GREAT STRIKE IN
IRRIGATION DITCH
WORkMEN BLASTING FOR CANAL
UNCOVER RICHEST STRIKE
EVER MADE IN WEST.
Five Thousand Dollars Worth OF Gold
Taken From the Debris in Nuggets
Running as Large as Wheat ker-
nels-Much Excitement and Claims
Are Being Staked Out.

Alton, Wyo., July 3.-What is be.
lieved to be the richest strike of gold
ever made in the west is reported from
Thane, near this place. Great excite.
ment prevails and claims are being
staked rapidly. While working in an
irrigation ditch on the Marion Heap
ranch, men struck a cement bed which
1t was found necessary to blast in or.
der that the construction of the canal
might proceed. In clearing away the
dirt after the blast the men picked up
nuggets of gold, some being as large
as wheat kernels and one or two even
larger. Hundreds of nuggets as large
as a pinhead were picked up.
Five Thousand in Blast.
1t is estimated that the one blast
brought forth gold to the amount of
$4,000. The blast exposed a glacier
formation which appears to be literally
studded with precious metals.
The scene of the wonderful discov,
cry is at the base of a low hill, and ii
is the opinion of experts that the en-,
tire hill is filled with the golden metal.
Ranchman Heap and his men are
guarding the ground, for they don't
want their irrigation work interfered
with.

Man Who Pleaded Guilty to Avoid
Being Lynched.

Cheyenne, Wyo., July 3.-Lou Hart,
sough, a prominent resident of Sheri.
dan, convicted at the December, 1902,

enced to twenty years in the peniten-
tiary, has been %pardoned by Governor

AN OLD LADY.
One of the most pleasant o.
my acquaintances was an ole
lady. | was very friendly with
her and one day she asked me tc
come and see her. / called al
her cottage at three o'clock in
the afternoon. | was ushereo
into her sitting room, which was
very neat and clean. AS she sal
in her comfortable rocker, attir.
ed in a mother hubbard dress and
u pair of carpet slippers, she was
q perfect picture of comfort and
happiness. Her hair was silver
grey aud was hanging in two
braids. Her eyes were brown
and sparkling with good humor.
She had a Roman nose and a very
square chin. Her whole face and
hauds were wrinkled and worn
with age. Like most old ladies'
she was fond of tea She had a
great many pets about the house,
a cat, a dog and "A parrot. Be.
sides this she kept some chick
ems in small yard behind the
house. She told me that she was
sixty five years old, and that she
had been living in this same
house for twenty years.
When it was time for me to go,
she said that she would walk
down town with me. She ex
.cused her self and went up stairs
to dress. On returning size was
dressed ia d green skirt, an old
faded waist and a pair of old
fashioned shoes. Her cloak was
OF an old pattern, and her hat
was a small one that rested light
ly on the top Of her head.
! was afraid to walk fast, fear
ing she would be unable to keep
up but soon found out that she
could walk as fast as | could.
She seemed to enjoy being out
doors. When she met acquain.
tences, she would stop them for
a few minutes whether they
wanted to or not. When We re-
turned, she did not seem bit
tired but asked me in cheerful
tone to call again, which | did.

OPELOUSAS A
saw MILL CENTER.
The LImItIess Timber Forests Attracting
The Eye Of Capital.
THREE MILLS ALREADY ASSURED.
Railroad Tracks To Be Run Into SWamps For
Tlmber--Magnlficent Opportunity For
hardwood Factories.

E
A gentleman representing big
Northern corporation of saw mill
owners was in Opelousas this week
looking after the establishment Of a
saw mill here.
The plan is a gigantic one, if we
understand the project right. 1t is
proposed to erect the mill here, and
to have some fifteen or twenty miles
of railroad run into the swanps in the
Port Barre section for the timber.
The gentleman is now in that Sec
tion, looking to the purchasing Of
timber land in township Z, Z east, and
township Z, 6 east, where there are
large tracts of hard wood and cypress.
He is expected to return to Opelousas
the latter part of this week, and we
will endeavor TO learn more OF the
plans.
AS we said above, the corporation
which the gentleman represents op-
crates large saw mills in different
parts of the United States, and the
advantages of this section coming to
their notice, they have concluded to
establish big mill here. They now
have, we understand, several engines
and cars and fifteen miles of rails al
ready their property, which they in
tend to use in this enterprise.
Many more similar concerns are
expected in Opelousas in the near
future. Two large saw mills are al
ready assured, the grounds having
been bought and work is to be started
on them at once. This last will make
the third.
N. B.-We have just been advised
that the proposed saw mill above
is about an assured fact, but the last
information is that the timber will be
hauled on the Colorado Southern to
this place, and that the corporations
fifteen miles railroad will run into the
swamps from point near Port Barre.
The big mill viii be erected in Opel
ousas.
