PARADISE BOY FOUND DEAD
SUPPOSED TO HAVE FALLEN
FROM A HORSE.
The Animal Showed Up Riderless
and Search Showed the Little Eel
low In the Field Stone Dead.

Logan, Aug. 16.-News reached here
last evening of a sad accident which
happened at Paradise on Friday last,
as a result of which Lester Macarthur,
the 9-year- old son of Mr.. John A. Nc
Arthur, was killed. On that day he
went with his father to the harvest
field, about two miles distant from his
home, and after eating dinner with the
men in the field, he started home on a
horse that was considered perfectly
trusty. Some two or three hours later
the horse returned to the field riderless,
and the father. alarmed, sent another
son to search for his missing brother.
About half way home, at the foot Of a
small hill, he found the little fellow
stone dead. 1t is thought the horse
stumbled in going down the declivity
and threw him off, instantly killing
him, as his neck and several bones upon
one side of his body were broken. The
burial services were held on Sunday at
Paradise

FUNERAL OF PAUL SMITH.
Just Starting Upon the Journey of
Life and Was Stricken.

Kaysville, Aug. 16.-Yesterday after
noon at o'clock the funeral services
over the remains of the>l late Paul Smith
were held in Kaysville meeting house.
The sad circumstances surrounding
the young mans sudden death, and
his universal popularity, drew out a.
very large attendance at the services.
Much sympathy is expressed for the
parents of the young man, who were
visiting in southern Idaho when the
news reached them
The speakers at the services were
Charles Cottrell, jr., of Salt Lake, and
Bishop Barton and James H. Linford
of Kaysville. each Of whom spoke in
terms of merited eulogy Of the good
character the honesty and integrity of
the deceased.
The funeral procession was long. An
impressive scene was the presence of
IS young ladies dressed in white, who
formed an aisle down which the bier
was borne. Each carried a bouquet,
which was placed upon the grave.
Paul Smith was in his 21st year and
was a general favorite. 1t is a curious
coincidence that he and the late John
A. Lewis were warm friends and COM
rades, both types of physical strength
and manhood, and yet within two
weeks time both died unnatural
deaths.

Of his that is bringing the matter to
a focus. Suit will be commenced by

Nelson Placer Mines May Pass Into

Baker City Democrat: Attorney zera
Snow of Portland, one of the principal
owners of the Nelson placer mines and
Auburn canal, yesterday visited the
ditch for the purpose of estimating the
amount of water, now at its lowest
season, supplied - the canal by Elk
and Salmon creeks.
It was found that Elk creek is run
ming y miners inches of mountain fluid
and Salmon creek is carrying about 40
inches. While the measurement Of
water was made in a somewhat rough
or crude manner, the result is undoubt-
eddy very nearly approximately cor
rect.
Mr. Snow and his associates are now
negotiating the sale of this pioneer
placer property, canal and all bitches,
and IL the near future a complete
transfer VIII probably be made to east
ern capitalists. The entire property
may pass into the hands of the eastern
In the event that this sale is not
consunmated, the present owners will

The Nelson placers are among the
oldest and most substantial dlggings in
the state of Oregon. The property,
which was first operated in about the
year 1863, is located something over
eight miles west of this city, on the
foothills just underneath the towering
Baisley mountains. The Auburn canal,
carrying water from Alpine streams, is
in length in the neighborhood OF 10 or
II miles. Jack Bulger, deceased, and
S. b. Baisley, the Nelson's and the Cali
fornia company have all in turn taken
out of these diggings tens of thousands
of dollars in coarse golG and nuggets
For the past seven or eight years the
property has been. operated on a more
limited scale, but with good success.

An Ample Money Base.

A Minneapolis business man who
was carried away by the free silver
craze in 1896, was asked by The
Tribune, the other day, if he could
now see any hope for the success OF
the 16 to / propagandism. He said
he could not, nor was it now desir.
able, as it had been demonstrated
that gold, with its rapidly increas-
ing production. would furnish a
broad enough money base without
the help of silver, save as subsidiary
coinage.
This is about the conclusion that
all the sensible and practical men
who advocated free silver when the
craze vas at its height, have come
to. The plentifulness of money dur
ing the past year and the return Of
prosperity under the gold standard
have convinced them that we can
have good times without free coin.

be no gold famine. New gold pro.
ducing regions are being discovered
