LOCAL POWER OF
ATTORNEY MADE OVER

l-Some months ago w L. Howard sent
a power of attorney to Prof. sedgewick
at Trujillo, Peru, who was asked to
sign it and send it back. The form
mailed was the usual one. such as the
bookstores sell for five cents and was
filed out with ar authorization for Mrl
Howard to manage Prof Sedgewicksi
local property.
Prof. Sedgewick took the power Of
attorney to Peruvian notary for the
usual acknowledgment. but there and
then he struck a snag. The document.
before it could go out with the notary's
signature, must be rendered In Spanish.
This needed time and it was several
months before sedgewick got the power
of attorney back. Yesterday it reached
Mr.. Howard in a formidable envelope
with twenty-one stamps on the back.
There had been some on the fact but
people on the postal route had torn
them off.
Inside were eight pages bound in
Venetian red paper. ornamentsd With
sroll-work and five seals, that of the
notary, the Minister of instruction, the
Mayor of Trujillo, the Chief Clerk of
the Peruvian Foreign once and of
Richard Neil, secretary of the u. $.
Legation.
Heaven knows what the fees were;
Howard doesn't.

range until he had sunk his enemy. No
difficult task that last-she was half
sinking now! But what the Richard
lacked in mobility and direction, she
made up in her captain. Jones did
things instinctively. Pearson had to
think about them. Jones only hope
was in getting to close quarters and
making use Of the disciplined French
soldiery upon his decks.
They had done good service already
in clearing the spar deck Of the Eng

1t has been claimed that
n'nety-tive per cent of the
country press are the friends of
Dunn, and this is true-probab-
ly one hundred per cent-but
they are not going to support
him for governor. Until the
Collins announcement, about
three-fourths of the country
press have been non-committal
but have since then been COM
ing out for Collins in all quart
rers. Heretofore, however, the
Dunn papers have been the
noisy ones, and many Demo-
cratic papers have been especi-
ally vociferous for him.
Here are a couple of sam pies
of what the press is saying:
Judge Collins is a clean man
and an able one. He has the
confidence of the people of the
state in a large degree. If
nominated and elected he will
make good governor-one of
which the great state of Mime
sofa needs not to be ashamed.

George w. Nottage of Kas-

governor. The county has a

usually popular appointment
in naming E. w. Randall mem
Der of the University regents,
says the St. Cloud Journal
Press. Mr.. Rand all, thru
his connection with the state
fair association, is particularly
strong with the farmers, and
his selection is notice that the
agricultural school will have
another good friend on the
board, while he is big enough
man to recognize the greatness
of the university and will work
for it's continued success. The
re-appointment of DIR. Bracken
on the state board of health is
also to the governors credit.

Hon. r. G.. Dunn, at a meet
ing of his supporters in Prince
ton, announced his candidacy
for governor, Tuesday night.
His platform will appear in
this weeks Princeton Union.
No doubt it will be a good one,
but what a candidate says at
this time will not count half as
much with the people as what
he said and did when he was
not a candidate. Mr.. Dun II
has been one of the strong vote
ge tiers, has numerous friends
tn rOughout the state, is a
shrewd politician, and will
make a hard fight. While he
has just made his announce
ment he has in fact been an
active candidate for several
months past, and has made as
complete an organization AS it
was possible for him to do.
The fact that he had the field
practically all to himself, and
was unable to unite the Re
e." .''F' an party '.1lder his ban
ner, n.okes it improbable that
he c>.p suvCuod IN tie face of
the aggressive opposition of two
other candidates. One of the

boomers are Democr tic

ed Win the utmost Jury ZOE
s=z@s nearly three-qua rters of an
tSz&gy hour, and both ships had sus-
| tanned severe injuries, the Richard being
in much the worse condition. The heavy
shot from the long Is FOUNDERS OF
the Scraps had played havoc with her.
Pearson naturally thought that it was
| about time for Jones to surrender,
though the hour when Jones thought
| it time to surrender would never strike.
The sudden silence which had fallen
upon the conflict was broken by voice
from the British ship. In high inter-
rogation it rang over the waters in the
moonlight.
"Have you struck?" was the Ques-
ton of the Scraps. From the shatter-
ed Richard came Jones' immortal an
sWer:
II have not yet begun to fightp'
A roar of wild eXultation, a gigantic
Homeric laugh, broke from the threats
of the crew of the Richard as the reply
Of the captain was passed from deck
| to deck until the whole ship from
truck to keelson quivered with re-
| sponsive joy. 1t was a joke the char
| acter of which those blood stained ruff
fans could we'll appreciate, but the
captain was in no mood for joking.
He was serious, and in the simplicity
of the answer lay it's greatness. Strike!
Not now nor ever! Beaten! The fight
ing is but just begun! The preposter-
GUS possibility Of surrender cannot
even be considered. What manner of
man this with whom you battle in the
moonlight, brave Pearson? An unfa-
miliar kind to you and to most, such
as has not been before nor shall be
again. Yet all the world shall see and
understand at this time.
81 have not yet begun to fight!'
Surprising answer! On ship shat
tered beyond repair, her best guns ex-
ploded and useless, her crew decimat-
ed, ringed about with dead and dying,
the captain has not yet begun to fight!
But there was no delay after the an
swer, no philosophizing, no heroics.
The man of action was there. He
meant business! Every moment when
the guns were silent was a wasted
one
The helm was shifted to starboard
and the headsails shivered. The Rich
ard slowly swung off to port and gath
cred Roadway again. The Scraps had
lost an opportunity of lacking and
raking. In order more quickly to
bring his guns to bear and perhaps
to prevent a raking by the enemy, Cap
tain Pearson threw all aback. And
the two ships. one backing and the
other reaching ahead, slowly drew
abreast each other, the batteries speak
ing again as soon as the guns bore.
The wind was very light, and the mo-
ton Of both ships was sluggish in the
extreme, so thai they practically lay
side by side, steerage way almost gone,
slowly drifting in for long minutes. I'm.
til there came a sudden, temporary
breath Of wind.
The position was most advantageous
for the Scraps. as with her heavier
and more numerous guns she could de.
iberately knock the Richard into a
''cccked hat" She was much the
speedier and handler ship, and might |
reasonably hope to choose her own |
distance, and, having selected a point |
of vantage, maintain it to the end. |

TRACES OF CINNABAR
Amalga m ted Gold Found 40
Feet Below the Surface.

W. C. Slade, who has a placer mine
OH Johnson Gulch, tributary Of
Sucker creek, near California Bar,
has also located four foot ledge OF
gold bearing quartz, particularly on
his placer claims Mr.. Slade is q
firm believer IN the excellence Of bis
section as n mineral district and be-
lieves that in addition to gold dis
coveries that valuable deposits Of Gin
nabar will in time be uncovered.
Mr.. Slade says he has found amnlga-
mated gold In running drifts, 40 feet
below the surface, the age Of the
gravel deposits being such as to pre-
clude all possibility Of having been
placed there Ly human agency Then,
also, he has secured PARTICLES Of
native quicksilver, while panning
traces on the mountain side.
A good find was recently made on
Sucker creek near California Bar, by
Jess Bornett, who noticed pieces
of quartz gold in placer on the gold
In a placer on the creek and set out
to discover the source. After some
search he struck the trace on the hill
side and followed it up. He has two
lodges running plrallel with each
other and number Of small veins or
stringers. These "dip" together and
tho indications are that they will
unite lower down in strong ledge.
The surface quartz carries values at
the rate Of sl25 per ton, while he has
ore producers that GOLD

to carry ii from the mountains aud

certain that he has valuable prop.
erty and is doing effective work to
prove the worth of the find.
