The University Medical School.

Yesterday was the last day in which
the motion for rehearing could have
been made in the university medical
school case and as no action was taken
it is presumed that the regents of the
university have accepted the matter as
inevitable and will not attempt to con-
test the case further.
Since the decision recently, there has
been an expression OF sentiment in Boul-
der extremely favorable to the final out
come of the case, from the standpoint of
local interest. If it had been found to
be constitutional to remove a part of the
Institution to Denver there was nothing
to prevent complete removal except
the matter of finances necessary to the
to the construction of new buildings. A
complete removal from Boulder would
be extremely unjust to the community
which has fostered the institution and,
as it were, nursed it from its infancy to
its present fourlshing condition. From
the stand point of law, there has been no
doubt in the minds of the lawyers of the
city that the decision was just one in
every particular, and the action of the
regents is a concession of the truth of
this belief.
The present plan of procedure as not
ed in these columns recently, is along the
lines of abandonment of the last twoyearS
of the course in this place, and to CO.
operate with the Denver medical schools
in founding union of the schools in
Denver for the completion of the tour
year course. OF course the union school
would be conducted independent of any
of the institutions, as under the recent
decision the university could not con-
duct department outside OF Boulder
though the regents it Is claimed have the
power of abandoning department when
it becomes Impossible to continue it.
The statement of the case is expressed
by the following interview of Regent
Temple with a Denver paper.
"As far as the state university is con
cerned, it has no intention of giving up
its medical school, but will continue to
run the first two years of the course
there as heretofore. We claim that our
facilities for teaching chemistry and
biology are the best in the state and the
only point where we are weak is in elm
ical facilities. We will continue our first
two years of the course as heretofore,
and if union school is secured in Den
ver. the pupils will probably come here
for the last two years to get the advantage
of the clinics in the hospitals. AS yet,
however, nothing has been decided, and
from present indications there will be
nothing done for some time"

Hahn's Peak.

Hon. Hank Stevens is in receipt of the
following information concerning Hahns
Peak and Whisky Park, under date of
June II, and signed by w. H. Meginnes:
ain the Hahn's Peak district the Tom
Thumb has been the principle mine, and
has been steady shipper, (when the
roads would permit) for year past.
The ore has averaged s2I per ton in
gold, silver and lead. The Southern
Cross tunnel is now in 400 feet and has
large vein of low grade ore, gold, silver
and lead, but is too low grade to bear
transportation.
The New Discovery, Jesse Boys. Greer
and others, have been worked steadily
all winter and have more or less mineral
to show. R. T. Darnall has pushed
work on his Texas and other properties
with vigor the past year.
AT Columbine the Shawnee, Dead Shot,
Minnie d., Hidden Treasure, New Cas-
tie, independence, Good Thunder and
others have good veins to follow, which
average from $40 to $50 per ton. But
what we need and must have before this
makes steady camp, are mills for the
treatment of our low grade ores. At
present we have wagon haul of $50
miles to the Denver smelters.
| The placers at Hahn's Peak and Red
Park are showing up well this season,
and are producing more gold than for
several years past. Particularly is this
true of Red Park placers, where a bed of
gravel has been found which is uncom-
monty rich.
The new finds in Whisky Park and
vicinity give evidence of being better
than anything heretofore found in this
district. The Elk Horn, discovered last
fall, has pay streak of galena from six
to twelve inches wide, that averages
from $500 to s4oo per ton at II feet in
depth. There is still considerable snow
in the Whisky Park vicinity, but FIVE
more veins of good mineral have been
opened up in the last two weeks"
