A New Star for the Flag.

Wyoming's star will go upon the flag
two months from to-day, in accordance
with the statute provision that at the
admission of new State, a star shall be
added to the union of the national en-
sign on the 4th day of July next sue
ceeding.
Last year the people of Idaho had the
pleasant prospect of being admitted on
the 4th of July, and of being able to cell
ebrate together the birthdays of the
new State and of the United States. But
the President suggested to their Delegate
in Congress that signing little earlier
the act for her admission would allow
Idaho's star to go upon the flag on July
4, 1890, and so gain whole year for it.
That suggestion was accepted, and it
spoiled all the new flags that had been
prepared with fortytwo stars. 1t M ade
them incorrect and obsolete before they
had ever been used, except by patching
and alteration, and even when this was
done, it substituted for the forty-two
stars, so easy to group. forty-three stars,
which could not be arranged symmetri-
cally.
The War and Navy Departments strug-
gled some time with the problem of the
forty-three stars, and at last solved it as
well as they could bysn arrangement of
the flag which showed one star appar-
emily astray or out of symmetyr, and
that was the result for Idaho of Mr..
Harrison's unfortunate suggestion.
Now secretary Tracy, mindful of the
necessities of fagmakiDg, gives more
than two months notice of the way the
new union is to be arranged, with Wy
omiDg's star included

MINING NUGGETS.

The Ella, location owned by Messrs.
Connors, Ready and Ryan, is the East
extension of the Stoddard lode. 1t has
been prospected in two tunnels. At the
Southwest they have cut large vein.
A short tunnel has been run nearer the
stoddard east line, but the vein has not
been reached.
The Ohio, owned bv Frank Lepley,
East of the Stoddard mine, mas been cut
by two tunnels, the lower being 260
feet below the upper one. The trend
of the lode is different from that of all
other lodes on this side of the mountain,
being nearly due North and South.
Considerable ore has been shipped from
this mine to Denver, which brought
$500 per ton. Two millings of second
class ore, worked in Silver City, run $50
and 800 respectively. The mine has
produced upwards of 100000.

claims located East of the Ella and on

BOSSES RECEPTION.
The "Nuggets Representative Tells
What He Saw, Etc.


| ~~On'AS O%@ - ~%<sy " AOOAs
THE PRESIDENT WAS coHINa.
Had any person held doubts upon this
question they would have been dispelled
could he have beheld the streets Of Boise
yesterday morning. Upon every hand
were evidences of active preparation for
some important event. Laborers, me-
chanics and artists were busily engaged
putting the city in holiday attire. The
militia and iremen thronged the streets
in full uniform. At every corner, and
upon almost every building, "The Red,
White and Blue'' greeted the eye of the
observer. The very air seemed impreg-
mated with the essence of patriotism.
But, while the preparations of yesterday
could not fail to make an impression
upon the minds of all who saw them,
they were but the prelude of the events
of to-day.
The president has come-has gone
One remarkable point, showing the won
derful perfection of our railroad system,
is that the presidential party has always
been on time to minute. Their arrival
here was no exception. All Boise was
up early and saw the sun rise this morn
ing. And Boise was not alone Thou
sands of people from adjoining towns
from mountain camps and farms were
here and helped to swell the rustling,
surging crowd They were represen-
tative body of people that reflected credit
upon our young, growing and vigorous
state.
Upon the presidents arrival he was
escorted through the city by a procession
made up of the G. A. r., two companies
of militia, cavalry and infantry compa-
ny of the regular army, the different fire
companies and the carpenters' Union.
After riding through the city, he was
taken to the platform erected and beau
tifully decorated for the occasion. Here
the president made one more of those
neat little speeches which will make his
trip memorable. He commenced by pay
ing glowing tribute to the city of Boise
and state of Idaho. He spoke of our
great mineral resources, but reminded US
that, no matter how rich they might be,
they would eventually be exhausted, and
that in time we would be forced to de-
pend upon our agricultural resources for
our permanent prosperity. He addressed
a few appropriate remarks to the MEM
bers of the G. A. R. who were present
paid glowing tribute to the "Stars and
Stripes" and addressed few pleasant
words to the school children. After the
speech the president assisted in planting
a tree in the capitol square.
A rece ption was held by the president
in the capitol building and nearly every
person present improved the opportu-
nifty of shaking hands with "Ben."
Viewed from political standpoint,
there is no doubt but what the presiden-
tial visit was a success. His plain, un-
yet dignifed manner produced
q favorable impression upon all classes.
The greatest respect and honor possi-
BILE were shown him by the entire crowd,
but he was not received with that wild
of Western enthusiasm which
would have greeted his appearance, had
MS convictions on the silver question
been more favorable for free coinage.
The ladies' reception was held at Mrs.
John Sherman's.

