looking float out on the hills near Blue
creek He had it assayed and it showed
slips gold with some silver and trace of
copper. Prospecting the place later, he
discovered a well-defined ledge, which
he has located He thinks little de-
velopment work will bring to surface
ore that will be worth looking after
The Century mine is located about
nine miles northwest of Rosette. in
Park valley, this county. The men
now have a tunnel over 100 feet in
length. The object is to cross-cut the
hill and run a tunnel clear through it.
By this means they hope to get suf-
ficicnt ore in sight to warrant the
building of a mill on the spot. Assays
have proven that there is rich ore in
the hill. They run as high as $50 to
the ton, mostly gold. This is one of the
best prospects in the county

Douglass Mountain Notes.

Vernal Express: r. S. Collett. S. D
Cotton. Robert Reynolds, Judge Bahen,
Lorenzo Hatch and family and several
others are in from Douglass Mountain
mining district. They report the mines
as looking well, with plenty of ore in
sight and a large force of men will be
put to work in a few days, or as soon
as Mr.. Cotton goes back.
The boys tell a good one on LATE
Pierce, who is at Douglass with his
wife. One of the miners owns a phono-
graph which is at Rock Springs, and
the miner had been telling the other
men that he was going to bring it out
to the camp. LATE had heard the
miner speak of his photograph, and
the other day he accosted him and
said: Il wish you would hurry up and
get that photograph here; me and my
wife want to get our pictures taken"

A Mining Man in Town.

Richfield Censor: ]. G. Logan, for
two years past superintendent of the
Winnamuck mine in Bingham, is stop
ping at the Jensen House, having come
down from Salt Lake YESTERDAY. a
rumor that he was buying mining
property was current, and when asked
about it, he cared to say but little for
publication just yet. He admitted be-
ing the representative of a New York
syndicate that had bonded the Surprise
group south of the Sewer mine, and
that they were intending to absorb
other property near around. The COM
pany, he was certain, would do great
deal of work this summer, beginning
as soon as supplies could be hauled
into the mines. The syndicate has
plerty of money and likes the district
and may buy heavily and bond a great
deal of the Gold Mountain claims.
More will be known next week.

Elder Angus NJ. Cannon spoke fell
citously of the spirit which obtained
among the returned elders. His mis-
sion, he said. was to labor among
those who were converted in the world
by the elders. He was frequently sad
on accounts of conditions which he OBJ
served among the Saints. The people
had apparently forgotten the signifi-
canoe of the VOWS they had made when
they were baptized unto the remission
of their sins
The Saints, he continued. had forsak-
en- all the comforts of life TO become
disciples of Jesus. On account of these
sacrifices the sons of the people had
been forgiven. provided they had sin

sions of the Saints We're vain.

he continued, lis TO teach their chill
dren the necessity of being baptized at
the age of 5 years. This is frequently
neglected and parents will be held re-
sponsible for this carelessness Many
of the priesthood have tried to screen
their sons in their iniquities. Such con-
duct is unworthy of one who holds the
priesthood. Young men frequently re-

prevails and that life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness are no longer

ex-Councilman Sneed swore out war

dangering existence and stocking a
private graveyard in the complainant's
part of town. Mr.. Sneed admitted af-
ter awhile, that the bandit was only 13
years old. but was possessed of cussed-

tried TO murder the complainant by
throwing a rock at him and stoned him,
both when riding and on foot, and kept
