Jack Sheehan has Uncovered the
Ledge for 100 feet On the
Crown Point.
A SIX INCH VEIN IN THE LEDGE
RUNS FROM $500 to
$500 per Ton.
Good Ore is Being Extracted From the Slip,
Renegade, Cabin No. 2, Jumper. Butte
Mountain Boy and Other Claims.

lack Sheehan has struck 1t wonder
fully rich on the Crown Point mine at
Olinghouse Canyon. The new strike
is about 100 feet up the canyon from
his shaft and tunnel where he has done
his development work. The ledge has
been tapped at three points within
hundred feet and at each point on the
ledge every sample that has been
taken runs from 5000 to $500 per ton,
Ten tons have already been extracted,
sacked and stored at Mr.. Sheehan S
house, and when fifty tons have been
taken from the ledge he proposes to
make a milling. 1t is safe to say after
seeing the way he has opened it up at
different points and watching the sam
ping Of the ledge that he will have the
so tons if this rich ore ready for the
mill within 40 days.
The ledge is perfectly we'll defined
and the richness assures the owner
that he has big paying proposition to
the fullest extent in every particular.
What development work has been
done is in line to tap the ledge at
greater depth.
In the tunnel which is in the hill
about 200 feet and over 100 feet lower
than the late strike he figures he can
tap the ledge within 80 feet. In the
shaft which has depth of us feet
fellow the tunnel he thinks from all
indications he will be able to strike the
new streak ledge within so feet
The beauty Of Mr.. Sheehan's strike
since it is so rich, is that by only
small amout more Of development
work he can open it up on three levels
with the lower depth Of 800 feet We
have no hesitancy in saying that the
Crown Point is one Of the most prom
fsing mining claims in this county.
W, c. Williams has fifteen men in
his employ at present. He is keeping
his mill running night and day and is
making run at present on $35 ore.
He has $50 tons of ore at the MILL
Benson & Lively are taking out ore
on all three OF their bonded claims.
the Slip. Renegade and Jumper. and
beside are doing systematic mining in
developing these claims. We like the
way they are pleased with Olinghouse.
z. Olnghouse is doing good devel-
opment work on the Butte and Noun
tain Boy and is taking out some rich
ore He will have a good milling soon
Il the claims continue to produce as
lhey are at present.
We were informed that the Wads-
worth mill was soon to start on 400
Ton run of ore from Cabin Claim No.2.
mis- mine is steadily producing valu-
|aole ore and lots of it.
The Olinghouse mines are sure to
WIN out this summer whether they
pave outside capital or not, and it be-
gins to look as if capital will not be
4peeded to make it big camp.
". c. Williams will thribble the
capacity Of his mill within the next
lxty days.

London, Jan. f6-Stories which cause
uneasiness among Roman Catholics In
London continue to come from Rome, as
well as from other continental centers.
in regard to the state OF health of the
pope. His recuperative powers are
such, tho, that whatever apprehension
is felt elsewhere there Is little or none
in vatical circles.
On Monday, while receiving group
of Americans his holiness was stricken
with fainting spell, and was conveyed
to his apartments, where he soon re-
covered. The constant recurrence of
these fainting fits is the chief cause for
alarm.
The Rome correspondent of Vanity
Fair says in a dispatch printed yester-
day: ..The death of theNope may be ex-
pected any day. as his holiness can only
be said to be just alive. He takes little
nourishment and is generally half un-
conscious He suffers no pain and sim
ply dozes the hours away without COM
preheraon of what is going on around
him.
Mentally Leo XIII. is marvel of
strength. Visitors TO the vatican who
have heard him speak have wondered.

and carrying the light of sanctity, have
never been brighter or more marvellous

OUTLAWS KILL TWO OFFICERS.
Oklahoma Hishwaymen sIay Sheriff
Smith and Deputy.

SuttU auA SSkASys
Guthrie, Okla, Jan. 16-In trying to
take by storm an Indian hut in which a
gang of desperate highwaymen had ta-
ken refuge, Sheriff Frank Smith and
Deputy George Beck were killed yester-
day near Anadarko. The murderers are
being pursued by force of 100 men, and
more bloodshed Is expected If the two
parties meet The outlaws are led by
bob McCune. Ben Cravens and Bob
SIMS, among the most notorious men in
that region.
The highwaymen on Sunday night
held up and robbed persons going home
from church. Smith and Beck, accom-
panied by Deputy Briggs, found the
robbers early Tuesday morning in the
hut. In attempting to enter Smith was
shot thru the breast and died in few
minutes Beck also was shot thru the
breast and his left arm was shattered.
Briggs was not injured. The highway
men robbed the bodies of the officers
and then fed. Sheriff Smith made dy-
ing effort to arrest the thieves, and shot
several times thru the door and walls
after being wounded. Beck continued
the fight until he was killed.
Sheriff Smith was appointed from
Norman, Okla. where he had been<o on
the sheriff's and marshaPs forces for
number of years. A number OF murders
and robberies are charged to the gang
that murdered the officers and efforts to
capture them have been made by all the
officers in that vicinity.

demonstrations of the liveliest affec
ton and I am convinced their pres
ence served to rivet more closely the
bonds of mutual regard and loyalty by
which the vigor of the empire is main

relation with foreign countries the
king said: MY relations with the
other powers continue to be of
friendly character. Contrary to ex-
pectations the kings reference to the
war was just as indefinite as the state
ments on the subject made In the last
half dozen messages from the throne.
Il regret" said his majesty, that the
war in South Africa is not yet con-
cluded. tho the course of operations
have been favorable to our arms, the
area of war largely reduced and in
dutries are being resumed in my new
colonies. In spite of the tedious char
acter of the campaign, my soldiers
thruout have displayed a cheerfulness
and an endurance of hardships Incl
dent to guerilla warfare, and human
Iity, even to their own detriment, in
their treatment of the enemy, which
is deserving of highest praise. The
necessity for relieving those OF my
troops who have most felt the strain of
war has afforded me the opportunity
of again availing myself of the loyal
and patriotic offers of my colonies and
further contingent will shortly reach

content myself with these plain state
ments. The men and women of the
United States have reached a higher
point In the pathway of progress moral
ly, intellectually and socially than was

they are the creators of q mightier phys
ical and material development than was

ment that has more liberty, justice and
Improvement in it than any other gov
ernment that the world has ever seen.

