THAT PENNANT.
1t Will Be Awarded to the High School
Football Team Next Week.

That football pennanG will be awarded
the Portland High School team on Fri
day, January 18th, and this is how it
happens:
A Portland gentleman was in Boston
Monday, and called upon Wright & Dit
son. The firm said they had been noti-
fed by President Woodbridge, of the
Maine Association, that the psnnant had
been won by Portland. They made the
pennant and had it properly lettered.
They have been advised by the sporting
editors of several Boston papers. and by
Mr.. Brooks of Harvard, that the pennant
should properly come to Portland.
They felt sorry that an agreement was
made to throw it back upon their hands.
Nevertheless, under the circumstances,
they did not see fit to award the pennant
on their own responsibility. The Port
land gentleman then asked aif they
would transfer the pennant to him with
the understanding that he should present
it to the Portland High School football
team, and they readily assented. He
brought the pennant home with him,
and now has it at his house, and will
present it to the team at their ball Fri
day, the 18th.

J. x. Libby's "Breakage Sale"

This house has an "a. B. c." story in an
other column of this paper, ON a price
breakage' in Ladies' Garments.
They spent New YEARS. day in taking &C
count of stock,
And finding fifty Ladies' Garments of the
vintage of early 1891, Mr. Libby decided to
make such price cut as shall scatter them,
as he says, like split quicksilver"
Our knowledge of Mr.. sLibhy's radical me-
thods in cutting prices con,inces US that
such an opportunity TO get good, stylish
Garment at nominal price, doesn't often
come to our peonle.
The prfce-cut not only strikes Garments
but Dress Goods as well.

The centre counter, first floor. has been
turned into Dress Goods Bargain Counter,

Mr. Libby says Spring goods are even now
knocking loudly at his doors. His import

house, and will soon be here.

THRUST UPON HIM.
A Farmer Growing Wealthy from Farm
He Triep Hard Not to Accept.

Hiram Tewksbury, farmer east "of
Montpelier, Ind, seems to have gotten
rich in spite of himself.
When the Petty Bros, representing the
Standard Oil Co., were near Montpelier
leasing oil territory, Mr.. Tewksbury. be-
ing we'll know was secured by them to
assist in leasing farms. The Howard
farm. of 100 acres, was for sale, but they
would not lease it. The Pettys prevailed
upon Mr.. TewksDury to buy it, telling
him tnat they would take it Oft his
hands, presumably at fair advance over
the price, $50 per acre.
He bargained for the land, but the
Pettys could not raise the money, or at
least did not, and he made an effort to
prevent taking it, as he already owned
more land than he wanted at this time.
The Howard heirs insisted, brought suit
for the fulfillment of contract, and won
the case. Today the farm SO forced
upon him yields revenue of over 500
per day from the great amount of oil 1T
is producing. AS result. the old gen
tleman has already.got the. money back
he paid for the land, and the oil still
flows as strong as ever.
Tewksbury promises to soon be the
richest man in Eastern Indiana, as re-
suit of having something forced upon
him which he did not want.

ing February. 1t was expected that ar
engagements could be made for Pullman

Gardiner, chairman of TIE executive COM
mittee. saying that Gardner would be u n
able to take care of the convention this
year, as the terms asked by the Pullman
Company could not be met. and further
saying that only three cities in Maine were

