HIGH GRADE SUlPnIDtS AT

A. w. Ellis, one of the owners of

operating in the Cracker Creek dis
trict, came In from the property last
night with some more samples of the
suplhide ore mentioned In u previous
issue. The lower drift ~ now In
1870 feet, aud the pay streak shows
about four feet In width. The
vein IL some forty feet wide, but the
pay ore clinQs to the hanging wall,
where drift work IN now being
prosecuted. In the upper workings
this shoot shows values ranging
from $40 to s25. While no ASSAYS
have been made from the lower

the ore will run far better. In

pany. MIR. Wilson, the promoter of

England, where he was arrested, but
died before his trial was reached.
1t is alleged that Of the whole capi.
tslizstion Of s2O, 900, 900. not over
100000 was spent for the com
pany, and of that much went for
promotion expenses, wasteful ex-
travaRance, the purchase Of worthless
mining claims from insiders ut big
prices, until over 100 such claims
were owned by the company. and for
useless assessment holes and develop
ment Of such worthless claims.
II has been claimed and published
over the world by unfriendly skeptics
that the short run of the mill demon
strated that there is no pay tin ore
In the Black Hills. The facts are
that the mill was run by the builders
and not by the company, to see how
much tin was In the rock. The
money had bssn put TO pay for the
mill when completed and was run by
the builders only, for the purpose of
demonstrating that Il would treat
the stipulated number OF tons (26O)
per day aud save the tin, which II
did. No smelter was ever erected TO
reduce the metallic tin, the cassiter-
Ito saved by the mill, and In still

LOIS OF PROPERTIES
READY TO SHIP ORE

A group of mining men were III.
dulging In some general talk this
morning in regard to the smelter's ore
outlook and the number Vt prop.
critics now ready to ship to the plant.
After u little figuring one said:
'"rhere are Mt least twenty mines
now within striking distance Of
Sumpter, which can easily furnish
from five t. twenty-five tons a day
to the smslter, and do It ut II hig
profit. And the majority OF these
properties have not 30 far sent In a
pound of ore. ann counting the
ones mainly which are now In posi-
tion to ship, aud not those which
are furnishing ore. With the activity
of the present smelter management
there is no reason why the plat. when
It resumes. should not have an

IRRIGATION
OF THE WEST


veyors and helpers in the irrigation
reclamation service are out in the
field studying and planning for
irrigation projects in the great West.
Some few are experimenting the
actual construction of huge dams and
canals. Mr.. Newell himself, the
head of the service, has just returned
to Washington from a somewhat ex
tensive western trip. He reports
great interest throughout the West
in the big works proposed by the
government, but sounds a note of
warming against numerous schemes
and frauds which are being foisted
upon various localities "a a result of
the great interest aroused through
national irrigation activities, says a
special Washington correspondent of
the Chicago Chronicle.
''There are many instances Of
honest, effective and legitimate ir.
rigation works." he said, "where
the settlers themselves, or their
capital to some extent. have gone In
and built the works, owning or con-
trolling them along with the re-
claimed land, but do not know Of
any of the big private irrigation
schemes which are what might he
called legitimate development enter
prises. They are expolited probably
more for selling stock and bonds
than for watering land.
1T Is singular, too, how many
men Of ordinary hard business sense
will go into these wildcat things.
\ successful grocer, for instance,
who, one would naturally think,
would find out every detail Of new
business, will draw his checks for
some irrigation stocks or bonds In
the must trustful and confding
manner paying for an investment
regarding which he knows absolutely
nothing, can find out nothing aud
which Is as problematical IN its re-
turns as the veriest wildcat mine.
Other people make personal In
vestigation. They go over the land
to be reclaimed; they see the splen-
did crops growing on other lands
which have been reclaimed aud hsv'
ing investigated they confidently
invest, even though tract OF 5o,-
900 acres Is to be reclaimed with
water supply insufficient tor 5000
acres. ! am mentioning these figures
advisedly. There are instances to-
day where irrigation shares are being
sold for land containing absolutely
no water supply at all and which
can never be irrigated, but will
always remain desert.
THE meanest and most con-
temptible class of sales are where the
promoters hold out the alluring
picture to the poor man of family
that he is. by his small regular con
tributions, buying home for himself
IA little home to which he can 20

