Had n TorribIe Record. .

A French journal relates an incident
in which a naughty functionary re-
ceived what in the vernacular of our
own country would be meat set
down." This naughty person was a
member of the chamber of deputies,
and much given to long speeches.
One day he found another deputy
conversing in the lobby with man
whose face seemed familiar to him, but
whom he could not remember. He
fancied the man must be an intruding
journalist.
pardon me-" he said to the other
man, "but whom have we here?".
"Allow me to Introduce to you," an
swered the deputy, "the man who has
written more falsehoods and stupiditics
than any other man living" ... t" .
."Indeedl" said the great man. "Then
my supposition was correct that he is a
Journalistic"

There is one feature of the criminal
laws Of this state which in the opinion
of attorneys as we'll as laymen, is a
radical injustice. That is the statute
which requires prisoners who plead
guilty of petty offenses that come be-
yond the jurisdiction of justices of
the peace, to remain in jail until the
next general term of court before they
can be sentenced. The consequence
of this rule has been that very fire.
quently in this county parties arrest
ed for petty ofenses in the month Of
April, who plead guilty, have been
compelled to remain in jail until Oct
ober, six months or more, before they
could receive sentence and then their
punishment has been only twenty or
thirty days in jail. The country has
been to the expense of feeding them
all the time, they themselves are
kept in idleness, in fact no benefit is
apparent in any direction. Far bet
ter is the Wisconsin law under which
the county judge can sentence any
man charged with crime who pleads
guilty, as soon as that plea is entered.

direct connection with the building of
the railroad through to San Diego,
California This will be the develop
ment of the rich iron and coal depos-
its in Iron county, which are destined
to make Of that section of the territory
one of the principal manufacturing
centers in the United States. While
on the coast Mr.. Taylor was in close
communication with many wealthy
people, and he stated yesterday that
he was preparing to make the initial
move toward establishing an iron and
steel plant near Cedar. II, the event of
the railroad proposition assuming de-
finite shape it is proposed to manufac-
ture the rails and necessary iron right
at Cedar, where the conditions are
all extremely favorable for just such
an industry.
The bishop stated last evening to a
Herald reporter that just at present
little or nothing is being done with
the iron deposits in his county, while
the coal fields are being developed
only so much as is necessary in order
to take out the few hundred tons of
fuel to supply the limited market OF
the south. These conditions will not
exist for much longer, however, if Mr..
Taylor's plans are carried out, and he
now seems to be nearer a successful
launching of his several great enter
prises than at any time before.

don.

Yesterday a very painful and critical
operation was performed upon John Ben
son at the penitentiary hospital, where,
on account of his precarious condition, he
has received almost constant medical at
tendance for several days.
Mr.. BenSonS conviction for the murder
of DR.. Elliot at GrantsVille. is still fresh
in the public mind, and the case has eX-
cited from the first an unusual amount of
interest. Popular sympathy for Mr.. Ben
son has been strongly exhibited, and a
petition recently Circulated asking for his
pardon and release, has received sigma
lures by the score from prominent citi-
zens throughout the territory.
Mr.. Benson had been ailing but a short
time when serious symptoms began to de-
Velop, plainly indicating that appendicitis
had made severe inroadS upon his system.
Yesterday an operation was performed
upon the patient by the regular hospital
surgeon, DR.. Witcher, in consultation
with Doctors Baldwin, Niles and Root.
1t is learned that the operation, though
left the afflicted prisoner in an extremely
critical condition and small hope now re-
mains for his recovery. Large crowds
were gathered at the hospital, eager to
learn the result of the critical operation.
The news of Mr.. Bensons condition
was telegraphed to his mother at Grants
VILE and it was expected that she would
reach the city sometime during the even

