A Birthday Souvenir.

Last Tuesday evening, while we
were sitting in our sanctum sancto-
rum and the new born moon was
dimly outlined in the azure heavens,
and the mist yelled sun was slowly
sinking behind the snow-capped
mountains in the west, and while
our thoughts had fitted off to the
land of the fig tree and pomegranate,
where the wind don't blow and the
snow don't snow, we were once
more reminded that Father Time
was still marching on and that an
other year had rolled around, plac-
ing many mortals one step more
nearer the top of life's hill. Many
have passed over and commenced
their journey down the other side,
while many more have reached the
foot of the hill and passed from
sight into Mother Earth from
which all came and to which all
must return. The vision that awoke
us to the realities of this life was the
appearance Of Miss Josie Perkins
with her usual birthday bouquet
for the KEYSTONE. For a number of
years, in fact since her residence in
Ketchum, Miss Josie has made it a
custom, and very pretty one, too,
of presenting this office with bou-
quet OF wild flowers on her birth
day-April 18th. These flowers
are gathered by her own hands,
though sometimes when the season
is late, like the present. Miss Josie
experiences much trouble in finding
wild flowers, which are only to be
obtained on the mountain side from
which the snow has melted.
Tuesday was Miss Josie's six
teenth birthday, and her appear
ance with her annual floral souve'
mir, with still two feet of snow on
the ground, was pleasant surprise
and while the flowers were pretty
and sweet they cannot compare with
that pure beauty and gentle sweet.

human flower just blooming into

Death Of "Nick" Hickey.

The following letter in answer to
one written by James Judge inquir-
ing about the death Of Nick Hickey
explains ITSELF:
BANNING, CAL, April IL, 1893.
James Judge, Ketchum, Idaho.
DEAR SIR: In reply to your let.
ter of inquiry regarding the death
of Mr.. Hickey. l would say that
Nick Hickey died in this town on
March 23rd. He came here some
time in December, and though quite
sick, appeared to hope that this
climate would "brace him up"
During the rainy season that fol-
lowed his arrival he went to Yuma
(Ariz. where be rapidly ran down in
health. He realized that his days
were numbered and came back to
Banning, as he expressed it, to die
among his friends.
We all became acquainted with
Mr.. Hickey and have nothing but
kind words to say of him. He was
patient and faced death fearlessly.
He seemed to suffer but little. His
remains were inferred here.
Very truly yours,
M. G. KELLEY.
Nicholas Hickey was an Idaho
pioneer, and in early days a resi-
dent of Boise Basin. He was a citi.
zen of Ketchum for the past eight
or ten years, during which time he
had charge of the Baltimore mine
until last November, when he left
Ketchum in search of health. Since
then but little has been heard from
him, and the announcement of his
death, while not wholly unexpected,
was shock to his many friends IN
Idaho. That he died among friends,
though in strange,country, is very
much qualification to those who
loved and respected him, and sthe
good people Of Banning may rest
assured that their kindness was not
misplaced.
