A SAD ACCIDENT.
Chas. Leindecker Falls from Grain
Stack and Is Impaled ON Sharp
Stick.

Chas. Leindecker, age1 twenty
years, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Ed Lem
decker, residing in Potosi township,
was the victim Of a distressing ac-
cident Friday which terminated
fatally.
The young man was engaged with
a threshing crew and was at work
on the grain stack. In some man
ner he lost his balance and fell to
the ground. A sharp stake with the
point upturned was in the course of
his fall and he fell upon it and was
impaled.
He was at once removed to his
home and Drs. McGovern of Potosi
and Doolittle Of Lancaster were
summoned to attend him. Every
thing that skill and loving hands
could do was done, but to no avail
and the unfortunate young man
passed away on the following morn
ing, his 10th birthday.
The funeral services were held
Sunday morning and the procession
that wended it's way to the Burton
church was one of the longest ever
seen in that section. Rev. Bennett
of Potosi delivered the sermon. De-
ceased was member Of the M. w.
A. camp of Burton. A delegation of
Potosi Woodmen accompanied the
remains and had charge Of the
ceremonies, 3. A. Berge being
master. 1nterment took place in the
Burton cemetery, the following
gentlemen acting, as pail bearers:
James Elwell, Will Elwell, Francis
Reed, Perry Peed, Heimuit Fritz and
Will Keehner.
MIR. Leindecker was a promising
young man, held in high esteem by
all who knew him and his shocking,
untimely death is widely mourned.

Something About the
PlatteVilIe Mines.
(By Harrison Garner.)

The name Platteville, the center
Of the zinc mining district of South
western Wisconsin, is as rapidly
coming into prominence in mining
circles, as has that Of Joplin in con-
nection with the zinc industry of
Missouri.
The three most important mines
Of the Wisconsin region are located
within or near the city limits Of
Platteville. These mines are the
Empire, Enterprise, and Platte.
The Empire and Enterprise have
been valuable producers for the last
two years. They are paying from
S., to $1,000 ii dividends each
month, and stock in either is worth
from $500 to 5000 a share.
The platte is a recent discovery.
This company was organized in the
spring Of 1895, and began operations
June lst. AT the time of che or
ganization, however, the mine had
been discovered and opened up by
the Trego Zine Mining Company.
A contract was entered into with
the latter company whereby they
were to ruin over the lease on the
ground covering twenty acres, the
ore Ga the dump, valued at approx
iinately $4,000, and to thoroughly
equip the property with over $50, 900
worth Of machinery. This machin-
cry was to be transferred to the
I'sPlatte" free Of cost, SO that the
new company started operations
entirely free from debt. To open

NUTS PLENTIFUL.
Bushes Killed by DrOuth Have Re-
yived-Last of Hop Industry.

Hazel nuts are said to be very
plentiful this year, and are now
ripe enough to pick, although it
would be better if a heavy frost xiii
led the burrs before they are gath
fered. These nuts have been quite
plentiful for the past two years;
three or four seasons ago they were
very scarce. AT one time the
bushes were killed and injured by
drouth and the nuts were very
scarce. However, ample rains for
two years have revived the bushes
and the nuts are quite plentiful
again. Hickory nuts are not as
plentiful as they were years ago,
and trees have been killed off by
drouth and cold winters Butter
nuts and walnuts are quite plentiful
and the trees have not been injured
to any extent.
Wild grapes are good crop this
year, and an early variety has
commenced to ripen already. There
appears to be two kind Of wild
grapes. One variety ripens in Aug
ust and the first part of September,
while the other does not get ripe
until after the heavy frosts. The
latter variety is said to be preferable
for wine.
There are some wild hops this
year, but the crop is not very plen-
tiful in this section. Some forty or
fifty years ago, hops were culti-
waited in these parts, and was a
staple crop. Good money could be
realized by raising them, but for
some reason the industry has died
out and the large hop sheds and
huge presses have crumbled into
decay, and in most cases have en-
tirely disappeared.

were not dependent upon prospects
only, but had, ready for the produc-
ton of ore, valuable mine, far in
excess of anything yet discovered in
the entire district.
/ Some idea of the magnitude of
the equipment of this mine can be
had from glance at the accompany
ing cut, even though the plant was
far from completion when the
photograph was taken.
The rs #. chimney in the fore
ground is the avenue of escape of
the smoke from the go Fl. p boiler
in the engine room. Another so #.
stack has since been erected at the
rooster, the building to the right.
I A 5-jig, 100 ton concentrating
mill, driven by a rs H. P. steam
engine, has been running nearly
two months. The New Model
rooster, an invention of Mr.. Trego,
has proven success in roasting the
ore, preparatory to the removal OF
the iron marcasite from the con-
centrates by the electromagnetic
separator.
The engine room contains go

cage, ore cars for the mill, ore cars
for the mine, pipe lines for air to

air pump for drawing the impure
air from the mine, form only part
of the remaining complete outfit
of the plant.
The main hosting shaft of the
"Platte" was put down LAG feet, to
within $ feet of the claybed. Tun-
nels were then run east and west
and carried around to cut the vein
of ore at this level. While the vein
IN the shaft was only 6 or s inches
in thickness, the ore in the uprise in
the west drift is in larger veins,
some of which are more than is

There's liable to be an ice fam
inc on in Lancaster unless cooler
weather sets in soon. Anton Schmitt
took the last piece out OF his houses
Friday but with forethought had
ordered a carload from Madison
firm which stood ON the track ready
to be packed. He believes this will
run his customers until October LIST
when ice will no longer be a neces-
sity for residence users at least.
Horoce Hampton, the other dealer,
cancelled all contracts with private
patrons last week and is simply sup
plying the big users for balance OF
the season.

/ The Woman's club will hold it's
first meeting with Mrs. A. g. Knapp
(at residence of C. W. Knapp
Monday, Sept. 25th, at 8 o'clock.
The last meeting of the previous
season proved SO interesting that a
similar program has been prepared
for the opening of the present sea-
son, concerning notable features of
of Wisconsin. The roll call respon-
ses will be quotations from Wis
consin writer's. All interested will
be welcome whether club members
or not.

Willie, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Gus
Laabs, aged 2 years and months,
passed away at the family home in
North Lancaster on the 18th inst.
Funeral obsequies were conducted
by Rev. Zenliski at the German
Lutheran church at Liberty and in
terment took place in the adjacent
cemetery. Parents and two sisters
mourn. The bereaved ones thank
the many friends and neighbors for
the acts of kindness extended them
and for the beautiful flowers.

inches thick. Drifting has shown
that the ore in the main vein in
some places is three .eet thick.
Parallel veins have been found at a
height of 60 feet, so that the body
of ground taken out will probably
be so or 70 feet in height and 80 or
40 feet in width.
Owing to the sinking Of the
ground at the surface to the north
of the shaft, 1t is almost certain flat
large bodies of ore will yet be
found to the north and west. There
is an old lead range 1875 feet north
of the shaft, which was never
worked deeper than 40 feet on &C
count Of the water. The surface
along this range has been sinking
since pumping was started, showing
that there is connection between
it and the vein Of ore now being
worked.
I Taking all this into consideration,
some idea of the extent of the
resources of this mine can be had.
Without doubt, another year will
bring this mine into prominence as
the greatest zinc producing mine in
the region It may also show us
numbers of others, then only in
their infancy, but in the future to
be as valuable as the Empire, the
Enterprise, and the Platte now are.
