BIG LEAD FIND.

The Gutenberg Press of this week
publishes two column account, illus
trated with cuts, of the mine owned
by the Fitzpatrick Mining company
of Buena Vista. The discovery of a
lead mine about three weeks ago has
caused large number of people to
visit the mine, which is five miles
from Buena Vista, on the old Fitz-
patrick farm. The shaft is now down
to depth of about seventy feet, and
there are two very large pumps,
which have capacity of pumping
1000, 900 gallons every twenty-four
hours; but as yet it has not been
necessary to operate both, as all the
water can easily be pumped cut by
one. There is an eighty-horse power
boiler and an engine of seventy.fve
horse power.
The shaft goes through twenty feet
OF lead ore, part of which is sheet and
part float. There is also some black
jack, and the prospects are getting
better every day. 1t is considered one
of the richest lead mines ever dis
covered in Iowa. and is being operated
in a modern and systematic manner.

HOTEL SUMMIT CLOSED.

Another, and it seems the final,
chapter has been written in the Forest
City hotel fight, which has attracted
widespread attention for the past
three or four years. Some time ago
The Summit bought out The Waldorf,
which was later sold for college.
and last week The Summit was closed
because it could not be run with a
profit. 1t is said that the hotel has
been running behind at tn e rate of
500 per month for the past year.
There must be some wealthy men In
$3.50, 600 or more in spiteful quarrel.

SECURES BIG GUNS.

Congressman Haugen, after much
correspondence, has secured seven big
guns, three 32-pounder Rodmans and
four Parrott rifles, all of which did
service during the rebellion. North
wood gets two Rodmans weighing
$500 pounds each, and a PARROT,
weight 1900 pounds. Mason City
gets two guns, one OF each kind; Fay
cite and Garnavillo each get Parrott.
The combined weight of the seven
big babies is nearly % tons. The
Northwood specimens are likely to be
mounted one at the G. A. r. lot in
the cemetery, one at court square and
the third ON one of the school grounds.

that it costs mint of money" to
spend your vacation in Colorado. 1t
doesn't. In no other part of the
United States-that is, in no other
part where summer visitors go-will
your money go so far or buy so much.
For So, 50 or $40 a week you can
get good board and lodging at Colo
RADIO Springs, Manitou or Denver.
Most of the people who go to Colorado
spend not TO exceed SIP week. That
includes everything-living, amuse-
ments and side-trips. Instead of put
ting up at expensive hotels, they stay
at comfortable boarding houses, at
lodges or in camps
The cost of reaching Colorado has
been materially reduced. Round-trip
tickets are now on sale for $50 from
Chicago; $25 from st. Louis; ST. sc
from Omaha, st. Joseph and Kansas
City. Tourist sleeping cars are at.
tached to Rock Island trains fol
Colorado. The berth rate from
Chicago is only So. 90 But tickets are
good in standard sleepers on limited
trains, if you prefer to travel that
way.
Thousands of people are already In
Colorado. Hundreds are on the way.

FOUGHT WITH TRAMPS.

Sever Hankedahl, a brakeman on

from being shot to death Wednesday
night. The brakeman discovered
several tramps stealing ride just as
the train left Ventura. He ordered
them to get off aud on their refusal
attempted to use force. A general
fight ensued in which two of the
tramps were knocked off the car. The
other members of the gang began
shooting at the brakeman, five bullets
puncturing his hat and clothing, but
none of the shots had any effect.
Hankedahl was finally felled by a

UP TO DATE COLLECTION BOX

Hans Neimend, an eccentric charac-

an invention to be of national and far
reaching Importance. TIE patents
about 60 be issued TO him will protect
a device operating on we'll known
slot machine principles, with this
difference, that the new invention,
instead of catering to the gambling
instinct of the public, will serve To
take the place of the time honored
custom of passing the contribution
box in church. The apparatus con-
sists essentially of an air compressor
which is to be placed in the basement,
or otherwise convenient to the church
using the equipment. From the (air)
compressor pipes will be run to each
seat in the various pews the seats be-
ing upholstered with individual
pneumatic cushions and each one pro-
vided with slot machine device, the
insertion of coin in which will
permit air from the compressor "a
initiate the pneumatic cushion to a
limited extent. 1t is evident that the
more coins dropped in the slot of the
contribution box, the more initiation
the cushion and consequently more
comfort for the occupant.

ANOTHER RUMOR.

A rumor is current that the Rock
Island railway is weary of fixing up
washouts along Otter creek and
Turkey river and that survey of a
direct route from West Union to Post
Vile is being made which will cut
out the towns of Brainard, Elgln and
Clermont. 1t seems hardly likely that
such will be the case but it is said
the people of those towns are con-
sideriably worried over the matter.
However, it does seem that such a
wealthy and progressive road as the
Rock Island would soon tire of having
to build this piece of track over after
every hard shower and will do some
thing TO get the road bed up out OF
the wet.
