Provo, Aug. 29-The board of edu-
cation met last night and resumed con-
sideration OF the case of Miss Daisy

titioner, objected and was sustained.
Miss Moore stated that she and Mrs.
Martin were friends until the latter
went east. She admitted having gone
out driving with Mr.. Martin during
his wifes absence, but denied having
gone to the bank at any time except
on business. and said she had never
gene there at night. On the night of

said Mrs. Speckhart was hunting for
her husband. and was in great distress.
Mrs. SDeckhart went home, but Miss
Moore went after her, but hearing
voices north of her house, went in that
direction. when Mrs. Martin ran up and
frightened her. Miss Moore ran. with
Mrs. Martin after her, and tried to get
into Professor Davis place, but the
gate would not open, and Mrs. Martin
closed upon her, creating a scene.
Miss Moore denied the story of Mrs.
Martin regarding her crawling into her
home On her hands and knees.
Miss jacobson testified that on June
81 she was standing at her gate and

BINGHAM's COPPER BELT.
Continued Improvement Noted In the
Dalton and Lark Country.

G. G. Hall of the Congor mine, in the
Dalton and Lark country, above Bing-
ham, who is in the city, states that the
Congor is looking better than ever be-
fore in its history, and that at the pres
ent time the men are breaking down
and hosting to the surface some very
fine copper ore, while the showing in
the mine is of most encouraging ma
ture.
Mr.. Hall is now more confident than
ever as 10 the possibilities of this sec
ton in the production of copper, and
cites The Herald to the fact that in
the Winnebago, about 600 feet south
east Of the Congor, some nice looking
copper ore is being taken out, the I'M
derstanding being that in the workings
of this property quite an amount of
this character of ore is blocked out
ready TO be broken down for the mar
ket.
Mr.. Hall made special mention of the
Dalton and Lark, and he stated that he
had been informed that in the work
ings on the S50-fOot level in this prop
erty a four-foot body of solid ore had
been uncovered which carries copper
values ranging from % to 90 per cent,
besides we'll in lead and silver. In fact,
the representative of The Herald was
given to understand that this is the
best showing of copper ore ever dis
closed in this camp of wonderful min
eral possibilities, and the impression
prevails that with continued develop
ment the copper bearing zones of the
Dalton and Lark viii open up in a way
that will astonish mining men and
those interested in the property, and
that it viii prove a revelation to those
who are looking far and wide for good
copper producers.
The keystone and Fortune, under the
able supervision of Elmer Hill, are also
showing up we'll, with the ore bins full
to overlooking awaiting transportation
to the market as soon as the Dalton
and Lark tramway is clear for outside
business, while other properties in that
locality are responding nobly to the
magical influence of intelligent develop
ment and the wise expenditure of
money.

]. w. Young of the Bingham Placer
company Of this city. which is operat-
ing at GibDonsville, Ida, writes Presi-
dent Theodore Bruback very encourag-
ingly regarding disclosures in these
diggings, and states that the showing
is so encouraging that it is with regret
that the workings for the season are
being closed down on account of a
shortage of water, although conditions
are such that operations next year
should place the enterprise on the list
as a dividend payer.
Although the company lost two
months this year on account of unfOre-
seen h.ndrances, the application OF the
hydraulics had uncovered bedrock just
as the water virtually played out, and
a point had been reached where sub
stantial remuneration was anticipated
for the time and money expended so
far in the development of the diggingS,
but Mr.. Young writes that the showing
on the bedrock is revelation, and
foretaste Of what the company may
expect when another run is made, and
he relates the fact that in making pan
nings of the dirt at bedrock SIS in
placer gold had been realized in eight
pans, and that one pan showed a re-
covery of the yellow metal valued at
81, so that il will be seen that Verit-
able Klondike is embraced within the
holdings of the company, and Mr..
Young adds that he is of the opinion
that q miner with a rocker could clean
up at least $50 a day on an area of
gravel not exceeding a few yards
square.
Although the use of the giant has
been discarded for the season, still
work will be continued in opening up
the ground so that greater returns
Will ensue the next run.
The officers of the company are much
gratified and pleased over the show
ing, and are satisfied that another year
will demonstrate the fact that they are
interested in a bonanza.

