John Pogna's freighting outfit
hauled So h. p. boiler over to
Elko last week for the Brooklyn
Mining Co. 1t will replace the
one taken over earlier in the season
which was inadequate to furnish
the power required. On account
of the late beginning of operations
and the isolated situation of the
mine, the management decided it
would be impractical to haul in
coal for fuel this winter, and de-
cided to use wood. Accordingly a
force of men was put to work cut
ting several hundred cords of dry
timber, which is fortunately very
abundant in that immediate vicin-
ity. Sup't. Cooper has fourteen
men employed and has everything
in excellent shape for the rapid
advancement of development work
during the winter.

A new school district has been
organized on Anthracite creek to
be known as No. 30 at present con-
tanning thirteen children of school
age. The new district is located
about twenty miles west of Irwin
and includes a locality that until
recently was sparsely populated.
The development of that section of
the country along agricultural lines
is steadily and surely coming. Its
great extent of fine land makes it
an inviting place for the new set
tier.

All the signs of the times point
to Christmas. There are unmis-
taxable evidences of it everywhere.
The preparations for the Christmas
tree and the grand masque ball
Christmas eve indicate it, the gay
and festive display of holiday
goods in the stores point to it; the
people have taken on busy, bust
ling sort of eageIness, as if in an
ticipation of the glad day coming.
Altogether the coming Christmas
tide will be happy season for
Crested Butte.

j. A. Lehritter came in from
Denver Monday to negotiate with
the Augusta people concerning
mining deals in which the Mascot,
Yankee Blade and Excelsior are
the properties involved. Mr..
Lehritter now has the various in
terests in these claims SO amalgam-
ated and other matters SO arranged
as to render propitious their early
operation. This group lies ada
cent to the Augusta, and partic-
ularly in the case of the Excelsior,
has such a record of past produc-
ton known valuable ore veins, that
their acquisition by practical min
ing men would be an investment
that would yield handsome returns
to the operators and at the same
time further demonstrate the great
mineral wealth of this locality.

"The bill which was before the cener-
al Assembly last week was intended to
put stop. as far 'as possible. TO mi
gratory divorces. that is divorces from
the pond or marriage which permit tho
parties TO marry again, and the two

on as a step in the right direction.

divorce question OF sufficient Importance
TO be considered in this connection, and

islature reconvencs the judiciary commit
tee OF the senate will look at the matter
In the proper light.
Il think that the arguments made
by the gentlemen opposed 10 tho
passage OF the bill, even assuming them
TO be legally correct. are not sound.
because they are really OF no vital inn
portance.'
