The Ketchum keystone. [volume] (Ketchum, Idaho) 1885-1899, 1891-08-29

SAM WILSON, Frank Wells, Ster-
ling Tucker and gentleman named
McGregor, lately arrived in town
from Nampa, were out on Wood
river grouse hunting last Friday,
and came upon an old she bear and
two cubs. The cubs were small.
but the size of the mother made up
for this in the minds of the hunters
whose quest was of grouse only.
But MOTTO exaggerate, after discuss
ing the situation and counting noses
they concluded to assault the ene-
my, there being four Of them and
only three of the bears. Accord
ingly positions were chosen, Frank
Wells and Sterling Tucker station
ing themselves well up among the
limbs of a couple of friendly trees
in order to be able to overlook the
scene Of the affray and avail
themselves of any advantages that
might offer during it's progress.
Sam and McGregor being on horse
back cautiously advanced on the
foe, carefully keeping tree between
themselves and the bruin family.
They were armed with shot-guns,
loaded with No. 8 shot, and when
they had approached near enough
Sam uncautiously opened fire. This
outrage greatly offended the mother
bear, who Immediately and furious
ly charged her assailants. But here
the stories of the hunters begin to
diverge. Things become mixed as
it were. Sam says McGregor climbed
a tree to reconnoitre, and McGregor
says it was Sam. Wells and Tucker
were taking observations but have
not reported, so We can only state
general results. One Of the cubs
was finally captured and brought in
alive, but died during Friday night,
probably from having been over
heated in the combat. The other
was killed and served to adorn
feast at Bakers. The mother bear
escaped-so did the hunters.

Fortunes That Are Coming Out of the
Ground Out There.
A Western Congressman gives the follow
ing glowing talk about the new mining re-
gions of Colorado: One of the best of the
new regions is that about Aspen. 1t will
produce more than $4,000, 900 worth of ore
this year. Leadville produces an average
of about $4,000, 900 annually. 1t some
times rises as high as $4,000, 900 and some
times falls as low as 1000, 900, and this
average OF production has been kept up for
more than IL years.
The mining region of Colorado is practi-
cally inexhaustible. New mines are being
opened every day and L doubt not but that
more than S35. 200, 900 will be turned out
during the next twelve months. 1t
is admitted that there are S11, 900, 600
worth of ore in sight at Aspen. One OF
the most successful miners in the West is
Dave Moffdr, the man who was bulldozed
out of a fortune by a man at his bank at
Denver not long ago. He owns the Frank
lin, which is paying very well. The
ore of this mine is of high grade. and a
wagon load of it has been worth rs much as
$26, 900. The Smuggler is good producer.
The Molly Gibson looks like jewelry shop,
the silver is so apparent. Henry Gillipsie,
who went out to this region on snow shoes,
made fortune out of the Spar and the
Smuggler. and he had $4,000. He lost all
this, and then got an interest in the Molly
Gibson, which is now worth $500, 900 to him.

ARSENIC ON THE WALLS.

Evidence That the Boston Homeopaths Got
Excited Without Cause.
Philadelphia gpholsterer.l
The death of Samuel C.. Cobb, of Boston,
which postmortem examination discloses
to have resulted.from cancer, was rather a
surprise for the Homeopathic Medical So
ciety, for they had used his case as an e1-
ample of arsenical poisoning. They agltated
the subject rather lively, and brought for
ward many imaginative folks who knew
that they had been poisoned some time or
other by the arsenical green in their wall
papers, curtains or carpets, and they ap-
piled for legislative protection. and asked
that law be passed prohibiting the use of
this poison In manufactures. Now, how
ever, the 20 leading American manufact-
urers of wall paper take oath that they do
not use arsenic in any way. One of these
manufacturers writes:
"Since the days of burning witches
there has never been a more ridiculous
scare. Wall paper dealers the world over
have never suffered. Statesmen who are
continually handling wall paper never fall
victims to its insidious poison. Color mixers,
many of whom have for a half century or
more spent their entire waking time with
bare arms to the shoulders in colors, mixing
them and stirring them up continually,
never suffer, although these same men not
infrequently eat their lunches with hands
loaded with colors. Again, arsenic is one
of the most expensive materials that can be
used for producing these color effects, and
for that reason, if for no other, it would not
be to the interest OF the wallpaper manu-
facturers to use it. when cheap substitutes
are easily obtainable."

Trnnhles of a Rich Man.

I'll you had sny idea of the many incon-
veniences of what the world calls wealthy
you would never ask such foolish question
as Does wealth bring happiness?'" said
CYRUS W. Field, the father of the Atlantic
cable and fifteen times millionaire. First
of all, the-e are the begging letter-wrIters.
Once let people think you are rich, and be-
fore year has passed you will have received
from people you never heard of before re-
quests for loans, gifts and offices of profit
sufficient to exhaust the combined patronage
of all the lord chancellors Great Britain
has ever had and to break the Bank of Eng
land.
"a rich man must live constantly in the
public eve. Privacy is a stranger to him.
The people want TO know more about him,
and the newspapers TEEN with paragraphs
telling how he opens his letters. what he has
for breakfast, and even how he puts on his
trousers and shoes. An incognito is an i'm
possibility for him. Everybody knows him,
and his entrance into shop is the signal
jor an increase Of 25 per cent on everything
he desires TO purchase.
"IIis reputed wealth makes him more or
less an object of envy to everyone not so well
OF, and he is very apt to be annoyed with
threatening letters from Socialists and
cranks, if not actually made target for
their bullets. The whole life of Baron
Nathan Rothschild was made miserable in
that way, and the late William II. Wander
bllt is said to have received many such
letters.
These are few of the many reasons why
the answer TO your question, Does wealth
bring happiness?' must be a decided neg

Thus he whiled away few days, but be-

the idea of doing this occurred to him. he
accepted it as an inspiration. He occupied
two days very pleasantly discussing with
his wife the question whether to paint tine
house a reddish brown to remind them Of

decided to paint the back and front yellow
and the two sides brown. Then Alphonso
mixed his paints on the lawn; siung his lad

for an occupation. Bred to life OF perpet-

primal curse by the accident of an inherit
ance.
His daughters found practicing on the
piano an agreeable substitute for household
work. They enjoyed it much more than
their neighbors did, for what they lacked in
skill they made up in energy. But their
rny-hsnded sire was too old to get his
exercise in the requirement OF graceful ac-
complishments. He needed something
searching. Trimming up the trees around
his house afforded him a relief which was
small compared to the misery inflicted upon
Van Alpines and Rcche-Joneses by the
spectacle of their new neighbor, clad in mis-
rustic garments, seated on a limb and chaw-

much for those in the surrounding grounds.
