John Hite very nearly committed an
awful blunder on Sunday night. A
young lady got off of No. 8, and in
quIred for her Soon-to-be husband,
John Hyde. The similarity of the
names and the well known fact that
the GilsOnite agent is an inveterate
ladies' man, caused the railroad people
to think that the young lady was
some former Missouri girl of Hite's,
who had come to get him or die, so
they sent her to Hites room. He
was gently doing and dreaming of his
darling-not from Missouri-when the
charming apparition broke upon him.
The room was dimly lighted, and in
a moment later the stranger would
have been in his arms, but with fine
presence of mind he gathered himself
and in I few terse, well chosen words,
thus aprrised the young woman of her
error. Madame, you have come to
the wrong place." and a Chinaman,

With this issue the Recorder enters
upon the tenth year of its existence, /
and the eighth under the present man /
agement We have endeavored to pub I
lish a clean, impartial paper. OF
course We have been compelled to crit
icise sharply, and perhaps unjustly,
but there are many truth distorters in
our community, and in some instances
our inforuation was not correct, but
take it al in all, we have tried to be
honest and give our patrons as good
a paper as our limited brain power
would permit. At any rate, we are
here to stay, and thank our patrons
for the liberal support which they
have given us in the past, and hope
for a continuance of the same in the
future.-Salmon City Recorder.
Up on Lake Creek there is a buck
deer with a bell around his neck.
The miners at work on the Homestake
and Merrimac very often hear the bell
and when they do they are not mysti-
fed
This deer was captured year ago
this spring by a man in ketchum near
that town. The animal was branded,
had his ears marked and a bell placed
around his neck. Becoming mean and
refusing to eat, his owner turned him
loose in the streets. He wandered off
and spent the winter on the divide be-
tween Lake and Trail creeks.
He still seems 10 like the vicinity,
and gives notice OF his presence by
the tinkling Of the bell.-News-Mine
