NEW TRAIN SCHEDULE.
win Go Into Operation Beginning
 Next Sunday.

Superintendent Hopson of the Naugatuck division announces a num- Der of changes in the time of running trains, the new schedule to go into op- eration next Sunday. An important change will be the arrival of the early morning freight from down the road at All instead of 5:1S.
 A new passenger train leaves Bridgeport at a. m., reaching this city at 7:14. The train leaving Bridgeport at 7:O5 will reach Water bury at S:23 instead of S:36. The one leaving New Haven at will ar rive at 9:05 instead of 9:12. The train leaving Bridgeport at 9:45 and arriv- ing here at 11:12, will, after October 19, leave at $40 and arrive at 1O:55. No 1922 will leave Bridgeport at 2:25 as now, but will arrive here at $40, instead of $50. The train leaving Beacon Falls at 6 D. m for this city will be dropped, and a new train leav- ing New Haven at 5:25 will arrive here at 6:30. The one leaving Bridge port at 5:35 will remain, reaching this city at 6:45, and eliminating stops. No 123O will continue to leave Bridge port at 7:30, but will arrive at S:4S, in
 
 remains as it is.
 The south bound trains also show interesting changes. At present the one that arrives here from New Ha- ven at 12:30 a. m. returns only as far as Ansonia. It will run to New Ha- ven, leaving Waterbury at 1 a. m. and connecting at New Haven with the express for New York. The 6:35 re- mains as before, but there will be no change of cars in Bridgeport. The one leaving at SIP will leave at 7:55. and connections in Bridgeport for New York will be much better. No l2O9 will leave at 11:13 instead of lO:5O, which saves a wait in Bridge port. No 1213 will leave at 1:4O in- stead of 1:30, and No 1217 at 3.O5 in- stead of 2:44. Both these changes add time to this end and save waiting 1n Bridgeport. The train leaving for New Haven at 4:45, instead of being discontinued, as usual at this time of year, will remain and leave at 40 The train now leaving at eos will leave at 6:15, and make the same con nections. The best change of all is the abolition of the present "7:2O D m.," which has been a byword. and the substitution of fast train Ieayins 1 at and reaching New Haven two minutes earlier than the old train.

THE WOOD TRUST

Writer Thinks Farmers Should Not ..Lift the Mortgage i'll One Season.
 October 13, 1902. To the Editor of the Democrat:
 Your article in to-night's issue con- corning the high price farmers are charging for wood is certainly a very good one. The people of Waterbury could start fighting trusts right here in the city. It is all very well for the farmers to try and lift the mortgage but in the meantime lei them think of the poor people in this city who need fuel as they need food and the farmers may need their pat. ronage some day.

FIRE THIS MORNING.
Supposed to Be Set, by Tramp Sleeping
 in Cellar


 in Cellar.
 The sounding of fire alarm box 21 called the department at 6 o'clock this morning to the house at 221 North Elm street, where a fire was merrily blazing in the cellar. The house is owned by Stephen Bowen and is occupied by the family of E. R. Snagg., The cellar Is filled with partitions and the firemen had some little difficulty in getting at the blaze. Several streams of water were turned on and hole had to be cut in the floor before it was extin- guished. The damage will be slight. The cause of the fire is mystery. Some of the neighbors claim that a tramp had been sleeping in the cellar and that he was seen leaving there this morning shortly before the fire was discovered and that he was smoking a pipe at the time. From what was said about there this morning it will be well for that tramp to seek another sleeping room.

FROM THUNDER MOUNTAIN
Sherwood McCibbon Thinks II is an Old
Volcanic Crater.
NEVER DREAMED OF SUCH WEALTH
Has More Mineral Wealth than the
States of Colorado and
Montana Combined.

Sherwood McGibbon, one Of the
well-known prospectOrs OF this
section is in town from his quartz
properties on Crooked river, and is
negotiating a deal for these claims,
referred to elsewhere, to Messrs.
Otto and Lowery, of Kaslo, B. G..
Mr.. McGibbon spent the summer
in the Thunder Mountain country
and made some locations which
are only 600 feet from the Dewey
properties which were recently
purchased from the Caswell boys
for $4,000 cash. He aud Ike
Maxwell got in the new camp
early in June, and would have
made other locations but for the
sickness Of Maxwell, which took
such a turn that Mr.. McGibbon
had to bring him out to Crooked
river. In a conversation with the
FREE PRESS Mr.. McGibbon said
that the mineral wealth of the
Thunder Mountain country conld
not be over-estimated from what
he saw of it during his stay in the
camp. He thinks the site of the
big mining discovery is the crater
of an old volcano, as the deposits
consist of shale, slate, porphyry,
petrified wood, and a substance
that looks like stone coal, but it
will not burn, and is very hard to
pulverize, and it may be new
mineral Of some kind, although it
does not show any valuable con-
tents:
Mr.. McGibbon has spent all his
life in mining. and prospecting in
the mountain states, and says that
he never dreamed of such wealth
az is shown in the Thunder Noun
tain, Profile, Smith, Monumental
and other creeks adjacent. The
surface showings are simply phe-
nomenal, and he thinks that that
section has more mineral than the
states of Colorado and Montana
combined. He is expecting to
bond his Thunder Mountain in
terests in few days, as parties
are already negotiating for them at
a good sum, and knowing the
values of his Crooked river hold
ings he will be content to let the
Thunder m ountain claims go for a
reasonable sum and devote his
time and attention to these prop
critics, should the deal with Otto
and Lowery fall through.

