pice that they had difficulty in de-
scending.
Finally, after entering the canyon
land following il some distance, they
saw the hurro. standing immovabe
on tn side of a hill and gazing alb
sently. The men stole cautiously for
ward, expecting chase.
But the burro remained like a
statue.
when the pair reached the ami
mails side, they found that he was
standing on an outcropping mineral
vein, while he was gazing at the spot
where shortly afterward was found
another outcropping of glistening
galena
AT the place where the burro stood,

| Kellogg's name being signed as dis
coverer and O'Rourke's as witness.
After talking the matter over, the
! two men concluded that If Kellogg
was named as discoverer. Cooper a
Peck might claim a share on the
ground that their burro was part of
the outfit, and that therefore Kellogg
was still in grub-stake partnership
with them. Consequently, the next
morning the original notice was torn
down and O'Rourke's name substitute
ed as discoverer.
! Returning to Murray the pros
pectors showed their samples, and n
stampede started-but nobody knew
whore the mine was. O'Rourke con
fided in Dutch Jake Goetz aud Con
Sullivan, however. and the latter two
located the Sullivan mine at the point
at which the burro had been graz
ing the day he stood on the Bunker
Hill lode.
after many discouragements, the
property was sold for 1880 600
Cooper & Peck sued for an interest In
the mine, on the ground that the
burro they had furnished in grub
stalking was the real discoverer of the
bonanza. Judge Henry Buck, Of the
district court CT Idaho, at Murray
affirmed their claim. In his decision
he said;
"'This court is of the opinion that
the Bunker Hill mine was discovered
by the jackass, Phil O'Rourke and N
s. Kellogg, and as the iackass is the
property of the plaintiffs, Cooper
Peck, they are entitled to half in
terest in the Bunker Hill and quar-
ter interest in the Sullivan claims,
THE mines are now worth $4,000.

A Bright Salvation Army Lassie. Who
Knows How to Keep Fer Corps in

OGDEN, Utah, Jan. II. 1901 (Spe-
cial THE Pacisc Coast Division of the
Salvation Army, whose noble work in
the interests of fallen humanity has done
so much for this western country, has
It's headquarters in this city. One Of
the brightest and most enthusiastic
workers is Lieut.. Miss Mabel Clarice
Hunt. Every one knows how these de-
voted people parade the streets day or
night exposing themselves to all kinds
of weather, that no opportunity may
be lost of reScuing some poor unfortun-
ate from sin and suffering. In some
cases. their recllessneSs in thus expos
ing themselves has been commented
upon as almost suicidal. Their answer
to such criticisms invariably is their
unfailing faith in the Divine Injunction
to do right and fear not" Lieut.. Hunt
explains one of tie means she employs
to keep her soldiers in good health,
as follows:

TIE STATE OF TRADE.
1t Is Quiet In All Lines, Interest Being Con-
centrated In Stock Taking - Cereals
Advanced Cotton Unchanged.

New York. Jan. 5.-Bradstreet's to-
day says: Trade has been quiet in
all lines, interest being concentrated
largely in stock taking and contem-
plation of 1900 results. Cereals and
provisions have advanced this week,
while stocks have declined, but the
upward movement has been one OF
those familiar of late, short swing
with small fluctuations. limited by
feverish desire to bag profits. Cotton
is rather quiet and unchanged on the
week. Wool is dull and rather easy.
The feature of the week in iron and
steel has been the large sales of steel
rails reported from the west, Chicago
particularly, reporting $4,000 tons
sold in one lot. This spirit Of activ-
ity contrasts strongly with the quiet
reported in nearly all other finished
lines and also in raw pig.

Topeka, Kan, Jan. 4.-The consti-

attacked in the supreme court yester-
day. That law provides that when a
county board so orders all land sold
for taxes must be bid in by the coun-
ty, and, after three years, turned
back to the original owner on COM
promise. Col. Bigger, of Hutchinson,
in order to test the law, offered
bid for some property, and when it
was rejected he mandamused the
county treasurer to compel him TO
sell Bigger the property under his
bid. 1t is this case that was argued
yesterday In the supreme court.

cias OF western and northwestern
railroad lines held a conference here
yesterday for the purpose of sizing
up the freight rate situation. Nearly
all the lines centering at st. Louis,
Chicago, Kansas City and st. Paul
were represented. Stuart r. Knott,
president of the Kansas City South
ern, acted as chairman. A number
Of traffic representatives were in at
tendance and replied TO questions
asked them about the malntainance
Of rates. The executive officials were
assured that no rate cutting had been
INDUCED In on any of the western
trunk lines and that unusual precau-
tions had been taken to prevent any
decentralization during the present
year.
Chairman Knott expressed himself
after the conference as being entire
ly satisfied with the present sltua-
ton. He said no resolutions had been
adopted, as they were not deemed
necessary. Representatives OF the
various companies had reported prog
ress in their work and everything
pointed to prosperous outlook.
