A Florida Mountain Nine Deal.

Captain J. w. Plummer, on Thursday
secured an option from Messrs. Lewis
& Nichols for the purchase of the AL
pine, Harrison and Little Chief mining
claims on Florida mountain, and will
Immediately begin work on their devel-
opment Having advanced to the own
ers ofthis well known group of proper
ties handsome sum as a bonus, pur-
chase is almost assured in this instance.
This group is situated on and near the
summit of the mountain between the
heads of Coffee and Lewis gulches and
west of the Trade Dollar group. A
splendid vein eff ore has been opesed
on the Alpine which has for short
time been profitably worked by leasers.
Miners familiar with Florida mountain
consider this one of the richest groups
upon the mountain and expect to see it
develop into a rich producer.
This is the same group which Colo
RADIO parties have been reported to be
negotiating deal on. AS soon as their
time expired Captain Plummer stepped
In and secured it.

Spain has by battle and disease, al
ready sacrificed $4,000 troops and ex-
pended 100000 in her attempts to
stop the revolution in Cuba. Every
right minded man on this side of the
Atlantic is in thorough sympathy with
the Cubans. It only took spain thirty
days 10 recognize the belligerant rights
of the Confederacy at the beginning Of
the American rebellion. Now, by all
means, let our government recognize
the autonomy of Cuba.

Hyp-Knott-isn.

1t is whispered that Kuott, the mining
man now here, VINO still owns valuable
property in Owyhee, has been under
hypnotic influence for months, was un-
der the spell when he sold millions for
a song, and that the old man will be
kept hoodoed by the professor, who
was imported for the purpose, until he
parts with the remainder of his Golcon-
dac possessions. Is this true?-Boise
Democrat.
Col. Knotts misfortunes are not, in
in this county, accounted for by any
hypnotic influences, unless such influ-
ences as are sold over a bar counter
may be considered such. The Colonel
is of a peculiar mental makeup which
prevented him accepting large sums
for his holdings when offered what
everyone thought to be fair price, and
preferring TO quarrel with every neigh
Dor, and doing his mining in law Offices
instead of under ground. He has very
few sympathizers in Owyhee.

That Yacht Race.

The first of the international Yacht
races in the tenth attempt to win back
the cup awarded to the Yacht, America,
at Cowes, England, in 1851, comes off,
near New York, to-day. What plucky
lot of people those Johnny Bulls are!
The glory of outsaiIing them and cap
turing from them a sailors prize, forty
four years ago, never will be forgotten
until they have achieved its recovery.
It is said that nearly three million dol
lars has been spent by them in their
efforts to re-capture hauble, the COM
mercial value of which is only about
S35. 1t is that kind of spirit which
has made the people of that little island
almost rulers of the sea and conquerers
of nearly the whole world. While our
own national pride would be sorely
pioued were that cup to be carried back
to England, we must all admit that the
pluck displayed in attempts to recap
ture it deserves success. But how proud
Americans Ougnt 10 Oe oyer tuS H'otoiy
of the affair as far as yet told! They
won it from a nation boasting Of the
best sailors aud the greatest naval arch
itects in the world. They have defend
ed it with a spirit quite as plucky as
that displayed in the struggle for its re-
covery. It's capture was glorious
achievement and its defense has been
equally glorious. The challenge to take
it if they could, has been open to every
nation in the world for nearly half
and the Yankees have it yet
May it still remain in their possession
until twice as many more attempts have
been made to take it from them.

Miners Convention.

a circular, signed by about sixty
men, interested in mining, h as been is
sued from Spokane, calling a general
meeting of mining men in that city,
Oct. 2 and 8. The following clipping
from the circular gives the purpose of
the meeting:
The object of this association is not
to form mining exchange, but to con-
suit together as mining men and inter-
ested in mines and encourage the pass
age of such laws, both state and nation
al, as will best subserve the mining in
dustry.
Want of organization has been felt in
all the mining districts of the North
west, and while isolated or individual
effort often fails to successfully combat
adversites which are met with, the
combined interests and general know
ledge to be acquired by cooperation
has led to the present movement,
which is the organization of what we
are pleased to name the Northwest Min
ers' Association, and which should at
once enlist the hearty support of all
who are engaged, in whatever capacity,
in mining.
The field proposed to be covered by
this organization, with cooperation and
the endorsement of others engaged in
mining in the territory, are the states
of Washington, Idaho, Montana and
Oregon, and the province of British
Columbia.

Why should there be an international
agreement about money, when there is
no such thing as international money?
Our gold coin in England sells by
weight, just as gold or silver bars or
wheat or cotton or pork. A dead hog,
fit for market, is just as much inter-
national money as gold. International
balances are always settled by swap
ping The London creditor of an Am
erican firm asks for exchange, or gives
an American order for that commodity
out of which he can make the most
profit. international money! is the
talk of seoundrel or an ignoramus.-

The NUGGET had the pleasure of re-
ceiving call from our old-time friend,
Dave Farmer, who is now a high pri-
vate in the Salvation Army, and like
every good soldier in that wonderful
organization, very jealous in the cause
for which he is gallantly fighting. Mr.
Farmer comes here from San Francisco,
to look after mining properties in
which he is interested. He is looking
extremely well and seems to be en-
joying the life to which he is now de-
voting his energies.

Another Stage Hold Up.

