Otis Mowry came down from

fingers of his right hand dressed.
At noon Monday he put his
hand on the saw, while it was run

His fingers stuck to the saw, drag
ging his hand into contact with
the swiftly moving saw teeth,
cutting the end of his middle fin
ger off at the first joint, smoothe
and clean and decorating the
thumb, index finger and the one
next to the little finger. He is

places.

Mrs. P. P. Pardellian, of Hell
ena, Montana, was here the past
week. Her mission was to organ
ize a womens lodge of Women of
Wood Craft. She was successful
in her enterprise and on Saturday
night a number of Saratoga ladies
assembled in the Masonic hall and
organized the "Silver Circle
Camp the officers Of which are as
follows: Miss Margaret Andrews,
Past Guardian Neighbor, Miss
Maude Starr, Guardian Neighbor,
Miss Pearl Breese. Advisor, Mrs.
Frank White, Banker, Mrs. Har-
riet Deegan Clerk, Mrs. Ella We'll
ton, Magician, Mrs. Emma Wag-
oner, Attendant.
This is the first Camp organized
in this state. The order is a new
one, being not quite three years
old. 1t started IN California and
has been working its way east
gradually, this state marking the
eastern boundary of the progress
of the order up to this time. The
states included in tue work at this
time are California, Oregon,
Washington, Montana, Idaho and
Wyoming.
From this place Mrs. Pardellian
went to Rock Springs to organize a
camp at that place. The meet
ings of the Silver Circle Camp
will meet monthly and they hope
tosoon have their charter.

The editor of The sun is in re-
ceipt of a private letter from Null.
ford Haines from which he takes
the liberty of making a short ex-
tract, knowing that it will be
appreciated by all the readers of
this paper. The condition of
things he describes is 30 different
from what we have here that the
very contrast will make the mat
ter interesting. He says:

Post Office on Saver Y.

There is now at the post-office
here in this city, a petition to the
Fourth Assistant Pos tmaster Gen
eral, praying for the establish
ment of a post-efice on the Saw

ested in having a post-ofhce estab-

The missionary tea given by the
Ladies Aid Society in the Presby-
terrain church last Friday evening,
was a success, the house crowded
to its fullest capacity and the re-
ceipts netting the snug sum of
S25 so. The supper was good and
the entertainment pleasing. Lit
tie Russell Robinson brought down
the house with a couple of cute
little songs. For a four year old
he is a wonder in the singing

LOOKS WELL.
The Syndicate Property Begins to show
Values-Calcite and Borpite
Both Present.

L. w. Hackett, who came down
from the Syndicate, in which he,
E. s. Judd. A. r. Couzens and
Jack Johnston are interested,
brings some very good news. He
says they are down So feet on the
shaft, which followed the lead
which has only n slight dip, down.
lu the shaft they have taken out
about one foot of gone and three
feet of lime crystals. At the
depth of IS feet they had started
to o cut the vein. They had
gone through four feet of calcite,
mixed with bornite, here and there
and the lead was showing up fine.
ly. Mr.. Hackett does not know
what the width of the lead is, bnt
the miners estimate it at fourteen
feet MIR. Hackett brought down
some specimens of the ore, which
carries the same character of pea
cook copper crystals found in the
Rudefeha.
Mr.. Hackett also says that Gar.

MORE TEAMS.
Hon. George Ferris says He Intends t.
Put on Teams Enough to Keep the
Ore Away from the Miners
At The Rudefeha.

Mr.. Ferris says it is his inten-
ton to put on enough teams on
the road to keep the ore away
from the miners and to prevent
its piling up in the ore house,
which is now full.
1t is his Intention to put thirty
fours on the snow, between the
mine and the transfer. On the
lower end of the route he now
has ten SKIES and in a day or two
more will have thirteen. Tom
Waldron, Taylor Pennock and
G. M. Scribner intend to each put
on a six horse team on this end.
There will undoubtedly be more
men and teams employed as rapid
ly as they can be fitted out, for it
is the intention of the company
to move all the ore that can be
mined from this time on.
1t has become necessary to
split the teams, both on the snow
and between the transfer and the
railroad, and run them in separate
trains. This step was necessary
on account of the lack of &C.
commodations for the men and
horses at the companies stopping
places.

VACCINE FOR BLACK
LEG IN CATTLE.
Large Drug Firms, Who are Making a
Good Thing Out of 1t, Trying to
Stop Free Distribution by
Agricultural Depart
me Mt.

The ranchmen of this vicinity,
AS doubtless all over the ~state,)
have lately received letters of in
quiry from the Agricultural De-
partment at Washington, asking
it they desired the continuance by
the Department of the free dis
tribution of vaccine virus for
blackleg or not, and requesting a
prompt reply. This enquiry was
brought forth by the fact that
large drug firms, like Parke Davis
& Co., of D~etroit,the Pasteur Vac
cine Co., of New York, and Null
ford & Co., of Philadelphia, have
had a bill introduced into Con
gress to stop the free distribution
If virus, by the Department, be-
cause it interfered with their
profits in the manufacture and
sale of the virus. The Depart
ment wants to know the feelings
of the people on the question.
The Department has furnished
the virus, pure and fresh, free to
all parties making application
therefor. This has been done for
the sole purpose of assisting the
stockmen to stamp out the disease
as quickly as possible and at very
small expense to the Department.
The Department has been at great
pains to send only the best and
freshest of this virus to parties
applying therefore, and all that is
required in return was a report as
TO its uses and effects.
Now one word as to the big
drug firms who are trying to stop
this free distribution. When il
is known that one ounce of flesh,
taken from an animal that has
died from blackleg, and properly
cultivated, will make 5000 doses
of vaccine virus, and when it is
considered that these large drug
firms charge 121c per dose when
sending it to parties ordering it,
it will be eel that they would
have a tremendous monopoly and
a very profitable money making
scheme if they could have the De-
partment stopped from sending
the virus free to parties applying
for 1T.
The Saratoga Valley Stock AS
ISOLATION adopted a strong resolu-
ton on this subject, which il
would be well for every man, in
terested in having the Agricultur-
al Department continue it's free
distribution, to come in and sign
it. One copy of this resolution
will go to Secretary Wilson and
one to each OF our representatives
in both houses Of Congress. This
resolution is to to be found al
The SUN Office. Step in and sign
it.
