BE 1T RES OWED, That in the
passing away 81 ouf Brother our
Country has s,i, red an lrreparable
loss and Our O., ar A member whose
lite was the / txempllfeation OF
the beauti II, and exalted principles
that govern us and 'ach ia Ito
enGeavor 10 m Ike the world brighter
and better" CHARITY, the mob
lest tree that grows within the gar
den of the virtues, grew direct from
his great heart and its D!ossms were
fragrant with the perfume Of good
deeds AMI It's fruits blesse alike
the givar ana Fec liver. JUSTICE,
that ray OF divine light, flashed from
his pure soul and enabled HIN per
ceive The merits of others. and IN It's
flame, hatred, envy and malice were
consumed and III their SIC I'd honor,
candor, and manhood arose phoenix
like from ashes. BROTHERiY
LOVE, the clirent that unltes the
hearts of men, bou.-d HIM to his
Country aud Its people. 1t vlbrat-
ed with sympathy at the touch of
suffering and made the misfortune
of one, the sorrow his own FlUEL-
| ITY, the bridge that spans the chasm
of eternity, was followed by him
and lead tlrect to the pantheon OF
virtues and from it he viewed the
world paradise. He was safe from
the hostile winds of envy and malice
until that fatal hour when reason
was dethroned and fana.icsm claim
ed victim.
Life's story has beel often told
but he should have been spared to
have solved its problems tor him
self. HIS time upon the stage of
action was but brief and well did
he play his part. The character
was left for INN to choose and he
selected that of man of honor, hold
ing high above all things, high as
Hopes great tire bling star above
the darkness of the dead, love OF
vile and homeand friends. The name
Elk as borne by him was worthy OF

any other treatment. Cuts,

To show the MESSENGER that
the prospectors in the Yankee
Fork country are not sitting
around whiting and waiting for
something to turn up, there were
filed in the Deputy Recorders
Office here, during the year 1900,
quartz locations to the number
of 40; placer claims, IS; water
rights, 3; millsites, 1. These
new claims are all reported to be
good, if not rich, and are. in the
main, original locations, nearly
all of them lying south and west
of Bonanza and toward the Sal
mon.
The new gold fields near to
and south of Bonanza, and along
Salmon, will add new life to our
old Bonanza town, and keep up
the price of corner lots and resi-
dence sites.
Mining claims, of which there
are many in this district, were
pretty generally represented last
year in annual assessment. The
only relocation thus far made in
1901 is that of the old Daniel
O'Connell quartz claim, on Dick
ems Hill, about one mile from
Bonanza. Owned by non-resi-
dents, it was allowed to lapse to
forfeit through failure to per-
form the annual assessment as
required by law, and was re-
located by Lew Clawson and
Frank Georgetta and -christen-
ed the "Letha." The new own
ers have found the old ore bodies
about in the same condition as
when the mine passed from the
hands of the original locator,
some years ago, and will mine
and ship the first-class, of which
there appears to be a goodly
quantity of high grade.
Jas. Jose, during the past win
ter, has been running a drain to
open the placer ground in the
vicinity of the Steen mill, to get
into the Jordan creek gravel
channel, known to be rich in
coarse gold. He has not reached
bedrock yet.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS


