Mining at Pierce City.

r. n. Dunn, of the firm of Dunn Bros
< Carr, owners of TIE bond mine at
Pierce City, reached here Monday with
10 ounces of gold, the cleanup of about
ID days run with their 3-ton stamp mill.
Tat the Bond mine is paying well is
apparent, and with the addition of a
machine Of larger capacity, which is the
intention OF its operators, large returns
may be expected. A large water wheel
has been constructed, IN order to utilize
the excellent water power there, and
hereafter it is their intention to run
their mill by this power. Operating
til mill with it's present capacity of
three tons per day, and the employment
of two men to operate, even under the
present capacity, the mine pays its own
ers about fifty dollars per day, clear of
expenses. Times.

his full baritone voice IN an earnest plea
for assistance. Still no one came. Hot

was created into modern inferno. The
prisoner again raised his voice, lie

toasting him on fork, at the same time
beating IN exhihrating tattoo on the
side of his cell. Then came relief. No
common terror could produce such
agonizing bowls, and the officers knew
something awful was transporting in the

Mrs. Hardy, who, as a resident Of
Lewiston last winter, attracted much
attention by Der seeming eceentricity,
and who subsequently startled her many
acqualnt .nces by brntalIv muir lering
the unfortunate little mulatto girl at
Moscow, has apparently not lost any of
her fendlsh dispositions, and since her
confinement in the state penitentiary it
has from time to time been displayed.
The Boise Statesman, of recent date,
chronicles her latest effort:
"Mrs. Hardy, the murderess, who is
serving lite imprisonment in the Idaho
penltentiary for killing her adopted
child little negro girl, has given the
prison officials no end of trouble. From
the moment of her incarceration she be-
gan to devise ways and means to turn
the hairs of her keepers prematurely
gray. And she seems to be succeeding
admirably. She started in with a glass
swallowing exhibition, but she has
changed the bill now For soma time
past she has raved almost necessarily,
her wild cries nearly driving the officials
and the convicts as we'll to distraction.
1t was finally decided to give her a dose
of the "bug house." The "bug house"
is a small wooden building in one cor
ner of the prision enclosure. In it Is a
double compartment cell, and obstrup-
erous prisoners are sometimes domciled
therein. With Mrs. Hardy1in the "bug
house, her blood curdling cries we're
muzzled and the officers and other prs
oners enjoyed short space of unaloyed
peace.
They had just commenced to congrat-
ulate themselves on the apparently sue
cessful method of suppressing Mrs.
Hardy, when the tigress broke out in an
entirely unexpected manner. In another
compartment of the "bug house" cell
was an unruly prisoner. He had burned
up lot of potatoes which he had been
instructed to feed to he pigs, and WAS
Immediately ushered into the "bag
house" Mrs. Hardy had not been an
inmate of the "bug house" very long
before she set about TO develop some
scheme to raise a row. She seemed on
the point of giving up when she thought
of the prisoner In the other eompart-
ment. At the same time she concocted
hellish scheme to give him a good
scare, and at tie same time further i'm
press the officials with the fact that she
was DESTROYS of quitting this sphere.
Accordingly she gathered up her bed
clothes and set them on fire. The other
prisoner soon heard the roar of the
flames and felt the heat and he began to |
call out Justify. But no one came to
his relief. The flames leaped higher
and higher and the heat nomentarily

O. II. * n. Work

When the O. r. & N. Co. is through
with this division Of it's road there will
not be better road bed in Washing ton.
From 120 to $50 car loads of gravel
composing four or five double header
train loads, is hauled daily from the
Pleasant Valley branch and is distrib-
uted along the line of the road at the
rate of car load to each rails length.
There are now about eighty men at
work on tho road. Ahead is a crew of
28 men who are removing the earthen
tamping fron between the ties ready to
receive the gravel. Next comes the
gravel trains and deposit the gravel,
covering one mile of track a day. Then
following behind is a crew of 45 men
who are raising the track six or seven
inches, putting in rev ties and the
gravel ballast. This crew completes less
than half a mile day and Is therefore
getting far behind.
When this work is comp leted a crew
will be started laying new steel G2 pound
rails to replace the old 56-pound rails
now in use.
The gravel trains have completed their
work from below Colfax to half way be-
tween Garfield and Pennington. Con-
siderable interest was taken in the man
ner of unloading the cars while they
were working near town. A big pillow
like V snow pillow is placed at the rear
of the train and by long wire cable is.
drawn by the engine. The pillow moves
along from one car to tie other, piling
the gravel at the sides, and unloads at
the rate of three or four cars a minute.
The cars are loaded with steam shsyel

