Rich Strike at Neal.

III. S. Howe is in from the Hidden
Treasure mine in the Neal district,
Elmore county. He brings good
reports from that place and states
that he is more than ever convinced
that Neal is the best mining district
in Idaho. AS an illustration of the
character of the prospecting here
tofore in that district Mr.. Howe
tells an interesting story respecting
ledge that he and his sons have
recently located. This ledge has
been known to men working in the
district for several years, but in
some manner reputation of being
worthless had attached to it. 1t
was pointed out some time ago to
Fred Howe. He vas pleased with
its appearance and made something
of an examination of the ground.
There was a streak of hard quartz
standing high above the surface
that was easily traceable for more
than 1000 feet. Investigation, how
ever, showed that this was simply a
hard streak in the ledge which APP
pears in places to be 10 or Is feet
wide. Fred carried piece of rock
back to camp with him. His father
ground it up and PANIED it and was
astonished at the results obtained.
They at once concluded that the
lead was worthy of further investi-
cation. They went over to it pre-
pared to test the rock more fully
and to make a location if results
were satisfactory. Before digging
two feet they exposed ore that
showed free gold in considerable
quantities and panning of the ore at
a number of points showed it to be
very rich. Mr.. Howe states that he
never found such prospects on any
ledge in the state.
Work on the Hidden Treasure is
progressing satisfactorily. The main
tunnel was in 460 feet on the I'd
and appearances indicated that the
vein was very near at hand. The
vein has been opened on Runy
creek at the east end of the claim.
The Homestake mine continues
to improve with depth. The incline
has been SINK 100 feet below the
tunnel level The vein there shows
four feet of good ore. large pro-
portion of which is sulphide running
as high as II ounces gold per ton.
On the list of the month Mr.. Bal
bach brought in gold bar worth
$500. In addition he shipped 16
tons of concentrates. This was the
product for the month of the old
Plowman mill running on Home
stake ore 10 hours a day, reducing
about 9 tons each day.-Boise City

FOUND HER. CHILD.
A Happy Idaho Woman Going
Home Again.

ItOiuC again,
The following thrilling, blood and
thunder story comes from st. Paul
and which we copy from the Sock
ane Chronicle of the 4th. Sid Rob
erts' self-praise and extremely brave
and daring acts will be read by the
Glenn's Ferry people with much
interest and perchanoe cause many
to smile aloud. But here is the
story about stolen child and the
much SCARED, or scared, detective"
who formerly resided at the Ferry.
Read, but hold your sides:
An interesting trio passed through st. PAIL this
week route to Central Idaho The party consisted
OF Deputy sheriff Sidney J. Roberts OF Salmon City,
Idaho, and Mrs. Della Bowling and her two year old
daughter from the same town. Their journey Is
something in the nature OF triumphal procession
and If their story told in St Paul b. true it is the
climax of one OF the most remarkable cases In the
annals Of the northwest.
For many years-so runs the story-Roberts has
been In the service OF the government. He has trav
eed around among the sagebrush Of Idaho and Justly
earned the reputation Of being fearless officer and
good man for criminal to keep far away from as
possible He is known throughout Idaho sid
Roberts, and he is just as determined some Of the
desperate characters whose bullets have left
his arms and body.
Last January Salmon City, Idaho. had sensation,
caused by James Bowling. Bowling formerly lived
IN ST. raui out went west some years ago and hnaiy
opened saloon In salmon CITY he married the
uaugh.er OF pioneer OF that place. and things moved
along much the same as they usually do Tor year or
Two Then bowling fell out with his wife and the
case went INTO court 10 determine VINO should nave
possession oil pretty little girl VINO mad been born 10
them' which was two and a half years Old The court
decided that Mrs Downing should have the child.
Downing Is nervy ana determined man. ana, rising
In the courtroom, drew revolver, stood on the
Judge, court officers and spectators and walked out
with his little girl He managed to ship the child out
OF the state, but was himself captured and sent TO
Jail. He, however, broke out OF jail and Is now
fugitive from justice
With the disappearance OF the little girl began
search by the mother for her Three months passed
before any trace Of her was found Then there went
mixing to Idaho that the little girl was In Mon
tana and the great detective Gid Roberts was started
out to find her.

Liquor Licenses.

Judge Richards rendered an i'm
portaht decision recently at Weiser.
The Signal says: 1.-THE stipulated
liquor cases in the district court
were decided in favor of the dealers
without much hesitation. Harmon,
of Salubria, and the saloons of
Weiser, have each had to pay $500
year license, under the section
which says such shall be the license
in all towns casting $50 votes for
governor. The liquor men claimed
there were not $50 votes in the town
proper where they were doing busis
ness, and asked that their license be
reduced to $500. The court came
TO the conclusion that while there
may have been over 800 votes cast
in Weiser last election, more than
one-half came from the country i'm
mediately surrounding and not from
the town proper, and therefore he
rendered for plaintiffs. They have
been paying the s125 quarter to
the county under protest for some
time and ask for the return of ex-
cess paid in the the last two quar-
tiers, which they will get back under
the decision.

For your Protection. -C atarrh "Cures" OF
Tones for Catarrh in liquid form to be taken
internally, usually contain either Mercury or
Iodide Of Potassa, or both, which are injur-
ious if too long taken. Catarrh is local, not
a blood disease, caused by sudden change to
cold OF damp weather. 1t starts in the nasal
passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat.
Cold in the head causes excessive flow OF
mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the re-
suits Of catarrh will follow; severe pain IN
the head, roaring sound in the ears, bad
breath, and oftentimes an offensive dis
charge. Theremedy should bsquiekt o allay

these troubles and Contains no mercury
nor any injurious drug. Price, SO cents.

cnt EInwers In New York.

