they have done development work late
~ but are now taking out ore, of which
they have a fine body to work on.-Key-
stone, Ketchum, Idaho.
In order to show that the fellows who
know it ALL sometimes get left it is
stated that the leasers on the famous
Bonanza mine at Harqua Hala, Ariz.,
have just uncovered at 200 feet a new
body of ore hitherto unsupported. 1t is
continuous, is four feet in width and
runs $50 a ton The mine has been con-
sidered worked out by It's owners, who
two years ago paid 100000 for the prop
erty.

THEY MAY BE FAMOUS.

The following bit Of good advice cut
from an old newspaper, is so full of
wisdom that I insert it here for the
benefit OF those parents who are so
foolish as to regret that their children
must grow up in the country: Don't
worry, fathers and mothers that live
remote from the cities, because your
children haven't the advantages Of
society and schools that the children
in these places have. We have been
looking back over years of the history
of this nation of ours, and we find that
a large number of the greatest men
and women that history hands down
to US were made from the children of
homes that had not half the opportu-
mites that the children of the farmers
of this day have. It is not the girl and
boy that reach manhood and woman
hood in the most ease and luxury that
we expect to hear of achieving great
things but it is the sturdy country boy
and girl that have come through hard
ships that are the most apt to make
famous men and women.

WHEEL NOTES.

The Young Mems Christian associa-
given over the Garfield course Tuesday,
August Is. Twenty-six entries have
been made already and as many more
are expected. Among the entries al
ready received are one man who
weighs 100 pounds and another who
weighs 200 pounds. Whether these
men will get limit and scratch respec-
lively has not yet been decided by the
handicappers Several of the crack
riders are in and the others expect to
be, but of the twenty-siX now entered
twenty have never participated in a
race before. The observation will leave
this city at 5:45 pm. and will be run
in two sections if necessary. AS a
safeguard, timers will be stationed at
the other end, but the Union Pacific
people have agreed to keep the riders
in sight all the way and beat them at
the finish.
Perhaps the prettiest piece of handi-
Gaping ever done in a road race was
that of the Midsummer Carnival race,
and the same committee, Messrs. Con-
ley, Sharp and Cross, will act this time.
The prize list includes hammerless
shotgun, several watches, bicycle suits
and SundrieS.
Since bicycling has taken such a hold
of the people, even the festive wizard
is using it in plying his craft. Eliason,
in one of his new illusions, presents a
wonderful scene in which Mrs. Ella
son rides a bicycle through mid air on
a white satin ribbon. By those who
have seen it the feat is pronounced a
marvellous one. 1t will be given to the
public in this city before Eliason opens
his regular season.
The young men of the Baptist
church gave a seven-mile road race
over the Pennington course Friday.
There were ten men started, but only
seven finished. Time, place and handi-
cap are given below. AS usual dark
horse" with big handicap won first
time and place.

The Georgia Mine.

A fine body of ore of good grade has
been opened in the Georgia shaft, which
was recently started in the big surface
Star wagon road, says the Rossland Min
err The ore looks much like that usually
found on the surface of lodges in this
camp. 1t is much oXidized and in the
lower part of the shaft, which is seven or
eight feet deep, is much mixed with
quartz. Some of the assays are reg orted
to be very high. No walls are yet in sight
running, though it no doubt has the usual
course. So far as can be seen now it is
simply a great mass of ore without any
we'll defined limits.
The strike is a very important one for
the Georgia as we'll as for the whole camp
The tunnel started down the hill some
time ago has been driven to within $50
fee9 OF the shaft now being sunk, and as
1t is being driven with g. steam drill it

go down in the vicinity. The cut would be
made at a depth of about 100 feet and

be in pretty good shape OF course every
thing now depends on the continuation of
smart. 1t fs too early to speak definitely as
to It's permanency, a S no walls are in sight.
however this may be, there is an entire
bottom and the four sides of the shaft
are in solid ore. Several tons have al
ready been taken out and the dump is as

Fatal Accident at Butte.