Hawthorne, Ill.,, May 12.-It was a
cold DAY for the sports at the race
track. Chicago and Cook county have
for some time been struggling with a
hot wave, hut the owners and patrons
OF Hawthorne track found it cool
enough for them when $50 big deputy
sheriffs marched into the track and
declared that Hawthorne was running
a game prejudicial to good morals, the
laws, and the peace Of the community.
Having declared themselves the depu-
ties proceeded to gather in Edward
Corrigan, the master of Hawthorne;
John Brennock, his business partner;
Joseph II. Ullman, the proprietor OF
the foreign book and twenty-six small
or fry. The prisoners were hurried
off to the city and brought before
Judge Ewing, of the superior court,
who, after a short discussion with the
attorneys for the prisoners and for the
civic federation which planned the
raid, admitted the prisoners to bail in
the sum of $500 each.
The officers Of the civic federation
have determined that there shall be no
racing contrary to law in Cook county
this year, and they declare they will
repeat the raids as often as the man.
2Sement of Hawthorne cares to open
up.
Rumors of the intended raid had got
abroad, however, and when the army
of law approached the track there was
great confusion and excitement at the
track. The bookmakers were prompt
ly given the alarm and at once began
to hustle their blackboards out Of
sight. When the deputies marched in
not a blackboard was to be seen and
the bOOkmakers were standing around
trying to look innocent.
There was no confusion at the for
eign book, however. Joe Ullman con
trolls it, and he had been arrested in
a raid last year. He had an idea that
lightning never struck twice in the
same place, and besides he was MAX
ing bets on nice good races at other
tracks. Therefore, Ullman, wrapped
in his innocence, confident of his abil-
ity to locate the spot where the bolt
would strike, made no effort to hide
his blackboard-or what would have
served him better, his person-and he
was badly fooled. The lightning hit
him fair and square. A deputy who
had an idea that Hawthorne races
were no more immoral than those on
other tracks promptly rounded Mr..
Ullman up, much to that gentleman's
disgust and wrath for his book was
$4,000 behind on the day and he
wanted to make it up. Other men
connected with the foreign book see
ing the miserable failure of Ullman's
lightning rod, made a wild break for
liberty, but the officers secured as
many Of them as they cared for. The
formal hearing of the prisoners will be
next Tuesday.

Iowa Democrats Will Hold One Ut
Des Moines. .
Des Moines, May 14.-A call for a.
silver conference in this city June &
has been issued by about forty we'll
known Democrats, headed by ex
Lieut.. Gov. Bestow. The call says:
1T can no longer be doubted that a
concerted effort is being put forth by
a minority, but a powerful minority,
within both the Republican and Demo
cratic parties to foist upon the coun-
try the class doctrine of gold mono
metallism, as distinguished from the
genuine bimetallism contemplated by
the constitution and advocated by the
Democracy since the birth of the
party. This movement is backed pri-
marily by the money lenders of Eu-
rope and secondarily by the class in
terests in this country that have
grown up under vicious legislation.
Their forces, comparatively few in
number, but working in perfect har-
mony for a central purpose, have per-
fected their plans to control the tenn
porary and permanent organization
of the state convention to be held in
MarshalltoWn Aug. 7. If the plans OF
the single gold standard forces are not
bravely met and defeated the party in
Iowa will certainly be enrolled under
the banner Of the European tinanciers
and the Wall street bankers. Let us
face the issue like true Democrats
and acquit ourselves like men, giving
adversaries no cause for just COM
plant, but let it be a fight to a finish.
This is no time for shrinking, no time
for silly or d%isgraceful compromises
on vital ~issue-the welfare Of the
party for years to come is at stake"

Milwaukee, May 11.-President ". j.
H.. Traynor, Of the supreme body OF
the A. P. A., this morning delivered
an address of between $4,000 and 3d.
600 words, in which he made sugges
lions and recommendations covering
practically every leading question OF
the day. He denounced the laws
which accept the vote Of the ignorant
foreigner who is unable to read or
write the English language and reject
the votes of the intelligent women who
are directly interested in the affairs OF
the nation, and who have proven their
ability to manage public affairs. He
declared that the city Of Washington
is "a perennial hotbed of Jesuitical
lobbyists, who carry their points by
b%ulldoZing and ~boycotting senators and
representatives" He strongly urged
the establishment Of a national head
quarters of the A. P. A. and a national
organ at the national capital. with car

clared himself to be in hearty accord
with the movement to extend the A.

recommended the effort to raise the
standard Of politics by educating the
masses on the lines Of patriotism laid
down by the constitution and declara-

advising the support of Il new political
party which will indorse the leading

OUT,
An Opinion Respecting the Fish and
Game Commission.

