Copper Ore Reported to Have Been
Struck There by Butte
Men

Assessor Daniel Brown returned yes
terday from visit to the Highland dis
trict placer ground in which Charles N.
Gosman, JEFF Thoroughman and HIM
self are interested and brought with him
Information to the effect that three
Butte men whose names he did not learn
recently struck some copper ore in that
vicinity and thereby created an excite
ment OF no smal dimensions. Mr..
Brown says he saw some samples of the
ore and it looked like a good quality of
copper glance.
The find was mmade two weeks ago,
said Mr.. Brown, and since then a large
number of claims have been staked.

NEW DISTRICT IN IDAHO
A Spokane Man Discovers Groupings
of Gold Bearing

A rich new gold camp in idaho, 25
miles south of Warren's, Idaho county,
has been discovered by F. Pasold of
Spokane, says the Spokane Review.
Mr.. Pasold, who is just back, says:
Two months ago l founu an outcrop
of blue quartz, 800 feet long and about
60 feet wide, in the country south or
Warren's. The ledge has three parallel
veins. One eight feet wide, carries tel
hurdles from which 1 got assays of SIS
and Sal. Next to that s "a feet of
quartz. carrying considerable values in
fine free gold. PANIED the surface
rock with excellent Results. Assays
went $1O.75 and $17.26 Beside this is
still another vein of quartz which I did
not assay. The country rock there is
diorite and traced this vein System for
20 miles. 1t is practically virgin ground.
About all the work that has been done

and accidentally discovered process
that would attract gold. The plan was
SO simple that he could not give pub
lie demonstrations of his discovery
without exposing his secret, and conse-
quently his statements were received
with no great degree of credulity. But
now that he has succeeded in imparting
his mysterious force to a piece of steel
he may show it with impunity.
A practical demonstration was given.
The magnet used was common steel
chisel which had been drawn out until
the end presented a surface of from
one-sixteenth Of an inch by five-eights
of an inch. Although the surface was
very small. it readily attracted shaw
ings of gold, silver, etc, which adhered
very tenaciouSly.

JOHN CAPLICE LIKES ALASKA
Says the North Country Is a Treasure
House-steady Development;
No Room

Mr.. Caplice is largely interested in
copper mining in the Atlin district at
the extreme north line of British CO.
lumbia. He brought back some magnif1-
cent specimens of native copper from
the properties worked by his company.
among them is one piece Weighing 20
pounds of 80 per cent pure copper He
started with one twice that size but
lost it overheard in one of the lakes.
He also has specimens Of the base ore
from the claims, running from IL to 20
per cent. copper. The tunnel which the
company is cutting through the 30
foot lead is now in 80 feet, and the ore
is getting richer every foot. Ore carry
ing a3 per cent is being found in small
quantities.
The country is barely scratched even
in the best developed sections" said Mr..
Caplice to reporter. 1T is just
like it was in Butte IS years ago.
The first miners went In for placer gold
only. That is always temporary. Even
near the best camps quartz prospect
ny is new, and quartz mining unknown.
The whole northwest is vast treas
ure house of mineral. from the be st in
dications. with nothing explored but
the beds of the streams. and along the
coast. The interior is almost as little
known as II 1t did not exist.
There is no such a thing as smelter
anywhere in the country. The railroad
from Skagway to White Pass is propos-
ing to erect a smelter on one of the
lakes. which would greatly stimulate
prospecting. One can get water trans
portation almost all through the coun-
try around Lake Atlin. The lakes are
in chains and their waters lap the bases
of almost every mountain. Ore can be
shipped by water very readily.
There is talk of extensive coal finds
at several points. At White Horse,
good coal has been found though 1t is
not yet mined to any extent. The find

languishing somewhat. The claims are
only 100 feet square. and it is very hard
for the owners to reach an agree snent
that will allow of hydraulic mining.
There are so many conflicting claims to
be crossed in putting up a canal that
will carry a sufficient head of water.
that little is being done. Some fine
nuggets are found, weighing 80 to 40
ounces. Very little fine gold Is found
there"
Mr. Caplice says that the boom days
of Alaska are over, and the transient
travellers who went there with dreams
of easy fortunes are coming away in
large numbers. Just now IS the break
between the boom and the steady de-
velopment. He believes that there are
vast mineral resources in the yet I'M
explored parts of Alaska and the Brit
ish northwest, but it will take years and
money to develop them.

QUESTION ANSWERED..

Yes. August Flower still has ire 1arg-
est sale of any medicine in the civilized
world. Your mothers' and grand
mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors We're scarce. and they
seldom heard of appendicitis, Nervous
Prostitution or Heart Failure. etc. They
used August Flower to clean ont the
system and stop fermentation of undi-
gested food, regulate the action of the
liver. stimulate the nervous and or
ganic action of the system, and that is
all they took when feeling dull and bad
with headaches and other aches. You

1t was one a. m. and eight doctors
from Bellevue hospital and dozen
newspaper reporters sat in the office
of the morgue, says the New York
Sun, awaiting the arrival of the body
of woman who had shot herself.
The massive door suddenly swung
open and a well-dressed man entered.
Ue was about 25.
"Will you let me have room for
the night?" he said, approaching the
morgue keeper.
The crowd in the office Uttered.
Certainly" replied the man behind
the desk. What priced room would
you like?"
"About two dollars said the vis-

The doctors nudged the reporters
and the reporters smiled. Then some
one told a young man to go into the
Adjoining room and get big key for
the purpose of personating hotel

up big book resembling hotel reg
lister, the identifcatio book they call
1t at the morgue. Showing the book
toward the visitor he handed over a
pen, and said in businesslike way:
"Register there, please"
In a full round hand the man

Then he dug roll of bank notes

Going South.

On account of the severe winter and
the pr vailing grippe in the Northern

been great many people taking advan-
tage of the low round trip excursion
rates that are offered bv the Old
Dominion Steamship Company. They
sell round trip excursion tickets, good
until first of June. from N. Y. to Southern
Pines and return, including meals and
stateroom for $25.5o There has never
been an accident on the Old Dominion
Line since its establishment many years
ago and we would advise all those suf-
fer;ng from cold, grippe rheumatism or
any trouble of the air passage to go down
to Southern Pines and spend the remain
ing part of the winter; and there is less
fatigue, less liability of taking cold on
the way by going on the Old Dominion
than by an all rail route.

biggest Hat Ever known.

A straw hat, measuring 21 feet
round the brim, over feet across the
brim and 3 feet round the crown, has,
says a London newspaper, been man
lfactured by a Luton trader. 1t has
aclipsed all previous records. Nearly
ESQ yards of dark blue and white
Jumbo" plait were used, and the serv-
ices of four experienced hands were
occupied in the making of this ex-
traordinary specimen of headgear.
While this is the largest, the most
expensive hat in the world is un-
doubtedly the one which was pre-
sented to Gen. Grant while he was
II Mexico in 1882. 1t cost G 300 in gold,
and is now to be seen in the National
museum at Washington, and is the
finest specimen of a Mexican sombrero
