THE CANADIAN CALAMITY.
List of Dead Numbers 25-Cause Of
the Accident

London, Ont, Jan. 4.-The union jack
today floats at half mast over the city
hall, but it is not needed to remind the
citizens of the horror of last night. The
city hall presents the appearance of a
wreck and the streets in front of it are
crowded with the curious and sorrow
ing citizens.
The list of dead numbers %, but it is
much to be feared that it is not yet
complete.
Some of the injured are not expected
to recover, and some will be confined
for weeks and months. Some of the
list of dead can never be made COM
plete. and some of the minor sufferers
are concerned, as many are able to be
about though suffering bruises, aches
and pains as a result of their terrible
fall.
City Engineer Graydon states that
the cause of the accident was the
breaking of a heavy beam which ran
beneath the floor almost at the center
of the space which gave way. The
beam broke in the center, throwing all
the people standing within a large
space, into one mass. The engineer did
not consider the hall dangerous and
SAYS that the tremendous weight sim
ply caused the beam to snap.
The inquest was begun today, but no
evidence will be taken until after the
funerals of the victims.

Willard Hill Operations.

Brigham Bugler: This week Fred
HiIlman brought to the Bugler office
some good samples of ore from his two
valuable claims on the hills just north
of Willard. Some of this property Mr.
TIillman has owned and worked for five
years. The two best claims are the
Rose and the Louise. The Rose is an
old claim that has been worked slight
ly for many years. 1t first belonged to
the Bankers. There are nearly a dozen
short tunnels marking its surface, but
none of them have been pushed to any
depth, and that is what is required in
the Willard mines-depth. Considerable
ore has been mined here which assays
20 per cent copper and 81 gold.
The Louise runs to 10 per cent cop
Per, all the ore showing gold. This
is a parallel claim to the Rose. There
is an 80-foot tunnel and a 60-foOt shaft
on the Louise. They recently encount-
cred big ledge of copper-gold quartz
here.
One thing that makes these claims
particularly valuable is that they are
close TO the county road, down to
which a chute could be easily construct
ed, and not over half mile from the
Oregon Short Line railway.

to make another consignment within the
next few days. Mr. Beckstead, who is
working force of four men in the opera
ton of the mine, informs The Herald
that he has a four-foot body of pay ore
disclosed in the property and that it is his
intention to ship regularly during the
coming year. He dssignates the NINE
which is high up in the mountains. as
inches TO six feet of snow encumbers the
ground, but that the roads are good
while the weather overhead, has been
fine for the past month.
The report of C. R. Boutwell, manager
of the Sacramento. at Mercur, as pub
lished in another column. shows that the
property is in excellent condition. and
that the mine is greater and better than
a great many are aware of. For instance
it is stated in the report that in the mine
there are 100000 tons of Semi-baSe ore
in sight which will carry average gold
values of so to the ton, which would
equal 5000. 900 in dollars and cents, TO say
nothing of what is beyond the present
workings in this direction. and in speak
ing OF the oxidized ores in sight. Mr.
Boutwell, says there is enough of this
class of material blocked out to run the
mill for several years to come. The COM
pany also has nice cash balance in the
treasury and now that the mill is to be
run on the oxidized ores, with very high
saving of values, there is every reason
to believe, beginning with the coming
month, that the company will be able to
resume the regular monthly payment Of
dividends

Him After Trial.

A. F. Doremus paid so cents and null

had pugnaciously declined to pay.
Mr.. Doremus and about IA newspaper
circulators and two attorneys arrived IN
the court simultaneously. Mr.. Doremus
had a fierce look and his whiskers dropped
like an emblem of deep mourning
Circulators McCracken, of The Herald,
Carrick, of the Tribune, and Dunbar. of
the News spoke in eloquent dithyrambics
about the ethics which prevail between a
subscriber and newspaper.
Miss Thomas and Carrier Coray also
made a few remarks about the taking of
Mr.. Doremus' order for the paper, and

dawn on his front doorstep. After some

structions that the paper was not to
thud against his doorstep promiscuously
and ad intinitum. but should cease as soon
as the amount he paid lost its efficacy.

he was not delivering his inaugural speech

author of high grades desisted with a

said Mr.. Doremus had won the case be-
yond all dispute. Attorney Hoffman said
he had not, but that he did not wish to
waste his accents in arguing the matter.
Justice Sommer lifted his voice and said
that according to his lights Mr.. Doremus
would have to pay the so cents and like
wise a few costs. Whereupon Mr..
Doremus arose and retired with such
awful dignity that Justice Sommer was
mute with admiration and failed to insist
on a settlement inStanter.

NO FAITH CURE

TABLETS.
They Cure Stomach Troubles and In
digestion Anyway, Whether You
Have Faith In Them Or Not.

All physicians agree that the element
of faith has a great deal to do in the
cure of disease.
Firm belief and confidence in a. fam
lily physician or the same confidence
and faith in a patent medicine, have
produced remarkable cures in all ages.
This is especially true in nervous
troubles and no field offers so prolific
a harvest for the quack and charlatan,
as the diseases arising from a weak or
run down nervous system.
Nevertheless. the most common of all
diseases, indigestion and stomach
troubles, which in turn cause nervous
diseases, heart troubles, consumption
and loss of flesh, requires something
besides faith to cure.
Mere faith will not digest your food
for you, will not give you an appetite,
will not increase your flesh and
strengthen your nerves and heart, but
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will do
these things, because they are COM
posed of the elements of digestion, they
contain the juices acids and peptOnes
necessary to the digestion and assimi-
lation of all wholesome food.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets viii di-
gest food if placed in a jar or bottle in

They invigorate the stomach, make

only way that nature can do it, and
that is, from plenty of wholesome food
well digested. 1t is not what we eat,
but what we digest that does us good.

sIxTY-DAY QUOTATIONS.
Attempt of the smelter Combine to
Swindle Producers.

