Fraud Under the Desert Act.

Suits have been begun in the
United States court at Boise by
the United States to recover some
$500 acres of land located in the
Blackfoot land district, which the
government claims were illegally
proved up on by those entering it.
This is the first step toward
gaining possession of several large
tracts of land in that district which
are alleged to have been proved up
on under the grossest misrepre-
sentation. 1t is claimed that par
ties, residents of other states,
many of Colorado and Utah, took
up land under the desert land act
of 1877, and in the year 1890 and
in the following year represented
to the receiver and register of the
Blackfoot land Office that water
had been supplied to the land in
sufficient quantities to irrigate the
whole of it. The complaint in the
case asserts that the land.has never
had water upon it and that it is
yet unreclaimed. There are sew
eral suits already begun.

FOSSILS IN THE BAD LANDS.
Discoveries Recently Made In South Ds
kOta by Prof. Todd.

Discoveries Recently Made In South Ds-
kota by Prof. Todd.
There was brought to this place q
few days ago the strangest collection of
bones and petrifications that one could
wish to see, says Hermosa Is. d. let
ter to the New York Sun. 1t was sent
by the party of scientists under Prof.
Todd. state geologist, who have been at
work in the Bad Lands for some weeks
and last week found a hill of tufa and
volcanic ash which at intervals quakes
and shakes. They have been for some
time in the section between Wounded
Knee creek and Battle creek, near the
scene Of the Pine Ridge affairs with
the Sioux some years ago.
They have found quantities of the
fossilized remains Of turtles, with shells
from two to three feet in diameter, and
of the brontotherium, hoglile animal
from 10 to IA feet in length, as we'll as
the oredon, prehistoric animal whose
appearance was that of a sheep.
The water in the region is saturated
with clay. held in solution, and it re-
mains indefinitely without settling,
giving the water the color and consis-
tency Of cream. This has been. the
cause Of great suffering among the geo.
logists, as it has been almost .impos-
sible to get water fit to drink. The light
colored clay buttes composing the en-
tire face of the country are nearly all
wet, and are so slippery that it is like
walking up an incline Of smooth ice to
climb them.

CASHIER WASHES MONEY.
Microbes on Paper Currency Destroye
BY IN Ammonia Bath.

Microbes on Paper Currency Destroyed
BY IN Ammonia Bath.
The fair metropolitan cashier has
added a new factor to her growing val
uation which will not prove SO desirable
a vile in the eyes of her employer as
the honesty and efficiency which have
won for her almost monopoly in the
business. 1t is the result of the microbe
craze, says the 0lobe-Democrat, and is
nothing less than washing all the money
she handles, and charging her employer
overtime, too. The discoverer of this
new way to enhance her usefulness and
cost is Annie Nesmyth, the money-taker
Of big downtown hotel. Miss
Nesmyth serves at night mostly, and,
while less money comes in then than
during the day, she is generally kept
busy enough. The money is often very
dirty and to the last degree repulsive
to handle. Now, the cashier is q trained
nurse resting" from her arduous pro.
fessional labors. After sick spell:
from handling the soiled currency she
concluded to resign. She was persuaded
not to by an increase of her salary and
permission to wash the money, So
every night sees a soup-plate of am.
monia water at her elbow, into which
each note as it arrives Is dropped. It
gets quick bath and then is laid out
on a piece Of flannel to dry as tenderly
as if it were her best piece of jewelry.
The water has to be changed two or
three times in night.

