BIG BOER VICTORY.
They Capture Gen. Methuen
and Defeat 1900 British.

London, March TO- G. n. Methuen
and four guns have been captured by
Gen. Delarey.
Methuen was wounded in the

3S men we're killed and S officers and
72 men wounded. One British Of
ficer and 400 men are missing.
The fight which Methuen was cap

Pretoria, March 81 greatly re-
gret I have to send you bad news Of

mill. The Beers charged on three
sides.
''Five hundred and fifty men have
come in at Maribogs and Kraapan.

Heath. The first payment has
oeen made on the ground, and the
company took possession this week.
Fhe property is situated near Rapid
creek, and there is large mill site
on the creek, easy of access from the
mining ground, and with an ample
water supply. The Heath ground
is developed by number of shafts,
tunnels, open cuts and test pits,
opening up several bodies of free
milling ore. The company sampled
the ore carefully before purchasing,
the assays. averaging between 81
and So ton. The University COM
pany owns 300 acres of ground in
Custer county. and by acquiring the
Heath group, in Pennington county,
it has 500 acres all told. A part of
the working force has been moved
up from the University mine near
Oreville, and active development
commenced on the Heath property.

Will Resume Tin Mining.

1t is reported that active mining
will be started up at the Gertie tin
mine this spring. The property has
been idle for a number of years,
owing partly to litigation and partly
10 the destruction to the shaft house
and plant by fire a number of years
ago. The litigation has been settled.
and the company has lately been
purchasing new machinery for the
purpose of unwatering the shaft so
as to enable. experts to make exam
nations of the lower workings.
The shaft is 420 feet deep and drifts
have been run at each 100 'oot level
The water comes nearly to the top of
the shaft so that it is impossible 10
make an investigation with ,any de-
gree of satisfaction.
The Gertie is osaid to be the first
discovery of tin in paying quantities
in the United States. While it was
being developed experts were sent
out by the government to examine
the tin deposits of the Black Hills,
and it was thought their reports
that the existence of tin of CONNER
cial value in the Black Hills became
known and aroused a deep interest
in mining and metal circles of the
country. 1t was about this time
that Congressman Mckinley secured
the passage of bill fixing the tariff
of four cents per pound on block
or pig tin, to foster the development
of the tin deposits of the Black
Hills. The Harney Peak Tin com
pany had been organized by Ameri-
can and English capitalists, and
strife arose among them, vast MIS-
appropriations offunds being alleg-
ed, this throwing the company into
litigation in 1894 from which it has
never emerged. The experience Of
this company produced temporary
blighting effect upon tin mining in
the Black Hills, and the Gertie CON-
pany suffered with the others.
There is tin belt in the form or
a crest around the north and west
border of the granitic Harvey range
OF Mountains, and there are q nun
Der OF other partially developed tin
mines on the belt, including the
Dolphin, Tin Reef, Old jeff, Tender
foot, Cowboy, Mohawk and Samelias
and Sallie Cavanaugh. The latter
belongs 70 Mrs. Jeff McDermott and
| is under bond to London men with
a good prospect OF being sold.
The cassiterite of the Black Hills
is remarkably free OF metals that
would Interfere with the reduction
Numerous tests show that. it does
not contain to exceed one per cent
OF impurities, and it's smelling is
almost as simple as melting down SO
much lead.

Vast Amonnt of Ore Exposed.

The Tycoon Mining company has
a vast amount Of ore exposed in its
various working near keystone.
The company has several shafts and
tunnels, and there is ore in each
opening. In the 300-foot tunnel the
ore makes a breast ninety -fe ct
across; in the 150-foot cross cut
from the main shaft there is one
vein twelve feet one elven feet and
one twenty-five feet. across. An
open cut has neen made near the
summit of the hill in which a ledge
thirty-five feet across lis exposed,
averaging better than 81 a ton free
milling. The Whitley concentrating
tables have been placed in the mill
and the pipe line is laid for the air
compressor to the main workings.
The compressor is expected to arrive
in few days. The water for the
mill will be obtained from well,
which, according to careful esti-
mates, is capable of furnishing
enought for eighty stamps.

Circuit Court.

Ooute hdo Ueeu grinding alOng
steadily, with no cases of especial
interest to the public. The jury in
the case of Phillips VS.. Whitfield
brought in its verdict Saturday
morning in favor of Phillips.
The case grew out Of a land deal
Of year or ago. Whitfield had the
agency for piece Of land owned by
parties east. This land he sold to
Phillips and was to receive a com
mission of $50 for making the sale,
one half of this commission to be
given Phillips. Then, there were
several hundred dollars taxes against
the land. Whitfield was to secure a
reduction of these taxes if he could,
Phillips paying Whitfield $l2O,
thinking that when the reduction
was made this sum would cover the
taxes, as Phillips had agreed to pay
Whitfield so per cent OF whatever
reduction he secured. He thought
$120 would about fill the bill on this
basis. The reduction was asked, but
while the matter was p nding, the
Scavenger law went into effect.
The commissioners refused to com
promise on any of the taxes. Then
Whitfield was to bid the property in
for Phillips at the Scavenger sale.
This he did, contending that Phillips
owed him so per cent of the amount
saved as compared with the full
taxes against the land. Phillips
claimed that he was to pay Whitfield
s25 SO for bidding the land in and that
the old agreement between them did
not hold good. At any rate, the
case had more tangles in it than a
schoolboY's hair and was decided in
favor of Phillips. 1t was due more
or less to misunderstanding, it
seems, but demonstrated the fact
that Mr.. Phillips was up on the pro-
visio IS of the Scayenger tax law and
stood pat on the proposition to a
finish.
The case of Frank Lockhart and
William E. Hymer VS.. r. M. Maloney
to recover a commission due them
for the sale Of the Blue Lead mine
to the defendant was brought tc
trial Saturday and was completed
Tuesday, going to the jury in the
evening. The jury could not agree
and was discharged Wednesday.
In the case of state VS.. Thomas
Beverley and Fay Gentry on the
charge of cattle stealing, was called
Tuesday afternoon. Defendants
we're brought before court to plead
but were given the statutory time
in which to do so.

(By the Associated Press.)

New York, March 2S.-H. c. Copeland,
president of Riverside Bank, complained
to the police today that Fl. G. Bell, re-
ceiving teller Of the concern, was missing
and that an examination of his accounts
disclosed a shortage of $12,500. He
charged him with the ENLIGHTENMENT of
that sum and asked the police to arrest
him. Bell has not been at the bank since
Monday
On that day according to his associates,
his cash failed to balance and he was
asked for an explanation. He denied that
there was any shortage and said that he
would quit his place. He was asked to
remain but walked out. An examination
of his accounts was commenced at once
and it is charged that the discovery that
he had been Systematically holding out
deposit slips was made.
The Riverside Bank is located at 57th
street and Eighth avenue. 1t has capt.
tai of 100000 and a good surplus. Bell.
although a young man, had been long IN
the employ of the bank. He was highly
regarded by the bank officials. Bell re-
Gently inherited modest fortune and was
engaged TO be married.
