Michael Harrington Dead.

Michael Ambrose Harrington, one OF
the widest known residents of this city,
passed away Sunday evening. Death
was caused from pneumonia, which
malady the deceased had contracted less
than week before his demise. A week
ago last Sunday, in company with his
wife, he drove to Nederand and shortly
after his return was taken sick and never
rallied, but grew gradually worse. The
funeral occurred Wednesday morning
from the Church of the Assumption and
was largely attended, Indicating the es-
TEEN in which the deceased was held by
his fellow citizens. Interment was made
in the Catholic cemetery.
Michael Harrington was 30 years of
age. He was native of Wisconsin and
resided 10 Central City thirty years. Be-
sides being member of the Hibernians,
he carried insurance in the A. O. U. w.
A wife, one son and one daughter sur

The Evergreen.

The stone foundation being built on
the Evergreen property in Apex is about
completed and work will then be CON-
menced on the 60x100 foot shaft house
which is to be erected. After the shaft
house and machinery are in readiness
sinking will be commenced. The shaft
house is being placed near the mouth of
the 5o0-foot tunnel the company has been
driving the past year or more. Work on
the tunnel is to be abandoned as soon as
sinking is commenced. 1t is expected
that the large copper dyke will be cut
about fifty feet in from the mouth of the
tunnel. A shaft has been started and is
now down a short distance. This will
be enlarged into a cage shaft and at
present the enlargement made is down
about thirty feet.
When the company commences to sink
it is intended to work the property ex-
tensively to determine the extent of the
dyke. Work on the property the past
year and half has been confined solely
to driving the tunnel and cross cuts and
during that time very little ore has been
taken out, perhaps three or four cars in
all. This ran very high in copper nett
ing from S6500 to 5000 per ton The
Evergreen is bound to become very
rich copper mine if the dyke proves as
extensive as it is thought to be, and the
stock, which is now worth sl0O per
share, will doubtless go much higher.
All the stock was taken off the marae
at the last meeting of the stockholders
held in September, with the exception
OF 5000 shares. a little over a year ago
when the stock was first placed on til g
has gradually gone up until now it has
reached the dollar mark.

SUICIDE.
Body Of Man Found on North
Clear Creek.

The body OF an unknown dead man
was found last Sunday afternoon about
two miles from Black Hawk on North
Clear creek by Frank Mccoy and J. F.
Harrington OF this city. They were roam
ing about the hills and had climbed up
an incline about fifty feet from the road
to inspect some ore in the dump from an
abandoned tunnel, when they made the
discovery. The body was lying in the
mouth of the tunnel and was almost
hidden from view.
They reported their find at once to the
coroner and Undertaken Tippett went to
the tunnel and brought the body to this
city. According to the statements made
by the undertaken, indications would
point that the man had committed sui
eide. On his person were found several
empty capsules, an empty three-ounce
medicine bottle and glass. Beside the
body lay a canteen containing some wa
ter. The man before taking his life had
spread his overcoat on the ground and
placed his handkerchief and gloves un-
der his head. His hat covered his face,
protecting it from the rays of the sun.
All trace of Identification had been
destroyed before the man committed the
rash act. A photograph Of family
group, presumably that of the dead
mans, was found next to his heart. On
this he had erased the name of the gal
lery at which the picture was taken, but
on close examination the fact was reveal
ed that it had been taken at the Arizona
gallery, the name of the city not being
given. Michael & Shillcock we're the
photographers.
The man was fairly we'll dressed, wear
ing standing collar, laundered stiff
shirt, brown coat and vest, dark striped
pants and short brown overcoat. His
hat was of the celebrated King make.
and on the inside band was stamped the
name of the store at which it had been
purchased Brothers & Co.,
Imperial, Cal. In the pockets of his
clothing we're found pocket book, con-
tanning only five cents and pair of nose
glasses.
Several of the citizens remembered
having seen the man about the streets
as late as Friday last. 1t was thought,
by the condition of the body when found,
that he had been dead only short time,
perhaps two days.
The undertaken having charge of the
remains has exerted every effort to
locate some Of the relatives of the dead
man, but up to the time of going to press
had been unsuccessful. He thought
possibly it was the body of the man who
had been missing from Coffeeville, Kas.,
as the description tallies closely with
that given by the wife Of the missing
man and published in the Denver pa
pers of Sunday morning. The city au-
thorities of Denver were communicated
with and asked to write the woman in
Coffeeville, telling her of the suicide of
the unknown man and giving his descrip-
ton. Nothing had been heard from her
up to this morning.
