The Coming Season Promises to BE IA busy
One About Yogo.
Despite the cold weather tho develop
ment Of the gold mines of the Belt
mountains has been going on all winter
and the placer mines as we'll as the
quartz bids fair to rival any other section
of Montana in the output Of the precious
yellow metal. S. S. Hobson of Utica
and his associates have commenced and
will have completed by spring a canal or
ditch for a distance of six miles, to con-
vey the entire water of Yogo creek.
The cost Of the ditch when completed
will be $4,000. It conveys the water
out of the gulch to the foothills, where
there are thousands of acres of gravel
which yields from Sl.5O to $500 in coarse
gold to the wagon load.
Mr.. Hobson, in company with Jacob
Hoover, who is the original discoverer of
Yogo, spent all last season in prospecting
the ground and determining its extent
and richness.
The gold quartz leads in the same
section, the Blue Dick group, the
Weatherwax, Z. G. and Commodore
Power leads, which have been tested by
crude processes, have yielded from 81 to
$40 gold per ton. The leads are very
large, ranging from eight to forty feet in
width, and some of the leads carrying a
high per cent in copper. With the neces-
sary capital to open these mines in Yogo
and the Middle Fork of the Judith river,
that country will come to be the largest
gold producing camp in the state.

MINING IN WYOMING,
told Near Rawlin in an Old Estab-
lished District.

dold Near Rawlins in an Old Fstab-
lished District.
RAwLINs, Wyo., Feb. 1?.-There is
just now much activity in gold mining
in this vicinity. Prospects that have
been idle for years are now receiving at
t%ention, notably in the Seminoe districts
thirty miles north. Six years ago the
Penn Mining Company, a Wilkesbarre,
Pa, company, who were operating a ten
stamp mill, suddenly closed down their
mill and abandoned the camp, giving no
reason for their strange action, as they
always gave out the properties were pay
ing we'll. About six weeks ago they
let a contract to Mr.. B. T. Ryan, through
the First National bank of this city
for development work to the amount of
$4,000 upon their properties. Mr.. Ryan
was a few days ago in town and secured
fourteen men and left for Seminoe to
begin operations. All the leads in camp
prospect rich in gold on the surface, and
as no great depth has been reached, the
deepest shaft not reaching more than 100
feet, it is expected some rich bodies of
ore will be encountered when greater
depth ls reached. The beginning of
work by the Penn company will be the
means of stimulating development work
the present summer and prove the value
OF the camp az a gold producer.
A townsite has been located on -Four
Mile in the district OF that name. f. A..
Hinman: F. J. Cramer and E. W. Leagett
are the projectors, 1t is located Just
across Timberlake from the camp Of the
Fonr Mile Mining company. There has
already been a hotel erected which is
conducted by Mira. G. w. Kelly, Dunbar
and Trsmell OF Dixon are at work erect
ing a building which will be used for a
saloon. Ira r. Bachelar of the Gold
Valley company has returned from
Denver where funds we're secured TO
complete the ditch from Slater to the
Four Mile placer grounds. An Omaha
syndicate has recently purchased a
number Of claims on lower Four Mile
upon which they secured options last
summer, paying $4,000 for the same.
They will be operated by dry process
machines which they thoroughly tested
last summer and pronounced a complete
success. Many locations are still being
MADE daily, nearly the whole country
between the Snake and Bear being 10.
Gated, and extending for many miles up
and down the Snake. Perkins new
hotel at Dixon will be completed and
ready for the early spring rush.

W0MAN'S SUFFRAGE MEETING
The Spacious PariOrs Of the Grand
Central Hotel Filed to Overflow
ing With Ladies.
Lady Canvassers Report That Over
One Thousand signatures Have
Been Received.

Wednesday afternoon Mine Hos,
McDonald's parlors were taxed to theil
fullest capacity with ladies who are in
terested in the question of woman'f
suffrage. The attendance was much
larger than on any previous day, and the
enthusiasm was correspondingly in.
creased.
The committee who waited on the
business men reported that they had
secured 249 signatures from men and G
from ladies employed in business houses,
while the house to house %canvaesing
committee reported having obtained 928
signatures of men and women, making a
total of l,lS3 signatures, and as these
ladies have not yet finished their work
the total will probably be largely aug
mented when their reports are further
made up.
AS the question of the Endorsement of
woman's suffrage is to come up before
the Trades and Labor council a commit.
tee consisting Of Mines. Rolfe, Perry, and
Emerton was appointed, whose duty it
should be to lay the matter before the
various members of hat council.
Another committee, composed of
Mines. Hodkin, Emerton, Chase, Sher-
man, Desilets, and Rolfe, was appointed
to present the claims of woman suffrage
before the various labor unions.
At the close of the routine business a
general conversation was INDUCED in,
InrInp which fhn uIoe%iDr ,F fopr;,r, ,
permanent organization was discussed.
DIR. Isabel Gliddon suggested that
such a society be inaugurated and that
it take the form of IA social club for the
study of political economy in general as
well as the matter of the laws, both fed
eral and state, particularly as they affect
women.
Miss Helen Edgerton stated that she
bad taught civil government and kindred
for sometime past, and had done
so to students both male anu female,
and she found that the young ladies
we're in every way as able to understand
the subject as were their brothers, and
in many cases they excelled them both
in classes and in examinations. Her
experience taught her that these young
ladies are quite as ladylike and attractive
as those who summed such subjects.
Mrs. Rolfe said that it had been sug
gested to her by one of the business
men that a society, composed of both
sexes, be formed to discuss and study
matters political.
The up-shot of the suggestions and the
remarks that they caused vas the deci-
sion to meet again at the Grand Central
hotel next Tuesday at 2:30 p. m, when
the subject Of a permanent organization
will be decided upon.

