La fl1Cn MINER.
Descending 1000 feet to timber line on
the Animas, or west slope. Engineer,
Mineral and Treasure mountains and
Hurricane peak loom With mines real and
prospective too numerous to mention.
Among the more prominent properties
are those of the Mineral Mountain COM
pany of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, all locat-
ed near Animas Forks, on Mineral,
Point and Engineer mountains
The company owns twenty-seven sep
arate lodes, nineteen of which are
patented. All of the members of the
board of directors have personally ex-
amined the properties and they claim
most reasonably that no locality has yet
been discovered where so many large.
well-defined true fissure veins exist in so
small an area. The capital stock is one
million dollars, in shares of $25 each,a and
not share is on the market. William
Young and E. B. Greenleaf, two of the
directors, are personally experimenting
the developments. A tunnel has been
run 500 feet since last September, and
the vein in places shows pay-streak Of
feet of steel galena and gray copper,
with slight trace of zinc. The ore runs
high in silver. There are $50 tons of
milling ore on the dump and much more
in sight. A large force Is at work. A
25.horse power hosting engine is now
being placed between shafts Nos. l and
2, which connect with the tunnel. The
Red Cloud gives evidence of becoming
one of the great mines of the San Juan.
Mr.. p. B. Greanleaf is ssuperintending the
developments. He is also one of the di-
rectors. William Young, also director,
is on the grounds industriously working
and planning, although he is promi-
nent millionaire of Milwaukee, where he
has most successfully speculated in
wheat for twenty-one years. This COM
pany is one of the wealthiest corpora
tions operating in the San Juan country,
and they mean business. They will soon
begin developing several of their other
lodes that promise even better than the
Red Cloud. They propose to erect ma
chlnery for the treatment of their ore
after developing the mines sufficiently
"A good plan.

A Farmers Desperate Encounter with

Valentine White, one of the, Oldest
farmers residing in Bradford County,

two alrnostfamisheds wolves, a day or

Whites house sisIai huge frame barn,
with great cracks caused by .decaying
boards. On going out to the barn he
heard great eommotion. Thinking
some of the animals had broken loose,
he did not open the front door lest they
should escape, but squeezed himself
through q large aperture left by
broken board. As soon as he entered
the uproar increased, and he saw in the
middle of the barn floor heifer which
had torn herself from the stanchion by
main force, and broken one horn in the
act. e Clinging to her muzzle was a
large gray wolf, with its long, sharp
teeth fastened in the animals nose
with a bulldog grip, while another
was trying TO hamstring the poor Great

The tbellowing of the heifer, the snarl-

loose barns floor made a.: deafening
racket, and the human intruder was un-
noticed. The cow shook the wolf like

Whites anger at the attack on his stock
overnastered all feelings of prudence,
and, Selling pitchfork, he prepared
himself for an attack. No sooner did
the wolves perceive him, than, mad
dened by the taste of blood, they turned
from the heifer and attacked him. As
one of the infuriated animals sprang
toward the old man, he dealt it a mighty
blow with the fork, sending it into
corner. But the other animal caught
Its teeth in the old mans right coat
sleeve, and in such close quarters that
the weapon was of no avail. After
kicking uselessly at the animal, he
grasped its throat with his left
hand, and choked the Welt until it
let go. Then seizing again the pitch
fork, he dealt we'll directed blow and
broke the dleg. of one of the animals,
which then lodged through the hole
behind him and limped off, bowling