William Burke, a miner employed in
the Rarus mine. at Butte, Mont, was
killed Friday morning by a rock falling
on him. Burke was employed on the
sill floor Of the west 45O-foot level of the
Rarus, with a man named Peter Ward.
Inc Two men were engaged in cutting
out ground for a half set when a slide
of rock occurred. Burke was up close
TO the face of the workings and his
partner stood few feet behind him. The
cave occurred without an instant's
warning. One rock weighing nearly 100
pounds struck Burke squarely on the
top OF the head, fracturing his skull In
horrible manner. Another rock
weighing about 200 pounds fell on his
body, but it was the blow on the skull
that produced death.
second fatal accident occurred in the
Rose mine in the afternoon of the same
day when William Robinson. a we'll
known miner met his death by falling
from the cross-bead to the bottom of the
shaft, distance of 20 or % feet The
Rose mine is being operated by Messrs
Graham, Reynolds & Hudson. James A.
Graham is the superintendent of the
mine. Robinson was working with two
brothers at the 250-foot level The cross
head was sticking to the guides in the
shaft during the early part of the day,
and shortly after the noon hour Robin
son went up on the cross head to in
vestigate the trouble. Just what hap
pened after that the miners below are
unable to state. All they know is that
Robinson's body came tumbling down
the shaft into the stump.

GOLD HILL MINES.

Their Properties

The Boston People VIII Develop
Their Properties.
y dispatch from Saratoga, Wyo., to the
Denver News says that Col. Van Horn, the
mining man who accompanied j. A. Will
Der, a Boston capitalist, to the Gold Hill
mines, has returned TO Saratoga. Mr.. Will
Der expresses himself as being much
pleased with the camp and will at once
put men to work to thoroughly develop
the properties. This means that several
thousand dollars will be expended in the
camp and that Saratoga VIII have another
and this time a stable boom. The Boston
and Wyoming Mining, Milling and Trans
portation Co. will begin at once or their
properties in the camp, so that lively
times are in store for the Upper Platte
district. Mr.. Coughlin, of the Boston and
Wyoming company, who was here and in
spected the camp a, few weeks ago, re-
turned by way of the Black Hills, S. D.,
and writes that he saw nothing there that
could compare with Gold Hill, Wyoming.
The pluck and perseverance of the four
men who stood by the camp with ridicule
for encouragement, is now about to result
in prosperity for the valley, and the por-
ton of these few men will not be the
least. Such is life. Messrs. Wilder and
Van Horn go to Brush Creek tomorrow
to look over the proposed smelter site.

Extensive Developments Going on
in the Old Kalamazoo.
When Margetts, Peters and party were
in American Fork canyon this week, says
the American Fork World, and inspected
the workings of the mines, they found two
shifts working regularly at the Kalama-
zoo. The labor being carried on is prin-
clpally that of development work. The
kalamazoo miners have left the old work.
lnSS ana are now running in southwest
cry direction through new ground, leav-
ing the old Sweeny works to the north ana
thereby cutting off about 400 feet of them
AR. Pearson, who saw the working of
MI Sweeny in 1873, is confident of striking
the original body of ore by taking this
new southwestern course. This mine pro-
duced In 1890 and 1891 two carloads of float
averaging 81 ounces in silver and 70 per
cent lead. The object now is to find the
vein from which the float came. The pres
ent owners, viz, Margetts Bros, John
Peters John G. Cutter and the heirs of w.
II. Brown estate, have every confidence
that Mr.. Pearson is doing all in his power
to find the original discovery of Mr.
Sweeny, while at the same time Rhodes,
Hardness and Jones are watching matters
closely and are also sure of success. Mr..
Margetts is a veteran resident and is in
terested only in the development of Utah,

