Arkansas Cattle Dying

Nearly fourth of a bunch of mixed
cattle bought over on the Arkansas
line last fall and held on the Riddle
place west Of town, have already died.
Judge Clark is authority for the
statement that whenever cattle are
brought from the clear water country
east Of Grand river and held out here
where the water is very impure they
will die. This has been the exper.
ience Of a good many people, covering
q number Of years.

George Warrington In SIS Or.

Probably the richest strike yet made
near Prairie City was uncovered last week
on the George Washington group Of
claims situated three and one.half miles
north Of Prairie City. There are three
claims in the group; the George Washing.
ton, Minnie and Jim placer. The two
former are quartz claims. The property Is
owned and being worked by Ward
brothers and associates. The owners
have drifted on the George Washington
thirty.hve feet to the hanging wall and
have struck Twenty-Five inch vein Of
free milling ore that goes S2s In gold to
the ton. They will now tunnel $50 feet
to strike the main ore body. From sur.
face indications there Is one Of the richest
ore bodies yet to be found at the base Of
this lode that will ever be unearthed In
this district. Stringers are running in
all directions, from which quantities Of
coarse gold can be panned, and It is pre-.
sumed that these Stringers are fed from
one large ore body. The owners were ex.
hibiiing several specimens In town Mon.
day that were almost pure gold. BY ex-
aminging them closely small quantity OF
rock was discernabe. Work on the tun.
mel will I've pushed as rapidly as possible.
