A Letter from Disappointed San
Juan Gold Hunter.
DURANGO, J an. 10.

DURANGO, Jan. 10.
EDITOR ISDICAToR:-
We have Just returned from San
Juan country to Durango and we
find it complete fraud and a great
disappointment to hundreds of
people who have gone there through
the statements of our leading Colo
rado newspapers.
There is gold there but in such
small quantities and all flour gold
that all experienced miners can
make is from so cents to sl00 day,
and as to the Gable Mining Co.
there is nothing in it. They have a
couple of men prospecting with a
rocker and gold pan. People here
call 1t a cheese box.
My advice would be to you to in
form all the people to stay away
from here, at least for the present.
Several of the best equipped outfits
are going through to the Colorado
river and the Blue mountains to
prospect and none of them are re-
turning but can not inform you as
to results. Several people from
Durango have gone to the San Juan
with provisions and outfits and had
to sell at great sacrifice to the ex-
tent of 100 pounds of flour for $1.OO.
Yours respectfully,
DAVID JENSEN.

MARTIN AND GEORGE.
How two Italians Helped to Increase
the RpYenue OF the City.

On complaint of Policeman Doug
las Martin Gurlich and George
Nisher, two Italians, We're pulled
and taken before Police Magistrate
Willauer Monday night. The
charge was that Martin Gurlich was
making loud and improper noise
and using profane language, and
that he tried to shoot George Nisher
The charge against Nisher was that
he also was creating disturbance.
His Honor fined the former in the
sum of Sl5 and costs, amounting in
all to s22. and the latter in the sum
of s15., thus making $50. for the city.
The two swarthy sons of southern
Italy planked down the cash with
as much nonchalance as gambler
at game of poker and then joined
their half-dozen companions all
talking and laughing as though
they We're attending picnic.

Seal Hunters DO Not Take tho Trouble
to XIII the Poor AnImal,.
f. H. Wells thus describes an
incident which he witnessed last spring
while crossing the North Pacific,
from Kadiak Island to Sitka, Alaska,
in sealing schooner:
I'VE all gathered round the gasping
creature as it lay upon the deck, while
one of the hunters, an experienced
hand at skinning seals. barred his long,
sharp knife and prepared to remove
the pelt
He made several cuts about the
hippers when l enterfered. Tie seal
was breathing hoarsely. its chest ris-
ing and falling spasmodically. XIII
that beast l exclaimed, before you
skin it
He obeyed, or attempted to- by
cutting long gash across the crea-
tur's throat
Blood flowed forth in torrents and
covered the deck. The struggling
ceased and thought death had ensued
The hunter proceeded with his skim
ming operations and the pelt was
about one third removed when was
Mortified by another loud gasp from
the seal and renewal OF the heavings
of the chest Evidently it was not
dead and was undergoing torture!
"'Kill it" / cried and man with
one long, slashing cut ripped the an
imal open and partially disemboweled
it. Then. with dexterous movements
of the knife. he rapidly continued to
remove the pelt and had almost sep
arated it from the body when another
noise came from the seal. Its mouth
opened and it breathed hoarsely once
more.
Il could scarcely believe my eyes!
There lay creature alive. yet
skinned disemboweled and its blood
lying in pools on the deck
"'Cut its heart out!' l calculated,
unable longer to bear the sight of the
apparent suffering.
THE hunter reached his hand in
side and plucked forth the heart 1t
was warm and throbbed regularly.
Cut loose from the body and held out
in the hand. it continued to pulsate.
the valves opening and closing for
fully three minutes with unfailinr
regularity. 1t was grewsome sight
But the seal was now dead. He
no longer breathed nor moved. A
feeling OF relief swept over me.
=" do they usually die that hurdo' /
demanded.
oh. yes" replied the hunter cool
ly. They always act that way when
we skin them
Il felt like skinning the cold-blood-
ed wretch then and there. He had no
compunctions when cruelty was con.
cerned. He told me the truth, how
ever.
Thousands of seals are taken every
year by schooners in the Northern
Pacific and Behring sea, and are
skinned alive by their heartless cap
tors, who will not take the trouble to
kill them. The creature dies harder
than almost any other animal. and, as
it is warm -hlooded and sensitive, no
doubt undergoes torture equal to
any that could possibly be .-iiicted.
There is no semi, nee to unconscious
muscular activity in its case, as in the

NEW SCALES OF PRICES,
A steel Works Committee now in
the East.

