A new consign- ment of traps was received yesterday. The Census Office authorities, however,

William Adamson, aged about 80
years, had the misfortune to have
an arm broken and receive some
ugly flesh wounds. He was under
cutting some coal, when the sprag
which he was using to keep up

RockvaIe is again assuming an
air of prosperity. The teams be-
longing to the Terrible mine at
Use, northeast of Querida, are
coming in daily and taking coal
up to the mine, There are about
dozen of them. Ore, too, is be-
ing shipped from here over the
Santa Fe to the smelters at Den
yer and Pueblo.
Coal is also being freighted from
here to the Bassck mine. The
ore shipments, however, have been
called off owing to the volume of
water which is flooding the mine.
Pumps have been put to work and
the water will soon be out of it.
Rosita camp is again coming to
the front. Old mines that were
abandoned are being restored and
ore taken out Two carloads were
shipped out of here to the Rocky
Mountain smelter at Florence. 1t
