COFFIN ON HIS MUSCLE.
HARDWARE MAN ARRESTED FOR
ASsAULTING l.. NJ. sPRAGUE.
Today-Young HoodJums in Po-
lice CONTRIBUTIONS Offenders
Charlie Ross and Jane Brown
Fined For Fast Driving.

z. c. Coffin, the well-known hard
ware man, was arrested yesterday for
assault and battery on the person of
L. NJ. Sprague, a mail carrier The
two men were engaged in an argu-
ment when Coffin lost his temper and
smashed away at the employee of
Uncle Sam, hitting him jolt which
made him see stars. The row was
over a bicycle. Coffin was arrested
and taken to the station. Police court
was ended when he arrived, but the
justice allowed him to enter a plea of
not guilty and his hearing was set for
noon today.
Dan Davis and Roy Wilson were be-
fore the court charged with malicious
mischief The two lads were charged
with having annoyed an old lady by
throwing rocks at her house and other
wise making her life one weary jour
ney. They admitted the shooting of
small shot against the windows with
an air gun, but said they had done no.
thing worse. They were turned loose
with an admonition.
In this connection, the justice says
he is determined to put stop to a
system of hoodlumism which is pre-
vailing in this city. There is hardly a
day passes when some one does not
make an appeal for protection. 1t is
usually the case when such acts are
alleged, that none but the little boys,
who are egged on by older ones, are
caught The larger ones invariably
escape The court wishes it under
stood that he will make an effort to
have the real offenders caught and will
punish them severely if the evidence
warrants.
Charlie Ross, man aged about 81
years, and Jane Brown were up be-
fore the court charged with fast and
reckless driving. 1t appears that the
pair were out with a frisky horse and
enjoying a drive around the city. when
Jane conceived the idea that she
could drive as well as Charlie. He
gave her the reins and all went well
until the corner of First South ana
Main streets was reached, when she
ran over a lady. They were arrested
and yesterday pleaded guilty and were
fined $3.50 each. The ride cost Ross IS.
not to mention the hire of the horse,
and in the future the gay old sport
will do the driving himself.

amount.

I have recently obtained samples of
the chief baking powders in the mar
ket, and have subjected them to care
full chemical examination to determine
their purity, wholesomeness and leav-
ening power. AS the result of my
tests I find the Royal Baking Powder
superior to the others in every respect.
1t is entirely free from all adulteration
and unwholesome impurity. and in
baking it gives off a greater volume of
leavening gas than any other powder.
1t is, therefore, not only the purest, but
also the strongest powder with which
I am acquainted.

Washing of travel to Commence
Early Next Month

NashinE or travel to Commence
Early Next Month.
Hon. Robert C. Lund yesterday re-
ceived advices from the south to the
effect that the washing of gravel at
Temple Bar. on the Colorado. is to
commence in very earnest on the first
of the coming month and the company
is making some extensive preparations
for the work. r. II. Corbett, of San
Diego, one IF the heavy stockholders,
has just reached Kingman, Arizona,
from. visit to the placers and there
reported that one OF the McKesson
boys had washed a cubic yard of
gravel from the bedrock at Temple
Bar and found that it contained S27.
This result electrified the oldest miners
in the vicinity and great excitement
was the result.
Some two miles inland the Walnut
Placer Mining company is operating a
dry washer with great success and il
is reported that forty of the machines
viii be placed in operation within the
next forty days. Some ST. George
boys have received the contracts for
furnishing these companies with fresh
beef for their operators, and this alone
promises to be quite an industry.
Mr.. Lund states that the run of the
Barbee & Walker mill, at Silver Reef
has just been finished and the last bar
of silver bullion shipped. The miners
at work in the properties now open

Irving C. Stump. of New York, one
of the best known mining operators
and financiers in the country and
manager of the Hurst estate. was in
the city for a few hours yesterday,
on his way to Anaconda, Montana,
where he has special business to claim
his attention. The gentleman came
down on the morning train from Og-
den in order to spend a short time
here before the departure Of the
northern train. During his stay in
the city the gentleman visited among
his many old friends and wrote let

Completed the Reservoir.

The reservoir of the Bullion-Beck
has at last been fully completed and it
is anticipated that within the next few
days the water will be turned into the
same, in order that sufficient supply
may be obtained to make possible the
operation of the mill to its fullest ca
pacity. At present the plant is not
treating within nearly a hundred tons
of the amount it can take care of I'M

Cottonwood Mining Co. Here.

