Pat White, last Saturday night, had
slip and fall on the ice from which
he received severe injury of the hip
joint, liable to lay him up for several
months. He was removed to the coun-
ty hospital at Silver City on Sunday.
Pat is an old-timer in Owyhee, has been
a great wood and charcoal rustler in
his time, has often felt "the raps of
Darby" and many ups and downs. OF
late years he has "lost his nip" and
never missed nip either when some
one said "come fellows" The county
owes it to the poor man to see that he
be well cared for.

after its inauguration and is new evil
IDENTIFY growing into an institution
which the people of Southern Idaho
can contemplate with satisfaction.
With an able corps of teachers, an ex-
cellent library and situated in quiet
town amidst pleasant people, it is a
very choice place for students to live
and pursue q course of studies and
training to prepare for teaching or to
fit them for almost any calling or pro
fession. The cost of living in Albion is
low; the railroads in the state and the
stages from the Short Line to Albion
carry students at half fare. The school
is state institution, and state pride as
well as self interest should prompt
people to send their boys and girls
there rather than to school elsewhere.

The town of San Francisco is still
struggling hard 40 raise the paltry sum

Golden Jubilee, and it looks as though
it would not make the rifle. San Fran
cisco has scores of millionares in her

his own pocket, but public spirit is SO
dead there and getting rapidly deader,
if the expression may be allowed, that
it is next to impossible to start any
public enterprise without roping in the

it will be merely cheap John, one

The act of 1878 was the most sinister
piece of legislation ever put through
the legislature of great free nation.
1t was procured by fraud as dark and
deep, though by methods less bloody as
that by which Napoleon throttled the
French Republic by the coup d'etat of
1851. Victor Hugo called that "The
Crime of the Nineteenth Century"
But iJ was a light offense compared
with the crime OF 1878 against the Am
erican people. The financial coup d.
etat which men like Blaine ond Conll-
ling and Vorhees voted for without
knowing it, and which Grant signed OBJ
livious of the fact that he was wiping
out half of the debt-paying resources of
his countrymen, was the champion
cheat, the supreme swindle of modern
times.

Hauling Woo by Steam.

The DeLamar, New, Lode says:
"a subject that has been talked of a
great deal within the past week is the
new scheme Of delivering wood to the
DeLamar mill. 1t is the object now of
the DeLamar Company to haul their
own wood and this will be done by
means of two steam wagons. One of
these wagons will haul a load of from
fifty to seventy five cords at trip and
travel at tie rate of four miles an hour.
"One of the new machines will be in
operation in about month from now
and the other will soon follow. They
are built to haul load up fifteen per
cent. grade, which will enable them to
pass over any part of the road loaded,
that is now near the timber.
"As will be seen in another column,
the Company are advertising for 100
wood choppers to commence work i'm
and the first place selected
is that near the Vietti saw MILL from
which the wood will be obtained. There
is but one contract out now with par
ties for 1000 cords and when that is
filed, hauling wood with horses to the
DeLamar mill will be thing of the
past"

The birds that Sheriff Crocheron has
in his cage, or three of them at least
are moulting their feathers at present
and are not as cuddy-up as.they were.
''Red," the bad man, got one of his
"spells," and abused the sheriff in his
choicest biilircsg.te because his keeper
would not let him sit in the front par
lor and finally got so abusive that his
boarding boss decided to put him in
one of the tanks for while Then the
two Bruneau robbers Clipped in and
told the sheriff they didn't know
whether he would or not. That settled
it. All of them were promptly stripped,
searched and slowed away. The search
revealed nothing worse than bottle
of vitriol intended for the sheritf's
eyes. Crocheron says that instead of
letting them order what they want for
their meals, he is now feeding them on
nice sweet bacon, excellent bread and
the very purest water to be had, and
that unless they show disposition to
behave, the datfodils will be blooming
again before they even sit in the back
parlor let alone the front. By the way,
Crocheron forgot to call at the NUGGET
office and get box of cigars for Red,
as we asked him to do.

We all look on with anxious eyes
When father carves the duck,
And mother almost always sighs
When father carves the duck.
Then all of us prepare to rise
And hold our b. bs before our eyes
And be prepared for some surprise
When father carves the duck.
He braces up and grabs fork
When e'er he carves duck
And won't allow a soul to talk
Until he's carved the duck,
The fork is jabbed into the sides,
Across the breast the knife he slides,
And every careful person hides
From flying chips Of duck.
The platter alwas seems to slip
When father carves a duck,
And how he makes the dishes skip!
Potatoes fly amuck,
The squash and cabbage leap in space
We get some gravy on our face,
And father mutters Hindoo grace
When e'er he carves ducn.
We thus have learned to walk around
The dining room and pluck
From off the window sills and walls
Our share of fathers duck,
While father growls and blows and jaws
And swears the knife was full of flaws,
And mother jeers at him because
He Couldn't carve duck.

