OLD WOOD COPPER MINE
Which Was Years Ago a Flourishing Place-Has Been Reopened by Col
 D. W. Derrick, of Colorado.

Carroll County Times.
 The good people of Carrollton and vi- cinity can recall the time, some eighteen or twenty years ago, when the old Dick Woods copper mins at Stone Hill. Gle burne county. Ala, was enjoying such degree of prosperity that it became known all over the country. In those days regular shipments of high grade copper ore were made by way of Carroll ton to the northern smelters. It was not generally known at that time that all the ore shipped from this mine carried a large value in both gold and silver in addition to the copper value, yet such was the fact and th- books where the ore was treated show that the Stone Hill cop per mine, as it was known, shipped ore to the value of more than one million dollars The mining was done in quite a primitive way, and the ore extracted was merely from an oxide to sulphide. and as mining become more difficult and expensive 1t was not long before work was suspended and the mine abandoned, the operators believing that they had mined all the ore that would pay the cost of mining.
 The mine remained idle for about seventeen years, when a little over year ago Col. D. w. Derrick, of Colorado, se- cured control of the property. Col. De trick realized that he had a very hard proposition to solve, but he was equal to the occasion. The old workings were full of water and badly caved in. The neces- sary machinery was placed in the mine, the water pumped out and all the wreck cleared away, the old workings, securely tinlbered and the reopening of the mine commsnced in earnest. At this writing the mine is in first-class condition, we'll equipped for deep working. The old main inclined shaft is being sunk on the ore vein. It is ths intention to continue this shaft to a. considerable depth. run ming levels each way on the vein at in- tervals of about sixty feet. After the first levels are run the mine will be in shape to produce great quantities of ore and large daily shipments will be made The ore is of surprisingly good grade, car- rying copper, silver and gold. The work of development is being carried on with a large force of men under the very able management of Capt. Lee McGonegal The ore now being hoisted from the shaft is of good grade and there is several car- loads ready for shipment. Col Derrick is so we'll pleased with his venture that he has recently secured the old Smith mine and some other properties in the vicinity Before the close of the present year the whistle of the locomotive will be heard at the mine and Col. Derrick will be realizing the reward which his pluck and energy so well deserve.

FISHING RIGHTS IN ALASKA.
Action to Settle the Dispute
Brought at San Francisco.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 1.-THE Su-
perior Court was called upon to-day to
settle a dispute over valuable fishing
rights in Alaska.
The matter was presented through a
suit commenced by the Pacific Steam
Whaling Company to recover 100000
damages from the Alaska Packers As
sociation. 1t appears from the COM
plant that the Pacific Steam Whaling
Company has for a number of years
maintained an extensive plant for the
taking of salmon at the mouth of the
Karluk River and along the Karluk
beach, on Tanglefoot or Karluk Bay.
The corporation claims to have been
seriously interfered with in this year s
fishing by employees of the Alaska
Packers Association, the corporation
defendant
The trouble between the two corpo-
rations is described as having COM
menced in July last, when the fishing
season was at it's hight. A charge is
made that in order to prevent the taxi
ing of fish by the employees of the
poration had to resort to force and the
use Of firearms.
1t IS the theory of the Pacific Steam
Whaling Company that the fishing
grounds at Karluk are public property.
The company avers. therefore that the
exclusive fishing rights or ownership
cannot vest in any one corporation or
individual. Such right and ownership
is asserted by the defendant corpora
ton.

HOLGATE (O), Nov. 11.-Word
reached this city this evening from
Oakwood. Ohio, small hamlet twenty
five miles south of here, of an outrage
perpetrated last night by Whitecaps
upon two girls, Edith and May Roberts,
aged II and II years.
Ten days ago the young ladies re-
ceived a notice warning them to leave
the town and county, but they paid no
attention to the notice Last night they
were awakened by a band of eight or
ten men, who entered their rooms and
dragged them from their beds in their
night robes to the nearby road, where
they were terribly whipped by cat-o'-
nine-t tails, which was found in the road
this morning.
After beating the two girls, the white
caps gave them a coat of tar and
feathers, and took them back to the
house. where they were found uncon-
scious this morning by people going
by. May. the youngest of the two, is
in a critical condition, the flesh being
cut to the bone by the whip.

When Poole, the famous tailor, was

walk upon the pier. A young man was
also upon the pier with a couple of la

coming:
Now, you wouldn't take that good
looking man for tailor, but he is.

politely acknowledged the salutation Of
his customer, who, walking up to him,
said: Here, Poole. now do take a
look at me- Does this coat fit?"
Poole took in the situation. 1T GER
tainly does not fit said he, and pull

ceeded literally to mark and cross the
coat all over, and then observed, with
the utmost urbanity: Now, if you
