To the Editor of TBE Bus
Allow me , through the columns c
your paper , to return our thanks ti
our employer , James E. Boyd , whosi
magnanimity has equaled , if not ts
needed , that of any other cittzen it
jur midst. His genercm qualitiei
lave time and again become the tub
iect of much favorable comment Ir
; his community , but his action or
Dhiistmns eve is no less striking
, han many former ones , fein
: n that occasion he ourchased
i sufficient number of turkcyi to prc-
lent each and everyone ot h-.s era-
> loyes with an elegant turkey. Now
va volunteer to say that neither Mr.
3oyd , nor any other individual who
ras not a personal observer , could
lonceive the jubilant feelinga of his
nen when they were agreeably snr-
irised in his market room by being
resented with a fine large turkey.
Sat it is no less difficult to conceive
he ftelmgs of many little ones at the
Irrhttnaa table eulogizing the clever
ction of James E. Boyd.
We ask yon , Mr. Boyd , to accept
ur thanks in return for your Christ- *
ias gift , and _ to croM hande
ith us in wishing you many
appy daya in the future , and that
hatever business you rnny be en-
iged in nv y it prove more profitable
tan the wildcat dreams of your or
ir imagination can conceive.

A BATTERED BULLET.
Mysterious Shot and the
Manner it Which it was
Discovered.
daughter of Mr. John Evans ,
irietor of the grocery and seed
3 , Odd Fellows block , found , in
of the upper rooms of his resi-
: e , yesterday , a battered piece
etal which the young lady took to
'ather , to know what it was.
r. Evans , on examining it , found
; proved to be a battered piece of
with one end highly polished and
atling a smsll copper or" brass
Upon close nomination it was
I that the leaden materUl had
been a slug or bnllat , such us are
in brass cartridges , and about
iza of a " 32-cillibra long. "
. Evans at once proceeded to the
where tha bullet was found , and
discovered a small hole in one of
indowp nea , which was of ixtra
e thick glass. The hole was
: hing over one quarter of an inch
imetej ; the glass being shivered
racked for the distance of about
: h in every direction ,
ten the shot was fired , or whet SiT

it was an accidental shot fired

The recent return of severe cold
reather brings up agiin the question
f the fuel famine , and we are glad to
ly that a conversation with our deal-
ra hs revealed tha fact that the
: arclty cf c l is not oniy over , but
ist it was becoming i-lmost a drug in
ie market before the close of the last
arm spell. This U in accordance
ith the prediction of General Man-
jar Potter , of the C. , B. & Q , who
; the time of greatest alarm said that
nionMi or six weeks at the outside
ould relieve the pressure.
The recent discoveiy of coal on the

10 story of a vein of coal in this
by. It will be remembered that
iring the process of digging the
nion Pacific artesian well there was
one time quite a sensation on the
ported discovery of coal , which
bsided when it was announced that
e well had been "salted. " A gen-
iman interested In such matters ,

d said it was no secret to him tl.at
is section of the country is rich
th coal deposits. "I have known it
r several ye-irs , " he said.
"What knowledge do you refer to ?
fed the reporter. ' 'I will tell yon , "
said , and then he continued : ( > Do
U remember that the Union Pacific
rapany put down an artesian well in
nha a coup'e of years ago ? "
We said we remembered it well
d then he "
proceeded : "Well , a
ism of mine worked on that well ,
s toid me that at the depth of 150
t a seven foot yein of coal was dis-
rcred , and that as scon as the fact
s made known to the officials of the
id tha men engaged in sinking the
11 were paid to keep the matter a
ret. My cousin , however , told me
nit it , and I have kept the secret
lilnow. "
'I tell you this , " said our inform-
: , "to show you that the \ein which
