Tom Ross left Ketchum yester-

mine on the Lost River divide.
Considering the isolated situation

working the mine single-handed
and alone, and is an evidence Of
remarkable pluck.
A BOISE paper says that it looks
as if there would be very few flow

kept by a few ladies through the
winter. An Easter without flowers
is hard to imagine.
