Last Monday evening the members
of the Rebekah lodge met at their hall
in the Odd Fellow block for the pur-
pose of giving Miss Anna Long a
linen shower. After this had been
done little surprise was given the
popular member by the addition of a
tin shower as it was thought that a
stock of tinr'are would be essential in
her new position of housewife. Not

Slight Fire.

A fire occurred at about 1l:30 o'clock
last Sunday night on Bates hill, in a
house opposite the residence OF George
st. John. The property was occupied
by Mrs. Durham Ivey, but she had been
away for several weeks, having just re.
turned home on the day OF the fire, and
had been to the house in the afternoon
looking over her furniture with the view
of disposing Of it. She is at loss to
know how the fire originated as she
claims there were no stoves up at the
time, and Furthermore, she had not 80
much as lighted match during her
short visit to the place. She was not in
the house at the time the fire occurred
and therefore is OF the opinion that it
was OF incendiary origin.
The flames were discovered in the up.
per story Of the house, between the roof
and the ceiling. An alarm was sounded
from Mountain City and Central and
both companies responded. The fire was
extinguished, but not until considerable
damage had been done to the building
and its furnishings. Some Of the furni.
ture was taken out without being dam.

severely scalded about the back and

the water into the tub when the child,
who was playing about the floor backed
into it. There was only about an inch
Of water 10 the bottom Of the tub, which
accounts for the injuries to the little

Ruling in Mine Suit.

An important ruling in the case of Eu-
gene e. Clark, the International Trust
company OF Denver ct al, against the
Gregory and Bobtail Mining company of
Gilpin county, was made in the federal
court today by Judge Hallett, who over
ruled demurrer by the defendant for
the dismissal of the suit.
The Gregory and Bobtail mine was
one of the first located in the state.
In January, 1908, the Boston and Con-
solidated Mining and Milling company
owned the. property, upon which were
two mortgages, aggregating $4,000, held
by parties not named il the suit and the
International Trust company. There
was also floating Indebtedness Of SD,-
900, which had been loaned by Clark.
Three trustees were soon afterward ap-
pointed for the property with the agree
ment that they were to sell it for the
benefit OF the creditors as soon an posi-
BILE. These trustees we're Theophilis
King and Dudley Porter of Massachu-
sets and Edward Hurlbut of Colorado.
King and Porter then organized a
company and Incorporated in Maine un-
der the name Of the Gregory and Bob
tail Mining company and, according to
the charges, froze out Hurlbut. They
decided the mining property held in
trust over to this company, says the com
plant. and King put 10 his son as mana
ger and his trusted employees as clerks.
The Gregory and Bobtail company was
capitalized for 100000 shares of stock,
none of which was issued to the credit
ors, the complainant states.
In the complaint King and Porter
were charged with being unfit for trus.
tees and their removal was asked. The
defendants fled a demurrer alleging
want OF equity, which, il sustained
would have meant the dismissal OF the
case. This demurrer was overruled this
morning Post Of Friday.

Electric Line to Alice-Yankee.

The building Of an electric, rapid tran
sit railway line between this city and
Yankee hill is the next important step
in the progress and material advance
ment Of the district, and such an event
may be expected at an early day.
For some time local parties have been
quietly working upon this project, and
while the utmost secrecy has been main
tanned, we are in position to positively
state that eastern capitalists have not
only become interested but are already
on the ground, Investigating the re.
sources of the region to be opened, the
feasibility and cost OF the proposed line,
etc. In addition to this, and what con.
s,itutes potential element OF success,
the willingness OF leading local capital
lists to take slice in the enterprise is
being ascertained, and 80 far the results
have been gratifying in this respect. 1t
is safe to say that everything. now hinges
upon the experts estimate of the rich.
ness Of the field to be opened and the
amount Of traffic to be expected. His re-
port, Of course, will be confined to the
freight branch OF the business, based
entirely upon the present development
OF the mines and the ore blocked out.

THE CELEBRATION.
Fourth to be Periodically OBJ
served.

Arrangements for the Fourth OF July
celebration to be held in this city, com.
mencing with the third, are we'll under
way. All the mouoy subscribed by the
business men, has been signed for and
the committee is now in shape to pro-
gress rapidly with the other features Of
the celebration. The bills advertising
the event, are being printed and will be
distributed this week throughout this
county, Jefferson and Clear Creek. Very
liberal rates have been made by the
Colorado & Southern railway from
points along the Clear Creek division
and indications are that crowds will
come from Golden. Idaho Springs,
Georgetown and Silver Plume.
The local fire department has adopted
Jules governing their tournament and
these will be sent to outside companies,
together with an invitation, asking them
to participate in the races. The boys
have been having frequent meetings the
past week, making arrangements for the
tournament and will com nence practic-
Ng with the cart shortly. Between 5000
and s40O has been offered as prizes for
the hose races.
One feature OF the program this year
which unfortunately was overlooked in
the celebration two years ago, is the
rock drilling contest for the miners
For this event prize Of from $175 to
5000 will be offered.
The program Of all the events has not
been completed as yet, nor have the
funds been apportioned fo- ell the prizes.
This work will require a short time long
er and when finished, a complete list will
be published in the papers.
Now that the celebration is sure go
everyone should take an interest in the
event and boost it as much as possible.
Any suggestion that can be offered,
which will in any way assist the com
mittee in its work will be greatly ap
preciated. Those who haven't lent fl.

