Thunder Mountain

Boise, Idaho, June 2s.-According to
advices received today from Thunder
Mountain there have been some Import
ant developments near the Dewey mine,
in the section where are located the
Mammoth and Rockford group Of
claims, and where the most promising
showing in the district is made Devel-
opment work has demonstrated that
the claims in that section "go down;
that is, the lodges improve in size and
richness with depth. AS the formation
is very similar over the entire gold
fields the proving of this section is
looked upon as assuring the continuity
Of lodges throughout that immense
area. The result is that many who
were backward about investing on the
former surface showing are now join
ing the rush. Numerous strikes are
reported all over the gold fields. Some
of the lodges have been uncovered n
width of more than 200 feet.

BUSY BEES WILL
WORK AT
~ ST. LOUIS FAIR

Worlds Fair Grounds. st. Louis,
June 1.-THE liveliest live exhibit at
the Louisiana Purchase Exposition in
1904 will come from Colorado" Thus
spoke Van +. Rouse, the Colorado
Springs mine owner and capitalist, dur.
ing his visit to st. Louis this week with
the Colorado Worlds Fair Commission,
of which he is an active member THE
world generally knows that as a mining
country Colorado leads all nations on
the globe" continued Mr.. Rouse, "and
this has naturally created the impress.
sion outside of Colorado that all the
wealth of our magnificent State is hid
den underground. Our exhibits at tho
Worlds Fair will show Colorado to ha
not only great in mining. but that it
is a world-leader in horticulture ana
agriculture.
THE Worlds Fair management in
their plan and scope of the Exposition
declared they wanted live exhibits, so
in casting about for plans to make our
exhibit conform to that idea we inter-
ested one of our wealthiest and most
public spirited citizens, Mayor Swink
of Rocky Ford. Mr.. Swink is an
apiarist, and he has, perhaps. the larg-
est bee plant in America. He is going
to bring his bees to the Worlds Fair,
and they will work here from the time
the Exposition opens until 1t closes.
Mr.. swink's plan, which will cost fully
$4,000 Of his own money is to bring
to st. Louis enough beehives to con-
struct In miniature a counterpart of
the Colorado State House at Denver.
The bees will then be turned out to find
material for honey-making in the
country surrounding the Worlds Fair
grounds. 1t will require about $40
hives to construct the little state
House and in 1t about Ave and one-hals
million bees will work. II will be a
great exhibit. In Colorado we have
the finest honey in the world. Wa
have one bee man who works his bees
all the year through. In summer they
work in his alfalfa fields in Colorado
and in the fall he ships them to his plan
tation in Florida. where they work
among the flowers and orange groves
until time to return them to the West
In the spring.
In Colorado we have each year n
Watermelon Day at Rocky Ford, a
Potato Day at Greeley, a Strawberry
Day at Canon City and Fruit Day at
Grand Junction. These are holidays,
and all Colorado turns out to the cele-
brations. In 1901 these celebrations
will be held in st. Louis, and we expect
to bring a good many trainloads OF
people here to participate in them. and
on these days Colorado fruit will be as
free as water for those who celebrate
, with u.s."
The Colorado exhibit will cost a to-
tai of 100000. The commissioners ap-
pointed by the Governor under the law
creating the Worlds Fair Commission,
have so far refused TO draw on the
State appropriation for their services,
preferring to leave the money in the
treasury to be used in making the ex-
hibit,

Town had man on third and one. on

threw it too low to first, allowing the
two men to score. This was in the
fifth inning and was the only time an
Old Town man crossed the plate.
But Old Town has a pretty warm
team just the same. Excellent judg-
ment has been used in the selection Of
the men and records have been over
hauled pretty thoroughly before they
have been signed. The team will be a
heavy hitter and much more danger

It's fielding was rather loose, Saturday,
eight errors being made. Fairfield bat
ted fairly well and played fine field
ing game, two bad throws being the
only things to go in the error column.
Smith played great game at third, ac-
cepting six chances without a slip and
getting two hits and a run at the bat.
Flood also got a couple of nice hits out
of two times at bat. Fairfield played
a clean, hard game at pace that rath-
