Contract has bssR Id for 800 FWt d
TunnsiRg On ths Eureka Timing
(snpaRy's Property.

After an idleness for most of the
summer months, development has been
resumed on the Eureka copper prop
critics in the Imnaha district, says
the Baker City Herald. A contract
has been let for 500 feet of tunnel,
and crew of eight men has been put
to work. A compressor plant has been
installed at the mine during the sum-
mer and henceforth development work
will be by means of power drills, and
on larger scale than ever before.
The Mountain Gem has not com
menced its run on the Snake between
Lewiston and Imnaha and as a result
mining companies are very short of
supplies. They are looking forward
to the time when the boat is put In
commission. Some heavy hauling is
also being done from the Wallowa
valley by the 60-mile wagon road now
but the operators will depend ON the
steam boat for most of their supplies,
doing their shipping after the water
raises a little more, and navigation is
freed from its most imminent dan
gers.
After the Mountain Gem was com
pleted trouble arose over the owner
ship. A Lewiston capitalist has taker
lease on the boat, and thinks h'
,vill oat her ON the river by Octobe

death vas dreadful shock to Mr..
Fraser, who is completely prostrated
by the blow. He is suffering from
hemorrhages himself, superinduced
by the shock, and his brother Elks
are tenderly caring for him.
Mrs. Frazer was in splendid health
and spirits when she arose Sunday
morning. While chatting with her
husband after breakfast she was seized
with an acute pain. A physician was
hastily summoned and a diagnosis
showed that blood vessel had been
ruptured. Mrs. Frazer was at once
taken to st. Alphonsus' hospital
where an operation was performed by
which the hemorrhage was stopped.
She had lost too much blood, how
ever, to Withstand the shock and death
ended her sufferings in two hours
time. The nature of the hemorrhage
was such that medical skill was pow
erless.
Mrs. Frazer was born In Philadel-
phia "a years ago and was brought to
Idaho City when five years old. She
moved to Boise in 1890 and had since
that time been prominent in club and
social life She was former presi-
dent of the Woman g Democratic club
and was chairman of the club at the
time of her death. She was also a
member Of the Columbian club.
Mrs. Frazer was an only child. HeI
mother, who has beensent for, is-ma-
tron of the Albion normal school.
Mrs. Henry Schmelzel of Horseshoe
Bend and Mrs. M. G. Luney of Idaho
City are her aunts. A sweet little
daughter, eight years of age, mourni
the loss of devoted mother.
Until the arrival of Mrs. Frazer
mother no arrangements for the fune
raj were made.
The Woman g Democratic club helt
a special meeting Monday evening a
$3.50 at headquarters in the Boecl
building to draft resolutions of sym
pathy with the bereaved family.

Harrow fs(dps from Death.

A man named Gumm had narrow
escape from death Monday evening
out near the Institute. He had been
in town and was on his way home
horseback. Being considerably un-
der the influence of "booze," he be-
gan to abuse the horse, causing him
to jump over barbed wire fence.
Gumm fell off and the horse landed
on top of him, nearly crushing the
life out of him. He Was taken to the
Institute where restoratives we're ap
piled and he soon recovered. Hi
nose was broken and he was otherwise
bruised up. The horse only received
few scratches.

ANOTHER 5TR|kf RfpORTtD
fROt THUhD[Q DISTRICT
Runo,d That Dan (ottu H6 fsua
Rib ORE il q Shaft Near
II, 5ulnyid,.

A1-interesting report has reached
Boise from Thunder Mountain to the
effect that Dan Cotter has struck very
rich ore in his property about mile
north of the Sunnyside, says the yoiss
Statesman. He resumed sinking dur
ing the summer and went down about
10 feet. When he was SO feet In
dcpth he was In formation exactly
like that which overlies the Sunny
side ore. The shaft was continued
to depth of 75 feet. The story goea
that it there came into ore much Of
which showed wire gold. A letter re-
ceived from the camp yesterday says
it wss the richest ore ever found In
the district. One man told recent
arrival that he picked up piece ON
tho dump that showed wire gold. he
exhibited the piece, explaining that
1t was secured In that manner.
But work was suddenly stoRped A.
tor the ore was struck, and It l. ~
ported from Roosevelt that Cotter de-
nies making any such discovery. On
the other hand man who worked in
the shaft is quoted as saying that the
strike was made and it was the first
showing of rich gold rock he ever saw.
The theory of the correspondent ID
that people interested in securing
property induced Cotter to Gloss
down work and permit water to sccu-
mulate in the shaft until the desired
deal could be made.
If the story is true its importancs
lies in the fact that 1t proves up the
rich blanket so far northward from
the Sunnyside. Other discoveries
have been made that show the forma-
tion extends far northward, but nc
other rich ore body has been found &C
far to the north, though large quanti-
ties of ore of fair grade have been
opened

A Few Things TO Know

When yonr hens get lazy and fat it
will be an excellent plan to make them
scratch for living. If they have to
scratch for what they get to eat they
will do it to their good. When it is OBJ
served that the poultry-housc needs
cleaning it will be an excellent plan to
work and clean it and not wait for va.
cation. When the grass is wet keep the
little chicks shut up untilitis dry. When
the comb and wattes are bright red
color it indicates good health. When
YOU enter the poultrvhousc in the night
and hear no Snoring" you may rest as
sured there is no roup. Chickens always
sleep aloud when they are afflicted with
roup. When you feed hens do not feed
them like YOU would steer, tor hen
cannot eat as much as a steer. There is
danger Of ovcrfeediug. When YOU crowd
hens IN two by four hen coop and ex'
pect them all to lay well it is time for
YOU 10 broaden your views or get out OF
of the business. When youg get to think
ing that every other breed is better than
the one you are now breeding it is sign
YOU are likely never to be contented
with any bree1. When man comes to
YOU with sure cure for any or all OF
the diseases of poultry be sure to let ii
alone. Don't get to thinking there are
millions" in the poultry business ioi
YOU unless you hustle. There are millions
in the business, but it takes time ano
labor t. get them out. Remember TINS
1t is an impossibility to produce eggs
and lice at the same time; one business
is entirely separate from the other.
