Suits have been brought in the pro-
bate court to bring on the foreclosure
of four liens filed by miners for labor
performed by them for the Cleveland
Mining Company, of Ohio. This is an
other instance of miners working for
strangers who intend to pay them after
they strike it rich, not otherwise. But
in this instance the title to the prop
erLy is good, and the men will get their
pay--or the property with about 300
sacks of good ore piled up.
Branch H. Smith left for Lewiston
Saturday, delegate to the meeting Of
the grand lodge of Odd Fellows, held
this week in that city. The other del
egate, r. I'll. Leonard, Sr., was already
there, having gone several days preyi-
ously to visit his daughter. Mesdames
Hamilton and Dickens accompanied
Mr.. Smith, going as representatives
from the local lodge of Daughters of
Rebekah to the convention of that
order held in the same city.
William Hardiman, the prosperous
Oreana rancher, was III town over
Tuesday night gossiping with old
friends. Mr.. Hardiman, good many
years ago, merchandised on the ground
where Nugget building now stands,
and is still often spoken of by old tim
ers as the most progressive merchant
Owyhee ever had. Mr.. Hardiman now
seems to be pinning his faith on the
future of Nampa, as he has made quite
extensive investments in real estate in
that city during the past two years.
William Lewis, who was attending
bar in town, was taken i'll last week
and when DR.. Hamilton was called to
visit him he pronounced it case of
smallpox. He had the patient at once
placed in the little brick building on
the west side of town and quarantined.
The building is a very comfortable one
and isolated, but near enough his
mothers home to make it convenient
for the family to attend his wants. The
case, the doctor informs us, is very
mild one and he is doing nicely. How
he became exposed to the disease is
not known.