On Thursday night the, stage from
Nampa was again held up, on the sum-
nit above Boonville, at nearly the same
place where the former hold-up occurred.
This time three men stopped the driver
and ordered him to throw off the ex-
press box. The driver promptly COM
piled and the men, who had an axe
with them, Knocked off the lock, ex-
traeted the contents, consisting OF a
small package for John Rowett, the De-
Lamar jeweler. They then threw the
box back to the driver and told him to
tell the people that they were only
Just having q little practice at their
noble profession and would show them
some fine work later on. There were
several passengers aboard for Silver
City but they were not molested.
The people in DeLamar and Silver
City have been sufficiently cautioned
and no longer ship in currency by the
stage and the industrious gentlemen,
who are following the exciting pursuit
of stage robbing, we fear will find a
very poor livelihood in their profession
here. They are very civil and polite

short for them around the gambling
dens here and Silver City. We would

Both Known in D elamar.

Ray Gardner, the Boise constable,
who swindled the Boise bank out of
several hundred dollars on bogus fee
bills and was afterwards arrested and
brought back from Alaska, pleaded
guilty to one of the charges against him
in the Ada County court, and will ac-
cept position rendered him in the
pen.
Zimmerman the crazy dentist, who
stole horse and cart and drove around
the country over there, also pleaded
guilty, and will join Gardner indigging
the penitentiary potato crop.
Both of these gay bucks stopped
while in DeLamsr. Zimmerman, a
year ago was arrested for hattery on
the person of Uncle Henry Westerly,
and after being fined, created quite
sensation BY getting away from Deputy
Sheriff Williams, who was sure they
would fiod him with bullet hole in
his back, fright between his shoulders"
over in the Willows. Gardner, couple
of years ago, drove rivets in the stand
pipe here few days and pretended TO
to practice law here for few weeks.

The Warm Springs and Umatilla In
dians, in Oregon, leave their agencies
every summer and hunt game around
STEMS Mountain, killing large numbers
of deer, stripping them of their bides
and leaving their carcsses, just as the
Duck Valley Indians do in the Juni-
pers in this county. This has caused a
sort of Jackson's Hole disturbance
around Burne, Oregon, and rumors
come from there that fifteen Indians
had been killed by cow-puncbers. 1t
was not true, however; but if the agents
do not put a stop to this business there
will be serious trouble both in the Juni-
pers and at STEMS Mountain. Rigid
laws are made to protect the game from
destruction by white men and no won
der it gals them to see a lot of worth
less bucks given such liberties.

NEW TO-DAY.
THIS IS NOT FOR ROASTING
BUT TO SPEAK WITH HONEST PRIDE OF THE PAST.
That Stands
a

For more than three years the work of Drs.
Copeland and Neal has been represented to the
public by innumerable successful results, faith
fully reported in the columns OF the daily pa
pers The number of witnesses testfy1ng to
their superior skill and faithful, conscientious
work has been greater than in the history OF
medical practice ever gave public testimony In
the same length of time to any physician or
firm of physicians in this city. NO less In the
character of the testimony than In the number
OF witnesses has the record been unequaleu anu
unparalleled. These statements nave not peen
from obscure or unknown people, nor from
people living in distant towns and cities. Ihey
have been from persons, all well known IN the
neigh borhood in which they live, ana most OF
them representative members OF some partlcu-
lar profession, trade or craft. The interviews
have been accompanied with portraits ana ad-
tatives of almost every profession, even
physicians themselves have willingly and
voluntarily given their testimony.
The record has been one OF winch any honest
physician and specialist may feel justly promo,
and month by month their,practlce has steadlly
increased from the first and Is to-day larger
than ever beforehand three or four times
larger than that of any other physician or nrm
OF physicians in the city.
There is no surer test OF genuine merlt ana
skill than this. Advertising Will Drlng pat1ents
but it will not keep them. Advertising Will
start practice but it will not MAINTAIN IL year
after year.
BY cordial support and patronage the people
of the Coast have testified to the skill and
faithfulness of Drs Copeland and Neal. That
their practice is to-day larger than IL ever was
shows that success is built not upon adVer-
Using but upon the merit or tnelr WORK as
physicians and specialists.

DEATH OF INDIAN JACK,
The Old Man Was a Familiar
Figure on Montgomery
Street for Years.
He Died In a Howell on Third and
King Streets of Pneumonia
Over Week Ago.

An old man known as "1ndian Jack"
was found dead in the lumber-yard at the
corner of Third and King streets yesterday.
He had an old hut there built among the
piles of lumber and for years had kept him
self alive by doing odd jobs around town.
He was familiar figure around Montgom-
cry and Sansome streets, and his old mill
tary suit, medals and the pampas plumes
he carried in his hands will be remem-
bered by many. He was taken sick with
pneumonia over week ago and died alone
in his howell several days ago. His body
was in filthy condition when found by
Deputy Coroner Hallett.
For over twenty years Indian jack
made his home down at Third and King
streets, and many a dollar he received
from Pope & Talbot, on whose property he
was squatting.
He also worked on the dumps and as a
saver and splitter of wood he was sought
after by many. The last time the old man
was seen he was complaining of a severe
cold. His continued absence aroused curl
osity among the men engaged in the yard
and they instituted search which resulted
in the finding of the body.
The old man had laid his uniform care
fully away and his plumes, hat and medals
were in little tin box on a shelf.
