A reminiscent article on Jenny
Lind and her home life has been pre-
pared by her daughter, Mrs. Ray
mond Maude, for publication in the
May Ladies' Home journal. 1t is
said to be filled with interesting
memories of the famous singer, and
is noteworthy also as being the first
view we have of her through the eye
of her adoIing daughter. Mrs
Maude brings to light the fact that
Jennie Lind was always nervous and
overstrung before events-just before
singing in a new opera or oratorio
but was quite calm when the very
moment of action arrived,

Alfred Southern came in from Quick
Silver Mountain last Saturday and
brought with him what he had taken
out as a fair average sample of the face
of the four.foot ledge where they had
cut it near the bottom of the old shaft.
1t was iron sulphides and as it would
scarcely show color in the horn it
did not look at all promising. But the
assay of the sample showed that it run
over $1,000. Mr.. Southern is so skep.
tical, however, that after suspecting
the assayer of putting up a job on him
and getting him to make another assay
for the same sample, which ran the
same, is now accusing himself of not
taking a fair sample. Some people

Jake Horn, who was in the city dur

the Knights of Pythias, has returned
to his placer mine. This property is on
the Middle Boise, and is known as the
Colorado bar. Several business men of
Fremont, Neb.. are interested with MIR.
Horn, a company having been organ
lied which is called the Colorado Bar
Gold Mining Co.
Mr.. Horn reported that the company
had determined to fume a portion of
their ditch at once.
A saw mill has been ordered. It will
be taken in as soon as possible and the
work of constructing the flume pushed
rapidly, SO that there may be an unin-
terrupted run next season.
So far the management has operated
under great difficulties. This season
trouble was experienced with the ditch
breaking. At several hillside points it
slipped away down TO bedrock. To
obviate this a mile tlume will be con-
structed on the hillsides. This win be
made large enough to carry $500 inches
of water. They have plenty of water,
but have been able to use only 500
inches, as the ditch would not carry
more without breaking. With the in
creased water supply they will run two
giants instead of one, as in the past.
The results this season, Mr.. Horn said,
we're satisfactory Notwithstanding the
breaks.
The bank of gravel which this com
pany owns is mile long, 70 feet high
and 300 feet wide. All of the gro1Gd
prospects we'll.

The STATE CONsTITUTIoN.-Ad dis
patch from Richmond says: The reso-
luton introduced by Mr.. Wallace in
the House of Delegates proposing to
make the most radical changes in the
constitution probably ever suggested
since the adoption of that instrument is
attracting attention. Mr.. Wallace's
suggestion is to amend the organic law
so as to strike from it clauses 2, 8, 10;
20 and 81 of the bill of rights They
provide In the order named that this
State shall ever remain a member of
the federal union; that the fed
eral laws and constitution are the
supreme laws of the land; that
neither slavery nor involuntary
servitude shall exist. The other two
clauses declare that all persons have
equal civil and political rights and that
the declaration of the political rights
is part of the constitution. The idea
of Mr.. Wallace, who is an unusually
bright young lawyer there, is to restore
the constitution to what it was prior to
the war. The bill of rights, sections of
which Mr.. Wallace proposes to elimi-
nate, was, this gentleman says, incor-
porate in the organic law by the
"Black-aud-Tan" convention presided
over by Judge Underwood. So far as
regards the declaration that the State
and people are now and will ever re-
main loyal to the federal government,
Mr.. Wallace says this was pledged by
Virginia before it was restored to the
Union after the war.

AN INTERESTING CAsE.-An interest
ing case involving the legitimacy of a
child and an estate valued at from
S15 900 to $4,000 was recently argued
at the December term of the Circuit
Court, Judge Nicol, of Prince William,

moved to Warrenton, had lived tc-
gether as man and wife, the woman
having been introduced az such by e.
dred and so recognized in his home by
visitors and servants and in the neigh.
borhood. No marriage record or evil
dence of marriage was produced, but it
was maintained that on these facts the
law presumed a marriage. After able
and exhaustive arguments by Eppa
Hunton, jr., of the local bar, and A. W.
Armstrong, of Alexandra, represent
ing the woman and her infant, and by
James V. Brooke. assisted by John
Keith, counsel for Eldred, the judge re-
served his opinion and decree was
taken referring the case to the court for
decision in chambers.
