Smith says the pocket is not by any
means exhausted. He says the pocket
may prove to be large one. as the
same character of rock continues.
They will lose no time in going
down on the vein, which varies in size
from one to four feet and all sufficient
ly mineralized to make it fine paying

porous and all of it carries more or less
free gold. The walls are granite and
porphry with cyanite and feldspar.

Work Ia Being Pushed.

Work is being steadily pushed at the
Mountain Lion mine, in Southern Ore
gon, owned by Bailey brothers, on
Missouri fiat, says the Rogue River
Courier. The lower tunnel has now
reached length of nearly 400 feet, and
it is expected that it will tap the ledge
inside of 40 or 50 feet farther. Through
out the whole course of this tunnel, the
rock has been easily worked and not
so hard but that good showing could
be made each day.
A flow of water almost sufficient to
run the mill is now coming from the
tunnel and it is expected that when the
vein is struck, the tunnel will yield an
ample water supply for milling pur.
poses. The ore at this mine carries
high values in gold, and the new tun-
mel will open large body of the ore.
The mine is we'll equipped with a
good stamp mill and is one of the very
best properties in that section.

Two New Lodges Opened.

The placer district in Southern Ore
gon is showing up some very fine prop
critics. In addition to the valuable
claims already under an advanced
state of development in the district and
which have been proved to be high
grade and permanent, Paul Scharing-
son is prospecting two new discoveries
which give promise of being no less
valuable than the Greenback or Brown.
ing veins.
One of these lodges is seven feet
wide, and though the ore is not high
grade as far as prospecting has yet
shown, still it is sufficiently mineral
lied for milling proposition.
There is $50 feet of tunneling and q
70-foot shaft on the other ledge. This
vein is about l8 inches wide. Consid-
cradle money has been taken from this
ledge with an arastar.

Outlook Is Bright.

A correspondent at Geiser, Or, writ
ing to the Baker City Democrat, says
the mines of the Empire Mining Com
pany are looking fine and the company
is planning for the erection of a mill.
The White Elephant owners are 60.
ing to build very soon.
The Bonanza mine has plenty of
good ore for its 40-stamp mill.
A 1912 nugget was picked up in the
placers of Austin, McMudre & Co., at
Winterville, near here, the other day.
The owners of these claims expect to
clean up $25.
They are working full crew on the
Black Bird and pushing development
as fast as possible.
With three or four mills in this camp
we will begin to have day.

TWO REPUBLIC MINES.
Active Work on the Quilp and on the
Knob Hill.

Active Work on the Quilp and ON the
Knob Hill.
Republic. June 14.-Work is &C
tive on the Quilp mine. The new ma
chine1y is giving satisfaction. Two
drills are making about five feet per
day. The compressed air hoist is work.
ing smoothly at the winze and good
progress will now be made in getting
out the ore for shipping. The shaft
will be extended to the 300-foot level
before cross cutting. The ledge en-
countered on this property has in
creased greater in width in proportion
to depth obtained in sinking than any
mine in the camp. In the tunnel it
measured 26 feet, at the 50-foot level
it was 80 feet wide, and at the 100-foot
level it was between 80 and 100 feet in
width. This is the largest body ore in
the camp and it is hard and clean.
At the 5O-foot level there is 30 feet of
ore that will average $l3 per ton. In
the lower levels the values are higher
somewhat. The new seven-drill COM
pressor is in operation and the COM
pany will be in position to ship 200
tons of ore day for an indefinite
period, if necessary. More men have
been put to work stopping in the tunnel
and each level. Thirty men are en-
ployed.
The survey has been completed for
the steam tram to be constructed up
the gulch, connecting the mines in the
vicinity for shipping to the mills.
The Quilp will furnish the new Repub-
lie mill with at least 100 tons day.
North of the Trade Dollar and east of
the Ben Hur is the Knob Hill, prop
e1ty supposed to be valuable. A cross
cut tunnel has been extended in the
hill $40 feet, where the ledge was
struck, and the indications are now
that they have a. fine property. A shaft
was sunk at the first where the vein
was found in place and an average OF
values obtained of $50 per ton at the
1O-foot level. The tunnel level is $50
feet from the surface and there are now
three feet of fine looking quartz that
should run even higher than in the
shaft. A drift north and south has
been started on the ledge.

