Winder's Connection With Prison.
The court papers show no connec-
| ton of Winder's further than this nor
do they take any account of his career.
From a history of Andersonvlle pris-
On, however, is found the statement
that in 1863 John H. Winder, the
arch tiend Of prisons" appointed his
son William S. Winder, adjutant, and
that he was sent out to find location
for the prison, known as Anderson
vile.
A city directory OF Keokuk for
1859 and 1860 gives w. s. Winder as
an attorney with offices on Second
street between Main and Johnson,
and boarding in the Billings House.

Strike of Ore in Boise-Rochester Mine is Rich
Beyond Anything Ever Uncovered at
Camp and of Vast Extent

THE rich new ore discovery was
made about one month ago at a
point 40 feet south of the stope pre-
viously worked Since then several
raises have been put up and con
nected through ON the vein and to
the surface, with a new adit tunnel
which nov discloses a continuous pay
str ak of bonanza gold ore from two
to 10 inches thick for a distance
along the drift of 280 feet To a face
depth of 1870 feet.
The pay streak will sample more
than $4,000 per ton In gold and num-
erous cross section average samples
from face two to three feet gives
results of from 5000 to $500 per ton
Hand specimens can readily be
picked out showing bands of solid
native gold fully half an inch thick.
Thousand dollar values have been
found 500 feet further east of the
present showing in a narrow spur
vein in an old parallel drift at the
same level.
This discovery is at the deepest
horizon ever penetrated on the At
lanta lode, 1000 feet de per than the
old bonanza slopes on the adjoining
Petit, Monarch and Buffalo mines.
There is still 1000 feet of virgin
ground to drive through before reach
ing the Petit workings, and this
gives decided evidences of a sub
stantial resource of these bonanza
values.
1T is likely that within month
the property will ship a carload of
the choice stuff now beinG sacked that
will match some of the picture values
in gold that made Cripple Creek,
Goldfield and other bonanza camps
famous.

HISTORY OF MOUNTAIN HOME

The following article, "A history
of Mountain Home" was furnished
to the Republican by Mrs. Bruneau,
teacher of the seventh grade, as the
best essay handed in by the children
of that grade when this subj ct was
assigned them for composition. 1t
was written by Edith Bruce.
The townsite of Mountain Home
was laid out in 1881 1t was called
Rattlesnake and was located just be
yond Commodore Jackson's. We call
1t RattIesnake creek now.
The first woman that came to
Mountain Home was Mrs. w. J.
Turner Mr. Paine was the editor
of the first paper. Mr.. julie Hagar
was the first postmaster. The NAL
could just come as far as ShoshOne
and then it had to be taken to Rocky
Bar and places in the upper country
by stage. Mr. Hagar did not like
this so he put a little tent up here in
Mountain Home and was here three
months with his tent for a postoffice
before the government knew it,
The first school was taught by
Miss Valara DollaIhide. 1t was not
regular school, by the side of the
one we have today it was poor one.
She taught in the early SOS. There
was little shack in 1885, later in
1887 the old court house or part of it
stood where our present school stands
and served as a school house.
In 1896 the bui ding was sold 10
the county for a court house and late
our present school was started
The first house was built by Mr..
w. J. Turner and served as a board
ing and rooming house, 1t stood
where Maine street now is.
In 1888 there was a wooden build
ing erected known as the Episcopal
church. 1t was burned and the
present one was built Two Of the
oldest homes. are Brady and Rohrer s,
Miss Florence Johnson, now Mrs.
Claude Clays was the first white
baby born in Mountain Home.
The names of some of the streets
were Canyon Ethel, Bennett and Ell
more streets.
Some of the avenues were Hawne,
Lockman and Jackson.
The railroad first reached here in
1883. The old Oregon Trail is about
eight or ten miles east of Mountain
Home.
Some of the earliest settlers of
Mountain Home are Mr.. and Mrs.
Paine, Mr.. Fitzwalter and Lockman's.

ELWYHEE FESTIVAL
OCCURRES NEXT WEEK.

Notwithstanding the short period
of time within which they had to pre-
pare their program, 1t is apparent
that the boosters of Glenns Ferry
are sparing no pains to make the
second annual Elwyhee Festival, to
be held there on Thursday, Friday
and Saturday of next week a thor
oughly liyewire affair. One of the
principal amusement features will be
the two-game baseball series between
the Glenns Ferry and Jerome base
ball teams on the last two days.
Jerome has one Of the best teams
In the southern Idaho league and
Glenns Ferry has team of like
ened in the effort to pull down the
big cash purse.
A number of running horse races
for liberal prizes will take place FRI
day and Saturday. There will be
foot races and other street contests
every day. A trapshooting meet
has been arranged for gunlovers. The
Russell Carnival company carrying
ferris wheel, a merly-go-ronnd and
several shows, Will afford pastime
between the gaps in the program.
The Gooding Military band will fur
nish the music.
Glenns Ferry is expecting a large
crowd from the Mountain Home
section, and 1t would seem from a
glance over the list of features that
said town deserves 1t.

of mining in this state has been made
at Atlanta. Ore running thousands

The rich strike, made within the
last month, is no pocket but has
already been followed for 2S0 feet and
the end is not yet in sight The
find has been carefully inspected by
Robert n Bell, state mine inspector,

This is the richest gold strike
which has ever been recorded in
Idaho history" said Nh Bell in his
official announcement made ON Tu s.

just returned from an official "trip to
Atlanta, and made the announcement
with the permission OF the owners
of the property

for which this state WAS noted in the
COS continued Mr.. Bell.
The discovery was made in a.
crosscut 60 feet above the lower
tunnel on the property of the Boise
Rochester Mining company, ,ituated
on the east end of the Atlanta lode,
which was made famous in the early
years of mining in Idaho by reason
of its production of shipping values
of $1,000 ore in quantity, with selected
ton lots, reaching values Of $4,000
per ton.
'The primary ore in the old lode at
depth while carrying good average
milling values, proved exceedingly re-
fractory and the activities of the
district relapSed to a mere ghost of
their former vigor.
