AN EXCELLENT CONCERT

The winter concert Of the Barre
Musical Association was given last
evening to practically an empty house,
as only very few people were pres
ent to hear one of the best concerts
ever given in this ci y. AS good as
the concert was the evening before
that OF last evening is said to have
been even etter, This WAS particu-
larly true OF the chorus work as the
solo wolk Of the other concert could
not be improved upon. But the cho-
rus, encouraged by the fact that it
was their second appearance, sang
with more spirit and kept perfect
time.
Mrs Marie Elaine Clark, the So
prano sololst, is one Of the best ever
heard in this city. She has full,
rich voice. we'll trained and particu-
larly strong on the high notes. She
sings with thorough understanding
Of her music SO that it is great plea.
sure to hear her. She was heard last
evening in two solos and also carried
the solo work in the second part of the
concert.
The Mendelssohn quartette did we'll

But it was the work of the chorus
that pleased the audience the most.
They we're completely under the con-
troll of the conductor, Rev. e. M. Full.
Ter, and responsive to his will in every
thing. They sang In excellent time
and spirit. All those who stayed

Willy TRICKS

Dealer Against
BARRE GRANITE
Eugene Sullivan Tells How
People Are Deceived
BARRE GRANITE

Barre granite as well as Barre skill
is constantly Handicapped by misrepre.
sentation. The latest discovery of
how this is done comes from Provi-
dence, r. L., a strong centre for
Westerly granite
Eugene Sullivan was down there
recently and tells how the trick is
done.
He says that be found in the shops
OF two of the large t wholesale deal
ers there monuments OF Barre gran
ite. They were perfect atrocities and
the stone looked as If it had been
picked out OF grout pile. The car.
wing was wretched. As a matter of
fact both monuments had been re-
jected by the people for whom they
were ordered and had been sold to
the dealers who have them now.
These dealers admit that they keep
the monuments there for purpose.
They said to prospective customers
that they are fair sample of the
work turned out at Barre, but
they are not for sale at any price as
they are so poor. For this reason
they allege they do not handle any
Barre work. Thus the public is lead
to believe that all Barre work of in
ferior stone and Of poor workman
ship.
Mr.. Sullivan was in Providence in
connection with the fine monument
recently built fJr the O'Sullivan
Bros, OF that city. This is one Of
the best monuments in the.city but
people do not believe that it came
from Barre as they have. been led to
believe that Barre work js so poor.
Mr.. Sullivan recommends to get
over this trouble rigid inspection of
all work before it is shipped and
monuments TO be # certain standard
before they are sent out. He holds
that if the general public knew this
they would have moro confidence in
Barre work and that no one could run
it down successfully.

OScEOLA NUGGETS.

&C. Poltana has gone to Ely to be
gone couple OF weeks.
Mrs. Charles Gaby of Ely is visiting
her parents and friends here.
Mr.. and Mrs. George Robinson OF
Snake Valley came up Saturday.
The weather continues cold and stor-
my.
We regret to hear the sad news OF
the suicide OF L. S. Scott of Ely. Our
heartfelt sympathy is extended to the
bereaved family.
Not wishing to foster alarm about
small pox, yet hearing of its appear
ance among the Indians of Cherry, we
think all safe means should be adopted
for its prevention. A simple prophy
Tactic has been recommended by expe-
rienced physicians and found to be ef-
ficacious. The following is the formu-
la: Take 2 ounces Cream of Tartar;
one ounce EPSON Salts, and one lemon
sliced. Pour one quart of boiling wa
ter over all, and sweeten to taste. To
be taken cold, small wine glass full
three times a day, or little more twice
a day. This is for adults; smaller
quantities for children, according TO
age, and not enough to act as too much
of a purgative.

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
A NUMBER OF PEOPLE RB-
PORTED KILLED.

The West bound Flyer, with two en-
gines, is reported to have met with a
terrible accident near Wells, ON Tues
day last. One of the wheels of the for
ward engine broke, throwing the train
from the track. The cars caught on
fire, and thousand sacks OF mail were
burned. The two firemen were in
stantly killed, and the two engineers
SO badly scalded that they will proba-
bly, die. Several passengers are repor-
ted killed. There are no further par
ticulars, and details cannot be given.
The accident seems to have been one
OF the worst ever experienced on the
road, and serves to show how many
accidents the travelling public are La
BILE to meet with. This time it seems
to have been caused by a defective
truck-wheel, difficulty which the
company could not have foreseen.

LEAD MINES OF ROBINSON DISTRICT
Very Bright Prospect for Their
Future.

The general impression that has gone
abroad among mining men regarding
Robinson Mining district is that it is a
gold and copper camp. While we
admit such to be the fact, this district
is designed at no distant day, to be a
great lead producer as well.
When lead smelling was in its In
fancy in the West, j. B. McGee and
others erected smelter at Robinson
In 1872, which produced a large amount
of silver-lead bullion; but through mis-
management OF some of the owners,
the enterprise fell through and the
plant closed down. The company
owning the principal lead mines got
their prospects patented and abandon
cd the camp.
Since then few miners have worked
in a desultory manner on some OF the
most promising properties. The ore
generally being too low grde in values
to stand the prohibitive freight charg.
es. 1t Is only in the last few years that
freights have been reduced aud the
price OF lead high enough to leave the
miner a margin to reward him for his
work and leave balance for future
developments. There have been q
number of prospects opened up in the
last two years that show splendid val
ues in lead, silver and gold. Shipping
ore from this point must carry 40 pei
cent lead, 20 OF. silver and five in gold
to pay. There have been about Bon
tons OF such ore shipped the last year
The ore is galena and carbonate, with
! crystalied lead in places. This ore II
found in lime formation on either side
of the gold and copper belt. Recent,
the writer saw some assays from the
west end that carried 1853 OF. silver, "
per cent lead and slS in gold.
There is large tonnage that would
pay nice profit with cheap transpor
tation or with local smelter. Here Il
an opportunity for capital that shouit
not be overlooked by those seeking
legitimate Investment.

That veteran autocrat of Colorado
eastbound tourist rates who last year
put the rates in effect on his road over
the veto of other lines, John Sebastian,
general passenger agent of the Rock
Island, has again taken the initiative.
The introduction of eastbound excur-
sion rates last year In connection with
the westbound summer rates which
have been in effect for years, proved
profitable to the roads and was very
gratifying to the people of Colorado,
thousands of whom took advantage of
the opportunity to visit their old homes
or friends at the east.
Mr.. Sebastian has given notice of the
intention of the Rock Island, to make
the rates, Independently, If necessary,
but announcing the rates and dates on
which the excursions will be run. The
aggressiveness of the Rock Island last
year was appreciated by the Colorado
public, and at the close of the season
had the hearty support of lines which
had accepted the inevitable under pro-
test. The notice sent out yesterday
follows:
"This company has submitted a
proposition to the Western Passenger
Association and Southwestern Passen-