Cottonwood Mining Co. Here.
Z. Y. Church, one of the eastern gem
tlemen interested in the Big Cotton
wood Mining company. incorporated in
this city some months ago, and the
owner of a, very valuable group of
mines situated just below the Baby
Mckee in Big Cottonwood, was in the
city yesterday, and in company with
several of the local parties left for
the mines during the morning for the
purpose of making an examination
preparatory to the commencement Of
active developments. 1t is the inten-
ton of the gentleman while here to
look over the ground thoroughly and
decide just where he money of the
company is to be spent in the opening
up of the properties.
1t is reported that the mines of the
Big Cottonwood company are about as
worthy of attention as anything in the
CottonwoOds, and it is very evident
that the western people interested in
the company think so, for they are will
ling to put up considerable money for
development purposes. Work is to
commence in the very near future.

PURCHASED TINTIc MINES.
Ed. Loose Extends His Interests in
That District

Tintic Miner: Probably the most i'm
portant transfer made in Tintic this
spring was closed up yesterday by the
purchase by c. E. Loose of Henry
KohPs one-half interest in the King
William and Wedgewood group. This
property lies above the Mammoth and
is, we believe, justly regarded as one of
the most valuable in the district. We
are unable to state positively the con-
sideration, but understand 1t was
rather fancy price. 1t seems to us that
Ed is catching on strong in Tintic, as
he seems to be getting hold of the
cream of the open property. We are
extremely glad to see it for he is just
the kind of man we want to help
build UP the district TO what it should
be.
Work has recommended vigorously on
the Grand Central group. The double
compartment shaft with manway is
now down forty feet and two shifts are
putting it down with the greatest pos
sible rapidity. The owners propose to
make a mine of this property in short
order.
A big strike of high grade gold ore is
reported to have been made in the east
drift of the Ajax last Monday. The ore
is said to run 1912 ounces in gold to the
ton and there is lots of it in sight

WILL CHANGE DIVIDEND DAY.
Srercur Directors Decide or Dis

Mercur Directors Decide on a Dis
tribution of the Company's Works.
Tt has been decided by the members
of the board of directors of the Mercur
Gold Mining and Milling company that
a change is necessary in the date of
the dividend day. For some months
past it has been on the 10th of each
,mOnth, but hereafter it. Will come on
J either the 18th or the goth, The exact
date not having yet been fixed. This
change is deemed advisable for the
reason that the pay day at the mines
and mill is now the 10Th and it works
hardship on the executive officers of
the company to attend to the distribu-
tCn of such sums of money in one day
as have been necessary in the past It
IS the aim of the directors to distri-
butte the work more generally over the
month. the company will pay the reg
uiar $4,000 dividend during the com
ing month.

one of the incest deals ever negotl-
sted In the Camp Floyd district was
closed Cp last evening, when the Can
non Cold Mining and Milling company
leased and bonded the Hecla group Of
five claims to Francis Hall for the
sum OF $4,000. This group is located
north of the Golden Gate and is look
ed upon as being among the most Vaiu-
able in the district. While it is prac-
ticaIly undeveloped, the indications are
splendid and there seems TO be no
doubt in the minds of Mr.. Hall and the
gentlemen who are said to be aSsocl-
ated with him regarding the future OF
the property. The Hecla is one of the
several groups located by Angus NJ
Cannon and incorporated by him under
the name OF the Cannon Gold Mining
and Milling company, the capital
stock being placed at the extremely
low figure of $4,000. Commenting upon
this company and its possibilities a
well posted gentleman yesterday stat
ed that had any other man than An
gus NJ. Cannon been the owner OF the
properties held by the Cannon Gold
Mining and Milling company, there
would have been half a dozen compan-

sions Of the instrument which gives

Work is to commence on the first Of
the coming month and be prosecuted
on an extensive scale and in a system

executed at meeting of the board of
directors Of the company held last
evening.
President Cannon came in from the
mine on the evening train, having
spent the day in an eXamina ton Of
the foot of the shaft being sent down
on the Index. He brought in with him
several good sized pieces of ore which
is coming into the shaft and today as
says will be made. Already the shaft
has gone down into the ore for three
feet and experts who have examined
the property say there is no doubt in
the world but that the vein is there
also. The ore taken out isIa1most iden-
teal with that of the Mercur. except
that TO date no cinnabaT has made its
