Tho following interesting items are

At u time whom all is activity and
hustle and thousands are being spent i'll
preparation for the reception of rcduc-
tion works, the question is asked natur-
ally, Is there sufficient ore to Warrant
the outlay of Sl50,0O0 at this time for
milling purposese Permission having
been obtained from Manager Tonkin,
under the guidance of Foreman Dolan we
have been allowed to inspect the work
ings OF the principal mine in the Salmon
river country.
This property is situated on the west
slope of the. divide between the Loop
Loop and the salmon The ledge
work consists first of AN incline shaft I;
then in order to tap this incline at n
depth of 2l0 feet, u tunnel is run from
the west. Tho foot wall is encountered
at u distance of 4is feet and the hanging
wall thirty-scvcn feet beyond. The ore
body shown by the cross.cut is six feet
wide at this point and is wedged about
equally against foot and hanging wall
by IA coffin shaped "horse of ground,
as proved by subsequent development
work. On the foot wall n drift has been
r1tn south a distance of 210 feet. At a
point l2S feet from station, where the
tunnel cuts the ledge, the voin on the
hanging wall intersccts that of the foot
wall. From the station at the tunnel u
drift extends north along the foot wall II
distance of 335 feet. Here cross-cut
shows tho ledge TO be thirty tour feet
wide. At II point 157 feet from station a
cross-cut shows an ore body twenty feet
in width. At this point the horse of
ground entirely disappears. Tests made
show that the entire body between the
foot and hanging walls exposed by this
cross-cut will mill twenty-one ounces,
and third Of the same can be selected
= hak -aaSll.p-ul 12o ounc9s to the ton.
THE CHARACTER or THE ORE
Is brittle and ruby silver, about per
cent copper ~ per cent lead, and gold
to the extent of So orr "a per ton.
The condition of the mine Is such that
an average daily output of fifty tons can
be had at present, aud by the time the
mill Is completed 100 tons can bc
mined without difficulty. The maximum
cost of reducing the ores, as proven by
thorough tests, is fixed at SS 50 per ton,
This includes every cxpense-mining
tramming TO the mill and milling.
In order that one may form an idea of
the yastness of this ore body, let him
consider the fact that there Is on the
dump $40, 900 worth of mineral, necos-
sarily removed in sinking an incline of
2l0 feet and removing 5i5 feet of drift.
along the ledge. The ledge exposed
varies In width from six to thirty y-four
feet, and extends from the south end of
the claim, little more than onc.tiird
the length of the same, gaining in
strength going north. The development
work shows the ledge to increase in
width and quality of ore as depth Is ac-
quired The result of such inquiry is
the conviction that here is an ore body
confined horizontally by the parallel

HOUSE AND BARN BURNED.

The Payne Homestead Near Pritch-
 ards Pond Reduced to Ashes.
 The dwelling house and barn of Mrs Jane E. Payne, widow of Henry Payne. on the upper road at Simonsville, near Pritchard's pond, was totally de- stroyed by fire about 12 o'clock to-day. The origin of the fire is a mystery. Mrs Payne was up town and her daughter was the only oc- cupant of the house. The flames were first discovered in the barn and rapidly communicated with the house which was close by. The contents of the barn, consisting of hay, farming tools and a calf, were de- stroyed, but neighbors saved most of the household furniture. The location of the fire is beyond the limits of the fire department and nothing could be done to save the building. How the fire orig mated is mystery, but is believed to have been the work of tramps. The loss is about S1 800; fully insured.

 Lovett has shown up very strong in the games he has pitched thus far for Brooklyn. President Byrne is greatly elated over his fine work.
 O'Rourke of the New Yorks says that Ames, Princeton's pitcher, is better man than Stagg was when in his prime. This opinion is, he says, founded on na- ture and deliberate judgment.

AGAINST SALOON SCREENS.

The New Law Will Make Sunday
 Selling Almost Impossible.
 The following new law, which will go into effect on July 1, has been passed by the legislature:
 Section 1. No premises where intoxi- eating liquors are sold shall, during the time when such sales are prohibited by law, be so obstructed, by any curtain, screen, or other device, as to prevent a full and unobstructed view of the bar and interior of such premises from the main entrance, or the street or sidewalk adjacent thereto. Boards of county sions of this act, by such rules and regu lations, not consistent with law, as they may deem eXpcdient.
 Section ?. Every person keeping sa loon or other place where intoxicating liquors are sold, excepting only licensed druggists, who fails 10 comply with the provisions of the preceding section, shal be fined not more than fifty dollars ol imprisoned not more than thirty days or both, for each otfense.
 This law will have an important hear ing upon the sale of liquors on Sunday If enforced, it will have the effect to re- move all screens or other devices from the front of the saloons from 12 o'clock Saturday night till 5 o'clock Monday morning and on all other nights after midnight. This law follows ill the foot steps of Massachusetts law which has removed the screens all the time. The Connecticut law only goes half way and does it part of the time. It will make the sale of liquor on Sunday matter of more easy detection.
 It will not be so easy for a saloon tc become filled with forty or fifty young men on Sunday evening, as has been testified to in court, without the outside public knowing it. The drinking will have to be carried on in some back room away from the usual place of business Doubtless this will be done to a certain extent.

ADJUSTMENTS.
The Wife,


 The rather small audience present at ''The Wife" by the Lyceum theater com plny last evening witness d one of he best entertainments of the season. The play has been a great New York favorite. The cast as presented last night was ex- ceptionally strong and evenly balanced. Frank Carlyle as John Rutherford and Miss Berlin Gibbs as Helen Truman were of course the ones upon whom the play centered, but they had an able support in James o. Barrows as Major Putnam, John Flood as Silas Truman, s. Miller Kent as Robert Grey, Miss Stella Tenton as Lucille Ferrant, and last but not least the charming young lady who took the part of Kitty, but whose name did not appear upon the programme.
 Murray and Murphy.
 The Hartford Post recently said of the production in that city of ''Our Irish Visitors by the two we'll known Irish comedians: The opera house was again filled last night with a laughing audi ence that listened attentively to the jokes and ramblings of Murray & Mur- phy, and went away with tears in their eyes. These merry-makers need no in- troduction to Danbury theater goers. They will be at the opera house this evening.

Dissatisfied Militia Men.

Some dissatisfaction exists among members of the c. N. G. because all the militia of the state was not ordered to New York to participate in the celebra- tion that is to take place there the latter part of this month. Many competent military judges claim that the Connec- ticut brigade is the equal if not the su- perior of the militia of other states. Now they reason is an opportunity for a comparison which will probably not oc- cur again ill good many years. New York, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Vermont and Pennsylvania will send their entire brigades, and Massachusetts three regiments and two corps of cadets. Connecticut, the New England state nearest to New York, with facilities for cheaper and quicker transportation than any other state is to be represented by a single regiment and one company.
