convinced before the arrival Of the day set
for his execution that there was doubt as

and before he would be removed from the

thoroughly convinced of bis innocence that
he would receive tull pardon. But he said

be. In no event would he commit suicide,
even though tho means were right at his

PETITION FROM THE PEOPLE.
The people of WeatheSford, few days
before my interview, had forwarded to Gov
ernor Roberts petition signed by over six
bundled citizens asking for communication
This petition was endorsed by Judge Hood,
who passed the death sentence; County At
torney B II and eight of tho twelve
jurymen who convicted Burton. Numerous
letters from individuals we're also sent the
governor by citizens of Weatherf0rd, asking
for Communication. Burton has brother in
Weatherford, prominent attorney at law.
The family are we'll connected in Hardin
county, Kentucky. The father of the
Burton boys is dead, but their mother still
lives. She knows nothing Of the troubles of
her uDft r.unate son. MS precautions have
been taken to keep her ignorant Of them.
1t was William NJ. Burtons laet request OF
me to take no pains TO inform his mother of
his troubles ,r his fate.

Wesley Whitener. the honored Sheriff
OF San Juan county, who, 4 few days
since. was seemingly in good health. hav-
ing performed 4 hard days work OH the
Wednesday, entering his house toward
evening, he felt somewhat wearieb, re-
pairing to his bed, whereupOn two of his
children were lying. he said make room.
Imust rest awhile" he then retired TO
Sieep-the sleep Oi peath-iOr this it prov
ed, dying in few moments without a
word or struggle.
In his deceaSe the county has lost an
efficient officer. and The community a use
iul and upright citizen. Sheriff White
ner waS u man of large heart and warm
sympathies; always kind, genial and true,
and ever welcome TO our homes. He was
emphaIically good man; faithful TO hi|
friends, lenient and torebearipg towar
his foes, and always OH the side OF publ
morals. He was plain ma and avoide
diSplay-a man OF deeds rather than ol
wOr,lS. His home life WAS beautiful |; mont
bOv be more tender a ud loving; father
| who sought 20 make his home a happy
one. Brought up in the faith OF the Pres
! hyterian church, he adhered 10 the in
>trnctions of his early years. and was a
man of prayer, knceling daily with his
! family at the Throne of lIrace. A wife
and five children remain TO mourn his
loss. May the Father OF the faiherless'
abundantiy bless them, and give them
grace 10 say ia the spirit OF true christian
submission, The Lord gave, aud the Lord
hath taken away, blessed be the name OF
the Lord"
IL is said that death loves n shining
mark, aud it truly seems as if the bright
est and best loved. are called first fiom
earth, where their pure example and gen.
/ tie influence are so much Leedcd.
! Gods ways are not mans ways, and we
know that lie docth ali things well. -
The bright example left by departed ones,
is not lost TO those ho survive; they vet
speak with power and eloquence no liv-
ing lips con equal. This loving husband
AID father would speak words OF comfort
aud cheer 10 the loved ones he has left
words OF bl.'sSed assurance and heavenly
peace to the aching hearts OF those who
mourn, and whom he still loves with l
purer and stronger affection, than he ever
manifested here. We can truly say 10 his
bereaved ones ''IIc is not dead. lie did not
die. but suddenly ripencd into life" is
now real being, walking with real be-
ings, for 10 be! is eternal being!" lie
rests from his hbors. sOrrows and wcari-
ness Earth's cares anu perplexities have
no longer dominion over him. Yea,
saith the spirit he rests from his labors;
and his works do follow him.
Mot for thee shall tears be given,
Child OF God. and heir of Heaven;
For he gave thee sweet release,
Thine the christians death OF peace.
Brother, in that solumn trust
We commend Thee. dust To dust,
in that faith we wait. 'Iill risen,
Thou shalt meet Us all in heaven.''

THE ALASKA MINES.

George E. Biz furnishes the "Mi.
ming Press" some Information con>
corning the mineral developments in
Alaska. He has obtained very rich
quartz from new district, of which
he says:
The district is called after the discoyerer
"Harris District, " and is situated on tb,.
MARYLAND of Alaska, between the Takou
and Chilcat rivers. in $50 IS min. north
latitude. and longitude 1910 10 min,
within ionr miles of Stephenson straits,
opposite Douglas island. Oh the northerr,
end OF Admiralty island.
In Gold creek and its trihu,s rias
some sixty claims are now ALREADY taken
up and staked OUT, and oil all very en-
couraSinS prospects have been found.
lhry may be calIrd IS TO $40 diSyings.
But very little can be done there before
Apri! or May, as the men are not pre- par
ed To- WORK yet. and are eDly getting read
ana prospecting their grounds.
The ledges which made these placcrs are
at the head OF the creek, and cross the
creek twice i'll a distance OF about two
miles. There i bnt one belt of them.
which is about 1900 feet wide. aud in il
the six main ledges run parallel TO each
other, besides number OF smaller veins,
but which are taken in by the main locl-
tlous, rs these are only about 300 TO 800
feet apart. ard ARE from 6 10 80 feet in
width. These lodeS. which show bold
cropping for over inches $50 far as have
been on theml. hold very regular in size
anu distance apart, and the whole length
show the richest kind OF ore. | have
lffl fNf n.
hre aud wet, and the lowest assay out OF
the very poorest vein Of quartz. yirl,itd
S53 per ton. while the average of my as
says. which might also DE called the aver
age OF the letlSeS. are S2S5 Der ton, and
run from 800 To 5000 per ton; and then
ilaYe never yet aSsayed any specimens.
The lodges were respectively called the
jamestown. Takou, BilZ, North Star.
Montana. California :Odes, and OH each
there are claimed already six locations OF
1900 feet each, with plenty of ore on all OF
them. In the creeks lay thousands of tons
OF the richest ore. every piece OF which
shows the goll plainly, and good many
OF the placer claims are valuable for the
quartz which lies on them.
This gentleman has had other pros
pecting parties out. One of them
found a silver ore district. He has
received samples of chloride and bro-
mite silver ore, argentiferous galena
copper silver glance, an:imonial sill
yer and sulphurets of copper. This
is called Morrisania District. He
promises to visit it in the Spring. If
the results of his search for ririch ores
are half as good as he seems to be
lieve, Alaska has future rs a mining
country.
