The largest gold nugget ever
found in Osceola is said to have
been worth $4,000. Abe Shallen-
burger, who is now residing in
Ely, once found one valued at ST.
900; the Hydraulic Company
found one valued at $4,000 or
thereabouts ; some Cinnamon dug
up one worth $1,Ioo; two Cornish
boys, working together, once
found one worth 1000. These
are but a few of the many mug
gets found here, but they are
enough to prove that we are not
joshing when we say this is gold

Some woolless sheep have been
newly brought to this country,
says the Washington Post. They
are fawn colored, somewhat re-
sembling Jersey cattle in hue, and
quite small, not exceeding 100
pounds in weight. Some sheep
weighing over 400 pounds.
These animals are of very pc
culiar breed, which is known no
where except in Barbados. 1t
was from these islands that the
specimens imported by the gov
ernment were obtained. The gen.
eral belief is that the variety was
originally brought to Barbados
from Africa, but nobody knows
with certainty. Though lacking
wool, they have very superior
meat, it is said.
The imported specimens have
been placed on the Arlington farm
conducted by the Department OF
Agriculture, across the Potomac
from the city of Washington. An
effort will be made to find out
what the sheep are good for, and
whether their meat is sufficiently
superior to ordinary mutton tc
make it worth while to introduce
the stock for breeding purposes in
the United States.

OLD AURORA.
"reminiscences Of Camp that is Again Com
ing to the Front.

Great interest has been revived
in the old county seat of Esmer-
aida county by an article on the
historic court house recently sold.
Edwin A. Sherman, pioneer of
the old town, now of Oakland, has
written for the press the following
interesting account of the erection
of the seat Of, justice " in Esmer-
aida county. Nearly all of the
pioneers of Aurora are now sleep
ing in some cemetery and there
are but few left to tell the story of
her former greatness
| have read with interest of
the sale of the old court house at
Aurora, and remember well when
it was built in IS63-64. At that
time | was owner and editor of
the Esmeralda Star, the first news
paper published in that town, and
first issued in May, 1862, and
printed on brown paper, the roads
over the Sierra Nevada being
blockaded until nearly July of that
year, when there was no -four to
be had on the eastern slope, and
everybody had to live on beef
straight and not few on the
first cut behind the horns or above
the hoofs.
When the court house was
first started, Aurora was double
county seat for Mono county. Ter
ritorv of Nevada, and we had
double representation in both leg
islatures, while the county govern
ment was under California juris-
diction, and our Mono representa-
tive was elected first as Speaker
of the Assembly. and then Lieu
tenant Governor of California. the
late Hon. T. N. Machin, whose re-
cent funeral / attended at East
Oakland nearly two weeks ago.
When the boundary line was run
it was found that Mono county
was 'out in the cold, and for a
county seat had to go into camp at
the hamlet of Bridgeport, where
the metallic color found in the
branch of the Walker River at and
near that place was tested in a
frying pan with bacon fat for an
amalgamator, and -four batter for
pulp, before being put through
the mill. The trout were excel
lent but | learned that there was
but little bait for county officers,
who for several years remained in
state of 'innocuous desuetude.'
But returning to the subject of
the old court house. At the time
the excavation was being made
for the foundation, the country
was in the midst of a civil war,
and fairs being held to aid the
treasury of the Sanitary Commits
sion, and Aurora, patriotically
speaking, was at white heat and
free contributions with women's
rights to work the pockets, which
were most thoroughly cleaned OF
the slightest metallic indication
there deposited. Rich specimens

LOSES GOOD CITIZEN.

agent for the Midland and Denver
and Rio Grande railway companies
in this city for the past year. left yes
terday morning over the Midland for
his home in Grand Junction, where
he Will engage in the livery business.
The resignation of Mr.. SilcoX as joint
agent was a surprise as well as a dis
appointment to his many friends in
this city, who regret that business
considerations compel him to leave
Aspen. All hope that his business
venture in the Junction Will prove a
brilliant success.
While we regret to announce the
departure of Mr.. Silcox the Democrat
takes much pleasure in announcing
that he Is to be succeeded by that
prince of good fellows and a man
among men, Cal Smith. We under
stand on what may be called authen-
tic authority that Mr.. Smith will ar
rive in Aspen in a short time and Will
take charge of the business of the two
railroads in Aspen. 1t is not neces-
sary to introduce Mr.. Smith as we

CANNOT DO 1T

Make Local Weather Bureau

The Request Turn
ed Down.

