Buffalo Hump ID . Bonanza.
The Lewiston Tribune of the
End inst. says:
H. T. Swan arrived in the city
from Florence yesterday. Mr.. Swan
is an experienced miner, and when
the Buffalo Hump strike was made
he visited the property. He be-
lieves the strike will develop into
big bonanza, and says that in hie
judgment it is the biggest and best
mining proposition in the west.
On August 22nd more than 3OC
locations had been made and over
500 miners were in the new camp
The locations were all made on one
ledge, which has been traced fol
miles. The ledge at the point Of
the first discovery is located only
about $50 yards from the Dixie
trail. The country in that locality
is extremely rough, which accounts
for the bonanza remaining so long
undiscovered. Mr.. Swan says a
permanent mining town is springine
into existence, and a store has al
ready been established.

a rancher near Cataldo, who died
about three weeks ago under pecu
liar circumstances. He had beer
working in the bayfield, and wher

of tea, became suddenly il! and IL
40 minutes was dead. The neigh

wife placed under arrest, awaiting
the finding of the coroner's jury.

owing to the fact that the stomach
of deceased was sent to Spokane

analysed. Returns were received
the first of the week and Coroner
Matchette held the inquest Wednes
dav. The report OF the jury was
to the effect that deceased came t.
his death by poison, administered
by his wife. Enough poison was
foud in the stomach to kill elgh'
men.

the grand jury of the district cour'
which meets at Murray next week
