Magdalena, N. NJ, June 3, 901.-Mr.
Connely and partners continue to take
Kelly mine. Their shipments are net
ting satisfactory returns.
The Richmond mine owned by Orear
and Fleeman is showing very fine ga
lena. The ore Is handsome as it occurs
in large and bright cubes 1t runs well
in the assay and the pay streak is Wild
ening and improving as depth is gain
ed.
Wayne Russell and partners are still
taking out large quantities of high
grade copper ore from The Young AM
erica and are now increasing their
shipments. This is a new departure In
that section of the Magdalena district
which thus far has been only a lead
producer.
The Juanita is shipping good ore and
if indications count for anything, the
prospects, are bright for the uncovering
of large body of pay ore.
The famous Graphic mine, according
to late reports, will soon be at the head
as large producer Of a high grade
carbonate and fluxing ore. No other
mine in the west has produced as
much ore or the variety of ores as the
Graphic. It's manager, Captain A. B.

AN INDIAN HERnER KILLED
The Uneasiness Among the Red Skins is
CAUSED by the Invasion Of sooners-
General Merriam Has No Appre-
hension Of Serious Trouble.

Cheyenne, Wyo., June A telegram
from Fort Washable says that the Ar
apahoe Indians, who recently defied an
Indian agent, are arming. 1t is reared
and threatened that an outbreak can
not be averted without bloodshed and
the use of government troops A sheep
herder employed by William Madden
of Lost Cabin, was shot down by the
Indians yesterday, 40 miles north OF
Fort Washal1ie. The settlers of the
Landers valley are arming and many
are moving to town for protection.
NO CAUSE FOR ALARM.
Denver, Colo, June 4.-General Mer-
riam, commander of the department OF
Colorado, today received the following
telegram from Lieutenant Colonel Lee,
in command at Fort Washable, Wyo.:
1T is reported that an Arapahoe sheep
herder was killed on Friday on the res
ervation, 80 miles north of the agency
by a white sheep herder. This if true,
has no connection with the reported
disturbances though it Nigh incense
some Arapahoes. The agent of the
reservation heard nothing of the mat
ter, and everything is apparently
quiet"
This is the only advice that has
reached General Merriam regarding
the threatened outbreak of Arapahoes
in the Lander valley. Troop e of the
1st cavalry, is stationed at Fort Wash
axle. General Merriam believes that
they are sufficient to meet any emer-
gency. No orders have been issued to
send other troops to the scene of the
trouble. General Merriam said the i'll
feeling among the Indians is due to the
presence of "sooners" who have gone
into the country in anticipation of the
opening of a portion of the reservation
to settlers
