Shooting OF Lew Scott.

AS far as can be learned the shooting
of Lew Scott, formerly of this place,
took place N the following manner.
Scott. who is brennan of the Miller &
Lux property In Oregon known as the
Harper ranch, had in his employ two
brothers whose names cannot be ascer-
tanned here. He had some difficulty with
one of them and In an alteration over
the amount of wages due the man, Scott
pushed him off a low porch. The other
brother came around the house and shot
Scott, the ball entering his side. AT first
he was not supposed to be badly wounded
but a later report indicates that he is
In q very serious condition.
1t is to be hoped that he will recover, as
he was well liked here and a man of ex-
cellent nature and mot at all quarrel
some.

OLD MINES HISTORY.
''Pride Of the Mountain" Rich Producer In
Early Days Compan, VIII Resume Work.

The old Pride of the Mountain mine, in
Winnemuca mountain, lately acquired by
Messrs. Everett and Adamson for the
Intermountain Mining Company, was in
the early days of Winnemucca one of the
leading mines in Humboldt county and
has contributed its thousands. of dollars
in bullion to the worlds treasure.
This mine was worked long before the
ed overland by freight teams to the coast
and shipped to Swansea. Wales, for
treatment, very little being known at
that time about the reduction of ores in
this country. The ores had to be ex-
tremely rich they would not pay to haul
hundreds of miles by team and then by
ship around the Horn and across the
Atlantic to Wales.
The ores were good and the mine paid
about 1872 or 1873, considerable work was
don on this mine, and. as the ground
shows for itself, ore was extracted along
the surface to a depth of 1870 feet for over
1900 feet to the water level, but on ac-
count of the high price OF machinery in
those days very little work was done be-
low the water level.
A shaft was sunk on the vein and hoist
ing works were erected. A large quantity
of good ore was extracted from this
shaft, but on account of the inability to
handle the water work was ceased.
Miners who worked there say there is
plenty Of good ore in the shaft yet.
In later years a tunne was was run to
tap the ledge below the old workings, but
by a mi~scalculation the tunnel only tap
ped the old works and did not open UP
new ground. This tunnel is 800 feet in
length, and In running it three other
veins were cut. all carrying good ore,
which was worked in the Alex Wise mill
near Winnemucca. These veins were
never worked below the tunnel level,
which has some water in it.
The veins are still there. showing in
the bottom of the tunnel, and there is
no reason whatever why the ore should
not be as good below as it was above,
and the workings show that a consider
able amount was taken out.
Messrs. Everett and Adamson are very
enthusiastic over their new venture and
every encouragement will doubtless be
given them by the citizens of Winnemuc-
ca. as the mine is situated only a mile
or so from town. There is no reason why
the old Pride of the Mountain could not
be made to produce as it did in the earlier
history of the county.

THE MINING FIELD
COPPER.

The copper market is quiet, with changes in prices, says the Engineer ing and Mining Journal. Most produ- cers are well sold up, and consump- ton is very large, as all manufacturers are exceedingly busy. In London the market has been rather fiat, and stan dard copper is lower. Refined copper is steady, however, and standard is merely approaching more nearly the normal difference between that grade and eloctrolytic.
 Copper production, as reported by John Stanton, who acts as statician for the companies, showed an increase ln May, which was larger even than we had anticipated. The total output from he United States mines for the month was 25,673 tons, of which 21, I63 tons came from the reporting mines, and 40, 900 ton from the outside sources that is, from the smaller mines and from the smelters who treat ores carry ing copper with other metals. The to- tai shows an increase of 3,371 tons, or l5.1 per cent over May, 1901. This gam, Wnlcn 1nOlCdteS that lHt Inluts are now. as a rule. working very act lively. was large enough to do much more than offst the decreases shown in tn earlier months of the year. The total output for the months to the end of May was l13,70S long tons, being greater than that for the corresponding period of ast year by 2.1l5 tons, or 24 per cent. The indications are that June will show another large gain. The foreign reporting mines-includ- ing all the principal European mines also show large increase in output. their total for the five months having been 4,344 longs tons, or 15.7 per cent. Notwithsta this great production abroad the exports from the United States continue large. Although they were 3.Sl4 tons less than in April: while the total for the five months was S3.439 tons. which is considIably more than twice the quartity-3S,1S5 tons reported last year. Up to the end of May this year we exported 13S per cent of our total production, against 335 per cent in the corresponding per iod last year.

CONVICT REFUSED TO WORK.
He Was Advancing With Drawn Axe When
He Was Shot

The Lumberton Argus gives these adj
ditional particulars with reference to
the shooting of a convict in Robson
county:
Sometime ago John Nivens, a negro
on the changing for stealing whiskey,
while at work near Red Springs cut his
foot, and since that time has been rest
ing in the Jail. Having sufficiently re-
covered to return to work, he had to be
pushed out of his cell Monday morning
He, upon joining the gang, under Mr..
w. d. Prevatt, absolutely refused to
work. At dinner, which was taken in
cabin, Nivens walked out, and when
halted by Mr.. Prevatts son, who was
standing guard, continued to advance to-
ward the wood pile where lay an axe.
The SON. raised his gun but his father
told him not to shoot. that he would
bring him back. AS Mr.. Prevatt was
advancing, and just before the negro
reached for the axe, the negro said,
shoot, I'd as well be dead as alive He
picked up the axe and turning was on
the point of throwing it when he was
shot down. The ball passed through the
body, entering at the abdomen aud pass
ing out at the back, and probably pass
ing through the bladder
