How Mr.. De Lamar was Discovered.

Harry W!ay, the weli-Known pros.
lated II good story of how he discov,
cred DeLamar, the millionaire mine
owner. Mr.. DeLamar came to old
Wagontown, representing an improved
free gold cOncentratOr and set up a
mill. He made contracts with miners
to pay ninety-tive per cent of the assay
value of the ore, less the price of mil
ling. He was not very successful in
milling upon those terms. Harry
Wray had lease upon the ledge that
made.DeLanar IA millionaire and deliv-
cred twenty-five tons of ore to the mill.
The grade of the ore was too low to pay
freight with the other expenses. In
the meantime Harry had developed
IA fine ledge. There were representa-
tives of capitalists i'm the camp, but
Harry had sympathy for the mill-own-
er and decided to disclose to him his
ideas md discoveries. Mr.. DeLamar
came and looked over the ground, dis
cussed the dip, the walls and the
width of the pay streak. He finally
decided to purchase the mine. The
price was 5000. Harry had no
honey, and his friend was Gin the
same boat But DeLanar made the
contract to pay the price within a
stated time. He succeeded in inter
esting Wall Bros, of Chicago, in the
property and they advanced him the
money. Mr.. Dei.amar begun work in
dead earnest. lie moved his mill up
on the property and within three
months cleaned up $24O, 900. Mr.. De-
Lamar did not reward Harry for his
tip. He even failed to pay him $3.50,
the contract price for some prospect
work t" determine question which
was in doubt before the deal was
closed.

An audacious burglary and robbery
was effected yesterday afternoon be-

men, who opened window in the res
idence of Chas. Rafoth, at the corner
of Labor and Sadie streets during the
absence of the family, and thoroughly
ransacked the whole interior, stealing
silverware, revolver, some jewelry
and other valuables amounting to
about $240.
The men took Macintosh belong
ing to Mr.. Rafoth's son and putting
their booty in this made good their
escape, walking until they struck the
Southern Pacific railway track down
which they passed swiftly until they
reached the cover Of the underbrush.
They were seen by boy who was
passing, who recalled the circumstance
when he learned Of Mr.. Rafoth's loss.
Some few days ago similar rob
berry was effected in the day time at
the residence Of Mr.. Chas. Schiebel,
on South Heights. Here the thieves
