MINT CH RtsES.
what the Term j. see Uolnage" Means.

what the Term see coinage" Means.
The question has often been put
as to what is meant by the term
''free coinage of silver" The fol-
lowing statement from an official
source will make it clear. 1t is well
however, to remember that prior to
1878 the fine silver could be depos-
tied at the mint in unlimited guam
titles.
Prior to 1873 a coinage charge OF
one-half a cent on each piece coined
was imposed, as well as a charge for
the alloy it was necessary to use to
reduce the bullion to standard met
al. If 500 ounces of pure silver
were deposited at the mint it would
coin GAG dollars. 1t would require
5555 ounces of copper for alloy,
which, at 2 cents an ounce, would
cost 81 IL. If a charge of one-half
cent were imposed it wonld be SO %,
which would make the total charges

This company which is operating
at the mouth of Gold canyon, is
doing considerable work and max
ing some fair discoveries. From
the bottom Of the shaft, which is
down about As feet, drift has been
run east about 40 feet, with some
crosscuts from it. In all this ground
there are good prospects all the
way. They have track in from
the top of the shaft to point
across the creek, and their gravel is
taken in a car to the sluices in the
creek. The manner of washing is
that practiced in California, with
the use of settling or dissolving
box, which prevents any of the dirt
being carried down over the sluices;
also the rocks. They believe that
the dirt will pay about bit a bucket.
In washing about 200 buckets of
100 lbs each day-about the aver
age worked-it will be seen that

The suit of w. A. r. Loose
against Senator Stanford, to recover
the celebra ted mare Kinda Rose,
has been decided in favor of STAN
ford. The mare was valued. in the
suit, at $4,000. Loose was form
erly the owner of the mother of
Kinda Rose. When the latter was
colt her mother was sold to Stan
ford. 1t was Stanford's opinion
that the colt went with the mare,
as he had bargained for the pur-
chase of Kinda Roses mother be-
fore Kinda was foaled. Loose con-
tested that the colt, Kinda, did not
go with the mother at the figures
named-s1 200. After Stanford had
the colt for some years, trained her,
etc, Loose brought suit for the colt,
and finally stole her The Court
held that he should have begun
suit before so long a time had
elapsed, and the case was decided
on the statute of limitation.

cutting some fancy circles on our streets

of two or three citizens, soon had him
securely locked in the city bastile. Two
children accompanied their father to
this city, and were greatly frightened to
see him arrested. Judge Merriman inn
posed fine OF 81 and costs, amounting
in all to $3.50.

DISCOVERY OF GOLD.
One Handful of Dirt Pans Over 100
Colors.
If Reports are Genuine the Gold Stand
ard is Coco.

If ever Pullman people were surprised
and excited it was this week when the
report was made current that gold had
been discovered by an old miner on the
premises of Alex Rowe, where the ar
tesian well was being drilled. Squads OF
citizens were seen on every corner dis
cussing the proposition, while others
were busy with frying pans, pie pans,
tin buckets, paint kegs and other uten-
sils that could be brought into service,
panning out the colors.
Several nuggets of large dimensions
were panned out and taken to the drug
stores for testing. They were all de-
clared gold, and the excitement contin-
ued to grow. By this time several no.
tees were posted, stated t1at claims had
been taken up. Alex Rowe was the first
to take up claim and named it "The
Scottish Chief" j. J. Williams, the
miner who first made the discovery,
drove stakes and posted a notice. He
took up claim 1900 feet long by 500 feet
Wlue, anu IL 6lldll DC hllON IL hS bilO OOi

After this someone panned out colors
at TIE artesian well of Williams, Moss Il
Co., at the aiming mill. 1t was here a
4-grain nugget was taken, and notices
were posted all along the creek immedi-
ately after this announcement was made.
Alex Rowe recorded his claim at the
auditors office Wednesday
There are many reports afloat regard
ing the genuineness of the report that
gold was really taken from the well, but
that will be settled in a few days, as Mr..
Rowe informed HERALD reporter that
he would sink a shaft as soon as his well
was completed. Some of the citizens
think that the well was "salted." II
after investigation the yellow colors are
found to be there the financial problem
will solve itself SO far as Pullman is
concerned. Let the good work be com
menced at once, and we will live in hopes
that the result will be the bringing in of
unlimited capital.

George n. Hinckley, deputy auditor Of
Latah county, Idaho, is now in trouble.
He was appointed deputy two years, and
from the first day he took the office has
been living a high life. 1t was often
wondered how man with monthly
salary Of 500 could spend over 500
weekly and keep up, but it is now under
stood by his Moscow friends. He cashed
small warrants and then raised them
to larger amounts. He would give his
personal check for 50 for 50 warrant,
and then raise it to 5000 and cash it. 1t
was in this way that he procured money
to the amount OF $4,000. He was ar
rested while at Boise attending the state
convention, and will pass through this
city this evening enroute for Moscow, in
the custody of the sheriff of Latah county,
where he will have to give an accou of
his unlawful acts.

Grass Seed Wanted.

The department of agriculture of the
Washington Agricultural College desires
to obtain the seeds of all the grasses ma
tive to the state, for the purpose of ascer-
tanning their possible economic value.
1t is well known that many of the wild
grasses OF this state are valuable forage
plants, and it is probable that some Of
them may prove valuable under culti-
vation. All who are interested in this
matter are requested to send to the coll
ege the seeds OF any or all the grasses OF
their respective localities. The seeds
may be done up in packages of from a
gill to pint, and sent by mail. The ex-
pense OF mailing will be gladly refunded.
In sending the seeds please give the COM
mon name of the grass, ii known, wheth-
er growing on wet or upland, and any
known useful or injurious properties it
may possess, also the county in which
the seed is gathered.
