We have just received a copy of the Elmore Bulletin, whose columns contained a published account of the death of Henry Honey, our brother, stating that "No known cause is advanced by any me for the terrible act, other than self-de- j struction seems to have been heredi ! tary in the family—several mem hers having died by their own hands." We, brother and sister of the de ceased, wish to correct the above statement, that self destruction is hereditary in the family, as this is the first instance in the history of the family where death was caused by their own hands. Not only has there never been a death by suicide in our family, hut such has never taken place in any of the distant family connections that we have any knowledge of. We beg leave to ask you to make this correction in the Elmore Bul letin. We also send a copy of this statement to the I. O O. F. 1 nlge in Mountain Home. Yours truly, Allen Dorsey.

Rocky Bar, March 12, 1899. I Once again I will try to make you acquainted with the doings and ...... ^'rroumlmgs of tins v.cin.ty wh.ch. ut present is slumbering 'neath the 1 the cloak of at least five feet of solid snow but is vanishing very rapidly under the scorching rays of old Sol. who appears qui to frequent -1 ly now as the spring time advances. I Although the "Robin-son-bird" has not made its appearance yet we are all anxiously awaiting that true harbinger of spring, and when it does conic, we in this upper conn try can fully appreciate the change of the season. If I am any kind of a prophet, ed this corning summer is full of pro mise and prosperity and 1 predict a boom in manv circles in this country which will rival in wealth it be and speculation the great Cripple Creek camp in Colorado and the newly discovered and fabulously (ich Buffalo Hump country. Rocky Bar and Atlanta will arise as if from a slumber and the untold millions which I believe is hidden in the bowels of these lofty nioun tains will l»e extracted and that precious yellow lucre will issue from these camps to the mint, (and they will exclaim we have become ourselves again, as in ye olden days) and rank with the best gold producing camps of any country. hat we need at present is one or two thoroughly competent mining men with some capital and plenty of push to advance this country to its proper place. What this coun try has suffered through incompe tency and had management in years gone by has been very severe as we all know, but the science of mining is advancing every day and com panies are placing at the helm, men who have had experience and who more thoroughly understand their business, hence the prosperity of the country (practical men is what we want, 1 say with Bob Ingersoll, an ounce of practice is worth a ton of theory). Yesterday wo had the pleasure seeing again upon our streets, the Hon. Jas. A. Nicholson our gifted and accomplished Representative in the last legislature and a right good welcome was accorded him by the citizens of this burg on Iris ar rival home. A grand ball was given at the Hon. (i. I). Golden's Hall to celebrate the occasion at which very near all the good peo ple of this place participated. The music was superb, being furnished by the famous Nicholson, Abbott, Clure orchestra, and nobody that came within hearing distance of its strains could resist the temptation to indulge in a step or two, (not even those bald-headed old cusses, whose noble heads added lustre to the scene). The leasers on the Vishun, Idaho and Emmet and other properties are all doing remarkably well, Messrs. Hunter and MeQuade es pecially. They arc preparing at present to mill about thirty-five tons of rock which, judging from the appearance and prospects 1 have seen will go away up. Also Messrs. Sel i raft and McAfee have a fine showing and 1 predict a fine clean up from the crushing they will make in the spring. And again we cross over to Red Warrior, There Messrs. Irwin and Cordell, who I think will from the size of their ore dump make a very re sportable crushing. Below them we run into Messrs. Mundell Hartwell, who have charge and are working the famous Wide West property extracting some very rich ore. Mr. Grose who is at present in Boise lias a couple of men work ing some property on Red Warrior and if reports are true he intends to put quite a force of men to work on his return. Dancing is the order of the day. U r had one last night, another set. , for the loth, another the litli sure, and one on the 80th, the last in honor of Miss Nora rreehmd. ■ , , m c (laughter of Mrs. Seward the pnpu lar landlady of the Rocky Bar Ho tel.
