The World Enriched.

The facilities of the present day for tn.
production of everything that will con-
duce to the material welfare and comfort
of mankind are almost unlimited and
when Syrup of Figs was first produced
the world was enriched with the only
perfect laxative known, as it is the only
remedy which is truly pleasing and re-
freshing to the taste and prompt and
effectual to cleanse the system gently in
the Spring time or, in fact, at any time
and the better it is known the more pop.
u1ar it becomes.

A Most Valuable Agent.

H. ARMGASDT, M. D., 95 JACK
son ST., BROOKLYN, N. Y, writes:
"Being familiar with the stimu-
lating, healing and anodyne properties
of ALLCoCK's Porous PLAsTERs,
commend them as a most valuable
agent in the class of diseases for
which they are intended. The sti'
mulating action when worn over the
gastric region materially aids in res
toring strength and energy to digest
ION, and the consequent building uf
of tissue and restoring tone to the
general system"

MULDOON.
A CAMP THAT WILL BOON NEXT
SPRING.
Three Mine Properties Showing Ore.
BOdies-A Road Wanted.

~ AHO0O V00ItOs
In the early 'SOs Muldoon was
camp Of considerable Importance. 1t
had smelter, and three or four com
panies operated there. The returns
being unsatisfactory, the companies
suspended operations, and the camp
went down. The 800 or 400 inhabi.-
ants dwlndled down to about dozen.
These last we're stayers, however.
Some owned ranches as we'll as min.
ing claims, cultivated their land in
summer, and mined in winter.
Their perseverance seems about to
meet with its just reward. People
are again coming, the claims are show.
ing we'll, and the ranches are yield
ing fairly. There are some 60 male
inhabitants in the little valley at pres.
ent, several hundred tons of hay are
in stack, and over 5000 bushels of
wheat aud oats were harvested this
year.
The Telegraph claim, owned by
, Steve Winchester, is showing three
feet of solid gaiena ore, q trial ship
ment of four tons of which, just made
to HALEY, Melted the owner an aver.
age Of sl0S per ton. Mr.. Winches.
ter has been working this claim nine
years, and has shipped enough ore to
pay expenses. Now, however, he has
good body OF it.
John Lief also owns in a claim
which is showing up we'll. Last sum.
mer he began making a trail to his
claim and unexpectedly cut into ore.
He then tunneled to the vein, and ex.
tracsed eight or ten tons which remain
on the dump. Mr.. Lief and three
partners will work the claim all wins
ter, and begin shipping ore as early as
possible in the spring. They have
already laid in their winter supplies.
Andrew johnson owns the Snow
slide and the Ironclad both of which
promise to open into bonanza. Last
year he sunk a GO-foot shaft on the
Snowslide, and struck bunch of ore.
Last spring he tapped it with tun.
mel, and found good body of ore.
He will have some ore to ship mex,
year.
There is therefore no doubt bu,
that Muldoon will have good times
next year. And if the County Com
missioners would only endeavor tc
give the people there a road, the in
vestment would be paving one fo'
the county. The people there say i,
is nearer to HALEY via Quieley Gulct
than by any other way; and if the
county will make road to the sum
nit the Muldoon and Little Woo
River people will complete it.

S4,229 SOULS.
This Is the Population Of idaho, Ex.
elusive Of Indians.


elusive Of Indians.
An advance copy OF the Census
Bulletin giving the population of tho
United States by States and Terrific
ries, is received.
The population of the United States
on June l, 1890. as shown by the
first count of persons and families,
exclusive of white persons in Indian
Territory, Indians on reservations,
and Alaska, was 62,4S0,54O. These
figures may be slightly changed by
later and more exact compilations, hut
such changes will not be material.
|" 1880 the population was SOLOS,
7S3. The absolute increase of the
population in the ten years interven-
ing was l2,324,757, and the percent
age of increase WAS "a 81. In 1870
the population was stated as $685.
37l. According to these figures the
absolute increase in the decade be.
tween 1870 and 1880 was II, 5O7,4l2,
and the percentage of increase was
3O.OS.
Upon their face these figures show
that the population has increased be-
tween 1880 and 1890 only 727.345
more than between 1879 and 1880,
while the rate of increase has appa~
rently diminished from so 0S to 24.57
per cent. If these figures were de.
rived from correct data, they would
be indeed disappointing. Such
reduction in the rate OF increase in
the face Of the enormous immigration
during the past ten years would argue
a great d;minution in the fecundity OF
the population or corresponding in
crease in its death rate. These figures
are, however, easily explained when
the character Of the data used is un.
derstood. 1t is we'll known, the fact
having been demonstrated by exten.
sive and thorough investigation, that
the census OF 1870 was grossly def
cient in the Southern States, so much
SO as not only to give an exaggerated
rate of increase OF the population be-
tween 1870 and 1880 in these States,
but to affect very materially the rate
of increase in the country at large.
The population of Idaho IS stated
at "a, 1923, against $3.50 in 1880, and
1899 in 1870. The percentage Of
increase during the decade from 1870
to 1880, was 11741, and during the
decade from 1880 to 1890 it was
15s.29. Only five States show a
larger percentage Of increase. to-wit:
North Dakota, whose percentage is
3o4.26; Washington, with 5000 per
cent; Montana, with 236 so per cent. ;
South Dakota, with 233 .63 per cent. ;
and Wyoming. with l9l,45 per cent.

