state WIN Not Pay Demurrage.

The attorney general has rendered an
Informal opinion to the State Board OF
Control that the state will not have to pay
demurrage charges to the. railroad com
panies on account of delays in unloading
cars at the various state institutions, and
the state board has notified the superintend-
ents that bills for demurrage will not be
paid. The superintendents have had a
great deal Of trouble Of this kind, as the
railroad companies insist on delivering coal
in large quantities and the state institu-
lions are not prepared to care for 1t in
that way. In case an attempt is made to
collect demurrage charges from the state
a test will be made in court Of the liability
OF the state in such cases.

BACK from ChristenIng.

Governor Cummins and party OF state
officials and others returned this morning
from the christening of the cruiser Des
Moines at Quincy, Mass. The trip was in
every way enjoyable and made without
accident or incident. The cruiser was
launched according to program and Miss
Macomber of this city won praise for her
becoming conduct. The party was royalty
entertained while in the east, at Boston and
New York. The entertainment at clubs and
elsewhere was very complimentary to the
Iowa party.

is the Mint, which is established on
Nuuanu street, opposite Queen

where general manager McDonough
and his corps of assistants are at
work. The cool and large lanai is
proper resting place and the vaults,
where the "bars" to be minted and

from there states that he unders TODD

tempting to nullify the efforts of the
Weiser people to gain Portland aid

was not in every way reliable, we
would be inclined to doubt the posi-
bility of such despicable methods on
the part of any community in the

CRIPPLE CREEK
DEPOPULATED

Leadville, Colo, May 2.-As a
result of the rush to the Thunder
Mountain mining district Cripple
Creek, the famous Colorado gold
camp, is rapidly becoming depopu-
lated, according to information that
reaches here. Within the past six
weeks 5000 miners have left the
camp to travel the snow covered path
to Thunder Mountain. According
to the statement of H. W. Menden-
hall, travelling man at the Keynon,
who has just come from Cripple
Creek, the camp looks almost for
saken in some places.

operations in the camp are beginning
to feel the effects of the exodus

money together to get out OF th'
place is packing up to make the rusi

Greatest Gold Camp in the World.
b. R, L. Poston, from Thunder
Mt. states to the Boise Statesman
that on his way out he met from 100
to 150 prospectors going in, and in
one place he saw 25 or 30 head of
horses and mules down with the
snow two feet above their backs. A
few horses had been abandoned and
shot.
Work in the great camp was NOV
ing along in all directions, he said,
although provisions were decidedly
scarce. At the Dewey mine five men
we're at work but they were out of
sugar, fruit, milk and butter. They
had enough -four and meat to last
until July. He thought there we're
from 200 to $50 men in the district
and all were at work. Many gold
strikes are being made by men doing
assessment work on their claims.
He saw no one but what was en-
couraged with what the slight de-
velopment work showed. A strip =
mile wide had been staked to White
Pass, distance of 10 miles south
from the Dewey mine. He saw some
ore taken out Of 10-toot prospect
, holes nearly four miles southwest
Of the Dewey mine that was certain
{ ly just as good, and appeared to be
the same thing.
Mr.. Posten says he will not star
t back until he can go with horses,
and that will not be until the last o.
D May.
8 He said that T. A. Campbell, {
brother-in-law of Frank and FREQ

during the night This is not
through fear of animals, but to keep
the fire burning; otherwise frostbIt-
ten extremities would result, as the
temperature falls considerably during
the night.
"Deer are plentiful on Big creek
and no one need go hungry for fresh
venison. 1t was while hunting deer
that Frank Peck made the recent
strike on Big creek, three miles be-
low the mouth of Monumental. He
discovered 60 foot ledge which is
free milling on the surface.
In my opinion not many people
will reach Thunder Mountain before
June /. The snow is soft along all
the trails and this means that pack
horses can not be taken in. Men
who get in now have hard travel and
can not take in supplies enough to
last over two weeks. Men are com
ing out all the time, and though there
are dozens along the routes, the
population will not be materially In
creased until pack trains can get in
and out regularly.
On the train from Boise the othel
evening, a conservative appearing
gentleman from Illinois stated tina
there was every indication that ther
would be no less than 10, 600 person
leave that state for Idaho in the mex
two or three months.