mean that we have finished the fight.

won and will be crowded with opportu-
rities to be embraced. / turn from an
Inspiring retrospect to hopeful future.
REFORM
1t is eminently appropriate upon this
occasion to review some of the duties of
citizenship, to re-eXamine some of the
questions which engage the public mind,
and to again resolve to promote with
cur utmost endeavor the cause of good
government. The experience of the
world establishes beyond controversy
that nothing is more helpful! in the solu-
ton of the problems of state and nations
than constant discussion of the plans
suggested for the reform and betterment
of the rules of society. 1t is unfortu-
rately as common, as it is unpatriotic,
10 sneer at the idea of reform and to de-
ride the reformer; but the sneers and
derision proceed either from corrupt
heart or an unthinlsirg mind. Reform
and betterment in laws are as essential
to the advance of the republic as is the
growth in its industrial life. i therefore
make no apology for the belief that
many of the questions propounded to US
by the evolution of the time have not
been adequately answered. On the other
hand, he who predicates his demand for
change upon the hypothesis that what
we have is wholly bad and proposes to
overthrow rather than a gradual ap-
proach toward higher efficiency in gov
ernment is superficial agitator, who
dooms himself to defeat by ignoring the
fundamental law OF mankind. The true
friend of progress recognizes that what
we have is good, but. percciyes that we

laws are executed in this state is su-
pGrb testimonial to the sound character
of its people. The men and women of
Iowa are II believe, beyond all their fell
lows. either of this country or any other,
law abiding: yielding that implicit and
instructive obedience to the ordinances

In common with all of you, share the
pride which has become the habitual
garb of the citizens of this state. We
would indeed be insensible to the natural
sentiments of patriotic humanity If our
hearts did not expand with pleasurable
emotions under the influences which
surround us. Our beloved state has
barely passed the pioneer period of its
development, and yet 1T occupies a posi-
ton, in all the affairs of the republic, so
commanding and so honorable that its
sister commonwealth, without envy or
jealousy, graciously yield to Iowa pre-
eminence that 1t modestly accepts ana

an established maxim that of the things

with education and intelligence uniVer-
sally diffused; with love of country IN
every heart, and the weapons OF INDUS

FREE WITH POSTAL FUNDS.
Rathbone Admits Having Paid His
coachman With Government Mon

+
Havana, Jan. 16.-When the trial of
the charges growing out Of the Cuban
postoffice frauds was resumed here yes
terday Rathbone, ex-director of posts
of Cuba. was examined on the matter
of having paid for furnishing his official
residence in El Cerro, Havana, from the
postal accounts.
Rathbone said he believed that such
bills should be so charged that all
vouchers for furnishing this official resi-
dence were indorsed and that all the
furnishings were accounted for and af-
terward returned to the government.
H said the salary of his coachman
was paid from the postal funds, and that
when ex-Postmaster General Smith
came to Havana he rode in Rathbone's
carriage, and that at Smiths suggestion
he (Rathbone) bought uniform for his
coachman from the postal funds. The
government has disallowed these ac-
counts, charging them against Rath-
bone.

prosperity reaches its highest level,
progress its most uniform pace, content
its serenest phase and happiness Its
most perfect expression, in Iowa. With
out disparaging the splendid accom-
plishments of other states, 1t can truth
fully be said that the world can present
no fairer destiny for the human race
than may justly be predicted for the
men and women whose homes will beau
tify and enrich this garden of the world.
1t is with mingled sentiments of pride
and gratitude / speak of the republic
and the conditions which surround and
sustain its citizens. Governments may
rise and fall, nations may appear and
disappear, races may develop and wither
away, but we have established one prop
osition that will never again be doubted.
The student of statecraft will hereafter
always assume that republic may be
free, just, strong and enduring. We
nave solved the problem for all time and
cur people will be renowned in all ages
for the splendor of the period in which
the demonstration has beer made.
The story of the marvellous transition
from the puny power of colonial days to
the puissant strength we now exercise,
is in every memory. and need not be re-
told. The magical development in mate
lial things which has raised us above
all the nations of the earth has been the
theme of so many an oratorical epic that
the echo of the song is always In our
ears. The wonderful prosperity of the
people is q theme so fascinating that we
rest continually under its charm and de-
tail only makes the romance sordid. The
of our high standard of
manhood. so essential to the preserva-
ton of free Institutions is so manifest
and satisfying that the evidence Of our
senses needs no supplement.

CART AWAY STOCK OF STORE.
Bold Thieves Get $4,000 Worth o.
Merchandise at Menda, III.

Elgin, ILL.,, Jan. 16.-The store of o. G..
Colby, merchant of Nunda, McHenry
county, was visited last night by thieves,
who secured goods valued at $1,000 and
made their escape. The robbery was not
discovered until today, when 1t was
found that all the satins silks, jewelry
and laces in the general stock were gone.
The thieves had taken a trunk and five
large telescope bags and packed them
full of the best goods in the store. They
were not disturbed and evidently We're
deliberate in selecting only articles of
value. The trunk and bags were loaded
into wagon. The village marshal
traced the thieves to point twelve
miles west of the village and there lost
track of them. 1t is thought they had
confederates in the neighborhood.
