THE oPHIR HILL.
Secretary Lynn's Report For the
Past Year.

Secretary and Treasurer Lynn, of
the Ophir Hill Mining company, has
just completed his report for the eleven
months ending Nov. 80, which makes
a very f1attering showing for the prop
critics owned by that company. During
the eleven months the .coucentrator at
Ophir has turned out 5,5a1 tons of con-
centrates. which average, $12.06 per ton
This would make the 3receipts of the
company from that source $67,429.11
The ores mined in the properties of
the Ophir Hill are silver and lead,
with trace of gold. The concentrator
is now running but two or three days
week and but little ore is being taken
from the mines. 1t was expected the
property would go into winter quarters
two weeks ago. but as the weather has
continued open it was thought advis-
able to retain part Of the force, for
awhile, at least

THE WRONG MAN.
So Ferguson Says About the Jurors
Impression.

In the case Of Tom Ferguson VS.
George Nicholson, which was tried be-
fore Justice Bartch and a. jury few
weeks ago and verdict rendered for
the defendant, the plaintiff has now
filed his motion for a new trial and
urges among other reasons why a new
trial should be granted, that some of
the jurors were prejudiced, and al
though they declared when impaneled
that they did not know Mr.. Ferguson
one of them. when they retired to con-
slider, said, II know Ferguson; he is a
skinner; this is one of his schemes. .
Two of the jurors in the case have
signed an affidavit stating that one of
their number made that remark Mr
Ferguson says the juror who made
that remark was under a wrong i'm
preston anyway, and that it was an
other man named Ferguson whom the
juror meant and whom he thought was
the plaintiff in the suit. The amount
involved is about $1,000.

WHITE HORSE DISTRICT.
A Fine Prospect Developing in the
Jim Blaine Mine.

w. H. A. Pike informed a Reno
CNev) Journal representative that the
Jim Blaine mine in White Horse dis
trict, near Wadsworth, is developing
into a fine property The shaft is now
down about seventy feet and is all the
way upon the ledge, which varies from
two to twelve feet wide. Some of the
ore has .assayed as high as $1,000 per
ton. while the average value of the ore
extracted is estimated to be not far
from $50 per ton. The mint is owned
by a Sacramento company. They are
taking out the ore and piling it up,
as they have no way yet to ship it to
the reduction works.
Adjoining the jim Blaine is the claim
of the Washoe Mining company. of
which Mr.. Pike is president. This COM
pany believes that they have a con-
tinuation of the ledge tapped by the
former company, and have a fine pros
pect.
The general formation of the White
Horse ledge is poryphory, while the
country rock is slate. The ore ex-
tracted is free gold, carrying but little
silver.

UTAH MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY.
An Interesting Lecture Delivered by
Professor w. NJ. Stewart.

Professor w. NJ. Stewart.
The regular meeting of the Utah
Mathematical society was held in the
University, Friday evening, nd an ex-
cellent programme was rendered.
Professor Stewart was announced as
the lecturer, and he treated his sub
ject, 'The worshipping of the mere
symbols of knowledge as applied to
the study of mathematics, in a. very
able manner The professor gave the
''worshipping of symbols" or the COM
hitting to memory of rules and formula
which one had not deduced, as the
reason why so many lose their mathe-
matics in a few years after leaving
school. He then spoke of the unity of
knowledge, making special reference to
arithmetic and brought reasons forward
why the elements of all the subjects,
from notation to cube root, should
be taught to the child before an at
tempt be made to make him thor
ough in one of them, and closed with
some very just criticims on matemati-
cal textbooks.
A well prepared paper on the life OF
Newton was read by Mr. Bradford, and
he was followed by Mr.. Crandall, who
gave very scientific explanation OF
the laws governing projectiles.
The musical part of the programme
consisting of a vocal solo by Miss
Lille Sears and piano selection by
Miss Gwendoline Lewis, was perform
ed with their accustomed success.

JUSTICE HALLS SUCCESSOR.
Attorney Krebs VIII Likely Be APP
pointed by the County Court.

There are quite a number of apli-
cants for the position of justice of the
peace made vacant by the death of
Clarence w. Hall. According to the
territorial statutes the appointment
rests with the county court
and they will probably act
on the matter at their session
tomorrow. Attorney c. Ira Krebs
seems to be the most likely candidate
for the position. He has received a
very strong endorsement from mem
bers of the bar in addition to which
he is popular and seems to be away in
the lead. There is business outstand-
ing in the late Justice Halls court
which when finished and the debts col
lected will leave something like $1,000
coming to the estate of the late Mr.
Hall. This business it is understood
Mr.. Krebs, in case he is appointed,
will attend to free of charge in the in
terests of the widow, which is to be
commended

Says Her Husband Is sTissionar,

Hulda. Engquist has entered suit for
divorce in the Third district court
against her husband August Engquist.
The complaint sets forth that the

sought is that the husband is mis-
sionary of the Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter Day Saints laboring in Swe-
den and has been unable 10 support
her and that she has sent him about
500 to keep him; hence she prays for a
decree Of divorce and that she be al
