Died.

BALLARD.-In River Falls, Wis,
Aug. s, 1896. d.. E. Ba Hard,
aged So years, of heart failure.
Returning homo from short trip
we are confronted with the sad and
unexpected news that DR.. Ballard has
passed away The brief time allowed
us prevents our giving such details as
might prove interesting to urreaders
con ernlng his early life, but for many
Yeas he has been fully identified with
the history of River Falls.
DR.. Ballard settled in this city
about thirty years ago aud has made
it his loved home during all he inter
vening time to the present. In matter
of advancing the interests OF his home
he has ever taken a prominent part
and this interest led to his election as
Mayor several years ago which posi-
ton he held with credit to himself and
benefit to the city until the present
wear, when he found it better to
partially cease from active public
life.
In 1895, it being apparent that a
new regent would be appointed by
the Governor, large petition was
sent tc Madison requesting the ap
pointment of DR.. Ballard. Reasons
which seemed sufficient to the GCv-
ernor delayed selection for this
locality until this year when the
Doctor was chosen and held the
position until his death. AS public
man he was eminently conservative.
He must be we'll assured of the pro
piiety of an at before sanctlOnlng 1t
by voice or vote, but once convinced
he was very active in carrying out
his idea. This made him an eminent
ly safe and practical city officer as no
project would be allowed to succeed
if in his power to prevent 1t unless he
felt sure that the ultimate good OF
the city would be subserved thereby.
In his medical practice he was kind
friend as well as successful doctor.
The same spirit of conservatism pro-
miuent in his public life was carried
into his business relations and henc
he was regarded as peculiarly safe
man.
For many years he was u consis-
tent member of the Congregational
church of this city and in the lat' Ell
years of his life conducted a bible
class in which he was very successful,
his lessons being very IN erestlng to
his class. He leaves surviving him
his wife and two CHI ldren, son, Ned
Ballard who resided with his parent,
and daughter, Lizzie, now the wife
of Wilbur HI. Cox Esq, of Paramount,
n d. The funeral was attended on
Tuesday by very large concourse oil
friends who gathered to pay their
last respt cts to the dead and sympa-
thize with the living. Rev. G. H
Ne Intosh, the pas or of the Congre-
sat onal church, conducted the fun
eral services.

j. X. Clark Tolls of the Richnsss of Dis
trirts He Has Visited.

-Shs VI tne 1tcn0eos OF DIS
tritts He Has Visited.
j. X. Clark, the well-known mining
operator of Butte, Mont, arrived In
Salt Lake Friday night from a visit to
the rich gold camp of De Lamar New,
which. he says, with the exception OF
the operations being carried on in the
De Lamar and April Fool properties, is
very quiet at the present time, says the
Salt Lake Herald. The De Lamar is GO
ing on at its usual gait, while the April
FOOL, owned by Frank Wilson and Will
Dooley. is breaking ground for its new
10-stamp combination mill.
Mr.. Clark visited the new Line dis
trict, In Western Iron county, on his re-
turn trip, and says that this new dis
covery promises to develop into a great
wealth producer, although but little
work has been done In the district as
yet.
The Line district is is miles north
west of the Desert springs and several
miles southwest of Milford The crop-
pings in the district are very large and
well defined and in some instances are
all OF 100 feet in width. On the Utah
Spur lode the vein carries small string
ers OF ore of from three to four inches
wide, that goes as high as 1000 and
5000 ounces in silver to the ton. besides
carrying from IS to s25 in gold. The
ore is a black sulphurette, and can be
easily treated. The Ophir mine shows
from three to four feet of ore on the
surface on the hanging walls, that av-
erages from 100 to 300 ounces in silver
ana also gives good returns in gold,
but, as the ledge has not been tested
by prosecuting. the extent of the ore
body has not as yet been fully tested
Mr.. Clark says that, in his opinion.
the formation is a fissure of porphyry.
which is one of the best mineralizations
known. and he believes that the depos-
Its are permanent
townsite has been laid out in a lit
tie valley below the Utah Spur mine,
and II is expected that in time, as the
district becomes more fully developed.
quite a camp will spring up there. The

TIM HARRINGTON IS DEAD
And the Administrator OF the Es-
tate Is Wonderlng-Davey and
the Diamond-Suit for d.
vorce-Court Business.

John Harrington Corpey, administra-
tor OF the estate of Timothy Harring-
ton Corpey. commenced proceedings in
the district court yesterday against A..
j. Davis. cashier OF the First National
bank, TO cite him into court to show
cause why he should not turn over to
the administrator $500 in cash on de-
posit in the bank and belonging to the
estate. The administrator alleges that
Timothy Harrington Corpey died on
the 18th of last December and that
prior to that time he had deposited in
the bank $500 in the name of Timothy
Harrington. and that Timothy Harring-
ton Corpey were one and the same per
son. The administrator says he made
demand on the bank for the money
but II was refused him. Affidavits
from Jerry j. Harrington and James
Lowney were also filed. In the affida-
Wits harrington and Lowney relate
that they had known Timothy Har-
rington Corpey well during his lifetime
and knew that while that was his
right name he was known usually as
Timothy Harrington and frequently
transacted business in that name.
Judge Mediation issued a citation and

that this action, If criminal at ALL was
