NJ F. Barber Meets a. War
cry Grave at Half: Mooxn
: Lake.
SATURDAY AFTERNOONS,

SATURDAY AFTERNOONS.
Perhaps the sadaest accident, in
the history of the range was the
Edrowning of Marshall F. Barber, at
Half Moon Lake Saturday evening",
by the overturnin@of boat from
which he and r. b. Freely were:
fishing.
Mr.. Barber, accompanied BY
Messrs. Freely and: Tornquist, had
gone to Half Moou>on Saturday for
IA short outing, intending to- pleas
Eantly pass the Sabbath with the
finny tribe which abound therein.
1t was while enjoying the evening;
fishing the accident. occurred, Nj:
Freely doing all in his power to
save his unfortunate companion
but without avail, and in order to
save himself fromlke fate was COM
pelled to leave him, and make.for
shore.
Messrs. Freely aud: Tornquist: tn.
ed to recover the body but failed;
and on the following day the lake
was dragged, DR.. Stuart Bates and
Supt. .Fairbairn bringing the body
of their late friend and companion
to surface at about 1880 a.. m. The
remains were taken to the Poole
morgue at Eveleth, where it was
prepared for shipment and inter-
ment, and the following morning.
brought to this city,. where short
services were conducted. from the
Fay hotel, under the~auspices of the
Masonic order, of which deceased
was prominent member. The
remains were taken to. the old home
at Vermontville, southern Michi-
gan, for interment.
Deceased was 4S years of age, and
since 1892 had been range represent
tative of the Lake Superior Powder
company. He was one of the most
popular of range residents, man
with myriad friends, with no ene-
mics. Higher tribute n-be paid
to none, and his death removesfr from
us one of our most prominent and
beloved citizens.

BIassRAlLROAD EXTENSION

The timber and ore resources of
the northeastern part of Minnesota
are the1cause of operations that are
every Gay changing the railroad
map ofthis part of the state. The
bulk ofthe railroad building in the
state this year will be north and
east of the source of the Mississippi.
The owners of timber and the own
ers of iron lands are vieing with
each other in taking out of that
part of the state the resources ma
ture haS been storing up for CEN
turies. lWhether, when the lum-
+ sber.jaerl saIld 1.-The iron s1laensaa are
through there will be anything
left to support the railroads is a
question yet to be decided. Much
of that part of the state is known
to be almost, if not quite, worthless
for agricultural purposes, but there
are thousands OF acres of good
lands that can be made productive
when the timber is removed.
AT the present time the timber
of this part of the state is a goal for
a number of railroad projects. The
Brooks-Scanlon Lumber company,
with new mill nearly completed
at a point near Cloquet, is building
road northeasterly from that
place to timber owned by them
north of Two Harbors. Eventually
this road will be fifty miles or up
wards long, and will reach up to a
connection with the Duluth & Iron
Range. The projected line of Cook
& Turrish from Virginia to the
Rainy river is the other large rail-
road possibility for that part of the
state this year. In addition to these,
says the Mississippi Valley Lum-
herman, number of the roads of
that section will build short exten-
sions for logging purposes, or to
better reach the iron mines. The
line from Virginia to the boundary
line will tap a lot of timber that
would, had Canadian mill men been
able to get control of it, gone across
the line to be manufactured. AS it
is, it will be brought to mill at the
head of the lakes or along the Miss
issippi river.
1t will be a good many years be-
fore the land of this section will be
entirely denuded of it's timber. It
will probably. be good many
years before the last of the iron ore
will have been taken from the rang
es: Meanwhile, the lands that are
capable of bringing forth crops
will have been sought out. Settlers
by the thousand will take the plac-
ces of miners and lumber jacks,
railroads that are now hauling logs
and ore will take merchandise into
the country and bring out the pro-
ducts of the farm. Outside of the
mining towns and the lumber
camps the population of that part
of the state is very small. There is
room for thousands, and after the
numbering and the mining opera
tions cease the towns will require
something else for support. They
will find this in the products of the
soil.

 Silver Belt: Mining in Arizona has produced such satisfactory results to those who have invested their capital and labor in it's mining properties that it may be confidently affirmed the territory has, speaking broadly, passed beyond the prospective stage. In three prominent metai>-gold, silver and expectations is now producing them in such quantities as to justify the assertion that it is the most richly mineralized portion of equal area on this continent. These are views of the Los Angeles Mining Review, the editor of which has, dur ing the past four years, carefully watched and noted the steady uninter. rupted development of it's mineral deposits.

 Prescott Courier: Good reports continue to come from Dr. Hendricks Empire mine, on Groom creek. A a short time ago, the doctor determin- ed to sink the shaft 100 feet deeper, which would give the workings depth of 400 feet This was done, aud from this depth cross.cut has been run which has exposed IT feet of ore rich in gold. Streaks Of gold, visible to the naked eye, show all through the ore. The 10 stamp mill on this property is kept steadily at work. The Empire is producing mine with a great future, and Dr. Hendricks, it's owner is lucky man.
 A Tucson, Arizona, dispatch says: The gold field in the Galiuro noun. tans, north of Tucson, is holding up under the development. The Elem ings have force of men at work on the property opening up the ore body. Samples and assays taken from work ings show that the find is of greater magnitude than at first reported Some of the rock is fairly glistening with precious metal. The owners de 1 cline all offers to sell. They are ar ranging to place 5OO-ton reduction plant on the property as soon as the machinery can be shipped.
 Tucson Post: Word comes from the Aravaipi canon that James Quinn who is now in charge of the Grand Reef mine, has recently resumed work on that mine in small way, with view of increasing the force in the near future He now has eight men at work, making general clean up in the mine, pumping out the water and otherwise making prepar ations for more extended operations.
