EXTENSION TELEPHONE SET
AIDES IN CROOKS CAPTURE
Woman Whispers Message TO the
Minneapolis Police,

a full fledged negro burglar was
captured at the home of Henry o.
Peierce, 1415 North Meridian street,
about O'Clock this morning, says
the indianapolis News of July cath.
The capture was largely due to the
bravery of Mary Harold. the house
keeper. who heard the man prowl-
ing about the house The police
surprised the burglar and caught him
hiding behind a door. There is con-
elusive evidence that he is the burg
lar who visited a number of North
Side homes.
Mrs. Pierce had an extension tele-
phone in her room and when she
was awakened by Miss Harold she
called police headquarters, In
whisper. just lound enough for the
desk sergeant to hear through the
phone, Mrs Pierce told him that
burglars were in the house and to
send the police. Bicyclemen Hall
and Mullen fairly raced to the place,
and they were admitted by Miss Har-
old. With their revolvers drawn the
police went from room to room as
fast as the lights were switched on.
The house was pretty thoroughly
searched without the burglars being
found, and the bicyclemen supposed
that the affair was burglar scare. -
Miss Harold was positive in de-
claring that she heard a man in the
house and she pointed to articles OF
value that had been piled about on
the lower floor as evidence that there
/ had been an intruder She finally
walked into Mr.. Pierce's den and
| turned on the lights. She did not
see anything in the room to excite
I her suspicion that anyone was pres
ent, and she walked out. A mo
ment later one of the bicyclemen
| looked dehind door in the den and
there stood a burly negro. The bur.
/ glar surrendered and he stepped out
prisoner.
We have low rates on these instru,
ments now. You may be sorry II
you do not have an extension tele
! phone in your house.

BARBER KILLS BARBER.

Ed. Mcmillan, young barber, well
known in several western Colorado
towns, was killed at Meeker a few
days ago by r.. f. Thornton. another
barber Regarding the AFFAIR the
Glenwood Avalanche of Saturday S
date says:
Word was received here from
Meeker last night of the killing of
Ed. Mcmillan who is well known here
and whose parents are residing here.
The young man was killed by h. e.
Thornton, a barber of that town,
without any known reason. Young
Mcmillan had a barber shop in the
Ball hotel and doing an excellent
business and it is thought that the
shooting was business jealousy
Thorneon has been in business here
a long time and is an elderly man.
The shot entered the right side and
death came in 30 minutes.
Mr.. Edward Mcmillan, father of
the young man, left for Meeker last
night and will return from there with
the remains. Young Mcmillan was
about "a years of age and married
He was a boy who was well liked
while he was here and he worked
in the Glenwood barbershop for some
time. He was workman who was
able to keep his friends and custo-
mers in that line, and that generally
means success. Thornton Is reported
as very quiet fellow who never
quarrels and is as straight as

season has now reached its heighth,
although the association managers
would not be at all surprised if the
of the next few days should
go beyond all former records. The
Grand Junction association branch
here leads with 101 cars up to
Thursday.
Thompson, Warner and Richards
gather an average of thousand
boxes of their eight acre tract every
day now and will probably realize
a total yield of $4,000 boxes this
year. They made their first ship
ment the 2Sth.
Miss Bessie Powell was the envy
of her companion workers at the
Peach Growers association the other
day when she accomplished the ex-
traordinary feat of earning $4.S5
packing peaches and pears. This was
mighty good performance for one
day and the young lady is looked up
on as something of wender.
Last week George Middendorf, Jr.,
sold his 14-acre peach orchard near
Clifton for $4,000. 1t is set to 2
year old peach trees. Mr.. hidden
dorf purchased the place of A. Sim
onson less than two years ago for
$4,000
The Palisade association is averag-
ing eight cars per day. the banner
day being Thursday, when something
over nine carloads were received and
shipped. The next day eight were
loaded and three left on the platform.
They had up to Thursday shipped out
100 cars. Express shipments are
averaging car day with them at
present.
When the extension to the Grand
Junction association platform was
built it was thought that all the
space would not be needed this year,
but perhaps next seasons crop might
require the entire capacity. However.
all calculations Con peach crops) go
wrong in Palisade, for already the
entire platform space is being utiliz-
ed and perhaps in 1907 another ex-
tension will have to be built.

Bella Bell. only thirteen years of
age, made a remarkable record wrap
ping Elbertas at the Peach Growers
day before yesterday. She succeed
ed in handling $50 boxes of extras
in nine and three-quarters consecutive
hours. remarkable performance
when her age and the fact that she
had to wait upon the supply of peach
es a number of times are taken into
consideration. Those who were pres
ent are of the opinion that had she
been given extra fancys her record
for the day would have reached 800
boxes.

HERE'S AN OFFER
TO THINK ABOUT

Our property. seven full claims, is
located in the Sinbab valley. in the
foot hills of the La Sale mountains
in the extreme southwest corner of
Mesa county, colorado. The strike
extends northwest by southeast, is in
the carbonacious shales, blue lime
being the country rock, with quartz
titles and eruptive periphery between
walls. The deposit is mostly an
aqueous crystalization, consisting of
sulphates, oxides and carbonates in
contact or separated with blue lime.
The vein varies from to 3 feet in
width and extends the length of the
entire property. Assays run from
10 per cent copper and 10 ounces in
silver to so per cent copper and 200
ounces of silver, besides about So
so in gold, and fine indication of
uranium, with an average run in eX-
cess of 8 per cent copper and GO
ounces of silver. We have prospect
ed said property the entire length,
having spent many thousands of dol
lars, and find that the vein contin-

wealth as it goes down. a fine vein
of carbonate of iron, within our own

are the oily fluxes needed to reduce
this ore. Plenty of water power
near at hand and an abundance of
fuel. The only impeachment to the
successful operation of these mines
even when their products are very
low, was the lack of transportation
This is still in our way, but we have
remedied a part of it and now have
decided to part with limited amount
of Treasury stock, for the purpose of
constructing ore roads and putting
in the necessary machinery.
| One-third of all the stock was
placed in the treasury so that we will
always have sufficient means to
bridge any necessary expense, but
only small block is offered at this
time. as we are confident that as soon
as we have transportation facilities
that the mines will Immediately place
themselves on paying basis now
that the price oil their products nave
