A w elcome Present.

The most welcome Christmas present
received in nineiy-three,
Was the eyer welcome NUeGET
Which my brother sent to me.
Each week, welcome visitor,
/ scanned its columns DER,
A present most enduring,
To the end of ninety-four.
And though sometimes its pages
Did bring sad news and pain,
Each week I'd wait its coming
To scan them DER again.
1t halls from dear Owyhee
Where l spent such happy days;
And this is why / prize it
And speak of it with praise.
Thy name, dear old Owyhee,
Is ever dear to me,
Thy mountains, streams, rocks and hills
l daily long to see.
Though many miles do lie between
Thy mountain tops and me,
Some day may return again,
My dear old friend, to thee.
Always to dear old Idaho
My fondest memories cling,
Her summer flowers and winter SHOWS
Sweet recollections bring.
The fondly welcomed NUGGET
I hope will still arrive
And meet the same warm welcome
Each week in ninety five,
II my brother overlooks me,
Continne sendino il
To yours truly, same address,
And for it I'll remit.
Jamestown, N. Y, Xmas, 1894.

In an interview, the other daY, Mar
Gus DAILY, Montana's great mining mag
nate, stated that the Anaconda Com
pany bad spent oyer S44,000,000 in de-
velopment work in the mines and for
the building of reduction works and
other improvements, and he also pre-
dicted that the time was near at hand
when Montana would be shipping steel
rails east and sheet copper to India.
With few such men as Mr.. DAILY at
the head of affairs the future of Mon

A number of old stays imposed upon
the good nature of Mr.. and Mrs. James
Joyce; upon the mountain, on Thurs
day night, and gathered at their house
and had just as good time as it was
possible for lot of men to have who
were TOD selfish to take the same num-
Der of ladies with them. They in
dulged in some singing. there being
several excellent vocalists in the party,
and were treated to some extra fine
step and jig dancing by Messrs. Alex,
Mcleod and James Joyce, Mr.. and
Mrs, Joyce accepted the invasion Of the
young gentlemen very gracefully and
treated them quite royalty. The party
broke up about one O'Clock and the men
had some funny experiences coming
down the mountain, Sam Barkle and
Dick Thomas getting buried in big
snow drift, from which they were only
extracted after woful pleading with
their companions. Before the party
quit the mountain they stopped in front
of Steve Lawrence's residence and treat
ed Mr.. and Mrs. Lawrence to serenade
singing "Good Night, Stephen for
their benefit and dedication. Then
they sneaked into Doc Harris resi-
dence without awaking that genial gem
tleman until some fifteen of them let
out terrific yell which might almost
have walked the dead. They never
gave Doc chance to setJem up. Then
they played the same game on Duncalfe.

Killed in a Snow Slide.
Robert Nichols and Jerome Mullaney
Caught by Snow Slide in
Long Gulch.

| Thursday night, Robert Nichols and
Jerome Mullaney started, after supper,
from the Blaine boarding house to go
down to Silver City, upon snow shoes.
Some other men having gone down the
same evening and not seeing them in
town, and they not returning to the
mine in the morning, started the sur
mise that they might have been caught
IN snow slide which had occurred in
Long Gulch that night. A small party
started out in the morning to search for
them, tracked the prints of their snow
shoes to the swath of the snow slide and
road but no further and a search soon
revealed one of the mems hats. Then
men We're sent down from the mine and
others came up from Silver City and
digging for the lost men was begun ia
earnest. One of the mems bodies was
soon found under only about three feet
of snow, bnt the other was buried fully
fifteen feet.
This is the first accident of this char
acter, so far as We are informed, ever
occurring in Owyhee county. Snow
slides occur here rather infrequently,
and are usually not heavy. The snow
fall is still light herein the mountains
and slide so early in the season sell
dom occurs. Had the men followed the
usual trail they would not have been
caught.
But little is known of the two victims
here in peLamar, Mullaney had
brother in Silver, who took charge of
the remains, taking them to his home
at Glenn's Ferry, for burial.
Nichols came here from Idaho City.

