George Croker of San Francisco, son Of
Charles Croker. deceased millionaire,
has won $5OoOoO. by five-year career OF
sobriety. Under the agreement, made be-
fore the death of Charles Crocker, it was
provided that If at any time within hf-
teen years George Crocker had been sober
for a period of five years the trust proper
ty should become his. Charles
Crocker died in 1Sss, but George
did not start his career OF So
briefly until Sept. %. 1891. The five
years expired on Sept % 1896. and on that
day he demanded the money and will Sc
cure it when an order Of court has been
given. Such a promise would be sufficient
to tempt the most confirmed inebriate to
take the Kelley cure. and then spend the
balance Of the time in Jail to be on the
safe side.

There appears 70 have been as much
trouble stirred up over the Brunswick tug
Dauntless as over about all Of the other
nlibustering craft put together The lat
est development appears to be some issue
between the United States authorities at
Savannah and Brunswick. It should.
however. be settled at once and amicably.
There is no use in stirring up any per-
sonal antagonisms over so small matter
as a little fiilbustering expedition TO Cuba.

Not much rain or snow from this

Great Central valleys the 1st., and

E.meralda Mnrdsr Captured.

A dispatch from Prescott, Arizona
says that James Z. Boone, wanted in
Esmeralda county, Nevada, to answer
the charge of murder for killing An
tone Bacoch, November go, 1896, and
for whom there are rewards cf $3.50,
was arrested Thursday evening by
Sheriff Ruffnoy of Yavapai county.
Ruffney left yesterday afternoon for
Nevada to deliver him to the Sheriff
of Esmeralda county. Boone has
been employed about month as a
teamster in freighting between Riden
mine and Peach Springs, on the At
lantic Pacific railroad. He always
carried loaded Winchester on the
wagon convenient to him, and but for
ruse adopted by the sheriff to get
him away from the wagon, he would
no doubt have made fight, AS it
was, he was very reluctant about
obeying the orders of the sheriff to
throw up his hands. He is very de-
termined and desperate looking man.

THE CHAIRMAN STRICTLY IN 1T.
KsnnAeMse bodies of high grade ore
Gsvel0 ped I'm tho last few months


E,mmcmse bodies of high grade ore
developed In tho last few months.
The latest developments in the
Chairman mine have uncovered one
of the largest as well as richest bodies
of ore that has, SO far, been encounter

orc body to average over Is feet in
width being 20 feet at the bottom and
increasing rapidly as it goes down.
The vein strikes to the south west.
running lengthwise the claim, dipping
at an angle of about 40 degrees and
has been drifted on for over 100 feet.
Competent mining men pronounce
it the finest kind of concentrating ore,
being about go per cent free, the re-
mainder in sulphide of lead and av-
eraging from $50 to $40 per ton. It
is in porphyry formation with the
foot and hanging walls clearly defined.
This new strike together with other
developments made during the last
three months have placed the merits
of the chairman mine beyond ques-
ton, showing that the amount of ore
il almost unlimited, and greatly en-
hances the value of the property.

The Salt Lake Tribune says that
the new machinery for the DeLamar.
New, mill will increase the output of
the mines by over 200 tons daily. At
present the output is sixty-fivc tons.
With the additions that are being made
to the mill, it can be made to reach 800
tons. The ore is of g peculiar char
acter, requiring fine pulverizing for
successful treatment. After num-
Der of experiments two Griffin mills
were put in and after two months
trial we're proven a success. Ten
more were ordered by Mr.. Cohen dur
ing his recent visit to Boston from
the Brad sy Pulverizing Company.
The capacity of each is twenty five
tons. The mills are comparatively
light, weighing 5000 pounds each.
Three rock crushers were also order
cd by Mr.. Cohen. A single piece of one
weighing twenty tons, will prove a
much more difficult affair during trans
portation over the no miles between
Milford and DeLamar than the Griffin
mills.
The company has recently put in a
300-horse power boiler and engine, 81
that only the grinding apparatus, just
ordege ed. was needed to complete the
mill Though the mill capacity will
be over four times what it has been in
the past it is thought that but few adj
ditional men will be required for the
operation of the mine, as during the
past two and q half years immense
bodies of ore have been blocked out
that are practically untouched.
Mr.. Cohen evidently believes that
DeLamar will not much longer be
without railroad facilities, The Rio
Grands Western only few days ago
commenced extending it's line to
Marysvale, but the real objective
point, he said, but declined to speak
further on the subject.
