The Location of Placer Claims

X gentleman in Montana recently propOunded the following questions to the consideration of the General Land Office at Washington:
 l. Is an individual claimant limited 10 one location of twenty acres in placer mining district?
 ,. What amount If work is necessary to maintain the possessory title to placer claims?
 3. Can work performed or eIpendi- lures made Tn constructing a ditch for the purpose Of working a placer claim be applied to the maintenance of pos Bessory titles?
 f. Does the law require greater amount of work per annum to be per formed by 8n association of eight per sons to hold possessory title to placer claim of 160 acres than 1t does of an individual claimant to maintain pos sessory title of twenty acres more: The official answer was as follows:
 DEPARTMENT OF THE IETERIoR,
 GENERAL LAND OFFICE,
 WAsH1NCroS, D. C., Sept. 29, 1882. J. Walbridge, Esq, Baggs, Carbon county, Montana:
 SIR:-YOur communication dated the l6th instant has been referred to this Of- flee. In repIy to the inquiry therein contained. 1 have to state that the law imposes no limit upon the number Oi mining claims which a qualified person may locate. Eight persons are allowed to locate ID one placer claim leo acres. The amount of work necessary 10 main tain the pOssessory title to placer claims is left by Congress to be regulated by local laws and customs. In Colorado believe the Legislature prescribes the amount. Whether work performed or expenditures made in constructing a ditch for the purpose of working placer claim will apply to the maintenance Of pOssessory title, is a matter that de pends entirely upon local regulations and customs.
 You will understand that a location by eight persons of l60 acres constitutes only one location or claim-nOt eight.
 Respectfully.

Allllo lHlsAi--
 Durise tue winter Of 1872 a number | of men were camped near Big Bull Falls, BOW known as Warsaw, Wis. Their time
 was passed in trapping and cutting tim ber.Amouug the members of the camp
 y.as a French Canadian named Joe Du
 Chieu. One morning, and early,JOe
 gathered up his woOd-cutting imple- Llruts.a couple Of gOOb axes, and a short
 spike for pushing the tOttering trees
 which had ben partially cut down,
 and -sartl for the woods for a days
 work. The thermometer was several de-
 C-ees below zeTo.b but Joe was tough and
 hariy.aud tLe weather caused him no
 inconvenience. He worked steadily ,and
 soon had cut several sturdy trees, but Ow
 irr % the clOsauess with which they
 grew none of them Hand Joe was at a loss how to knock the pile down. He fina.y spIed huge hemlock, which stood
 about twenty feet away, and be resolved to cut it down sO as 70 fall upon the Oth- ers.thus carryng them all to the ground.
 He chopped the tree until 1t was req dy t0 fall. bus it evinced desire tO fall the wrong way.Joe fitted his spike into the tree and began slowly cutting VI trunk slid beWteen JOe's legs,and as 1t did so hIs foot was caught in a crotch and with its fall the trunk was lifted into the air to the night of about thirty feet and Joe was carried with it. His ankle was broken, but the cords and muscles lid not part and there the unfortunate man hung,head downward,an more than five miles from a human habItatiOn.
 For more than an hour he huDg there 1 and yelled in tle vain hope that some l passing Indian or trapper would hear ! him. At last the blood began to pour | rom his ears, nose and mouth, and Joe | realized that something had to be done !
 He felt in his pocket and was mortified | To find that hls knife was gone from his. | pocket. Just as he was about to give Ip all hope he felt something hanging To his trousers. It was his knife The not close, and as 1t fell from bis pocket it caught in his clothes, and there lung. Joe managed tO open the blade with hIs fingers, which were benumbed with cold. He then drew himself up mti he could reach his leg and began .uttiug he flesh. He cut the flesh away put the cords still kept hIm suspended
 With a last effort he gave dash at the .ord,. they parted and he fell. He truck in @ snow drift and was no. hurt.
 Be arose to his feet, or rather his foot nd bis stump, and binding a piece Of
 lis coat about the wound he walked five niles Co the camp. There was no sur .eou the-e.anl after eating hearty sup ger Le was placed ID b9b-sled and driv- n twenty-five miles to the nearest settle { lent The wound was dressed, and a lonth and half arterward Joe Was round as lively as ever.
