August Schiller and Albert Russi,
of Kendall, have bonded to Willis G.
Moore, the noted expert and operator
of Colorado Springs, Colo., most
promising group of claims in the
North Moccasin district, together with
q mill site and three water rights.
The claims included in this deal are
the Cape Nome, White Elk, Fourth of
July, Elizabeth, Bombshell. Powhat-
tan and Sassacass. The option runs
time. Mr.. Moore is to expend $4,000
in developing the properties. At the
expiration of that time, he will secure
the deeds to the claims on payment
of $4,000. The deeds have been plac-
ed in escrow in the First National
bank.
Mr.. Moore is thoroughly familiar
with the North Moccasin district, as
he has conducted drilling operations
there covering long period of time,
as well as an extensive area.
Parties just in from Yogo report that
the winter operations at the sapphire
mines are over. And that the forces
of men employed are being increased.
The only difference between winter
and summer opeI ations, of course, is
that some work that is pushed in sum-
mer is not possible in extremely cold
weather.
The mines of the London company
are said to be in finer shape now
than ever before, A large amount of
vein matter has been taken out, and
it is rich in gems, many of them be-
ing of the highest grade as to size.
color, form and brilliancy. Through
the winter about 40 men have been
employed by the New Mines Sapphire
Syndicate, and the number will be in
creased to Is through the summer sea-
son. It is said that the output this
year will greatly surpass that of any
previous season, and that some really
notable sapphires will reach the mar.
ket.

JOHANNESBURG, March 25.-The

approval throughout South Africa. The
Cape Times considers 1T certain that
as Lord Selborne is a member of the
present ministry and therefore identi-
fed with their South African policy.
there will be no change in the ideals
which guided Lord Miner. The ap-
pointment, adds the journal, should

which asked for the best that England
could send to succeed Lord Miner.

Lord Selborne had no previous con-

ST. PETERSBURG, March 25.--Rus-
sian officials are not pulling well to-
gether. Mons. Shibloffsky, president of
the imperial commission of inquiry into
workmen's grievances, has frequently
requested Gen. Trepoff to release a
number of imprisoned operatives in the
interests of peace, but the governor
general obstinately refuses. He be-
lieves in making wholesome exam
pies" In the meanwhile the real
struggle between the governing and the
governed has been transferred to
lower plane, where spies, detectives and
secret agents flourish. The man who
fired upon Gen. Trepoff some time ago
has been induced TO turn informer, and
many of his former comrades have
been arrested, but the trump card or
the police would seem to be the play
ing off of nationality against nation
ality, class against class, and religion

seriously harbored, the results may be
calamitous.. Reasons for believing that
it is entertained are numerous. Here
are few.