Lake Creek Placers.
Boise Statesman.

bOlSt SthtcsIndi.
j. M. Venable arrived Monday
evening from the placer property
that he is managing which is To-
Gated on Lake creek, five miles
above the hot springs and some 90
miles from Warren. This prop
perty is owned by the Lake Creek
Gold Mining Company. The COM
pany has 1900 acres of land, 600
acres of which is known to be good.
During the past two seasons two
bitches have been constructed, one
two miles in length, the other half
a mile. These take water from
Rimdam and Three Mile creeks
and have capacity of 1000 inches.
It is the intention of the company
to build another ditch of 1OOO-inch
capacity to divert the waters OF
Lake creek for its mining opera
tiOns.
The company has taken in 1900
feet of pipe, most of which is Ii
inches in diameter. 1t also has
two giants on the ground. Every
thing has been prepared for min
ing operations, and the work OF
sluicing will be inaugurated as
soon as the season opens next
spring.

ohiuuElh CltizcH.
The filing with the secretary of
state of articles of incorporation of
the Bay City Mining Company,
limited, brings to light very i'm
portant placer operation that has
been inaugurated near Lardo, in
Boise county. The company is
capitalized for $4,000 and is to
conduct general mining business.
The principal place of business
is LardO and directors named for
the first year are Edgar A. Cooley,
and Irving W Snyder of Bay City,
Mich; Robert M Wilson, of Boise,
r Burch Dolsen and II M st. Cyr
of Lardo.
There is a tract of placer land
controlled by the company EN-
bracing about IL square miles.
This ground has long been known
to be valuable, but it has remain
ed undeveloped all these years be-
cause no plan for getting water on
it had been devised until this com
pany took hold. The value of the
ground cannot be definitely ascer-
tanned until it is worked, but
enough is known of it to prove that
it will pay well. The gold is near
the surface, having been deposited
in glacial drifts. There is false
bedrock and what may be below
this is unknown.
The company has secured the
water rights and has bitches and
the land and it will now proceed
to develop property. The only To-
Gator on the land was j. w. Cope
land who had 20 acres and the
rights. He has been bought out.
The system of bitches for working
the ground will aggregate p miles.
Mr.. st. Cyr expects to begin min
ing March next.
Speaking in a general way Mr..
st. Cyr said he had been in all the
mining sections of the world but
he had never found another sec
ton that, in his opinion, equaled
the state of Idaho in mining oppor-
tunities.

NEW ROAD OVERSEER LAW
Provides for Election Oh the First
Monday in December.

No attention appears to have
been paid to the law passed at the
last session providing for the cleo
ton of road overseers on the first
Monday Of December of each year,
and probably very few people real
ize that such law is on the stat
ute books. Some of its provisions
are as follows:
SECTION l. That the qualified
electors of each road district in the
several counties of the state shall
meet on the first Monday in De-
cember of each year, at l o'clock
p. m. and proceed to elect road
Overseer.
Sec. 2. Notice of such election,
and the place of holding the same,
may be given by any five of the
qualified electors of the road dis
trict, by posting notices at least 10
days previous to the time of hold
ing such election, in at least three
of the most public places in such

ENEMIES OF ENGLAND.

Great Britain Has Fought and Conquered
Three Great POtentateN.
The three greatest potentates of mod
ern times have been England's strenu-
Gus antAgonists-viz., Philip H., Louis
XIV. and Napoleon. Of these three Ma
poleon was the most powerful, says
Blackwood's Magazine, Philip the most
deadly. The leaders under whom the
English rallied against these world-fa-
nous monarchs were, first, Elizabeth
and Drake; second, William and MARI
borough; Third, Pitt and Nelson. The
result OF the first of these great his
toric duels was to overturn the founda-
tons of Spanish empire, with its do
minion over the seas, it's vast colonial
possessions, its claim under a papal
bull to an exclusive monopoly of the
new world. The result of the second was
to decide which should be the residuary
legatee of the deceased Spanish power,
Trance or England; giving in the end
the succession to its old world domin-
ions to France, it's trade, maritime SUI
premacy and colonies mainly to Eng
land.
The result of the third was to shat
ter Napoleon's hopes of ascendancy by
sea, and to force him back on European
conquests, upon projects which related
to the old world and not to the new
Pitt and Nelson did not disappear un-
til that end was attained and England's
part in the later wars of Napoleon was
that, having, as Pitt said in almost his
closing words, saved herself by her
energy she saved Europe by her ex-
ample and assistance.
