A GOOD PROSPECTING COUNTRY
Ferguson District Looked on as most
Promising Field.

1t has been an acknowledged fact
for years that Phoebe and the section
of country around it in nearly every
direction for fifty miles or more is
one of the best mineral bearing Sec
ton of country, and that fact seems
to strike every new conner who looks
into the matter from prospectors
standpoint.
The Salt Lake Tribune in recent
issue says:
Charles Conant, who has been
prospecting in Lincoln and its neigh
boring counties in Nevada for sew
eral months, has returned to the city
and says that during his absence he
saw no camp that afforded greater
signs of prosperity than that of De-
Lamar. There is an air of content
ment about the people that is rarely
found at point so far distant from
the railroad and while some complain
sickness, his opinion is that Della
Mar is about as healthy as any camp
on the map. The DeLamar mine
he regards as one of the biggest the
world has ever developed, while the
mill is as perfect as any plant, says
Mr.. Conant, on which he ever laid
eyes.
There is considerable speculation in
local circles, he adds, concerning
Capt. De La Mars intentions with
reference to the future of the April
Fool. The impression at Delamar
is that the purchase of the Reeves
interest in the property is being fol-
lowed up by negotiations for the
Wilson and Dooley interest, and that
having acquired these, if such a
thing is possible, the exploration OF
that ground will be on scale just as
extensive as that which prevails at
the Jim Grow and Monitor. Mean
while the April Fool is doing very
nicely, and should the Captain &C.

 One of the meanest confidence gaaes on record is that which was played by a well dressed man and woman upon clergymen of several towns along tho sound shore. The couple first appeared in Branford, Conn.,, where they visited the town clerk and procured marriage license. Then they went to the house of 6 clergyman and were married. The groom after the ceremony handed the parson q $20 bill and told him to take @5 for his services. The minister did so and gave the newly welded husband S15 in change.

Then without leaving the water she returned to the starting point and was within less than 100 yards of Listers float when cramp attacked her left leg and she was com pelled to accept her brothers aid from the boat. She had been in the water two hours and fifteen minutes.

Ter CITE to Science.

Before her death, which occurred i'll New York city in 1878, Mrs. M. K. Benehley, the widow of 8 former lieu- tenant governor of Massachusetts, willed her body to the Woman's Medical col lege. According to the provisions of thls queer will fle body of Mrs Benehley was to be carefully disseoted and her skeleton hung in the college museum. As far as we have been able to learn, this is the only instance oil record where an educated woman has deliberately sent her body to the disseoting room and her bones to the showrooms of a museum. We can cite several instances where the progressive class of women thinkers have given orders that their bodies should be ere1nated, but this Is the only instance on record where g tal- ented woma4 has made such a gift to science.

Philadelphia, May 10.-The interstate
commerce commission today, in the
United States court rooms here, re-
sumed its hearing on the subject OF
differential freight rates. A prelimin-
airy hearing was given in New York in
March last, and a postponement was
taken with the agreement that the
commission continue the hearing in this
city today. The case at issue is that
of the produce exchange of New York
against 81 railroad companies for MAIN
tanning in alleged violation of the in
terState commerce act a system of
freight differentials in grain, flour and
provisions from the west to Philadel-
phia, Baltimore, Newport News and
Norfolk, which the New York produce
exchange ailege has operated to the
disadvantage of the commerce of New
York. All of the railroads in the joint
traffic association are named in the pc
tition of the New York exchange and
In addition to these a number of rail-
roads are also included which are not
mem Oers of the traffic association. The
differentials complained of are 2 cents
per 100 pounds in favor of Philadelphia
and cents in favor of Baltimore, Nor
folk and Newport News
The petitioners also allege that ship
pers of grain TO Boston are given the
advantage of the same rate as is
charged 10 New York, and are granted
certain privileges in the way of ter
minal facilities for export grain.

ABOUT THOSE SLIPPERS.
Sent from Salt Lake, But Not by
Salt Lakers

In reference to the silver lined slip
pers sent by one Thomas Conroy of
Salt Lake TO a prisoner at the San
Quentin penitentiary in California an
account of which appeared in the
Herald dispatches OF yesterday morn
ing, the San Francisco Examiner of
last Sunday has the following:
COnvicts are up to all sorts of tricks
to get contraband goods into prison.
They are clever and resort 10 plans to
beat the captain of the yard that are
marvellous in their conception. Yester-
day morning a pair of slippers were
sent to the penitentiary at San Quentin
TO be delivered to a prisoner. They
were of simple make and innOcent-
Edgar received the articles and
scanned them carefully. Apparently
they were all right. 1t was noticed
however, that the soles of the slippers
did not bend easily and the soles were
ripped open. The slippers were silver
lined. Between the soles and along
the sides were half dollars, placed in
such perfect manner as to defy detec-
ton. There was also a letter spread
out between the soles. The letter read
as follows:
Dear Joe: l will take this oppor-
tunity of sending some money to Fatty.
George told me to send il to you. 1t
was impossible for me TO land the dope.
1 went over there on Tuesday night, af-
ter George came out, and got a hot
frost away from there. There was d
big dog at the house and he COM
menced to bark like everything and a
guard came up. l was in big luck to
get away. Bill Jones went over with
me. I could not stay in California
another day, or the chances are that
would have been over there with you.
In fact, 1 am making a getaway now.
If this stuff lands all right l viii send
more from time to time, as l can. This
is not much, but it is the best l can do
on the desert. 1 had pound of
Georges stuff and about three-quarters
of my own. and lost it all. Write as
soon as you get this and let me know