1t will be remembered that some
time ago efforts were inauguratei to
have the local weather bureau or sta
ton put in the first rank. The city
council and the Chamber of Com
merce passed resolutions asking the
national weather bureau department
to make the change.
This morning Secretary Aupperle,
of the Chamber of Commerce. receiy-
ed letter from Willis L. Moore, chief
of the United States weather bureau,
stating that resolution adopted by
the Chamber of Commerce asking
that the Grand Junction weather bur
eau be placed in the first rank. had
been considered but that It was not
practical to comply with the request
for the reason that such action would
necessitate the raising of the status of
number of other stations equally as
Important as the Grand Junction sta
tion. and the bureau has not suffic-
lent funds on hand to permit such
changes to be made.
The reply settles the matter for the
time being but It will be kept in mind
by the local boosters and in the future
the Chamber of Commerce will make
another attempt
With Grand functions station in
the first rank we would get the same
service accorded Denver by its sta
tion. Grand Junction would receive

cal stuff. is that which is dictated by

says that municipal ownership under
all and any circumstances is correct.
The other kind or Republicanism ia
that which is nationally recognized
that, municipal ownership has not yet
been proven entirely correct. The
kind in use in this city and county
is just what is best suited to the priv

ing up first the district court clerk at

BRYAN IN JANUARY.

1t was announced last night at
the Congregational church that Hon.
William Jennings Bryan, one of the
star attractions of the lecture course
viii probably he heard here one even
ing in January. Mr.. Becker stat
ed that he had just received word
from the lyceum bureau that Mr..
Bryan could probably fill his engage
ment here during the first month in
the year.
Owing to the fact that there has
been a great demand for extra seats
for the lecture of the great common
er, Rev. Becker stated last night that
1t had been suggested that the Bryan
lecture be given at the auditorium
instead of at the church as the seat
ing capacity of the Auditorium is
greater. However. he declared. it
was to be left entirley to the ticket
holders as to whether the change
was made. 1t was put to vote and
by an overwhelming majority it was
decided to hold the lecture in the
Auditorium.
Perhaps the largest crowd that
ever heard a lecturer in this city will
greet the distinguished Nebraskan
on his visit to Grand Junction.

GETTING NEW MEMBERS.

This week the Chamber of Com
merce is making special efforts to Sc
cure additions to its membership. A
committee composed of Edwin Price,
J. c. Plank and Secretary Aupperle
was out calling upon the business
men yesterday and as result 21 new
names were added to the membership
roll. The committee is at work again
today.
Every Grand Junction business
man and every enterprising fruit
grower and ranchman should be a
member of the Chamber of Com
merce.. The larger the membership
the more able will the organization
be to do work for the good of the
city and valley. The larger the mem
bership, the larger the income, There
fore the more extensive the possibil-
tiles for advertising and boosting.
In many cities a large percentage
of the membership of the Chambers
of Commerce is ranchmen and farm
ers. this should be the case here
Every ranchman is urged to join. 1t
is not purely city organization. One
of the leading speakers at the annual
banquet will be President Ayleswortn
of the state agricultural college. His
address will be of special interest to
the ranchmen.
If the committee should overlook
some business man who "is out of the
fold" he should not feel sighted and
it will be no bar from membership.
All are welcome to join and should
volunteer their membership.
The Grand Junction Chamber of
Commerce should have at least 800
members, 1t now has less than $50.
Help swell the number. The value
of this organization to the city and
county cannot be estimated.