Sim Boom, of West Bingham, has on
Turner creek a skunk ranch. 1t
consists of an acre on the bank of
the stream, with wall of masonry sunk
below the ground sufficient to prevent
the escape of the aromatic little crea-
lures by digging, and enclosed by
tight board fence. On this ground at
present he supports some seventy-fve
skunks, big and little, ring-streaked,
speckled and grizzled. Mr.. Boom pre-
fers the pure black ones, and is con-
stantly getting rid of those of mixed
colors. He is reported as being very
fond of his pets, freely handling them
at all times, and with confidence and
trust, which, we are told, has SO far
never been betrayed.-Potter County

DRAFTED IN BROOKLYN.
Grover Cleveland Improves the Occasion
by Making Speech on the Importance
of Instructing Our Children in the
Principles of Patriotism.

BROOKLYN, Dec. 2l.--The New Eng
land society OF Brooklyn gave a dinner
tonight in the assembly rooms of the
academy of music in commemoration Of
the 27lst anniversary of the landing of
the Pilgrims. Hon. Calvin E. Pratt,
president, presided. At the conclusion
of the dinner, President Pratt made q
brief address, after which the toasts,
President of the United States" and
"In memory OF General Sherman" were
drank in silence. Just at this moment
ex-President Cleveland entered, and was
greeted with storm of applause. On
being introduced, Mr.. Cleveland spoke
as follows:
'The pilgrims and their descendants
and all who celebrate Forefathers' day,
will fail in the discharge OF their highest
duty if, yielding 10 he temptation of
un-American tendency. they neglect to
teach persistently that in the early days
there was, and still ought to be, such a
thing as true and distinctive American
ism. This does not mean that the
spirit OF narrowness or prescription
should be encouraged. 1t does, how
CNGi, hltdA lLoihlGhCc llidO every lIdHS-
fer of allegiance from another govern
ment to our own, should sig
nifty the taking on at the same
time OF aggressive and affirmative devo-
ton to the spirit OF American institu
tons. 1t means that our government is
not suited to selfish, sordid people, and
that in their hands it is not safe. This
is time when there is a pressing need
for the earnest enforcement of these
truths, and occasions like this cannot be
better improved than by leading US to
such self-correction as shall fit us to
illustrate and teach the lessons OF true
Amercanism. With such preparation
az this, leaving no peace for the ignoble
thought that oGr government can, with
out pelvorsion, hold out unequal re-
wards and encourage selfish designs, we
shall teach that this heritage of ours his
been condded to the patriotic keeping
and loving care OF true Americanism,
and that this alone can preserve it."

Porter; Hon. Roswell G. Horn and Rev.

