ASSAY OFFICES WRECKED
Raiders Blow Up the High Grade Orr
Purchasers.

Victor. Col, Feb .25.-Crirple Greek IS
in a state Of terror, owing to a precon-
certed attack upon all the leading assay
offices doing business in the distrist. Be
ginning at 3 o'clock this morning, and
following in rapid succession, six explo-
sions wrecked as many assay offices in
the centers ranging from Victor to Grip
pie Creek, and up to Goldfield. In every
instance the object sought by the incen-
diaries was accomplished by the destruc.
ton of the offices, with their fine equip
ment OF delicate balances.
The general impression here this morn
ing is that the acts are the result of a
general movement to rid the district of
all the high grade ore purchasing insti-
tutions.
Bloodhounds from Canon City have been
called for.
For years there has been systematic
stealing of rich ores from the mines. Of
ten amounting to thousands OF dollars in
a month. It is alleged that more than
fifty assayers in the district have made a
business Of buying rich ore. Recently the
Mine Owners association discovered that
shipments of high grade ore had been
made by assayers from this district TO
the SIbley smelter at San Francisco, and

to a smelter at Salt Lake. All efforts to
stop the traffic have been unavailing.

Last spring dear girl friend fell I'll
and was taken to one of the hospitals
but weeks before entering the hospital
she had been able to take nothing but
milk to nourish her. All other foods dis

tried to live on the milk alone.
The doctor in the hospital endea-ored
to keep her alive with broth and other
food, but her stomach refused TO retain
anything but milk, and very little Of that
at time.
"I worked away at the resident physi-

All through the winter months he lay

WY0MING'S HOLE IN WALL
old Rendezvous OF Cut Threats Being
LeYeiet Out.

Casper Wyo. Feb. 25.-The notorious
Hole in the Wall" in former years a
rendezvous for cattle ''rustlers," muir
derers and train and bank robbers, is
now a thing of the past. The county
commissioners have called for bids for
blasting out a section Of the high wall
Of red sandstone, through which a small
stream flows and along which there is
narrow trail leading through the wall Of
rock to the fertile valleys within. Il is
proposed to widen this trail which was
used by the outlaws for many years,
and which. guarded by few men, made
the Hole" a veritable fortress, so that
freight teams and ordinary vehicles can
pass in and out of the Hole-in- the-Wall
country.
Several hundred pounds Of dynamite
and giant powder viii be used IN the
work In many places hundreds of tons
Of rock VII have to be blasted away
from the walls, while at other spots
only a few feet of rock viii be removed.
The Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone
company is now constructing line into
the Hole-in-the-Wall country. and soon
the several ranches there win be placed
in communication with the outside world.
This line passes through a narrow de-
file in the wall and follows the route
Of the proposed county road.
An old tumble-down log house was
for many years the headquarters Of the
outlaw band. It was only a mile from
the entrance to the Hole" and here,
with a small guard at the entrance, the
thieves lived in perfect safety. It was
here that the stolen cattle and horses
were corralIed and their brands changed.
Back Of this ranch and extending for
a distance of forty or fifty miles is a
fertile valley. broken here and there by
small. rolling hills. Springs of sparkling
water located in numerous spots in the
valley, feed a small stream in which
there are millions Of trout. Along the
valley of this stream and its tributaries
there are beautiful meadows, furnishing
an abundance of grass for thousands
Of cattle and horses, and 1t IS no wonder
that the outlaws chose this romantic
and virgin spot for their hiding place.
IN the early days the Hole-in-the-van
country was settled by ranchmen, but
the depreoations OF the outlaws soon
drove the ranchers out. With the pass
ing of the Central Wyoming outlaw,
however. the rich country is again being
settled by peaceable and law-sbiding
citizens, and evil doers viii never again
ind a safe hiding place there.

At headquarters he declared that he had
last seen his wife while he was seeing
her off at tie station at Boston. Hearing
later Of the discovery of her body he

paser on the North German Lloyd steam
er. When arrested he said he was endeav-
oring TO get the position of engineer in
hotel In which he worked.
