Harry Campbell has been quite
sick at Jerome Junction for several
days threatened with pneumonia, and
he teIephoned this morning that he
wanted to see his mother, Mrs. Dan
Campbell, who went up on the II
train to be at his bedside. He is re-
ported to be in pretty serious con-
dition.
The journal Miner is in receipt of
communication addressed to the
grand jury relative to the shooting
scrape in this city day or two ago,
which contains some very good, whole
some advice, but the writer fails to
sign his or her name to the commune
cation and for this reason it will be
withheld until the writer's identity
is known.
The BIB. Co. is becoming noted
for its fancy windows of late, many
of the decorations being very novel
and handsome. This institution is
never behind the times in any line
and the variety of window displays
only give faint idea of the enormous
stock of goods that is carried. This
firm receives and ships out an average
of car load of goods every day in the
year and every month their business
increases.
Henry Gohrman, who has been sick
at the hospital for several weeks, has
been admitted Ito the soldiers home
at Santa Monica, California, and left
for that place this morning. He has
some very good looking mining prop
erty in the Copper Basin country but
on account of having been so poorly
in health has not been able to do very
much with them the past year. He
hopes to soon recover sufficiently to
return to this county aud continue
work on his claims.
The Journal Miner is in receipt of
one of the finest prospectuses that has
ever come to its table, being a pros
pectus for the Great Peck mine which
Henry B. Clifford & Co. are now pro-
noting. As work of the printers art
it is at the head of the list, and as
history of the mine it is very COM
plete and contains a vast samount of
information concerning one of the
most famous properties in this terri
tory. The book also contains some
very strong endorsements of the Great
Peck mine by many of our best bust
ness men, some of whom have been
in this section for many years and are
personally acquainted with the history
of its production of millions of dol
lars in the past.

ulatioGs had been extended the part

The government rested late yseter-
day afternoon IL the case of the Unit
ed States against former Surveyor
General Hugh H. Price and the de
Tense moved to dismiss on the grouno
that there was variance between the
proof and the allegations of the in
dictment. The motion is still under
which will be resumed this
morning. There was nothing sensa-
tional in the testimony brought out
yesterday. No effort was made on the
part of the government to show that
the money which the defendants. Mr..
Price and Mr.. Murphy, had received
from Mrs. Miller for advancing he
work in the office of the surveyor gen
eral beyond that of work previously |
entered, had been retained in whole
or in part by them. Neither was the |
question as to whether the work had |
been done out of office hours, raised. /
The prosecution confined itself to /
showing that the defendants had ex-
acted money from Mrs. Miller beyond |
the legal degree Mrs. Miller testi-
fed to the fact Of having paid or hav- |
ing sent to Mr.. Murphy a draft or
certificate of desposit for $3.50, accord |
ing to an arrangement by which her
work would not have to await its turn
in regular office hours. |
