camp for assist
ance, and whom he returned he found
Stevenson unconscious and SO nearly
frozen that he could not be restored.
The rescuing party managed to get
Stevenson into camp, where he soon
after died. Deceased was from Kan
sas and was aged about 25 years.
He had only been in tho country a
short time, having arrived in Boise
late last fall. As the road between
the camp in the mountains and the
valley is filed with snow drifts in
many places, it was impossible to
bring the remains out for interment,
50 they were temporarily buried near
the camp to be brought out later.
