Rosebud gulch, near Osburn, and has
had considerable development work
done on it. The ore, so far produced,
is of high grade and clear. The
object of the newly organized company
is to own, acquire title to mining pro

Ole Noren, one of the owners of the
Sunlight quartz claim, near the Half
Way House, had quite thrilling ad.
venture the other day while hunting.
He wounded a large buck-hit it in
the shoulder-and in doing which had
used his last cartridge. The animal
was knocked over by the bullet and
Ole, believing it to be in its death throes,
approached with the intention of pre-
pairing it for carrying to camp. He
had no sooner got within reach than
the buck sprang to its feet, bristling
with fight, and viciously attacked him.
Having no weapons of defence Ole
grasped his antagonist by the antlers
when terrific struggle commenced.
1t was nip and tuck until finally the
man tripped the buck and together
they rolled fifty or more feet down the
mountain. They brought up with the
man on top, and after another short
struggle he managed to take his pocket
knife out and cuts its throat. Noren
was considerably shaken up and
bruised, but he was able to pack his
well-earned meat home.
Mr.. Albert Nolan was severely hurt
on the 23d at the Alturas-Senate mine
by a giant powder explosion. Mr..
Nolan was working with his pick
when he struck two and half sticks
of giant powder, left unexploded on a
previous firing. He vas thrown about
fifteen feet into a waste pile. This
was about 200 feet from the mouth of
the tunnel. After he was blown up
he felt about for a candlestick, got be-
tween the car tracks and felt his way
out. He was found by John Kelly,
foreman, who assisted him out and
dressed his wounds, picking out the
gravel blown deeply into his face and
body. His body was badly bruised,
black and blue all over, four teeth
knocked out, and his right hand badly
mangled. Messrs. Philbrick, Weaver
and Murray accompanied MIR. Nolan
to Ketchum and then took him to
HALEY, where he was promptly at
tended to by DIR. Brown. He fells
very grateful to Messrs. Philbrick.
Kelly and others for kind attention,
and under the kind care of Mrs. VIM.
Westman is now doing well. The
drum of his ears are affected somewhat
but he thanks God that he saved his
eyes. Without them he preferred
death.-Ketchum Keystone.

IN The INTEREST Of the BOYS.

There is an association in England FOR
the Improvement Of geometrical teach
ing. It is a kind Of organized rebellion
against the tyranny Of Euclid, who from
the revival Of learning, down to the
present century, has reigned with abso-
Lutte and supreme authority.
This association attempted to break
away from the thraldom OF the geomet-
ric despot few years ago by publishing
e. syllabus Of Plane Geometry, covering
the slme ground as The frs. six books OF
Euclid. But the boys were apprehensive
that this unknown and strange book was
an invention Of the enemy containing
new snd greater tortures than
they were forced to endure
from Euclid; hence the frightfully
named, II not actually frightful book
did not find favor. 1t met with repul :
sive suspicion, in fact, from the boys
who had been narrowed and bGrassed by
Euclid. They would not fly from the ills
they knew &c some new styles Of para
gogic pRrallelopipeds which they knew
not Of. Boys with aching jaws and
bursting heads would not venture into
ultried and dangerous polysyllabic con
tinents Of collaborated darkness without
further assurance Of personal safety than
the iitle of the book suggested,
/ Notwithstanding the fact that this
really meritorious society was founded
on tbs heretical conspiracy originating
in the conviction that the human race
had made some progress, not only in The
discovery Of new geometrie truths, but
also in the construction Of text books,
since the days when the boys Of
Alexandria played hockey to 60 fishing
and swore that their books were torn al
the square of the hypothenuse is equal
to the sum Of the squares Of the othel
two sides, or whenever any problem Of
an equally thrilling character happened
to be under discussion.
The Greeks are said to have had mucl
intelligence and great nobility of minC
hence it is impossible to suspect that
even the Greek boys submitted to Eu
cid with that passive suHrauce that the
teachers of all ages have delighted to
praise and point at with pride by way o.
mean comparison with their own victims
1t is probable, however, that the aensi-
BILE, independent real boys Of all agel
have considered teachers of geometry al
their natural enemies and have been burn
ing their Euclids on funeral pyres and re
J ligiously interring them during all tn,
successive generations Of boys since OLE
} Euclid lived, or about 800 years B. @.
] However that may be, the Society fol
! the Improvement Of Geometry should b,

4 trials they may discover something sim

r than Syllabus OF Elementary Dynam
les, just published in England. But
at present, the society has not mad

THERE is an unmistaksble drift away
from the Republican party. Many promi.
nent men have left the party and come
into the Democratic party Many more
are disgusted and disheartened and ready
to come though they have not the cour-
age to make the effort. There Is no doubt
that the pension legislation, the conduct
OF Reed, the Mckinley and the Force bills
have hed the effect Of weakening the faith
of honest and impartial men everywhere
It Is very evident that the party which
is under the domination Of Quay, backed
by Wanamaker and which finds expires
sion Ia Harrison, Reed rules, the depleted
Treasury and increased cost Of living Is
MOI calculated to win the confidence OF
increase the affections Of the people foI

sham and humbug, and an engine Of
extravaganza and corruption.
