CObre Grande Litigation.

The trial of the case of Axel Hal lenborg vs. the Cobre Grande Mining and others was concluded last evening and taken under advise ment by Judge R. E. Sloan. Tester day was spent in argument of the case by attorneys and there was any quantity of eloquence poured into the iudge's ears. The amount involved in the case is perhaps greater than in any case ever before tried in this county as it involves the famous Cananea mines, said to be worth at the least estimate S50,000,0O0.
 Today the case of James Shirley vs. Mitchell was commenced and oc- cupied the court all day. This Is also aTcase in which millions are in volved and it will probably take two or three days to complete it.
 MessrS. Hallenborg and Shirley are represented by Judge J. J. Hawkins of Prescott, Judge J. NJ. Jamison of Phenix and Mir. Cruikshank of the firm of Atwater x Cruikshank of New York.

A PROMISING COMPANY.
The Verde Smelling, Developing and Ore Purchasing Company Incorporates With Mines and Reduction Plants Ready for Producing Bullion.

Articles of incorporation of the Verde Smelling, Developing and Ore Purchasing company, have been filed for record with the county recorder. This company is the successor of the Grand Prize company, which has been operating in Tonto basin and has acquired all the interests owned by the Grand Prize company in twenty valuable claims in Tonto basin and all the property connected with them. The new company starts out under very suspicious circum stances as the property has develop ment work performed on it aggrega- ting about 4500 feet. It is equipped with 90-ton shelter and has hoist, buildings, pumps and all the para phernalia required for successful operation. It is expected to have the shelter in operation by July 1.
 The properties carry good values in gold, silver and copper-in fact some of them were located as gold claims, the other values showing up as development progressed. In the Grand Prize mine the lowest gold assay obtained was St0Q, while there is a good percentage of copper and silver, although the percentage of copper is lower in this claim than in some of the others.
 Other properties carry from twelve to twenty per cent in. copper and good values in gold and silver, some of it running as high as fifty ounces in the white metal. In addition to working the ores from its own mines there is large mining district con tiguous to its smeiter, which is cap able of producing thousands of tons of ore which can be treated at the Verde company's plant, if at any time they should run short of ore from their own mines. The ore from bDCoO luluCo 1lhC buOoC ONhCu Oy the above company, is of high grade and much of it has heretofore been shipped without treatment to smell ters, including a wagon haul of 90 miles to Globe. The advantage both to the company treating the ore, as well as the parties producing it, of having it treated on the ground, must be apparent to all.
 The management of the property is in the hands of John A. King, an experienced mining man as we'll as smelter man of years of experience. Developed and equipped as it is all ready, 1t will enter the list of pro ducers at once and should also enter the list of dividend payers within a few months of commencing opera tiOns.

4 Wasp's Sag acitY.

While in conversation few days since with one of the best known miners in the county, the latter re lated an interesting stoEy about a species of wasp known as mud daubers" from the fact that they build their nests with mud. He said that he and another miner had been at work in tunnel. and were engaged eating their dinner at the noon hour when one of these wasps appeared in the tunnel and deposited a load of mud on the roof where it was just starting to build nest. After 1t left he arose and wiped the mud off and again took his seat at his dinner. his location being slightly further back in the tunnel than his partner. The wasp soon returned with more mud and seemed surprised to find the work already performed all de stroyed. It dropped the mud and proceeded to moisien the place again, prepatory to starting anew. After this was done the wasp left, when the miner again got up and wiped the place dry. On the return of the wasp in attempting to place the mud m po- sition. in the absence of the moisture placed there by it to serve as mortar the mud fell to the ground. The operation was repeated two or three times-each time in the absence of the wasp the miner would get up aad wipe it of. Finally on returning and finding the same conditions, the wasp, without any warning, darted at his partner, who as stated happened to be sitting nearer the mouth of the tunnel. and with buzz and zip sank its sting deep into his neck, giving them to understand that he was pre- pared to defend his work and flew away. In short time a lump larger than a walnut had swollen on the mans neck, and the man who had l been the cause of the trouble as he related it. said: II had to turn mud dauber myself and carry mud to pouitice the wound caused by the sting and draw the poison out of it. My partner was very angry at first ana lt WAS some tune DelOfc sue ceeded in alleviating his pain and got him to appreciate the joke"
 The wasp seemed undismayed by the experience" he continued, ''and soon returned with more mud and proceeded with building his nest un- molested by us"
 An alleged new oil district, known as tue Mint Valley district, has been discovered and sixteen quarter see tions of land, or four square miles of

NEW SOCIAL FORCES.
Their Probable Effect Upon Society,"
An Interesting Paper.

