The Morgan of Hardscrabble.

Although meeting with innumerable
discouragements and set-backs, the
Morgan Mining company, of Hard
scrabble, has never lost hope, and with
a determination and exhibition of clear
grit that is commendable, the officers
of the company have continued on in
the even tenor of their way, and The
Herald is informed that today the
company is out of debt and that it is
the intention to continue to work and
operate. the property owned by the as
ISOLATION until the same is on a paying
basis, one of the latest movements in
this direction being the letting of a
contract for 80 feet of tunnel work on
a new ledge on the back end of the
group, the contract being let to John
Sterling and his associates.
The ledge mentioned above is strong
and well defined and carries free mill
ing quartz that assays 81 ounces silver
and IS in gold to the ton, and it is be-
lieved that with depth the metallic con-
tents of tho ore will materially increase
and that before the summer is over this
portion of the property viii be on a
paying basis. when the machinery on
the ground. irte rded originally for the
teaching of ocrper ores, but which was
never utilized, can be remodeled and
used in the reduction of the ore from
the new discovery.
The IEiTes of the company are locat-
ed in Morgan county. just over the di-
vide, at the head of City creek AND
the GENERALIZATION of that locality is
such as to justify the expenditure of
considerable time and money in pros
peclirg and the performance of devel-
oDment work.

COPPER RIVER NO GOOD.
Klondike Reports Are Exaggerated
and Often Untrue

Ogden, March 22.-J. Z. Tatman of
Cripple Creek stopped over in Ogden
yesterday. Mr.. Tatman is returning
from the Klondike country, but asserts
that Cripple Creek is his home and
hereafter he will stay in Colorado. The
gentleman left Seattle last June and
went by way of Skaguay His pros
pecting was in the Copper Rover coun-
try, but his observations and his talks
with men from all districts have given
him some decided views on the Klon-
dixie country.
The finds in that country, he says, are
exaggerated beyond all reason, and he
considers the transportation companies
responsible for most of the exaggera-
ton.
Copper river, which he prospected.
and also number of it's tributaries, ne
pronounces a failure. No fortunes have
ever been taken from Copper river.
He did not go to Dawson City, but
says the reports of gold finds there are
overrated. The paying claims are all
located in that vicinity, but the gold
lies in streaks. AS an instance of how
reports are made, Mr.. Tatman said that
on the boat on which he returned from
Skaguay to Seattle, there were about so
prospectors, discouraged and broke. The
reporters boarded the boat at Van
couver and proceeded to interview a
dozen or so. Usually the man owing
the most would tell the biggest story
Men who did not have IS to their names
would claim to have $4,000 or S35, O00
and consequently when the boat
reached Seattle the papers had already
related that there was S250,0O0 aboard.
when, as a matter of fact there was no
Klondike Treasurer abroad. This boat
was the Mayo.
The sickness and suffering at Skag-
uay and along the trail is something
awful. The outfitters and hotel men
at Seattle are the ones who are max
ing the money.

templating a trip to Klondike is don't"

Trial of Miss Edwards.

There was quite a large attendance
in Judge Norrells division of the dis
trict court yesterday, the people being
attracted to hear General John Lu
Taylor defend Miss Charlotte Edwards.
who is on trial for grand larceny and
receiving stolen goods. The general is
leading counsel for the defendant and
is assisted by Attorney Jesse Roote,
while the state is represented by AS
sistant County Attorney Putnam. The
trial was begun on Monday, and, from
present appearances, will consume most
of the week.
Yesterday morning Mrs. Free. who
claims to own the stolen property, took
the stand for croSS-eXaminatiOn by
General Taylor, and she remained there
nearly all the forenoon, during which
counsel endeavored to break her origin
al testimony, but with very little sue
cess
For the prosecution also were exam
ined W. II. Brooks, Mrs. Angelina
Simpson, Alice B. Nesbit, Annie Kolitz,
V. Nesbitt. F. B. Black. c. Nj. Ball, JO-
seph Wheeler, Emma Mahan, Mrs. G..
Hanson and Theodore Gunderson. Each
witness was cross-examined at length
by General Taylor.
The prosecution will probably be con-
cluded today, and it is anticipated that
several days will be occupied by the
defense. 1t is probably proving the
most slowly tried case on record.

A VOICE FROM KLoNDIKE.
A Former Park City Miner Is Meet
ing With Success.

Park City, March 22.-Thomas Nsstor,
formerly an Ontario drain tunnel man,
but now in the Klondike country, has
been heard from, his letter having
been written in December He has a
claim on Sulphur creek, and has built
a cabin. He is sinking a shaft in the
cabin, but has not yet reached bed

his claim, but determined TO gamble
on it himself and take the risk of re-
alizing bigger thing than the sum
offered.
The late Bishop Morris was engaged
at different times in the construction of
furnaces in the mills here, having built
five Stetefeldt furnaces in the Ontario
mill, and one in the Marsac. He also
put in the masonry work for the big
Cornish pump at Ontario No. 3.

