Blakely came, he saw, and conquered.
....Dr. Hall, Of Kentucky, dispenses
medicines in the ''shopecary pop depart

is up and around again, thanks to DR..

losing three toes. ;. The Bear Gulch
Placer Mining company are still at work,
and their giant hydraulic is perform
ing nicely. !. Gov. Williams is up from
Bozeman developing his promising gold
quartz mines at Bear Gulch. We expect
to see some fine specimens of gold quartz
from these mines. Angus Mcqueen was
over to-day and displayed some fine free
milling gold ore from his St. Jacob mine
and its extension. Joe Fisher has in
his possession piece of quartz about the
size Of hens egg, which contains some
$17 in gold, the finest specimen outside of
the Cable mine in Montana; this speci-
men is from the Germania lode. Neil
Gillis was over from Bear and reports the
development of the mines progressing. -.
Major Eaton and VIM. Sturgis are at
Bear looking over the placers of that
district. ;. Frank Kannis left for Liv-
ingston and Bozeman last Friday with ii
ounces of gold, the result of 6 tons of ore
from the Homestake mine, which he
worked in the araStra at Bear Gulch. -.
The Crcvice Gulch mines are proving as
uniformly rich in gold as any in the terri
tory now being worked. -. .Advices that
are authentic say mill will be erected
this winter in Bear Gulch.. :. Top Foley
is erecting new building in town.
More room, more liquor, more fun. -.
The boys painted the town red on the oc-
casion of Blakelys visit. Mrs. Ayhart
sets the finest table this side OF the line;
s.Jumbo" knows how to do it. Jim
Mccartney, Frank Hobbs, Chas. johnson
and Top Foley dispense ardent spirits
and made it red hot for the .Blakely ova-
tion. The town was canvassed and We find
but five votes against Blakely. -.
Miss Hamilton will poll good vote at the
election. She takes we'll with the boys.
Some anxiety is felt here about Tom
Rea and Mr.. Whitworth, who followed
the horse thieves, Black Hank and Thomp-
son. They have been out since Sept. 10Th
following by way of Cooke City and
Clark's Fork No news has been received
from them as yet. Hoppe was down
from the National Hotel and reports busi-
ness dull. =. Cooke City boys are coming
down for the winter. 1t is estimated that
about 80 men, all told, will winter at the
mines. Almost all the mines in Bear
Gulch will be worked the coming winter,
as the boys are determined to take out
abundance of ore for the new mill. =. A
test of the ore from the several mines at
Bear Gulch show Il working result of
$10.4O per ton, free milling. We are
having Indian summer here, the finest fall,
since 1876, we have had in Montana. i.
Several quartz sharps from Butte have
visited and sampled the mines here at
Bear and Crevice.. -. :. Is is expected that
the fine saw mill Of the. Bear Gulch Min
ing Co. will be run on full time this win
ter ~. We expect the boom to reach
here within the next thirty days; mark the
prediction. .Zed Daniels is around and
looks knowing; mayhap he willstart up his
saw mill in Cinnabar Basin The sale
of % 900 feet of lumber is reported from
this mill the past week. j. AL are anx-
ious to see the celebrated Horr Bros coal
mine worked this winter. CT.
