tunnel was run to tap the mine at a
lower level but after being driven about
200 feet aud the pay chute not found the

mediately alter beginning work the
present operators uncovered 20 inch

miners had just failed to reach. The
ore runs in value up to hundreds OF dol
lars to the ton In free gold besides carry
ing considerable values in sulphurets.
In some OF the rock the particles OF gold
may be seen running through it in veins
and streaks.
Between the present tunnel and the
former workings is a solid pay chute Of
Of so feet. In the upper tunnel the pay
streak was four inches in width. In the
lower tunnel, 80 feet deeper, it has in.
creased to a depth OF 20 inches. By a
tunnel 250 feet long, the mine can be
tapped 100 feet lower.

Fourth Crop OF Alfalfa

Applegate last week the fourth crop oI
alfalfa for the summer OF 1901 was cul

the agricultural possibilities of this

last crop was not extra heavy but was

We're injured in a train wreck and sent

DIT. Moorehouse, the railway surgeon
who was In charge of the injured men,
has reported that they have had every
care and personal attention. He says
that the person claiming to represent
the italian consul presented no creden-
tials and appeared to be without proper
authorization; that any authorized rep
resentative of the Italian government
was at liberty to see and speak with
every individual Italian in the hospital
and this privilege has already been
availed Of.
It has also been charged that the
Italians who were killed outright in
railroad wreck or died in hospital were
hastily buried in order to make way
with evidence that might be basis for
claims On this DIR. Moorehouse re-
ports that every effort was made to
identify the dead and where those eff
forts failed the bodies were carefully
numbered and photographs were taken
of the remains to aid in further efforts.

NOVEL FIRE ESCAPE.
Six People Saved by Sliding
Down an Awning.

Kansas City. Mo-, July 1s.--An avn
ing came in handy as a life apparatus
at a fire in the east bottoms this
morning. A two-story brick building
at 1908 Rochester avenue, occupied by
a grocery store and dwelling by the
family of H. Franlxlyn, caught fire in
the basement, and before the members
of the family were aware of their
danger the fire was seen by members
of a dramatic company who were pre-
pairing to Ieaye for their homes.
When they had reached the burning
building every possible chance of
escape by the stairway was cut off.
Mr.. and Mrs. FRANKLIN appeared at a
front window and called for help.
There was not time for ladders. Just
then some one in the crowd called to
let down the awning, which was pulled
up next to the building.
The top of the awning was only a
short distance below the sil1s of the
second story windows and when let
down reached within seven feet of the
ground. Mr.. and Mrs. Franklin and
their four children slid down the avn
ing one at a time and dropped into the
arms of people in safety. The firemen
had a long run to reach the scene of
the fire and the family were rescued
when thew arrived
