miles south of Grangeville and ten
miles west and north of Salmon
river which gave up three millions
of treasure in the early sixties, is
again coming to the front this time

The contour of the country at
Florence is what would be called
rough. Still there is nothing that
we would call mountains near
there. Away to the east is Buffalo
Hump, a noted land mark. To
the northwest is Slate creek noun
tains, over which the early trail
ran and which is still used to a
limited extent. About fifty miles
to the southwest are tho Seven
Devils, only four of which can be
seen from Florence. About twenty
Cinnamon that still live around in
the old deserted cabins turn over
the sand for the second and third
time that once was yellow with
gold.
When we take into considera-
ton the fact that free milling
quartz can be worked anywhere
that a pack train can go it seems
incredible that a section of country
of about two townships and now
within forty miles of three pros
porous towns, should remain for
thirty years with no one to raise the
question of where did all this
placer gold come from.
John Clark has lived in Florence
"a years, saw the rise and fall of
the camp, keeps store and hotel
in the summer and goes to Iowa in
the winter, and yet as late as last
August he did not like to give
credit to anyone who was hunting
quartz. All this will change now,
for six hundred locations are of
record and there is no telling how
many there are that are not re-
corded. Of these six hundred but

The Roman or block letter is beeom-
ing more popular as the style of engray-
ing for visiting card plates, while the
fashionabIy thin card Of two sheet
quality is eminently proper. Cards for
both men and women are considerably
smaller, and the script engraving is
finer in consequence, following more
closely the English style than the Pari-

The block or Roman letter plate is yery
English, and with those affecting Lon