Benson in the murder of DR.. Elliot, has

Not only are the mines of the Rob
Roy group on Indian creek, Beaver
county, being operated, but the ten
stamps of the mill on the property are
dropping on ores. Advices received
from the south are to the effect that
the mill run is very successful and
the values of the ore are being saved
to a fair per cent. General Manager
Farnsworth of the Horn Silver, one
of the principal owners of the Rob
Roy properties, has returned from
Beaver where he went for the purpose
of representing his company in the re-
cent trial of the Mechanics damage
case, which resulted in a verdict at
the hands of the jury in favor of the
company. While in the south Mr..
Farnsworth visited the Indian creek
properties and found that the develop
ments in the mines We're of a very
encouraging and satisfactory nature,
while the mill is operating smoothly
and evidently saving the values. No
cleanup had been made at the time
Of Mr.. Farnsworth's visit, but the
amalgam on hand looked very rich in
gold.
The operation of the mill, which
was commenced some days ago, is
more in the nature of an experiment
than anything else, for the present
owners are not certain that their saw
ing of gold will be any higher than
was that of the old owners until a
cleanup is made, although the indica-
tons are first class. In the event of
there being a too great loss some i'm
portant changes are to be made in
the plant.
With the exception of at the White
Cliff, James McGeary's property and
the Rob Roy, no operations or devel-
opment work is being carried on
among the Indian creek mines, al
though it is stated that some extern
sive work will yet be done this spring
and summer.
Mr. Farnsworth visited the Pioneer
mine north of Minersville. owned by
him. The new pumps are now doing
good work and the water in the in
cline and drifts is being rapidly re-
duced. 1t is thought that within a
comparatively snort time the property
will be shipping ore to the shelters.

Midns situation unchanged.

Superintendent Moorehouse, of the
Midas and Lucky May. returned to
this city from Clifton rather unex-
pectedly yesterday and it was Thought
that his visit was due to some dis
coveries of an important nature, but
when questioned regarding the matter
by a Herald reporter the gentleman
stated that there had been 40 change
in the properties since his last inspec-
ton. He is here for the purpose of
reporting to Mr.. Macintosh regarding
some details Of the prospective pur-
chase of the mines. The drift being
run for the purpose Of connecting with
the old shaft is being pushed ahead
with all the speed possible and no ore
is being taken out at this time. An
other shipment of ore made some time
ago has just been received at the
Macintosh sampler, however. There
are twenty tons in this lot.

LUCKY BILL TO RESUME.
1dIeness of a Year and a Half to Be
Broken.

After an idleness extending over a
year and a half, the Lucky Bill pro-
perties at Park City are to resume
operations during the present week.
This property is located right in the
heart of the mineral belt of the Park,
upon which are located so many Of
the producers of the camp. The shaft
is now down $40 feet, and it would
not discourage any members of the
company if the bottom of the shaft
penetrated to depth of 1000 feet be-
fore making any ore strikes of any
magnitude.
The Lucky Bill is one of the famous
properties of the Park, although but
little has ever been said of it. The
company is now in splendid financial
condition, with about $4,000 in the
treasury All of the necessary pre-
parations are being made and the &C
tual work is to commence as soon as
possible Although the shaft is down
over 500 feet, no ore has been found
below the 300 foot, on which a small
body of low grade ores was encoun-
tered but never followed. William
Curtis will have charge of the work
on the property.

Sampled and Tested.
For the purpose Of continuing the
experiments, a carload of ore from the
Golden Gate properties in the Camp
Floyd district. is to come to this city
within the next two days and be SAM
pied, in preparation for a distribution
of good sized samples among the vari-
Gus plants owned or controlled by
Captain DeLamar, where the ore is to
be tested again. Already a large NUM-
Der of experiments have been con-
Quoted and the report received from
them were of an encouraging nature
and almost any one of the processes
tried will take care of a high per cent
of the values in the ores. but than
which is the most desirab BILE has not yet
been selected. 1t is anticipated how
ever, that some choice will be made in
the near future.
Operations at the Golden Gate arr
being rushed as fast as men and money
can do the work. Three shafts are
now going down and II is reported that
ore of a very high grade has just been
cut in one of them. The newest Of the
three is in the shale which always
covers the ore bodies On the group and
within the next few feet tie .pay ore
will undoubtedly be encountered. The
new buildings are fast being COM

SHIPMENTS TO COMMENCE.
Recently Developed TOoeIe Mines
VIII Join the Ranks.

Shipments Of ore are to commence
this week from the Humbug and Free
Coinage claims, owned by J. W. Will
son and others and located some TWEEN
ty miles north of the city of Grants
vile. These are the properties in
which a strike of high grade gaiena
was made last week and reported in
The Herald. Continued development
work has demonstrated that the ore
body cut by the shaft at a depth of
Il feet was only the commencement
of a splendid deposit of very high
grade rock, and already several tons
of the ore have been taken out. The
decision to commence shipments was
reached by the owners the other day
and Mr.. Wilson stated yesterday af-
ternoon that the necessary arrange
ments are now being made.
Delivery Of the ore is to be made
at the Half Way house and to get it
there will entail an expense of $3.50
per ton, or possibly little more, but
the value of the shipments will make
this cost comparatively light. At any
rate, the properties will pay very well
at even the present prices of silver
and lead
