II. G. Baker, undertaken, of Elmer, ar
rived at our station ON Sunday evening
from Philadelphia, having in charge the
body of Matilda Harrison. lady who was
buried 90 years ago in the cemetery at
Tenth street and Washington avenue, in
Phila. Her son, who is now a resident
of Elmer, desired that the remains OF his
mother should rest near him. and em-
ployed Mr. Baker to remove them lie in
tended bringing them to Elmer on Sunday
night. but one of the railroad employees
gave him wrong information as to the
starting of the train and he was obliged TO
come to oar station. telegraphing to Elmer
for his wagon to meet him here. Mr..
Baker stated to a gentleman at the station
that the body was found in grave IA feet
deep. with nine other bodies buried above
it. one over the other. all Of which it was
necessary to remove before the one he was
in search of could be obtained. The re-
mains were unrecognizable, the only clue
to their identity being the burial record.
They were taken to Elmer on Sunday
night and buried in the cemetery the cere-
mony being strictly private.

mw1,, NOTES.

We are enjoying beautiful weather
at present. A few more weeks
of the present weather and the chlrp
of the chipmunk will be heard in the
camp.
Work on the Ruby Chief was sus-
pended the fore part of this week. 1t
is the intention of the owners of this
mine to do considerable work on ii
this summer.
The prospects here for 4 lively sum-
mer are very flattering. 1t is rumored
that several good contracts are to be
let, and considerable development
work done on mining property.
The Forest Queen concentrator shut
down for repairs the fore part of the
week, but is again running night and
day..
Mr.. NJ. S. Ritchie, one Of the own
ers of the Ruby Chief mine has been
to Denver. He arrived in camp last
Tuesday.
Dan Mcneil has taken a lease on
the Great Eastern. Dan is a practical
miner and he feels very confident that
he can make it pay.
The boys enjoyed themselves on
election day. Free billiards and ten
pins at the Croak House; stag dance
in the evening at Kellie'splace; every
body satisfied with the candidates
elected and no cases of bulldozing or
intimidation repor,ed.
A social hop was given at the skat-
ing rink building last week. Every
one enjoyed themselves as usual.
Talk about the patience of Job,
some of the folks here can discount
HIM. They have been waiting SIX
months for old Sol to remove the snow
from the sidewalks. They can hold
out six months longer if necessary.
Last Thursday. afternoon a young
fellow started out to win the title OF
champion Of Irwin. Pap Price was
the biggest man he could find so he
tackled him for few rounds. When
the young man was restored to con-
sciousness he wanted to know If that
was old man Sullivan. Pap lost enough
hair cut of his beard to stuff a pillow.

The Tar Heel Kiss.

Up the perfume-swept avenue o:
love and under the roseate archway of
Hymen they had passed into the joy
lit realms of that higher and holier ex-
istence where soul meets soul on the
llmpid waves Of ecstatic feeling, and
hearts touch hearts through the blend
ed channel of lips in rapture linked.
They had just been made man and wife
and their souls must meet and "swap
a swap" oflabial endearment. And
now, how can we describe that oscu-
latory performance? 1t was not a
spasmodic kiss, like a stopper flying
out of champagne bottle; or a sue
tionary kiss, like COW pu{llng her
foot out Of the mlre; neither was it one
Of those long, lingering, languishing
kisses, which lovers give when hid by
clustering vines from the glance ofthe
moonbeams. No, none of these, but
it was, to be alliterative, kind ofa
slunchwise, slantingdicular, soup-sup-
ping, sop slipping meeting Of the lips,
which went for the whole hog of en-
dearmeHt or none; and that is the way
two hearts began to beat as one.

In private letter from J. w. Dol
lison. Glenwood Springs, we take the
following bit OF news that will be OF
interest to many Of our readers:
l have concluded to locate here.
Business is very light yet, but in time
| am of tie impression there will be a
fair amount of general business.
Building is pretty lively; there are
nine brick buildings IN the course Of
construction, besides many frame
buildings. Lumber IS very scarce and
poor quality. We have part Of a
printing office, but it will be several
weeks before they can do anything
The Elk Mountain pilot., 1885-04-16

We believe it is, settled fact now
that Mr.. Motfat is to erect one of his
Jumbo furnaces on Rock Creek, at the
base of Sheep mountain. There is
plenty Of ore in that country that will
never be utilized until some means is
devised to eonver. it into bullion, be-
cause it is of such grade that it will
not stand the expense of ffeighting
that is required to get 1t out of the
country. We sincerely hope that Mr..
Moffat will make success in his new
enterprise.

What is that father?
That, my son: is a Mining camp
newspaper.
What is it for?
1t is printed tor the purpose of ad.
Vertlslng mining camp. The editor
gets all the mining news there is In
the camp and prints it in his paper.
Then he sends a copy free to all the
big papers, in the cities, and they
copy the news. In this way people
find out there are mining camps in the
mountains.
Do the big newspapers pay the edi-
tor for his news?
No, my son, no one pays the editor
fer his news.
But what does he get for his work
and how does he live?
The editor usually gets "soup" for
his work, or, in other words, he gen.
orally gets ''cussed' for trying to helr
the camp out. One man will be mad
because he does't give certain mine
big enough puff, and all the rest get
mad because they say he has given the
mine too big apuf. As for living, he
doesn't live-he simply exists. II he
depends altogether upon the paper he
doesn't exist very long.
Don't the people advertise in his
paper?
Some of them do and some of them
do not, mostly the latter. He gets a
legal notice occasionally, when it is
Of such nature that the law compel:
its publication in newspaper. Some
times he getsa ten or twenty dollar
check from outside parties who are in.
terested in the camp.
Then the editor doesn't often get
rich, does he?
Not often, my son. l have read
of one or two instances Of the kind
But they were in novels. As a rule
with no known exceptions, the mining
camp editor does ten dollars worth oil
work for every dollar that he gets, and
dies poor.
Why does the editor print the pape'
then, father?
Because the editor Is : blanket,
blanket fool, my sou.