Denver Colo, Jan. A special to
the Times from Aspen, Colo, says;
Aspen mine owners are settling for
ore today under protest upon the only
quotations for silver obtainable, 55B
cents. instead of 56%, the actual price.
All settlements are subject to correc-
ton. and strenuous effort is being
made to get the matter Strengthened
out at once. All Aspen contracts have
six months yet to run and call for
New York spot cash price on day of
settlement The attempt of the smelt-
ing combine to force settlements on 90
day quotations is looked upon by some
as a mere bluff, while others are in
clined to the belief that the aid of the
courts will have to be invoked TO COM
Del them to live up to existing con-
tracts The following telegram from
Western Union superintendent j. j.
Dickey has defined the character of the
quotations received in Aspen yesterday
and today:
referring to Aspen message about
silver. the Handy & Harmon quotation
as now furnished. is for silver in ore
and bullion, and is for so days, and IS
so furnished by Handy & Harmon,
upon request of Edward Breash, chair
man, representing smelter and refining
interests of the west"
Mine owners are combining and have
requested the Western Union Telegraph
company to furnish both cash and fu-
ture quotations, but no reply to the re-
quest has as yet been received. In
case the Western Union refuses, ar
rangements will be made to secure the
quotations direct from New York
Present quotations can only apply to
such properties as have no contracts

Tolerated By United States Courts.
The United States circuit court for
the southern district of New York,
Judge Townsend presiding, handed
down an opinion December 23d, 1897,
granting injunction and accounting. in
the suit of The HOstetter company
against Isaac SOmmerS and Louis
Joseph, for infringement of its Trade
Mark. The jurist states. in bold and
clear language, the rights accruing to
the Hostetter company, and the hab1l-
ity incurred by all who would rob them,
by fraud or Misrepresentation, of the
well-earned reputation and profits of
business built up by the efforts of half
a century. The judge says in part:
THE complainant is entitled to pro-
lection against the appropriation of its
trade mark, by any and all unfair and
dishOnorable means, and court of
equity has power to grant such protec-
ton whenever it is satisfied that an
attempt has been made by ingenious
subterfuges, to invade the rights Of an
owner of a trade mark. In the
sharp contest between the individual
manufacturer, who strives to acquire
and retain the fruits OF industry and
honesty, and the field of keen rivals,
seeking to Wrest from him the prize of
the public goodwill. the inventive in
genuity of the infringer has conceived
a great variety of devices for evad-
ing the established rules of fair deal
ing Courts of equity finding that
their ultimate object and effect were to
enable and induce the retail seller of a
fraudulent imitation to palm it off on
an unsuspectirg public for the genuine
article. and thus to contribute to the
infringement upon the rights of the
original owner. have not hesitated to

DOWN IN BEAVER COUNTY.
The Copper Mountain Is a Wonder,
and No Mistake.

Frisco, Utah, Jan. 9.-Holiday week
has not been productive of any I'M
portant strikes in Beaver Lake or San
Francisco districts.
There was a greater desire for claims
on New Years eve than has been
known for a great many years, and a
feeling prevails that better times are IN
view for the mining interests OF Beaver
county. But a very few claims IN
Beaver Lake were not protected by as
sessment, and as far as can be learned,
no claims were lost by owners VINO
wished to retain them.
San Francisco district was the scene
of a great deal of relocating, and sew
eral opposing parties were on dlHerent
claims. Every old claim in the district.
of note had one or more notices placed
upon it.
Some relocating was done in Preuss
district, and some active work VIII
most probably be done during the year.
A most exceptionally fine showing IS
reported in the Copper Mountain shaft
in Beaver Lake district, and If reports
are within a mile of the facts, the
property is certainly a wonder. From
several different sources the informa-
ton is had that nine feet of ore exists
in the shaft. A small cave has exposed
the ore for this width. For this nine
scattered through, and samples tested
in Frisco yield % per cent copper. Su-
perintendent Collins, who had the tests
made, asserts that the samples are a
fair average of the entire ore body.
The Chloride yields little ore every
day and is paying its own way now.
The ore is of such a high grade that it
does not require a great amount of
mineral to do this. President Ander-
son and Director David James, who
were out to the property yesterday, as
sert that the showing was the best yet
made.
King Carver and Nephi Griffith, who
completed work for 1897 on the Milan B
last week, say the showing there is
magnificent A test made from sam
pie picked at random, and apparently
of little value, assayed 10 per cent cop
per- six ounces silver and 81 gold.
c. H. Smith, a heavy stakeholder in
the Copper Mountain, came all the
way from Kansas TO look at the prop
erty and protect another location, New
Years eve. Mr.. Smith was one of the
original locators of the Copper Noun
tain, and has made many a sacrifice
to aid in its development.
Dan Kellehar is doing some work on
his Golden Age, near the Cupric, in
San Francisco district. Mr.. Kellehar
has vein about three feet wide, con-
tanning a high grade lead ore. with the
ledge matte of iron pyrites, carrying
average values of SIC and So gold. The
galena ore averages $40 in gold, and
often runs higher.
Mr.. Kellehar viii. not do much work
at present, on account of those aSSo-
ciated with him in the property not
