Strike OF Silver Lead Ore Reported
From the Clark's Country
In Idaho
The Recent Rich strike ON the Jumbo, In

ital In Mines.

A correspondent of The Boulder Age,
writing from Alhsmbra, says Of the mining
outlook in shat vicinity:
Coon And Bijolfson have q few men Al
work on the Mountain Dream lode, whioi
they recently bonded from p. Fellican,
Dick Punches and Andy Rhoren made a
gun play on East and Norris and run them
of the Ida May. which is near the Noun
tain Dream lode. Sam Punches relocated
the claim, claiming that the description
was not sufficient to hold it.
Ed Ellis and Deal Bros. are taking out
some very nice galena in sinking . shaft on
she Grand View lode. They are down at
present about thirty-fvs feet and expect 30
strike a good chute of ore st sixty fe ct
deep. The boys are having hard rock to
contend with and are exerting every energy
to gain the prize.
Jesse Carver and two boys from Helena

leads and lave some very Moe looking
quartz. and feel confident that all they need
V developments to make them equal tho
Willard properties.
Joseph Kastner made another big clean
up in his placer diggings on Mill creek. and
besides about $500 in gold dust he found
some very nice specimens Of rubies and
sapphires.
About two miles northeast OF Clancy, on
Strawberry culch, the Axe brothers are
opening up some placer ground by q bod
rock Hume. They can find good colors in
= pan and expect to make it paw as
soon as they can get bedrock. They also
have a good silver lead they would like to
lease and bond. They shipped sixteen tons
to Omaha, which Melted them $500 after
paying freight and smelter charges. The
ore chutes are small, only from i've to six
inches above water level. The formation
is granite, the ground is easy to work, and
there is not much water to contend with
hol0W water leysl.

VIM. G. SCANLAN, the actor, has
lost his reason and is now an inmate OF
an lunatic asylum. Such was the brief
announcement by telegraph from New
York city last Monday-a fact that will
cause tinge Of sadness wherever the
name and fame of this charming IRISH
American actor had reached. For one
so young, in the particular role which
he assumed, few men have reached a
higher eminence than he. Seaman was
comedian IN all that the term implies,
witty, bright and impulslve, with plenty
Of dash and OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES produc-
ing plays Of the purtst comedy without
anything coarse or uncouth to mar their
effect. And who has not heard him
sing and not been captivated? ''Peek-a
boo'' will be remembered as having
been one of his choice gems. Poor
Seaman! His speedy recovery to perfect
health will be devoutly looked for.

IRISH AMERICAN: The will of the
late William j. Florence, the we'll
known and long popular Irish-American
comedian, is the latest addition to the
list Of illustrations of the folly of those
who, having devoted their lives to the
accumulation Of worldly wealth, in this
life, imagine, that. at their death, they
can dispose of it to suit their own ideas.
Florence, who was childless, made a
will leaving his property to his wife
(who had faithfully helped him to earn
it, IN case she should survive him;
and she, In like manner, made will
bequeathi7g her interests to her hus-
band, should he outliYe her. Florence
Is dead; and now a host Of relatives
dispute the validity of his will. and seek
to set It aside. So that they may share
in the distribution OF his wealth-as
though he had died intestate. The ul-
innate result whatever it may be. will
probably rebound chiefly to the benefit
OF the legal counsel on either side.

future controversy in which Rev. Mr..
Morey may be engaged concerning
schools he will state facts as they are and
not as he would wish them to be. he
will in this way confer favor on the
public and honor himself Now what
answer has Rev. Morey to make to this
reply of the Archbishop? The facts are,
that Mr.. Morey and his fellow kickere
are not half so much troubled about the
Faribault and Saltwater people as they
are over the fact that the nuns are re.
tanned as teachers there. That is what
is troubling these men. but they dare
not come out squarely and say SO. They
do not want to see Catholic teachers IN
the public schools, and it breaks then
blgoted hearts to think that these nuns
draw money from the state. They earn
every dollar they get as all teachers do
who attend to their business. School
teachers like newspaper reporters are
not paid in proportion to their services.
Let us hear from Mr.. Morey once more.
By degrees he may summon up courage
to tell the public the real cause Of his

