THE czAR1NA WHEN A BRIDE.

except on official occasions 1t was to his
younger brothers, Vladimir and Alexis,
that he left the duty of representing him
at all other times by the side of his future
wife.
1t is surprising that a marriage thus
contracted under the very shadow of death
should have resulted in such unailoyed
domestic bliss. There is 10 royal or i'm
perial couple in Europe whose relations
toward one another have been SO uncloudsd
since their marrisge. The cZarina has
learned to love and admire the sound and
sterling honesty of her huge, bury and
rather narrow minded husband, and is
wholly wrapped up in hin-never leaving
him, and acting rs his guardian angel
That henahection and devotion is returned
with IL Hrest by the car is conclusively
shown ~ the fact that he alone of all ths
Prinss either past or present, Of his house
,bSs7snaintained a strict and honorable OBJ
servauce Of his marriage vows.

of lead, poured a handful of powder in
his gun, and then a handful or
so of sluss. Thus loaded he proceeded to
crawl to where he saw the geese light.
Rising up he saw something moving. which
he thought was big black gander, and
blazed away. The gander dropped, as did
two of its companions, but when he reached
the spot he was Mortified to find he had shot
three neighbor boys, John Van Sickle and
his little brother and JEFF Stevenson. The
Van Sickle boys are seriously, but it is not
thought fatally, hurt. One, perhaps, will
lose leg. Stevenson was struck in the
side with slug, but he was only slightly

NOSE KEMPNER came in Wednes-
day from the New Eldorado, the other
side of the More creek summit. The
tunnel running to tap Noses ledge is
in 10S feet. He thinks it is within
20 feet of the vein. Dunn has sunk
a shaft fifty feet on his ledge and has
taken out about FIVE tons of ore that
will mill at least 400 ounces silver per
ton. The silver is mostly in the form
of chlorides. Dunn is also pushing
work on his tunnel to tap his ledge at
the depth of 500 feet. This tunnel
will he 500 feet in length. 1t is now
in over 100 feet.
Nose visited Banner. He says the
Wolverine mine on the 500 ft. Level
is immensely rich and the ledge is
twelve or fourteen feet wide, all pay
ore. The Wolverine is now turning out
the richest ore ever taken out in Ban
ner district, even surprising the rich
ore of the famous Banner. The VOL.
VERNE is mammoth ledge, while the
Banner vein is small.

In Salmon Meadows, March 10, 1891,
OF congestion Of the lungs, Lydia, beloved
wife of Calvin X. White, aged As years
and months.
Deceased was resident of Centerville
years ago, moving from here to Garden
valley with her husband, where they were
engaged in farming. They moved from
Garden valley to Indian valley and from
there to Salmon Meadows twelve or thir-
teen years ago, and there amid the smiles
of nature and the melody Of mountain
winds they made themselves home con-
genial to their tastes They have had
many trials and there are chapters in Mrs.
Whites life during the Indian wars that
would read like romance, and through
it all she bore herself courageously until
it would seem her struggles were crowned
with success. Hopes fruition was bud
ding into bloom when from ou, the starry
darkness came a spirit of Peace and
touched her eyelids and she slept.
She leaves husband and eight chill
dren to mourn, to whom their old friends
here send sweetest sympathy.
"Oh anguish vainl There is
No plea to move
The tyrant heart of Death;
No respite, won with agonies
Fen such as Love and Grief approve,
With sobbing breath.
Not all earth's tears the hand could
stay
That digs grave to-day"

