TEXTILE GOODS.

The Hebrew holidays caused the
usual decrease in sales oftextile goods;
the cholera scare has diverted many
buyers from New York and it is be-
tween seasons for woolens, but deal
ings are still large. The outlook in
woolens is excellent and sales of wool
improve here and at Philadelphia,
where the consumption is greater
than in any other year, though some
concessions on territories and Ohio
decline are seen at Boston. At three
markets 223,0O0,000 pounds have been
sold this year, against 1s9,0o0,00O last
year to date. Trade in knit goods is
hesitating.

The rock from the mine on Willow
creek, owned by Gus Schlosser and Ben
Emery, crushed in Smiths mill, at
Centerville, yielded $50 per ton. AS
the ledge is a very wide one and the
ore easily worked, the gold being free,
they certainly have fine property.
The shaft from which the ore was taken
is down 2S feet. Willow creek is sure to
soon become great gold quartz min
ing district, as there are several mines
in that locality fully as rich as the one
from which the ore was worked. Some
of those interested are talking of putting
up a small mill.-Idaho World.

On Wednesday last robbers wrecked
q train on the Santa Fe road in the hope
of securing ST. 100000 being taken from
the City of Mexico to Boston. They
loosened one of the rails throwing the
train down an embankment. Four
men were killed and between thirty
and forty passengers more or less in
jured. The money was so buried be-
meath the wreck that the robbers could
not get at it. The iends who 80 deliber-
ately imperiled the lives of hundreds of
innocent people, should be followed to

when captured should have their eyes
taken out and the brand of Cain placed

Evolution Produced by Sci

Remarkable Evolution Produced by Sci
entific Breeding.
ID. e. Crawford, of the United States
fish commission, recently said to a
Philadelphia Press man:
s'We have little doubt now that be-
fore two more years we shall have
evolved what the seaboard public has
been clamoring for for so many years
the boneless shad. Of course, / don't
mean shad that is actually boneless,
but one that will be to all intents and
purposes as boneless as the founders of
this country or the sole of England.
This will have been accomplished
by the cross breeding of the shad, the
founder and peculiar jellyfsh, which
is q staple food among the seacoast
natives of Japan. The commissioner
had much difficulty in securing a sup
ply of these jelly-fshes in a healthy,
living condition, but at last managed
to bring about one thousand one hum
dred of them to San Francisco, and
thence to the Chesapeake Bay hatchery
in tank cars. They have thrived amaz-
ingly, and our experiments, while at
first rather discouraging, now leave but
little doubt of turning out successful.
sAt first the crossing resulted in the
production of a lot of jellyfshes with
an elaborate outfit of bones, which was
just what we didn't want; but time
and study showed us our mistakes, and
now we have few hundred haff-grown
shad with less than eighteen per cent.
as many bones as the ordinary sort.
Yes, as you say, science is a remarkable
thing"

men with millions behind him. and be-
guiles prospectors into bonding their
property, under the suspicious pretense
of working bond, to him for year or
more, and ties it up without guaran-
tee of doing the assessment work, is not
only public injury but a nuisance that
should be abated." Yet the woods are

ment down or surety on contract, put
on an injured air and say: "Oh, that
is not business ~ Well, why not? If

done. 1t would be required in any
ether line of business.-N. w. Mining

Mr.. Joseph McAffee, of Boise City, re-
Gently informed the Commonwealth
Journal that he has, in connection with
other gentlemen, secured !, 400 acres OF
land along Snake river, about twenty
Eve miles frcm Mountain Home, which
is to be worked for placer mining. Wa
ter will be obtained from the Bruneau
canal now under construction, and the
best modern methods will be employed
to save the flower gold. Mr.. McAffee
estimates that this ground will average
thirty cents per yard, although some be-
lieve that it will far exceed this guam
tity. As soon as water is brought to the
land active work will begin. The OUT
look is in every way encouraging for
big results from this and other similar
enterprises along the great river of
Idaho.

| The races at Silver did not develop
any great speed so far as horses were
concerned, or draw very large attend
| ance. There was much delay in getting
the races off and five or six days were
occupied in completing the programme.
The foot races Sunday attracted the
most attention. The one between H.
Stevens and Caldwell was hot
ly contested, Stevens winning by two
feet-dstance 100 yards. The event of
the day was an impromptu foot race be-
tween Masters Con Dewey and Ben
Hunt, two kids of nine or ten sum mers.
Con sold fret in the pools and his back
ers gave odds of 500 to $75 on him and,
to their sorrow, got up about $500. The
youngsters got good start and ran for
blood. AT no time during the race of
fifty yards was there foot difference
between the boys, but Con held the
lead little until SO near out he thought
he had won and made q jump for the
tape which proved his defeat. He failed
to quite reach the string. while Ben. who
kept steadily on, touched it just in time
for the judges to give him the race.
There was as much applause, according
to the crowd, as when Nancy Hanks
broke the record Hats were thrown in
the air, the winner was carried about
on the shoulders of strong men and for
tho time pandemonium reigned. The
hackers of Ben took him to the store of
new suit of clothes, underwear, a watch
and other articles, and doubtless he will
now train every day for sprinter.

Last Saturday night large number ot
the friends of Mr.. and Mrs. Isidor May
er, gave them most agreeable surprise
party, the occasion being the twentieth
anniversary of the marriage of that
couple. The party gathered at the res
idence of Mr.. Charles Sebree, and While
Mr.. and Mrs. Mayer were down to the
store they went quietly over and took
possession of their handsome home. A
messenger was then dispatched to the
unsuspecting victems, telling them that
their daughter Gertie was quite sick,
their presence was desired at home at
once. OF course they lost no time in 60
ing, but instead of finding sick daugh-
ter, they found house full of extreme
ly healthy friends. The surprise was
complete, but they soon regained their
wonted composure and proceeded to en-
tertain their unlimited guests with that
freedom and grace that comes only with
experience. An elegant lunch was
served during the course of TIE even
ing, it having been prepared by Mrs.
Sebree. The guests left number of
handsome presents as slight testimo-
nial of their esteem, which were pre-
sented by DIR. Maxey in neat speech.
1t is the wish of all their friends that
they may see many more as happy
years as the twenty that have gone

sent an object lesson outside of their ep-
idemic aspect. 1t will be noticed that
this ship or that ship, with 500 or 200
steerage passengers, is anchored at 30
and so. 1t is a forceful reminder of the
stream of steerage immigration which is
pouring its degradation onto our shores
to rot and disease our body polite. The
voter of America does not realize that
we are adding more thar one-h half mill
lion foreign souls to our population
every year. In proportion about equal
to pint of filth to bucket of pure wa
ter, every year witnesses spe ewing
forth from Europe of humanity's refuse,
which America can ne more assimi-
late than can a stomach feed on asa
foetida.
In 1891 535, 900 immigrants landed in

ton amounting to 5,424; of this batch
upwards of l 400 were Italians Scandi-

and that the leaks threaten to overflood |
and drown out the Americanism Of our
institutions. Let US try total exclu-
sion for while. We have done it with |
the Chinese-let us do it with other ma
tions. 1t will give Us q chance to get
our breath and in the meanwhile to de-
