MEMORIAL SERVICES.
The House Holds n Session on Sunday
10 Honor Memories of Deceased
Representatives.

Washington, June 30-The house of
representatives held a session Sunday
to pay tribute to the memories of
the late Representative Amos Cum
mings, of New York, and the late
Representative Peter j. Otey, of Vir-
ginia. By special direction of Secre-
tary Moody, the Marine band was in
attendance in the lobby in the rear
of the hall and rendered an appro-
pirate musical programme. The wild
ows and families of the deceased oc-
crpied the speakers pew in the gall
leries and delegations from Typo
graphical union, No. 6, of New York;
the Letter Carriers association and
the New York Pilots association
came here to honor Mr.. Cummings
memory. The public galleries were
well hlled. The eulogies were ex-
ceedingly impressive, especially that
delivered by Mr.. Cannon Qn.), the
veteran chairman of the appropria-
tons committee, who paid tribute
from the heart to the lofty charac-
ter and manly, honest character of
Mr.. Cummings.
Although services have been held in
the house on Sunday on previous oc-
casions, notably the death of Henry
Winter Davis, this was the first in 90
years that Sunday was made a legis-
latiye day and the house met on the
Sabbath with a speaker, clerks and
all other paraphernalia which ac-
company the actual transaction of
legislative business. Frequently in
times past the house has been in SEES.

tions of the legislative days of Sat
urday and the journal on Monday
showed no session on the Sabbath.
In this case, however. the journal of
Sunday will be that of regular legis-
lative day. In order to find a prece-
dent for the session Sunday the
house managers went back to 1871,
when the house held session on
March 2 because of the pressure OF
public business two days before the
final adjournment. March 4.

Road Master j. T Snesban super
intended the distribution of.the men
from Oskaloosa and remained with
the last gang that went to work east
of Hedrick. The men in this section
as in most,of the others went to work
with a will and an effort that showed
as much interest on their part as on
that ofsthe management of the road.
General Manager r. Law went to
Winfield and gave the details of the
work hist personal ats ntion from
that station.
The rain came down from the day
light hour at which the men started
their work. 1t was barely light
enough to see when the first spikes
were pulled and the rails of the old
B. & W. main line were showed into
place that had previc usly been made
for them. The spikers followed fast
after andIthe work of making stand
ard guage.road of the narrow guage
was seemingly simple feat after all.
The work inIalmost all sections pro-
crossed more rapidly than would
seem possible. One of the sections
had completed it's work by eleven
O'Clock a. m. and a number of them
had been done by the noon hour.
The best records show that the men
covered about one and three fourths
to two miles in an hour. This rate
of progress could not be maintained
during the day, however, on account
of the continuous downpour that &C.
Cured. The men certainly deserve
the highest of compliments for the
way in which they worked under the
most distressing of circumstances.
First Broad Guage Train Out.
The first broad guage train out of
Oskaloosa wassthe O. B, & @ train
which brought the extra workmen
here from Ottumwa. 1t was run as
the regular passenger No. "a, and
leaving Oskaloosa nearly seven hours
late arrived in Burlington about two
a. M, having been delayed only
about ten hours enroute. Most of
this delay was caused by small
strike that was inaugurated near
Brighton and to the accidental de-
railingl OF a car on freight train
near Coppock. The train left Burl-
ington at p. m. Saturday afternoon
and went to Ottumwa where it re-
NAMED until after midnight Saturday
night. Here 1t picked up 121 o. B. &
Q. section men in charge of Mr.. Jno.
O. Calvin, the 20" roadmaster and
brought them to Oskaloosa over the
Rock Islsrd tracks arriving here at
1880 Sunday morning. At this station
the men were transferred to marrow
guage train and scattered along the
line to begin work. They fell to the
job like veterans, and along with the
other four hundred employed on the
contract, soon had the little railroad
80 hopelessly wide that 1t would have
been unable to recognize its former
self. The train was pulled by engine

Places Robbed.

