Then. after instructing the jury upon
whom the burden of proof lies regard
ing the issues submitted and explain
ing the definitions of vein. lode. dip.
strike. fssure, etc, the judge con
tinued:
I instruct you that what constitutes
the top or apex and the strike
or course and dip Of vein are
questions Of law to be determined by
the court. and it is your duty to regard
nv determination upon these points as
binding upon you; but whether a given
portion of the lode or vein is upon the
dip or along the apex of the lode or
vein, or what is the course or strike of
the vein or lode, are questions of fact
which have been submitted for your
determination in the special issues
heretofore read TO you. ana of which
a copy will be given to you before you
retire.
As to the Apex.
1.-The court further instructs the Jury
that if vein be found in a fissure the
TOP or apex of any part of the vein
is found by following up the vein on
its dip 10 the highest point at which
vein matter is found in the assure: if
the fissure go TO the surface but does
not contain vein matter until it has
been followed down for some distance.
the point at which vein matter begins
must be considered the apex. BY vein
matter in this connection I mean rock
or earth containing mineral in quaint
ties appreciably greater than is found
in the surrounding country
THE parties to the controversy have
agreed that you should receive the fol-
lowing instruction. namely: That a vein
or lode is liable to have barren spots
and narrow places. as we'll as rich
chimneYs and pay "chutes,' or large
deposits of valuable ore, and if the jury
believe from the evidence that such
pay chutes exist in this vein they
should not be considered as changing
the strike or dip of the vein. but as de-
pOsits of pay ore within the vein.
Both parties have agreed that you
should receive the following instruction.
namely: That by the issues submitted
it is conceded that the ore bodies lying
under the Silveropolis and Consort
mining claims. and in controversy IN
this action are in a vein or lode. and
are conceded to be in the same vein or
lode. and the jury should disregard any
claims of witnesses. if any such there
be, that these ore occurrences are not
in a vein or lode"

DEATH OF MRS ABORTION.
Succumbs After a Long Battle With
Disease.

The long and unequal battle which
Mrs. Lydia J. AIbritton. the wife of the
Rev. J. L. AlbrittOn of the First Meth
Odist church, has been waging against
disease for months past, came to an
end yesterday afternoon in the death
of the patient. For weeks the end has
been expected at almost any minute,
but with exceptional vitality Mrs. AL
brittOn withstOOd the raVages of the
compiled tons of diseases from which
she was suffering until ( o'clock yes
terday afternoon. For twenty-four
hours before her death she lay uncon-
scious. but passed away without a
struggle.
The death of Mrs. AIbritton marks
the passing of a woman who was hon
Ored and beloved by all who met her
Although she had been in this city but
a comparatively short time. she had
gathered many friends about her who
vii be deeply grieved to learn Of her
death.
Mrs. Albritton was born in Kentucky

her husband from Toledo. O., TO Butte

east About a year and a half ago she
was attacked with Brights disease.
which assumed a dropsical form, and
also resulted in organic affection of the
heart In the hopes Of benefiting her
health Mr. Albritton came with his
wife to Salt Lake last September. Since
that time Mrs. Albritton has been on
a steady decline, and about four
months ago was so i'll that the doctors
said she could not live but few days.
She rallied and took a turn for the
better. but about a week ago bronchial
pneumonia developed and FASTENED the
death of the patient. During her last
illness Mrs. Albritton seemed to realize
that death was near, and made all ar
rangements for her funeral and burial.
She requested a private funeral and
asked that no eulogy be pronounced
over her, and that nothing save the
simple Methodist ritual be performed
The deceased was woman who
made friends wherever she went, and
was always a popular leader in literary
circles where she has lived. She was
always ready to take hold Of any work
that presented itself. and was always
faithful to her duties in the church of
her faith. She leaves a husband and
two sons to mourn her loss.
The funeral Will be held from the
First Methodist church next Wednes-
day afternoon at 2:30 o'clock The ser
vices will be conducted by the Rev. j.
L. Leilich. the presiding bishop.