An Opinion Respecting the Fish and
Game Commission.
st. Paul, May l2.-There is no fish
and game commission in Minnesota
according to an opinion rendered by
Attorney General Childs this morning.
He holds that under the wording of
the first section Of the new law passed
last winter a new board OF fish and
game commissioners is created, and
hence the terms of the present COM
m~issioners expired with the passage Of
that act, and the old board was COM
pletely abolished. The words which do
the business are:
"There shall be a board Of five COM
~missioners, who shall be appointed by
the governor, and shall constitute the
first board under the provisions of this
act"
The opinion was handed to the gov
this morning, and under it there
will undoubtedly be a new commits
sion, or at least two new members
to take the place of Timberlake and
Ferris. The fact that Mr.. Fullerton
was appointed by the governor only
last winter probably insures his re-
tention of his office. Besides, he has
made q very effective agent. as the
pOachers know to their sorrow.

Dover, Del, May 11.-The general
assembly of Delaware adjourned sine
die at 3 O'Clock without choosing a sue
cessor to ex-senator Higgins, although
the Republicans claim that their lead
ing candidate, Col. Henry A. Dupont,
was legally elected. The matter will
probably be taken to the United States
senate for q decision. The 21lth bal
lot since the deadlock began, four
months ago, and the last Of the session
was taken a few minutes before 3
O'Clock. 1t resulted: Henry A. Du-
pont (Rep.), Is; J. Edward Addicks
'(Rcp.), 4; Edward Ridgely (Dem.l, 8;
Tunnel Dem.), /.
During the day the Democrats fill
clustered, with the object of prevent
ing balloting, and when the state
house rang out the hour Of 3 and
sounded the death knell of the legisla-
tive session OF 1905, the clerk was in
the midst Of a roll call on a dilatory
motion made by a Democrat.
AS Don as Gov. Watson Dem.) who,
by reason of the fact that he was
speaker of the senate before his eleva-
ton to the gubernatorial chair, upon
the death Of Gov. Marvil, presided
over the joint session, announced the
sine die adjournment, Speaker of the
House McMullin (Rep.( arose and
formally declared Henry A. Dupont
elected United States senator.
This action had previously been
agreed upon by the Republican lead
ers. The Delaware legislature is COM
posed of 81 representatives and . SEN
,ators, 16 being a majority on joint
ballot. The Republicans claim that
when Watson, by virtue of his posi-
ton as speaker of the senate, sue
ceeded to the g~overnorship upon the
death of Gov. Marvil, n month ago,
the number Of senators was reduced
to S, and therefore there were only 20
on joint ballot, and that Is votes con-
stituted a majority.
On the other hand, the Democrats
and Gov. Watson claim that the law
distinctly declares that the speaker Of
the senate shall become governor.
Therefore, if Mr.. Watson withdraws.
from the senate he ceases to BIZ
speaker of the senate" and conse-
quently loses the governorship. The
senatorial question is likely to occupy
a large amount Of public attention for
months to come. Whether the gov
ernor has the right to appoint is a dis
puted question. If he has, the ap-
pointment will be only until the next
legislature, which meets in January,
1896, unless sooner called together by
the governor. This latter contingency
is not probable, however.

two men and William Helm were in a
row boat on the bay getting logs into

thunder storm came up and at 1O:45
there was a flash Of lightning that
struck Amory and Barshaw, who were
in the two ends of the boat. Helm,
who a in the middle Of the boat
was knocked s~enseless, although unin-

recovered consciousness, he saw Am

him, holding on till help came. Bar
shaw's clothing was stripped from him
in various places as neatly as if he
had done it himself. Both shoes and
stockings were taken off, and one OF
the shoes was torn into shreds.
