the last sad tributes of respect to the
one whom they loved SO well. At the
house ON School street, Prof. Porter
offered prayer and at the chapel the
services were conducted by Rev. Garter,
Gr Eaton and DIR. Leavitt. Many words
of tender sympathy were spoken to the
oereaved relatives and friends, while the
noble, beautiful Christian life called
forth words Of sincerest praise for she
who lived rot in length of days but in
deeds in the hearts of others. Her noble
Christian attributes manifested them
selves in the eegerness to aid others,
for she would as willingly ride many
miles that she might sing to the lowly
and humble people of missionary set

who is under quarantine at his home,
COG East Fourth street, is reported by
DR.. Stephens as being in a fair way
to recover. He has had a severe at
tack of the disease. but seems to be
getting on splendidly. Yesterday it
was reported about the city that proper
quarantine precautions were not being
taken and that children from the quar-
antined premises are being permitted
to run about the. neighborhood. In
regard to the report DR. Stephens said
last night:
There is no truth whatever in it.
All due precautions are being taken.
The two guards we have there are sober
and watchful men and will permit
nothing of the kind. Then. too, there
are no children in the family. There
are in the quarantined house five peo-
ple-three women and two men. They
will remain there until the quarantine

By Christmas it is expected money
the Gold Coin Mining and Milling COM
pany. and those familiar with the COM
pany's affairs believe the mine will re-
sumo work the first of the year.
Because of the fact that the direc-
tors of the company are scattered
through many Eastern states negotia-
tfons looking to an adjustment of all
difficulties have been slow. Assur-
ances were given yesterday, however,
that the matter is about settled.
An indication of the companys in
tention to work the property is con-
tanned in the orders received here by
telegraph yesterday from the Eastern
directors. The company owns about
20 claims in the district near Gold Coin,
many of which claims have not been
represented this year. Telegraphic or
ders came yesterday to do the repre-
sentation work on these at once. Men
will be sent out to-day from here for
that purpose.
A deal of great Importance to the
company was closed UP yesterday. Tt
will be remembered that last June the
company ecoN q oohu pit lLC my SloilNb

claims adjoining the Gold Coin mine,
the sum of the bond being $4,000. Four
thousand dollars was paid down on the
bond. All summer the mill has been
running on Keystone rock. Yesterday
the bond expired and was not taken
up by the company.
To preserve the company's interests,
however, individual owners of the Gold
Coin, Eastern men whose names could
not be learned last evening. purchased
yesterday the interests of Malachi
Sheehan and Alexander Fraser in these
claims. These interests amount to one
half of the keystone. one-fourth of the
Sunnyside, one-fourth Of the Venus
and one-fourth Of the Red Rose. The
deeds have not yet gone on record and
1t is not known what the exact amount
paid was.
That the creditors of the mining
company have faith in the promises
to pay all claims is shown by the fact
that they have consented to the with
drawal of the keeper placed there un-
der the attachments, and the company
is now in charge of the property.