hundreds of dollars for the development

The war at Sandy over the inter
ment of the body of wife murderer
Thiede in the cemetery of that city
was waged with fury up TO yesterday
afternoon, when Mr.. and Mrs.
Schmidt, the brother-in-law and sister
of Thtede, who caused the remains to
be laid away in their burying place,
capdtulated and consented to allow
the body to be exhumed and rein
TERED in a field near the cemetery.
All through Friday night, the night
following the execution, Mr.. anr Mrs.
SCHMIDT watched the grave to pre-
vent the enraged people from taking
up the body, and Saturday and SaJtur-
DAY night the grave was also watched
to prevent its being disturbed, not
withsGanding which report got
abroad and was believed by Thiede's
relatives yesterday morning that the
citizens had accomplished their pur-
pose and removed the body. The
Schinidts sent Tor Undertaken Joseph
William Taylor in the afternoon and
in order 10 satisfy themselves that the
remains were still there the grave
was opened under the supervision of
Mr.. Taylor, when it was found that
the casket and contents were undis-
turbed.
The ecclesiastical board which con-
trolls the cemetery, and without the
knowledge and consent of which the
body was inferred used great effort to
induce the Schmidts to consent to the
remains being removed, and finally
persuaded them to sign an agreement
to permit the body to be exhurned
and reinserred in some spot outside of
the cemetery grounds.
SECRECY PRESERVED.
This Arrangement it appears was
come TO on Saturday, and the inten-
ton was to make the transfer on
Saturday night without anybody but
those directly interested knowing
where the new place of burial was to
be. The grounds surrounding the
cemetery are private property, and it
was feared that the owners might
being laid in their land, so it was re-
solved to keep his last resting
place a secret. Mr.. and Mrs. Schmidt
selected the spot and designated it to
those who came to do the work The
arrangements, however, could not be
perfected in time to get the job done
ON Saturday night and it was post
poned until last night, when it was
done at the expense of the ecclesias-
tca1 board.
AS suitable time for the CHASTITY
work, the hour of midnight, when
churchsards yawn and the sheeted
dead do squeak and gibber in the
streets, was chosen, and the mortal
remains of the man who stained his
hands with blood were taken up by
the grave diggers and secretly con-
veyed away from the city of the dead.
The spot chosen for the reinterment
could not, however, be hidden, and
the eight or ten men employed to do
the disagreeable job carried the coffin
just beyond the southeast corner Of
the cemetery, and there at a point
which according to survey is a public
street of the city of Sandy, and in
what would be the sidewalk were the
streets paved and graded, the grave
was made and the body consigned to
this less sacred spot of mother earth

CONSTANT DEMAND FOR EGGS.

When you take a dozen eggs off the
farm and sell them, you only sell one
eighth of a cents worth of fertility; the
rest of it is left, and you have your
money. too. a we'll known poultryman
says that he would not advise any man
to go into the business unless ne has
satisfied himself that there is money in
it. To his mind there are two or three
facts which go to show that there will
always be a demand for eggs. One is,
that brain workers in the city are becom-
ing more particular and harder to suit.
When the country was first being settled
and people were doing lots of hard work
they were not particular what kind Of
food they got, so long as they got enough.
Then there is another class of people who
will buy eggs. and that is the poor peo-
pie; the supply of fish is falling off year
after year, and eggs are taking their
place. On top of that. candymakers are
now asking for the highest priced eggs
for making candy, so he thinks there
will be a good demand for eggs of the
right quality.

How Some Were Acquired by
the Early Settlers.
STATEMENT OF LEWIS REEFS.
Difficulties Encountered by Foreigners in
Retaining Their Holdings Before the Mis-
sionaries Came Here Sharp Practices
Among Old Chiefs They Gave Away Land.

About two months since there was
published in this paper statement by
the late Captain Adams on the subject
of land in Hawaii and how it was
acquired by the early settlers. The
article was interesting to many of the
residents of Honolulu who were living
here back in the forties when it be-
came necessary for people holding land,
over which there was dispute, to
come forward and prove property.
The following statement made by
Lewis Rees in 1S4S carries with it the
same interest as did that of Captain
Adams and will no doubt find a place
in the scrap books of many citizens:
DECLARATION OF LEWIS REES.
On the 9th day of April, in the year
of our Lord one thousand eight hun
dred and forty-eight, before me, VIM
Miller, Esq, H. B. MS Consul General
at Honolulu, personally appeared Lewis
Rees, a native of Townine in Merton
ethshire, Wales, now residing at Homo
lulu. and voluntarily made the follow
ing and sincere declaration:
That after completing my appren-
ticeship on board a coasting vessel be-
longing to yarmouth, l was in 1874,
pressed into the British Navy, in which
| served eight years, principally on
board the Frigate Success" in the
Mediterranean, having been II the
blockade of Malta, and several other
affairs. l was paid of at Portsmouth
