Meeting Of the St. James.

On last Monday, according to announc-
ment, the st. James consolidated Mining
company held its annual meeting at the
Office of the HERALD. The officers
chosen for the ensuing year are the fol-
lowing: Frank Marion, president
George w. Brown, vice president; c. D.
Ladd, secretary; E. X. Abbott, treasurer.
Measures were taken to do about
$1,000 worth of work on the property
this summer, and of this f. J. Sanford
will have the direction. The ground
owned by this company lies principally
on the Snow creek side of the ridge at
the head of Rock creek and consists of
three claims-St. James, Absolute
and Lady Shalott. The st. James
and Absolute lie side by side
and join the end of the Fair
play. The whole area is desirable
ground and the company will doubtless
show up something good with its pro-
posed development.

Tho Concerto Entertainment.

On Tuesday evening a company of
local talent gave a musical entertainment,
and a handsome audience appeared. 1t
is on such occasions that to "A generous
degree the interest Of citizens in a public
benefit is displayed. The program was
rendered much as previously arranged,
except that zone oh dem coons" had
acute tonsilitis and another could not
get his banjo tuned; without these omis-
sions the whole effect might have been
worse.
The ladies acquitted themselves well
in. speech and song. But the difficulty
of singing or speaking in an unfinished
hall is too we'll known to require COM
ment. Mrs. Bryant and Mrs. Vigus
were f~avorite performers. Bryant and
Coale are duo of good singers.
Prof. Bryant's speech was intensely
interesting, and the plantation orchestra
performed with genuine African grace.
The local jokes went badly. Most of
them fell without cracking, and the
one about Port Angeles had to be hit
with Il club. One of them escaped
through the Audience and has not yet
been apprehcnded. Parts of the pro-
gram were productive of 'that tired
feeling" so prevalent in the early sum-
mer months. In respect of novelty,
however, it may be called a success, and
we are sure the Methodist people feel
highly complimented by the fine attend
ance, and thankful to the Neihart Cornet
band for its voluntary services. The
church organ is paid for.

A Discussion About Eggs,

A heated discussion about eggs took
place in a down town office and an argu.
ment as to the price resulted in a Del
monico dinner. One of the d~isputants
maintained that eggs cost him 5 cents
apiece. another declared the price to be
4 cents, while a third insisted that they
were selling at al cents a dozen. The
Scent man said he referred to Long
Island eggs laid yesterday, whereupon
the third man undertook to prove that
the hens did not lay yesterday; it was
too cold! The discussion brought out
the fact that ''limed" eggs are worth
about two-thirds as much as strictly
fresh Long Island eggs" If an egg has
a soapy taste, it is a "limed" egg-that
is, it has been packed in lime.-New
