METZ CLAIM :
WAS JUMPED
THE DISCOVERY WAS MADE BY
MR.. METZ AT A LATE HOUR
TODAY.
AFTER THE INJUNCTION
HAD BEEN DISSOLVED.
Alleged the Jumper is Member of the
Legal Bar Of Butte-More
Litigation Threatens.

John Metz, owner of the Metz quartz
claim, which is the richest piece OF
gold property ever discovered in these
diggings, is evidently on the eve Of
more trouble oyer the claim, but he will
in all probability pull through all right.
The mine is located near the Colorado
company's old concentrator. which is
about two miles southwest of the city
When the. 15-inch streak of gold ore
was struck in it few months ago,
James G. Vier claimed half interest
In the property, basing the claim on
the allegation that Metz had promised
him the interest for doing certain de-
velopment work on it. He brought
suit against Metz and had the latter
enjoined and restrained from working
the property pending the hearing of a
motion to make the INDUCTION hold until
the trial of the suit. which would give
1t ten. years lease of life. While
Metz was .obeying the order of the
court in regard to the temporary in
junction, someone who thought he could
get away with the property, jumped it
and. 1t is said, will attempt to escape
with it. Metz did not discover that his
property had been jumped until after
the order of injunction had been dis
solved about noon today. 1t is alleged
that the jumper is a member of the
legal bar of this city.

O. A. Baker registered at the McDer-
mott from Chicago, which he considers
home" when commercial travellers are
able to place their feet on the tenders
or the fireplace and tell stories otha,
than those they laugh over in railroad
ears. On his card, over the Chicago ad-
dress of the furniture house he repre-
sents. is another reading 663 Mission
street, San Francisco. Mr.. Baker. on
the road. gives purchasers the choice of
selecting from five furniture houses, all
of whom he represents.
Mr.. Baker says all over the west.
from Denver to San Francisco. and
even to the Hawaiian islands, there is
brisk demand for furniture especially
in the inter-mountain country. In his
twenty-five years of travel and obser-
walton, he never found the furniture
business in better condition.

Just now furniture exposition is

ohases, because all signs point to

Baker concluded. (which l believe no

THE NEW POSTOFFICE

The plate glass windows in the front
of the postoifce were put in this morn
ing and the clerks now take a little more
comfort than they have since the first of
the month. The plate glass, however,
only covers the lower portion of the win
dows and the upper portion is still COW
cred with cloth. This will be replaced i'm
day or two with glass. The clerks have
got used to the new quarters and find
that they cand do their work mucn faster
than in the old office to their own salts
