nothing but costs for the complain
ants. Judge Robinson yesterday dis
missed the bill. Robertson & Wilder

Walker and Attorney General Andrews
for respondents Holloway and Fisher,
Superintendent of Public Works and
Auditor Of the Territory, respectively.
The call for proposals stated that

the lowest bidder and, for a check, de-
posted a certified draft on Theo. II.

Mr.. Cooper claimed a default against
the Superintendent Of Public Works on
the ground of failure to answer the
complaint, but the court allowed an
amendment of pleadings and the battle
proceeded. Mr.. Cathcart with bunch
of authorities, contended that it was
in reality an action against the Terri
tory, for which the law provided n
procedure. and mandamus would not
lie against a Government officer in the
premises.
Counsel for complainant held that a
contract existed. which was compul-
sorry on the Superintendent to carry

due to it on that account. 1t was the

which Mr.. Peters replied that he had

replication to the effect that Watson's
wages for road work had been held
back by Henry Cobb Adams, who is
both tax collector and chairman of

uty sheriff.

Are In Good Body Of
Ore.

From j. b. Hassett we learn
that w. J. Crane will leave for
Denver next week to purchase an
air compressor and drill, with
which to facilitate development
work on the Copper Bar property.
The Copper Bar is one of the
best prospects in the upper coun-
try and is being developed syste-
matically, work having been
prosecuted without a hitch for
several years and the mine is now
reaching a stage where there can
be no doubt as to its value as a
copper property.
The work is now in a diorite
formation which is impregnated
throughout with copper pyrites,
and it is confidently expected this
property will reach a stage where
shipment of ore can be commenced
in the spring. 1t has a good
strong company back of it and
they are deserving of much credit
and success as a result of their
labors and perseverance.

Satan Finds Mischief Still.

The Devil wal idle. He sat on
the hillside meditatiyely chewing
the end of his tail. The Angel
al reading to him from Records
of the Paleozoic Age, and the
Devil was very bored. This
happened long ago.
Finally as he sat cycling the
Angel with malicious intensity,
his face lighted up with an evil
inspiration. Without interrupts
ing the reading-for he was a per-
feet gentlemsn-he took a chunk
of misery from his pocket and
began kneading it between his
fingers. Affections were always
growing luxuriously in the DEVILS
vicinity, and he did not have to
reach far for the other ingredients
that he wanted. A pinch of DESC
lation was mixed into the misery
and then a handful Of torment, a
trihe too much tribulation and
generous measures of distress, sor.
row, grief, wretchedness, woe,
unhappiness, heartache. anguish,
suffering, calamity aud evil.
When it was all mixed smooth
ly and to his liking he laid ii in q
bed of rue near at hand and osten-
tatiously went on listening 10 the
Angels reading. In a very little
while, seeing out of the corner of
his eye that the time was ripe,
he plucked the Angel by the wing.
"Lookr' said the Devil.
And there in the bed OF rue was
growing the most rare white lilly
that the hillside had ever known
a great lotus blooming chalice,
pure, radiant, fragrant and filed
! with a handful of golden seeds.

Coal Finds Cancel Entries.

Thousands of settlers on desert
land in North Park will be conf
PEELED soon to cancel their entries,
as it has been discovered by
Special Land Agent j. F. Jenal,
who has returned to Denver from
an extended investigation of that
region, that almost the whole of
North Park is underlaid with a
blanket formation of valuable
marketable coal, and is therefore
coal land and is open to entry as
such. The settlers on desert land
have been notified of this discov-
cry and summoned to appear
before the land Office here, where
their entries will be cancelled.
By this discovery many jewellers
in North Park will be made home
less. Most of the desert land
entries we're made in good faith
by people ignorant of the rich
coal deposits underlying their
lands, and the cancellation will
fall the hardest on these. The
attention of the land Office officials
was directed to that region by the
large number of applications fol-
