talking about. To go straight to the
point, 1t is quietly whispered that there
llsls been located In the Leadville camp
the largest body Of gold ore ever found
on the Western hemisphere, IL not in tho
world. The Comstock lode, with Its out
put of $SO0,OO0,OO0, Is hardly to be con
sidcred a marker alongside of the vast
ore deposit which has been traced at
Leadvllle.
According to the story Of a mining
man who has been familiar with the
Leadville region for thirty years past,
the ore body has been encountered at
different points, showing that 1t is at
least three miles long and Is In one place
known to be more than 500 feet In ver-
tlcal depth. The ore averages all tho
way from $40 to the ton to $1,000 to the
saca. Within the last twelve months
one mining company has taken more
than $3,O0O,00O from the deposit while
sinking shafts and running drifts. The
company has not commenced to stope
and Today has enough ore blocked out

Peaches are grown In Fremont county
where ordinarily they will not thrive
by covering the trees with earth In the
winter. In order to do this roots are no.
allowed to extend on two sides, say the
north and south sides of the tree. but are
allowed to grow on the east and west
sides. Thus when the earth is removed
from the tree In the fall, as winter APP
proaches. the tree can be bent over TO
the earth and covered with light soil,
protecting it entirely from Injury
through the winter. In the spring the
tree Is raised to Its natural position anu
the earth replaced as before about Its
roots, which had not been disturbed:
OF course this is very laborious AMI
expensive method and 1t can be prac-

Probably Shortage of $4,000 or $780,

morning says: The county commission.
ers have been endeavoring to find out
how much the taxpayers are going to
loose through the disappearance Of Matt
Adams, the ex-District court clerk. It
will take some time to determine, but the
estimate is placed at from $4,000 to
$4,000. according to the time Mr.. Ad-
ans began to set aside the deposits re-
celved by him as clerk to his own uses
1t Is known that he had been In the hab-
1t of taking the money paid in by at
tOrneys for juries, etc, for consider
able time past and using 1t to bolster up
private speculations. Mr.. Strickler, the
expert who has been at work for nearly
three weeks on the books, states that so
far as he can determine, Mr.. Adams
took no funds entrusted to him as regis
trar to the District court paid In by It'll!
giants on judgments or as tender Of So
much in lieu of Il defense, but that forj
years there has been great carelessness
In accounting for the money paid Into
his office as custodian for the county.
For every jury TO be lmpaneled THE
clerk had to get 50 for an ordinary Jury
and 81 for jury of six, which amoupks
should have been turned in to the ire
'nry. The docket fees were also allowrl
to run into arrears for long time.
The sums Of money turned into the
criminal division OF the court on account
Of fees and fines did not find their way
into the treasury for probably two years
and the revenue from that source, es-
peclally on occasions after the grand
jury had been in session, was large.
Last June Mr. Adams transferred
some of his property to his wifes name
and the remainder of " on October %.
the day after the county commissioners
decided TO investigate his office. But SO
far us the county is concerned, that did
not matter very much, as all he had was
heavily mortgaged. He has been closely
pressed financially for several years.
There are all sort OF rumors abroad
regarding where Mr.. Adams is. His
friends say he went to Arizona to en-.
deavor to sell his interests in some min
Ing properties and square his accounts
with the county. Others say he made
for Mexico. while there is still another
report out that he has gone to help res
