NINE WERE KILLED
In Hoad On Collision on U. p.
Near Granger Blame
Not Fixed.

Nine persons perished in the wreck on
the Union Pacific near Granger on Fri
day night. Both trains we're running at
high speed and SO terrific was The impact
that the tender Of the passenger engine
wac driven entirely through two baggage
cara and mail car and crashed into the
coach. Here is where the passengers
were killed. None OF those in the Pull
mans we're injured 20 any serious extent.
The two engines were Literally torn TO
pieces. one Of the passengers reniarking
that about the biggest piece he saw OF
either one Of them was = rylinder
The wreckage was piled ny on both
sides OF the track in an indcscribable
heap. the baggage and mail ears and
several ii the box cars being torn to
kindling wood
A number OF passengers in the chair
car were badly shaken up and bruised,
but the Pullman's on the rear oi the
train we're not derailcd and the shock to
them was comparatively light.
The wreck was caused by the negli-
gence Of the operator at Granger, who
gave the freight crew the wrong orders.
The operator has skipped out and can
not be found.
The freight train was given thirty
minutes to make Azusa and meet the
westbound passenger. The order de-
livered the freight crew read fifty
minutes and a mile and hall out oil
Azusa the trains came together at a
great speed.
Another story endeavoring to fix the
blame for the wreck, says that the re.
report that an operator or dispatcher
had caused the wreck appears to be in
correct No employe has committed
suicide either. 1t is stated semi-offic
tally that the crew Of the freight trsir
was at fault. The freight crew had re
ceived an order that No 3, the fast mail
would run 100 late at Azusa. The crev
mistook the "three" for ''five" think
ing that the order read l.5O, instead o
80. and believed they had twenty min
utes more on the time of the fast mai
than they were really entitled to. The.
were running at high rate OF speed t
reach Marston for the fast mail, and me
the passenger on a sharp curve. Th
loss OF property is enormous, and it
believed the wreck is the worst lhat ey
er occurred in the state.

TO BUILD RAILROAD
To Thunder Mountain a COM
pany Has Beer Organized
and Articles Filed.

An Idaho railway project which has
been in process Of organization Tor some
months has reached stage whore those
interested feel the facts may be made
public without ie"pardizing the success
oi the yrolect. This il the Big Greek &
Thunder Mountain road. which itis pro-
posed shall be constructed by company
called the Big Creek q Thunder Noun
tain Railroad company, the articles oi
incorporation oi which viii soon be filed
with the secretary OF state.
This company is being organized by
some 81 lhose having very heavy inter
csts in the Big creek section They find
it n, cessary to have a road over which
theii in-ircight and the output Of their
mines may be- hanled. many Of the
properties there tcing OF s,eh char
acter that large portion Of the values
must be SAVED in the form Of concen-
trates
The proposed road is TO start from
I.ardo on the Big Payette lake. From
there it will 20 to the north end OF the
lake and follow the Payette river to
Secesh summit. thence its route will
be down Secesh creek to the south fork
of the Salmon; thence up the south
fork and east fork to the mouth OF Pro-
file creek; thence up the latter stream
and through Profile gap to the head Of
Big creek; thence down big creek to the
mouth of Monumental and up Monu-
mental to Roosevelt, distance in all OF
13O miles.
The project involves the extension OF
the P. K l. N. from Council to Meadows,
30 miles, and thence TO Lardo. 8 miles.
1t is the understanding that those in
terested are cooperating with the P. &
L. N. people with this end in view and
that the latter road will be extended
next summer if this project is carried
through.
1t is possible that the road from Lar
do into the Thunder Mountain will be
made narrow gauge. but that is a poini
that has not yet been settled
This railroad project has been pending
for monlhs. 1t is the understanding

The Wefser Bridge.

The big steel bridge across Snake river
at this place is rapidly nearing compile
tion, says the Neiser Signal, and it is
expected that within three weeks the
extire work will have been finished.
The steel work Is about all completed
and work has been confined to building
the approach on the Oregon side, the
contract for which was let by the NAL
heur county commissioners to George
Bacon, superintendent in charge for the
American Bridge company, for 81 900.
The bridge proper is 700 feet in length
and consists OF five mammoth steel
spans, each 40 feet in length. When
the approaches are completed, 200 feet
more will be added to it making a total
OF 900 feet. The roadway is is feet wide
and is 20 feet or over above the water.
This bridge will be one of the finest OF
its kind in the west, and connects the
states of Idaho and Oregon. 1t was
built by the American Bridge Co., OF

