This group is situated about seven
miles west of the Copperopolis, but
in a different district and entirely dLf-.
ferept formation. The region contains
gold rather than copper The Trilby
mine, which is employing about forty
men, is four miles north of the Win
tiers group.
This group was sold for cash IN the
middle of June to a Mr.. Young from
Colorado Springs. Little development
work had been done The ledge at the
surface was four feet wide and showed
good sprinkEng of free gold, but
there were no definite indications TO
commend the property to purchaser.
The portion of the ledge just encoun-
tered is not contained in a pocket, but
it is true vein. This is Mr.. Young's
first experience in mining He enjoys
an immense income derived from an
international patent for bicycles and
he is willing to employ a large amounS
of money in the White Picacho region
if the properties show up well enough
to justify it,

THAT is a new district, and although
the prospects look like good ones we
have heretofore been unable to inter
est capital. The people there are now
looking to Mr.. Young to develop their
properties, and | have no doubt that
we will have good camp SOON"
Mr.. Trefeddig and Joe Prince were
the first men to do much prospecting
in that district. A few prospectors
have been over the ground and recog-
niZed mineral, but the region seemed
remote. 1t is described by people
who have been shere recently as an
extremely wild place, hidden miles
away from any indication of civiliza-
ton. Mr.. Trefeddig says that he was
at work sinking shaft few months
ago when three deer came to within
a few feet of him. They were not the
least alarmed at his presence He
work and watched them
browsing for an hour before they
leisurely went away. The sight OF
deer e. close range is common.
This new region, though, is becom-
ing better known. There are three

TOO MUCH LIGHTNING
Railway Power House Sill Feeling

! The city railway power house has
not yet recovered from an accident
on the night of The electrical display.
1t is customary in times of such dis
turbances for the engines to be

/ danger of lightning The men were
just getting things in readiness to
close down when something unusual
was discovered in one of the gen
orators. The burning of a field or ar
mature is usually the resuFz of an
overcharged machine, but in this in
stance there was nothing out of the
ordinary apparently, except that the
machine failed to generate power
only one car WAS running ON the line
until noon Thursday, when connec-
tons were made with another dy-
namO. In the meantime an invest:ga-
ton has been made of the disabled
one. The electrician has concluded
that magnetic pole has been depolar-
lied and an effort will be made early
this morning to adjust it While the
electrical disturbance was greatest on
Wednesday night, balls of fire were
seen coursing along the trolley wire
Should one of these heavily charged
balls find its way 30 the power house,
more than likely it would be attended
with disastrous results to the machin-
cry Lightning arresters do not al
ways ward off the danger. But there
IS not great deal of danger 20 pas
sengers riding on the cars. The heavy
electrical charge may follow down the
trolley pole, IN which case it will like
" disable the machinery. An in
stance is recorded on the line here
of one of the balls flashing along the
entire distance of the line and dis
abling every motor, Cbstructing the
car service for several days. Dis
turbances like Wednesday night are SO
unusual that the men at the power
house were hardly prepared for it.
They have received orders that in
case of a similar storm to shut down
entirely This is the only safe plan,
and although inconvenient to passen-
gers, is universally practiced by cleo

THERE is HOPE ATeHOnE
That The Grand Canyon Will Give
Up Russell.

| A dispatch from Syracuse. Neb-,
says regarding W. Frank Russell, the
Syracuse capitalist, who was recently
lost N the Grand canyon:
1T is not believed that Russell
is dead, but that he has managed to
reach a rock or the cliff-like side Of
the canyon and is there awaiting res
cue. HIS companions are preparing to
make an effort to save his life. 1t IS
impossible for him to escape without
assistance. even if he has not yet per-
ished
Russell was prospecting with A. B..
Gibson and Charles H. Gibson, repre-
sentatives of a New York syndicate,
and George D. Roberts. expert mining
engineer; T. A. and George Fleming
and w w Bass. the guide. They were
at the foot OF Bright Angel trail and
there the entire number made an ef-
fort to cross the Colorado in a can
vas boat.
THE craft capsized and all man
aged 10 reach the shore and escape
but Russell. who was carried into the
canyon and beyond the sight of has
companions He was clinging to the
wreck of the boat. and the guide be-
lieves he managed to escape into the
precipice-like sides Of the canyon,
where he is awaiting rescue. He can
have nothing to eat but pnjckly pears,
lizards and frogs until rescued.
To-day the party was to make an
effort to go through the canyon on a
great raft, and equipped with ropes
and a grea. horn to attract Russell's
attention if he is still alive. Boats

a NEW GOLD STRIKE
Some Facts Regarding The white
PiCaCho District.