THE Minneapolis millers are much
puzzled to know how to raise the car
blockade. The roads east Of Chicago
are in very bad shape, and unless some
thing is done very soon the Minneapo-
lis mills must shut down for want OF
cars. The big crops were too many for
the railroads, and though all the roads
doing business with the Northwest
added hundreds OF cars to their stock
on hand, still there is great shortage.
It is said that the yards in Chicago are
filed with loaded cars which must be
sent out very soon, or business must
take a rest for few days. It is to be
hoped that the Eastern roads will move
more rapidly in the future than they
have in the past two weeks. Ihe situa'
ton will be even worse when the corn
crop begins to move.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 2, 1862.
W. J. SOANLAN I'LL.

w. J. Seaman, the popular Irish &C.
tor, is very Ill in New York, and may
not recover. On Christmas night he
was stricken down with paresis, and his
physicians say that, in all probability
he will never play again. This lis in"
deed sad news. No lover Of the true,
bright, Irish comedy would ever grow
tired OF Scanlan on the stage. He was
good actor, and played the Irish char"
acter to perfection, Recently he made
tour of Ireland. and everywhere he
went standing room was at q premium.
BE is one of The leading Irish actors on
the American stage to- day, and the fin
est critics OF the day seldom found fault
with his acting. He played the leading
parts in SHANE Na-Lawn" and "Myles
Aroon,'' besides several others, the two
named being his favorites. This year
the new play, "Mavourneen," was writ
ten for him, and he was playing this
when he became sick. This play was u
decided success. and for 100 consecutive
nights he presented it to crowded houses
at Fourteenth Street Theatre, New
York. AS a composer he had few equals;
besides being good singer his appear"
ance added much to his good acting.
He composed all his own songs, and
sang them we'll; he was the author OF
.Peek- -Boo,'' which IS 80 widely
known. We trust that the worst has
been told of his condition, and
that he will soon be able to resume his
trying duties.

TIE Republican papers are trying to
make it appear that Congressman Mills
and his friends are sulking and that
they will use their influence in the
house to make Speaker CrisD's position
as uncomfortable as possible. That is
not 80. Mr.. Mills promises to devote
his time to any and all bills that may
come before the committee on interstate
and foreign commerce of which he is
chairman. He will also be heard on
the floor Of the house after the holiday
recess has closed. The man from Texas
is too good Democrat to do ANYTHING
that would hurt the party Of which ne

Wis, dated December 26, announced
the following glad tidings to respected
citizen Of that busy town: &C. E.. Elan
merry, city constable, IS made mill
ionaire, if reports received here to-day
be- true. Seven years ago Flannery
says he bought some mines in the C0ur
d'Alene district, and lost all he had IN
trying to develop them. He came here
two wears ago, and never expected to
hear from his Idaho investment except
in the wav OF liabilities. A few days
ago his former partner offered to buy
his land interest. Flannery thereupon
asked for information, and Thursday
received an offer of $15O.0O0 in cash for
his holdings. He contemplated closing
the deal, and was about to leave for the
West this morning, when a friend tele
Rraphed that syndicate was found to
purchase the deserted mines for big

Boston REPUBLIC:--The conduct of
elections in England, Ireland and Scot
land has always differed from that to
which we are accustomed on this side
Of the water. Election day is holiday,
day when the operations Of the ordin-
ary law are suspended. when freedom
of action is granted to the electors.
There is in every case more or less fac.
ton fighting. In London, Liverpool,
Manchester and Leeds, as vel! as in
Dublin or Cork, broken heads are fire.
quent. Nobody thinks of burdening
the cable with a recital of the events
that produced them. But if street
brawl occurs at an Irish election the
whole American press is informed OF
the fact. There is no more reason why
the Irish people should be adjudged in
capable of self-rule on this account
than there Is to claim that free institu-
lions IN America are failure because
of the Malta associations in New Or
leans, the Pennsylvania and st. Louis
labor riots, the dynamite enterprise of
Norcross or the deliberate murder of
his brother by Isaac Sawtelle