There are now about 20 wholesale
commission dealers in cut flowers III the
CITY. The first dealer in this business
started about 18 years ago. Before that
retail florists who did not raise their
own flowers sent to the greenhouses OF
the growers for them. Now nearly all
florists buy of the wholesale commission
dealers in the city.
The flowers sold in this city are grown
in New Jersey, and on Long Island and
at some other points in this state. They
are brought here by express packed IN
boxes constructed for the purpose. Ihe
busy part of the day i'll the wholesale
flower establishments is from O'Clock
in the morning, at about which time
the flowers arrive, until about noon.
The customers of the wholesale dealer
include not only city florists, but also
florists in many places within 70 miles
around New York, and flowers are often
shipped from here to points much more
distant. York Sun.

ANoINTMENT AT coRoNATloNs.
A Popularity of the Russian Ceremony
Said to BE Very Important.

REGULARITY of the Russian Ceremony
Said to BE Very Important.
1t is not generally known that the rite
of coronation i'll the Russo Greek church
agrees with the religious ceremony of
an English coronation i'll one very i'm
portant particular OF that this resem-
blance distinguishes the coronation serv-
of all other countries.
The identity of ceremonial consists in
the use of the "holy chrism," or
"cream," in the anointment of the SOW
ereign. In the Roman rite, at the coro-
nations of the old emperors of Germany
that is to say, Of the holy Roman EN-
S11e sSa11cce6dedmnot 81 the H5 schism' but fhe III
ferior oil Of the catechumens. or candi
dates for baptism, is employed, In tn
eastern rite, on the contrary, the chrisn
is used.
This chrism is understood to bestoN
ga character, " to use a theological term
upon the recipient-ln other words, II
irnparts certain gifts of the Holy Ghost
not exactly of a sacerdotal character, for
If is not used i'll the east for the Ordlna-
ton of bishops or priests, but neverthe-
less a special gift from on high, which
is indefeasible i'll him who receives it,,
and which, so long as he corresponds
with divine grace. gives him supernat-
ural sacramental grace to fulfil the du-
ties of his high office.
This is the meaning of the words "the
seal of the gift of the Holy Ghost used
at the confirmation of a child Ill the
east Immediately after its baptism, and
the same words are again used when
the emperor is again anointed at his cor
onation. 1t is in the case of the emperor
alone that a man is ever anolnted III the
east more than once i'll his life. AS al
ready stated, the chrism has never been
used in the conservation of bishops, as
it is in the greater part of the west.
Now it is q very interesting point to
notice that the only country i'll the world
besides Russia in which at the present
day the sovereign is anointed with
chrism is England. This used also to be
the case in France, but OF course the
French monarchy is now thing OF the
past. In a learned paper by DIR. Wick
ham Legg a note is quoted from a
pamphlet printed in 1919 upon the man
ner of crowning the emperor, i'll which
it is stated that, whereas the kings OF
England, France and Jerusalem and
Cicilie" were thus anointed, there were
no fewer than 90 other kingdoms at that
time in western Europe, including 70
land, of which the sovereigns were not
anointed. The kingdom of Jerusalem
and Cicilie" has of course long dlsap'

ADVERSITIES.
BY ROBERT BEVERLY HALE.

Why was l born to battle with the world?
lis heartiess bullets are 100 much for me.
My soul is nmbed by chill Adversely;
My strength is spent; dare not fight again
l am like somepoor driven fugitive,
Worn out with struggling in a desperate
cause,
Fleeing thu insults of his enemies
And If he pluck up heart to raise aloft
His broken ialchion TO renew the fight,
The jibing crowd is grimly stern once more;
He hears the Gang OF angry swords and
spears,
And sees the frown of dark browed men OF
war;
And like fool pgeferring shame TO death.
He drops his shield and turns and fees
away.
Oh shame, shame, shamel And am sunk SC
low?
l will attack this crowd of grlnning foes.
Wrestling my courage from Despair itself,
And, gaining strength from each new vic
tory,
Hew out my way to the free air of Hope.
Like strong man sent to spy out the land
Which some dark mountain curtains from
his view
The natives say that no man ever scaled
The Evil Mount and reached his home again
Their best guide perished there but yester
day
But this strange traveller does not heed theil
He will not stop to balance hope and fear
But the steep that none can climb he climbs
And misafnu ba1f
breadth,
Scales the sheer peak; and 10. the sought fol
land
unseen except from that black mountains
BROW,
Like great map painted in blue and green
Upon the plain ten thousand feet below!
Or like some sweet stream wandering with
out noise
In the cool shade of overhanging trees
Until it meets a dam of earth and stone,
And from gently flowing rivulet
1t changes to peaceful lOoking-g glass;
But opposition slowly lends it's strength;
1t swells and swell without an angry sign
Until its time is come. Then wild with rage
1t bursts away right through the massive
wall,
And crazed with victory dashes down the
glen
On Its resistless journey to the sea.
The pleasant path of smooth Prosperity
Leads us in crowds along tiowery way.
Thinking ourselves almost divinities,
Until we see high on a rocky peak
Some man who did not fear to climb alone
Then we perceive that our delightful road
Leads seldom up, tho oft it draws us down;
w lille those great cliffs we call Adversities
Are stepping stones by which men mount
to Heaven.
