VIC BORROWER, the jovial Sho-
thone lawyer, was in ketchum last
Monday, and made this Office a
pleasant visit. Vic had just re-
turned from the Worlds Fair, and
came up to Ketchum in company
with Judge E. S. Dundy and son,
old acquaintance of his from Ne
braska, who have gone over to the
Sawtooth lakes hunting and fish
ing. Judge Dundy and party have
especial car to carry their stock
and outfits. Mr.. Borrower did not
90 with the hunting party, but left
for HALEY Tuesday morning.
A HAPPY throng Of children were
present, Monday afternoon, at the
residence of Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. j.
Lewis to celebrate the fourth birth
day of their little son Isaac. There
were seventeen little boys and girls
present, and they were gracefully
entertained by the little host, as
sisted by Jack and little Crawford.
Little feet tripping to the sound of
merry tunes, little faces upturned in
gleeful laughter, and little mouths
doing justice to sweets and dainties,
and jolly games, all told story o!
delight that closed too early for the
happy little guests.
Hon. E. B. TRUE, after several
months visiting in the East, a por-
.lon Of the time in Washington and
Chicago, has returned to Haley.
Mr. True, being interviewed by a
Statesman reporter on his return,
SAID: The silver question is great.
iy agitating the people Of the east
and 1T is his opinion the trend OF
public opinion in that section is
inevitably in the direction of free
Coinage. Thousands of people there
are in favor of silver, but dare not
give utteranoe to their views, being
completely in the power of the gold
bugs. No one can foretell what
congress will do, bat think the
unconditional repeal of the Sher-
man act cannot be accomplished.

A NARROW ESCAPE.

A young drug clerk who desires his
name withheld from publication had
a very narrow escape from death
while hunting ducks at Eagle Lake
Sunday He was in boat with
companion and attempted to climb
upon the Minneapolis & st. Louis
trestle, dragging his gun after MIN.
The trigger caught and the charge OF
shot passed in front OF his face, cut
ting hole in the rim of his hat and
in the top. His forehead was filled
with powder, which was picked out
today. So near to his head did the
shot pass that some of the young
mans hair was shot off. Had the
charge passed little closer to his
head he would never have known
what hit him.

+. DIED WHILE HUNTING.

Coroner Shoemaker received tele-
gram from the constable at Vernon
Thursday to come on the first train
and hold an inquest. He went on the
evening train and returned this
afternoon. From him we learn that
a Young man named Hall Gates and
some companions, of Waseca, were
hunting near Amboy yesterday. On
approaching the carriage the other
parties found Mr.. Gates lying on the
whiffietrees dead. They had not been
over thirty rods away but had heard
no noise. The horses were not
frightened. The coroner was sum-
moned, but did not find it necessary
to hold an inquest. Mr.. Gates had
been subject to fits and it is supposed
that he died in one of these.

A SAD DEATH.

Last Monday the eight year old son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Ed. /. P. Staede.
named Edmond, fell from an apple
tree while picking apples with other
boys. He crawled out upon a little
limb, which broke and let him down.
He fell upon his head, but seemed to
be uninjured and was about as usual
until w Wednesday night, when he was
suddenly taken sick. Drs. warner
and Harrington were called, but could
do nothing to save the child's life,
and he died at five o'clock Saturday
afternoon. He was a bright ana
active child, though somewhat deli
cate, and gave promise. OF auseful
future. The afflicted parents have
the sympathy of their many friends.

INTEREST BEARING ORDERS.

The debtors of the city dc. not take
kindly to the proposition of the coun-
Gil to issue interest bearing orders,
due July lst, 1894. The police all de-
cline to take these orders. Many of
the merchants also state that they
will not accept them in payment of
bills. The trouble seems to be that
no one has yet been found who will
discount the orders for cash. If it
were possible to convert them into
cash there would be no difficulty in
floating them. 1t is thought.that the
banks will soon do this. There is no
better paying or safer investment than
these city orders, bearing eight per
cent. interest.
The argument has been advanced
that the city can as well borrow the
money and pay the bills in cash, as to
give the orders to people who are de-
pendent upon their salaries. If this
could be done the council would be
very glad TODD so. but thus far it has
had very poor success in borrowing
money, having secured only about
$500.

the ErudIfe spiders Are Tsii-Enders.
The baseball season closed with Sat-
urday's games and the Petersburgs are
the pennant winners. There was little
ecIat accompanying the triumph, for II
was almost settled fact several weeks
ago From the very start the Cockade
City put a team in the field that could
out-play any OF its antagonists, ana
its MANAGEMENT never seemed 10 lack
funds to supply untitled positions win
good material. With the Virginlas ana
College the policy pursued has been some
what different, and they were forced our
ing the summer to figE with many dls-
advantages. The Forest Hills were also
better of financially than the clubs on
this side Of the river.
This season, however is the nrst that
anything like a league has been tried,
and the managers were inexperienced.
They have now been taught by that aolest
OF teachers-experience- and next season
will be far better qualified to make bet
ter arrangements and give the public
better grade Of ball playing.
This summer some of the prettiest
games ever played in Virginia have taken
place. but they have been exceptions. the
general run OF them have been poor OK
hibitions of the possibilities OF the ma
tional game so far as good playing is con-
cerned. There were five other games 10