Special to The Tribune.
HELENA, Feb. 13.-At this morning
session of the Cleary murder trial tn,
state concluded it's case and the defens.
started in to secure the evidence of itt
witnesses. DR.. Billiard was the first
witness of tho state. He testified thai
he had made an autopsy on the body Of
Dorrity and found that the bullet On.
tered on the left side at the back of
the neck. just below the collar, ranging
forward and upward. 1t struck the jaw,
breaking it, and lodged in the lower part
of the chin. The doctor said the wound
was necessarily fatal. Attorney Purcell
at the conclusion Of this testimony
stated that he had sent some officers to
make a measurement of distances be-
tween certain points at the scene of the
shooting. AS the officers had not re-
turned, he was wiling that the defense
should open the case, providing they
would allow the state the privilege Of in
Producing these measurements at some
future time. This was agreed to by the
defense. John Hogan was then called,
and stated he had seen the men in the
Capital saloon, but had not seen the
shooting. He said he was standing on
Wood street when his attention was at
tracted by a shot. and on looking up
Main street he saw Cleary running up
the street and cav Dorrity lying on the
sidewalk. He was the first man to
touch Dorrity's body. and he turned the
dead nan over on his back. As he dld
so one OF the ~bystanders exclaimed,
Look here" and, stopping, picked I'D a
pocketknife which had been concealed by
the dead mans body. Hogan stated at
the coroner's inquest that this knife was
a white-handled, long, plated one, but in
his testimony at this time he was unable
to say what kind of a knife it was. At
torney Wallace then opened the case for
the defense. In making his opening |
statement he said that among several
he intended to prove was the
treacherous and bloodthlrsty character
of Dorrity and that his reputation was
bad. After the attorney had finished
Officer Reed was placed on the stand
and stated that he had measured the
distance from the corner of the Bristol
to the place where Dorrity's body
Tell and that 1t was 155 feet. Several
witnesses were On the stand this after
noon, but nothing new was developed.
Several of them stated that they had
heard Dorrity make threats to kill
Cleary before he went to bed. The de-
'ense will probably not close its case till
tomorrow.

tiers numbering from me to fifty, treb-
ling itself at every number, and asking
every one receiving a copy to send ten or
more cancelled stamps to Miss Brown.
After the start the good. natured public
took hold with a will, and cancelled
stamps are pouring into the Kaneville
p~ostofice.
Miss Brown, who has now become
Mrs, Garman, is receiving from 10000 to
1900 letters every day, and already has
on hand millions of Cancelled stamps
which she does not want, and has no
idea how to dispose of. Her chief wish
now is that stamps would quit coming.
Postmaster Shoellhorn, meanwhile,
has the distinction Of handling more
mail daily than any other fourth-class
postmaster ever did. One day recently
he turned over 10000 letters to Mira.
Garman As Kaneville is not on any
railroad, the mail is brought once a day
by stage from Sugar Grove, eight miles
away. Before the ''chain" got in work.
ing order, only a handful of letters ar
rived daily; now there are bags of them
and the trouble continues to grow.
Where it will end 10 one knows, but the
postmaster and Mrs. Garman devoutly
wish to have the thing stopped at the
earliest possible moment. AS might be
expected this large correspondence has
its humorous side. The Record corree-
pondent made the Garman home a
visit and found MI. and Mrs. Garman
chatting about one especially interesting
letter and exhibiting a photograph from
a gentlemen stamp contributor. who
thinks that Miss Brown is just the lady
he has been looking for to be- his wife.
1t is needless to Say that Mr.. Garman
does not agree with him.
So far as is known, there has been no
offer for the Cancelled stamps. The
whole outbreak seems to ave been the
result of a mistaken idea that there was
q market somewhere for these worthless
bits Of paper. It is estimated that if
The ''chain" could remain u%nbroken,
Mrs. Garman would receive in round
numbers 1,076,S ST. ,000, 900, 900, 100000, |
etters. If each letter contained ten
cancelled stamps, Mrs. Garman would

KANEvILLE, Ill.-The entire country
is becoming interested in this small vii
lage because of the astonishing SUCCESS
Of the now celebrated stamp collecting

nence two worthy jewellers in Kaneville
Mrs. Edna r. Garman, better known
to thousands of benevolent stamp con-
tributors as Edna Brown, and the hard
working third-class postmaster, MI.

heard of a cripple in Sycamore, ILL.,, who
set out to collect 100000 Cancelled