C. j. Trefeddig, who is interested in
the White Pioacho mining district, is
in town and brings news of a strike
on group of claims, formerly owned
by James Winters and known as the
Winters group. A rich body of ore,
mostly gold, was encountered four
days ago If the present indications
of continuity of the vein are reliable,
the Winters group Will receive a great
deal of attention from mining men.
The shaft had been sunk only sew
enty feet when the ledge narrowed
from four feet to three feet. But the
ore increased greatly in richness and
the vein soon wtdened to three and a
half feee. IN the sinking Of the
seventy-fOot shaft the hanging wall
was lost. No assays have been made
of the newly found ore. but it is es-
timated that two-tEirds of i will carry
from $50 to 800 in free milling ore
The balance IS base, running about L
per cent copper, but il also carries i
great deal Of gold. Mr. Trefedd g
says II is nothing unusual to pick up
Iiece of rock the size OF a hat which
split open with a pick shows SIDES lit
orally lined with gold. From this
ledge toward the hanging wall is con-
siderable country ore, which is also
impregnated with gold. This indi-

pay streak will widen with depth to

CHOP LEES OBSERVATIONS
On Men who Neglect TO pay Their
Honest Debts.

Chop Lee, the head of the great Salt
Attorney George P. Billiard yesterday
with bill for $3.50 against a man
who. having exhausted his credit with
the trust. fatty gave out that he
would not pay The bill
The attorney told Chop Lee that the
will was not collectable and explained
to him the operation of the exemption
law under which a man in Altoona
heed not pay his debts until he gets
rich and can do it without hurting
himself. Chop Lee sWore awhile in
pigeon English and said: This man
(meaEing the man who owed him) is
good Clistian an me dam heather.
This Melliky gleat place. 1t makes
laws to make ,rascals.' Chop Lee
went on to say that there were no
deadbeats in China. They were not
encouraged by law there A man
couldn't possibly keep his head on his
shoulders and neglect to pay his debts.
Chop Lee IS something of a modern
Confucius. He got 0philosophizing
something which his countrymen in
this country do not often indulge in.
He said that the man who owed him
$3.50 couldn't look him in the face.
Chop Lee said he was nch enough to
look the whole world in the face like
the Village Black Smith, of whom
perhaps he had never heard. At the
conclusion of his observations Chop
Lee was considerably softened. He
said he felt sorry for the man who
wouldn't pay him and who was there

son at Zamboango, island of Mindanao,
in which two Spanish officers and three
men were wounded and one man was

1T is very painful to us to have suf-

does not belong to U.S. We left these
troops in the Philippines In the hope
that they might aid in securing the re-
lease of Spanish prisoners IN the hands
of the Filipinos. Our efforts in this
direction have been fruitless. Aguin-

Frenchman IN. Dumarais) who had
offered on our behalf to treat with the
enemy was killed by them.
American has not yet succeeded, as
she has no more authority than we had.
We can not leave troops any longer in
a territory that we are not obliged to
defend, and l have telegraphed General
Rios to use three steamers for the i'm
mediate transportation of our troops
from Zamboanga and Yolo, and to ac-
quaint Major General Otis with those
instructions, so that heAmerican COM
mander may possess the territories we
are abandoning"
The Filipino committee has issued a
manifesto to the press declaring that
the Filipino government" will reject
all negotiations for peace on the part
Of the Americans based upon any
scheme of autonomy, and will demand
that the United States fulfill the en-
gagement made before the declaration
of war with Spain.
The manifesto denies that General
Antonio Luna has surrendered, and as
serts that Major General Lawton is
routed and that the hospitals are FILL
ed with Americans, hundreds Of whom
are insubordinate"
