This mild winter" said VIM. Mum
ger, on Tuesday, reminds me of the
winter of 1882, the first winter any
one passed in Miller. And come to
think about it, Del Miller, Ralph
Munger and myself are the only ones
left in Miller who spent that winter
here" A further inquiry developed
the additional fact that Doug and
Del. Miller were the only survivors OF
the original 1881 settlers, Doug.
however spent the following winter
in Iowa, while Del. remained here, as
stated above. The boys say that
was a fine winter all through, and
they could work out of doors a great
deal OF the time in their shirt sleeves.
That was the winter following the
big SHOWS OF 1901, of which the

In advocating the raising OF Il
bonus to move the st. Lawrence mill
to that place. the Highmore Herald
says: why is it that Miller and St.
Lawrence wheat buyers pay more
than buyers at Highmore? Simply
and only because they avethe mills.
From this cause the prices paid at
Miller and st. Lawrence has always
been enough higher to cause large
guam titles OF wheat from this sec
ton and from west and north of
Highmore many miles to be market
ed at Miller or st. Lawrence, rather
than here.

A Vanishing City.

Washington Times II. Il. OoIkey
and the Times editor went to Siding
No. 8, Monday, and attended the
obsequies of Chapter No. "a. While
killing time during the afternoon, we
msapdered around the town and oc-
casionally found a building that
was occupied, but seldom found any
one at work. We dropped into a
store and ran up against a fine stock
of goods that looked neat and clean
as a brand new outfit, nothing out
of place, everything in apple-pie or
der, no dirt upon the floor, no loaters
lounging about, no nothing, butlust
great big store room packed full OF
goods. Nothing is eyer disturbed,
everything seemed to have perma-
nent resting place. From there visited
another store in the town and
found it somewhat different, a few
customers were around and some life
exhibited, but not enough to make
the owner feel as if he might be-
come q millionaire before the next
food or day OF doom. In converse
ton with an old resident, We learned
that about Is buildings had already
been moved from the townsite to
Miller and other localities, and that
negotiations were pending for as
many more, which would be moved
in the spring. The Miller people
haye already contracted for the
townsite at $3.50 per acre, and as
soon as all the buildings are re-
moved, cemetery association vii!
be organized and Greater Miller will
have one of the finest natural spots
for q cemetery in the state. Anoth-
er old citizen told US that if it hadn't
! been for McCullen and Mitchell OF
Washington, who opened up the mills
and warehouses last fall, and made
business hum for awhile, that fun
eral would have resulted from the to-
tai collapse and stagnation that pre-
vailed prior to their debut upon the
stage OF progress, and the special ef'
forts put forth by them have simply
delayed the inevitable that is so neal
at hand, and which will wipe out O

little cities that ever doomed during
the boom days back in the sos, when
everybody was scrapping for a quar-
, ter section, or more, OF Uncle Sans

Croker Looking to Readoption of the
Chicago Platform

New York.-The story is current in New
York political circles that Richard Croker
favors the readoption of the Chicago plat
form by the New York state Democratic
convention this year.
Mr.. Croker's talks with upstate Dem
ocrats who have called on him are said
to lead him to believe that combination
on platform, candidates and all can be eff
fected If Tammany will go into the deal.
Not long ago Mr.. Croker favored q
campaign solely on state issues and the
relegation of the financial question to the
congressional district convention but since
ex-senator Hill seized upon that plan as a
way out of political troubles, Mr.. Croker
has been lukewarm. He does not like to
trail along behind Mr.. Hill.
Senator Murphy's vote for the Teller sill
yer resolution was cast after a conference
with Mr.. Croker, who urged the senator to
maintain his party regularity, and Tam
many Hall, to man, will formally approve

WHERE ARE THE G0ULDS?
THEIR CASTLE AT LA CREsCENTA
STRANGELY DESERTED
The Jerusalem Palace Knows Its
Owners No More-Foul Play or
Randsburg Minesp

PASADENA, Feb. 24.-(Office of The
Herald So East Colorado street) A pecu-
liar story is circulating through the little
foothill town of La Crescenta, some twelve
miles northwest of Pasadena. 1t is to the
effect that Mr.. and Mrs. Gould's handsome
place, costing $4,000, has been abandoned
with the handsome furniture. silverware,
ETC., in it. The whereabouts of Mr. and
Mrs Gould is unknown. A neighbor pass
ing the place ten days ago found that it
was abandoned. A careful investigation
was made and no sign of life was found
about the place. The doors were open.
Neighbors will watch the place so that
thieves cannot steal the contents of the
house. The castle was built by II. Gould
and was known as the Jerusalem palace
from its style of architecture. The history
OF the place is unique. Some years ago DR..
Briggs of Northern California settled in
that vicinity on account of III health. He
was wealthy and when he died he left his
fortune to his niece Miss Briggs married
young clerk who had some romantic
ideas, as result of which the castle was
built. Gould is said to have squandered
most or all of the fortune in Randsburg
mines. Some talk of foul play has been
heard, but as yet the disappearance OF Mr..
and Mrs Gould Is a mystery.

Its prevention. Before the rigid exam
nations of workmen and visitors began to
be enforced, native laborers were often
under secret compact with their tribal
rulers not to come back from the mines
without good-slzed stolen diamond for
the chiefs use; hence a great many SUI
perb gems are in the dark, unfathomed
caves of a Kaffir headman's establish
mcnt.
Within few years enterprising traders
have made special expeditions and palav-
ers for diamonds so hidden, with the re-
suit of successfully bartering for them.
Liquor and guns have been found useful.
In some instances the superstition of the
chiefs stood in the way of traders recov-
ering valuable stones, but, on the other
hand, small company working on this line
of acquisition is credited with having OBJ
tanned within four months not less than
$500 900 worth of diamonds. One agent sue,
ceeded in buying of chief six stones OF
