P. McGrath, residing near Point of
Rocks, came to Custer on Tuesday to
procure medicine for his sick wife.
After having a prescription filed at
Rutkowski's drug store, be obtained a
pint of Alcohol upon his affidavit
stating that it was for his wife. His
hilarious conduct afterwards and the
disappearance of the alcohol, made it
apparent that he had himself consumed
it. He was arrested by Sheriff Wood,
in a maudlin condition while on his
way home, and brought back to town.
He gave bonds for his appearance for
trial before Judge Lewis to-day, and de-
parted for home in the evening.

S, VI. Booth, who has been absent at
Omaha, Rapid City and Hot Springs
for the past two months seeking relief
from a implication of diseases with
which he has been seriously afflicted, re-
turned from the latter place to his home
in this city on Saturday, accompanied by
his wife and DR.. D. w. Flick and wife.
Mr.. Booths health is much better than
it was when he departed for Omaha, and
it is hoped that through the faithful at
tention of DR.. Flick, under whose skill
full treatment he has been restored to
his present improved condition, he may
regain his former health and strength.

Mining Items

The Harvey Peak company paid for
the Logan group last week-lhe full
amount is not known.
Oscar Ricket made a survey for pat
ent for Strokes Bros. on their mineral
claim west Of the townsiie on Tuesday.
Foreman John Higgins informs the
Miner that in doing assessment work or
the Surprise claim on Greyhound creek
below the Eta Mine, the property 81
himself, Pat Smith and IVES knight
the men struck a remarkably rich body
OF tin ore. The vein is about q feet
wide and very fine. The boys feel jub.
liant over it.
The owners of the California and
Hopeful groups, G.. J. Wheelock, Ton
Blair and VIM. EVERY received the cash
on their bond for those claims in full
They had good property and that always
brings full value.
A great deal of tin property has final
ly changed hands during the past week
Mr.. James Wilson has closed the dea.
on property bonded last year, and many
of the boys know how it feels to have q
small pocket full! Of money.
The deal for the sale Of the Martins
Washington group was finally closed
yesterday. This group was the proper

payment made yesterday was $1,000
Tin Miner.
The outlook for a more rapid develop.
ment OF the tin properties of the Hsr'
ney Peak company in the immediate
vicinity Of Custer City is most encourag,
ing. During the past ten days the force
at the Tenderfoot camp has been near,
ly doubled, a number Of men have been
added to the force at Tin Reef, where
the company boarding house is being en-.
larged for the accommodation of the
miners, and at the Flora, the noted
Willow Creek bonanza, one mile and 6
half north Of this city, the number o
men employed is being steadily increas
cd. We are informed that extensive
machinery will soon be employed in
the development Of the Tin Reef and
Willow Creek properties which are
classed among the most promising minei
on the belt. 1t is also believSl to BIZ
the intention of the company to com
mence work upon q number ofclaims il
this vicinity, showing pronounced indi
cations of merit upon which little o.
nothing in the way of development, la,
yet been done, thereby increasing tn,
aggregate of me employed in thi
locality from about fifty, the number
now employed here, to two or tire,
hundred, which will materially enhanc,
the measure of Clusters future prosperity
and mark another advancing step il
the path Of progress toward the attain
ment OF the deserved distinction Of be
ing the leading Tin City of America.
The Deadwood Times Of the 10th inst
contains the annual report of Supt
Skinner of the Caledonia Mining coia

been the most successful Of many year

reduced for the year was $1,000, yieldin,
a product of 1905, 07l As. The total ex
pense of mining and milling the ore
including contingent expenses was on!,
$3.50 per ton. When mining an'
milling Is done as cheaply in this local.

turns from the reduction Of vast bodie
of ore in this Immediate vicinity which
are at present attracting little, if any al

sTRrCK GAs.

This week the walking-bcam drill of
Fitzpatrick Bros. & Collins reached and
passed through the gis-bearinG sandrock
at a depth of $50 feet. A thirteen inch
hole is still being made, and when the
sandrock was strucS the presence Of gas
was Immediately noticed. As the drill
penetrated the strata Of six feet in thick
ness the quantity increased until when
the drill had passed into the shale be.
low and the gas was lighted the fame
filled the mouth of the casing and sho,
into the air about six or eight feet
When it is known that there was over
200 feet Of water in the well through
which the gas forced itself, it is seen
that the fame represented the burning
gas with the pressure removed. This
find was expected ut this depth, as two
smaller wells within half a mile passed
through the same sandstone and found
a proportionate quantity Of gas, but il
seems more like business, more like q
money value, to see the large volume
burning at the new we'll. People have
been visiting the drill hourly since the
gas vas first ingnited, and there is q
general feeling of satisfaction that the
explorations are turning out so well
Preparations are being made 10 convey
the gas to the boiler furnishing steam
FOR the engine that is running the drill,
the well thus supplying the power To
continue drilling. 1t is expected that a
strata Of sandrock from thirty TO forty
feet thick will be encountered at FROM
$50 to LEGO feet deep, and in this either
gas or crude petroleum will be found in
paying quantities. Anyway, the comfr.
nation Of the presence Of gas in the
first sandstone in quantity that will
richly pay for the cost of reaching it, il
in itself a ten strike and means a great
deal toward the development here even
if nothing better is found.-Newcastle
