.sLIttre LORD FauntIeroy.,-

The Deseret Erening Netos of Salt
Lake adds this testimony to the worth of
the company:
Little Lord Fdumtleroy was pre-
scented at the Salt Lake theater Thursday
night. 1t was refreshing to witness a
play Of this character aud so well acted
after the indescribable trash that preceded
it. Fdunaeroy is a little drama full OF
touching incidents. A mothers love and
the purity OF an innocent child are sab
jects, the contemplation of which is not
only pleasing but strengthening and en-
nobling. The Francis company is com
posed of uncommonly clever actors and
actresses, Little George Cooper, who
had the title role was charming and ex-
hibited dramatic talent that must be con-
sidered phenomenal in a child of her age"

The semInoe Country.
fRawllns Republican,


Mr.. r. G. Mayor came in from Seminoe
Tuesday evening where he has been for
the past week. Four men have been at
work sinking a shaft in Mr.. Mayors mine
and are now down sixty feet and the ore
"a gold bearing auartz-is showing up
good. 1t was his intention to let a con-
tract for sinking the shaft thirty feet
deeper and would have done 80 while out
there but for an accident which occurred
Jan. 3.
The cabin in which the men have been
living was built in the Penn Mining COM
pany several years & at a cost of about
$500. The shaft IN which the men we're
at work is some distance up the noun
tain from the cabin and out of sight from
the building. While at work about noon
Sunday they heard shots fired in the d.
rection of the house and as there were a
number fired in quick succession the men
went to see what was the matter. When
they came in sight of the cabin it was
seen to be on fire and the fire was under
such headwav that it was impossible to
save a thing in the building. The winters
grub. furniture, ammunition, cooking
utensils and all the clothing except what
they had or was consumed. The total
loss is estimated at about 81. 500.
The burning of the building stops work
at the mine, and as the snow is 50 deep it
is impossible to rebuild at present, owing
to being unable to do any freighting Up
the mountain at this time. The men
came to town with Mr.. Mayor and work
will probably not be resumed until spring.
The prospects at Seminoe are looking
up more favorable than ever and in all
probability it will develop into quite a
lively camp next summer and a large force
of men be employed there.

Jan. 3, 1892 marks an important date
IN the history of Gold Hin. On that day
at the Downey mill the boilers were fred
up, and at noon the throttle was opened,
the machinery began to move, the pom
dcrous stamps began to rise and fall, aud
as the shrieks of the whistle resounded on
the air and we're caught up and re-echoed
from mountain top to mountain top. the
inhabitants of Gold Hill were made
aware that the long promised and pa
tieutly waited mill was An assured fact.
The starting up OF the mill was a signal
for much rejoicing, aud the venturesome
~prospector. the patient. toiling, industrious
miner, the sanguine capitalist and the
hopeful business man all Joined In the
hilarity, and the greatest excitement pre-
vailed.
While to the outside world the starting
of the mill signifies but little, to those
who have spent 80 much time. labor and
money in trying to bring to the light the
hidden wealth of Gold Hill. the event is
a most important one; as it will afford
them a sure means of ascertaining
beyond the shadow of a doubt the quality
OF the different leads on which they have
staked so much.

HE sLUGGED THE CLERK.
Count Commissioners Howl Does UP a
Drug Store EmpIove.

County Commissioner Geo. W. Hoyt
promptly and effectually paral5 zed an
other of his clerks last evening. 1t will
be remembered that Mr.. HOyt bodily
fired out one of his clerks some months
z because, as the facts showed after
ward, the said clerk would not let the
colored porter continue the playful pas
time of smuggling him with a lighted coal
oil lamp. In his stead he employed a
young man by the name Of III. A. Franz,
from Detroit, Mich, and last evening Mr..
Hoyt gave him the bounce. He also gave
him a pretty thorough drubbing. He
knocked him down, so Mr.. Frank says.
and instead of sitting upon him, as IN the
ordinary way, he kicked him and then to
cap the climax he threw him out of the
drug store and into the cherries street.
Frank at once went to the police, but as it
was late in the night the officers advised
him to wait until this morning and get a
warrant for Mr.. Hoyt.
Mr.. Hoyt was seen soon after the fight
by a LEADER reporter and asked for his
side of the story. He said: Frank was
drunk, and that made me mad. told
him to do something and he refused and
one word brought on another until he
gave me the id lie, and | him. That
is all | wish to say about the affair. |

Then he became r~eticent and suddenly

a friendly appearingyouDg man approached
Old Huck and seemed desIrOus of opening
up conversation. Old Huck was on his
guard at once. He had carefully avoided
oil chance acquaintances, and did not pro-
pose to be taken in by any gold brick or
bunco operator-not a bit of it.
Il suppose" said the unabashed young
man. you have come down here to Gray

Huck, not having the faintest idea what

This fiattering suppOsition was sufficient
to break away the barrier of suspicion,
and Old Huok at once told that young
man he not the General, but Demo-
crat from Indiana. As be stood looking at
the farm house light broke in upon him.
The fat man on the porch with a palm-leaf
fan was ME- Cleveland and the house was
the famous Gray Gables.
Rapt in beatitic contemplation he gazed
and gazed. The young man. who by this
time had pulled out a notebook and was
making rapid sketch of this visitor from
afar asked other questions. but they were
UNDECIDED. Adoniram was trying to make
mp his mind to climb the fence and ap-
proach this august presence He had even
placed one foot on the second rail and
hooked his elbow over the top rail to carry

porch for the first time seemed to be aware
of his presence. Adoniram put his foot one
rail higher. As he did so the man on the
porch rose, turned his back full upon him
and went into the house.
'Ge-oshw said Adoniram. He said no
more. There was no more to be said. The

A Summer Night

A Summer Night
I stood meath the low-leaning lindens at night;
Their shadows lay black on the banks of the
stream,
But out DER the water the mellow moonlight
Lay scattered in many a silvery CLEAN.
The soft summer breeZes had fallen asleep,
The aspen that grew on the opposite shore
Stood wrapt in a silence as peaceful and deep
As that of the ghost of the dead sycamore.
whip-poor-will lone from the thicket beyond
Repeated her plaintive and sorrowful call;
The frogs answered back from the marge of q
pond,
And sadly an owlet replied to them all.
The frefiies danced VIII ere the sedges grew rank,
The cricket sang low In the grass at my feet,
The ripples lisped love to the pebble-strewn bank
In murlnurous melodies. tender and sweet.
An odor of roses stole down from dell,
A bat like a vaerant went wandering by,
And earthward from heaven meteor fell,
A gem that an angel had dropped from the sky.
And long, long fingered. nor needed how long,
Bare-browed to the kiss of the dew-laden air,
Entranced by the night minstrels mystical song,
And charmed with the beauty surrounding me
there.