THE PARIS IS SAFE !

STEAMER 800 MILES TO THE

The Columbia and Minneapolis Are
Securing the Ocean in Quest of the
Spanish Ships Headed For the
Northern Coast-Detailed War News.
WASHINGTON, April 81.

General Miles, commander-in-ch
of the army, has arranged with the
Cuban representatives here for Lieu
tenant Rowan's safe conduct to the
insurgents camp. Rowan landed on
Cuban soil on Monday. 1t is under
stood the insurgents will be fully
equipped by the United States and
they will move to Havana in CO.
operation with our fleet. In this
manner the Spaniards will be at
tackled from land and water stimuli
taneously.
The Navy department is anxiously
awaiting news from the Spanish fleet
at Cape de Verde islands and the
other ships of the enemy now on the
high seas. The latest adyices from
st. Vincent, where the United States
Consul is still at his post, is to the
effect that the fleet is still at Cape
Verde islands, stripped for battle and
ready to sail. 1t is believed however,
among naval experts here that Spain
is retaining her ships at that point to
draw the attention of this govern
ment from the movements of Spain's
other ships, the Pelayo, Carlos V and
other Spanish armed ships.
The department has received no
definite information as to the where
at outs of these vessels, and it is
believed to be the intention of Spain
to send force of vessels to lombard
northern cities on our coast. To
avoid such a contingency the plan
outlined yesterday in drawing from
the squadron at Cuba, was decided
upon. The movements of the Col
umbia and Minneapolis in New Eng
land ports is in line with this policy.
They will watch for the first appear
ance of the enemy.
The dispatches say the Pelayo left
Cadiz on April 9TH, and if her desti-
nation was Cape de Verde she should
have arrived there several days ago
and the fact that she has not arrived
causes suspicion on the part of our
naval experts.
There is little apprehension here
for the safety of the Paris. She is
now considered out of reach of the
Spaniards.
The state department has been
notified that United States Consul
Williams has left Manila, and arrived
at Hong Kong yesterday. The Philip
pine insurgents are massing around
the city of Manila and a Spanish
massacre may occur at any moment.

The coming event of the far famed melo-

Kaier's opera house Mahanoy City, next
Friday evening, is one of the most important
that has ever been played in this county.
The aggregation of players which appear in
the various characters can safely be said TO
be unequalled by any organization now be
fore the public. The magnitude Of the pro-
duction is sufficient in itself to attract at
tention, and it will be presented with pre-
cisely the same scenery, costumes and
pauphernalia used in the original produc-
tion. The great cast which has become
world-renowned, still remains. The thrilling
and human story Of The Sporting Duchess,
framed as it is in the most sumptuous scenic
settings of modern times, is said to keep an
audience spell bound from the rise to the
fall of the curtain. A beautiful scene is a
military ball, showing the English officers
and court ladies in number of strikingly
beautiful costumes, those of the officers being
the full dress uniform of the English army

AN EMlSSARY In CUBA
Lieutenant Rowan Has Gone to Confer
With the Insurgent General,
Calixto Garcir,

Kingston, Jamaica, April 27.-First
Lieutenant Andrew S. Rowan, of the
Nineteenth United States infantry,
under orders from the war department,
was landed on the Cuban coast some
where west Of Santiago, probably, be-
fore dawn on Monday. His Cuban
guide. and an open sailboat were used.
The guides have not returned.
Lieutenant Rowan is on his way to
the camp of General Calixto Garcia.
He will represent the war department
in arranging for the cooperation of the
insurgents in the invasion of eastern
Cuba by the forces Of the United
States. The time and place Of invasion
will be controlled by events and the
character of Lieutenant Rowans dis
patches.
Lieutenant Rowan was detailed from
the bureau Of information for this
dangerous service-dangerous because
in his civilian dress he is liable to be
treated as a spy. He speaks Spanish
and knows Cuba, having written
book on the subject. Moreover, he is
an expert map maker.
Lieutenant Rowan left Washington
under instant orders on April 9. He
was directed TO wait mere, prepared 10
go to Porto Rico or Cuba. AS he went
to eastern Cuba it IS inferred that a
blow will be struck there before one is
struck at Porto Rico.
With him he took an official Spanish
section map of eastern Cuba with
emendations made by the war depart
ment photographers. The expectation
is that General CaliXto Garcia will dis
pose of his forces to cover a landing
of United States troops as prearranged.
A courier with Lieutenant Rowans
first dispatches to the war department
win probably leave General Garcia's
camp next week.
