A DEFECTIVE FlUE.
One of the Sanitarium Cottages Badly
Damaged by Fire and Water.

DaHidSeu Dy L ITO anu "dseis
| At about o:3o this morning fire was
discovered issuing from the roof Of the
two story brick residence, located just
west of R. A. Duncan's on Mapleton
heights. An alarm was turned in imme.
dately, but on account of the long hills
and heavy roads, some difficulty was en-
countered in getting the hose carts to the
scene Boulder hose arrived first and
soon had a stream playing on the flames;
Macky hose followed by few minutes,
and the flames were quickly put under
control. Considering the many Difficult.
ties under which the companies worked.
their work was splendid and worthy of
commendatlon.
The house belongs to the sanitarium,
having been built by DR.. H. O. Place,
formerly manager OF the institution. 1t
is now used as residence for employees
of the institution. Two people were in
the house at the time of the fire but
neither could account for its origin,
though it is believed to have been due to
defective fue. The damage to the
house will probably reach over $500,
and is covered by an insurance OF $4,000.
The furniture and belongings in the
house were all saved excepting those of
Leon Whitney, which were entirely de
stroyed and were lot insured.

This property has one tunnel in over L.
200 feet besides several drifts, and is in
good shape to take out ore in large
quantities.
New ore pockets have just been open

be richer than some of the old pockets,
which proved to be some of the best in
the district.
The returns have just been received
from some ore shipped from the Ohio,
the second grade of which ran $3.50 to
the ton, This ore was taken from a
stope 900 feet in from the mouth of the
tunnel. Near the mouth of this tunnel
is large vein of smelling ore running
from $40 to $50, which could be mined
at little expense.
The Melvina mine, which is the oldest
and has been one of the best shippers in
the camp, has been idle for the past two
months. The Peabody Investment COM
pany of Denver has bond aud lease on
this property. D. G. Peabody, manager
