A BANK
ROBBERY
At ORWELL

Middlebury, Nov. 2s.-The First
National Bank Of Orwell was broken
into early yesterday morning by
burglars, and it is thought that 1t was
the same gang that worked Vergennes
last week. They gained admittance
to the bank by prying open one Of the
front windows OF the Office on Main
street. They blew open the door to
the vaults badly damaged the door
to the safe. 1t will require the serv.
ices Of experts to open it as the dial
and knobs are completely destroyed.
50 far nothing has been found miss
ing, but the papers were strewn
about the floor. The bank althorities
think that the work was done by pro.
fessionals. No traces were left for
their detection. The contents Of the
safe are thought to te all right.
Some Of the citizens Of the town
who live just north Of the village
claim to have heard the sounds Of
teams passing their homes between 8
and 4 O'Clock in the morning and 1t is
thought they were the escaping burg
lars.

The United States has declared

Old Abe Running.

The deal for the purchase OF
the Old Abe mine neceSSitated the
suspension of operations on that
property, pending the negotia-
tions and therefore the entire
force was thrown out of employ
ment. AS this great mine had
been, for years, the main stay of
the camp the closing of the work,
although for only a short period,
produced a marked influence on
the business of the community.
Work was suspended, only, for the
purpose of taking the necessary
inventory of the property and
making the few repairs thought
advisa bic by the new manage
ment.
Last Saturday work, in the
mine was resumed and Monday
the mill began to crush the ore
laden with its precious, yellow
metal and the accustomed SounC
of the whistle now, again echoes
through the surrounding canyons
and cheers the denizenS of thc
camp with its more than welcome
music.

Houses in Demand.

Houses to rent are scarce in
White Oaks and real estate is de-

sale is made. White Oaks is one
of the most desirable place in
the Southwest to live and many
people are finding out its advant-
ages, from the stand point of
climate, society, etc.

Their car was sidetracked at Car

White Oaks to inspect the Old

inspected the property of the

which yielded over $500 per ton

OLD ABE NOW RUNNING.
South Homestake to Start Soon.

Mr.. John Nj. Rice and Floyd
Parsons, of Parsons, arrived III
town last night, accompanied by
r. C. Sturgeon, Secy. and Treas.
of the Eagle Mining & Improve
ment Co. and Vice-Pres and
Treas. of the American Gold
Mining Co.
Our reporter interviewed MIR.
Sturgeon in reference to the re-
ported rich strike at the Amerl-
can last Saturday. and he stated
that a pocket was shot out IN one
of the slopes from which was
taken about S., 100000 in wire gold
and that another one of about the
same value was uncovered on
Tuesday near the same place.
Mr.. Sturgeon did not seem to at
tacfl much importance to these
two pockets, remarklng that they
were merely incidental to the
S@orking of any mine. He stated,
however, that the American is
now taking ore from vein three
feet wide which will run at least
$4,000 per ton. He showed us a
panning from a shot sack full OF
ore from the heading of this vein
which seemed to have at least a
dollar in coarse gold.
Mr.. Sturgeon stated that it is
the policy of both the Eagle ant
American companies to operate
their various plants on strictly
up-to-date lines, and add to thei
equipment by Installing moderl
machinery as rapidly as possible
He expressed himself as hlghl,
pleased with the Old Abe an'
South Homestake properties, tn
former of which was started las
Monday, and is running "a hour
per day. The Eagle Co, expect
to start the South Homestak
Just as soon as necessary epair
are completed, which will be in
very short time.
White Oaks eagle. (White Oaks, N.M.) 189?-190?, 1902-09-25

The deal having been fully con-
sumated the Eagle mining and
Improvement company took
charge as above stated and will
at an early day add, largely to
the milling plant and will then
increase the output to from three
to five times its present produc-
ton. While there remains large
quantities of high grade ore in
the Old Abe, the increase Contem-
plated in the plant will enable
the company to, not only work
the richer ores, but will make it
possible to mine and mill the i'm
mense bodies of lower grades, at
a satisfactory profit, as with the
augmented production the aCdi-
tional expense will hardly be no.
ticed.
Again, the company acquired
the valua bic coal mines of the
former owner, which cannot be
surpassed in quantity and quality
of coal, in the West. This will
become the point of the large
electric plant where the power,
not only for the propelling of the
machinery at the Old Abe mine
and mill, but also for the works
near Nogal and at Parsons where
the Eagle company has acquired
and is operating the extensive
and valuable mining properties
of those localities.
: In view of all the conditions
the purchase of the Old Abe
properties demonstrated the wis
, dom, foresight and business dis
elimination of the management
l of the Eagle company and while
the added Importance and 1ncreas

derive from the change, the pur'

THE DEATH ROLL
A Good Woman Passes
Away.

wife of Frederick Mayer, after
an illness of several weeks, passed
out of this life. A group of four
little ones, the oldest a girl not
yet ten, and the youngest boy
of four, are left motherleSs, and
a devoted husband, wifeless. Mrs.
Mayer was still in the blush of
young womanhood when she was
called to part from her beloved
group. Born on June End, 1878,
she came to White Oaks in the
days of her girlhood in the spring
of 1891, and was married to Fred
erick Mayer January 2nd, 1892.
This death was one of those
events which cast a gloom over
the whole community. But it is
out of the gloom and the sorrows
of such events that the best and
truest elements of human nature
spring. And this was manifest
ed by the relations and friends
and neighbors of the bereaved
family. The funeral took place
on Tuesday afternoon at the Con-
gregational Church, and was
conducted by the pastor, DR..
Miller. The service was solemn
and impressive. The hymns sung
by the choir were: Nearer My
God to Thee" "Asleep in Jesus;"
"Sleep on Beloved and Take Thy
Rest" The selections from the
Scriptures were all expressive of
comfort and hope. DR.. Miller pre-
faced his remarks by quoting the
poem of Miss Lille E: Borr:
Eyes that have wept and watched for years,
No more shall ye be dimmed by tears;
Your vigil pow shall others keep
'Tis only OPEN eyes that weep!
Oh heart! so good, so true!
There is no trouble in the grave;
No care, that dreamless sleep to wake;
'Tis only BEATING hearts that break!
Hands crossed so humby on thy breast
Poor weary hands Ye now have rest;
, Willie death hath purified your soul,
'Tis only LIVING hands that TOLL
"This sleep is life" said he, and
the awakening shall be, "The
birth of Immortality" The key
, to the address, were the words
of Jesus, in John IA: Let not
, your heart be troubled, ye believe
in God"
The church was filled with
friends, who wished to express in
this service their sympathy with
n the family, and their remember
= ance for the one called away
a The interment was in the K of I
e cemetery very large part o.
n the people joining in the process
Y ion. At the grave the choir
: again sung, Jesus Lover of NJ,

the people dispersed.
