two weeks since relative to the delay
in di,poSiug of the appeal of Milton O.

had not said he would move for the dis.

OF the finer screens, dried and the
stones picked by hand from the small
amount OF gravel remaining. Allthe
stones are saved, the larger perfect
ones being valuable as gems; the
smaller ones being used as watch
jewels and In other fine mechanical

purposes, when II is known as emery.
The stones OF the Yogo vein vary
In size from the smallest to four or

in value the best products OF the
mines Of Ceylon and Burmah. The
largest stone yet found In the Ameri-
Gun Gem company's mines was taken
from the Fourth OF July" claim and
weighed eight karats, and one taken
from the New Syndicate mines
weighed a little more than nine kar-
ats.
The stones are very equally distrib-
uted throughout the vein, but are
less broken and somewhat better
formed In the deeper workings, al
though some OF the most valuable
stones yet found were from the sur
face. The sapphire color is blue and
the shade known as corn-lower blue
is the most highly priced. Occasion

the ruby are found In the Yogo vein,
but they ars usually imperfect and
worthless as gems.

American Gem company mines are

The southbound train was to meet
the other at Malvern, but the latter
train was late and the former moved
ahead, expecting to meet the other
train at the next station. A mile

trains met in terrific collision. En-
gineer Robert Herriot, of the north
bound train. jumped in time to save
his life. while Engineer McCampbell,
of the Little Rock train, did likewise.
The two engines were wrecked and
the colored coach next to the baggage
car on the southbound train was bad
ly smashed. 1t was crowded with col
ored emigrants en- route from North

brought here as soon as possible.
