pany, is a pioneer mining man of the Clear
Greek mining district and has had possess
sion of the property for more than dozen
years. He has had chances to dispose of
this property on more than one occasion,
but was never willing to part with it to
people he did not place confidence in.
Fred G. Shaffer, the secretary and
treasurer, is well known to the newspaper
fraternity of the state. He was for years
editorial writer on the Denver Times, but
for the last two years has been the editor
of Siftings. He is also secretary of the
Argus Tunnel company, which is con-
Quoting operations up Chicago Greek.

Old And Youngl Turn OutI

Samantha At The Court of Fame
which will be presented at the opera
house this friday evening, promises to
be one of the pest entertainments ever
given by home talent in this city. Miss
Harris who has charge of the performance.
and who has been instrumental in having
it produced in nearly all the large cities
of the United States, says that she finds
the young people in this city who will
take part have more ability than in any
place she has ever been.
In nearly every case Miss Harris makes
arrangements to give the play two even
ings in order that a crowded house NAV
greet the performers on the second night
but on account of engagements ahead
time will not permit her to remain in the
city any longer.
The entertainment is given for the
benefit of the Ladies of the Maccabees
and they have spared no pains to make the
affair grand success. 1t promises to be
well attended, and every one should make
an attempt to be present and encourage
the young people who are to take part.

Strike In The New Era.

The New Era Mining and Milling
company announce that they will COM
mence operating their mill in a short
time. J. R. Elgan, secretary and Gener-
al Manager of the Company was in the
district during the last week and while
here made arrangements for the pushing
of work on the property. He visited the
premises and found that nearly forty feet
had been driven in the main tunnel dur
ing the last month, and that already
enough ore was in the slopes to keep the
mill running for months to come A new
ore body has been opened up which is
four feet in width, and carries a streak of
lead of about four inches. 1t is thought
that it will increase as work progresses, as
will also the values.
The company has a mill of DO tons ca
pacity daily and it is said to be the most
economically managed in the district
One man with little assistance will be
able to operate the mill when the inn
provements are completed. An automatic
shoot will be constructed down to the
foot of the gulch where the ore will be
convenient for loading. The tunnel is
now in more than 100 feet, and work is
being pushed as rapidly as possible.
1t is the intention of Mr.. Elgan to
make some Improvements in the mill, and
if indications warrant the capicity will be
doubled.

How About That Milla

The miners in and around Lawson have
not given up the idea of securing a mill,
and to that end are still laboring in the
hopes that some capital can be induced to
erect a concentrating plant. If there was
ever mining camp that was deserving of
anything it is Lawson. There is plenty
ore in the district and years ago it was
known as a producer.
The first man who is seeking place for
the erection of a mill will do well if he
visits this camp. There is plenty of
water and power could be obtained easily.
There are several old dumps which would
pay handsomely. Years ago when gold
in the ores was not thought of, rich ores
were thrown over the dumps, and it is
estimated that there is enough on the
dumps to keep a mill running for years.
Recently several small propositions have

TRAINED TEAMS CROSS BATS.
Professional and Business Men Will Mix
1t Up Today.

1t certainly looks as though the pro-
fessional men were going to take advan-
tage of the business men when the two
teams cross bats on the grounds below
town. If there is one thing lawyer or
doctor knows how to do well it is to work
a business man. Although the business
man may make charges galore on his
books it is not safe proposition for him
to ask an opinion of a doctor or lawyer
The bill will be rendered the first of the
month and no matter how much is
charged on the grocers' or butchers
books it will be more than offset.
The game this afternoon promises to
furnish lots of amusement for the "fans"
Both teams have been selected with great
care, and it has been fully decided that
only seven innings are to be played.
As will be seen the business men are
represented by battery composed of two
brothers, the Messrs. George and Walter
Moscript. This in itself would be enough
to cause an ordinary mortal to gasp, but
not SO the lawyers. Attorney Sabin, who
is to captain the professional men, says
no matter if his nine does get shut out
for four or five innings, they will come
out winner. He figures that they can
tire the business men out, and in the
course of events pound out enough safe
hits to win the game. OF course it must
be understood that only a lawyer would
figure that way. Perhaps though they
are going to have the doctors dope the
battery.
The lineup will be as follows:
Business Men. Professional Men,
George Moscript, pitcher E. M. Sabin, cap

STRIKE
IN THE
ALPINE
Twenty Eight Inches of Wire Silver Ore
Encountered.