PROSPECTS AT DUGWAY.
Good Ore From the Gold and Silver
Carbonate Mine

Carbonate Mine.
Mercur, March 22-J A Ferbrache
returned from Dugway a few days ago
bringing with him a hundred pounds of
ore as a sample from the Gold and Sill
yer Carbonate claim. The shaft on the
property is about SO feet deep, and for
some distance the ground has been
highly mineralized. The vein has been
followed from the surface and the rich
streak has been growing larger, until
it is now about two feet thick, and
carries rich carbOTates Should the
samples prove to be as rich as it is
believed to be, shipments will commence
at once. as there are several tons of
the same class of ore on the dump,
and 500 pounds can be taken out daily.
On the Calumet, which is the ad-
joining claim. gold bearing carbonate
mas been found. and the owners are pre-
pared to do some extensive development
there this summer.
The Beckhurst Bros. are shipping
some good ore, and considerable work
is being done on the Buckhorn and the
Diedrick claims.
Everyone in the district is feeling
hopeful about the future of the camp,
and there are good reasons to believe
that the railroad will reach there this
season. AS depth is being reached rich
bodies of ore are being exposed, which
must eventually place the Deep Creek
country in the front ranks of mineral
producers.

TO BEAUTIFY CITY CREEK.

ADDRESSES CITY COUNCIL.
Suggestion That Trees Be Transplant-
ed In the Canyon, and That It Be
Made Into a Park.

The following communication was
presented to the city council last night
and referred to the committee on pub
lie grounds:
ITO the Honorable the Mayor and
Members of the City Council Salt
Lake City, Utah:
conference.-the Utah Forestry as
ISOLATION, at its last regular meeting,
held March 10, 1888, in this city, de-
clded to bring to the attention of your
honorable body the following sugges-
tons:
City Creek canyon can, with but lit
tie trouble or expense, be materially
improved and beautified by transplant
ing number of trees that we think
can be spared from Liberty park. of
which there are a considerable number
OF hardwood trees of various kinds, es-
pecially ash and also some eVergreens.
We would suggest that SO many OF
these trees as can be spared be trans
planted in City Creek canyon.
We would also suggest that there be
cleaning up and trimming out of the
groves and trees in certain parts of
the canyon.
We would also suggest that on Ar
Dor day next the good people of this
city be invited TO go up City Creek can
yon, bringing with them such trees
and shrubs as they can obtain, and I'M
der the supervision of your honorable
body plant the same.
In this connection we desire to say
to your honorable body that Mr.. Rich
ard Kletting, member of our society.
has given the above subject consider
able thought, and prepared maps and
plans showing how the canyon can be
improved and beautified and ultimately
made into one of the finest parks in the
world. These maps. as we'll as Mr..
Kletting's assistance, are at your SER
vice.
Hoping and believing that your hon
Orable body will find the suggestions
ripe and feasible. we beg to remain

JAPAN'S OPPORTUNITY.
Cur Proposed War Would Enable Her
to Grab Philippines.

New York, March 22.-The Herald's
correspondent in London interviewed
Sir Charles Dixie as to the relations
between the United States and Spain.
He thought that there was no doubt
that if war came the United States
would more than hold their own. He
did not hink it possible Spain would at
tempt to block American ports. Asked
as to the attitude of other countries in
case of war. Sir Charles said: Japan
is perhaps the only nation that might
be tempted to interfere. She has not
found the opportunity for expansion in
China that she expected. and a war be
tween the United States and Spain
might tempt her to grab the Philip
pines. 1 regard it as improbable that
England would in any way take part in
such a war officially. but the sympa-
thies of England will all be with the
United States"

SIMPLICITY ITSELF.
A SIMPLE, HARMLESS REMEDY.
Yet 1t Cures the Worst Cases Of Dys-
pepsia and Indigestion

DIR. Jennison. who has made a life
study of stomach troubles, says: All
forms of indigestion really amount TO
the same thing. that is, failure to COM
pletely digest the food eaten; no mat
ter whether the trouble is acid dys-
pepsia or sour stomach, belching of
wind, nervous dyspepsia or loss of flesh
and appetite, a person will not have
any of them if the stomach can be in
dUCed by any natural, harmless way to
thoroughly digest what is eaten, and
this can be done by a simple remedy
which 1 have tested in hundreds OF
aggravated cases with complete sue
cess. The remedy is a combination of
fruit and vegetable essences. pure aSep-
tic pepsin and golden seal put up in
the form of pleasant tasting tablets and
sold by druggists under the name of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. One or two
of these tablets should be taken after
meals and allowed to dissolve in the
mouth and. mingling with the food in
the stomach, digests it completely be-
fore it has time to ferment, decay and
sour.
On actual experiment one grain OF
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
three thousand grains of meat, eggs
and similar wholesome foods
1t is safe to say if this wholesome
remedy was better known by people
generally, it would be a national bless
ing, as we are a nation of dyspeptics,
and nineteenth of all diseases owe their
origin to imperfect digestion and nutri-
ton.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not a
secret patent medicine, but a fifty-cent
package will do more real good for
weak stomach than fifty dollars worth
of patent medicines, and a person has
the satisfaction of knowing just what
he is putting into his stomach. which
he does not know, when widely adj
vertised patent medicines are used.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets full sized packages. 5ects.
