CHERRY CHEEK ITEMS.

Dolph Sunberg, some months since
while working in the Star mine, was
struck over the eye by falling piece
of timber, the eye has been affected
ever since and has been getting worse.
On Tuesday, he departed for Salt Lake
City to consult an oculist. We hope
he will return cured of the trouble.
The hosting works and lumber for
building to replaced the works recently
destroyed by fire, are on the road for
the North Mountain Co.
The Old Imperial Co., are still del
wing in ore and pushing ahead their
tunnel.
Messrs. Erickson and Honrad of
Utah, representing the Modern Mining
Co., arrived on Tuesday with force OF
men to work mill tailings in Cherry
Creek Canyon. Machinery will be on
the ground in few days. This is to
be new process and will be watched
with interest.
Many enquiries arc being made of our
business men by gentlemen of other
States, concerning the mines of this
camp, and when shipments OF bullion
from the Star group OF mines are ADDED
to that of the North Mountain, many
eyes will be green with envy.
At the Grey Eagle shaft good ore is
constantly coming to surface, and the
mill is being made ready for new con-
centrators.
More miners will soon be wanted for
these mines.
1t is understood that very powerful
hosting works for the Star shaft are
expected within two weeks.
The pump in the Star shaft is of a
new pattern, and withal of a tremen-
dous capacity. So far it has been be-
yond the ability of the various pump
men to understand it and work 1t sue
cessfully, but Jos. L. Moore, an old
time engineer of the Star mine has just
taken it in hand and the bottom OF the
mine will soon be reached. Good for
Joe.

Mrs. Ryan, one of Cherry Creeks
old Residents, Passes Away.

From Cherry CorrespondsnD
The friends of Mrs. Mary Ryan had for
several months watched with anxiety
her declining health, and as time passed
by they noticed the lamp flicker weaker
until she was confined to her bed for a
short time and carefully watched and
nursed by sorrowing daughter and
sons-sorrowing without hope until the
vital sparks had fled. She passed away
peacefully on Saturday morning about
4 O'Clock, having received the rites OF
the Roman Catholic Church, recently.
The funeral took place on Sunday AZ
ternoon, when long procession OF
friends in vehicles and on foot followed
the remains to the upper cemetery.
Before leaving her late residence a
quartet composed of Dolph Sunberg,
James Pascoe, Miss Nora Mason and
Lille Borchert, sang Jesus Lover OF
my Soul and Nearer my God to
Thee.
The services at the grave were per-
formed by Mr.. P. H. Cannon. George
Parker was the undertaken and the
arrangements were very successfully
carried out.
Mrs. Ryan was native of Ireland,
and was "a years of age. She has lived
in Cherry Creek lS years, and was not
known to have an enemy.
The unstinted sympathy of the COM
munity goes out to the daughter, Mrs.
Mamie Thomas, who is great favorite
here, as we'll as to Johnny and Mr..
Thomas.
The family desire to express their
sincere thanks to their many friends
for acts of kindness and sympathy
shown them in their afliction.
