TAYLOR ITEMS.
fRafiax. May Nih.l

Mrs. T. F. O'NeiI left for Salt Lake
City last week for the benefit OF her
health.
James Benson and VIM. B. Ennis
are hard at IL overhauling the 6-stamp
mill at Osceola and expect to have it
In readiness to run in few weeks.
II lis rumored that's regular banking
house will soon be started In Taylor.
Nine bars of bullion were shipped
from Taylor last week, valued at $40,
053 10. OF this amount the Monitor
Mining Company shipped 1904 81,
and the Argus s10,Oss 80.
VIM. Allen, OF Taylor, q few DAYS
ago received 81 sol 80, the amount of
his pensions that have been accumu-
lating for the past 20 years. He will
from this on receive s24 quarter.
We are informed by Robert Briggs,
of the Monitor, that they are getting
ore deeper down near the shaft than
at any time; that is to say, 1t Is the
deepest down Of any yet found In The
mine.
Quite village Is springing up on
the fiat below the June mine. Natives
of the Flowery Kingdom buildeth the
regulation dwelling thereon that fall
eth far short of the picturesque. A
few short weeks ago this fiat was
devoid OF life, but DOW It bloossometh
with babItations.
A large and rich body of ore Is now
In sight in the June mine. The lease
that John Murphy and John Saviour
have on 1t will be up on the 9th of
next month. Ii the ore Is as rich a.
We are told 1t is, they will make quite
a cleanup. The mine shows up ton
to one better to-day than 1t did when
they took hold OF it.
The Osceola water ditch In com pleted
and three weeks ago the water was
turned loose on tho auriferous gravel
banks Of Osceola. Charley Busy says
the pressure is all that Is required
good work is being done. and that the
first cleanup can be looked for about
the middle OF next month.

Much Ado About Nothing.

We can hardly believe II, but Mr..
Plagoman so informs the Austin Rev.
ellie. "that while at Hamilton a few
days ago. he VAS arrested Tor violating
the anil treating law by County Clerk
J. Mckernan. MIR. Plaeenan says
he asked nun der Ia take a drink /,
among them Mekernan, who de-
clined. The others accepted, where
upon Mex arrested Mr.. p. and he
was fined 81, which was immediately
paid. Nick. WAS full OF explanations
aud said he bad no spite against his
victim but wanted 10 be revonged
upon the saloon keepers, who that
morning had refused TO lend him Sl0
The Indignation of the White Pine
people against McKernan Is said by
Plageman TO be very great, and he
says that the hondsmen of the hap
less official are Withdrawing and it
will be- impossible for him TO secure
new ones. About as unpopular a
thing as a man can do Is to make =
complaint OF this kind" The further
away Plageman gets from Hamilton
the worse light he places Mac. In, and
by the time he reaches San Francisco
he will probably imagine the Deputy
Constable "held him up" and "went
through" him for all be had-S4.

State Fair Prizes.

AS an inducement to the several
counties In the State to make exhibits
at the State Fair. the Directors of the
Agricultural Society contemplate CIV
ing prizes for the three best, most ex.
tensive and varied exhibits of farm
products, exclusive of live stock, by
the counties. The first prize will be =
handsome gold medal and 500, the
second a silver prize and $50, and the
third bronze medal aud S25. AS this
is something new 1t Is hoped that all
the counties in the State will make the
best showing possible. No better ad
vertisement could possibly be devised
for the resources of the various coun-
ties than an exhaustive display of
their various products.

The Furnace az Jasper.

The Elko Independent of Monday
says: Sheriff. J. II. Taber, who for
several days past has been up at the
new mining camp OF Jasper, in pri-
vale letter just received here, states
that the furnace started up on the
9th ult., and Is making a very salts
factory run. 1t works To perfection
and the ore reduces readily; twenty
tons, producing four tons of bullion,
being the result of each twenty -four
hours. The percentage OF silver in
the bullion Is not yet known, how
ever, and ii that metal exists in pay
ing quantity the enterprise is u pro-
nounced success. No trouble what
ever was experienced with the fur
mace or with the ore, of which there
Is an abundance, and the quality, or
rather richness of the latter, is now
the only question yet unsettled. That
II may exceed in value the most san
guine expectations is the earnest wish
OF the people of this section.

Geo. A. Bush, he enquired II he was buying
hogs. Geo. said ayes, have You any to SELL"
YES" said the Elder,"I have two; ! wish you
would lot me have five dollars on them, and
will drive them up when you ship" Geo.
handed over the money and notified the
Elder when be wanted them. II turned out
he had no hogs at all. George thinks it a
good joke.
Lige Bohlan living north of this place,
who, two or three months ago, had his arm
broken, by a kick from horse, has gone crazy.
He appears rational at intervals, but has to
have watchers all the time. He bruised his
wife up quite severely by striking her with a
stick of wood and, if help had not been near,
would probably have killed her. His wife
does not want him confined in Jail and, ss the
asylum is full, they are in doubt what to do.
We came near having serious accident at
the church last Thursday evening A rous-
ing fire was started in the stove and the pipe
came apart above the upright, falling against
the gallery, one section falling from above
and narrowly missing the chandelier which
was lighted. Promptuse of water prevented
q conhagration. In consequence of this ac-
cident there was cold time at church Sun
day, the furnace not giving any too much
heat.

better than that deep sand.
1t seems pitiful that poor, hard working
man, whose family needs every cent he can

money for whisky, and what he has left, to

Several farmers were caught with their
clover seed out, and the past weeks rain has
been very discouraging to them. Perhaps,
in regard to clover seed this fall, farmers are
not to blame for being behind, but many of
them are slow to use the fair weather in
early fall.