New YORK., Dec. 2l.-The Herald's
Valparaiso correspondent says: Minis
ter Egan today officially requested the
Argentine minister, Senor Urriburu, to
note the presence Of Chilean police
agents in the Immediate vicinity Of tho
American legation, and who also at
tempted the arrest Saturday night of
Frank Egan, the minister's son. Senior
Urriburu, in his diplomatic capacity,
will call a meeting OF the foreign minis
ters for the purpose of calling the atten-
ton of the Chilean government to
the action of the municipal authorities
in maintaining police surveillance over
the American legation.
An additional insult was offered the
American minister yesterday in the case
of one OF the refugees who applied for
release upon furnishing bonds, rs re-
Gently granted Balmaceda's minister OF
war, Valasquez. The government re-
piled that the refugee must first leave

self to the Chilean authorities, and sub
nit 10 imprisonment.

The government" continued Mr..
Spreckles. has made an offer for the
tugboat Fearless, which we are having
built at the Union Iron works, and
which, when completed, will be the
largest vessel Of the kind in the world.
Admiral Brown and other naval officers
have Inspected the tug and found she
could be fitted up as a torpedo boat with
two liye-inch rifles, four or five sixty
pound guns, secondary battery and
four torpedo tubes. The Fearless will
be completed in about two weeks. She
could make over sixteen knots an hour.

A Large Fleet of Transports at Uncle

SAN Francisco, Dec. 2l.-Among the
naval officials who discuss the Chilean
situation the impression prevails that
San Francisco would be the naval rem
devious for the United States in event
of war. The reason for this belief is
that Mare Island, in close proximity to
San Francisco, is the only navy yard OF
the United States on the Pacific coast,
and there is no dry dock on The whole
western coast, south OF San Francisco,
capable OF floating ship OF more than
5000 tons burden.
Interviews with prominent ship own
ers show that in the event OF war with
Chile, there are good many vessels on
the Pacific coast that could be converted
into troop ships or transports. Captain
Goodall, OF the we'll known firm of
Goodall, Perkins & Co., the agents Of
the Pacific Coast Steamship company,
the Union Pacifc's line OF steam
ers and other vessels, says:
"The government already has
the measurements and all other neces-
sary data concerning our vassels, and
plans were long ago made for the con-
version OF our steamers into troop ships
whenever this might be necessary. In
three days time our firm could furnish
transportation for 10000 men. We could
put into readiness within that time the
steamers Santa Rosa, Queen and City
of Pueblo, of the Pacific Coast Steam
ship line, and each vessel would accom-
modate 1000 men with accoutrements
and necessary munitions of war. The
steamer George w. Filler, of the Union
Pacific line, would carry 1900 men. The
steamer Al XII, now in the Alaskan
trade, and which was chartered by the
government as q transport for the rev.
enue cutters during the past season
in Boring sea could be docked here,
inside of a month, ready for 1900 men.
The steamers San Mateo and Costa RiCa,

pany, would carry 5000 and 1000 men

SAN FRANCIsCo. Dec. 2l.--The steamer
Corona arrived from San Diego and way
ports today. j. G. Bailey, cabin pas
senger on the vessel, was washed over
board and drowned by wave which
struck the vessel while crossing the bar.
James Carter, one of the passengers
is also missing and is believed to have
been drowned at the same time. All
the state room doors opening on deck
were closed before the steamer reached
the bar but some twenty passengers were
on deck. All of these were drenched,
and several had morrow escapes.
All the staterooms were flooded. Two
ladies who had opened the doors after
they We're closed, were bodily lifted up
and carried out on the deck. Nearly all
the passengers were more or less
drenched. Captain Hall of the Corona
stated that the trip from San Diego was
the worst he ever experienced. Bailey
was employed by the California I'm
provement company in Alameda. His
family is now in San Diego.

The State and Navy Departments Keep
Mum About ChtIe.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-The officials a
the state and navy departments observed
studied reticence today about Chilean
affairs. 1t is learned, however, that no
communications were received from
Chile by either department. since Thurs
day last, when the secretary OF state re-
ceived long message from Minister
Egan. While no positive information
can be obtained as to the character of
the message, it is said to have reference
to the refugees. 1t is understood that
no action will be taken by this govern
ment until officially advised by the
Chilean authorities as to the result Of
the investigation into the killing Of
sailors of the Baltimore.
