The Owyhee nugget. ([Silver City], Idaho) 1905-1984, 1909-01-08

The second corps which is said to be
engaged in setting grade stakes was at
Bruneau about 10 days ago, but is now
encamped near Grand View. The fact
that the second crew of surveyors is fol-
lowing up SO close to the first is construed
as possible indication that the Short
line not only intends to build the road
but also to commence actual construction
at a very early date.
Significant Developments.
A former preliminary survey down the
south side of the Snake river did not fol-
low the channel OF the stream, but in
many cases was located three or four
miles south of the river. The new sur
vey crossed the Bruneau country and
Grand View country some little distance
from the river but at the mouth Of Castle
creek the river bed was reached and has
been followed down as far as the present
camp near Gutfey, distance of 20 miles.
This is significant as it would indicate
the building Of a very important line
which demands water grade. There is
considerable heavy rock work on the
river side route that would be entirely
obviated at the expense of heavier
grade by going across country. The
cross country route would also make a
saving in mileage as the course Of the
Snake river through that section is sin

Parties coming from Salt Lake state

financing of the extension. Atthe head
quarters there, it is understood, one OF
them stated, that the work is to commence
in the near future on the Twin Falls to

The Gollmar Circus Was Good.

AS advertised, the Gollmar Bros, cir
Gus appeared in Mineral Point last Fri
day. and as the great annual fair of
this place was in full blast at the time,
we feel safe in saying that the two
splendid drawing cards brought TO Min
eral Point that day as large crowd as
ever assembled here at one time. The
result was that both fair and circus did
well financially, and it is not likely
any one of the thousands present will
soon forget the day and its pleasures.
The circus gave two excellent per
formances. such as would be a credit
to more pretentious aggregations.
Many new and pleasing features were
introduced to the show-going people Of
this vicinity. The feats Of the dozen
mammoth elephants were simply mar
yeIous. That those dull appearing ami.
mails possess the intelligence they dis
played was a surprise TO one and all.
Besides having good circus, tbs
Gollmar Bros. are gentlemen Of upright
conduct and square dealing.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO
Their UncesSing Work Keeps Us
Strong and heaLIhp.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood
They work night and day When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of impure matter daily, when I'M
healthy some part of this impure mat
ter is left in the blood. This brings
on many diseases and symptoms
pain in the back, headache, nervous
ness, hot, dry skin, rheumatism, gout,
gravel, disorders of the eyesight and
hearing, dizziness, irregular heart,
debility, drowsiness, dropsy, deposits
in the urine etc. But if you keep the
filters right you have no trouble with
your kidneys.
Chas. Goldsworthy, living on Hoard
street, Mineral Point Wis, says: II

On Thursday last as Mr.. Patrick
Shields of Waldwick was riding along
in his wagon, he was suddenly thrown
out by an unexpected jolt and his spine
broken. He lived some twenty-four
hours in intense pain, when his suffer
ings were terminated by death.
We had a magnificent shower on
Sunday night. There are some hopes
for good corn crops and chance for
potatoes. The latter crop is very small
about here, but we learn that it is
good in the northern part of the county.
We do not know that under the pres
ent administration we have any rights
that fostmasters are bound to respect,
nor have we any idea that complaints
from us will be needed by those having
control of the mails; but it is neverthe-
less annoying, not only to US but to
our subscribers, to have as many causes
for complaint as there are from differ
ent localities. Our papers are mailed
regularly and with the utmost care to
all our subscribers and yet large
portion of them fail to get their papers
with any degree of regularity. We
trust the day is not far distant when
the post offices throughout the land will
be in the hands of those who will attend
to them with more credit to themselves
and convenience to the public.

FROM THE TRIBUNE FILES
Sixty Years Ago.

1t becomes our painful duty to again
record the fact that the scourge of
cholera is still lowering over us end
selecting its victims without regard TO
age, sex or condition in life. Within
the past two weeks, six have been
added TO the list of deaths attributed to
cholera in this town.
Through the politeness of Or. David
Ross, we are permitted to publish a
letter this week received by him on
Tuesday last from his brother, John J.
Ross, now in California.
Among the recent deaths from cholera
in this place, we are panied to announce
that of Mrs. Lurancey, consort of Mr..
Gardner Lamp and sister of Mrs. 0. j.
Minor of this town. Mrs. Lamp is cut
down in the bloom of youth and leaves
a husband (now in California; and an
infant daughter behind The amiable
and affectionate disposition of Mrs,
Lamp has endeared her to large circle
of friends who deeply sympathize with
the bereaved relatives. She died on
Monday evening last, aged 20 years.
1t is with deep regret that we record
the death of our fellow townsman,
Orren j. Minor. He eXpired on Wednes-
day morning (22d inst) after suffering
for about twelve hours from cholera.
The death of Mr.. Minor has cast a
gloom through our whole town. A
eulogy from us is unnecessary. He
viii long be remembered by all who
knew him. He has left a wife (who is
doubly afflicted in the loss of husband
and a sister, and three small children
to mourn his departure. Mr.. Minors
age was 80 years.
