there is in force an unconstitutional or

Wild arrested for ignoring this enactment.

vice-all parties breeding to him to
be held personally responsible for

Whitefoot was foaled April 9th,
1887, at Modestown, Va, is of bay
color, with white feet, we'll broken,
very handsome and weighs 1855
pounds. He took first premium at
the Eastern Shore Agricultural Fair
as the finest 3 year old, the next year
as the fastest year old and in 1872
was winner OF the $40 class.
He was sired by Walker Morrill,,
the greatest speed sire that ever was
in Accomac. 1t is useless, however,
to say anything about pedigree, for
"pedigree without performance is
nothing saws Tine Kentucky Stock
Farm Whitefoot will test his speed
qualities with any stallion On the
Eastern Shore.

A Woman Who Knows Not What Feay Is
A Uniontogn correspondent sends o
bit of the history Of Mrs. Taylor Oliver,
which shows that the puck exhibited by
that fearless woman during the murder
Gus attack upon herself, her husband
and her daughter has been Characters
tic of her during life. The story is aa
follows;
Many years ago Mr.. Daniels, the father
Of Mrs. Oliver, WAS what was kno~n-st
that time as q slave driver. During that
time no incurred, Of course, the hatred
of the negro race. After freedom, and
when Daniels was living with his funily
in Jefferson county, q band Of negroes
determined secretly to murder him and
his entire family. A night was selected
and pax y visited kis housc'in the dead
Of night and made an attack.
Daniels defended himself as best he
could, and 51rs. Oliver, then II years OF
age, shouNered gun and took posi-
ton BY the side Of her father. h the
lnelee thepc was great loss OF life, and
when the smoke Of bstsle had passed
away seven dead negroes Summed upthe
loss on the attacking aide. and none OF
the Danielscs was injured. Mrs. Oliver,
1t Is said, did the best shooting, and hex
shots were more effective than those Of
her father. She does not know whet fear
is, as she has proved In her reoens and
most lying oxleal.-Henderson CLEANER.

Idaho semi-weekly world. [volume] (Idaho City, Idaho Territory) 1875-1908, 1893-08-29

H. w. JOHNSON came in last Fri
day from Lily h,ning mountains, thirty
miles below the lower end of Bear
valley, and twenty miles north of the
mouth of Sulphur creek. He found
good gal-na float in there in 1889
aud in 1890 found the ledge and To-
Gated a claim, the Alma. He has
sunk shaft forty feet deep and has
vein of galena six and one-half feet
wide that will average from so to
90 ounces in silv, r, $40 in gold and
40 per cent lead. Assays have run
as high as 800 ounces in silver, but
these were assays of picked speci-
mems. The average is good enough
Mr.. Johnson's location is about thirty
miles from The line of the State wag-
on road. The float of this ledge was
found ten years ago by VIM. Norton.
Before he died he made map of the
country with descriptions of land
marks. With the aid of this map and
descriptions of the country Mr.. John.
son was not long in finding the float
and tracing it to Its source.

question

A. w. Dunn visited the Edna a
couple of days ago. He says the
tunnel has just struck the west end
of the chute, between 200 and 30t
feet vest of the shaft. The vein,
which was a very small seam where
first struck-merely a marker-has
widened to four feet and carries some
silver. 1t is expected that in a few
days high grade silver ore will be
reached. The vein has not been fol-
lowed either way from the shaft,
which was sunk to the depth of sixty
feet, showing a solid vein of high
grade silver ore eight feet wide. A
20O-foot chute of such ore would
make the Edna one of the great silver
mines of the State. 1t is very proba-
BILE that the chute also extends east
from the shaft. This mine is in Bea-
yer district, on the North Fork OF
Crooked creek.
