 Probably the wettest mine in Colo rado, says the Denver Mining Indus try and Review, is the Free Silver, at Aspen. It is said to flow 2,S00 gal Ions per minute This is equal to al most 100000 gallons in tWenty-four hours-enough to supply a city of 40,000 people.
 Tom Trainor has left the Congress mine and gone to Cave Creek, where he will help Charley Platt open up the latter's mine at that place. Mrs. Platt writing to her father here states that Trainor and Platt are taking out some fine ore, and that prospects are very encouraging -Prospector.
 Work on the development of the Baumann group of fourteen mines in the Agua Fria, will begin on No vember Is. The parties who have taken a bond on the mines are east ern capitalists, who have plenty oi money to put into development.

 The Los Angeles Times says that the only way for man to be success full in the tKlondyke country is to go without the slightest knowledge of where to look for gold With a ca pacity for starting in and digging in any old place, the veriest tender foot in the world is likely to come upon a mine of untold value But the experienced miner should remain | away from the country and do his prospecting in a region where gold is wont to locate itself according to | rules and regulations.
 The cost of cyaniding varies very largely with the character of the ore. i There are number of mills which crush and cyanide ore for less than $2 ton, exclusive of the royalty paid to the company owning the palt- ents. The lowest cost recently re- ported in this country is 85 cents a ton, at the Mercur mine, in Utah. No company has yet been able to reduce the cost of treating tailings to the minimum reached in South Africa 59 cents per ton; but one plant, oper- ating under exceptionally favorable conditions, is working at a cost of 69 cents tOn. In general, the tail ing plants a6 work in this country do not obtain a high extraction.

BY HIS WIPES HEROISM.
Threw Herself in Front of Her Illus
 band and Caught the Bullet.

Spokane, Wash, Nov. 5.-As the result of a sensational shooting af- fray that took place in front of the Occur d'Alene theater, on Howard street, d few minutes after o'clock this morning, Johnnie Bull, aged 62. an old time gambler and confidence operator, was shot three times and probably fatally wounded; H. s. Bar nett, manager of the theater, lost a finger shot off and his face was filled with burnt powder, while his wife, better known by the stage name of Ida Clayton, received a bullet through the shoulder. The shooting was the result of a deliberate attempt on the part of Bull to aSsassinate Barnett because the latter, in a row two hours previous, had hit Bull a blow on the head with a light rattan cane He would have been successful in his at | tempt had it not been for the heroic act of Mrs. Barnett, who, to shield her husband, deliberately threw her self in front of him, in doing which | she received the first bullet in her l shoulder. Bulls second shot carried
 away Barnett's middle finger, filled l his face with burnt powder and cut 8 hole in the rim of his hat Before | Bull could fire again Barnett emptied
 his revolver at him, three of the six
 bullets finding Judgment in Bulls

 The patent office holds that these patent attorneys are obtaining money under false pretences. This business has grown so lucrative that the of flee reports that almost every one whose name is on the list in the Ga zette receives dozens of letters from attorneys in all parts of the country, asking permission to apply for for eign patent on their inventions. The office has a number of these eases under consideration now, and as soon as the evidence is in shape number of prosecutions will be commenced. A glance at the prospectus of one firm of attorneys shows the methods and the profits. The countries are ranged in eight groups, and the price runs from $40 to $230. The profits on obtaining those patents are from $32 to $1S0 for each group.

MINING AT CHLORIDE.
Deep Work Reveals a Very High
 Grade of Ore.

One of the encouraging signs Of mining at Chloride in Mohave county, is the fact that the deepsr the work the higher dha grade, says Our Min eral Wealth. The Schuylkill, at the depth of 220 feet, has an o1e body es- timateid at twenty fest thick. Not all solid ore, but with its solid ore streaks, and the balance concentrat- ing or smeMing ores. Some of the richest gold and silver Gre yet discov- eriad in the county is found in this great body of ore, and the free gold and native silver that is taken out would surprise many people who only expect an average ore in such large ore chuta. Representative of capital who are looking over mining districts in search of ore should turn their at tsmtion to Chloride. The mines of Chloride are the greatest in Arizona and development is demonstrating that fact rapidly.
 From present development in the nOrdh drift the ore is improving, as- says showing from thIi5ie to fou teen ounces in gold with average of twelve ounces in silver and 20 per cent lead
 The drift is three feet in width and fhe ore fills the drift This north drift is seventy-five 1set from the sur face, and is now fifty feet in length. with all the Indications of extend ing into the north extension.
 The main shaIft is down ninety feet and the bottom is in high grade ore. Large chunks of tlha ore now in tIhe office of Judge Murphy at Kingman weighing from 100 to 200 pounds would open the eyes of the widest gold bug. There is over 100 tons of from three to ten ounce gold ore on the dump.
 At present thsre is in sight in the north drift about 800 tons of ores. Tlhe south drift is in twenty-five feet, also in high grade ore. The lead alone tin this mine good thing.
 Thel.e are three separate veins with in the lode, which is thirty-six felt between ThIe. walls. The first vein is six feet i'm width of concentrating ore running from $1O to $15 in gold.
 The second vein is five feet in width running from $15 to $2O in gold and the third vein is over five feet in width, which is now being deveSopad and only a part of it exploited h the north and south drifts; no oAosscut yet made to determine the width o1 this vein. Judge Murphy intends tt run the drift to determine the extent of thlsi chute of ore in the drifts, afte which the main shaft will be sunk another 100 feet and another drif run from the bottom
 Basides the work done at this poin there are three other shafts sunk o1 the lode at distances of 200 fest, 5Ot feet and 1000 feet, to depths iron fifty to seventyfiva feet showing o1 surface, and the whole width of tn, shafts carbonate and galena ore run ming from $10 to $40 in gold.
 Before much further development can be done machinery must be place, on the claim. There is plenty of wa ter already developed to run the hoist mill and concentrators.
 When properly developed, one hun dred tons of ore can easily be extract ed from each of the shafts daily.
 Judg'a Murphy intends going to Sal Francisco to obtain machinery for t(hl mime California parties are said t have made arrangements to purchas the property.

Last Friday. John Young. who lives IN
Henrico appeared at the County court

license to marry Lima Enrouehty. Ac-
cording to the reading Of the license the
ceremony was to have been performed on
that dav. but It now appears that 1t was
not. for Yesterday man, claiming TO be
a friend of Youngs, returned the license

These are the facts in the case as they
now stand, but upon close eXamna-

seems rather TO suggest itself.
The certificate was returned In very
solled and creased condition.
It has been badly torn. in fact one long