Already the Siskiyou God Develop
ment company is branching out in
very earnest, its latest turn being the
purchase of the King, one of the most
valuable claims in the group of gold
properties now held by the principal
stockholders Of the AIercur Gold Mining
and Milling company and the Siskiyou,
located in Siskiyou county, Cal. The
King is on the extension of the Noun
tain Lion and Ohio, the two properties
recently purchased by the Mercur peo-
pie and this gives the Siskiyou COM
pany $500 feet directly OH the vein.
The news of the purchase was yester-
day received at the offices of the com
pany in this city from D. P. Tarpey,
one OF the incorporates, who for some
time past has been in California ne
gotiating for the property. Immediately
upon the receipt of the news, for which
he had been waiting for some days,
Captain Middlen1iss packed his grip and
took the afternoon train for Chicago,
where he will work in the interest of
the company for some time to come.
These mines are situated within about
four miles from the Southern Pacific
railway station at Hornbrool1. and
about three hundred yards from the
klamath river in the Cottonwood min
ing district, in Siskiyou county, Cal
fornia. They comprise three full claims,
1850 feet each in length, making q
total length of 1900 feet on the great
gold bet, by 900 feet in width.
The claims were located in December,
1898, and after running two tunnels and
making several open cuts upon the
vein TO determine it's continuity, no
further work was done, as they were
Immediately bonded TO the representa-
tive of the present owner, by whom

can be freighted into that country. On
account OF the heavy snow fall this
winter, it would be about impossible
to haul heavy loads TO the mines, but
light supplies can be conveyed to the
mines at any season of the year.

defined walls and varying in width
from thirtytWo to si1ty-eight feet from

decomposed gold bearing quartz on the
surface and continuing for a depth of
about twenty-five feet, when the ore
gives place to a harder character Of
quartz of greater value. The value of
the ore from the surface tunnels and
open cuts, is shown by mill tests, to
run from 50 to S13.25 per ton, in quaint
ties from fifteen to twenty tons for
each Of the three separate tests from
this same vein.

Third Company Organized For the
New District.

New District.
Another company has been organized
for the purpose of working the recently
opened gold properties at the mouth of
Little Cottonwood canyon and on Mon
day it will in2ugurate extensive opera
tons. II is known as the Cottonwood
Gold Mining and. Milling company, and
is capitalized for $1,000, 900, the incorpo-
rators being Jacob Moritz, George f.
Dalton, David WaIlerstein, NJ II. Lip
man, w. J. Wolstenholme and Harry
Edwards. The properties owned by the
company are the Elk and others, To-
Gated on the extension of the Gold Hill
and the other claims of the New State
Gold Mining and Milling company
This makes three regularly incorpo-
rated companies which have properties
in the new sold district, the New State,
Gold Dollar and the Cottonwood. All
three have the very brightest of pros
poets and their members feel confident
that they have some big things within
their grasp. 1t will require some de-
velopment to secure them, however.

SALT LAKE ATHLETIC CLUB.
Opening Reception Last Evening an

If anybody doubted that Salt Lake city
would give generous and hearty support
to an athletic club established on the
principle and conducted on lines exclud-
ing from it the Objectionable element
which too frequently accompanies insti-
buttons of the kind, the reception given

ted up in the Alta building on Vest Sec
ond South street, with all the appliances
necessary to a firSt-claSs gymnasium.

genuineneSS would be SuperhuOu.S. Pro-
fessoT ChriStol is a noted athletic in
structor and under his training many of
those who nave attained fame in the, diff
ferent branches of athletic sports have
received their education.
At the opening last evening seventy
nine gentlemen were enrolled as mem
bers. An inspection of the rooms, which
are large and commOdIous, and a trial or
the apparatus for developing physical
manhood. an exhibition OF fencing, box
ing, wrestling etc, by instructor Chris
toll. were the principal attractions, wAich
entertained the large assembly.
The Mandolin and Guitar club fur
nished music, and light refreshments
were served during the evening. The

Bids Soon to BE Requested on the
New Sioux Plant.
Plans and Specifications are being
prepared for the new mill Of the Sioux
Consolidated Mining and Milling COM
pany, and it is anticipated that within
the next few days bids on the plant
will be requested. 1t is to be a 20
stamp concentrator, but so arranged
that 20 more drops may be added at
amy time The general plan is much
the same as that of the Mammoth
Mining company, near which it is TO be
situated.
Some time ago the board of directors
of the company authorized General
Manager Robinson to proceed with the
construction of the plant, which is
provided for in the agreement drawn
up at the time of the recent sale of the
majority of the capital stock to MI.
Robinson and his friends. The COM
p3ny made q contract with the Nam
moth people for d sufficient water sup
ply to operate the mill, and the mains
of the new Cherry creek system are to
be tapped at a point a short distance
from the Mammoth milf, where the
new plant is to be erected. Manager
Robinson has placed a, small force OF
men at work in the Sioux property
and is doing some development work,
getting the mines into proper shape
for extensive operations.

