The DeLamar nugget. [volume] (DeLamar, Idaho) 1891-1900, 1897-10-29

"Out here in Idaho they have intr O.
duced hugging societies to swell the
church treasury, and a Moscow man
gives the following scale of prices
Girls under 16, II cents for hug OF
two minutes or ten cents for a short
squeeze; from 16 to 20, so cents; school
marms A. cents; another mans wife, 81;
widows, according to looks, from 9
cents to SO; old maids 3 cents apiece or
two for cents and no limit of time.
Preachers are not charged. Editors
pay in advertisements, but are not al
lowed to participate until everybody
else is through. And even then they
are not allowed to squeese anything
but old maids and schoolmarms."
The above was "handed i'm not nee
essarily for publication, but we reprint
it anyhow. In hugging, as in every
thing else, it will be noticed editors get
the last of it, which, in this case is, un-
doubtedly the worst of it, while the
preachers get the best of everything
and without charge. This is rank in
justice. We resent, emphatically, the
Moscow mans classification of school
marms. 1t provokes a suspicion that
the Moscow "marms" are hardly up to
the average.-Ex.

His Queer Career.

William Greiffenstein, who died at
Burnett, l. T., recently, was known
throughout the west as the father" OF
Wichita. He was one of the German
forty miners who came to America after
the abortive revolution of that year,
and penetrating to the western frontier
of Kansas territory entered into friend
" relations with the Shawnees, Della
wares, Pottawatomies and Comanches.
Through his marriage with the beauti-
full daughter of the chief of the Chey-
ennes, a college graduate, Greiffenstein
acquired the present town site of Wichi-
Ia. where this German pioneer was des
tined to serve four terms as mayor. In
1879 he was elected to the state legisla-
ture, but upon his return to Wichita he
lost so much money after the collapse
of its latest boom that he emigrated TO
Indian Territory, where he began all
over again. Exchange.

A Gun For Bicycle Riders.

The gun that every wheelman has
been looking for has at last come into
existence. 1t is made of rubber and
shoots ammonia, but in so deadly
fashion that man would quite as soon
be hit with bullet, provided the
charge struck his eyes. 1t is the inven-
ton of J. ]. Bailey, Jr., of Colorado.
The pneumatic ammonia pistol, which
is its full name, is nicely constructed
of hard rubber and requires no tools TO
keep it in perfect form, save an ordinary
bicycle wrench and pump. Inside Is
rubber bag which will hold several
ounces of ammonia. With the aid Oh
compressed air enough ammonia to form
what is called single shot is forcibiy
elected from this pistol distance OF
100 feet, provided SO long shot is de-
sired. This indicates with what terrific
force the ammonia must dart forth from
the muzzle of the pistol

THE LARGEST SAPPHIRE.
It Is the First of the Kind Found In
Idaho.

IT Is the First of the Kind Found In
Idaho.
An Idaho miner recently brought
stone to the miners bureau, Denver,
which was pronounced a sapphire OF
the purest water and the largest ever
seen. The gem was nearly cube, being
about ! % inches thick, y inches wide
and 2 inches long. 1t was much water
worn, showing plainly the pebbly con-
formation gradually assumed by gems
found in the beds of mountain torrents,
the edges being very much rounded.
This is the first sapphire of any size dis
covered in Idaho. They are frequently
found in Montana, and some fine stones
have come from there. The owner of
this stone is operating placer mines IN
Idaho, and the stone was found Ill the
tailings and preserved on account OF It's
bright blue color. News of the find
reached New York, and an agent or
Tiffany, after examining the stone,
offered SO, 500 for it. The owner decided
that if it was worth that in the rough
it was probably worth much more and
is now on his way to London, where he
expects to realize it's full value.
The stone is almost perfect, the only
blemish being fracture on one side ex-
tending less than one-eighth Of an inch
into the stone. Denver Republican.