PETERSBURG, 1Np, Nov. IA terrible
conhagration occurred at Winslow, a
town Of Pike county, this State, this
morning. The whole town has been
wiped out Of existence. The houses
were NIL frame structures and the fire
spread with such rapidity that all the
efforts Of tho people to cxtinguish it
proved unavailing. Not house is
left standing, and four hundred
persons are left homeless. There
Is no fire department, and no provision
was made for such a sudden calamity.
How tho fro originated hss not been
ascertained, but 1t is supposed to have
been caused by a defective tlue. Several
OF the houses were close together, and
once the fire had made some headway
1t was impossible to isolate 1t. There
will be much suffering among the people.

The case Of the city OF Moundsyille Va
John Henrietta, Sr., in the Circuit Courl
was dismissed on motion OF the defend.
ant at the cost Of tho city. The result
OF tho case has prompted tho organiza.
ton OF a law and order society, which
will probably reach out over the entire
county in Its efforts to suppress the II.
legal sale OF intoxicating drinks, The
Moundsville council granted license to
the defendant, among others, 10 sell
spirituous. liquors, etc. and he was
summoned before Mayor Purdy, charged
with selling liquor to a minor in viola.
ton OF section . Of chapter 10, OF the city
ordinances, which makes 1t Unlawful for
persons having city license to sell or
give spirituous liquors., etc., to mjnore.
The Mayor found him guilty aud assess.
ed a tiue OF SEQ aud costs, and the cnse
was appealed to tho Circuit Court. The
defendant, by his counsel, ], Z. Hooten
moved the Court to dismiss the case, at
the cost OF tho city, upon the grounds
ihat the city had no authority to grant
license without the consent OF the Coun.
ty Court, which had been refused.
The charter Of the city, in giving its
council power to grant license for tho
sale OF spirituous liquors, has this pro.
vision: "The council Is hereby vested
with the power OF granting such license.
porvided the consent Of the county
court is had AMI obtained therefor.b
me question Of granting license was
submitted to the people at tho city elec.
tion, and majority OF votes were cast
IN favor OF license. But upon applica.
ton, the county court refused 10 give
its consent. Nevertheless, the saloon.
keepers asked Council to grant them
license Notwithstanding the adverse
action OF the county court, and the
council did 50. The city was represent.
ed by ,. B. Evans. who, upon inquiry
from Judge Campbell il he had any.
thing to say against tho motion to dis.
nlss, stated that he was member Of |
the city council when the licenses were
granted, and then urged before that
body that they could not grant such
license without the cansent of the
county court, and that he was still of |
that opinion, but desired the court 10 |
decide the question. The Judge took |
the matter under advisement and final |
ly decided that any license by the city |
to sell spirituous liquors, ETC., without |
the consent Of the county court was
void, and the case was dismissed.
! Upon learning Of the decision, Rev. @. |
B. Graham, OF the Simpson NJ. E. church,
J. w. Bodley, G. A. Weaver and others
Immediately set about organizing a law
and order society to close up the saloons
and stop the sale OF cigars on Sunday.
One hundred aud fifty dollars were con.
tributed in few hours to fund for that
purpose, with plenty moro,in sight, and
there is trouble in store for law-breakers
in Marshall county. There are about

master General Wanamaker has directed
Postmaster Sherwood, OF the Washing.
ton postoflice, to suspend Mrs. Margaret
s. Watkins, a clerk at the general dcliv.
cry window, for using offensive language
toward Richard Quay, the son Of Senator
Quay. OF Pennsylvania. The circulated
account Of the affair has it that the
young Quay asked for his fathers mail
at the delivery window, and some one
standing near remarked: .'He's dead.
1t goes to the dead letter office now,,"'
and Mrs. Watkins, who was on duty at
the window thoughtlessly repeated the
remark. Mr.. Quay, it is said, seemed to
regard the matter as joke at the time,
and walked away smiling. Postmaster
General Wanamaker says that Mr.. Quay
told him that some one of the clerks at
the delivery window said that his father
was dead and that his mail went to the
dead letter Office. He Immediately or
dered the suspension Of the clerk until
IN investigation could be made. Su.
perintendent Bell, Of the city delivery,
admits that he made the remark which
Mrs. Watkins repeated.

the alleged offence. from Mr.. Bell, Super
intendent Of Delivery, at the city Post.

delivery clerk, were submitted to Post.
master General Wanamaker by Post
master Sherwood today. 2 z
Mrs. Watkins statement agrees with
Mr.. Bells as to the circumstances, that
when Mr.. Richard Quay called for bis
fathers mail, she asked ia the office
where Mr.. Quay's mail was. Some one
who had been reading the election news,
replied, I'm the dead letter Office" She
repeated the words seriously to the gen.
tleman at the window, but did not in
tend any discourtesy whatever.
Further investigation to ascertain the
name OF the clerk who made the remark
will be made. Mr.. Bell said the alleged
offensive remark was merely a pleas.
antry, not intended to reach the ears Of
anybody outside the Office. .-5.g.

crat, and when he found that his debtor
was harming the Democratic party he
notified him that unless he quit he
could have no more goods, and further
than than he would sue him for the
debt" This threat was enough to put
quietus on the Republicans ambition,
but the Democrat was not satisfied with
that, for on the day before election he
began suit for the debt and would not
hear to an extension OF time until the
Republican consented to vote the
straight Democratic ticket. The suit