The Utes are now returning from
the Colorado hunting grounds, and
from the looks of their pack ponies
they have been unusually successful
in the hunt this season. For instance:
One outfit that passed through town
this week, composed of two DUCKS
with their squaws had SIX ponies
packed with deer hides. This Is put
one instance out of scores. MOST OF
them have some dried venison ana we
have noticed few hides that had the
fleshy part of the hind quarters re-
naming in them.
The papers in our neighboring towns
across the line in Routt and Rio Blaa-
co counties are making the annual kick
about the renegade Indians slaughter
ing game" and calling upon the state
game warden to put stop to it, but
apparently their entreaties are I'M
heard II does scent like an injustice
to allow these lazy Indians to invade
the hunting grounds of northwestern
Colorado and Discriminatory slaughter
beef for their hides alone, while the
white men who have located in this
region so remote from the railroads
and have labored under disadvantages
and been deprived of many of the COM
forts of life to build homes for them
selves, are not allowed to kill game
for their own use except for few
months during the summer. We have
no doubt, however, but that the set
tiers kill all they need for their own
use, and believe that they alone
should have the vilege.-Vernal EX-

WoMAN's RIGHTS.

In recently published medical work.
the author asserts that nine-tenths of
the women Of America are subject to
uterine and kindred diseases and in
consequence, maternity becomes to
them a dreaded burden. How very
small is the proportion of ladies who
reach middle age wearing the bright
glow Of health which was their maid
emily attraction, and Of which they have
been robbed by functional disorders
and nervous weakness. We take pleas
ure in recommending to all thus affiict-
ed the use of DR.. Pierces Favorite

SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION.
Meeting Held in the Fourteenth
Ward Assembly Rooms.

The schools of Herman, Union, Farm
ers, Big Cottonwood, and all the Sab
bath schools of the city except the
third, eighth, ninth, twelfth, twentieth,
twenty-second. and the twentythird,
were represented at the union meeting
held last evening in the Fourteenth ward
assembly rooms.
Stake Superintendent Grigg3 presided,
and the Fifth ward Sabbath school, I'M
der the direction of Brother Daniel
Smith discoursed sweet music during
the evening, and a part of the Tenth
ward school furnished the programme
of exercises under the direction OF Supt.
Charles Symons.
After few preliminary remarks by
demiate department. directed by Miss
Edith Brady gave a very interesting
class exercise, the subject of which was
the delivery of Israel from the bondage
John ". Saunders next illustrated the
work done in the Second intermediate
department which had been studying
the life of the Savior as given in the
Sunday School Union leaflets. An essay
was first read by Miss Jessie Davis to
introduce the subject; the class was then
infinitely reviewed upon the lesson.
"Rarki Listen to the Music" was
beautifully rendered by the primary
class of the Fifth ward school.
Miss Maud Paul of the theological
class read a Well prepared essay upon
1.-The Resurrection OF Christ, and His
appearance to His disciples in Jerusa-
lem and upon this continent Also
President Joseph e. Taylor made d
bath school workers present. He was
much gratified at the progress made in
this work throughout the stake, and the
efficient methods OF lnstructing the
young in the principles of the gospel.
The speaker urged particularly the need
of instructing the children in the duty
of obedience and honor to parents, to
the priesthood and to the Lord. Cues
tions of mystery and subjects upon which
the revelations of God were silent,
should not be discussed in any depart
ment of the Sunday school. Ohicers and
teachers of the Sabbath school, he said,
were called to I'LL as honorable and re-
snonsible positions as any in the church.
and they should devote the best talents
of the heart and mind to the fuihiiing OF
these duties to the honor and glory of
Superintendent Griggs spoke of the
annual nickel Sunday collections for the
use of the Sunday School Union. Most
of the schools have already sent in their
receipts which We're very liberal and sat
isfactory. They amounted, on an aver
age, to nearly nickel for each scholar
enrolled in the schools, SO lar as re-
ported.
The speaker suggested that where Off
GERS or teachers We're necessarily abb
sent. an excuse should always be sent;
III que SSdSOii- 81 NAidA mel EiesScS NStih-
be filed by others, and the work and
harmony of the schools would be marred
and interfered with in much less de-
gree.
The Seventh ward school was re-
quested to furnish a programme of eX-
ercises at the next meeting and the Fiji
teenth ward to furnish the musical ex-
erciseS.
Benediction was pronounced by Elder
Charles NJ Cannon, and the meeting adj
iourned TO meet on December 10th.
