The Logan Mine Yields Rich Returns to Its
Owners.
Notwithstanding the extreme secrecy
maintained by the owners, it is known
fact that the Logan mine at Sugar Loaf
is now demonstrating that it is the rich.
est mine in Boulder county.
Quietly but steadily the management
has been pounding away and raking in
rich returns from the property. Under
the ownership of Captain Coan and DR..
Everetts, the nine yielded large returns
but since the transfer to its present own
ers their success has been surpassed.
The close corporation of Pennsylvania
capitalists represented by T. X. Mann,
general manager OF the Culbertson mill,
has now full control OF the property and
II is said that they are securing regular
dividends.
The Logan is worked entirely from tun.
nels, the principal one being driven 600
feet and securing depth on the vein of
$50 feet. 1t is stateo on reliable author
liy that for the last Io6 feet, the
ore body in this tunnel has been con-
tinuous. During last month alone $40
pounds of high grade ore were shipped
which brought $500. In addition to
this several cars OF four ounce ore were
taken out. .....
The mine is worked by force of p
men under the superintendence of DIR.
Everetts. A contract has just been let
for driving another tunnel still lower on
the hill and when this is completed all
the tunnels will be connected by shafts
The contract calls for tunnel of 400
feet at the start and additional contracts
will be made when that is completed.

STEAL VALUABLE JEWELRY
RANSACK A HOUSE ON WASH
 INGToN STREET.

A brace of daring daylight burglars are , causing the police considerable un- easlness- They have been operating in the Western Addition and have already got away with considerable booty.
 Last Thursday afternoon they entered the residence of James Degan, at 291S Washington street, and stole jewelry and siverware valued at several hundred dol lars.
 An entrance was effected by prying open the side window with a jimmy
 The family had left the house shortly before O clock, and on their return sev- eral hours later, they found that burglars had paid them a visit. After forcing an entrance the desperate housebreakers in- vaded every room in the house breaking open trunks and bureaus Nand taking everything of value. A citizen who was passing the house a short time before the burglary, saw two well-dressed men standing across the street apparently en- gagged in earnest conversation. One of them, he claims, crossed the street and approached the house which was subse- quently entered. He rang the doorbell. and the citizen thinking he was a friend of the family, passed on. When he learned that the house had been entered he concluded that the two men whom he had seen were the burglars and lost no time in giving a description to the po- lice. Yesterday Mir. Degan visited police headquarters and gave a list of the ar ticles which were stolen. Two detectives were sent to make an investigation. but they failed to find a clew which would lead to the apprehension of the daring housebreakers
 It is believed that they are the same men who have been working in the West ern Addition.
 The captains of the different stations have been furnished with a description of them. and every effort will be made to run, them down.
 Edwin Cooper, who is stopping at the Russ House. last night reported to the police that his. room had been entered and considerable clothing had been taken. The thief had gained an entrance with the aid of a skeleton key.

The first event which was to have been a six-round con test between Henry Lewis and Frank Ely, was stopped in the third round by Sergeant Donahue, who, seeing that Ely who was as fat as a prize hog, was apt to be killed at any moment, wisely stepped into the ring and ordered the boxers to their dressing rooms.
 The managers of the club were eau toned that if they permitted untrained boxers to enter the ring again they would be debarred from giving future exhibi- tions.
