Charles jones, alias Julian, once of The two
miners who discovered the famous grout
of Robinson mines in Colorado after
spending nearly $4,000 made from mine,
previously discovered by him. died recent
ly after protracted spree in a saloon in
Leadville, Col, borrowing the last five
dollars with which to continue his debaucb
of his friend. Captain Jacques, chief of
the famous " vigilantes " of L,advllle Al
the time of his death Jones WAS the owner
of quarter interest of the seven most
valuable mines out of the twelve consti
tuling the noted Robinson consolidation.
The heirs OF Jones live in Vermont (ill.o
his native state) and are very poor. ihey
did not hear of their brothers death until
some time after his decease, and Robinson.
so the story goes. succeeded through a
Vermont attorney, in getting them to
accept the paltry sum of $4,000 for their
interest in Jones estate, valued al $3.50
600, which was represented as worth no
more than the former amount. In the
haste the papers were not signed BY all
the heirs, and the properly will be con
tested, for, although the heirs are too poor
to wage nn equal battle, Captain JAG ues
cnme to Vermont and visited the heirs OF
Jones and employed officers to inyestigat
the matter. but soon after returned to
Colorado. The Vermont heirs have sent
an agent to Colorado with the necessary
papers to contest their ownership in The
