Charles Reder returned on Monday
from the now famous Ragged Top gold
camp, where he spent a few days in
ves,igating its merits. Mr.. Reder was
most favorably impressed with the
present status Of the camp and with its
future possibilities. He purchased two
of the most desirable lots in the new
town Of Balmoral, for which he paid
1926 each. and will at once proceed with
the erection Of suitable business build
ings thereon. He left for Hill City on
Tuesday, where he has two commodi-
Gus frame buildings, a hotel and barn,
which he proposed to tear down and
ship the lumber to Balmorai to be used
in the construction OF his buildings
there. Mr.. Reder is nothing If not en-
terprising. and his success in the new
camp goes without saying. The best
wishes Of bis Numerous friends will
follow him.

The rich gold discoveries made in the
limestone formation at Ragged Top have
had a tendency TO materially strengthen
the belief which has long been enter
tanned 10y the miners of this section,
that what is known as the limestone
range west of this place contains vast
quantities of valuable ores, and there is
considerable interest now being mani
tested on the part Of many OF them to
determine the question by exploitation.
The formation and float rock picked up
in that region being said to be identical
with that of Ragged Top, would seem to
justify an investigation, and we hope
that some one may have the nerve to
go ont there some of these fine days and
dig to the discovery point of a fortune
that will be ample to float him upon the
sea Of fortune during the balance Of his
life. Who will be the lucky man2

Free for All Scrap.

A lively free-for-sll fight be-
tween a crowd OF negro and white
boys took place in front Of the
Menger hotel last night about IL
o'clock, which resulted in some of
the participants being very BAG ly
bruised up.
The cause OF the fight was that
several OF the white boys began
"guying" the negroes about Nc
Kinley and the negroes in return
"guys d" the white boys about Bry-
an, all good naturally at first, but
finally it became too warm, when
one of the negroes struck Frank
Richards, one of the white boys, in
the stomach. Rooard's and the
other boys then ran the negro away
when friend OF the negro took his
part.
This was a signal for general
mix-up aud whites and negroes
were soon making the air thick
with flying stones and sticks
During the fray Frank Robards
was struck on the head with a
stone which rendered him uncon-
scious. He was taken to the Bexar
livery stable office where he was
revived and sent home. Another
one Of the white boys had his wrist
injured in the fray.
The affair was terminated by
someone in the crowd firing pis-
tol In the air several times to at
tract the police, but before Officers
Connel and Parker arrived the me-
groes had taken to their heels and
no arrests were made.

An Eyentful Dav.

President Weiss, Of the San An.
tonic Street railway, has doubly
reason to rejoice today. Besides
having a number of election bets
coming to him, he is the possessor
of fine artesian well, which was
born with McKinley's election. A
force of men had been at work the
past six weeks drilling an artesian
we'll in the rear Of the Tenth street
power house, and yesterday at
noon a fine flow of water was
struck at a depth of $40 feet. The
water rises four feet out of the
well, but the drill has been sent
deeper for a better flow.
