A NEW SHELTER.
Arrangements Being Made for tho
Erection of a 100000 Plant
Near Golden.

The public generally, who have long
since known of the great mineral wealth
of the region within radius of five miles
Of Golden will learn with pleasure that
arrangements are now being made to
establish smelter in that vicinity at a
cost that will ultimately amount to not
less than 100000. The present condi-
ton of things has necessitated the ship
ment of ores TO Cerrillos and Pueblo for
treatment at cost of So ton. With
the smelter at hand, however, the trans
pertatlon of the mineral from the mine
will cost not more than so cents ton,
thus giving a margin of $3.50 ton,
which will be saved by the establishment
of this smelter. 1t is certain that the
effect of this step will be to bring to the
front the great resources of region that
ID destined to be one of the greatest
mining regions in the west. Mr.. E. T.
Webber, Of this city, is in receipt of a
letter from Mr.. G. G. Fitzgerald, in which
he gives very complete exposition of
the natural advantages of this section.
Mr.. Fitzgerald is largely interested in the
new smelter enterprise and at the same
time ia one of the most experienced min
ing experts in the west. Mr.. Fitzgerald
says that 'the financial success of such
an enterprise is assured from the start
as it will be supported by yawning
requisition of many mine owners repre-
senting over fifty fssure veins within the
radius of five miles, none of which con-
tain less value than double the cost for
mining and treatment" He calls atten-
tion to the extraordinary number Of
mineral veins, their accessible location
and their wealth; and also mentions the
facility for procuring coal, coke and
other requisites for supplying a plant.
He estimates that $3O,O1O,000 of gold
can be obtained from the ore in the
immediate region adjacent to the pro-
posed smelter; and he speaks Of the fact
that fourteen or fifteen of the veins near
Golden, exposing nearly 100000 tons of
ore, carry $22 per ton in gold with an
additional value in silver and copper.
The smelter will be established at Golden
or in the vicinity of San Pedro.

field, fnsionists and ell. If Otero 10 day
polls so per cent of his former vote, 500
and if the Democrats stand by the fusion
ticket their combined vote will be about
$3.50 or sufficient to elect their ticket by
majority of about 800.
Politicians who put off ordering posters
till within forty-eight hours of the cleo
ton, suffered great deal of annoyance
to-day. These matters ought always to
receive timely attention. The New Mex
1cAN printed $4,000 posters for various
candidates then ran short and telegraphed
to Chicago, Kansas City and Denver for
10000 more, but the jobbers were unable
to supply them. AS a last resort the
New MEXICAN made its own gum and
turned out several thousand extras, which
answered the purpose very we'll.
The official majority of Hon. Antonio
Joseph two years ago was $40. The ma

Mora, 473; San Juan, &c; San Miguel, 1854;

TOddlerS travelling.

Two little girls and a little boy, from
near Hannibal, Mo-, passed through Lamy

dressed and their faces we're clean.
Though they we're going all the way to
California alone, they we're not afraid.
Maud was in charge of the party aud
shouldered all of the responsibility. In

had an envelope with the tickets for the

had big basket with all sorts of good
things to eat. She said she thought they
would get through all right

Maud, sis that when we get to whore papa

we look. I know my papa has curly hair,
but cav 40 many men with curly hair
since we started that was not my papa,
that don't know whether I could pick
him out"
Maud said her papa's name was A. F.
Will and that he would meet her at the
train.

An Odd Verdict.

We sometimes hear odd stories Of
funny verdicts by country iuries, but it
is not often we really come across one
in the realms of fact. A Hawkhurst
jury which sat on poor old laborer pro-
vides us with a Kentish sample of sharp
wit. The surgeon who made the post
norton gave it as his opinion that death
arose from powerful irritant poison.
The jury had their own ideas and gave
a verdict that death was due to the in
clement weather! We have not heard
whether the case has been placed in the
hands of the county analyst, but it is
certainly new that cold weather and ir-
1itant poison are synonymous Roches-
ter and Chatham England) Standard.
