PLACER MINING BACKWARD.

Conditions for placer mining have
been very favorable this year, and un-
less warm spell comes and takes the
snow off in hurry. the season is almost
sure to be cut short a few weeks.
w. r. Allen came in from his French
Gulch properties last night, and reports
no end of snow out in that country. Mr..
Allen says the snow is deep and there
will be no possible show of getting to
work on placer ground until after the
first of May. so far the covering of
winter has shown little disposition to
give way to the foliage of spring. hence
everything is backward and progress is
slow.
The hydraulic machinery purchased in
San Francisco a few weeks ago by Mr.
Allen is being installed and everything
is being shaped for the startup as soon
as conditions will permit.
French Gulch will be the scene of no
end of activity this year. The dredging
company is preparing for the season
run and Mr.. Allen will open up some
new properties of his own, so it Is ex-
pected that times will be prosperous in
the gulch this season even though the
season be short.

hair stand on end. He called to the
boys who were sleeping up stairs, but no
answer came. and his blood stood still in
his veins, believing every minute the
ghost would appear before him with all
its ghostliness and horror, ready to ami
hilate him. In telling of his experience,
he said he was too much scared to move.
and set in his chair all night, wishing
only for daylight. When he heard the
first rooster crow, his heart beat for JOY
because he knew the ghost had then lost
it's power to appear, Or destroy until an
other night.
Although Mr.. Falk was always one Of
the most incredulous before his exper,-
ence last Thursday night, he was con-
WINGED then and it will take more than
one or two things to influence him to
change his mind in regard to the exist
ence, and desperate characters of ghosts.
Strange to say the loud reports were not
heard by the other fremen sleeping up
stairs.
The next seance with the ghost was
Sunday night, when Mr.. Murphy visited
the firemen about II O'Clock and volun-
teered to hunt him out and bring him to
task for appe airing on earth. A plan was
agreed upon and Mr.. Murphy, followed
search the rooms up stairs when rattle
of chains and other nois came from the
basement directly under them, and Mr.
Murphy very bravely boted dow" the
st IRIS. Others followed and when they
had gone but short distance they found
that their leader had tainted and was
PROSTATE on the floor. He was taken up
stairs, where he soon recovered in the
fresh air, hut has not yet told of what he
saw when he entered the basement.
The pranks and antics of this ghost are
wonde full nded, ard have kept sew
eral of the police and firemen in the two
departments guessing hard and looking
wise for two weeks. All ghosts do things
cleverly and well, but the way this par
ticular one plays the piano in the fire
hall and rattles chains and tin pans In
the basement at the same time is more
than many of the wouldd- be -spook catch
ers can understand.
The fact of the matter is that the po-
lice department and Mr.. Falk of the fire
department have been ''jobbed," as it de-
veloped this morning when the whole plot
was discovered and exposed.
A string attached to the piano keys
was found to stretch across the floor
distance Of thirty feet, to where the
firemen who has been playing the role
of spook sleeps; which ought to satisfy
the firmest believers in the existence of
the ghost that the whole affair is good
joke from start to finish. But one or
two. who We're so badly scared on one
or two occasions still refuse to believe
it fake, declaring that no string at
tachment could be so perfectly arranged
to play the beautiful selections heard to
come from that instrument in the mid
die of night, with no one within thirty
feet. Strings We're also discovered to
run from the same fireman's couch to
the room below, where it was attached
to some chairs on an old harness. An
other went to the basement and connect
ed there with a can containing rocks.
But the credulous still stand pat and
refuse to be convinced that a ghost does
not still haunt the city hall building.

CONFERENCE FAILED.

; In accordance with the appointment
made yesterday, a committee of three
from the machinists' union and another
Iof the same number from the mouders'
Eunion held conference today with
President Scallon at the general office
of the Anaconda company, with view
Of bringing about settlement of the
strike at the foundry department of the
A. G. NJ. Co.
The conference was not long one.
The committees presented their griev-
ances. and they asked Mr.. Scallon if he
had any proposition to offer regarding
the matter, to which he replied that he
had none whatever. So now matters
stand just as they were, with little pres
ent prospect of a yielding on either side,
though it may be that some plan of
settlement may be agreed on soon.
The result is disappointment, to say
the least.
The machinists' committee waiting
upon Mr.. Scallon consisted of J. d. Nc
Kay, George Mckenzie and f. e. OAR
ling. Those comprising the moulders'
committee We're John Merz, II. Muckin-
strom and Dick Peckham.