At the meeting of the Social Science
club Wednesday, Rev. F. B. Cowgirl
read most interesting and well pre-
pared paper on "New Social Forces
and Their Probable Effect. " He said
that by new social forces, he supposed
it was meant, and he would take only
those which had been introduced
within the past generation. He then
reviewed those forces which have been
introduced, covering the Improvements
which have been made in railroad"
ing and telegraphy. The electric lines,
the telephone, the bicycle and all
other inventions and discoveries which
tend to revolutionize our social life.
He also referred to the rapid increase
in fraternal societies with their insur-
ance benefits and the effect they have
upon society in general. Also to the
organization of Woman's clubs and to
the branching out of work done by
the church. He also spoke of the
advanced work in education, of the
organization of capital and also of
labor, and the effect of this. Through
out the paper he took very opti-
mistic view, and believed that in all the
change made, the world was improv :
ing. While the present trend seemed
in many ways to be toward social
ism, he did not believe the dreams
of the leaders in socialist ideas, would
ever be reached, as he did not believe
they were practicable. but that the
best and most practical there was in
socialistic thought would be absorbed
as is the case at present.
W. W. Smith opened the discussi on
by emphasizing the points made in
the paper and touching upon one OF
two important features not mentioned
therein. A general discussion follow
ed, which showed a diversity of opin-
ion along many points as to the rea
benefits received from certain forces.
The last meeting for--the club yeal
will be held on Tuesday evening, May
18th, when. Geo. M. Palmer will read
a.paper on Opportunities for Develop
ment in Agriculture and Industry il
Minnesota, and J. R. Brandrup will
lead the discussion.

The party who sent the Minneapolis
Times ,..of Sunday, a column or two
of political talk between court
cases. ought to study the geography
of his state little to say the least.
He locates Congressman McCleary in
the Third district and says that "Jim
Larson is "ferninst" Bowling 70
congress because the speaker permitted
Redwood county to be detached from
the Third district and placed in the
Seventh. The Times man mixes other
things up in his political talk be-
tween court cases. equally bad, and
if it were not for the fact that the
writer gives every evidence of being a
total stranger to the whole situatio n
it might be charitable to excuse his
inaccurate statements on the ground
that The had partaken of something
else. besides political talk" between
cases. We might even forgive every
thing else, but when the Times man
comes down to Mankato to "talk poll
tics between court cases. and locates
Representative Nyquist in Blue Earth
City, our indignation at his glowing
ignorance cannot be assuaged. A man
who will assume to write politics,
even "between court cases. to q
great metropolitan paper that pretendf
to give all the news in accurate and
interesting form, and not get anything
correct, should be requested to look
for another boarding house.

CLEANING HOUSE.
The New One is Located at
Kas0ta.
Hubbard Milling Co. Lets the Contract
for a Modern and Spacious
Plant.

The Hubbard Milling Co. has de-
cided to locate its new cleaning house,
that is to succeed the one that was
recently destroyed by fire at Lake
Crystal, at Kasota. 1t was influenced
in the decision by the wishes of the
railroad companies. The choice lay
between Mankato and Kasots, but the
wards in this city were considered
by the roads insufficient to handle the
large business of a cleaning house,
and there was not room to enlarge the
yards.
At Kasota there is plenty of room,
and the location decided upon is half
a mile south Of the depot between the
Omaha and North Western tracks.
Plenty of sidetracks are to be put in,
TO accommodate the cars in waiting,
which often number 100.
The contract for the construction OF
the buildings has already been award
ed TO the W. s. Cleveland Elevator
Building Co. of Minneapolis, which
will begin at once and must have the
contract completed by Aug. 1st.
The cleaning house is to be AZ by "a
feet, and 1O3 feet high, with sheds on
each side extending the entire length
of the building and II feet wide.
There will be a basement underneath,
and a Humphrey elevator will run to
the top CT the structure. The build
ing will be frame one, of crib con.
strucrion, and the sides and roof will
be covered with galvanized steel. II
will be equipped with Day dust col
Letting system throughout.
x,;lI ok no q h0ngl
built of brick, AZ by 90 feet, one story
nigh. with a brick smoke stack 90
feet, high. This building will be
equipped with two boilers, 90 inches
by Is feet, and one 200 horse power
engine.
The elevator will be completely
equipped with the best and mos
modern grain cleaning machinery
made, and the whole plant will be one
of the best of its kind in the state. Il
will be equipped for handling every
K ind of grain, and its cleaning ca
pacity will be forty cars a day. The
storage capacity will be 126, 0Ot
bushels. Two 100 ton track scales
will be put in, and there will be traci
room for 100 cars.
L. M. Abbott, who had charge OF
the company's cleaning house at Lake
Crystal for ten years, will have charg'
of the new plant, and four former
employees from Lake Crystal will b
given employment. AS many more
men will be employed as are needed,
and the plant could be operated day
and night if necessary.
The company will be much bette,
situated as regards a cleaning plant
than ever before, when the new plan
is in operation, as it will be we'll ant
conveniently located, large enough TO
all demands upon it, and thorough.
modern. The Hubbard Milling Co
is never satisfied with anything bu
the best.

COUNTY MUST PAY.
City's Primary Election Expense will
be Charged up.

The county must pay for the city's
primary election, according to an
opinion rendered Tuesday by the city
legal department Of st. Paul. When
the bills for printing the primary
election ballots and for publis
sample ballot in the official news
paper were presented to Controller
McCardy he questioned the legality
of the claim and referred the case to
the official printer Ole Nelson.
Mr. Nelson in turn referred the bills
to the corporation attorney. the
primary election law, according to the
opinion, evidently contemplated that
city, county and state elections should
be held at the same time. The law
provides that all the expense of con:
Quoting the primary elections shall
be paid by the county except the ex.
pense of providing ballot boxes and
polling places and the pay of election
officials.
