BOULDER.

G. F. webber was in from Boulder
creek the first Of this week and brought
in some samples Of the ore that they are
taking out on one of their claims The
ore shows much free gold Of excellent
grade, the highest grade gold found in
this part Of the state. The veins are un-
usuly large and carry good values, mostly
in gold, and are easily worked Consid-
cradle work is being done on the different
properties in this camp, which will soon
become one Of the largest and most pros
porous mining camps in the owyhee
mountains.

Slightly Disfigured but
Still in the Ring

The true western spirit Of grit, perse-
verance and determination was never
more clearly shown then by the citizens
of Nampa, in not only carrying out the
excellent program advertised for the cell
ebration, but adding many new features
to it after experiencing most disastrous
fire. Fully one half of the business part
Of the city was destroyed by fire on July
9th, but on the morning of July 4th they
were at work clearing away the aftermath
Of the fire and making more extensive
preparations then ever for their celebra-
ton exercises which we're to take place on
the 9TH This display Of invincible spirit
Of progress, will make every body set up
and take notice. Nampa, is on the map
to stay. The natural advantages of the
location, a prominent railroad juction,
and many other featurers combined with
the progressive spirit of her citizens are
sure to retain for Nampa the title she
rightfully holds Of Hub Of Snake River
Valley" One great advantage Nampa
has over some Of the competing towns is
that the town was laid out on good soil
and not on fiat of alkali land whose only
growth was salt-grass and grease wood.
Nampa has the goods, and viii make
good. We all must take off our hats tc

A PIPE DREAM

The editor of the Caldwell Tribune
must have been indulging in some sort Of
food or beverage that caused him to have
distorted hallucinations and that caused
his pessimistic mind to produce the arti-
Gle in their last issue concerning the
Trade Dollar mine. We are informed
by the management Of that property that
no such statement was authorized.
We would advise the writer OF the said
article to refrain from imbibing SO much
alkali water or indulging in rarebit feasts.
Ii he keeps on he will be taking the ma
chinery from our quartz mills to use in
harvesting the great crops of grain, salt
grass and Russian thistles that grow 50
luxuriantly about their city
Caldwell has grown to be quite a nice
country town from a forwarding station
on the Short Line, that owed its early ex-
istence to the trade it received from the
rich mineral region in the owyhee mount
aims. Thousands Of tons of freight and
millions Of feet of lumber was shipped
from that point to the towns of Silver
City, Dewey, DeLamar, South Mountain
and the various mines in this region.
Had it not been for the mines in this sec
ton Of the state the town of Caldwell
would never have sprung into existance.
Publishing an article composed Of pure
hot air and distorted imagination derog-
atory to some other locality will not assist
in the upbuilding of your own town.

The Way We Celebrate

Once more the celebration of the ma
tional birthday has come and gone.
The American people have had their
spasm of patriotism and the extent Of the
disasters are reported as being the great
est in the history of the country. Millions
of dollars in valuable property have been
destroyed, hundreds Of people have been
killed, and thousands have been perma-
nently injured or manned for life. And for
what? To allow the people to celebrate
in ridiculous and foolish manner.
tits time that National, State and Munic-
ipal control should be enforced to prevent
the use of fireworks Of all kinds as they
are the primary cause of most of the disas-
ters that occur on this occasion.
Can we not educate the rising genera
ton to a more rational manner of cele-
brating great events? Several cities have
adopted laws preventing the use of fire.
crackers, of other explosives within their
corporate limits; others prohibit their
use in certain localities. If one viii look
over the list of disasters occurring on this
years celebration of the Nations birth,
you will find that the cities where such
regulations have been adopted are con-
spicuous by their absence.

FLINT DISTRICT

A force of fifteen miners has been put
to work on the Bonnell property, putting
the mine in shape for active development
work and for taking out ore. Several
parties from Silver City who have recently
visited this district say that they are
much surprised to see SO much rich ore
in sight. Tons and tons Of high grade
silver ore is exposed to view and large
amount is being taken out and sacked
for shipment

GOLDEN CROWN

Thomas Harland has been employed
to take charge Of the minin g part Of this
property, and Marcus White, the metal
lurgical expert of this camp, has been
engaged to superintend the milling and
selection Of ore for shipment. Both Of
these gentlemen are miners of experience
and the company has been very fortu-
nate in securing their services. They are
very conservative men and they both
speak very highly of this property.

