Gold is Found All Over the Laramie

prospecting for the past month in the
Medicine Bow region, about thirty-five
miles west of Laramie. Mr.. Bonser.
who has just returned from the trip
stated to a Sun-Leader reporter that
he was greatly pleased with the results
OF his trip, and was surprised at the
extent Of the gold bearing placer
ground in that locality They found
coloTs along the foot of the hills for
twenty-five miles, with gold in SUI
hcient quantity to pay even with
sluice boxes. while an hydraulic propo-
sltion would be an assured success
Br. Bonses says gold is found all
over the Laramie plains where there is
sand or gravel. Most of it is fine gold
but it can be caught with a common
rocker There are also good paying 10
calities where the ground can be
sluiced. The trouble is, so few under
stand placer mining or the extent of
the placer deposits in this section.
Mr.. Bonser and his party viii return
and carry on their mining operations
for the season. as he thinks he has a
good paying proposition.

preceding week. Monday the receipts
were 6,oo1 cattle, about two-thirds OF
which were in the quarantine yards. The
market opened slow and dull, ana values
declined from D TO 10 cents per cWt on
every thing except fat cows, which were
Darcy steady. Tuesdays supply was
6,4Ij cattle and the run consisted mainly
OF natlVe steers, which were again lower.

an advance: The market today is steady
with receipts of $500 cattle The market
has reSained the decline OF the first three
days of the week and closes firm. The de-
mand for good feeding steers of good
quality IS strong, while common stuff is
neglected and hard TO sell.
Receipts of hogs for the week are 49,,
GS3 against 470S5 the preceding one. The
market opened up first of the week
strong and active, with values about 10
to 10 cents higher than previous weeks
close, ana bulk sold at $3.10 TO $3.50, with
sorted top lights az $751; but yester-
day and today there was a strong slump
in prices and the market closes 10 to 20
cents lower than opening of the week and
to 10 cents lower than preceding weeks
close, with bulk at So TO $40: top on
sorted lights 1925.
Receipts of sheep for the week were
only 1924, which is the lghtest weeks
business OF the year, and prices are 20 to
30 cents higher than last weeks close.
Should we have liberal receipts we antici-
pate a decline in prices.

Hut BASEBALL GAME.
PARK GIANTS DOWN THE FORT
DOUGLAS TEAM.
A Wild Throw BY the Soldiers in the
Sixth Gave the Miners n Lead
Which They HeId-Score Was
Eleven to Four.

Without doubt the best ball game
of the season in this state-not excepting
that phenomenal game between the Alta
and University clubs-came off at Park
City yesterday before most of the in
habitants of the camp.
1t was between the Sixteenth infantry
team of Fort Douglas and the Park City
team, the latter being victorious with a
score of II TO 4.
The game was clean and pretty
throughout, and it would be hard to find
a squarer man than Southy, who umpired
the game. Up 10 the sixth inning the
score stood p, and in the last part of
the sixth Ward threw a wild, wild ball,
| letting in three Park City men and vir-
tua1y losing the game.
The soldiers We're treated in splendid
style by their pleasant rivals, and they
put up an admirable game, thoroughly
gentlemanly IN every respect.
quite crowd went up from the city
to cheer the boys in blue and in conse-
Cuence abou! nifty dollars even money
changed hands.
Al the conclusion of the game the Salt
Lake people, mostly Fort Douglas officers,
gave nine rams for the Park team, and
the good natured crowd returned the
compliment. There was a great deal of
liberal enthusiasm displayed, the Park
people yelling with the Salt Lakers when
the Sixteenth made brilliant play. Per-
haps the prettiest play of me day was
the catch of Fatty Connolly, when he
ran clear to the side lines and caught a
very difficult ball.
Higson of the Park is wonderful
pitcher, seeming to have perfect control
of the ball. The batteries on both sides
were very good, and the way goose eggs
were flying around up to the sixth was
a caution.
