The Journal Miner is informed that orders have been received to resume development work on the Lion Mining company's property on Cherry creek. Considerable activity is reported from that rich section and several other properties will begin work in the near future. What that district needs and wants badly is a railroad, and it is understood united effort is to be made by the citizens ot Cherry creek and the Verde valley to have the mat ter of building a railroad to that sec tion taken up. It seems like a branch road to that part of the county ought to pay handsomely from the time the first train is run over the line.
 Lee Pfau, of Cincinnati, Ohio, president of the Pfau Gold Mining company, operating the well known B.B. property on Cherry creek, re- turued last night from a visit of sev- eral days to the property. He was accompanied by Henry Herbert, of Louisville, Ky, who is also interest ed in the property. They are both very enthusiastic over the outlook. They left this morning for their re- spective homes. MT. Pfau will go by way of Denver and Chicago where he will place orders for abont $40, 900 worth of machinery for the mine, consisting of two 60 horse power boil CTS, % horse power friction gear hoist capable of sinking to a depth of 1000 feet, an air compressor with capacity for six machine drills, track, ore cars, black smith outfit, large pump, and in fact a splendid and complete outfit tO equip the mine for very extensive operations. The two compartment vertical working shaft is now down TYP feet and the indications are that they will strike the ledge. which is dipping toward the shaft. at a depth of about 230 feet. There seems to be very little doubt that this com pany has magnificent property, as ! there is not a place in this county where the indications are any better than they are on the B. B. property, the great ledge cropping on the sur face for the entire distance of 60O0 feet across the property MT. Pfau will return to this county in about sixty days, by which time he hopes to have the machinery which he will order on his way home, installed and in operation.

ELKs BIG BAZAAR.

The Surprises Promised by the Wa
 terbury Lodge Still Continue
 Plans that are now under way and which will be perfected within the next day or two will, when carried into execution, entirely change the in terior of City hall. A architect and contractor, Bob Mackie, has been in conference with Decorator John Char ters. and one of the prettiest and most costly interiors of any hall in this state will be the result of those conferences. It is safe to say right now that never in the history of any organization in New England will so much money be spent to make the City hall more like suite of parlors as will be expended by the local lodge of Elks. This will be a surprise that will be left for the nights of the ba zaar.

She has been called the largest "PearP' in the world and she will create much interest when she appears here At present the plans in connection with presenting her to the public are not definitely settled, but in all probability one afternoon during the week will be devoted to the school children from 4 to G. On that occasion "Pearl'' will meet each child and present each with a little souvenir. Special furniture is being built for her use during the fair week.

DEATH OF MICHAEL VANCE.
Jumped From Train at Pomperaug
 Valley and Was Killed.

Valley and Was Killed.
 Michael Vance of 10 Wall avenue was killed last evening at the Pom perang Valley station at Southford by the passenger train which arrives here at 8:07 o'clock MT Vance was em- pIoyed as a spinner at Holmes, Booth & Haydens, and was at work yester- day morning when they had 8 break down and the hands were laid oH tor the day. MT Vance went home and changed his clothing and left, stating that he was thinking of going to New Haven to see about another job. That was the last his wife saw of him un- til she looked upon his remains in Mulville's morgue to-day It seems Vance had friends in Southbury and was in the habit of making an occa- sional call there, and instead of going to; New Haven he went to Southbury and was on his way home when he met his death
 Merritt Wheeler of 162 South Elm street, who works on his farm in lSouthford and comes home every night, was sitting in the baggage car when Vance went in, just before the train started, and inquired of the bag gageman if that was the train for Wa terbury ss {.
 The fellow replied that it was not and Vance. thinking that he was on the wrong train, jumped off. At this time the train was moving and the unfortunate man was caught under the wheels and killed instantly His side and lower limbs were badly crushed and the skin was torn from a portion of his nose and forehead. The fact that he had bought ticket for Waterbury prompted the conductor. to bring the body to Waterbury. It was viewed by Acting Medical Examiner Graves The word 'fVance' was marked on his collar and about two dollars in money was found in his pockets.
 The body was not recognized until this mourning when somebody asked William N. Vance. the Brown street tailor to call at the morgue and see it. A glance at the corpse was all the father needed to satisfy him that l the dead man was his son and the ! shock unnerved him so that he almost fell to the floor Later the mans wife called and also identified the body as that Of her husband.
 Mir Vance was born in Waterbury l thirty4f1ve years ago and always resid- l ed here. He had wide circle of friends and acouaintances. all of whom speak of him as good citizer and a very agreeable fellow Resides I his widow he leaves his father and mother and brother. William Vance