LErKRUGER GO IN PEACE
Britain Will Place no Obstacles in the
Way of His Escape

London, Sept 21.-Some discussion
has been raised over the right of the
British government to intercept the
gold and public documents which Mr..
Kruger is reported to be anxious to
take with him to Holland. 1t is not
probable that any obstacle will be
placed in the way of his carrying off
anything he has with him. The Meth
erlands government has received from
the foreign Office assurances that
Kruger's journey will not be inter-
fered with by the British fleet. 1t is
probable that the amount of gold
which Kruger still retains has been
grossly exaggerated, and in any event
the ministry here will be greatly re-
lieved to have him leave the country
quietly. Moreover, there has always
been strong belief in official circles
here that Steyn and Reitz, rather than
Kruger, were responsible for the out
break of the war and that he was
dragged into it at the last moment
against his Judgment.

Suit Over a Tax Sale.

Owing to an unwillingness for some
reason to pay the personal property
tax assessed against him in March
1899 the authorities were forced to
levy on the personal property of Geo.

minor effects to be made without pro-
test, although the articles of course
brought but trife. The deputy
sheriff on the last day of August took
in Wards top buggy and this morn
ing sold it at public sale at the court
house for $40. Mr.. Ward this morn

TO CLEAN UP GALVESTON.
Estimated it Will Take $500 Men
one Month to do it.

Galveston, Texas, Sept. %. Sunday
was quietly spent in Galveston. The
contrast between today and the sun
day following the great storm, has
been almost as great as between the
Sunday after the storm and the pre-
ceding Sunday. Many people attend
ed church services and the day passed
without disorder or excitement. Gem
eral Scurry says Galveston is now a,
orderly as any city in the state.
Several times since the storm, rain
has come, but, fortunately for the
thousands OF people living in wholly
or partly unroofed houses, the show
ers have been light and of brief dura-
ton.
The payrolls for the laborers who
worked on the streets under the mili-
tary regime from SeptemberlS to Sep

per cent of the payrolls, at $3.50 pei

the streets of debris and dead bodies
In all, about forty bodies were TAX
ed from the ruins today Tomorrow
it is estimated $500 men will be at
work on the streets clearing the wreck

The plan to erect homes for those
who lost everything by the storm, Sc

with every encouragement. A large
fund is to be disbursed by Miss Bar

THEY HAVE No MONEY
Of The Kansas Fusion Parties Only
Democrats Have Funds

Topeka, Sept. 24.-It is reported in
fusion circles to-day that the two
taste committees will soon be called
together in joint session for the pur.
pose Of devising ways and means of
raising money to meet the expenses Of
the campaign. The Democrats are in
no especial need of funds, for they
have an allowance from the abund-
ance of their national committee, but
the Populist committee is wholly with
out means.
When the campaign opened the two
committees met and assessed their
candidates. Breidenthal, Botllin,
Frankes, Marshall and David Martin
were assessed 500 each, and the
others from 800 to 400. The only
Populist who has paid is Judge
Martin. who sent his check promptly.
All the Democrats have paid or
made arrangements pay, leaving
Breidenthal the candidate for COVER
nor, Harvey for Lieutenant governor,
Hamburger for state superintendent of
public instruction, Westgate for audi
tor and McNall for superintendent OF
insurance, delinquent. 1t is said that
Breidenthal and Harvey have begged

HEAVY AMERICAN LOSS
Killed, Wounded and Missing in Phil
ippines Number 100.

Manila, Sept. 23--The insurgent
demonstrations last week prove to
have been more extensive than was at
first reported. From Cagayan and
Isabella provinces and the northwest
ern districts of Luzon come accounts
of insurgent operations and American
precautionary measures. Merchants
in the province of Albany are getting
their hempto Manila as soon as posi-
BILE, fearing that otherwise it may be
burned by the insurgents.
At Iloilo there was considerable
anxiety lest an uprising should occur,
but the insurgents there are
ceasing their activity and re.
turning in white clothing to the gar.
risoned towns of the district. AS a
resumption of insurgent operations is
considered quite probable, the Ameri
cans there are taking the necessary
steps.
The American casualties in killed
wounded and missing in the last tel
days approach 100, including Siniloan
at the east end of Laguna de Bay
where the insurgents, after the engage
ment, delivered ten bodies of GU
dead
Documents captured in Manila sho,
that the insurgents activity in thi
vicinity was ordered by rebels here
