shipping carload of graphite from
his paint mine south Of town to the
Chicago Paint Company. who have
been making tests with it for year
and are anxious to know if he has a
large deposit of it, as it is the best
they have ever had. The mine is as
yet undeveloped, but the indica'
tions are that there is large ledge
of the graphite. Mr.. Chedic has
men at work at the mine and is in
hopes that it will eventually be quite
an industry. The only drawback is
the almost prohibitive freight rate,

During the absence of profess
sional barber Thomas Weldon has
opened the tonsorial parlor formerly
run by Ernest Paul. Samuel Fox,
the barber from Ely, has removed to
Cherry Greek and established his
business at the Pioneer saloon.
Pauls concentrating mill at Lane
City is being repaired preparatory
to starting up on ore from the Cham
pion mine. which is being worked
under lease by Messrs. Leabigh and
Wedekind. The ore as it comes
from the mine is OF a good grade,
but on account Of the high freight
rates and excessive smelter charges
the most Of it will not pay to ship in
it's crude state. By concentrating 6
two or more tons of ore into one
ton OF concentrates it will make
shipping very profitable.
II. jacobson. the genial CONNER
cial traveller, who arrived last even
ing from Eureka, is our authority
for the statement that Joseph Bray,

contracts have already been let for
the construction of machinery for
one of the largest smelters in the
West, to be erected in Ely. The

ties are looking out for Mr.. Bray
and hope to secure the hauling OF
the machinery over their road.

fendant came to her house. used in
decent language toward her, dis
turbed her peace and quietness by
prowling about her premises by
uight; and as she was afraid he
would do her bodily harm, asked to
have him bound over to keep the
peace. 1t appeared from the COM
plainant's story that defendant had
annoyed her by improper language
and conduct, but had not made any
direct threats to do her bodily harm.
Accordingly, the district attorney
suggested that as there was no posi-
tive evidence OF threats sufficient ia
bind him over, the defendant be dis
charged with a warning from the
court that he would receive nc
leniency if he continued his annoy
ance. The court, after reprimand-
ing him for his apparently uncalled-
for molestations, dismissed the case

look across the river on our left the

we reach what Is known as the De

fitting throne for Atlas, so grandly
massive are the pillars. Amidst all
this seeming recklessness of nature
and solemn grandeur of the place. the
ivy blooms in rich profusion, and the
laurel drops beneath the weight OF its
blushing blossoms. Ever and anon
springs of cool, clear water gush out
from between the rocks. and the
waters of North river ripple musical

ness and some times as If singing the