The thieves which usually follow a
big circus got in some good work in
the city Friday night. The exteat of
their work Is not yet fully known,
but the city in general is several hun
dred dollars poorer o.day. Some
time about midnight the thieves,pried
open onesof the east windows of the
Huber Kalbach Hardware Company.
The window is the one farthest north
and wasI close TO the alley. The
catch on the inside was twisted COM
pletely off and entrance was gained
with no trouble at all, Once inside
the thieves made their way to the
front show case where the knives
and revolvers are kept, and selected
is ofithe best razors in the house and
ID revolvers varying in value from 81
to s12. Reaching into the knife case
theylscooped out lot of them, the
exact number not being known. The
men were particular in the choice of
the ir booty as only the very best was
taken. The loss will be something
over 500.
A little. later in the night the glass
in the door OF the Richie carpenter
shop on South Second street was
smashed in aud the door unlocked.
Tools of various sorts amounting to
a considerable sum were taken, most
OF the missing things being chisels
and knives. Mr.. Richie has not been
able to figure up the extent of the
theft as everything was left in great
disorder.

though necessarily slow was made in
good shape aud the newly laid track
was as smooth as could be. This
was due to the work of the AIDING
machine, and to the skill of the men
employed on the job. The accom-
modations we're all that could have
been asked for. While the trackmen
houndered in the rain and mud those
aboard toasted their shins at a cheer
full wood fire and snapped tales of
their experiences in other wars. AT
noon and at supper time they joined
heartily with the boys of the ranks
and enjoyed the sandwiches aud eggs
and coffee as much as though they
too had been at work. While the day
was fraught with many hardships 1t
was also an occasion of many funny
occurrences, and was swe etened with
unusual good humor from one end to
the other.
Cheers for The Bio Train,
The first broad gauge train started
over the line running southeast from
oskaloosa picked the men up as it
came to them along the line that had
been completed. AS the standard
gauge engine and coaches passed the
stations it was greeted with the cheers
OF the people who had braved the
downpour of the elements to see the
first "big train" pass through. The
people along the right of way from
the doors and windows of the nearby
homes shouted their approval as the
traih passed along the line of the
completed track.
The east bound train met the west
bound regular train, "the Fox" at
Coppack, and also the freight train.
The workmen were again called from
their coaches at this point to build
switch so that the trains could pass
each other. This was after darkness
had come and the work progressed
by the light OF numerous lanterns.
Conductor Goodspeed, who had
charge of the first standard gauge
train out OF Oskaloosa, also brought
the first train into the city. He took
charge Of the new train west bound
at Coppack, and came west with it.

IDAHO NICKEL MINES
ATTRACTING ATTENTION
Some Promising Ledees Of the Metal
Said to Have Been Found in
Lemhi County

The Lemh (ldaho) Herald has a good
deal to say Of the nickel deposits in that
county. From our contemporary we have
the following:
The large veins OF nickel bearing ores
found in the Blackbird and Yellow Jacket
districts this county, are attracting consid-
cradle attention from capitalists, and two
or three nickel experts have lately been
here to inspect the deposits. Nothing at
the time was said of the movement, which
the interested parties preferred to keep
temporarily secret. II is not yet known
that any good results will follow the ne
gotiations, but il is known that some good
properties are under consideration and
that Lemh county Idaho. promises to show
up one of the largest and richest nickel
mines in the United States.
There is today a vigorous activity in
the nickel market. This is due to the
use Of nickel steel alloy, the scarcity of
the nickel making ;hc use Of the alloy

unns for mines engine and pump cylin-

various stages OF development and some
are showing the world that within their
lines ore bodies Of unlimited richness
await the pick of the enterprising pros
pector and miner.
Il. O. Fournier and George Trucott,
who own four claims there and are anx-
ious to either buy or locate more, have
done more development work than any
other two men III that part of the coun-
try. Their claims are known as the
Bullion, Ildorado. Standard and Last
Chance. The ledge on which the claims
are locatdc can be traced distance of
$1,000 feet on the surface. The for
nation OF the country is pnciss and gran

OF being true hssurcs.
Martin Sorcnson has two claims close
to the Fourner- Trucott group, and
Messrs. Young and Simkins OF Bannacls
have another pair in the suburbs Of the
whole line Just north of the Young
Simkins property ID. W. Fanchcr has
three claims which no one can buy at
present for less than $4,000. By and
by they will cost more.

the payshoot which in places is only six
inches wide while in others it is four
feet. The vein, however, is from IL to

the mouth of the tunnel shaft has been
sunk to a depth of SO feet and from
the bottom crosscut has been driven into
the vein. The vein at that point has an
average width of eight feet. The ore
there assays 1877 per cent in copper,

assay, made by W. T. Taylor of Dillon,

SIS in gold and 80 ounces in silver.
The Standard has a shaft IS feet deep
and a payshoot from I8 inches to four
feet wide From the grass roots to the
bottom the ore carries gold, silver and
copper in paying quantities.
Martin Sorenson has n 6o-foot shaft
on one of his claims. His payshoot is
from IL to IS inches wide, but what it
lacks in size is made up in richness, for
the ore from it averages 500 per ton in
gold.
