999 0 '' IX 20ISE BASIX. A correspondent writing to the Boise Statesman from the golden gulches near Idaho City, under HntA of Not. 26. savs: When I ar rived here I fourtd about a foot of enow about the city, while reports ; were current that the road to' wan ner was blocked so as to be almost, if not utterly impassable. Every day since I arrived has been mark ed by a snow-storm of from six to 24 hours in duration, and from present appearances the. end is not yet. Notwithstanding the unfavor able weather, accidents, discus sions, daiicea and funerals all.' go on uninterruptedly.' Yesterday was a day . of funerals, obsequies being held over two Mongolians who have long made this burg their stopping-place. One was a miner who met his death while digging on a bank that was unsup ported. The other acted his part as a linguist and interpreter, and as husband to a woman whosfe grief is light to-day, but whose lamentations yesterday would have drawn teara from the eye of a needle. .The first was laid to rest on the hillside, in the morning by the bright light, not a funeral note marking his passage to the silent city, although he was not entirely forgotten, as his grave was deco rated with rice and punks, and some very bad whisky. The sec ond headed a magnificent cortege composed of sleighs with mourn ing occupants and. a hundred celes tials on toot; At i the. house . the ceremony was elaborate, the best 8 man being displayed in a wooden overcoat with velvet trimmings, his widow arrayed in spotless wiijte and uncontrollable I agony Besides," there were a preacher and a musician of rare note, who occupied time alternately. Then there were attendants, brother masons with gay ribbons on their arms, to light punks and fire off fire-crackers,' and make slow, def erential bows as they passed the Bilent sleeper. Ihere was also i supper : of, ; bavbaued ; pig, ; roas ciucn, rice, ceiery, tea, ana an abundance of brandy, all arrang ed in a tempting manner; -To the melody of a Chinese horn the vast concourse moved along its way, and finally the beloved friends 'gathered at the tomb an 111 i i witn stencnes or. burning rags. discordant, music . the widow, drove myself away, and pauy. t St I860 X, The Oldest Business House in Jrleppnex !

' ' "Good morning, Farmer Fur row," said the deacon as he leaned over the fence to have a friendly chat. "Moruin', deacon," nodded ilia farmer. ,-How i that eicU pip this morning?" "Oh, that's trettin' along right smart, I reckon," cheerfully answered the granger. "Aud how is the rest of your folks?" continued the deacon. The farmer said nothing, but reached dtfwn, picked up an overripe melon and tired it at the deacon's h ;?ad.
