Charles Becker, the famous forger,

citizen, brings to mind an old story,
said a southerner who was visiting
Philadelphia the other day, which is
we'll worth repeating. A southern
Judge who had fine lot of hogs one
day met colored man notorious for
stealing, and said to him, "Uncle
Jack, I'll tell you what I'll do. You
pick out two of those hogs you like
best, and I'll give them to you, pro-
vided you won't steal any of the
others The negro pondered awhile
and finally said: 'Jedge, you've al
ways been good neighbor; an / likes
yuh, an wants to do right by yuh,
an SO / accepts the Offer yuh makes,
but ! wants yuh to know dat I'll lose
meat by it. cleveland Plaindealer.

quired for some daily papers; joshed
with Woodman; left and went inside

JUSTICE WANTS A MILL.
Fine Prospects of the TOnOpah-
Utah Company in Nevada.

Fine Prospects Of the TOnOpah-
Utah Company i'm Nevada.
Encouraging information was con-
tanned in letter received yesterday
by Vice President Robert Fowler
from Manager J. l.. Justice of the
Tonopah- Utah property, fifty miles
southwest of Tonopah and thirty-five
from the railroad at Candalaria.
Mr.. Justice says:
"There is plenty of timber on the
ground for all that is wanted for
mine and milling, and plenty of water
and good water. The altitude is
$500 feet and is all right for summer
or winter. We have some good min.
eral in sight--some better than we
sent the company, ] think. And Of
the lower grade, I think there is
plenty to justify a mill if it is good
concentrating ore"
The ore alluded to by the manager
as slow grade" contained about $25
in gold and silver values. President
W. H. Irvine Of the company said
that Mr.. Justice would certainly get
his mill il the property proved to be
as good as present appearances in
dictate.

almost entirely by ten Salt Lake min
ing men, who stand to make ten

O'Meara Talks.

M. j, O'Meara, the Tonopab mining
operator, arrived in Salt Lake from
the east Friday and within the next
few days he expects to leave for his
mines in Nevada. He confirms the
Herald's recent announcement that
the chief men 10 the Tonopah com
pany will build railroad from Soda
vile to Tonopah. He says that work
will surely begin upon the line the
moment an understanding has been
reached with the Southern Pacific
managers regarding traffic and other
arrangements. Salt Lake Herald.

Pronounce TOnopah a Camp Of
Wonderful Possibilities.

Wonderful Possibilities.
DR.. NJ. R. Ward Of Pittsburg, Pa,
who, with Walter Sinton OF Chicago
and HI. E. Miller of Idaho, was a Wis
itor 10 Tonopah last week arrived here
sceptic, but before he left he was
convinced that Tonopah would be the
greatest camp on earth. He stated
that he had heard a great deal of
Tonopah before coming here, but be-
lieved that the camp was overrated,
but his mind was changed when he
saw the immense deposits of ore in
the Mizpah, Montana, Hasbrouck,
and other properties. Dr. Ward and
his brother-in law, Chas, M. Schwab,
of the steel trust, expect to become
interested here, and visit from the
latter is promised in the next few
weeks.
Mi' MHlCt WuS dlSO vi Vic odluC
opinion as DR.. Ward when he arrived
here, but an inspection of the mines
proved his mistake. He was under
the impression that If as much ore
were here as was reported, there
was something. wrong from the fact
that reduction works had not been
erected. When the situation was ex-
planned to him, however, and it was
demonstrated that the companies
were saving money by holding their
ore instead of shipping it, he said
their policy was correct and that
millions were being saved by following
it. He realized that great future
was in store for the district, and said
it's possibilities could not be too highly
extolled.

BACK FROM TONOPAH.

Hamburger Talks Of Silver Peak
and the Bonanza Camp.
Ernest Bamberger and George e.
Gum got in Friday night from Ne
vada, where they have been spending
the last two weeks at Tonopah
and the Silver Peak district. The
latter is one of those slumbering
camps with which Nevada abounds,
where the people are always on the
verge Of waking up but never quite
succeed in doing so. Notwithstanding
its name, the Silver Peak district
contains nothing but gold. All the
silver that formerly existed there
was gouged out and shipped away a
generation ago.
Mr.. Bamberger said yesterday:
Silver Peak is located about thirty
five miles south and west of Tonopah.
We we're prospecting around there
and have located few claims, but
do not know what they will amount
to. There is but one mine in the
camp working. tits owned bya man
named Chatovitch and is called by his
name. The ore is taken out in small
quantities and treated in stamp
mill, also owned by Chatovitch. I
did not learn the depth Of the mine or
the number of stamps in the mill, but
Chatovitch is employing number of
men and making some money.
''The Blair mine, owned in New
York, is the largest proposition at
the Peak, but has been idle for many
years. Every few months the people
have talked over rumors that the
Blair was to be opened up, and have
listened anxiously for the sound Of
the whistle on the mill. A rumor to
the same effect was in circulation
when was there, and I don't know
whether it is more reliable or not"
The formation around the Peak,
Mr.. Bamberger says, is granite. AS
in all the districts anywhere around
Tonopah, great deal OF prospecting
is going on, and some one is likely to
discover a bonanza where hundreds
have come and gone without finding a
single indication
"You may say that the mines Of
Tonopah never looked BETTER" said
Mr.. Bamberger. 1.-The town itself
is subs tantial city, and everybody
is counting on the early completion
of a railroad from Soda Springs. We
only stayed in Tonopah for three days.
The average of health in that camp
seems to be about as good as in Salt
Lake. The mysterious malady that
caused such a panic a year or two
ago having vanished. Salt Lake