MAY MEAN a SETTLEMENT.
Copper Plant Sale advertisement
Has Been withdrawn.

The continuance of the hearing in the
copper plant case for three weeks,
under an agreement between al in
terested parties, carried with it the
withdrawal of the advertisement of t'ht
sale under the foreclosure of the deed
OF trust held by Trustee Hanauer and
there seems to be a possibility of its
never being again inserted. Negotia-
tons are known to he on between the
parties most interested in the settle
ment of the affairs of the Salt Lake
City Copper Manufacturing company,
looking to a very general compromise,
through the payment of the valid claims
against the company, including those
held by Mr. Singer Mrs. Harriet Green
and others. While no positive an
nouncement has been made, it is re-
ported that Mr.. Harrison will furnish
the greater portion of the sinews Of
war, having in view the completion OF
the works and their operation as
copper and general sme-ter. The gen
tleman is here in the city, accompanied
by his attorney, Judge Van Valkenberg,
and many consultations have been he'd
The attorney is now looking up the
titles Of the property and should every
thing prove satisfactory Mr.. Harrison
will probably make some additional in
vestments. He is already the owner of

SITUATION IN FLOUR CIRCLES.
Resident Agent Green, OF the lay
ton Mills, Talks

Resident Agent Green, of the Lay
ton Mills, Talks
While admitting that there has been
i decline in the price Of high patent
-four within the past few days. and
rathersdnferring that there may be
still further change, Resident Agent
Green, of the Layton Milling and Ele-
vaJtor company, takes the position that
there will be no flour war. giving as
his reasons for his belief that the mill
lers will not cut each others threats,
and the present low price of all bread
stuffs, nearly all of the quotations be-
ing within a very few cents Of the
price of production. The gentleman
gives the prices of the three chief
grades of flour to- the retailer as fol-
lows: High patent, $3.50; straight
grade, $40; bakers No. 1, $1.25; all
.ess. cents per hundred in carload
lots.
The present Indications are that
flour is at a standstill," said Mr.. Green
yesterday afternoon, cor, ait least, at
q Standstill as far as the millers are
concerned, and it seems hardly likely
that there will be any further decline
in that staple. In view Of the scarcity

that wheat viii so any lower. Very
recently bran, shorts and oats have
advanced 10 cents per hundred. The
demand for bran is so great that the
local mills cannot keep up with their
orders.
1T seems to me that this is the
wrong time of the year for a -four war,
for the reason that nearly all of the
wheat crop is in the hands of the grain
| jobbers and consequently mil8rs are
| unable to buy the wheat at their own
prices, and are therefore not in a posi-
| ton to sell flour below the present cost
of production. Taking the price OF
| bakers No. l at $1.25 and wheat at 40
| cents per bushel, anyone who can fig
ure must see that the mixers are al
! ready playing a losing game
Notwithstanding Mr.. Green's Dredic-
tons that there viii be no further cut
| in the price of the three chief grades
| of flour on the local market. it was
| yesterday announced that one of the
| heavy institutions at the south end Of
! Main street and another at the north
$1.65 to the consumers. This flour is
! said TO have come from the Cache VAL
| ley mills, two carloads having been re-
| ceived in this city yesterday. If the
| millers are not cutting the price and
| delivering it to the retailers at better
rates than heretofore, then the dealers
| are making the cuts on their own ac-
| count. for certain it is that there has
| been a, decided change in favor of the
| consumers.
