house about six miles north of town
yesterday afternoon. R. c. Day

attendance and a short, explanatory
talk by representative of the Pacific
Telephone and Telegraph company
it was decided by vote of the farm
ers present that the rural lines remain
connected with the Pacific Office.
Quite large crowd attended the
meeting.

Patrons OF Telephone Lines Extending Over Prairie Meet
to Consider Important Move.
Large Crowd OF Ranchers Attended Meeting at Sunny
side School House Yesterday Afternoon

For some weeks past the patrons of
the telephone lines running out over
the farming country, adjacent to
Grangeville have been considering the
proposition of joining all the farmer
lines together and connecting with
one of the local telephone Offices.
AT present, with two companies oper-
ating over the prairie, patron of one
line is unable to talk with the owner
of phone on the other line and this
fact brought about the suggestion
that the farmers call meeting for the
purpose of deciding the matter. The
Nez Perce Cooperative Company, it
is said, offered to refrain from collect
ing the usual switching charges for
the period of one year if the farmer
lines would connect with their central
Office here. Accordingly, a meeting

HAS AN OLD BIBLE.
Visitor in City Possesses Bible More
Than Three Hundred Years Old.

c. D. Murphy, of Spokane, who
has been visiting at the c. B. Knorr
home few miles west OF the city for
the past several weeks, has a Bible
that is over three hundred years old.
The ancient volume owned by Mr..
Murphy was printed in 1899. The
title page is elaborate and as a work
of art appears remarkable for work
done in the first century of the art of
printing. The page bears this inscrip-
ton:
Imprinted at London by the
Deputies of Christopher Barker,
Printer to the Queens Most Excel
lent Majestic. -
An interesting page of the old book
is devoted to the "diligent reader by
the printer, explaining many of the
cross references in the sacred volume,
and closing with the blessing of the

Atlas Mill Cave. In.

John Stantial writes from the HUMP
that there has been an immense snow
fall there the past two or three weeks.
Lhe mill at the Atlas mine caved in
recently, the accumulation of snow
being greater than the structure could
bear. The ore body at the Del Rio
mine has decreased few inches in
size but has become cleaner and of
greater value with development. All
the mining properties are looking
good and a prosperous summer is
looked for at the Hump.

printer to those who study his copy of
the Scriptures.
The old Bible contains a map or
chart of the holy land and several
curious wood cuts illustrating scriptur-
al subjects. One represents Moses
receiving the commandments and
another purports to show Solomon S
temple.
A second section of Mr.. Murphy S
treasured volume is a book of common
prayer, according to the rites and
ceremonies of the Church of England.
This part of the book was published,
as appears from the title page, in
1886, which reads: printed by
Robert Barker, printer to the king S
most excellent majestic, and the
assigns of John Bill A book of
Psalms is part of the work, with
musical notes of curious character.
The written records of births,
deaths and baptisms of the Marthow
family from 1860 to 1899 are con-
tained in the old Bible. An ancestor
of Mr.. Murphy married into the
Marthow family and through this
ancestor the book descended to its
owner. The Marthows are reported
as having lived on Featherstone street,
IN London, for more than a century.

for p. J. Jennings, of Portland, Ore
gon, last Saturday bought from Fred
Liskey the Mountain Con group of
mining claims, paying for the proper
ty a sum which Mr.. Nassau states is
up into the thousands. Mr.. Massam
says it is MIR. Jennings intention to
carry on development work on a
large scale, employing from ten to
fifteen men, and that work will be
started about April 1st The Noun
tain Con property comprises four
claims, is on Moose creek, about
eight miles south of Elk City, and

were made, and the values run from
81. 80 up to S84.
Butterfly is Bonded.
Word reached Mining News the
first of the week from Robert Puelz,
in Spokane, that he has bonded his
Butterfly mining property, in Oro-
grande district, for SO, 600, to Spo-
kane parties, and that development
work will be started within few days,
with Mr. Puelz as manager. Mr..
Puelz retains a one-fourth interest in
the property. He is now outside
buying machinery and supplies and is
expected to return the latter part of
this week. The Butterfly is the
property on which the sensational
strike in ore was made a few weeks
ago. The property is but a short
distance from the Orogrande-C Concord
wagon road. 1t was at one time
under bond to the Eagle Mountain
Mining company, who run a long
tunnel, and cut the rich ore where
Mr.. Puelz made his recent discovery.
The lead has been exposed far enough
to prove that it is more than a kid
ney." A number of mining men
claim the shoot of ore in the Butterfly
is the richest yet discovered in a dis
trict of central Idaho.
Cuts Ledge In Gold Bug.
VIM. Boyce reports he has cut the
ledge in his Gold Bug property, in
Box Sing gulch, and finds it is II feet
wide at so feet depth. The ore is
similar to that in the Buster, and
shows free gold in places. Mr.
Boyce has Is foot shaft and tunnel

Every day that we live the attention
OF the public Is focused on some new
man some great personality who has
risen above tho flood tide OF ordinary
things and Is held up TO the view of
all, Let us watch in the direction OF
the public gaze and every day take
note of the man In the llmelight, and
try to find out how he got there. 1t

We are all very tired l know OF
hearing the stories about poor boys
who have become great, but examples
of such are so numerous that we cannot
look around US without seeing many OF
them. Last night / heard an incident
in the life OF Thomas A. Edison, the
great Inventor. which I believe has
never found It's way into the public
press.
II was back IN the sixties when
Edison worked as trainboy on tho
Grand Trunk railroad with n run from
Detroit TO Port Huron. So ambitions
was he that when his days work was
over he would go down to the Metro
polltan theater In Detroit-long since
out of businessman get a job as a
super. 1t was no easy task after his
