GEORGE BIDwELL, who is cutting
wood about mile and a half south
OF town, near the Thorn Crock Ditch
company's reservoir, found bee tree
the other day, the first ever discov-
cred in this section. When George
chopped iato the hollow tree and
struck the comb he congratulated
himself on striking a bonanza of
sweetness, but on examination he
found the comb empty. There were
good many bees in this section two
and three years ago, and two or three
bee experts got the course of these
little busy bodies as they sailed off
with their loads of honey, and locat-
ed them about right, but could not
lind the tree. George said if the
comb had been full of honey he would
have had at least fifty pounds. Tho
bees had cleaned out the honey and
then all died.

The Silver ledge of the Washing
ton mine was tapped just at tho end
OF the pay chute. The cross cut
clipped small piece off the west end
of the chute. A drift is following
the ledge, which is now four feet wide.
The lowest assay made was over for.
ty ounces. There is now about three
hundred and fifty feet of stopping
ground above this level. 1t was
tapped in the 200-feot level Of the
shaft, but the shaft was sunk in the
bottom Of the guloh, $50 feet below
tho groupings of the ledge. The sill
Yer vein was cut on the 100-foo lev.
ell, and also in a tunnel run in ON a

been done anywhere on this vein, the

Senator Blackburn addressed the
Senate on the 9th inst in advocacy of
Senator Stewards amendment for
free coinage. He was not willing to
have it go to the country and world
that the amendment was simply an
effort by the representatives. of the
silver States and that the rest of the
country was Indifferent to the results.
There was not silver mine within
the limits of the great commonwealth
OF Kentucky and yet he ventured to
assert her people were as united, as
earnest, as honest and as clamorous
in their demand for the free coinage
of silver as were the people of Colo
RADIO, California, Idaho or Nevada.
The opponents of free coinage might
rely on the veto power of the Presi-
dent, but that would prove a vain re-
lance. He denounced the anti-silver
policy of every administration for the
last twenty years. 1t did not matter
to him that his own party was for four
years responsible for the enduring
wrong. Cleyeland's administration
was just as amenable to criticism and
censure as its predecessors or it's st,c-
cessors.

n Lively Time Mt Jordan Valley.
Caldwell Tribune.

taldweH tribune,
Last July two young men, by the
names Of Norcross and Hubbs, came
to Jordan valley and hired out to
stockmen. They seemed to be quiet,
orderly fellows, aud soon had the
confidence of the valley. Confidence
is somewhat shaken now, however.
Last Wednesday night there was "a
dance at the Jordan Valley house and
both gentlemen were there. Nor
cross was in the BARRIERS chair and
Hubs was patiently waiting for the
cheerful cry of "next," when in
walked two deputy sherifIs fron Cal
ifornia and ordered them to throw up
their hands. Norcross pulled a gun,
placed it against the sheriff's breast
and pulled the trigger, but the weapon
failed to go off. A scuffle ensued
and the sheriff attempted to shoot his
man, and succeeded in taking his
mustacho off slick and clean, be-
sides finger of his own hand.
During the melee Hubbs escaped,
but Norcross is IN custody. Shoot
ing was promiscuous. A bystan-
der, Pat. Murtha, was shot through
both legs, and cream pitcher was
shot out of the hands of q waiter

This is to certify that about Nov. 1st,

ing, caused by handling hides of cattle
that died with the black-leg. My legs
were terribly swollen, and burst in sew
eral places; my body and arms were al
so badly swollen, and my skin was dry
and scaly. l was treated by the best
medical talent at home until May Ist,
81 when went to Gueda Springs and
took baths of Mr.. Buckwalter until MAY
18th. without any relief, when put N.Y.
self under the care of DR.. Davis, at his
sanatorium in Gueda Springs, and at
this date consider myself as good as
cured-haYing gained 20 pounds in

ASSESSED VALUATION OF BARBER COUNTY.
Normal Reunion.

A reunion of the normal pupils was
held at the courthouse Monday night,
which was a very pleasant affair.
While the room was not crowded, near
~ every seat was occupied, and many
persons were in the halls-more than
enough to fill all the seats. Our band
played couple Of their choice selec-
tions on the street, then marched to the
courthouse, where they gave the assem-
bled teachers serenade which was ap-
preciated by them, judging from their
enthusiastic applause.
A half hour was pleasantly speut by
the assembled teachers and citizens in
making acquaintance, and in renew
ing old friendships, before the pro-
gramme Of the evening was commenced.
The first thing on the regular pro-
gramme was music, by Miss Nellie Cur.
RE, yiOlinist; Miss Jennie Currie, or
ganist, and MIR. Charles Painter, cor
netIst. The novelty of a lady violinist
was sufficient to hold the audience in
closest attention, but she had not exc
cuted many bars before it was seen that
she was the mistress of the instrument.
Her playing was splendid, and she was
well supported by the organ and cornet.
When the music ceased the audience
set up such enthusiastic and long con-
tinued applause, the musicians were
compelled to favor the audience with
another selection, which was also we'll
received.
Mr.. II. S. Lands then delivered a
short address of welcome. His appear
ance before any body of teachers in Bar
Der county is alwaysa signal for APP
plause. He has worked in the harness
so long and so successfully that every
teacher looks to him as a sure and safe
guide. His address was short, pointed
and we'll received.
Prof. Gridley was called on to respond
to the address of welcome, and he did
so in very pleasant speech of half an
hour. He reminded the teachers of
their duty to the school and to the pa
irons, and also reminded the patrons
OF their duty to the school and to the
teachers. The patrons came in for
most of the advice, and we believe they
most stand in need of it.
Next came song, Nearer My God
to Thee" by Miss Lena O'Bryan, &C.
companied on the organ by Mrs. A. L..
Noble. The selection was very pref
ty one, and was we'll rendered. Miss
Lena's voice is improving every day.
Next came pretty musical selection,
by Misses Currie and Mr.. Painter, on
violin, organ and cornet, and the reun-
ion was at an end.
Prof. Beeson moved that q vote of
thanks be extended to ali who had con-
tributed to the pleasant entertainment
of the evening. The potion was car
ried without dissenting vote, and the
meeting stood adjourned.

fell last Wednesday night. There was
considerable thunder and lightning, and
very liberal supply of wind accom-
panying the rain, and slight touch of
hail made itself known. The wind
twisted the new government sugar ex-
detrimental building about six inches,
but did not move it beyond its fOunda-
ton walls. 1t was easily moved back
into its proper position. Our crops
were not needing rain. but no harm was
done. In fact tits almost impossible to
have too much rain. Our soil drinks it
as fast as it falls, and retains it till
needed.