SWEET, March %. 1891

Id. WORLD: Once more I will
try to give YOU a few items from
Squaw creek.
Salmon made their appearance on
the gath. They are very good
"muck.a-muck." Come down and
get one.
Every one has been blowing for a
week, up to Friday the 9th, when
rain began to pour, and when the
poor Granger woke up Saturday
morning the hill was covered with a
thin coat of the beautiful.
This is fine country for stock.
There can be no estimate made of
the loss, as cattle are dying in the
hills every day. The owners can't
tell their losses. Cattle made their
appearance from Boise valley on the
25th, to the number of $50, and the
men who drove them in say there are
800 more on the way. They report
quite number of dead cattle and
horses on this range. Every stock
man complains of big loss of young
calves. So that's one crop that will
be short.
1t is reported that the Indians IN
the Dry Buck country are killing
deer by wholesale, but if white man
should kill one or two the law would
hop on to him like the wrath of the
Almighty on to sinner.
Jerry Dill has small force of men
on his ditch. This ditch is taken out
of Squaw creek. 1t will be about SIX
miles long when completed. He is
also fencing in quite tract of land
adjoining his main ranch.
The Liberty mine has young mi
ner about ten days old; that is, we
mean there is new baby at Mrs. No
lans about that age. The boys say it
shall have $50 carriage in honor OF
being the first child born in the Lib
erty camp.
The Halfway House, or the Blaz-
ing Rag, is nearing completion near
Mr.. Dill's farm. So the boys will moi
have to go so far to get "6re water
There is very little water in the
creek at present; fordable most any
place, something uncommon for this
time of year.
Well, when l find something tc
write about you shall hear from me.

A CORRESPONDENT on the other
side Of the Basin sends us the follow
ing items:
Bishop Glorieux's mother died a
few days after his arrival in his ma
tive town in Belgium. He was very
lucky to be able to talk to her and
give her his Episcopal blessing before
she died. In Granite Creek solemn
service of requium will be kept next
Tuesday, April 7th, by the Rev. Faith
er Hendrickx, as a remembrance of
the sad event.
On St. Patrick's day and on Easter
Sunday the church in Granite Creek
was filled with vast concourse of
people of that place, Placerville, Gar
den valley and Quartzburg. All lis
tened with great satisfaction to the
sermons of the Rev. gentleman. The
music was very fine, the Mass OF
Wernert in G being sung with great
precision. The duet of Regina Coeli,
by Lambillotte, was beautifully rem.
dered by Miss Mary O'Brien and Miss
Mary Rotthier. Mss Josie McDev-
lit and Miss Theresa Connaughton al
so took part in the singing very eff
ciently.
Mr.. Thomas Gibbons died in Plao.
erville last Thursday, March 26th, and
was buried the next day. Father
Hendrickx conducted the services al
the house and at the grave. In the
house he gave very touching ad
dress to the bystanders, almost all o.
whom could not refrain from weep
ing.
The new church in Garden valley
is ready for dedication. 1t is nice
little chapel, we'll built and finished
by John Flat. The old beautiful bel
of Pioneer has been put in lovely
little belfrey built for that purpose
The day of conservation will be an
nounced by the pastor.

LAST Wednesday morning there
was a great commotion among the
business men of the town, and taking
signs in front of business places as
prima facia evidence of the business
conducted within, led to much con-
fusion. Strangers in need of groceies
and other necessares of life called OH
the WoRLp office, and with much mis-
givings and puzzled looks inquired
for sugar, -four, peanuts, and other
articles of necessity and luxury, and
those who had heard of the great
moral educator and palladium of lib

Davis Brothers and put down the cash

THE Trustees of this school district
have given notice of a vote to be
taken on April 11th "for the purpose
of deciding whether or not special
tax of six mills on the dollar shall be
levied on the taxable property of the
district for the purpose of building a
a school house" Eight hundred dol
lars were raised by a tax last fall, and
only very few votes were against
the tax. The people thoroughly
awakened to realization of the fact
that the old school has outlived its
usefulness and saw the necessity OF
building new one, and there is every
reason to believe, from the interest
now manifested, that the vote on the
1lth will be as near unanimous for
the proposed tax of six mills as was
the vote for the tax last fall.
The building is to be 26x3S feet
and two-story, and will be con
strusted on the site of the old school
house.
