Santa Clara Goes Ashore.

Seattle, Nov. 0-Steamer Santa Clara went ashore near Tacoma in fog last night. Tugs were still trying to pull her off this morning. She is said not to be damaged.
 The Santa Clara arrived here from Seward yesterday. She was on her way to Tacoma with copper ore, from Latouche, Alaska, for the shelter there, when she grounded. The steamer will probably go on the dry dock for repairs when she returns from Tacoma, as she has needed new tail shaft for some time.

Case at WaIIingford, Vt.

Manchester, N. H.. Dec. New
evidence discovered, today, regarding
the shooting of young John Ritter OF

house, Tuesday evening, led Chief
Hea!y to put James E. Maynard of

the January term of the superior court
and in default of bail was committed to
Jail. The grand jury may be further
asked to return an Indictment for in
tent to kill or for ROBBERY.
Until today the police thought the
affair accidental and Maynard, who
claimed to have accidentally discharged
the weapon while showing it to his
visitors, was simply held on suspicion
Today, Joseph Langolois, the boarding
house keeper, told Chief Healy that
Maynard bought the revolver with the
avowcd intention of shooting a mill
worker who had 'insulted' him, and
that he was caught running from the
house with Riter's pockethooK after the
shooting.
Joseph Barnes and Frank M. Sund-
quist, who were present in the room,
said Maynard wrestled with Ritter in
vain effort to take his pocketbook
from him, then deliberately loaded his
revolver, commanded "hands up" and
after counting "one, two, three" shot

am the tenant of house sadly
racked by the storm of time.
The roof leaks, the windows rat

fuses to make any other repairs. :"

Mr.. Greene went to examine
the property for an eastern syn

mines five days he could not
sample them thoroughly, since
there are 20 or more claims in

value.
The property has been known

a WOMAN WHO SUCCEEDED.

Writing of American Women
in Business" in the New Idea
Woman's Magazine for August,
Miss Elizabeth Howard West
wood says IF you talk to the
heads of business concerns which
employ large numbers of women,
they will tell you stories which
tax your credulity. One of
Chicago's biggest department
stores has as the buyer of its
jewelry a woman who started in
as messenger girl twelve years
ago. Her parents were the
poorest Russian immigrants.
She was kept in school only until
she was of working age. From
the first she showed unusual in
telligence and industry, and has
risen rapidly from step to step
until she now draws salary OF
S.. 900 a year, and makes nearly
as much again on her commits
sions. She has passed many men
in her race and won out entirely
on the grounds of her Industrial
efficiency. This is, of course, o
case so unusual that it seems al
most to belong to the class OF
miraculous occurrences. But 1t
has proved that, given the ahil-
ity, sex is no obstacle.

MoLYsDEHITE IN IDAHO COUNTY.

A discovery of importance is
reported from Idaho county, Ida.
This is of a body of molybdenite
of a value so great as to stagger
the imagination. The metal is
worth S., 800 per ton, and in the
deposit discovered in the Gem
state, the second in the United
States, there is said to be hun
dreds of tons. The Idaho Free
Press tells the story of the dis
covery as follows 4
William Bonner, Ira McGary
and L. ]. Phelan have made the
richest discovery of precious
metal ever found in the state.
Last May, on the south fork of
Salmon river, near Frank
Smiths ranch, and about IA
miles from Warren, they un-
earthed a metal that is known as
molybdenite, or sulphide of
molybdenum, the value of the
peculiar metal, as secured from
the government prices on preci-
Gus metals is S2.75 per pound, or
So, 500 per ton. The discoverers
believe they have many hundred
tons in a very close distance
from the surface; they have
ledge 35 feet wide and have
traced it distance of $500 feet
along the side of a steep hill
where the discovery was first
made. For 40 years the ledge
has been exposed and trampled
over by prospectors, who never
for a moment dreamed of its
value. The principal use of the
metal is an alloy in the manufac-
ture of gun metal, and this, with
one other mine, are the only two
finds ever located in the United
States, which, owing to the
scarcity, makes the value so ex-
ceedingly high.
THE contact in which molyb-
denum is found is known as
dyrite and graphite, and contains
a large per cent of brassy-look-
ing mineral composition, carry
ing pyrite and marcasite, known
as sulphides of iron, making the
discovery a smelling PROPOSE
ton of such a nature that no
difficulty will be encountered in
the extraction of the mineral.
The molybdenum is very soft and
can be scraped off with the finger
nail, which fact, owing to the
large body of ore, will make it
an exceedingly easy property to
work.
There has not been extensive
work done as yet, but the gentle
men who own the property de-
parted for there last Sunday,
prepared to open up the claim
by fall so that more can be learn
ed of its value. The metal is so
uncommon that the progress of
developing the mine by the own
ers will be watched with unusual
interest. There is no doubt this,
as well as many other discover
les, will further prove the un-
limited wealth of Idaho county. "
