RICH SILVER MINES.

Out-On Top OF This Another Discovery
In Different Locality In the Same
State, Richer Still, Reported.

DENVER, Col, Feb. 4.-Ono of tho
most remarkable strikes of rich ore
ever found has been made in the fa-
nous Mollie Gibson silver mine, at
Aspen. A nine-foot body of ore has
just been discovered which is worth
fully $4,000 ton. The drift run con-
tinued and penetrated a seven-foot body
of ore, averaging over nine thousand
ounces to the ton. From the two-foot
body of twenty-six thousand ounces of
ore, huge pieces, weighing three hum
dred pounds, were hoisted, which were
almost pure metal. Out of these big
chunks have been sawed bricks, which
some of the principal stockholders will
preserve as specimens. The news of
the wonderful strike has been kept
from the public, and was made known
for the first time Wednesday.
Reports reach here from Boulder,
Col, that two miners have made the
biggest silver strike of recent years, in
the Orphan mine, at Copper Rock, on
the ridge between Bald Mountain and
Sugar Loaf. The quartz is reported
full of free gold. The miners and pros
pectors are wild over the strike, and
many left Wednesday for the scene,

ATLANTA, Ga, Feb 4-One of the
most daring rescues of prisoners from
United States marshals that ever oc-

day. A mother and deaf and
dumb sister saved their son and brother
from the law. Deputy Marshals
Burrell and Reynolds had raided

seven prisoners After securing the
prisoners and destroying the stills.
which were G5-gallon coppers, the dep
uties started from the place of capture
to Gainesville. Deputy Burrell fol-
lowed some distance behind Deputy
Reynolds, with three of the prisoners.
Among the three under charge OF
Deputy Burrell was n boy of only is.
Suddenly two women sprang from the
pushes The elder woman flung her
arms around the deputy depriving him
of the use of his arms, and the young
man, John Lowell, made good his escape.
The deputy soon shook the old lady
from him and raised his gun to fire at
the retreating mooushiner, when the
deaf and dumb girl sprang between
him and the feeing form of her
brother. The boy darted into the
bushes and was lost to sight. The
women were allowed to depart and the
deputies continued to Gainesville,
where five of the prisoners were bound
over.

ice?" While the young people readit with
growing interest and imbibe lessons in

elder generation but can live again the
dramatic scenes of 1901 which it por-
trays, when homes were rent and anx-
ious hearts were oVer-strained. The
story appeals to all. So too, though in
q different way, does the Arabian story
of pluck and endurance, The Lance Of
Kanana," thrill its readers month by
month. The camel race over the desert
described in the February number is
full of force and fire that stirs the blood
of every reader. Among the important

and to her.

MEMPHIS, Feb. a-Contrary to gem
eral expectation, that some weeks
would elapse before either Miss Mitch
ell or Miss Lille Johnson would be
tried for the killing of Miss Freda
Ward, the attorneys for Miss Johnson
will apply for writ OF habeas corpus,
with the view of having her
released on bail. The plea of present

the case of Miss Mitchell, will not come
up for hearing for several weeks. The
efforts to release Miss Johnson on bond
will no doubt bring out all the facts of
the killing and every incident leading
up to the tragedy Col. George CAN'T

for Miss Johnson.
