Predicts a Mild Winter.

Matthew Watt was down from his
Cedar creek ranch the past week. He
predicts a mild winter and says he is
confident he is correct by the signs
held out by the fall work of the bad
gers. When the coming winter is
going to be a hard one Mr.. Badger
digs long and deep, and when it is to
be mild he does very little work.
Last fall he did very little work and
from this sign, which he has never
known to fail, Mr.. Watt thinks our
winter will be mild. He is certainly
correct to date, for the oldest inhabi-
tant never saw a winter that would
begin to compare with the present
one for beautiful, warm, sunshiny
days.

UNLUCKY MEN ARE ALL ALIKE
They Go Cropping and Dreaming
Through Life But Never

1.-THE unlucky men all are kin; they
all have certain qualities alike" says
AN American Mother in the February
Ladies' Home Journal. They have
eyes keen to look into the root of things,
but which also dream dreams and see
visions; they have hot human blood,
they love or hate in ho halfway meas
ure. To each of them, too, comes at
times-no matter what the business or
pursuit may be by which they strive to
push their way among men and to grow
rich-a sudden disgust of it. heartfelt
and real. a contempt for the work and
for its successes. They dream Of some
thing before them better than money or
Office. and they try to clutch at it. So
they go through life cropping for success

HAVE CLOSED DOWN.
The Concentrating Plant, Which Was
Operating on The Ferris-Haggarty
Dump, Compelled to Stop
Work for Lack of Water.

The Sun learned from G.. W. Plum
mer, who recently came down from
Rudefeha, that the concentrating
plant which was operating on the
dump of the Ferris Haggarty mine,
had shut down for lack of water.
1.-THE quantity of water available"
said Mr.. Plummer, when asked con-
corning this matter, sis limited, the
mine and all the houses there being
supplied by a pipe from a spring
above the camp. The pipe carries all
the water hat the spring affords and
we have had enough to run a small
concentrating plant UP to the past
few weeks, when the supply got so
small that we had to shut down.
"Our lease expires the LIST of March
and unless we are able to secure an
extension of it we shall do no more
work.
"We were perfectly satisfied with
what we did and if there was an
abundance of water and a larger
plant put in I am quite sure that we
could make big money"

BATTLE LAKE.
A Prosperous Mining District, With a
Bright Future Before 1.-THE Fa.
nous Rambler Shipping Ore.

Judge W. r. Wiley, one of the les
sees of the Battle Lake Miner, was
down from that city Monday on bust
ness. He reports but little snow and
business of every kind as moving
right along in his neighborhood.
1.-THE Rambler, under its new man
agement," said he, sis doing wonders
in the way of development. The COM
pany has As men On its pay rolls and
employs three teams hauling ore to
the edge of the snow, down towards
Cow creek, from which place it is
hauled on down to the railroad at
Walcott. The mine under the man
agement of the new superintendent
John C~aderwood, is improving and
advancing as rapidly as it is possible
to do, for he is a practical miner with
many years of experience.
SAT the present the Hercules and
Portland are shut down and will re-
main so until the spring opens up.
The Continental people are very busy
and expect to continue work right
along all winter. The showing at
this mine is, in my opinion, as good
as any in the camp, outside of the
Rambler.
"a large contract has just been
completed on the Haskins property.
All work on that promising claim, or
claims, is now done by contract.
1--WE have only about two feet of
snow now and travel to and from the
camp is uninterrupted"

Stage Line From Walcott This Spring

M
Rumors concerning the starting up
of a stage line from Walcott to this
place continue to circulate here. The
latest is to the effect that several par.
lies are figuring on the project,
among whom are c. NJ. Scribner and
William Orville, the owners of the
present lines from Fort Steele to Sar.
Rtosa and Encampment, Luke Vor-
heis, of Cheyenne, Rendle Bros. OF
Rawlins and Sisson a. Blackhall OF
fhis place.
From the present indications il
would seem that the U. p. company
intend making Walcott the stopping
point for all passenger trains and &c
favor it as much as possible in every
way, because of the importance the
place is assuming as IA shipping point
for copper ore from Rudefeha and Bat.
tle Lake. If a line of daily stages is
put on from Walcott to this place, then
~ is quite likely the mail will be
changed to leave the railroad at thai
point, instead of Fort Steele, as al
present, and the stage line from Fort
Steele abandoned.
The outcome of the stage business
will be watched with considerable
Interest by all of our people.

FHE MEDICINE BOW MINING CO.
New Company to Operate Copper
Properties in ELK Mountain--Capi-
talized at ST., ooo,ooo-Develop-

menced at Once.

81 menced at Once.
Articles of incorporation were drawn
bere this week, under the title of the
Medicine Bow Mining Company,
which launches into existence another
corporation, whose future depends
Upon the value of the property which
proposes to develop. The capital
took is placed at 81 100000, N half
which will be placed in the treas
Dry, and sold at a low figure, to raise
bloney with which to develop the
lIine. The company owns the "Blue
Bell'coppercl claim in Elk Mountain, not
Very far from the properties owned by
he Elk Mountain Mining and Mill
ing Company, the extension of which
pill also be located in the name of the
company. 1t will also come into pos
session of the BLACK Hawk" and its
+ Xtensions, a parallel claim showing
very well in copper.
The shaft on the Blue Bell is nov
blown fifty feet. At that point the
NSorkmen came onto an Underground
Fave. This cave they explored for
some distance but did not come to
|the end of it. The theory formed by
those who examined the cave and the
shaft is, that there has been a large
body of copper in the formation of
the earth at that point, and that it
|has leached out. This theory is made
|much more tenable by the fact that
the walls of the shaft and cave, as
well as the sand and rock found in
them, are all impregnated with min
'eral. The company feel confident
that in a few more feet of work in the
shaft and they will encounter this
body of ore and that it will be not
only very large but very rich.
The company's property is located
well up in a canon ON the side of Elk
Mountain, north of the Elk Mountain
Mining and Milling Company's prop
critics, and the mineral is in all re-
spects similar to the remarkably rich
copper ore nov being taken from that
lnine. 1t possesses "a good tunnel and
mill site, an abundance of water and
Timber at hand for fuel and building
purposes. Next week we shall give a
more extended notice of this propo-
sition.