Victim of the Thompson's Springs
Tragedy Laid Away
SKETCH OF HIS CAREER
BEGAN LIFE AS a COLORADO
COWBOY.
Became One of the Most Prominent
Stockmen of Eastern Utah and
Was Recognized as One of the
Leading Citizens of His Section at
the Time of His Death.

CFrom The Herald's Correspondence
American Fork, Aug. 29.-On Satur-
day at p. m. the funeral of E. F.
Graves, who was killed at Thompson's
Springs, was held at the family resi-
dence of Mr.. Jensen, father-in-law OF
the deceased, the body of the departed
having arrived at noon Friday on the
Rio Grande Western flyer.
The funeral cortege started at Web
ster & Greenwoods undertaking par
lors, where the body had been en-
balmed, and drove slowly TO the house
where the services were TO be held.
where some 40 carriage loads of people
were in waiting.
Those who spoke were w. r. Webb.
James H. Clark, Thomas Barratt and
w. D. Robinson.
The deceased was born at Shullsburg,
Wis, Sept. IL, 1856, but his parents re-
moved to Gold Dirt, Colo, in 1863, and
in 1866 they went to Denver to reside.
Young Graves was determining to live
the wild and adventurous life of a
western cowboy, and when he was only
IA years of age ne started out fear
lessly and alone and run away from
home.
He was lucky enough to find en-
ployment with Lyman c. Cole. a prom
inent Colorado cattle king, who was
then furnishing beef for Union Pacific
railway contractors and the United
States government. He labored in this
capacity for two years, and was then
employed by Leon la Feavier, another
prominent Colorado ranchman, for sew
eral years. He then went into the
cattle business for himself in 1878 at
South Deer Greek, Colo. He continued
business there in partnership with his
brother. John, now a prominent bust
ness man in Denver, from 1874 until
1882. Then after a trip east he came
to Spring City, Sanpete county, en-
gaging in the cattle business, and re-
manned there until ten years ago. when
he removed to the Book Mountain
country, in what is now Grand county,
where he was killed.

SEVEN THOUSAND SHEEP SOLD
BIG STOCK TRANSACTION IN
STRAWBERRY VALLEY.
Dipping Pens at Coalition Have Been
Enlarged For Two Hundred Thou
sand Head of Sheep Each Season.

Price, Utah, Aug. 29.-Michael Hol-
land. the largest Individual owner of
sheep in eastern Utah, this week sold
his herd to fancy Bros, the deal hav-
ing been closed I'D in the Strawberry
valley country, where the parties are
at present arranging the details of the
transfer. There are about 1000 head
in the different herds which are graz
ing in Carbon and Utah counties. The
price paid is So per head, all lambs in
Guided. so that the amount involved In
the deal will be over $4,000. Parties
in from the camp where the new own
ers are at the present time say that a
greater portion of the flock will be
driven into the corral at Coalition. for
merly known as Pleasant Valley juno
ton, to be shipped TO the eastern mar
kets. In this connection it may be
news to readers of The Herald to know
that c. NJ. Mhler. who has the dipping
corral there, has so ENLARGED his pens
that he will be able to accommodate no
less than 10000 head of sheep each
year. Owing to this fact Coalton is
becoming the main shipping point of
sheep for eastern and southeastern
Utah, and in consequence most all the
Zig foclks are driven to that point to
be put aboard the cars.
During the past ten days there has
been no less than dozen buyers of
sheep in this country, and it is expected
that the sale above noted is only one
OF the many that will be contaminated
in the near future. This, however, is
the biggest price that has been paid
here in several years. r. q. Miller, the
largest owner of sheep in Carbon
county. has been out on the range for
several days. and says that his tiocks,
along with others he saw while away,
are in the best condition for years, and
for the first time since ne engaged in
the industry here some 13 years ago, he
sees a good profit in sight for owners.
Taken altogether, stock generally were
never in better condition all around.