A big strike was made in the Consoli-
dated Alpine property this week, which
carries a four to ten inch streak of lead
and zinc ores, giving an average assay of
5000 to the ton. The strike was made in
driving the level west from the shaft at a
depth of I66 feet. Eighty feet farther on
twenty-eight inches of smelling ore was
opened up which carries wire silver, and
runs $500 to the ton.
This is the biggest strike made since
the days of the Lamartine, and men who
are working on the property say that it is
even larger than the one made in that
mine
When the ore was opened up there was
premises. One man who is working for
the company at once purchased 1000
shares of stock in the company from
Manager Grow.
Active work is being done in sinking
the shaft. 1t is now down 245 feet and is
following a strong and highly mineralized
vein. Shipments have been made from
the property, and the returns were more
than satisfactory.
In addition to the smelling ore which
has been opened up, it is said there is
about three feet of mineral lying along
the shoots, and that all will pay hand
somely to handle
Seventeen men are employed on the
property and it is the intention of Mana
ger Grow to lose no time in pushing
developing work.
The Alpine is located east of the Lamar
tine in the Cascade and Trail Greek dis
tricts, and while the course of the vein is
the same as that of the Crown, it is the
opinion of the manager that it will prove
to be parallel vein.
Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas B. Crow left yes
terday for Evansville, Indiana, where
Mr.. Grow will make report to the direc-
tors of the company. The head officers
of the company are located in Evans
vile and nearly all the stockholders
reside in that city.

Hunbolt Hill.

The King Solomon shaft is now down
800 feet and work is being pushed as rap
idly as possible.
There are large number of prospectors
in the camp and many promising propo-
sitions are being opened up.
The cross cut on the Hattie Emmett is
rapidly being driven to its terminus
where they expect to cut the rich vein of
the mine.
The rown Syndicate company is work
ing steadily on its properties. A large
force of men are at work and it is said
they are i'll good ore.
Maxton Bros. have very fine streak of
ore in the Charter Oak on the Summit of
Humbolt Hill, which they have just re-
Gently cut and which is liable to make
their mine regular shipper.
Miss Nora Callie and Master Harri-
son Weber came up from Denver this
week to remain with their papa for few
of the hot summer days, in the most
charming Ute creek summer resort in
Colorado.
One of the lessees in the Lamartine
mine who has been working hard for the
last six months doing mostly dead work,
has struck fine pocket of$3oo ore, which
will amply repay him for his persever-
ance and dsticktonativeness.
1t is reported that Lamartine is seeing
more development work being done than
at any time in its history The Anglo
American is doing large amount of work
and the property is showingup most favor
able. The shaft is now down 400 feet
Raymond Smith, son of Frank c.
Smith, owner of the famous Humbolt
mine, will spend his summer vacation at
the Hunbolt mine. Mr. Smith is also an
expert with his kodak and will take
many fine pictures of the scenery. He is
attending the Boulder University.
The lessees in the lower Humbolt Tun-
mel are stripping their twelve inch streak
of ore for a shipment They have now
10 feet stripped and will soon shoot it
down for shipment. Every indication
is that the ore is increasing in quantity
and value. There is not mine now on
Humbolt Hill that is not getting into
better ore.
Mrs. J. A. Ferguson and her daughter,
Edith, of Denver, came up this week and
are occupying a cabin on Ute creek near
the Humbolt to enjoy summer outing
in one of the most delightful and charm
ing places around Idaho Springs, Nature
has made Ute creek with its beautiful
clear water and heavy pine forests per-
fectly gorgeous.
The appreciation of the courtesies of the
people of Lamartine have been beauti-
fully indicated by Miss Beahre, the school
teacher, who on the evening of the clos
ing of her school gave grand ball with
sumptuous feast for the people of Lamar
tine and those in her school district and
her friends. About fifty persons attended
and partook of the refreshments and en-
joyed the merry dancing-also showing
their highest appreciation of their most
competent teacher, Miss Beahre, of Idaho
Springs.
1t is reliably reported that the Russell
Gulch company has made strike on the
Fulton claim near the Old Town. There
is about eighteen inches of smelling ore
showing in the shaft at depth of about
$50 feet

"This thing of allowing stock to run
at large must positively be stopped at
once" said City Marshal O'Rouke this
week. This morning man complained
to me that half dozen cows were graz
ing above his house on the hill and
loosening rock and boulders until it
made it dangerous about his place.
Idaho Springs has outgrown the old idea
of permitting cattle to run and propose
to begin next week and impound all
stock found running at large 1 mean
