WARRENS NEWS.
RICH ORE.
Miscellaneous News Re
eaI.ding the Camp.

Pony Smead gave us much infor-
nation while he was out about the ac-
tive development of the quartz mines
of Warren's S camp. He also brought
us a chunk of very rich ore from the
Lucky Ben mine, on Steamboat creek,
owned by b. B. Day and Jay A. Czy-
zick The claim has been pretty
well developed of late, and from the
way it looks now it promises to make
as good mine as there is in the
camp. The owners are going to ship
lot of ore to Omaha, and if it is
only half as good as the piece they
sent us it will pay big. Day is build
ing Il fine cabin on the claim, and
will live there with his family, so we
infer that he is satisfied he has good
thing aud proposes to stay right with
it. A good mine is like good wife,
one is enough for anybody, and a man
loses nothing by giving it his undi-
vided attention. The owners are ne
gotiating for the purchase of the
Bemis arrastra.
Gov. Willeys mill has been moved
from Steamboat creek to the Knott
mine and made q good run while the
water lasted. The mine looms W
we'll with four foot ledge Of forty
dollar ore. The Mayhower people
have made run with their mill OF
Mayfiower rock, and have besides
300 tons of ore to crush from th'
Bonanza mine, a claim owned by The
Mayhower company, and which il
said to be the largest ledge in th'
Warrens basin. The Riebold mill il
also running on 300 tons of the bes
ore ever taken from the famous Littl
Giant mine. There are lot of goo
mining properties in Warrens whic
only need developing TO be as goo
as the best. The producing proper

camp rested for so many years, wei

Fire

On Sunday morning last at about
the hour of three clock the alarm of
fire was given in the Weiser hotel,
which soon aroused all the inmates
of the house, who Immediately
commenced to do battle with the dread
element, and by the vigorous use OF
quilts gathered from the nearest beds,
the flames were subdued but not
until space of carpet had been
burned off the floor, and the doors,
door castings and stair railing In
the immediate vicinity of the hire
had been burned to char. The
cause as usual, was the bursting OF a
coal oil lamp. The loss sustained is
about one hundred and fifty-dollara
which is covered by insurance,

resulted in an incipient riot. The senior

of more or less OF muss. Usually mem

some of the college and aoademy men ma @
a charge on the banquettinR class. One
student WAS shot i'll the side hy another,
but his wounds are not dangerous. Win
dows were broken in the hotel where the
supper was to to served. The toastmaster r
was taken from his home to tho banquet
hall under guard of the police. There were
several bandaged heads Mt recitntions to-
day. 1t was the ronghest event college boys
ever engaged IN here.

ANACONDA SHUTDOWN.
1t Caused Large decrease in the
Copper Product of the
Country.
An Enormous Increase in the
Quantity and Value Of
Copper Exported.
Heavy Purchase OF Anaconda Matte, and
Its Probable scnrcity--Advance
in Copper Anticipated.

New YORK, June 5.--Bradstreets Says
Since the Anaconda mine WAS shut down
the output of copper in the United States
has shown marked decrease, although the
production of most OF the other mines has
been increased. Mine operators express
their belief that the decline in prices has
reached the limit, and the manufacturers
seem to show concurrence in this opinion
by more liberal buying. The feeling in the
market is stronger than it has been for sev-
eral months. This is probably due to this
reports from abroad, the increase in the
exports showing larger consumption in
foreign countries, the stronger demand for
lake copper and the falling off in the pro-
duction in this country.
The latest advlces received from London
report a decrease in stocks in England and
France for the first two weeks of May of
3,188 tons. This has occurred although the
receipts show an increase over those Of
last year OF 1,727 tons, the total arrivals
being 4,79l tons and the deliveries 1879
tons
The increasing export demand is shown
by the fact that our shipments of copper
this year to date are estimated to be fully
80 per cent of the total shipments for 1890.
Our shipments of fine copper for the year
up to May we're AS follows in pounds:
