Tales of Clittering Wealth

was the information w. +. Travis
Of the Utah, Nevada & California
Stage line communicated to his
friends in this city yesterday. He
has just come in from there and
brings reports of startling gold as
says-assays running up over
81 900 to the ton.
The rush to Buffalo Hump is a
reminder of the gold discoveries of
early days. The camp is in the
Bitter Root region in the Idaho
panhandle. Grangeville, near Mt.
Idaho, is the nearest point of any
consequence. 1t is necessary to
stage it from Lewiston to Grange
Vile and thence into the new camp.
The first gold discovery was
made by f. r.. Rigley and Sam
Robbins. The latter died just two
weeks ago. They sunk a hole down
only % feet on their claim and i'm
mediately it was bonded for 1915
600, they receiving s25, 900 in hard
cash with the understanding that
the balance was to be paid quarter

nEN STRIKE At NEWS0ME,
hd6s Ninety Feet Wide, Ore Similar
to Relief Crock.

G. A. Devens returned yesterday
after . rough trip to Elk City. He
received advices last week from
that point to the effect that a big
strike had been made near New
some, and it would repay investi-
cation.
Among the men who represent
capital in one form or another for
investment in mining properties
here none have beenrmore active
than the young men from Seattle
known by the firm name Of Ian
caster & Devens. One or the other
has been constantly on the trail
since their arrival few months
ago. Mr.. Devens, who was horse
back, found the roads getting
pretty soft. About six miles this
side of NewsOme creek slough
has been formed of mud, snow and
water. From Newsome he pushed
on to Elk City to meet the men
who were to pilot him to the new
strike. just before he reached
Newsome the Elk City stage upset,
throwing out its passengers but in
juring no one seriously. Near
News0me there is q steep bank on
the opposite side of the creek up
which the stage has to climb.
When it got to the top, the snow
on the edge Of the bank gave way,
letting the whole outfit down into
the creek six feet. The only way
to travel in that country now is to
get up at daylight and stop when
the sun gathers power.
The region Mr.. Devens was TAX
en- to is situated north Of Buffalo
Hump in the Newsome district.
The exact locality is at present be,
ing kept quiet. He found men
working ON a ledge ninety feet
wide, which crops out for 30 feet
on the surface. The ore bears 8
strong resemblance to Relief creek
rock, but is more heavily stained
with iron. No assays have beer
yet made, as but little work ha
been done. As soon as the locator
get we'll beneath the surface assay
will be taken and made public.

A SURPLUS OF STA.
The Auditors Office Paid That
Amount to the County
Treasury Last Quarter.

Some slight idea of the growth
OF old Idaho county may be formed
from the amount of business trans
acted in the Office of the auditor
and recorder in the last quarter,
ending April 8, 1899. After pay
ing the salary Of that official and
his deputy hire, there was a sur
plus Of STA for the quarter, which
amount was covered into the coun-
ty treasury. This showing, in
comparison with past experience,
speaks volumes for the great and
growing interests of the county,
and for the efficiency and integrity
of Mr.. darlington, the occupant OF
the Office.
The revenues of the Office are
derived from the recording of pa
pers, &c. All quartz, placer and
water right locations, deeds, mort
Cages and all other instruments
filed by individuals for official rec
ord constitute the source from
which the revenues are derived

never Bills such as public building bills
have to bs considered In committee of

BY the House alter they are reported from
the committee of the whole. The proper
way to have done would have been to
consider iuscom nittee of the whols only
80 many bills as could Afterwards be
passed by the HOUSE within the time al.
lowed by the special order. But when the
committee of the whole got once started
in Its work it couli not stop. Ihos,
whose bills had not been reached were so
active and anxious that they would not
allow the COMMITTEES to rise and report.
so the committee OF the whole kept on
preparing bills for the House until so
late an hour that there was no time for
the House to act on the bills which were
reported. OF sixty-seve bills only two
got through the House. The COMMITTEES
Of the whole afforded "A partial applics-

however, that the committee will assist

Children are frail oarks upon Life's