District Court.

The June term OF the district court
was opened Monday morning, Judge DE
France having arrived from Golden on
the II o'clock train. Numerous attor-
neys OF this city and from outside points
were present. Very little work was ac-
complished aside from the setting OF
cases for subsequent hearing. These
numbered seven, all civil. No criminal
cases have been entered on the docket
for trial at this session. Possibly the
most important case to be heard is that
Of Bacharach vs. Owen, suit for the
payment of moneys due laborers who
were employed by the defendant while
he had the contract for the construction
Of the city reservoir, the plaintiff having
bought the accounts OF the workmen.
This case involves several other mer-
chants besides Mr.. Bacharach, who have
accounts against men who were en-
ployed on the reservoir. Every attorney
in the town with the exception of one
has been engaged to represent claim
ants. The money due the laborers
through Owen is held by the city, pend
ing the action of the court in this trial,
and will be paid in accordance with the
Instructions Of the court to whoever it
rightfully belongs.
Besides setting cases for hearing,
Judge DeFrance rendered his opinion in
the case OF David H. Moffat vs. L. Stern
berger, to set aside tax deed obtained by
the defendant, which was tried at the
last session Of the district court and was
taken under Amusement. He decided in
favor of the plaintiff.
After the above business was settled
court adjourned until next Monday
morning, when the several cases will be
brought up for trial.

The Ball Game.

A very interesting game OF ball was
played Sunday at the city park grounds
between the Gilpins Of this city and the
Barnetts of Denver. Both mines played
a swift game, and had it not been for a
few blunders made by the home team at
the beginning, the score would doubtless
have been reversed. From the third
inning on. no run was made by either
side, and the playing Of both teams was
splendid. The attendance was unusu-
ally large and the spectators displayed
considerable enthusiasm. Following is
the score by innings, after which ap-

BASE BALL NOTES.
Manager Stout Of the local ball team
has arranged with the Barnetts to play a
series OF three games in this city next
month, commencing July I'd and con-
cluding July 4th, inclusive. A prize has
been offered for the team winning two
out Of the three games.
The Gilpins are thinking Of changing
the name OF their team to that Of the
Owls. The change will be made this
week or next. The object in giving the
nine the new name is because several OF
the members belong to the Owl club and
will therefore receive the hearty support
and cooperation of that organization.
New suits will be ordered Immediately.
Manager Stout is thinking of enclos-
ing the grounds with a canvas wall
about eight or ten feet high to prevent
those who are too tight" to put up the re-
quired admission fee from seeing the
games. This system of enclosure is
used by travelling ball teams, such as the
Sioux Indians who go FROM town to
town and play local mines. 1t is very
good scheme and works to satisfaction.
As soon as game is finished the canvas
can be taken down and rolled up IN very
short time with very little trouble, and
it only requires very little work to place
it in position. Guards will be stationed
about the grounds and anyone caught
mutilating the canvas will be placed
where their friends will have to talk to
them through iron bars.
The Black Hawk base ball club and
the c. P. us, tCan Pusher's Uniop) team
OF this city met at city park Sunday
morning for sociable game. The Black
Hawk boys were easy picking for the
home team and when the game was over
the score stood q to in favor OF the
Can Pushers. Williamson and Booth were
the battery for Black Hawk and Costello
and Driscoll for the Central team.
A game of ball between the local nine
and the Coltrells, Of Denver, has been
arranged for Sunday. The Cottrells are
a good team and therefore a very inter.
estins game is anticipated for Sunday

WORST STORM IN YEARS
SCORE OF LIVES LOST AND MUCH
DAMAGE TO SHIPPING ON
THE GREAT LAKES.

Duluth, Sept. 6.-Eighteen or twenty
lives were lost and property valued
at 100000 was destroyed in the furi-
Gus storm that swept over Lake Supe-
rior. The gale was the most destruc-
tive to lake shipping that has been
experienced in many years. Besides
the wreck of the steamer Sevona,
which broke in two on Sand Island
reef, seven Of the crew losing their
lives, it Is now believed that two more
ships were lost with their entire
crews. One of these is the schooner
PretoriaNof Bay City, Mich. the larg-
est sailing ship on fresh water and
carrying crew of ten men. The other
is believed to be the schooner Olive
jeanette, which carried a crew Of
seven men.
Five of the Pretoria's crew of ten
were drowned by the capsizing of the
yawl in which the crew took refuge
when the boat began to founder. The
Olive jeanette, 1t is believed, went to
the bottom about ten miles from
Portage.
The new steel steamer Stakhu ar
rived at the 500 on her first trip with
her hatch covers SO badly sprung that
water poured continually into the hold.
One of the crew was washed over
board,
The whaleback steamer Samuel
Mather also lost one of her crew
overheard. The terrific battering the
gives rise to the gravest fears for the
safety of many wooden ships which
have not yet reported.
The monetary loss of the Sevona is
placed at $4,000, while that of the
Pretoria is estimated at $4,000.
