Water. Or NO Water.

The artesian well which the De-
Lamar Company is now having drilled,
has reached a depth of nearly 100 feet,
in very hard trachyte rock, and is max
ing. very satisfactory progress. The De-
Lamar Scientific Club which holds an
occasional informal meeting at Bruce's
butcher shop or at the p~ost-ofice, is
taking a good deal of interest in the
question of the depth it will have to be
sunk to secure water, or whether or not
a vein of water will eyer be reached.
The dissertations of some of the mem
bers of the club are. quite Interesting.
Scientist Knapp gives his opinion as
follows: They will get an abundance
of water. This big porphyry belt in the
Owyhee mountains is underlaid with
granite at no very great depth. The
granite pitches from the east, disappear
ing from the surface nea- Boonville.
| Jordan creek starting from War Eagle
mountain in the granite never goes
Iquite dry at any point above the point
of contact of the granite and pophyry.
1t crosses the contact about where the
first bridge is above Boonville. Here
the water sinks following the pitch of
the contact. It settles in crevices
which probably form great reservoirs
obove the granite and this we'll will
more thar probably strike these reser-
voirs before reaching the granite. The
contact may not be more than 200 feet
from the surface or it may be 1000 feet.
You may depend upon it they will get
a big well.
Scientist Peck, who has given much
Thought and study to this interesting
question confirms Scientist Knapp's
opinion by using his favorite word,
"sure.n
Scientist Bruce, who has addeda long
chapter to his knowledge of geology by
standing in his shop door and watching
Jack Miller blasting iron rock to widen
the street around the point, remarked,
"Granite is. the beginning of things
They will probably reach granite be-
fore they strike water, and then they
may qait"

Court has been running all week at
Silver City, a grand jury being empan-
neled on Monday. The first case the
grand Jury reported to the court was the
finding of a rue bill against Peter
| Medlen, of murder in the first degree
for the killing of VIM. A. Steele in De-
Lamar, on April 18th, 1892. From the
number of witnesses being examined it
is apparent that a right inquiry is being
made of the circumstance of the kill
ing of Samuel j. Pri.chard by constable
VIM. Fleming. The murder of d. T.
Chrisman, which was apparently so
lightly inquired into by the last grand
Jury, it is thought will receive closer
investigation by the present jury. Sc
foul a murder as that was, should at
least be thoroughly worked over by
every grand jury so long as there is any
hope of throwing light, on what in the
minds of many people is, not a mystery,
This county cannot afford to rest under
the reputation of not using every pos
sible means of the discovery of the
guilty parties when such deeds are
perpetrated. So far as is known, all the
other business brought before the CRANE
Jury is of an unimportant nature.
Deputies are out summoning tria
Jurors, and the case of Peter Medler
will come on next week and probably
consume several DAYS time.

UNION PACIFIC EARNINGS.
Large Decrease Is RepOrted-Presiden t
Clark Says It's All BOsh.

Largo Decrease Is RepOrted-Presiden t
Clark Says It's All Bosh.
The following statement about Union
Pacific has been issued by Dow, Jones &,
Co., of New York:
We are informed by excellent authority tina,
the Union Pacific gro earnings for April show
n decrease OF about 100000. 1t had been re-
ported that the decrease would be about SEQ.
000 owing to the bad weather. From January /
10 April 80 there was small increase i'll the
gross. All the decrease i'll earnings came from
the Pacific coast. There was an increase every
where east of the Rocky mountains. The prom
Use is that earnings on Pacific coast business
will steadily improve after this month, owing
to the fact that mills which have been closed BY
South American troubles are rcsuming opera
tons.
We can state that the management of the
Union Pacific has passed absolutely into Boston
hands. The executive committee and the vice
president are there, and hereafter all board and
executive committee meetings will be held in
Boston. Mr.. Clark has taken the presidency
under an arrangement with the Boston people
whereby he will devote his time exclusively to
Union Pacific and report to them.
The transfer books do not indicate that for
eigners are selling Union Pacific There is indi-
cation that the stock is shifting between brok-
ers giving rise to the belief that the decline is
the result OF special pressure from Wall street
operators.
Referring to similar statements about
decreased earnings of the Union Pacific,
President Clark said they were ''all bosh -