AMENDMENT TO THE BYLAWS.
a Small Cloud of Discord Causes
Strife In the Pit.

Strife In the Pit.
Yesterday the members of the min
Ing stock exchange voted on the pro-
posed amendment to the bylaws of the
organization. the object being to pro-
vide for the annual election of a treas
urer, secretary and caller, instead of
leaving the appointment of these Off
GERS to the governing board as hitherto
Before the amendment could be voted
on, however, a motion was made that
the resignation of Caller c. E. Hudson,
posted few days previously, be acted
the resignation on the table, the
amended motion being unanimously
carried.
The subject of the amendment to the
constitution was then taken up and
put to a vote, which stood 10 for and
IA against, the majority being in IA
vor of its enactment, but as it requires
q two-thirds vote to change or amend
constitution, the proposition was lost.
Considerable feeling, although well
suppressed, attended the proceedings,
as without doubt personal matters gov
erned those who were for or against
the proposed amendment.
Immediately after the call the gov
erning board held a meeting, but as it
was not a properly called meeting, no
definite business was transacted, al
though the removal of the caller was
the topic of discussion. AS a conse-
quence, the statement by the News
that such action had been taken was
erroneous.
After the members of the exchange
had twice tabled Mr.. Hudson's resig-
nation, it is hardly possible that the
governing board would undertake to
remove him from the office, as the ac-
ton of the board in all matters is sub
ject to the approval of the exchange
and recent events would indicate that
Mr. Hudson's friends and supporters in
the pit are in the majority.

UTAH SUGAR STOCK.
Rapid Advances Noted In This Popu-
lar Investment Security.


There was a quiet but persistent de-
mend on the curb yesterday for the
stock CT the Utah Sugar company,
operating in Utah valley, at Lehi.
In the morning the stock was wanted
at 5000. but later on it was sought for
at $1,000. being a rapid advance, as
this security was only quoted at IS
share two months ago. and as it is at
par at $40. it can readily be seen that
it is flying skyward at a rapid rate,
the jump presumably being caused by
the fact that the beet crop is unusually
heavy this season, in consequence of
which the stockholders look for in
creased dividends.
The digging of the beet crop will be-
gin next week. Monday, and three Gays
after the factory will begin turning
out sugar.
The beet sugar industry has been
eminently successful in Utah, and the
day is not far distant when the home
production of this commodity will equal
the demand

FELL DOWN THE SHAFT.
Terrible Death of Frank Sando In tn,
Alice Mine.

Terrible Death OF Frank Sando In the
Alice Mine.
The Butte Iatermountain of the 9th
reports a terrible fatality in the Alice
mine, as follows:
Frank Sando, q young man who had
a lease on a portion of the Alice mine,
met horrible death late yesterday af-
ternoon by falling a distance of 200
feet
Sando and Richard Gartrell were
partners. They had a lease on a por-
ton of the 100-foot level Yesterday
afternoon they went down to the 800
for the purpose of returning some tools
belonging to another crew of leasers.
After transacting their business, they
started to take the cage at the 300.
Gartrell and Sando entered the cage,
which is protected with sheetiron sides.
Sando gave the signal to hoist to the
100, and a second later, seeing a pros
pecting pick on the station floor. he
stopped down TO pick it up AS he did
so the cage started upward, and Sando
was unable to regain his balance. He
was evidently struck by the station set
ana thrown into the shaft.
When the cage reached the top an
alarm was given, and a party of min
ers went down to the 1000 level, where
there is a bulkhead in the shaft
Sandos body was found at this point
in a terribly mutilated condition. The
body was crushed almost beyond recog-
milton, and every bone broken. The
head was almost severed from the
body. The dead mans watch was found
at the 500.
The body was removed to the sur
face and Coroner Tremblay's deputy
and Mine Inspector Byrne summoned.
Later in the evening it was removed to
Richards undertaking rooms.
Sando was only 10 years of age, and
resided in Walkerville with his father,
who is an old employee of the Alice
company. The young man only took
the lease which cost him his life about
two weeks ago.
An inquest will be held this evening
at s o'clock
