SURPRISED COLUMBIA
AT THE SHOWING MADE BY THE
INDEPENDENCE WAS
MR.. MILLER.
Ex-Mayor Visited It With Misgivings
and Returned Full of Enthusiasm
Result of Assays Made of Three
Grades of Ore Show as High as
Ninety Dollars to the Ton.

Hon. A. E. Miller and W. H. Kent re-
turned last night from a visit to the
independence mine. in the Douglas
Creek district, about a mile from the
Keystone property, bringing with them
specimens of the ore from the mine.
These specimens they have shown to
their friends this morning. and they
have created very favorable comment.
Mr.. Miller. in speaking with a re-
porter for The Republican. said he was
one of the most conservative of men,
and had gone to the independence mine
with some misgivings as to its worth,
but he had returned fully imbued with
its seeming richness and ready to be-
lieve that it had a brilliant prospect.
One of the specimens brought in was
a piece as large as a walnut that was
nearly pure copper ore, there being
a piece of quartz o bigger than a
pea sticking to one corner This was
not representative of the condition of
the lead, but it showed the presence
of a rich vein of copper.
From three assays made of ore from
this mine, or, rather, assays made of
three grades of ore. the following re-
suits were obtained:
The best specimens produced 41.4O
per cen of copper, or about $50 to the
ton.
The second best grade of ore test
ed showed 1850 per cent, $50 to the
ton.
The poorest lot of ore, selected to
run as low as the vein produced, so as
to arrive at an estimate of the aver
age product of the shaft, yielded about
$40 in copper to the ton of matter.
The company has a double shaft
down eighty feet. From this the six
men employed on the work are drift
ing, and expect when they have gone
sixty feet to cut the lead that shows
at the surface ores running as high as
the figures quoted above.
There is a second lead that cuts the
main vein at nearly right angles, and
this the drift will also cut. The sec
ond vein is not so rich in quantity as
the main lead, but fairly productive.
Mr.. Miller says it is not difficult to
follow the vein from the surface indi.
cations for miles, and the miners say
they are astonished at the richness of
the copper found on the surface, and
that they can find it anywhere along
the vein.
A teamster came in from the indie
%pendence this morning with several
hundred pounds of the rock from which
the specimens were taken, n said as
he unloaded them that it was a shame
to hide such splendid specimens in the
basement of a building. where they are
temporily stored. They should be on
exhibition.

CoIored Men Make Strike.

Two colored men. brothers. residents
Of this city, went to the mountains. in
the neighborhood of the Rambler
mines. some time ago with their wives
for a few weeks outing. and while in
the hills did a little prospecting on
their wi account. They sunk a hole a
few feet deep and no larger than a man
could work in conviently, and succeed
ed in striking what they think will
prove a splendid vein of copper. One
of them came in last night after sup
plies. bringing with him specimens
taken from the hole, which show n
very fair grade Of copper II He says
the body is large and promising. He
will return with supplies n the
brothers will continue their prospect
ing. They r greatly elated.

BELIEVED TO BE A FORGER
CAUGHT IN NEBRASKA AND
WILL BE BROUGHT HERE.
Raised One Check from Six to Sixty
Forged Another for Ninety Dollars
Secured Money and Stage Fare
on Othsr-Sheriff Cook Gone Az
ter Him.

Sheriff Alfred Cook and Under Sher-
.iff Yund have turned another trump,
proving that all they need is a tip as
to the crime and the criminal had just
as well surrender. They have neatly
bagged a man who succeeded in com
mitting two crimes and left the state
before the officers were even notified.
On Monday, September 16, a young
man named Arthur Fullet succeeded
in victimizing v. H. Pease, the stage
man, out of S54 and a trip from North
park to Laramie, and he would have
succeeded in victimizing the First Ma
tional bank out of 800 but for a display
of the usual caution of that institution.
He left town on the oon train the fol
lowing day, and when the officers were
first notified, on Friday of last week,
he was out of the state and goodness
knows where.
Last night Sheriff Cook was notified
by telegraph that the fellow had been
arrested at Stanton, Neb., and he left
for that point today, stopping en- route
to secure requisition papers from Gov
ernor Richards on Governor Savage of
Nebraska. He will reach Lincoln to-
morrow and begin his return when he
shall have secured the papers. and

The first of a series of yacht races
for the American cup was begun at
New York today, the contestants be-
ing the Columbia, the American cup
defender, and the Shamrock. owned
by Sir Thomas Upton of England.
The race began at noon.
The winning boat must win three out
of five races. :
At 1926 p. m. the wind had veered
to a southerly direction, and both
yachts had a broad reach for the home
stake. Two minutes later the boats
had the wind exactly on their broad
sides and all sails were pulling finely,
and they made good time.
At 3:40 the boa.s had apparently
ten miles to sail to the finish. The
time limit expires at 4:4O.
The Columbia was making excellent
time and seemed e be getting away
from the Shamrock.
At 1853 the Columbia was still main
tanning a good lead. The wind was
then dropping. and unless it increased.
it seems to be assured that the leading
yacht could not finish within the time
limit.
The wind was moderate and the
boats are going along on the reach.
with all sails drawing finely.
The Columbia at this hour is still
drawing away from the Shamrock.

ty who has a smelter proposition to
make, and the owners of mines may
add a word as to the conditions of their

bank knew neither of the parties.
Sheriff Cook communicated with Mr..
Johnson by telephone. and learned
from him that he had drawn no check
for $50 or for any other sum, and if
the check was not raised from SO, as
seems possible, it was a forgery out
right.
The Karlsou check was raised from
Sc to $50, and the forgery vas ntice-
able the moment it was examined.

