/ Will Put in More New Machinery
in Short Time.
A. Charlebois and T. H, Taylor
of the Idaho Gold Mining Company
writes from Chicago, that they
have purchased some new machin-
cry for their mines on Snake river.
They have everything moving
nicely and have been working
several men, but shut down and
layed off al but two msn who will
look after their property until the
machinery arrives and is installed.
The suspension bridge, piping and
all have been put in and all works
we'll, but with the new appliances
which will be used it Will not only
aid them to work the mines to
better advantage Tut will he much
cheaper. The dirt they are now
handling is rich and We are satisfied
is good pay dirt, as we have seen
some of the samples and they no
doubt have a paying proposition.
1t is bieng proven that the old
placer mines OH the Snake river
will pay with the improved pro-
cess for handling and saving it,
which the Idaho Gold Mining COM
pany are putting in and using and !
We may look for some good divi-
lend paying mines and at least
,igh average value in number of
instances to pay profit if handled
lightly. The mines will be in op-
'eration again about the first of
august with an increased force of

THE RABBIT DRIVE
About Fifteen Hundred Rabbits Are
Killed

I
Sunday thirty-fve Shoshone
people boarded the morning train
for Gooding TO participate in
rabbit drive which took place few
miles from town. Everyone
brought luncheon along with them,
which was, of course, the most i'm
porcant part, and all went cut for
a royal good time, which they had.
The gathering took place at the
ranch of F. r. Gooding, on which
Walt Gooding lives. Luncheon
was served 2 o'clock out under
the trees and about 3::3J the party
went out about three miles fro n,
town where the drive took place, OH
hay racks, horse back and on foot.
Pens into which the rabbits were
driven were made previous to the
arrival OF the party and all was in
readiness for the drive. The drive
started in about two miles from the
pens, nearly sixty people taking
par. in it. No guns were allowed
to be used. nothing but clubs and
all were we'll armed with that kind
of weapon F. r. Gooding was
commanding officer and acquitted
himself with great credit, as hs =
kept everything moving along
nicely and his men in line. anG

INTERESTING FAC rs
SaIoons Have Been Running About
Three Months Without License.

I
Three Months Without License.
There was quite a little furore
started lii town the first of the
week, when it was discovered that
all the saloons in Shoshone were
running without license. Inves-
tigation developed the fact that the
saloon men had paid Sheriff Jones
fer their license the first OF April
but that the sheriff had moi delivered
them their license yet. Inquiries
at the treasures Office disclose the
fact that no money for license had
been turned in to him. The audi
tors Office was visited and the fact
disclosed that the auditor had
made out the licenses for saloons,
billiard tables ETC., but as no money
had been turned in the licenses
still remained in the auditors office.
1t was reported that the saloon
men were 10 be arrested for selling
liquor without a license, and on
Tuesday the sheriff FASTENED TO the
Treasurers nffice and turned the
money in and the saloon men are
now complying with the law.
1t has caused some wonderment
why the sheriff should hold this
money and not deliver the saloon
men their license as is required by
law. There were three licenses is
sued by the board at its April
for Shoshone; and the
money paid to the sheriff.
There is evidently something |
rotten in Denmark, or the sheriff |
would have turned the license
money due the county from Joe
Tom Fay and E. B. McFall
nto the county treasurer and not

Keep it in his safe. The law pro-
rides that this money shall be
urned into the county treasury,
hat is what a county treasurer is
or. The sheriff's office is not the
lace that county funds are to be

un without license, and if such
fere done 1t is the duty of the
heriff or bis deputy to arrest them {

E. M. Fritz and j. S.
Donaldson Murdered.
LEFT WHERE FELL
They Were Undoubtedly Shot From
Ambush Supposedly By
Indians.

1t is a double murder that has
stained the opening pages of the
record of the Fort Hall mining dis
trict-a crime so cruelty atrocious,
so totally lacking in motive as to be
almost appalling.
The horror of the tragedy on the
north fork of PocatelIo creek was
doubled last evening. In the morn
ing Sheriff Rice and Coroner Bean
had brought in the body of f. NJ.
Fritz. an esteemed citizen of Poca-
tello, bullet hole through his head
and another through his body Last
evening they brought in the body
of John 5. Donaldson an old gentle
man who arrived in PocateIlo only
few DAYS ago from Wood River,
Neb. He, too, had been shot to death
with rife bullet which passed
through his breast.
The body of Donaldson was found
about one hundred yards from
where the body of Fritz lay. He
lay prone upon his face on the
mountain side, where he had pitched
when the fatal ball plowed its way
through his breast, entering on the
right side In front of the shoulder
and coming out under the left
shoulder blade.
The spot where the double crime
was committed is on the north
branch of PJcatelIo creek, seven or
eight miles from the city and only a
few hundred yards from what is
known as the Lost Horse claim
This claim was located dy E. G,

BOISE, June, 26,-The liveliest in

the capl'al city in the "harmony"

prominence at the Tilden club, New

them laugh at the idea of the great
democracy again being dominated
by Cleveland and Hill, but their
laugh is not characterized by any
degree of resonance. 1t is rather

STRIKING DRAMATIC INCIDENT
Touching Meeting of Hon. N. 3. Brough-
ton and MIR. uoslah Ryland.

A dramatic incident which occurred
Sunday afternoon last in the hall Of the
Young Mems Christian Association gave
a fitting climax to meeting OF intense
power and stirred to the hearts core the
great audience of men gathered there to
hear an address by the Hon. n. B.
Broughton, of Raleigh, State Senator OF
North Carolina, and uncle of the Rev
Len G. Broughton, D. D., the well known
minister of Atlanta, Ga.
The occasion was the mems meeting.
held weekly under the auspices Of the
Association. The address by Mr.. Brough-
ton was on the subject, Playing the
Fool" and while simple and unaffected
to a degree, made deep impression on
the audience. In the course of his re-
| marks, Mr.. Broughton had occasion to
refer to his former residence in this city.
where he once worked as a printer. That
was about thirty. years ago. and In those
days n. B. Broughton was q wild and
somewhat disspated young man. He
himself told the story of his rapid life
and the company he kept, until one day
things took a sudden and rather unex-
pected turn The speaker referred feel
| ingly. to the occasion when, in the midst
Of his wild life, a man came to him and
asked him to let him be his friend.
| Through the gentle counsel of this new
lIleNU Il MI. bTOuSnCOn was leo TO WISH
church and Sunday-school, and from that
! time onward he altered his ways.
The story as told by Mr.. Broughton was
touching in the extreme. He said that
when he left Richmond he left behind
him the man who had done him so much
good, though he carried then and carries
now in his heart the remembrance of him
He heard no more of him, and now upon
his return to Richmond could not say
whether he was dead or alive. HE may
be living here now, or he may not" said
Mr.. Broughton. II do not know" Then
he revealed to his spellbound audience the
name of the man who had helped him
in his troubles, and the name was Josiah
Ryland.
Seated twenty feet from the speaker
was Mr.. Ryland himself. visibly affected
by this scene. The audience. was none
the less touched; many surreptitiously
brushed away a tear which would come
in spite of all efforts. AS Mr.. Broughton
pronounced the name Of his benefactor.
one of the well known pastors of this
city, who was present in the audience,
arose to his feet and exclaimed: 1--WE have
Brother Ryland yet thank God!''
Thus did Mr.. Broughton find himself
again in the presence Of the man who
years ago had done him so kind a SER
vice.
