w. T. Hireen, manager Of
the Idaho. Comstock mines at
Dixie, Idaho, who has been in
the city for several days, ex.
poets to leave for the proper.
ty tomorrow.
"The Idaho. Comstock new.
er looked BETTER" said Mr..
Hireen last evening. "There
are 10 claims in the group, all
more or less developed, and
with splendid showings on
each.
"Developement has been
confined chiefly to the Com.
stock claim. On this proper.
ty there is a double compart.
ment shaft 145 feet deep, with
drift and cross.cuts aggre4 at.
ing over 500 feet. A steam
hoist capable of sinking 900
feet is in operation on the
ground. The ore is teamed
from the bin to the mill, three
quarters of a mile distant, the
location of the mill being de
termined with a view of hav.
ing it at the most convenient
point for handling ore from
the different claims with least
haul.
"The Dillinger ground also
looks promising, showing over
two feet of exceptionally high
grade free. milling ore, which
is being followed by an in.
cline shaft, and had reached a
depth of 81 feet when left
camp 10 days ago.
"Drifts from each side of
this shaft at the 65.foot level
continue in ore, and with the
quantity already uncovered
we have STOPPING ground sui.
ficient to supply the mill in.
definitely.
"The mill is operated by
water power, water being con.
veyed in a box f1ume set deep
enough under ground to avoid
any possibility of freezing, the
supply being taken from what
is known as Rhett creek at a
point two miles distant, and
furnishes sufficient power for
all purposes. 1t is the inten-
ton of the company to at once
add more stamps and operate
on a larger scale than hereto
fore.

WAKE UP, MONTPELIER,

' Hon. II. W. Lyford of Warren was in
the city yesterday in his official capac-
ity as one of the commissioners of the
French estate and we learned that the
project Of building an electric railroad
from Newport TO Rutland via Water
bury and the Mad River Valley is by
no means abandoned. The people
through that section of the country are
satisfied that the plan of building an
electric road from Montpelier through
Middlesex. Moretown and Waitstield to
Warren will not be carried out. at
least not this year, and are looking to
other sources for transportation facil-
tiles. There is bare possibility that
the "City down the creek. will wake
up some fine morning and see its pros
poets of becoming u terminal of the
Mad River Valley electric road fading
away into the distant past.

A Communication.

EDITOR TELEGRAM -
We have been little late in concen-
:rating our forces after election and get
ting permanently established rs we
have done in the last few days. We
found some over five hundred in our
party that voted for Mr.. Swasey but
some have dropped out, others have
been thrown out, so as to reduce our
number to the old and ancient 400.
None can be admitted except there be q
vacancy, and they must pass rigid ex-
animation as will be seen later. We
found ali classes including the French,
Italian, Irish, Yankee and very few
Scotch. A few doctors some lawyers
and many tiuancers but no ministers.
All kinds of Christian faith and mostly
sober serious thinking law abiding men,
who met and adopted the tollowing:
We here assemble and agree thai
hereafter our name shall be 400, and no
person shall be admitted TO this party
except in case of vacancy. and there
must be a standard bearer to the fol-
lowing rules -
Must be a legal voter; must read and
write; must be moderate in all things ;
must be able to figure taxation; must be
true to his own family; must use his
own judgment; must have but one side
10 him, and that the world must know !;
must shun cranks, and wind mills; must
not steal from his neighbor, not even his
spring water; must be man not a
mouse; must DO one of the 400 to be in
it.
Watch our platform. Watch our pre-
dietions. Watch our principles. Watch
this, our 400. SCRIBE.

A Comrades Interest.

Nix. P. j ROGERS .tt
Barre, Vt.

Dear sir: E.,
While a volunteer soldier at .Chicka-
nagua last summer and on provost de-
tail on the S. w. line of the park.
>tI oiled away by myself and found
among the trees in a rather lonesome
place, Il school house.
This was out of the common order of
findings in that cline as you know, so
out of curiosity approached only to
find the door open, leaves scattered up
on the floor, while desks and benches
were piled or thrown in wild confusion.
Upon the board black board, the wall,
windows, stove and door was traced the
names. company, regiment and state,
together with the pos1otfice Of scores of
boys. who like me. had found this spot
in their rambles.
You or some friend had been there
and following the example set, left
your signature upon the wall. There |
singled it from perhaps a hundred
others and now like an echo from the
South comes this letter from the End
Nebraska.
look back upon our camp life as an
educator, in great measure Il school in
which we learned the value Of liberty,
and thrown among men from very near
ly all quar,eas of the United States we
learned more of what we really, as a
people are. -
My observation proved lhat:.the sec
,ional feeling relating to the civil war
or arising out of it, is that so far as the
younger class of men of the South are
concerned give scarce thought TO the
bitter hatred Of the past. -,
The 3rd Tenn. troops of So years ago
occupied the same gronnd. j.
Any ideas of the South have under
gone a change since saw the advan-
tages or perhaps had better say disad-
vantages they have, the most iguorant
and backward of our people Nor'h are
ahead of the foremost | saw South.
From the time we left ILL.,, passing
through kentucky at night, saw only
two country school houses, one at
Crawford Sp.ings, the other of which |
have written.
Of course we saw the toughest part
of Georgia but had the South the all
vancement of the North all of her peo-
pie would get at least taste.
Perhaps few W ords concerning my
self would not be amiss In this letter.
Rhode is my name Charles }. Nebras-
ka is my native state, harinxgg sfrivevi

Presidas II ! Meeting oftho Society for
the Prevention Of Consumption.
The Latest Scientific Data on the
Cause and Cure of Consumption,
Presented by Sir William Broad
bent.

The appalling ravages of consump-
ton in England have led physicians
and philanthropic persons to organize
into a society having in view the pre-
vention of the disease by the elimina-
ton of its causes and by education OF
the people as to the wide spread dan
ger OF contamination. In the remarks
introducing Sir William Broadbent's
speech it was stated.
"Of all enemies to human life In
this country the tubercle bacillus is
the most powerful. By far the COM
monest and most fatal mode of its at
tack is of course the invasion of the
lungs. But it may settle in the joints,
producing white selling, on in the
spine, thus producing nine-tenths of all
humpbacks and spinal assesses; In
the skin and its glands, when it is
called scrofula; and again in the case
of children in the bowels and their
glands; and upon the brain coverings,
producing meningitis"
Sir William Broadbent said: eve
learn from the returns of the Registrar
General, that nearly 10000 deaths are
registered every year as due to tuber-
culosis, in England and Wales alone,
and to this number may be added a
considerable percentage of the deaths
