MINING NOTES..

Itisreported another zinc mine
has been located in Crittenden
county, near Marion, and that
bright prospects are ahead for
the company in control.
1t is believed that several Of
our coal operators will spend
Thanksgiving day at Louisville,
where the fraternal attractions
are great for that day.
Mitchell claims he does not in
dorse boycotts, yet he admits
they are sometimes resorted to
by the organization he is said TO
represent. 1t is strange that he
is the chosen leader and don't
wear the bell, but we notice one
thing, that when success crowns
the efforts of the agitators they
are anxious to wear the crown
and when failures rest upon their
efforts no one can be found to
father them. When Mitchell
found his strike in the East was
failure, he was quick to rush
into print to deny he ordered it,
and when boycotts become un-
popular he takes stand against
them when talking for public
print, while the organization
over which he rules openly
adopts that mode of striking a
blow in the dark. Why is he
not honest enough to admit that
he favors anarchy pure and SIM
pie if necessary to gain a point?
Scarcity of coal cars, to use a
slang expression, makes Fore
man Fegan ''redheaded," and
even his most intimate friends
seek seclusion when there are
but few cars on the mine tracks.
"Jeems" likes to see the men
get full days work.
Mechanical Engineer ID. W.
Umstead and able assistants
have been busy the past week
putting up a new engine at the
Hecla mine.
Wyman Watts, formerly an
employe of the st. Bernard Min
ing Company, lost two of his
fingers in an accident at Madi-
sonville last Saturday. The fin
gers were caught in machinery.
Somebody has had the audacity
to say that r. j. Salmon could
have made a better showing in
the late election If he had been
able to poll the full vote at lis
ley. AS it was, he leads the
county, and yet Dick is not sat
isfed.
The Courier-J Journal of last
Sunday contained a full page ar
Gle, well illustrated, telling Of
the lead and zinc mining devel'
opment of Crittenden county.
improvements of some import
ance are said to be contemplated
by the officers of the newly or
ganized United States Coal Com
pany, of Sturgis, formerly the
Paducah Coal Company's prop
erty. The plant will be enlarg-
ed and fleet of barges added
for transporting coal to Southern
markets.

SLEPT
IN HISTORIC HOUSE
BOAST BROUGHT ARREST.
Andrew Haskins Got Himself Into
Trouble by ProcIaimins Staying
Ability.

Pittsburg, August 27.-Boasting in
Philadelphia that he had killed wom-
ar and would kill another, Andrew
Haskins, negro, gave the Pittsburg
Irlice a clew that led to his arrest
Tuesday. The murder he Dragged
Of was committed in Allegheny county.
and last evening Detective James
Steele, Of Allegheny, went to Philadel'
phia with a corOners commitment,
charging Haskins with the murder Of
Ella Dennis, negress, at Dooker's
Hollow, October S, 1899.
Haskius has been sought for by
Pittsburg officers since the crime was
committed, but although he has been
heard from frequently he eluded ar
rest. Moday Superintendent Henry
Muth, Of Allegheny, received a tele
gram from Harry M. Quirk, superin
tendent Of police Of Philadelphia, say.
ing that Haskins was in that city and
had boasted of killing q woman. Oct
2 Der 8, 1899, a coroner's jury held an
inquest in the case of Ella Dennis
and recommended that Haskins be
reid to await the action Of the grand
jury on a charge of murder.
Tuesday morning Superintendent
Muth telegraphed to Philadelphia the
details of the affair, and last evening
received another communication say
ing that Haskins was under arrest
'rhe prisoner will be brought to Pitts
Iurg.
The murder Of Ella Dennis created
a considerable sensation. She was 80
years old and lived near Turtle Creek
She was found in her home October l
with evidences of having been beaten
with a club. She was removed to the
Woodville County home, where Oct
ober she died. Her story was that
Haskins was her sweetheart. He
Iuarreled with her and then left the
house. Procuring a club, he returned
and renewed the quarrel.

Funeral Obsequies.
He MAD A NEPHEW WITH HIM

Chicago, August 27.-Peculiar cir
eumstances surrounding the reported
death of Philetus Jones, represented
as a Boston millionaire and engaged IN
q large real estate deal in Chicago,
came to the notice Of the police yes
-erday. Notices in last Saturdays
papers told of the sudden death OF Mr.
Jones from heart disease, at the res
:dence of a nephew, on Astor street,
out neither the name Of the nphew nor
the street number was given. The po'
lice have found no one here who knew
Mr.. Jones excepting John A. I. Lee,
through whom, as agent, Mr.. Jones
was reported to be negotiating the
purchase of certain property.
BY Mr. Lee it was said that the
hudy had been shipped to Boston, but
no rec6fd of the death can be found
IN the health department offices here,
uor have the officials issued permit
f,r the removal of the body from the
state. Lee says that Mr.. Jones was
accompanied by nephew, Mr.. Alton
by name. Mr.. Lee says that an agree
I0ent to purchase the property within
4 specified time was signed by Jones
and that on August % he received a
note from Alton announcing the death
Of Jones, in which it was said the
body would be taken to Boston and
that after the funeral Alton would re-
turn and complete the purchase.
Lee said Mr.. Jones was tall man
with gray hair, mustache and beard
He was 73 years old. The police
l. armed that the house at 142 Astor
street, in which Lee said Jones had
lived, had been sold recently by the
former owners to a stranger. The
doors and windows Of the house were
locked. and it bore every evidence of
having been closed for the summer
Neighbors said they did not know the
new occupants of the house, but they
were positive no funeral had been
held there, and that no body had beer
iaken away unless it had been done
secretly. The detectives will investl'
gate further the sale Of the Astor
street residence, and if shall be
fol nd to have been sold to Jones, ii
may be broken into and searched.
D. f. Thomas, an attorney. says
that Lee was indebted to him for
lucney loaned, legal fees and office
relt, and to satisfy this debt Lee hal
assigned s1.1O0 of commission to be
received in the Jones real estate deal.
The police have theory that Philetus
Jones Is myth.
