CENERAL MILEs cHEERED

Cambridge, Mass, March 22.-Gen-
eral Miles addressed the students Of
Harvard university this evening under
the auspices Of the Harvard club. The
theater was crowded and the students
welcomed General Miles and President
Elliott with deafening cheers.
General Miles remarks were purely
impersonal and contained no reference
to the recent war or the controversy
of the war management.
President Elliott, however, made an
impressive eulogy of the man, who, as
he said, had shown the same courage
and fortitude under calumny and mis-
representation as he had shown in
camp and battle. President Elliot's
words made a great impression on the
audience, whose sympathy was plain
ly manifested.

URIED MEN
Leadville Miners Released After Thir-
teen Days of Captivity.

Leadville, Colo, March 22.-After
thirteen days spent in a living tomb
Charles Reuss and Bert Frey are once
more free, and greeting the friends who
have been so anxiously waiting and
working for their rescue.
Thousands of people tonight crowd
around the mouth of the Bon Air shaft
to greet the men upon their release.
When at IL o'clock the prisoners, one
after the other were hoisted up the res
cue shaft, cheers from the crowd rent
the air and whistles from the mines
near and far Joined in welcoming the
men back to their frietnds.
For las feet the rescue shaft was
sunk to get beyond the cave-in that
prevented the men from reaching the
surface. Two unsuccessful attempts
were made to get below the mass of
rock filling the old shaft. Tonight the
third attempt was made and this was
successful.

NOT DEAD YET.


The following is taken from the Den
yer Republican:
John Murchland, the Colorado man
whom a Wyoming dispatch to the Re
publican reported as cut to pieces by a
rotary snow pillow, near Lookout, ap-
peared in Denver yesterday and pro-
tested that he was never more alive in
his life.
"Ye see," he said laconically, "t'want
me that was killed at all. l was SHOW
elm with the gang up to Harper's, and
they got me mixed up with another fell
low"
How did it happen that they got
you mixed up" was asked.
We'll, ye see, twas this way: I've
got a nephew hat was goin' to school
up to Harper's, and he got an idea that
he wasn't treated right, so he lit out
fer home. Well, he and another fellow
was agoin' along up the track to Look
ont and a rot'ry come a-whizzin' along
a-spittin' and a THROWN snow around
like fury. Ed and to'ther fellow didn't
hear it till too late to get off the track,
and first thing they knew it bucked into
Ed and knocked him into a bank, and
picked the other fellow up and whirled
him into mince meat so as nobody
would know him."
The man stopped and thought-fully
contemplated the ceiling while he
twirled his ear cap in his big hands.
WELL" said the reporter.
well pretty soon the gang come
along and found Ed LYNN there dead,
and KNOWN he was my nephew, why,
they s'posed the other mar vas me-"
How did you feel when you read the
notice of your death in the paper" ask
ed the reporter.

"It made me feel pretty dam queer" he
said.

ELECTRICITY USED IN GUNNIsoN,

ELECTRICITY USED IN GUNNISON.
Gunnison, Colo, March 22.-The
GunnisOn Light and Water Company
experimental successfully today with a
new electrical process for thawing out
frozen water pipes.
Electrician Meyer has been studying
the method for TWO weeks, and when
the new converter arrived yesterday
he was ready to put it t a test. Wires
were attached and a current started
through two services which have been
frozen for some time. In just four
minutes after the current was turned
on the water flowed in one of the SER
vices. In all six mains were thawed
out.
Gunnison is the first town in the
state to adopt electricity for thawing.
1t will be a great saving to consumers
and to the ate company.

demonstrated by experts after the min
ing season had closed or the parties
had shut down work, by some mem
bers of the corporation owning the
property. AS the property was under
bond during the working days of last
year, it is believed that the manager
in charge of the placer mine had full
knowledge Of the fact that it was done
for the ulterior purpose OF giving the
property a BLACK eye thereby caus-
ing a RECESSION Of the contract; and if
possible secure the property for a less
price. The scheme, however, did not
work, the manager having been de-
tected as well as exposed. There is no
doubt about the richness of the ground
of this company, and it covers an area
of something over 1000 acres, right in
the heart of the placers of the Medicine
Bow range. Active work will COM
mence on this property as early as
April 10th, continuing with vigor
throughout the mining season. The
company owning the property will have
the work conducted under the auspices
Of a man whom they can trust and ma
turally expect good and satisfactory re-
suits.
Charles B. Richie has made a valu-
able discovery of a copper mine on
Douglas creek, which has been devel-
Oped by a shaft to the depth of about
t~hirty-siX feet, and at that depth shows
a vein of copper said to be eleven feet
wide and returning by mill test $27 in
copper and SIS in gold. Colorado par
ties are after this property, and will,
no doubt, get an option in a very few
days.
1t would appear from the W above
instances that your people have an eye
to business and have men in the field
watching al opportunity TO pounce
down upon anything of value found
in Wyoming, and | don't know but
what, if ever We are to develop our
mining resources, wide-awake Colorado
men and their capital will have to
largely assist in doing it. Anyway, the
average Wyomtngite, engaged in min
ing, will welcome anybody who has the
brain, capital and grit to tackle Wyo-
ming's hidden resources.
Should the syndicate, which is said
to have secured the great soda lakes,
lying twelve miles southwest from Lar
annie, invest the $500, 900 which it is
said to have raised, in a large plant for
the purpose of converting the crude
soda into commercial material, it will
give a great impetus to the develop
ment of this entire section of country
and no branch of industry will be more
materially blessed than that of mining.
1t is difficult TO tell how ~far-reaching
such an investment would become in
this particular locality, but everybody
interested in any enterprise, whatever
its character may be, are hoping that
the Chicago papers, which have so
largely advertised the prospectus of
this company, are not advertising a
fake.
For fear Of wearing out your readers,
| will close this letter, promising that
in the near future l will follow it with
another which will perhaps, prove more
interesting.

Mania, March 22.-Advices have been
received from Catbalogan, island of
Samar, showing that trouble with the
natives there is sure to occur. Head
quarters of General Lukbani, insurgent
leader, is at Catbalogan. The place has
been fortified to resist attack; women
ard children have been removed from
the town to safe places in the interior,
and General Lukbani declares he will
never surrender, but will burn the place
II necessary to prevent it from falling
into the hands of Americans. The sit
uation Of the foreigners in Catbalogan
is precarious. as the ~insurgente are
ugly and there is danger of the natives
attacking them.
1t is impossible for General Otis to
send troops from Manila to the island,
the situation here p%recluding any such
action. There is a great need for all the
troops now mere and those on the way,
and the smallness of the American
force renders extensive military move
ments, particularly in o%utlaying is
islands practically out of the question.
