Taking 1t Seriously.

Hector Won Imhotf had been travelling
six months in the United States, study
ing the customs OF the country, before
going back to Germany to marry the
young BARONESS Emile Won Schwars-
burg-Sonderhaussen. His University
friend, Raymond Ferris, of New York,
introduced him to his cousin, LISA Wal
den, q ravishing young girl, engaged to
Mr.. Long, an elderly millionaire. After
brief acquaintance Won Imhoff remarks
to her that he would like to indulge in a
Irritation which he had heard his friend
Ferris talk SO much about,
Lisa laughed again with yely arch
face.

simple matter All that is necessary
is, a thorough understanding at the
beginning that the heart is not to med,

With this understanding Irritation
is agreed upon. A few delicious weeks
pass and Won Imhof tears himself away
to spend anonth a in Washington. At
the end of two weeks he is back again,
unable to endure the torture of absence
and rushing into her presence tells her
what he feels for her is the passion q
man longs to live for if he may; if not,
then to die for. She gently shook her
head and asked him not to make her
afraid of him, of, tg., ,. t.r,a

SO seriously. We are only friends, she

Some time in December we expect
to issue a pamphlet entitled "The
Resources of Irwin and the Ruby
Mining District" in which we will
give an accurate and concise histori-
cal sketch of this region from the
time of its discovery up to the present
date the different routes, distances
and fares to points of interest in this
state; number Of biographical
sketches Of pioneers and distinguished
citizens of Ruby Camp; geological
brief of the country a history Of our
mines, how and where to strike it
rich" the cost of mining, ETC., etc.
AS we desire to get out a work that
will be creditable to ourselves as we'll
as an honor TO our town, we ask the
kind assistance of old timers in the
matter of obtaining data. We also
intend to insert asfew advertisements,
and as our book will receive a large
circulation, it will prove the best
medium for the niue owner to get
his property before capitalists. Send
in your orders.

NEW Mill.

The Gunnison Crushing and Samp-
ling Works, which are located between
Ninth and Tenth streets, near avenue
d, Irwin, will be ready TO buy and
sample ores of all kinds by the first of
October. The buildings are about
completed and the machinery will be
put in place as soon as it arrives.
Messrs. Rose, Reed L Co., the pro-
prletors, are practical men, Mr.. Rose
having had several wears experience
in the treatment of ores in this state,
and Mr.. Reed IS practical assayer and
chemist. These geatlemen spentso
time this summer in travelling through
the San Juan and Gunnison country.
and finally settled upon this camp as
the best point for their works.
This enterprise will be great con-
veniencs to our mine owners. Here
tofore i'll order to get mill run or
small lots of ore sampled it was neces-
sary 10 ship to Crested Butte or Den
yer, which trouble will all be obviated
as soon as this mill gets in operation.
1t will be seen in another column that
they advertise to buy and pay the
highest cash price for gold, silver and
lead ores, and as they are prepared
to run all winter we predict they will
have all the ore they can handle, en-
p!!oying quite, force of men. As
soon as they get in operation we will
give more complete description OF
the works. capacity per day. etc.

Editors P,lof:.
Although this camp is but few
weeks old, yet the fact has been dem
o2strated beyond peradventure that
we have the true Leadyille carbonates
and plenty of them. This fact no one
will now. dispute. These carbonates
are proving more valuable in quality
and quantity as depth is reached, in
consequence of which the miners are
cheerful and confident as to their fu-
ture success. Assays give returns all
the way from seven to 176 ounces of
silver per ton.
/ There is no discount on this place.
She's booming! There are already
two stores, one hotel and saloon IN
full blast here, and more On the road,
among which are Beesen & Co. These
merchants intend staying all winter
as a great number of mines will be
worked.
The Doctor lode is looking better
every day and will yet prove a bo
nanza to its owners. Dodd's, J. R.
Mugan, Col. Dodge and the Haswell
Mining Cos properties are all showing
I'D handsomely. H. B. K.
