NEW PLACER CLAIMS.
I'he Urraca and ROnitO Districts
Creating Considerable stir in
Mining Circles.
special Correspondence New Mexican.

Special Correspondence New Mexican.
| Cimarron, N. M, Aug. 23.-The Urracs
and Bonita Mining districts are causing
no little stir in this part Of Colfax coun.
ty. The reports that have gone from
the camps in these districts have resulted
in large influx of miners, many of them
coming from adjoining districts.
New placer claims have been located
and are showing up in good shape. Gill.
land and ONeal have done considerable
prospecting in the mountains the past
few months and in their work turned up
a find that promises much. The strike is
an 1S foot vein that assays So in gold and
10 per cent copper at the surface. The
the claim will be pushed as fast as posi-
BILE, the operations to be continued all
winter.
DR.. Lottridge made discovery recent
ly of vein of unknown width, which as
says Sll to the ton in gold. The ore is
free milling porphyrytio quartz, and as it
is near the Urraca, in which there is an
abundance of water for power and milling
purposes, can be worked with little trou
BILE and comparatively no expense. For
several months the doctor has been try
ing to trace the source of the coarse gold
found in the Urraca, and seems to have
found it in the vein he has located.
Development work continues on the
older claims, shafts are going deeper into
the ground, tunnels are piercing further
under the mountains, and all the miners
in the camp are sanguine of success be-
fore the snow stops operations on the
higher levels.

A Peculiar Case.

The Elizabethtown Miner of last week
contains an account of the loss of speech
sustained by John Bedford of that place.
About three weeks ago Mr.. Bedford was
eating with friend and holding up his
end of the conversation in a pleasant
manner, when without any physical pain
or other indication of trouble he was
stricken dumb. Up to the present time
the trouble was considered temporary,
but three weeks having elapsed since the
stroke and no change for the better hav-
ing come he feels that the matter is SER
ious, and needs skilled medical attention.
Up to the time he lost his speech Mr..
Bedford stammered slightly, but not
enough to bother him in talking. The
only peculiar sensation accompanying
the afiiiotion is one that the throat is
larger. At times the feeling comes
that word could be spoken, but that
passes away when the effort is made
Mr.. Bedford accepts the situation IN a
philosophical manner, has learned to talk
on bis hands, and in short time expects
to 20 east for treatment. He is barber
and has put up notice in his shop
which reads: "This is the only place in
New Mexico where shave can be had
without danger of being talked to death"

LEADERS ENCOURAGED.
An Early Settlement of the strike Is
Expected by the strike Leaders.

Pittsburg, Pa, Aug. 27.-The miners
are encouraged today over the prospects
of an early settle ment of the strike. Eff
forts are being directed to the Pennsyl.
vania railway, and the central field oi
Pennsylvania. President Dolan address
ed meeting at Olaridge, estmoreland
county, last night and the men decided
to quit work. This loses two miues to
the Westmoreland Gas Coal company
President Dolan expects soon to have all
the mines idle.
Sheriff Lowry went to Buncia this
morning accompanied by deputies, and
ordered the strikers off the public roads.
An Injunction was served.
The first attempt to start any of the
coal mines, was made at the Cham pion
mines of Robbins & Co., near Mcdonald,
this morning. Two cars of foreigners
were put to work loading slack into the
cars. Five hundred women attack ed
them with stones and the foreigners fled
to Noblestown. The women then dumped
the slack that had been loaded. They
we're met by thousands of strikers and
headed by band marched short dis
tance from the mine, where they are now
encamred, watching for the return of
miners.

ALBUQUERQUE NOTES.

W. 0. Seoor, the civil engineer, will be
sent over the old survey line of the Albu
querque & Durango railroad, to pick up
missing data in the field notes. He will
start on the trip next week.
new counterfeit dollar has shown up
in this city that is much more dangerous
than the clumsy lead coins that were in
circulation short time ago. This dol
lar is to the eye an exact counterpart ot
the genuine dollar of our daddies, but is
somewhat light and has that slippery
feeling.
A reception was given in honor of Mr.
A. G. Wells and Mr.. J. W. Walker, presi-
dent and vice president of the CONNER
cial club, upon the eve of their departure
to Los Angeles. The affair was largely
attended and all expressed their regrets
at losing two such valuable citizens.
Mr.. James Lynch, father of Mrs.
George Carson, died at his daughter 3
home in this city on Wednesday evening,
Lynch has been living on ranch north
of He'll canon for several years, and was
we'll and favorably known. The remains
we're taken to Socorro this morning for
burial.
A. M. Bergere and wife came up from
Los Lunas Wednesday night in company
with the committee of the Society of
Friends. The committee were met at
the depot by F. H. Kent and j. E. Saint
of the Commercial club and were escorted
to rooms at the Highland. The party
consists of M. A. Wilson and wife and
Oliver Wilson and wife Of Magnolia, Ills,
Frank E. Smith and wife of Clear Greek,
Ills, John Cory and wife of Tama, Ia,
and Albert R. Griest of Balbec, Ind.
Yesterday the visitors we're shown over
the city, and the beauties of the valley
pointed out to them. This committee is
in New Mexico looking for lands upon
which to locate colony of Quakers, and
will visit all parts of the territory before
leaving for the east,
