/ DEATH OF MRS. KARR
The people of the Park were startled
Wednesday last to hear of the death of
Mis-: Mary Karr in the Holy Cross hos
pltal, Salt Lake. Mrs Karr was deserv
ing widow lady, who for some time had
been suffering from an ovarian tumor.
Charitable friends raised Sl34 for her and.
by means of concert, and believing she
could secure better care went to Salt Lake
to be operated upon. Wednesday the oper-
alton was performed by Dr. Pinkerton. and
when cut down upon the tumor proved to be
OF a cancerous nature. Mrs. Karr did. rot
rally from the effects of the operation,
DYING in few minutes. She leaves six
orphan children, the Oldest of whom is only
fourteen years of age.
THE SNOW IN THE HILLS
The snow in the hills has now crust on
1t that will support horse. 1t is smooth,
and misstep, while walking over it. will
invariably send enc to the bottom of the
hill. This was ludicrously illustrated in
the descent of Andy Young from the Creole
mine, on Treasure hill, on Thursday. Los.
sing his footing at the edge of the dump. he
could not recover himself, and started
down the hill. Before he reached the bot
tom, about four hundred feet, he had com
pleted series of evolutions, first sliding,
then tumbling, leaping and rolling thai
would have done credit to a circus
acrobat. He was fortunate to escape with
only an injured knee.
THE NoRTHLAND VS.. NORTH POLE
Some interesting developments have
been daily expected from the trouble
arising out of the question of ownership of
the May blower, the Northland and the
North Pole properties, in Woodside canon.
Ihe trouble is drawing to a head now and
suits and counter suits and injunctions
are being put through the Third district
court and the first steps are being taken
by the different owners and leasers which
Will be liable to result in long, expensive
and tedious litigation.
On Thursday last, complaint was filed
in the Third district court by VIM. M.
Ferry against the owners and lessees of
the Northland property from which we
extract some interesting reading: The
plaintiff alleges THAT On or about the first
dayof September 1889, the defendants inthls
action, without the knowledge or consent
OF TINS plaintiff, wrongfully and in violation
OF the rights of this plaintiff and forciblv
and unlawfully entered into and upon a
portion OF the said North Pole mining claim
ABOUT SUI feet southwesterly of the dis
covery monument thereon and sank a shaft
down through the surface of said mining
claim, and into and upon the vein of the
same" ''Said defendants have been
Wrongfully and unlawfully engaged in
working and mining on said vein and
premises, and extracting the ores there
from. ~ THAT all the ores so mined and
extracted by the said defendants are the
ores and property of the said aintiff and
the defendant, Andrew Lundin.n
The value of the ores extracted is placed
at So 600 aand the plaintiff prays for judg-
ment in that amount An order was also
asked from the court to compel the defen-
dants to appear and show cause why they
should not be restrained from further ship
ping, extra citing and disposing of any ores
contained in the lode and grounds from
which they are now extracting, shipping
and disposing of the ores.
On the same day an order was issued nv
Judge Zane citing the defendants, Andrew
Lundin, Anna &. Street, f. r. Lubbock.
Joseph Gorlinski, l. Oleson, Ezra Thomp
son, ID. Mcdonald, F. H White, w. O,Con-
nell and w. a. Wilson to appear before
him on the Sth day of February and show
cause why they should not be restrained
from the acts above mentioned Pending
the hearing of the motion it was ordered
by the court, "that the defendants desist
from shipping, selling or disposing of a
one-half Of all the ore mined and extracted
from the premises and that they leave
remaining on the premises one-half of all
ores by them extracted or that may here
after be extracted from the said mining
premises
The case will now come up on the Sth
inst, and will be an interesting one. Mr..
Ferry now has a similar suit pending
against the Mayfower owners and
lessees, but for 100000 damages. The
Northland adjoihs the North Pole on the
south and west and the Maybe touches it
on the north. The attorneys for the plain
TN are Frank Hoffman, o. w. Powers
and Henry Shields
