from a London paper will be of interest
to our readers: -"A rumor is current
that L J. Brace, the contractor for the

Washington Territory. Whether this be'
true or not it is a fact that Brace assign-
ed his contract to the county Commis-
sioner of a great deal of worthless timber
which the contractor had on the ground,
and which was being used in the bridge.
It is also alleged that Brace neglected to
pay the men who were working on the

to create a sustentation fund, but the

It Wray be for years. and it mai be tar ever,
before it would be fully paid up. Fur
this reason the mission work had to be
prosecuted chiefly through the mesas Of
voluntary contributions. Ip 1879 the
voluntary contributions amounted t"
511,809 ; last year it reached $16,56.2,
being a gain of nearly $4,000 in the

A TeltetBLE FALL, - On Monday a
number of relatives and friends of Mr.
James Million, who lives near the In-
ternational Salt Well, came in from Col-
borne to have a "plowing bee" on his
land. Returning just after tea, the four
teams were driving in procession up the
hill on the said leading from Saltford to
Benmiller, occasionally hailing one
another in the darkness to see if all was
safe. A short time after reaching the
top of the -hill the party found that one
of their number, Mr. Wm. Million,
with his beam, was missing, and it be- s
came evident that in the ',itchy dark-
ness the man, horses. and waggon had
gone over the steep embankment skirt-
ing the road. Lanterns were procured
from Bellbird, and a diligent search
made at the foot of the hill. They
found the young nun with several ribs
