1t is now an ~undoubted fact, says the
Benton Record, that one of the most des-
perate gangs Of horse-thieves and cut
throats that ever infested this Territory is
at work in this vicinity. Many valuable
horses have been stolen, and on one or two
occasions masked robbers have entered the
dwellings of isolated settlers, and by force
of arms helped themselves to the property
Of the inmates. Success, no doubt, en-
couraged the gang TO moro serious ont
RACES. and on Sunday last, five men, while
returning from the Yogo mines, were sur.
prised while asleep in their camp, near
Wolf Butte, by a party of masked men,
who demanded their money, accompanying
the demand with an order to throw up
their hands. The miners we're in bed at
the time of the attack, and OF course were
at the mercy of the robbers, but one of the
miners, who refused to give up without a
struggle, made an effort to get hold of his
gun, and was shot down by the thieves.
The gang got about $500, with which they
decamped in the direction of the mines.
Two men were arrested at Yogo on sus-
picion, and were undergoing a rigid exam
nation when our informant left. The
wounded miner was taken back to Yogo,
and although sadlv wounded will probably
recover. An organized force Of vigilantes
will be necessary to ferret ont and punish
this band, as the lawful authorities are al
most powerless to act in the premises.
The people Of Sun River have offered a
reward Of 81, 900 for the capture of the
band. but even this large sum will hardly
defray the expenses attending an extern
sive search by a force sufficient to capture
tba rnscala.

THE PROSPECTING SEASON.
A Good Word for the Men who Find
the Mines.

The New York American Exchange has
the following /: The severity Of the past
winter is unprecedented in the history Of
American mining. In Colorado. Arizona,
| Utah and on the Pacific Coast the terrible
ravsges Of the king Of storms have greatly
damaged some mines and seriously inter-
fered with the operations OF others. With
the approach Of summer, for the warm
season is but now approaching in certain
localities, the source of danger and trouble
is not yet removed. In some regions it
has only just assumed a threatening form.
Streams created by the melting snow rush
down the mountain sides III torrents. In
places they accumulate in pools, and the
water percolating through porous deposits
into the mines beneath. impedes develop
ment. The transformation which our
mountainous regions are undergoing Is
hailed by every branch of mining with ex-
c. eding joy. Prospectors have particular
| reason to welcome the genial month upon
us. With it disappears the mountain Gov
ering Of ice and snow which interrupts MS
labors. A more freddy temperature IN
viies him to the Businesses OF the great d.
| vide. or the less imposing foothills OF the
lower range, all pregnant with a mineral
wealth. Already a large number OF pros
| pectors is in the field. and more are pre-
pairing for the seasons work. The new
| FL Dorado, as the Gunnison district is
| practically termed, and the comparatively
| unknown region of Roaring Forks are
| localities to which the sanguine Colorado
| experts pin their faith. On the Pacific
Coast the lust for gold is as great as when
| the Argonauts of 40 first successfully de-
| veloped its auriferons deposits. There the
| counties along the foothills OF the Sierra
are the center Of attraction, and it is CON
idently predicted that the coming summer
| will be fruitful of good results. We trust
il NAV. The benefits conferred ty the
| efforts of these faithful prospectors and
miners are not confined to individuals.
The mines that thew unearth, while they
will enrich their owners, will also add to
the material wealth of the nation. We
wish the whole army of prospectors good
luck and God speed.
