about one and one-half miles distant last
Monday. Returning home, she conclud-

being nearer, and some how lost her way
and was out all night in the cold. She
found her way to Horace Woods about
day light in the morning, where her son,
Philip, went for her with a buggy, and,
strange to say, she seems none the worse

Two Off Marienyille.

We're taking 'em in lunches now,
and that, too, off the champions" Yes
terday our friends from the summit came
down with blood in their eyes, and the
home team didn't do a thing TO ZEN on
the ball field. The first game was called
at 1890, and after the first shiver was
over our boys settled down TO playing
the game which was full of snap and
ginger from start to finish. Bankhead
and Lawrence formed the battery for the
locals, and Reyner and Graybil for the
visitors. Both batteries did fine work,
and the game closed with a score of 1913
in favor of Tionesta. The score;

The afternoon game was the crackajack
of the pair, and every inch of ground was
fought to a finish. Clayson, one Of Kane's
crack pitchers, was in the box for Mar
~ienville, with Graybill behind the bat,
but the latter was obliged to change
places with Heating on cooun of the Of
fects of a hard fall received in the fore
moor game. McMillen and Lawrence
did the battery work for Tionesta, which
was gilt edged. 1t lohked a little like
victory for the visitors when they piled
up three runs in the first half of the first
inning, while the locals were retired in
their first two innings with goose eggs,
but in the third they made a great
squirt, piling up six runs. At no time
after that were the visitors in any danger
of winning the game, although thew put
up a stiff fight for it to the end, with tie
result that the game closed 81 for our
side. The score

1t was a field day for Tionesta, sure
and both games were won on their mer-
its. Harry Garfield umpired both, and
not a kick was registered during either,
which might perhaps be called the iea-
ture of the day.

The following is said to be a good
way TO preserve eggs. Have a kettle of
boiling water on the stove, and into this
dip the EGGS. Let them remain as long
as it takes you to count ten fast. This
receipt has been in use in one family for
40 or so years. The eggs cannot be told
from perfectly fresh eggs, as the hot wa
ter cooks that fine inner skin, and there
can be no evaporation. There is no taste
of lime about them put up in this way.
1t is a fine thing for country women who
want to hold for better prices, aud also
for the city wOmen who want to purchase
for future use while eggs are cheap.
The ball game between the st. Louis
Stars, the ''bIoomer girls and the Tio-
nesta team last Friday, was one of the
best attended games of the season, but
that didn't make it the most interesting
by any means. Six girls and three men
pitcher aud catcher and short-stop-
compose the nine, the latter being good
players. and one or two of the girls play
ing quite well for their sex. The game
started all light, and looked like it might
be a good one, but quickly developed into
a rather ~listless affair, with the girls at
the entire mercy of the home team. The
score at the end of the game stood 1874 in
favor of the home boys.
The M~accabees at Erie are starting a
movement for the erection of a Maccabee
Home, similar to those maintained by the
Odd Fellows. The officers of the Stale
hive are interested in the proposed insti-
tuition aud it is the intention of the State
hive to enlist the cooperation of the A.
600 or more active members in Pennsyl-
vania in contributing voluntarily TO the
project. One dollar will be asked from
each member to form the fund upon
which building operations can start. A
site of 300 acres will be purchased and a
structure with 40 large rooms, erected at
the beginning. Additions will be erected
annually, as required. The home will be
sustained by contributions.

Railroad men falling to observe the forego-
ing should he promptly reported. Block
ing crossings is also a violation of the
company rules. and,should be dealt with
accordingly. The company expects their
orders to be observed, and the inconyen-
fence to the public in most part has been
caused by their employees. Anroyances
ofthis kind are quite frequent at the sta
ton here, and they are often of the kind
that could as well be avoided if the en-
ployes were disposed to be courteous to
public. There should be no more of it,
and a train crew which is guilty of such
conduct should be promptly reported to
headquarters.

The Columbus Consolidated Mines,

Some of the notable achievements of
the year are credited to the manage
ment of the Columbus Consolidated of
Alta. The developments ut this
property have been most important; a
year ago II was a mere prospect, while
today it is a mine Of great proportions
and has a right to be classed among
the big bonanzas OF the state. The
result has been triumph OF energy
and pluck displayed by men who are
master miners; men who have received
their training in practical way and
who are thoroughly competent and eS-
perienced, as their work already shows
To Manager Tony jacobson belongs
much of the glory for the foregoing
accomplishments. 1t was he who
planned the organization Of the Co.
lumbus and the rejuvenation of an old
camp which, years ago, received al
most international fame; but In later
years had become about as dead as any
camp could be.
KNEW SOMETHING ABOUT CAMP.
But Alta was not entirely stranger
to Mr.. Jacobson. lie had been there
before--in the days of the Flagstaff
and the Emma-when he calloused his
hands behind the hammer and drill,
Naturally, he obtained some knowledge
of the character, location and trend of
the veins in the camp and kno wiug
that the early work done on them,
lacked system he went back there for
the purpose Of getting a foothold. He
secured bond and lease on the Column
bus ground. But then he was confront
ed with another problem, the most
serious Of ALL that Of raising money
for the payments that were to be met
according to the conditions of the bond,
and for the development Of the ground,
Mr.. Jacobson's own bank account did
not permit of him carrying the burden
on his shoulders for any great length
Of time, but. undaunted, he set out to
enlist the assistance of others. He APP
preached Clarence X. Mccormick, and
that gentleman decided to take a
chance. The treasury of the company
soon contained a balance sufficient to
start work in a small way so opera
tions at the Columbus began. Sub
sequently, the stock of the company
was placed upon the market with good
success. and II was not long after the
Inauguration of work that ore Of sufll-
clent grade to ship to a profit was taken
out and sent down to the valley smelt-
ers. This was continued and the COM
pany realized enough to more than pay
operation expenses, Other properties
We're added to the group and these have
been paid for. so now the Columbus
Consolidated company has clear title
to Its ground, embracing 2I5 acres,
with II patented claims.
CREATED A SURPLUS.
1t is a remarkable fact that no ore
has been taken out at any time, except
In the course of development; II has
been the policy Of the management to
market only such ores as were In the
way and interfered with the progress
Of development; yet In spite of this the
company has been laying up surplus
and could pay nice dividend TO the
stockholders were II not for the the
fact that the company has in con-

SIMILAR TO PARK CITY
"a scording 10 the observation OF the
writer, Alta and Park city might well
be treated under one description, for
what applies to one camp can usually
be said OF the other Although Alta is
somewhat higher than the Park, am
nearer the divide that separates them,
and for this reason has been probably
somewhat more disturbed by the gra-
nitic core that forms the backbone, yet
In general the formations are similar,
though erosion has had greatef effect
on them at Alta, where they were more
broken off.
"In earlier geologic times, after the
great Wasatch fault was made, Alta
and Park city, or the locality wheru
they now stand, probably constituted,
disregarding minor Irregularities, a
great inclined plane, sloplng eastward.
Subsequent erosion, together with the
other dsintegrating forces of nature,
have materially altered the aspect and
today water shea separates the dis
trlcts, and Little Cottonwood canyon

AZ the beginning of the present

mine had been developed 10 the ex-

tunnels, drifts, upraises cross-cuts and

ITAH'S mineral production COM
menced about 1864, and up to
1871 the output consisted largely
of placer gold; coming mainly from the
gravels of Bingham canyon, While
considerable attention was paid to lode
mines In the latter part of the COS,
the actual production from this source
was OF little consequence.
Prior TO 1871 there are no statistics
TO indicate what the production really
was, but various estimates place II at
less than 81 0O00 900.