This portion of the Fork coun-
try has been somewhat monoto-
nous during the winter. Little
doing and little going on, except
at the regular nightly meetings
of the Warm Stove Club, where
mills are built, roads constructed
and mines opened, next sum
mer), with the lavishness of a
Carnegie or Rockefeller. Some
times stocks Imaginary are
snapped for lies (reaD, and
every one of the Club has it fixed
up in his mind beyond peradven-
ture that in the year 1901 the
long expected fortune will sud
denly drop, already coined, at
his feet.
The Warm Stove Club" meets
on the lower floor of Beehive
corner and is usually we'll at
tended. Another Club-the
Observation-Disclosures occasionally,
to talk over old times and long
ago strikes, big Injin' fights and
road agent episodes. Two or
more answers for quorum for
the "Hasbeens''-never less than
two-and they meet by accident
or as opportunity occurs. Pretty
dry meetings, too, for the old
timers, as there are no wet re-
freshments in our camp this win
ter. Still another society or club
has occasional meetings to while
away the tedious days and
nights, This third one is known
as the 'Aninous," or Up-to- dat
ers as some call them. The
members must have every faith
in the bright future of the Fork
country and swear that they will
bring it to the front sooner or
later-not later than the coming
summer-railroad or no railroad.
Our winter has been all that
could be asked for-plenty OF
good, clean, cold weather with
only about two feet of snow.
Roads fine, sleighing good and
teaming uninterrupted. The
mail sleigh has been on time
every day, which beats all pre-
vious records.
There has been considerable
prospecting going on all winter,
and we now and then hear of 8
good strike being made. 1t is
reported that VIM. Tremper has
opened 15-foot vein of gold ore
in the Yellow Metal group OF
mines on the Salmon above Basin
creek. George Laundry has
opened up 6-foot vein of good
milling gold ore on the old Tonic
claim, Estes Mountain. re- located
as the Attraction claim. Bethany
and Harvey have been running
on a good class of ore all winter
on the Golden Gate, north ex
tension of the McFadden- Yankee
Fork, Mt. Estes. When the new
company on the Yankee Fork
mine gets started this spring
there will be quite a fourishing
camp at Estes Mountain.
Work has been resumed on the
Jesse James group on upper Jor.
dan creek, incorporated as the
Montreal Gold Mining Co. The
development is in the hands Of
Messrs. Louis Roy and Ed. L.
Ayers, heavy stockholders in the
properties. Mr.. Baker, the
manager, has his office head,
quarters in Custer. Soon as the
snow has sufficiently disappear
ed, he will put a good Wagon
road up the creek and erect a 10
stamp gold amalgamating mil
as early in the season as it car
be placed on the ground, the
showing in their mines justifying
all this.
Old Jordan creek will see ar
entirely new life this year, both
in quartz and placers when the
Montreal Co.'S. wagon road is
completed. Mr.. j. H. MCGEE, Of

situated on the ridge facing the
Yankee Fork river and in Saw
mill Basin. about one mile up
the gulch and where the Bomar
sawmill was located, about three
miles south of Bonanza. These
gold veins carry vaules from $40
to $50 per ton-with probable
average of $25-most part of a
character that amalgamates free
ly. 1t is reported that the COM
pany will put in mill soon as
the developments warrant it. In
the same vicinity a Utah com
pany last season discovered a
number Of gold quartz lodges,
located as the Zabe group, which
will be further developed the
present season.
Over in Rankin gulch, on the
same gold ore belt as that of the
Blackfoot and Utah companies
mines is the Warren & Wallace
group of veins on which consid-
cradle work was done two SEASONS
past and much good gold ore
brought to light. The owners
made a wagon road up to the
forks of the gulch, about one
mile from the Yankee Fork last
fall, and took in 2stamp mill
of the Baxter pattern of Boise,
which will be put in operation
early as possible, with the pros
pect of a larger one being bought
in before fall. The gulches cut
ting this new quartz belt have
been located for placers.
In Stanley Basin and vicinity
there will be renewed activity
the coming summer. A new
dredge company will operate the
Ballentine & Waters ground, on
Stanley creek, below the present
dredge, and all the ground is in
bond from there down to the
mouth of Stanley. Parties came
in the past winter from Boise
and located a water and ditch
right for the Basin ground, to be
taken out above the Buckskin
mine.
The mines at Custer Mountain
and in that vicinity will be under
greater development than usual
when spring opens. With the
completion of the new hoist on
the Lucky Boy that famous
property will be in condition tc
supply ore to the mill for years
to come. 1t is talked that the
Fourth of July mill will be put
into service again, and the Big
Vein Co.'S. mill also. on the com
pletion of some projected devel
opments.
The Coryell-Lost Horse group
of mines, a mile to the north oil
Lucky Boy, has been incorporat
ed as the Seger- Coryell Co.. with
the prospect of concentrating
plant being erected. The Lost
Horse is a particularly promising
mine, carrying gold, silver, cop
per and lead in good quantity
and quality. 1t is reported, also
that the Badger owners may re

will no doubt be largely increas

The town of Custer is steadily
growing, and putting on COS
