MINING OPERATIONS AGAIN.

At The instance of Enos Campbell
Prof j. Al McKinstry, the mineral
locator or switch" of Jasper county,
Mo-, came to our city a few days ago
for the purpose of telling whether OF
not mineral could be found hereab0ut.
lie is the gentleman who located the
successful Carthage mines after the
people of that town had been prospect
ing about for years without success.
His reputiiion as u mineral locator Is
wide aud he is therefore entitled 10
considerable confidence upon any as
sertion he may make with regard 10
the matter. After examining Mr..
Campbell's place he located a heavy
body of mineral short distance east
of Mr.. C's house south of Willow
creek at a depth of probably 80 TO 80
feet, and we understand u shalt VIII
soon be put down there to determine
the matter beyond doubt.
Mr.. McKinstry also looked over
Horace Ausiin's lots and said there
was plenty of mineral there but none
within ten feet of the first shaft which
I
was sunk to ii depth of 100 feet last
summer. Nearly every where else on
the ground he located mineral and Mr.
Austin, with characteristic grit, has
begun another shaft about 80 feet east
Of the frs, one, having already reach
ed depth of l3 feet. Mr.. McKinstry
thinks the mineral there is about 6O
feet deep, Mr.. Austin is quite conn,
dent of success, also Mr.. Cambell, and
the people of our city, if their conf,
dence will not allow them to "chip in
and help develop mineral, should put
themselves In condition to not bC
surprised if it be found in paying
quantities at an early date. Prof. Me-
kinstry SAYS the prospect here is fully
as good as il ever was at Carthage.

The grand cooking main held here

The grand cooking main held here
last Saturday afternoon was a great
affair-for those who enjoy such sport.
1t occurred un Ter the large u. A. Il.
tent near the corner Of Military and
river streets. Seats were erected IN
amphtheatrc form and the birds
slaughtered each other in pit just in
front of them. The main was to be a
series of nine fights between Kansas
and Arkansas birds, but unfortunate
" two Of the Arkansas ROSTERS got
loose Saturday morning and one was
killed before their keeper got 10 them
The remaining eight pairs were match
cd, however, at $25 a side on each pair
and Kansas came Off victorious by
winning FIVE of the battles in good
shape to Arkansas three. 1t was a
bloody. cruel affair, however, and only
witnessed by a handful of men and
bows noted for their cruelty % TO ami
mails. A Number went in out OF
curiosity because they had never seen
ANYTHING OF the kind, but on coming
out they were universally of the opin-
ion that they did not want any more
of il and that such things should not
be allowed. Considerable money
changed hands on the several battles.
