c. z. Thum, receiver of the banking
house of c. Bunting & Co. of Black
foot, Ida, has entered suit against
Daniel Wolstenholme to recover $50, 200.
In the complaint it is alleged that the
plaintiff was appointed receiver of the
bank, which failed on Feb. Is. 1897;
that Charles Bunting was the general
manager and vice president of the
bank, and that on May 16, 1897. Bunt-
ing died. 1t is then alleged that on
Nov. %, 1894, Bunting insured his life
in the New York Life Insurance COM
pany for $4,000, payable to his estate
in the event of his death, and that he
paid the premiums, amounting to S5,11O
from the funds of the bank, and prior
to the payment of the last premium he
assigned the policy to Daniel Woisten-
holme, his brother-in-law; but the
policy was not delivered to Wolsten-
holme during Bunting's life, and that
WolstenhOlme paid no consideration
whatever for it. Wolstenholme, it is
alleged, procured the policy from the
papers of Bunting after Bunting'S
death, and collected the $4,000 from
the insurance company.
1t is claimed that in equity and good
conscience the money belongs to the
bank, and the plaintiff as receiver of
the institution demands judgment for
the amount against Wolstenholme.

It is an old saying that Virtue vii
have its own reward" and it is safe
to say that the truisrn also applies tC
perseverance, untiring application and
steadiness of purpose that knows nc
yielding.
At least this often applies in mining
operations, and The Herald is pleased
to state that this is the case with the
Cannon Mining company. operating in
Mercur, and that, after several years
OF hard work and the expenditure Of
$40 900 in clean cash fine body OF high
grade milling gold ore has been uncov-
cred in the mine, the discovery of which
settles beyond doubt the outcome of
the enterprise, and places the Cannon
on the list as one of the coming dlvl-
dend-payers of this wonderful gold
camp.
The Cannon mine, embracing SO Is
acres, adjoins the Mercur mine on the
east and the Golden Gate on the south
east. Four years ago it was held under
lease and bond by J. r. Walker, jr.,
but later on was Incorporated, consid-
cradle work having been done in its
development, but without disclosing the
sought-for ore bodies. Later ION John
Treweek obtained a bond on the ground
for $500, 600; the option being thrown up
after another search had been made
for the hidden mineral zones, but with
out success. Later still, not more than
three months ago, G. II. Schue and his
associates secured a bond on the prop
erty, but the same was given up soon
after, owing, il is stated. to a disagree
ment as to where operations should be-
gin in the exploration OF the property.
Three weeks ago the Cannon COM
pany resumed operations, and with
force of three men began work in the
drift that had been driven from the
shaft on the 390-foot level.
This drift had been run 400 feet east
of the shaft, when a turn was made TO
the southeast, and the workings ex-
tended 200 feet further, at which point,
according to advices received yester-
day from Angus II. Cannon, the presi-
dent OF the company, a magnificent
body of ore, 20 feet thick, was encount-
cred Thursday, which assays $14.50 in
gold TO the ton, the mineral being high
~ oXidized.
On Tuesday, Mr.. Cannon says, the
values ran 81 to the ton. On Wednesday
this valuation was raised to s., and
on Thursday the heart of the manage
ment was made glad By the disclosure
of a solid BODY of mineral as above
stated, which, by tests made on several
samples showed values which should
give the mine rank as one of the rich
est properties in the camp.
The discovery of an ore body in this
locality certainly means much for the
non-prOductive mines in the immediate
vicinity, and would indicate that the
Golden Gate Extension is on the same
zone, and it also proves to a certainty
that the mineral belt of the camp is
much greater than at first supposed.
In any event, the discovery is a great |
thing for the company, and fully settles |
its fueure, while il gives to Mercur an /
other producer and dividend-payer.
The Herald congratuiates Mr.. Cannon |
and the company on their good fortune, !
which is well earned and well deserved. T

how soon it regulates the bowels and
clears the whites of the eyes of that vel
low jaundiced look. Another witness Of
its invigorating capacity that may es-
cape the notice of persons not accus-
toned to ordinarily employing this test
is its effect on the pulse. Observe the

she leads a more confined, mOnotonOus

Paine's celery compound is just what
such nervous, depressed persons need
to restore their nerves to energy and
to lift them out of their colstipated,
dyspeptic habit of body.
Paine's celery compound counteracts
the exhausting strain of work by it's
strong inducement to the delicate It's
sues to take more food. 1t plainly in
duceS the nerves and brain to feed
themselves more literally, and has
thus saved countless men and women
from chronic neuralgia, rheumatism,
sleeplessness and failing mental power.
No remedy has been discovered so
rich in fiesh-forming and energy-pro-
ducing constituents as Paine's celery
compound.

CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS.
STRENGTH OF LOCAL SOCIETY
AWAKENS INTEREST.
Membership So Large That It Was
Deemed Necessary to Erect a
Church-The Regular Meetings
and Sunday School Services.

Purely as a matter of news, the an
nouncement in The Herald that the
| Christian Scientists of Salt Lake has
commenced actual work on a fine
church building, has created general in
! terest. The public was not aware that
the society had become so strong here
The movement was inaugurated in Salt
Lake by Mrs. Laura LathrOp of New
York, who came here in 1889 and taught
two classes for a time. In May 1891,
the scientists organized, commencing
with 13 active members. Meetings were
held at the home of Mrs. T. d. Kim
ball, and Mrs. NJ. a. Bagley was the
first pastor, or speaker, as she was
called. Some eight months later the
society moved into the old I. O. o. F.
hall on Main street. and in 1898 took up
quarters in the new Odd Fellows hall
on Market street, remaining there I'M
til May. 1896. when the Jewish syna5
gOgue was leased and where meetings
are still held.
Mrs. A. F. De Long succeeded Mrs.
Bagley as speaker, and was succeeded
by Mr.. L. s. Coates, who was the
speaker until the summer of 1895. In
that year the head of the society was
changed from a speaker to two read
erS, Mr.. Coates being the first and
Mrs. F. D. Kimban the second, and they
still hold those positions.
The scientists hold three services
weekly now. On Sunday at II a. M,
reading service is held, preceded by
Sunday school, and on Thursday at
p. m, an experience meeting is held.
At the Sunday morning service the
first reader gives passages from the
Bible. and the second reader from Mrs.
Eddy's Science of Life" the aim be-
ing to present the Biblical and scientific
sides of the question. The Sunday
school lessons are taken from the in
ternational Sunday school leaflets, such
as are in general use. but are studied
and discussed from the Christian Sci
ence standpoint.
The association now numbers 215
members, and about 200 who are not
members attend regularly, so that the
audiences are very large. The attend
ance at Sunday school averages from
100 to $50 children.
In addition to the two readers the
society has a board of directors and L
Sunday school teachers.
A free library is now maintained by
the scientists at the Atlas block

BIG PARK CITY DEAL.
Negotiations Pending For the Pur-
chase of Mining Claims.


1t has been some time since Park
City has furnished the material for a
big mining deal, but The Herald is in
formed that a transaction was being
closed up last night involving the
transfer of a large area OF gilt-edged
property situated between the Silver
King and the Creole mines, the prop
erty in question embracing the claims
belonging to the Kentucky and Typo
groups-22 locations in all.
The deal has been in contamination
for some tine and is being backed by
a strong Michigan syndicate, it being
understood that the purchase price is
in the neighborhood of S150.000, and
this should increase the circulation me-
dunn of this section, as this is lot a
bond proposition but a cash deal, the
money to be paid upon the signing of
the papers.
As many Herald readers well know,
this property is most favorably 10
Gated and is probably the cream of the
undeveloped ground in that locality.
being enVironed on one side by the
great Silver King mine and on the other
by the Creole, there being but little
doubt in the minds of expert miners
but that ths intervening space between
these two properties covers an extern
sion of the Silver Kings immense min
eral deposits, as we'll as a continuation
of the leoges showing in the Creole,
and with development this ground
should make a record as one of the
heavy producers of the camp.
The % claims are all patented, so that
there is no question of title, in conse-
quence of which the new purchasers
can plan extensive work and develop
ment with a clear understanding and
conception of what the future has in
store for them, and it is stated that it
is the intention to put in a steam hoist
q once. employ a large force, and in
augurate active and extensive opera
lions.
A number of Salt Lake people are
interested in the deal, and coming so
closely on the heels of the proposed
Alliance Crescent Wasatch consolida-
ton one is led 10 believe that there
is some connection between the inter-
ested parties TO these transactions, as
the properties mentioned embraced
nearly all the ground between the Sill |
Yer King and Crescent mines.