Fulletz has been working as a farm
and garden hand at Bethoud and 9th
err points in Colorado and came here
from North park about the 18th. On
Monday he presented Mr.. Pease with
a check for $50, signed by E. L. Karl
son and made payable to him. Mr..
Karlson lives in the park. The amount
of the fare from the park was deduct.
ed, Mr.. Pease giving Fulletz s54 in
money.
On Tuesday he presented a check
for 800 at the First National bank.
The bank refused to pay the check, for
the reason that it knew neither the
drawer. endorser or payee of the
check. Fulletz told the paying teller
that he would leave the check with
him. and when the Identification was
complete, the money could be forward
ed to him at Columbus, Neb. The
check was signed by Jacob Johnson,

When Sheriff Cook vas appraised of
the matter he at once went to work to
aprehend the criminal and get him in
custody. 1t was apparent that he had
left town to go into hiding. and the
officer began with a will to unearth
him Ii run down his personal his
tory. Under Sheriff Yund was sent to
North park and other points in Colo
RADIO. At Bethoud he found where
Fulletz had been at work as a garden
er, and the officer ven found a hoe
upon the handle of which the fellow
had scratched his name and residence,
Arthur Fulletz, Stanton, Neb." When
Mr.. Yund returned word vas lei to
Stanton, II last night came back
word that the fellow had been appre-
hended and was in Jail there, awaiting
requisition.
At Berthoud the man for whom Full
letz worked seemed disposed to shield
the alleged forger, and would give
neither his name or present where
abouts, but when Mr.. Yund produced
the hoe with the name and address cut
in the handle, the gardener weakened
and told what he knew.
Sheriff Cook will return with his
prisoner as soon as he can get back
with him. Stanton is in Stanton coun-
ty, north of Lincoln, and is on the Elk

Ash Cave.
A Disastrous Sequel to the Visit of
the Ash Cave Commission.
April 4tb, 1901.

April 4tb. 1901
While the members of the Com.
mission were sojournlng amid the
"Hills of Hepsidam" the remaining
citizens, taking advantages of the
closing Of the Temple Of Justice,
were making merry in Fairfeld's
capital, so universal was their spirit
of jolli,y they scoffed at the posi-
bility of imminent danger, feeling a
perfect security in their strength of
numbers. 1t is easy to conjecture
that in this case they were totally
unprepared to resist a sudden on
slaught Of their enemies, the Mark
Hannaites, who swooped down upon
the ancient city and captured the
Office of High Lord Mayor and
marched of with the same in great
glee, much to the astonishment Of
the citizens. This dire calamity
will doubtless be warning to the
denizens in the Temple Of Justice
henceforth to remain within the
borders of the ancient metropolis in
these troublesome times on the
calends of April, when the fool kill
er is abroad in the land seeking
whom he NAV devour, and we there
fore suggest that hereafter extreme
measures be taken to insure the pub
lie safety. If this is not accomp-
lished, at no distant day some savage
chiet of the Pickaways may lead his
band within the city walls and force
ably appropriate divers antique re-
lies to convey to the neighboring
city of Circleville, which has ever
looked with jealous eye upon the
evidences Fair6eld's capital still
possesses Of ancient greatness.
We suggest that as the old Rhine,
(canaD the moat which formerly sur
rounded the city has been drained. !
SO that any hostile force can now
enter the city on dry land and as
rumors have reached Us that four
modern SamPson's are to undertake
the ardueus task of removing in dead
of night the mighty wooden abeIisks
which adorn The Plaza ir Lancaster,
being erected as an everlasting ,,
memorial to the glory of Co. A. ana
which, to the citizens of Lancaster,
occupies the same position as did the
wooden horse Troy to the Trojans
and to capture which meant the
ultimate downfall OF the city. Is it
any wonder Lancaster guards this
treasure We repeat, therefore,
that we suggest to the custodian
bugler be stationed upon the topmost
pinnacle of the Temple of Justice to
give timely warning should the
enemy be seen approaching, SO that
the brave men of battle may grab
the lance and ak and do noble deeds
of daring while the timid and faint
of heart may have ample time to
seek shelter upon the rugged sum-
NIT of the mighty pyramid of Stand
ing Stone"

Enforce the Ordinances.
EDITOR Hooking SENTINEL:

EDITOR Hooking SENTINEL:
Those democrats who elected "Ah
Brooke" the Heather Chinese, May.
or of Logan, are not "pointing with
pride" 10 his splendid administra'
tion, but are rather s'vlewing with
alarm" his want of ability to en-
force the village ordinances. A
few weeks ago one OF the most
prominent citizens of the Fourth
Ward called on the Mayor and ask
ed tnat the law against keeping stall
lions within the corporation be en-
forced. The Mayor told him to get
up a petition, which was done and
handed the Mayor, but the breeding
stable Is still doing business aod
disturbing the peace and quiet of
that section of the town.
The Mayor evidently does not ex-
pect to be reelected. There is com.
plant also about the liquor laws not
being enforced, and the back doors
of many of the saloons are open on
the Sabbath day. This is a motor
ious fact. The Mayor was support
ed by tie "drys" of both parties,
and he wants to show the SWEETS"
sswhat fools we mortals be-" 1t the
laws are not enforced l look for an
Aunt Carrie Nation to put in an ap.
pearsnce, like in Kansas. and settle
the matter. There is plenty of that
kind of material in Logan and all it
wants is leader. 1t was done 20
years ago (as our old citizens know
and may be done again. And while
1 would not counsel such action, yet
should 1t come, while I would not
mock at the calamity of these law
breakers, nor laugh when their fear
cometh, yet 1 would hail it as the
dawning of the day when sworn Of
fcers would discharge their oaths Of
Office. Either enforce the ordinances
or let the new council repeal them.
