One Of Cherry Sisters Dead.

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa, Oct. s.
Word has been received here of the
death OF Miss Jessie Cherry at Hot
Springs, Ark, where she was staying
for the benefit of her health. The
death recalls the famous and far known
Cherry Sisters" who were once the
leading advertisements of Iowa, being
the main attraction in eastern vaude-
vile ceoncert halls. A dozen years ago
the Cherry Sisters" were on the
tongue of every theatre goer as one Of
the hugest hoaxes of the times. Yet
their unequalled audacity kept them
on the stage, and they drew crowds
of curious ones who were anxious to
ascertain if they were really as poor
as reported. The crowds down in this
way made their fortune, and the girls
earned enough to enable them to live
tie remainder of their lives in peace
and plenty before the public became
bored with them and refused to pay
them their sheckels.

LooPE MINING NEWS.

n. w. curtz Gives an Interesting In.
terview on that Section.
H. w. Curtz, Of Loope, was an arri-
val yesterday afternoon. He met his
father last evening, who, in company
with w. M. Turner, of Besimer, Mich,
has been in Inyo county inspecting
mining property.
Regarding operations in the Loope
country, Mr. Curtz stated that q new
cable 1000 feet in length has been
put in place and that a new cyanide
plant had been erected at the Curtz
Evans mine. The mine is looking good
and bullion is being produced. He says
that the Loope country is looking up
in a mining way and that a number Of
mines which have been idle for years
past will shortly resume operations
among which he mentioned the old
Colorado" which will have been
started up before he reaches home.
All in all, Loope is strictly on the
map and at no distant date will be one
of the best camps in this section

from day to day of Z fabuously great
mountain Of the rich ore, people be-
came anxious and were worked up to
. fever heat. At last the discoverer
made himself known to . select few
(moneyed men) and in the greatest &c.
crecy impaired to them how he made
the discovery and exhibited pieces 0f
the ore, which they had assayed. and
the more they tested, the more inter-
ested and excited they became. For rea
sons he explained he give them no
clue or idea Of the location. That re.
NAMED a mystery.
This mans name was Bailey AMI
those interested formed q company
People ran after him and forced him
to accept thousands Of dollars, one
man giving him ten thousand dollars in
coin. Many others put up large amo-
opnts, but it was all done secretly.
They all wanted an interest in good
thing and they got it. Baily informed
his partners that he had not yet Sec
ured his location aud said he would
60 alone and not let any one know
when he went. Is he would be stire
to be followed; in fact, he was under
surveillance all the time by men that
were so determined to follow him to
his discovery that he was never left
out Of sight. People were wild. Inter-
ests he hadsold to parties theysold
again at a big advance, yet no one
knew where the mine was and did not
know anything of the antecedents Of
Bailey. He was tall, finelooking man
about forty years of age, pretty well
bronzed up with the sun and dressed
like prospector.
| At last he started for his mine, as
stated by some of the knowing ones
There was already a company at Los
Angeles to intercept him on his way
out to the desert, as it was thought ii
was out there somewhere the discoy
lery was made. There was another
party in Kern county to intercept hin

pected the find was made in Mexico, a:
VERY rich antimonial ore had been dis
covered in the State of Sonora.
Time passed away, weeks drifteS
into months and the cry became gen

WANTED: BETTER LIGHT.

BE COMMERCIAL CLUB $ report
on Salt Lakes supply Of electric

Not only has the current been in
adequate but It has been so irregular
in voltage that consumers have had TO
suffer the impairment of lamps and the
other cost which always attends violent
fluctuations in current.
In nearly every business establish
ment using much light. it has been
necessary to increase the number Of
lamps used or add lamps Of larger
candle-power than would be necessary
with good service. Housebolders have

for q service it does not render. and it
would be compelled to make deductions
for inferior service or for light below
the standard. which it has agreed to
furnish.
The unpleasant ching about the sltu-
alton is that there is no means by
which the consumers can secure the
service they have a right to demand.
IT avails them little that promises are
forthcoming for every complaint; that
the company is spending money or
planning TO spend money; that a hum

pleasant fact remqins that they must
wait on the pleasure Of the company.
Meanwhile a complaisant council has
granted an extension Of franchise for
the company in order that it may float

SENATOR pEWRose's BILL.

- ENATOR PENROSES bill to
amend the law relating to the use
Of mails for the purpose of transmit
ting lottery tickets so as to include turf
investment swindles and the get-rich-
quick guessing contest should not meet
with serious opposition in congress.
Both plans are gambling propositions,
pure and simple no matter what those
engaged In them may say. The turf
investment is simply betting on horse
races by mail and depending on the
judgment OF another m,,u as to odds
and conditions. In the guessing, or es-
innate contests, the only variation
from the lottery lies i'm the fact that
YOU are kindly permitted to select your
own number.
The possibilities of fraud are endless.
The individual who sends money to be
waged on horse race never knows
whether or not his money was placed
at the best odds; indeed. in some cases
he doesn't know whether or not his
money was placed at all. The man at
the other end may pocket the money
and the sender be none the wiser, And
NE
great many men with a shade of hon.
esty in their purposes while remaining
wide open to schemers VIM traffic in
the credulity of the public.
In guessing on the number of votes
to be cast in an election, the number of
beans in a jar the number of shot in
a bottle and similar catchpenny de-
vices you write out your number in
stead Of buying a lottery ticket con-
tanning it, As has been said, this is the
only difference between the guessing,
OF estimating contest and the lottery
pure and simple There is nothing
honest i'm a plan which proposes 80 Iet
q man win $4,000 on a fifty-cent il-
vesment. The return is altogether out
of proportion to the outlay. Ii e ap-
parent that at least 10, 999 people mus,
lose in order that one may win.
When a man has only one chance in
5000 to win some people win say be
is not gambling; he Is giving away his
money. This may be the right view 10
take of It, and it is to prevent such
thoughtless ones from giving away
their money that Senator Penrose has
introduced his bill. It is hardly fair to
abolish one form OF lottery and allow
another to run unrestrictedly. Either
all should be permitted to operate or
none.
