Uses For Baby's Shoes.

Several pretty trifies may be made
with babys shoe for the foundation Of
each. Line the shoe with a pretty tint
of chamois skin over layer of perfumed
wadding. Leave an edge of the chamois
skin to stand up about the top and along
the lacing place. This edge should be
neatly pinbed, If the shoe is fresh and a
pretty color, say pale blue, add rosette
bow of baby ribbon, putting it on the
end of the lace holes. If the shoe is soiled,
bronze or gild it before adding the bow.
This will be found convenient as watch
pocket or as a receptacle for finger rings
and other articles OF jewelry.
Take its mate or shoe of soft gray
morocco, line it with pink china silk and
let the silk come up at the top long
enough to form bag. Run shirrs, into
which put silk cord for drawing strings,
This little bag will serve a variety of
uses, among which is a bonbonniere for a
loved friend or some favorite little girl.

FLAGSTAFF MINING COMPANY

This is the name of the latest incorporated
company for Ferguson district and which
was organized last week under the laws of
this State.
The properties Incorporated embrace the
Flagstaff, Apex and the Boss locations on
which work has been going on for six months
past with very fattering results. The
claims cross each other aud the surface pre-
sents an unusually fine showing. The Apex
ledge, supposed to be a continuation OF the
Jumbo. enters the north end Of the Flagstaff
and is traceabe on the surface nearly the
whole length of the claim. The greatest
outcrop is about the middle OF the location
where for 300 to 400 feet the ledge crops
out boldly to height of from four to
twelve feet and is from twelve to forty feet
in width. Sampled generally at various
times this ledge has always returned good
assays in gold, some running very high In
appearance, outcrop and generalltles this
ledge closely resembles that Of the April
Fool claim situated very nearly north of it
and about 5000 feet off
On the Boss claim the ledge has strike
of about north-eas and southwest and is
traceable nearly the whole length Of the
claim. This location crosses the north end
of the Flagstsg, and the ledge within the
Flagstaff lines has bold outcrop and in
places is thirty feet in width, These
immense veins are not uncommon for Fer
guson district,
At about the intersection of the Flagstaff
vein running north, with the Boss, atwenty
seven foot shaft shows 81 to $ll quartz for
its entire depth, and on all sides.
The present workings tapped this vein at
about 100 feet below the surface where the
first samples taken showed $500 in gold to
the ton in some cases, with streak OF
about ten inche, wide which averaged about
$40, outside of which several feet OF white
quartz was fopud to run from 81 to 81.
While this is good, something far better is
expected when the Apex vein is encounter
ed and work with night and day shift, is
being prosecuted in that direction.
The various owners of the claims consti'
tute the incorporators. They are }. A.
Denton, James Nesbitt, George Nesbitt,
T. j. Osborne, Luke Syphus, George
Syphus, c. 2. Ronnow, James II. Empy
Z. L. Godbe and w. L. Cook The capita
stock is placed at 81 900, 900, divided into
100, 900 shares at a par value of $40 each
The work on the claims in progress fol
the past six months will be continued.
Eight men are at present employed and the
number may soon be increased, and the gen
eral impression OF all who have examined
the properties is that it will develop into {
big dividend payer when properly opened

Shooting at BullionvilIe.

Sheriff Z. D. Turner was called to Bullion
vile Monday afternoon to look after one w,
L. Dow, recently employed as an amalga'
mator at the mill there. The man was dis.
charged and paid off last Saturday, upon
which he proceeded to booze up, and on
Monday, early in tho afternoon, ne rode to
the mill and fired two shots when about 70
feet off, at Walter Reeder the foreman, who
with several others was engaged in putting
roof over the Howell rooster. He then
rode away and when the sheriff arrived he
had skipped for Panaca where he remained
in hiding until the following day, when,
failing to secure his trunk he came and gave
himself up. His explanation was that he
hadn't tried to hit anybody but wanted
some boisterous fun and as neither Resder
or the workmen would say otherwise, no
criminal charge was preferred, the matter
was settled and Dow left for Montana by
yesterdays stage. He came to Bullionville
from Montana only six weeks ago and is said
to have been COW boy there.
