A Jaunt OF Pleasure.

A portion Of the press association
will long remember with pleasure an
incident connected with the first an
nual meeting. For this most pleas
ant episode on life's page they are IN
debted to the generous L. b. Perrine,
of Shoshone, who invited all members
of the press who so desired to take
free ride over his line to the far famed
Shoshone falls. This liberal invitation
was taken advantage Of by number
of the editors, among whom was the
fortunate SIGNAL man. We were
loaded into a handsome Concord
coach and drawn by four good, stout
steeds were whirled across the twenty
five miles of lava pain with the great
est comfort and ease. Leaving Sho-
shone at ten in the evening, on the
10Th, we arrived at the falls a little
after one. The cool evening air and
gentle rocking of the coach as We
sped along made il one Of the most
pleasant rides of our recollection; and
the gaily banded pleasantries and
the melodious voices of men and
women joined in song made the time
fly like the dream of few moments.
The following forenoon was spent in
drinking in the grandures of nature
in the vicinity of the falls. After
dinner all boarded the couch for the
Blue lakes three miles below. These
are the private property of Mr. Perrine
and he has made one of the most
glorious fruit farms in the whole west.
Right on the level plain is a great
hole at least 400 feet deep, shaped
like horse shoe with the opening
towards Snake river. The sides OF
this basin are beetling, perpendicular
walls of rock with but one possible
way of ingress, and through this Mr..
Perrine has engineered road which
winds and turns about the face of the
cliff in the most romantic manner, and
which would do credit to the most
skilled professional engineer. At the
bottom are two twin lakes 45. feet
, deep, so clear that a nickle can bt
seen at the bottom. They swarm witt
trout and from little distance appear
of the brightest and most peculiar
blue. In this basin the Perrin'
brothers have in $40 acres of fruit

pears and golden apples bend rip
and luscious from the boughs on ever.

to the markets. At shutdown til

Convicted, but Innocent.

Gov. FishbaclS pardoned Lee Burkett the other day.
 Burkett Vas t5nvlcied at Pine Hidf last year Tor the killing Of Pd Garner, an ] given term in the penitcntiary. The judge and prosecut- ing attorney wrote the governor that BurlIett was innocent of the crime. Hence executive oemency. Burllett and several companions were on drunken spree. when they placarded Garner one of their companions ''C. O. D., leaving him on porch. He sustained injuries from which he died. His companions thought the injuries were possibly due to their treat ment of him, and all pleaded guilty to inyolun- tary manslaughter and were sentenced to six months in the pcnteuiary. No application Il Tor the pardon of the others has been made.
