YANKEE FORK.

In 1875 William Norton dlscoV-
cred the great Charles Dickens
mine on Yankee Fork. During
the first 13 days after the DIS
covery over $1,000 in gold was
taken out by Norton and John
Rohrer. by selecting specimens
during the day and crushing
them in hand mortar in the
evening. Their debts then
amounting to $1,000 were PAD
and the development of the mine
commenced. In 1S7San araStr"
with pans and settlers was com
pleted. and as the bars were
hrorobt across the mountains
oyar the old Loon creek tran
tbov attracted considerable at
tantion on their arrival in ldahC
Citv In 1879 there was Il any
rosb from all parts OF ldaho'
Montana and Nevada. AT one
+imo II was estimated that from
< 600 70 1000 prospectors were
within a radius of a few miles OF
f ROnnnZa. In
1850 the Custer mill, with V"en.s I,..,

LOOKING BACKWARDS
concluded from page 81 I, +

The stampede from Idaho CITY
was quickly followed by one from
Montana, and the Loon creek
diggings became known far and
wide and created a fever of ex-
citement. This great stampede
commenced in August. Only 200
men remained there that winter.
but in the years 1901 the pop-
ulation remained at about 500.
BY the fall of 1872 the mines
were worked out and all left ex-
cept few Cinnamon, who re-
mained until 1879, when they
were surprised in the middle of
the winter by Sheep Eater In
dians and all but two murdered.
The two escaped started on snow
shoes for Bonanza, on the Yam
kee Fork, but only one arrived
there, the other having perished
somewhere in the Salmon river
mountains.
In 1870 Charley Jordan, now in
business in Challis, laid out a
trail to Idaho City, and construc-
ted a toll bridge across the Pay
cite river five miles north of
Banner. The collections at the
bridge were very large during
the three years Of prosperity at
Orc GraHde.
Two express companies car
ried mail and packages to Orc
Grande and bullion out on horses
! in summer, and on backs of snow
shoers during the winter months.
One was owned by Chas. Tassel
and the other by ]. NJ. Shepard,
Henry Knapp and Dave Adams.
Newspapers and other freight
were charged for by the pound,
while letters, without weighing,
we're taken at the small price OF
80 cents each.
In January. 1870, William w.
Wentworth and Beaver Creek
Smith, who carried Sheppard &
Co.'S. express matter, were kill
ed by a snow slide in Deadman
canyon, 20 miles from Idaho
City. from which place they had
gone two days before. When
found in the Spring the bodies
were half mile from each 9th
er. The slide was of such pro
portions that part Of it did not
succumb to the hot summer sun
lint remained until the next win
ter.
The trials and hardships en-
Idured and the dangers encoun
tered by the venturesome plon
GERS who followed up the earl!
mining excitements were many
and it was but seldom that th'
brave men achieved fortunes t.
recompense them for their man,
hard tolls.

St. Louis seems to be having
a headache quite commensurate
with the fun" she has been hav-
ing for the last nine months.

be worth 1900, 600. We earnest
ly advise him not to indorse any
of the madam's notes.
Life insurance companies claim
that total abstainers" live long
er than moderate drinkers.
That isn't strange; a slow life
ought to last longer than a fast
one.
Mr.. Roosevelt seems to be in
doubt as to whether he should
follow the Simple or the
Strenuous" life.
The japanese continue to make
extensive deals" in suburban
property around Port Arthur.
A Baltimore merchant adver-
tises bargains in Christmas

Prince Fushimi is said to have
acquired strong liking for the

of the morning after"
Prophet Dowie says all great
men wear whiskers; as well as
we remember all the weary VIII
lies" do too.
Wonder if Admiral Rodjest-
vinsH fired on the Equator as he

morrow escape.
The famous Worlds Fair Pike
has gone out of existence with
out having furnished single
new song.
Pittsburg banks are still try,
: ing to dispose of their overbur
den of cash. They should lose

A CHAPTER ON MAN.

Man born of woman is a forked
animal with wheels in his head.
He cometh into the world kick
ing and kicketh all the days of
his life.
When a yearling he is boss of
the ranch. But at FIVE the old
man" breaketh his scepter over
the young kings head, and where
is he.
He playeth hockey" from
school and learneth to swim in a
mud puddle.
AS a gosling in the good old
summer time, he weareth sore
toe, and when his dad doeth his
duty, he frequently standeth up
to eat.
He feedeth his face with green
apples and sigheth nightly in
the still watches of the night.
When hair beginneth to grow
on his whiskers. the rustic of a
shirt is sweeter to his ears than
the music of the spheres.
Smitten with feminine charms
he straightway taketh the kink
out of his backbone and swelleth
up like a poisoned pup.
At sixteen he knoweth more
than all the universities, and as
for the old folks, they are has
beens."
By day he hustleth for candy
and coin and at night he build
eth castles in the air.
But 10 . his darling giveth him
the init" and breaketh his heart
in ten thousand bits.
When two days of mourning
endeth, he findeth another by fal
more fair, who mendeth his 'giz-
zard" and his sorrow fieeth Is
the shadows.
In due time she duplicdteth his
heart fracture and he liveth q
day in hell, but is rescued before
the sun goeth down by another
damsel, who damns him again
He groweth hard hearted and
dameth few damsels himself
then meeteth his Waterloo.
She smiteth him under tn,
fifth rib and he returneth tn,
blow. For many moons the!
COO and WOO like sick doves
Then cometh the preacher an
all is over. Selah !
Next cometh Pete and Repes
Kate and Duplicate ct al, an
they start out to do and be don
as their father before them.
Now the old man hustleth fO
grub with an exceeding gres
hustle.
He farmeth and is robbed b
the trusts.
He hireth himself toa corpor;
, tion and goeth on a strike and
, struck on the head with polio
mans club and is knocked SCI
: sible"-nit
> He goeth on the change" au
, is changed from bull to bear wit