The Celebra ton In
Owyhee County

The celebration of the Nations birth
was observed in the mining camps in the
Owyhee Mountains without any serious
accidents and with the usual glamor and
noise attending such occasions.
AT Silver City the patriotic sermon de-
livered by Rev. Yaggy on Sunday morn
ing was one of the best addresses of its
kind that we have ever had the pleasure
of hearing.
On Monday morning the celebration
exercises were opened as usual by the fir
ing OF anvils, booms and other internal
devises, to announce to the world that
the patriotic spirit of the people Of this
locality had burst forth in its annual
spasm. The temperature was just right
for the through enjoyment Of the occasion,
neither too hot nor too cold. Extensive
preparation had been made for the enter
tainment of the social crowd that gather
ed to enjoy the festivities of the occasion.
Flags and other decorations made the old
town present very attractive appear
ance.
The morning exercises were unusually
good and the Grafton by William Healy
was well delivered and masterpiece
of good sound patriotic advice showing
the condition of the country and course
to be pursued by the citizens of this re-
public if our government is to be perpetu-
ated. In his address Mr.. Healy showed
the tendancy of officials, to supplant
graft for patriotism, and that all true
American citizens should uphold the law
for the suppression of all acts contrary to
the betterment OF the conditions of our
country.
The morning exercises were under the
direction of Mrs. Myrtle Hasting Shea,
and showed careful training of those
who participated, and were rendered in
an excellent manner. The vocal solo by
Miss Aleda Brunzell is worthy OF special
mentions Miss Brunzell has an excel
lent voice and if nothing prevents, is des-
tined to become singer of note in the
near future.
The program for the afternoon consist
ed of foot racing and drilling contest.
The entries in this contest were Pose Mar
row, ]. B. Law of Silver City, and Fred
Inch of DeLamar. Marrow drew first
place and made 2224 inches; Law was
second and drilled hole to the depth Of
257s inches Fred Inch was third and
made 1716 inches.
A spirited game Of Base Ball followed
after which all prepared to enjoy the free
dance and supper prepared by the com
mittee There was large crowd partic-
ipated in this part of the entertainment
and dancing was kept up until daylight
An excellent supper was served to al
who wished to partake.
The second days entertainment consist
ed of Bucking horse contest, horse racing
Tug-of-W War and burlesque ladies race
which caused much merriment.
The celebration closed with another
dance Tuesday evening.
At DeLamar an excellent program o
sports, races and other events was enjoy
ed by the large crowd that had gathered
to celebrate the glorious fourth. Thos
who attended report having had yer.
enjoyble time and are loud in their prais
es of the entertainment and the hospital
ty of the people of DeLamar

investigation Reveals That Abdul
Hamid Employed Utmost Precau-
tons to Foil Attempts to
Take His Life

PARIS. May 29.-The correspondent
of the Temps at Constantinople de-
scribes the life of the fallen sultan,
Abdul Hamid, in his present palace.
This journalist has evidently tried to
approach the villa, which is jealousy
through whom the journalist sought
access to the ex-sultan answered: Abb
dull Hamid must be forgotten. 1t is
of no Importance now to know what
he does or what he thinks"
Abdul Hamid, it is said, begins to
get accustomed to his new life. The
first day he slept in his residence he
carefully inspected all the doors and
windows before going to bed and the
following day he was nervous and
somewhat irritated. He used to smoke
a great many cigarettes and did not,
relish the food which was prepared
for him. He did not even go out on
the balcony. but would walk about in
the rooms of the villa, peering from
time to time out of some window, as
If to acquaint himself with the sur
roundings.
He seems interested in the simple
things which surround him, sometimes
going for a walk in the garden and
asking the names of the flowers. of
the women of the harem who have ae-
companied the master, two girls, aged
IA and Is years. respectively, are now
said to be installed as his faVorites.
1t is said that Abdul Hamid used to
have all stories OF mysteries which
dealt with robbers. assas sins, adVen-
lures and detectives translated and
that he used to take from them any
ideas that would serve to make him
fierce or protect him against attempts
at robbery or assassination. Confirm

They came from pistols in the safe,
which were fired automatically when

The Eunuch Nadid, from whom in
formation is being exacted concerning
the sultan's secrets, is taken through
the apartments of the palace with his
hands fastened and soldiers all around
him, but any advance is made with
the utmost precautions, because it is
well known that there are all kinds
of traps and ambushes, which the eu-
much alone knows, and into which he
can let those accompanying him fall.
In that part of the palace where the
sultan resided there are rooms with
doors hidden in the walls, hidden
rooms, movable planks in the floors
and other kinds of diabolical inven-
lions.
