REPORTS FROM QUAIL
 UNSATISFACTORY
Much Work Done in Trouble some Country Reveals
 No Pay.

Max Neville and Rudolph Kart luke came in from Huron creek for the holidays.
 Huron is a tributary of the Trou blesome, and comes into that stream fifteen miles below Gunnison. It is new creek and inspires great hopes ir all who have inspected it. The formation is different to what 1t is at Quail, being mica schist. Very little work has been done on the creek. but the best prospects so far found in the Troublesome country were got there. A good many prospectors from Quail creek and other parts of the Troublesome country will go to Huron. and the creek will get pretty thorough prospecting before spring
 Messrs. Neville and Kartluke do not bring very encouraging reports from Quail creek and vicinity. A lot of prospect work has been done, but ne pay has been found. Chap mar and Olson have not lost Conh- dence in Quail. They are prospect ing their Eagle Bench claim OH that creek ard claim 10 get good prospects.
 Shirley, Frazer and Mcleod thoroughly crosscut Quail creek at No. II and found no pay. No. II adjoins Chapman and Olson s clrlm. The Shirley party abandoned Quail and are now prospecting on Huron.
 Cap Williams and Dave Fancher crosscut Blizzard creek, tributary of the Troublesome. and Canyon creek, coming in about a mile be- low Quail. They found no pay and moved up toward the head of Quail, where they will prospect the benches.
 Mike Dunworth prospeCted a bench just below the mouth of Quail. but gave il up and moved to Gunnison.
 Jim I.augiord aud Jack Ostrom are working on Quail and the South Fork benches. They contemplate moving to Huron creek, where they have staked claims

A. B. ENTERTAINMENT
 WELL RECEIVED
Large Crowd Pleased By the Performance Monday
 Night.

The A. B. Lodge is undoubtedly doing a great deal for the entertain ment of the people of Rampant.
 Monday nights effort showed considerable work in preparing for the holiday happiness so universal al Christmas.
 The audience was app,eciative and every number received its share of applause, from the overture to Mir. Fleischman artistic work with his violin, which ended the first part of the program. One of the best features was the dash with which the program was carried out. Every performer was in his CT her place ard there were no waits be- tween numbers, so usual in anna teur performances.
 "A Quiet Family judging flom the outbursts of laughter, was em- ineutly successful. From the time Peter climbed in at the window to the kiss of reconciliation between Mir. and Mrs Barnaby Bibbs laugh ter and applause were frequent. Particularly was this noticeable when Mrs. Benjamin demonstrated her ability to take care of one side of the house by punching her worse half into submission, showing the chivalry of the n-folk of a min ing emp. But specializing the bright spots would be useless: the company was remarkably well bal anCed, and each deserved an equal share in the curtain call received at the close of the performance.
 Supper was served and dancing indulged in until late hour. The music, furnished by Mir Fleischman and Mrs. Smith, was up to the usual high standard.
 The A. E. Lodge wishes to thank the ones who helped either by their presence or as active participants. Financially the receipts were about sI7S.
