RAISED THE FIGURES ON A POOL
TICK EFT AND GOT CAUGHT,

A prominent citizen who occasionally
bets on blackboard horse races when not
busy clipping coupons from his govern
ment bonds or counting up the cash re-
ceipts of his business has lost confidence
in the honesty of a trusted boy. On Sat
urday he gave the boy IS with instruc-
tons to go to King & Lowry's pool room
and make with it a combination on three
horses on which he had a winning
"hunch." The boy had been doing more or
less business in this line for him and 9TH
ers and was often entrusted with consid
cradle money. Instead Of placing the en-
tire So as directed he called for a 81 COM
binat.on. as he believed that not all of
the animals selected by the bono holder
would win and the man would never
know the difference.
The amount figured S21.50 When the
total was announced by the ticket writer
the boy modestly said: The man who
about the half dollar business: just make
it the even $21.' The ticket man did as
directed and the boy took the ticket.
Then he drew his own pencil and added
a cipher to the $21 making it s210 and an
other cipher to the 81, the amount paid,
raising it to $40. He then carried the
ticket to the owner and told him the
horses looked so good he had added 81
of his own money and if the horses won
he would call for his share of the amount.
He had the other s. in his pocket. Con-
trary to the expectations Of the young
~tinancier, the three horses Won and the
man presented his ticket for $40 at the
pool room.
A comparison of figures on the ticket
and books showed hat those on the form
er had been raised from 81 to $40 paid in
and from $21 to $2l0 to be paid out. Thus
the boys manne of doing business was
exposed. He is not making any more
combinations for the coupon man.

per here and abroad is that the Anal
gamated Copper Co., was formed to con-
troll the mines and output, and in that
way the price of copper; and tnat it can
regulate productions; that the price of it's
stock at present. Is no indication of the
future Of the copper market, nor Of the
probability of the success Of the COM
pany's operations. At the same time they
do not believe that the price of copper
will be permitted to advance so as to
check consumption if it can be avoided.
They think that production can be regu-
lated to keep pace with consumption.
Hence they attach great Importance to
the recently reported shutting down of
the Parrot mine.

AROUND

Clancy Miner: Pending the arrival of
| Charles Gable and a party of capitalists
| from Boston, who are now daily expect
| ed. three men We're some weeks ago put
at work to definitely trace the B. and G..
lode. as it is called, through the three
claims owned by the mining company
| the B. and G. on the west, Eagles Nest
| and the Bland on the east. This work
| has been completed n was accomplished
| by cutting crosscut trenches through the
| top soil on each claim until the vein was
encountered. These renches average
from five to eight feet in depth and are
about so in number. In each one of them
the lode was crosscut: in a number of
them there is ore and in one of them a
! solid foot of splendid ore was found four
feet below the surface. This work has all
been we'll done and serves to show beyond
question the continuation of the great
vein a distance of $500 feet along the side
Of the mountain as nothing else would.
The shaft on the property is $50 feet
/ deep. From the bottom of it levels have
been run. the west one 440 feet. This level
shows two and one-half feet of ore in
the bottom of the drift. The east level is
21O feet in length and there is on an aver
age about is inches of ore in the bottom
of this drift. These levels have been
stopped as high as the ore assembled. at
times almost to the surface. and such
ore as was found to be of shipping char
acter sent to the smelter. The present
policy of the company is to run a tunnel
and penetrate his vein at about a depth
of 600 feet, develop it by adits either way
On the vein and abandon the present
workings on the hill which is very diff
cult to navigate with heavy ore wagons.
The old shaft will probably be made use
of as an air shaft when the proper con-
nections are made with it by upraises.
The second cleanup for this season was
made this week at Botkin's placers in
upper Lump gulch, and yielded IS ounces
of gold. The gold from this claim aver
ages about $15 to the ounce, therefore the
cleanup amounts to $685.. This cleanup
was also the result Of a Is days run with
three men. Messrs. James Botkin, l.. r.
Martinique and George Pennock. and is
an increase over the cleanup made about
two weeks ago of 1864. Up to the present
time the water supply has been very
plentiful, and although it now shows
signs of diminishing, there will be a good
head until the latter part of July. but the
mine will be kept in operation until the
weather. becomes too cold for placer min
ing, about the LIST of November. The out
put for the month amounts to 81 ,S26, a
/ very good record for three men, and one
of them with only one arm, Mr.. Botkin.
This is at the rate of $42S per month for
each man. 1t is this kind of work that
! keeps Montana we'll up toward the head
in the harvest of gold, and there are hun
dreds of gulches in the state. now idle,
that is properly opened could be made to
pay as well. Above the BOtkin ground
Jacob Fredericks is working quite a
| force of men, and the first claim below
is owned and operated by -. W.. Grim
nell. Neither of these outfits have made
a cleanup as yet this season.