items being that a stamp and combina-
ton MILL with a daily capacity of not
less than 100 tons will be built for the
treatment of the many thousands of
tons of good milling ore already block
ed out IN the property.
AS IS well known, there are three par

THE GOLDEN GATE MILL.
The Gigantic Plant Nearly Ready For
Effective Work.

Mercur, Feb. 25.-The mill is reach
ing the stage where progress is slow
1t being impossible to find places fol
many -mec to work. The men who
were engaged in building the frame
work are busy taking down their der
ricks, etc, and loading them on the
cars, their work being completed. The
| bridge between the incline and the TOP
of the ore bins is finished, and the cars
in place. The large air compressor
steam hoists, etc, are ready, the tanks
are receiving the finishing touches, the
roasters will be ready for business in a
few days.
The electric power is on hand, and the
various machines are being tried as
soon as they are ready. so that by the
time the final touches are made the
mill will start out without delay.
Today the large compressor was put
in motion. This machine will furnish
air. at pressure Of so pounds per
square inch, in sufficient quantities to
run all the drills in the mine. The pom
derous machine moved off in good style,
and the test was highly satisfactory.
AT the same time the hoists were put
in motion. There are two HOSTS which
will be used in bringing the ore from
the bottom of the mine, and a third
one will be used in hosting the men,
tools. exc.
The two monster Gates crushers are
in place, and six sets of Cornish rolls
occupy two floors. The screws are also
in place, and the elevators will be COM
pletec IN a few days.
The tanks have all been tested, and
places that showed signs of leaking
have been fixed. The false bottoms are
being covered with gravel of three diff
ferent sizes. the finest being more of
a coarse sand than a gravel, and so
close that it will be impossible for any,
thing except the solution to find it's
way through.
The gas plant is finished, and in all
the other departments there is but
little more left to do. Up to the pres
ent time visitors have been allowed to
come and go as they pleased, but it is
understood that after Sunday it will
be harder to obtain permission to go
through the structure.
The company houses along the gulch
are being moved up on the schoolhouse
hill, in order to make room for Dump
ing, as we'll as to be out of the way of
caving ground when the work COM
mences.
Mr.. Eyer, a prominent mine owner of
Bingham, has secured control of the
Gold King group, near Manning. and
proposes TO do considerable work there
A cook house and bunk house have been
erected, and a tunnel is being run into
the hill. Mr.. Eyer thinks that when he
has reached a sufficient depth he viii
tap the same strata in which the Mer-
cur ore IS found, and sees no reason
why as large mines may not exist near
Manning as elsewhere in the district. /
He proposes to keep his men at work
until he finds the ore, or is convinced
that it cannot be found in the ground. /

gaining in strength with depth.
On the middle vein drifts have been
run from the lower tunnel level for a
distance of 500 feet, blocking out inn
mense quantities of good milling min

that the average values range from $l2

cellent values in the white metal.
In the upper workings mountains of

THE LULU TRAMwAY.
Work to Begin In Making Additions
to the Marion Mill.

Joe Dederichs. the well-known mill
builder, viii go out to Mercur this
morning for the purpose of beginning
work on the construction of the tram
way which is TO be utilized in the
transportation of ore from the mouth
of the Lulu tunnel, a portion of the
workings in the Mercur mine. to the
Matte ore bins, on a spur of the Salt
Lake & Mercur railroad.
Mr. Dederichs has the contract for
the installation of this plant, the con-
tract for the machinery equipment
having been let TO Trent & Bro. of
this city.
The distance from the mouth of the
Lulu tunnel to the Matte ore bins is
500 feet, there being quite an elevation
between the latter and the former, on