ore gets richer as the work progresses
 and it is impossible to tell what the size of the body is. There is in sight at this writing 3O0x3o6x200 feet of ore, which amounts to over 2,000, ,008 tons. The management of the mine cay that this ore averages per cent copper. but that is a very conservative figure. as there is no doubt that the smelter returns will show an average of 2 per cent Besides the copper, the ore carries 8 in gold and two ounces in silver, which will give a total valua- ,ion of s35, 5,oO0, 900 to the ore in sight.
 The ore is a chalcopyrit and is easily mined and reduced. being an ex- ceptionally fine ore for concentration. The whole district taken in by the Cobre Rico is capped with an iron formation called "gossan," and the ore itself carries silica and iron enough to make it self-fiuxing, which adds to its value.
 The Transvaal mine, from which the company takes its name. lies to the northeast of the Cobre Rico. and has. if anything, a larger ore body. Near ly 2.0O0 feet of work has been done on this property in tunnels, win1es, np- raises and shafts. The ore body so far exposed will yield at the lowest calculation 900 900 tons of per cent copper ore, carrying gold and silver enough to pay all expenses in mining and reduction. There is an abund- ance of water through the mine, but ,he quantity is not so great but that it can be easily handled The first work ever done in the Verde canyon was done on this property; a tunnel was run in about fifty feet. and good ore was cut for that distance.
 Directly across the canyon another tunnel was run, which is called tunnel No. 2. and is in ore. A winze was sunk and a big body of high grade ore has been struck. which connects with the ore body in tunnel No. l. Al the shaft, where the main work has been done a crosscut was run at depth of 300 feet. and is in 320 feet, the last 300 feet being in ore. The crosscut strikes the same body of ore that the two tunnels encountered. and show be- yond a doubt that the Transvaal mine is something wonderful. Another crosscut has been run to the west sev- eral hundred feet to cut into an ore body that crops out 500 feet from the mouth of the shaft.
 At present work has been suspend ed in this mine because of water in the shaft A big pump is now in place and is beginning to take hold of the water, which it is lowering several feet a day. The Transvaal is equipped with a thirty horse power hoist, an ail compressor and a battery of three boilers. which develop ITO horse power without forcing.

Saloon or Blind Tiger Which?

The saloon is made legal by the
wish of those who think more of
strong drink and revenue than they
do of the character and welfare of
their boys and girls. Girls? Yes.
They may marry some promising
young man but through the tempta-
ton of the legalized saloon he is lost
to virtue and right and drags his wife
down to ruin. Men say: "They
WILL sell it and you might as well
get the revenue" Just as well say
men WILL steal and You had lust as
well make it legal so you can get a
revenue -part of the proceeds. This
would make you party to the crime.
Legalize the saloon by your vote, for
the revenue-part of the proceeds
aud you are party to the crime and
responsible to God for whatever may
be committed. Men say they sell
more by "blind tiger" than when they
have open saloons. Don't be deceived
with such false argument. If that
were true whiskey men would work
and vote against license. "Men will
have their drinks so you had Just as
well get the revenue," says the whis-
key man. But thousands of boys and
young men will never begin the
downward road if the legalized temp
tation is not placed before them.
When father says, by his vote, that
thing is right, his boy says cts no
harm to take the social dram," and
down he goes to ruin. Who did it?
Father. o man, for the sake of your
wife, your boys, your daughters, or
YOUR sisters, or your mother; vote
against the awful influence that
d;lmus one hundred thousand young
men every year. The Older ones drop
into drunkards grave drunkard's

men step in and take their place at

The two days of Harrison's STREE
FAIR which have gone by up to thu
time of our going to press have beer
enjoyable to the large crowds at
lending, and already it may be sait
that the Fair is a success on all lines
Messrs Brundage & Fisher, who
have charge of the amusement feat
ures are proving themselves first
class in catering to the pleasure o.
the people, as well as gentlemen who
insist on treating all with whom
they come in contact with courtesy
and consideration. The Balloon As
tensions each afternoon have been
magnificent, and the high dive, the
slide for life and the live wire walk
ing have added novelty and interest
60 each days performance.
The fruit, agricultural and stock
exhibits are a surprise even to
those who are acquainted with the
capabilities of the country, and the
stranger goes away assured that
the country really possesses all we
boast of in these various lines.
= The booth for vegetables etc., in
charge of E, c. Ross & Co.. is a
handsomely arranged affair, and
profnsely decorated, view from all
sides being permitted by a wire
screen. In this booth are garden
products that would do honor to
the banquet table of Lneullus. Ev-
erything is arranged neatly and
tastefully, and in such manner as
gives the best effects to each exhibl-
ton on the shelves.
A. J. Walters & Co., the managers
OF the booth for grains, cereals and
agricultural products have done
themselves credit by the arrange
ment of the interior of this booth,
and everything goes to prove to the
stranger the fertility of our soil.
Corn, wheat, oats, and in fact all
the grains, grasses and forage crops
are shown there. This exhibit is
one of the finest displays of the kind
ever had in North Arkansas, and the
interest displayed by our farmers in
the movement ito show outsiders
what we can do is most commenda-
BILE.
The booth for the exhibit of fruits
in front of ]. Sam Tyson's store is
one of the prettiest arranged exhib-
its we have seen anywhere. The
display is such as would tempt the
palate or tickle the fancy of the gods
of Mount Athos, and the fruits
shown resemble those in the Garden
of Eden long before Satan discov-
cred us. Such apples, peaches,
pears, grapes and in fact the entire
display is such as may be regarded
with pride by all.
In the stock exhibits before the
Boone County Hardware Co, s store
some of the county's finest stock is
being shown. In competition with
other sections all would have been
prize winners. There were some of
the finest horse and mule colts
ever seen in the town and the Judges
have been put to their wits to really
decide which was best.
All the premiums are being award
ed by fair and impartial judges, and
everybody seems satisfied. A COM
plete list OF awards will be given
nex. week.
