Commissions on Emigrant Tickets.

CHICAGO, ILL, Nov est remains to be
seen whether the transcontinental lines
will obey the order of Chairman Walker OF
the Western traffic association limiting
commissions on emigrant tickets to 3
from Chicago, and 81 from
the Missouri river to California.
Some OF them make no attempt
TO conceal this dissatisfaction and declare
that if the order is obeyed il Will shut them
business lines outside of the association.
This, they admit, must be avoided
to some extent. or their Eastern counec-
tons will enter into some arrangement TO
divide the business so that they can get
share of it. The order is one that puts ths
strength of the association and the power
of the commissioners to severe test

Administration Loyalty.

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S.-The selection of
Minneapolis as the place for holding next
years Republican convention may not be
the only political honor in store for the
loyal and enthusiastic Republicans in the
Northwest. The statement heretofore pub
ished to the effect that the president is
considering the ACCESSIBILITY Of promoting
Gen Lewis A Grant, assistant secretary
of war, to succeed Secretary Proctor, is
Endorsed by private dispatches received in
Washington to-day. It is sad that the
president and cabinet advisers think it
would be good stroke of policy to give
some striking illustration of the administra-
TONS loyalty to civil service reform, and
that the appointment of Gen. Grant would
also be much more popular in 4 political
way than that of Ex-Governor Cheney of
New Hamsphire.

and a great deal of development work
is being done on many quartz proper
ties. In all the Couer d'Alenes new
finds are reported as usual at this sea-
son of the year. Some bonds are given
and few sales being made-notably,
the Morning mine, belonging to Charles
Hussey, and for good figure II reports
are true, viz, SeO0, 200, which will en-
able the firm to pay up their bank fail
ures of last fall, in full.
Another sale of gold quartz property
in the the Bald mountain district was
purchased by Charles w. O'Neill, our
district attorney. We did not learn
the full terms, but know $1,000 was
paid in cash, which promises q bona
fide sale. The property is on the north
side, up the east fork of Eagle creek,
where there is some good promising
placer mining ground, worked by Sid
Mills 4 Co., for q year or two with
profit. We hear the Barton property,
eight miles east of Murray, Is being de
veloped by Col. Haskell and q Sau

Albatross, tell the Astorian that when
ingly thin, and was all but starved by
his experience on Numivok island.
Mr.. Petrof had arranged with sea
captain in 1850 for taking the census of
the island. There are 900 semi-barbar
GUS natives there. The island is dreary
and rock-bound, and about 130 miles in
circumference. 1t lies in the heart of
Behring sea and is little frequented by
whites. The sea captain failed to keep
his promise and Mr.. Petroff concluded to
take the census himself. He was car
ried upon the revenue cutter, and it was
ordered to call again in a month and
take him off. He found the natives
quite hostile. When they found he had
not brought money to trade with them
they would not even give him hut to
lie in.
He bought skin-boat and some pro-
get rude hut.
In this he stored the purchases. One
night most of his belongings were stolen,
besides his gold spectacles. Then he
loaded up what he had left for trip
around the island. He was out two days
when storm came up, overturning his
boat and he had to swim for his life. He
could not see very we'll and had hard
time to reach the shore. There he met
more natives; he was refused anything
to eat. For two days he had nothing
except berries. Finally he succeeded in
getting around to where he started, and
by this time the natives were somewhat
friendlier and supplied him with little
food.
When the Corwin picked him up he
was nearly starved, and was yet quite
thin when transferred to the Albatross

Col. Boone, who is now in this coun-
try exhibiting his horde of performing
lions, which are performed free and un-
muzzled in circus ring is accompanied
by female lion trainer-a Zion queen, y
as the show bills style her. Her name
is Millie Carlotta. She is not over
twenty years old, and is said to be as
brave as she is beautiful. She enters the
enclosure accompanied by her noble
patrol dog Saxon" and to see her in the
arena surrounded by half a dozen
thousand-pound, lordly lions, directing
their movements with as little apparent
concern as IT they were a lot of harmless
cats, makes the spectator shudder for an
instant. Col. Boone is authority for the
statement that women are better adapted
Tor performing with wild beasts, than
men. Be this as it may we will not con-
troyert the remark made by a lady, who,
upon hearing this statement of Col.
Boone's suggested that this was fact
and that only a woman was capable of

Carlotta drives the lions harnessed to
char1ots, feeds them from ber hand,
makes them posture, dance, leap, play

answered that he received it in very
curious way, and told the following
story in regard to it:
l got that wound in the battle of Get

and felt very tired, and so Shutdown on a
rock and shot from there
I was just loading up my gun when a
long, lean, lank fellow 'darted by me,

The dead man had bullet in his

that both wounds were made by the
