The announcement that consider
able force of additional British
troops is about to be sent to Ireland
to aid the thousands already there
and the thousands of the royal Irish
constabulary in enforcing the coer-
sion act brings Ireland once more to
the front in British politics. Ac-
cording to reports the new troops,
which will consist of English and
Scotch soldiers, will be sent to Ire
land within a month, and then the
old policy of suppression which has
become familiar to readers of the
history of Ireland will be resumed.

The Cubans seem to show little in

in insisting on separate sovereign

over annexation. But they must have
their fling first.

During the past few months the
prices of meat have been raised in an
apparently arbitrary manner. While
it is true that the farmers are re-
ceiving high prices for their stock,
most of the profits go into the hands
of the packers. The law of supply
and demand does not explain the cost
to consumers.

story is that of the Lost Packer.
A man lost his way in the Loon
creek mountains, together with
his pack animals, at the time the
mines were being worked. In
his wanderings he cam upon the
outcroppings of a ledge freely
sprinkled with gold. He took
samples and made his way to
civilization, but despite all eff
forts could never refund the spot.
Driven insane by long and fruit
less search, Che was confined for
two years in an asylum at Deer
Lodge, Mont, but when released
resumed the search, and the last
known of him he was wandering
again in those lonely mountains
seeking for the lost bonanza. I
do not recall his name, but the
old timers speak of him as the
lost packer, and vouch for the
golden'specimens he had in his
possession.
Having heard the story, l
named my discoveries in that
locality the Lost Packer claims.
When | made the find was some
miles from camp. The surround
ings looked weird and suggested
the name. l filed my pockets
with the rock, and when / pan
ned it that evening in camp the
boys gave hurrah that made
the hills ring, for the paintings
were yellow with gold. Excite
ment began at once, and though
that was little more than three
months ago, everything is locat-
ed within radius of several
miles surrounding the Lost
Packer.
81 soon sold it for $4,000 to
parties here in Salt Lake, but do
not suppose it could be bought
for an independent fortune now,
as the ore is proving extensive
and averaging over 5000 per ton.
They are making no especial eff
fort to get out ore this winter,
but have, on estimate, about
$4,000 worth already sacked,
though only two men are engag-
ed in sacking, and the excava-
ton would not square twenty
feet. The ore is principally free
milling, but carload is being
brought here for thorough test
at the smelter. We expect a
great boom in that section, and
look to Salt Lake as our natural
metropolis"
In addition to being a pros
pector, Mr.. Eddy is publishing a
book of poems to appear this
month. Samples brought down
by the visitor are abundant with
colors, while a carload of them
ought to yield a small fortune. -