Although the following news Is
stale to citizens of Bessemsr ami
Pueblo it will be Of much interest b
readers of the INDICATOR elsewhers
and for their benefit it is publish
ed.
A call was issued by Superintend-
ent II. w. Robinson last Saturday
for committees from the various
departments of the steel works to
meet him in his office as he had
something important to say. When
assembled he said that it was his
desire to have representative men
from the works go to Chicago and
Joliet and investigate for them
selves the scale of prices being paid
the workingmen in those mills as a
new scale was soon to be established
here. Improved machinery was
being placed which would enable
the men to produce much more than
formerly and to enable the mill to
run on paying basis it was nee
essary to economize; the men would
be paid fair wages but the com pany
could not afford to raise the wages
in proportion to the increased out
put.
After some discussion it was de-
cided on the part of the employees to
send as representatives, Charles
Manela and Harry Moran from the
converter and James Corrigan and
Conn Finn from the rail mill. Mr..
Robinson appointed Joseph Loeffier
and Robert Linfoot to accompany
them, the company paying for the
transportation and allowing $500 to
each man per day for expenses. The
delega ton left for their destination
last Sunday and will return sofne
time next week.

A WORKINGMEN'S BUILDING.
Novel Enterprise at St. Louis-Eiabo,
ate Arrangements for the Exposition.

Novel Enterprise at St. Louis-Eiabor-
ate Arrangements for the Exposition.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, March 1S.-There is
no city in the United States that has a
building Of any Importance whatever
devoted entirely to the uses of work
lngmen and owned by them.
st. Louis is to have one very soon.
The lodges and unions of the city have
discovered that they are paving to the
owners of the various halls in which
they hold their meetings something
like $4,000 year IN rent. and they
are tired Of it. The ruling rate of in
terest here is eight per cent The
workingmen could pay the interest on
S36o.0o0 with the money they now
spend for rent. That is the way thew
look at it, and the contemplation of
the fact has driven them to the decis-
ion to build hall to cost about $780,
600 and pay for it by the rent charged
the organizations that use il. AS all
the building trades are supporters Of
the plan the building will probably be
erected without delay. the idea being
now to finish ii this year.
new charity has been esta blished
in St Louis on such a broad founda-
ton that its success is guaranteed. It
has been found that some of the chill
dren in the public schools were SO in
sufficiently fed that it was useless to
expect them to study. They were sent
off in the morning with a scanty break
fast and no lunch. and got only little
to eat at night A plan to help these
families was at once put into opera
ton, in charge of the Provident ASso-
citation. Agents were sent around to
the homes of all the school children
who were inadequately clothed and
fed, and systematic relief was pro-
vided for the heads Of the families.
The plan was suggested first . month
ago, and the principals of the schools
report that ii has resulted in a great
increase of pupils and much more salts
factory work. The charity will be
made permanent one. and it has as
surance OF strong financial support
There has been already a rush Of ex-
hibitors to the Exposition. which opens
in September, and the management
has been forced to warn those who in
tend to make displays that they must
choose their position at once, If at AL
The many new attractions of the Ex-
position have been so thoroughly ad-
vertised all over the country that the
managers expect ten times as many
people as came last year. and all the
railway arrangements will be made
accordingly. The art galleries ami the
exhibits of electrical wonders will be
especially alluring. Director Sousa's
famous Marine Band Of Washington,
which for years has divided the honors
with Gilmore, will furnish the music,
beginning the first night of the Ex-
position. There will be two great
pageants while the Exposition lasts,
the Yelled Prophets parade. and the
Columbian procession. and considering
the sight-seers these Will draw, besides
those who come for the Exposition

are too sanguine in making their n.