Why TIN MINING
WAS A FAILURE

Cassiterite or black tin was frs
identified In the Black Hills In 1876
as stream tin In the gold dust frou
the northern Hills. The second dis
covery was made In Elk gulch, In tn
southern Hills, In April, 1877.
In June, 1883, specimens Of
dark, heavy mineral from the Ett'
mine proved 10 be cassiterite of ex
cellent quality. At the time of th'
discovery Of the cassiterite the Eft,
was being explored for mica. Thi,
work ceased quickly aud the property
In 1884 came into the possession o
the Harney Peak Tin Mining,. Mill
ing \ Manufacturing company.
And to this same Harvey Peal
Tin company IL due the bliRhtin,
handicap that for the past ten year,
has killed tin mining In the Blacl
Hills aud the United States, for II
the Black Hills only are there pros
poets Of tin IN paying quantities.
The Hsrney Peak company evi.
deGtly started out with the purpos,
Of legitimately mining and producint
tin. They soon opened up th'
richest tin ever found In any til
mining district In the world
Several carloads of the rich tin rocI
were shipped To England for treat
ment aud exhibition. Such rich
tin ore had never been seen there an.
created II great furore among tn,
EnRlishmen and owners of the Corn
wall tin mines, which had neve
played out In their production Of I'll
since first discovered by tn,
Phoenicians, as chronicled b!
Hsordotus, 450 years before Christ
The Englishmen had plenty o
money for mining investments ant
particularly for good tin mines, n,
to the everlasting permanency O
which they knew from their own
Cornwall mines, which had produced
fortunes for many generations OF
owners. They we're clamorous fol
stock In the BLACK Hill tin mines.
This opportunity to gather In million,
of good English money by u colossal
stock selling scheme was too great u
temptation for James Wilson, who
was the promoter of the company
aud the arch cOnspiratOr of the
whole swindle.
Realizing II would take u number
of years tn develop tin prospects into
mines and bring them To their zenith
Of production, the original plan for
producing tin was abandoned for the
more rapid road to fortune. capital.
izing, printing and selling stock.
Accordingly u gigantic corporation,
capitalized at sl5, 100000 was
organized to take over the small
company aud leave millions of stock
for sale. When that WAS sold bonds
for 81, 900. 900 more were issued for
sale. Then another still larger com
pany was organized To take over the
whole property again aud furnish
still another lot OF extra stock to be
sold. By this time clamOrs by the
stock holders for tin production com
inenced and the schemers concluded
to build n big mill to help the
further sale of stock. In the mean
time loud cries of misappropriation
of funds were made, aud the end,
for some time In sight, came some
weeks after the completion of the
mill.

VIOLIN WAS STOLEN.
Hat Also Taken But Left mt "A Neigh
bOr's House.


1t was last night reported to the
police that a violin had been stolen
from the house of j. H. Helmken, at
Liberty and Whitaker streets.
The violin belonged to Mr.. Helmken's
little son, and was a valuable instru-
ment. 1t is not known when it was
taken, though it was first missed yes
terday. 1t had not been seen for sew
eral days, but it is thought it was
stolen last Tuesday night, when a hat
belonging to young lady in the house
was also taken.
The hat was recovered in a rather
peculiar manner The thief left it at
the house of a neighbor. He said it
had been sent from Foye & Eckstein's,
and left before he could be questioned.
The hat was returned to the store and
was recognized as one that had been
sold only few days before. 1t is
Thought the thief must have been
frightened by the approach of an Of
ficer and left the hat at the house to
escape detection.
Detectives are at work on the case
and hope to recover the violin.

Contract VIII BE Signed One Day
This Week, as Soon as Prepared.
An final agreement was reached yes
terday in regard to the Gwinnett street
subway.
The contract will be signed one day
this week, just as soon as it can be
drawn. There was a conference at
noon at the office of President Bald
win of the Savannah Electric Com
pany when the representatives of the
Coast Line, the street railway and the
city agreed to the plans as prepared.
Col. Garrard, the city attorney, and
Mr.. w. l.. Clay, representing the Coast
Line, will prepare the contract. All
drawings of the plans are being made
in triplicate in the office of the city
engineer, and will be attached to the
contract.
There was no change made in the
plans, as announced several weeks ago.
The only delay has been in getting the
Coast Line and the street railway TO
agree to the plans Almost every
point was agreed upon before the
plans We're drawn, but afterwards first
one company and then the other held
the plans up.

cry right thinking man makes some

you are paying the premiums you are