Mining Investors Here.

Messrs. j. A. Otto> and Lowery
arrived here Monday from Kaslo,
B. c., on mining business. Mr..
Otto was here last month, at which
time he visited the properties Of
Sherwood McGibbon and Ike Max
well on Crooked river, and is now
here on a deal for their possession.
There is an SSfoot tunnel on these
properties, showing a ledge about
eleven feet wide of good values,
mainly in gold, with ore of the
same character as the other mines
in the Relief creek country. 1t is
likely that they will obtain a bond
on these claims. They are both
Americans, although operating
mines in British Columbia for Eng
fish people, which speaks well for
their character and ability as min
ing men. They are now on Salmon
river, inspecting other properties,
both quartz and placer, and on
their return will visit Buffalo
Hump, and from thence to Crooked
river to deal with Maxwell & Nc
Gibbon.
They consider Idaho county as 9
revelation from mining point o.
view, and had no idea before theil
arrival that the country was S,
big or had so many resources. w,
hope to welcome them as perman
ent citizens of this community il
due time.

A good deal OF quiet work has
been done in the mines OF Marshal
lake the past summer which prom
Uses to make quite an important
district out of that locality. One
ledge five feet thick has been ex-
posed showing values of so7 per
ton in gold, and other lodges OF
similar proportions and values.
A deal was closed Monday
whereby James l.. Miller of Den
yer purchased the fine ranch of
Edward Liston on Stock creek.
Mr.. Liston thereupon purchased
the old Clint Smith place on Cot
tonwood creek from the Holland
bank, OF Spokane. The trade was
consummated through the agency
of A. F. Parker, who is the To-
cal agent for the Holland bank in
this county.
Diphtheria is raging down in
Fremont county. Recently a
young lady died at Burton and it
was not known what allied her;
the remains were taken to the
church and the coffin was opened.
Later it was found out that the
young lady had diphtheria and
from this it spread all over the dis
trict. Six children in one family
died last week from the disease and
several more cases are reported.
Messrs. Clark. Case and Thomp-
son, of Butte, who spent last week
at the Evergreen property on the
south fork of Clearwater, arrived
from the mine last Saturday and
left for Butte Monday with several
hundred pounds Of ore from the
mine which they will have tested.
Upon the result of these tests de-
ponds the sale of the mine. The
gentlemen represented w. G. Clark
of Butte, son of Senator Clark,
and we hope that the deal will 60
through, as they are mining opera
tors from the turn loose, and will
make the dirt fly if they decide to
take hold.
Probate Judge Taylor, acting As
district judge pro tempore, was oc-
cupied nearly the whole Of last
week in hearing the case of Otto
Abeling who brought suit for the
recovery of a quarter interest in
the General Arthur claim, one of
the Evergreen Eureka group down
on the south Fork of Clearwater.
His honor on Thursday decided
against plaintiff. A second suit
involving the same property was
dismissed without prejudice The
settlement of this suit clears title
to the property, by which deal
with Governor Hunt and associ-
ates was blocked last fall. Mr..
Abeling is now in Cuba operating
some iron mines near Santiago for
a New York syndicate.

Hon. j. w. Reid Dead.

Last Thursday as we were going
to press the news came over the
phone that Hon. j. w. Reid. the
silver-tongued orator of the state,
had departed this life the preceding
day. Mr.. Reid has a host of
friends who have had their emo
tions stirred to the profoundest
depths by the magic tongue of this
gifted orator and brainy statesman.
The announcement that Mr.. Reid
was going to speak was sufficient to
pack the meeting places where he
discoursed. Few men in public
life in this country, where politics
absorbs the attention of SO many
brainy men, were better equipped
in the political arena than our
gifted friend. 1t was the good for
tune OF the writer to be among the
first to welcome Mr.. Reid to this
state when he arrived in the spring
O 1885, and from that day to this
we have watched his political
course with ever-increasi.g re-
spect. Unknown to him were the
arts Of the demagogue, and his
sympathies were always with the
poor, the down-trodden and the
oppressed. He was democrat
from deep-rooted conviction and
principle, and his magic tongue
never ceased the denunciation of
class legislation and vested interests
whose influence and power have
accumulated one-half of the wealth
of this great country in the hands
of twenty-seven men. Always
earnest and sincere. his power for
good government increased with
the lapse of time, and the demo-
cratic hosts who listened to the
siren tongue, now stilled in death,
have lost powerful advocate and
faithful friend. Peace to his ashes.
James Wesley Reid was born in
Rockingham county, North Caro-
lima, June II, 1S49. In his young
err days he was tutor at Emory and
Henry college, Va, and later was
several times in succession elected
treasurer of Rockingham county.
In 1884 he was elected to congress
to fill the unexpired term of A. M.
Scales, uncle of our county attor-
ney, Wallace N. Scales, and at the
expiration of the term he removed
to Lewiston, where he has since re-
sided, engaging in the practice of
law until the date of his death.
OF his political career it is sufficient
to state that he never sought Office,
although frequently rendered his
own choice of position in the con-
ventions of his party. He was
vice-president of the constitutional
convention in 1889, and was al
ways the leading figure in the state
conventions of his party. The
educational interests Of the state
have suffered grevious loss in the
death of Mr.. Reid, for much of his
valuable time was unselfishly de-
voted to the up-building Of the
higher institutions of learning in
this commonwealth, serving as a
regent of the state university, and
later, as trustee of the Lewiston
Normal school.
Mr.. Reid was a devoted adherent
