Warner Moody Killed.

Warner Moody, town attorney Of the
new town of Shoshoni, Wyoming, was
shot from ambush and killed about mid
night on the night of July Goth. He
was son of the late Judge Gideon C.
Moody of Deadwood. A homeseeker by
the name of Frank Anderson was also
shot in the shoulder while endeavoring
to apprehend the sayers of Moody.
Several gamblers recently deported from
the place for operating sure-thing games,
are suspected.
Moody and his wife had attended a
social dance at the home of neighbor,
and in response to a call that there was
some one at his house who wished to
see him, Moody excused himself and
started home. 1t was necessary that he
cross lot which is covered with brush
and shrubbery. When almost in front
of his gate a shot rang out, and he fell in
his tracks, but rose again and staggered
to the gate. Seeing that there was still
life in their mark, one of the party re-
turned and sent second bullet through
his heart. Anderson, who had been
camping in a tent nearby was the only
witness and he Immediately started in
pursuit 1t was so dark. however, that
he could hardly see the fleeing man, and
he did not attempt to shoot, hoping to
trail the assassins until he could sum
mon aid. In crossing an open space in
the densely covered prairie, one of the
fugitives fired and Anderson fell with
bullet in his shoulder not seriously
wounded
Mr.. Moody leaves to mourn his un-
timely DEATH wife, mother. and a
sister, Mrs. d. X. Dickinson, who are

Mining items.

gold nugget weighing 335 ounces has
recently been discovered at Tarnagrella,
in Victoria.
The director ofthe United States mint,
Washington, ID. c., predicts that the
worlds production of gold will average
not less than $4OO,000,OOO per year for
the next twenty years.
The party of stockholders in the Sagi-
nav Gold Mining company, who have
been spending several days here and at
the mine looking over the property,
have returned to their eastern homes,
well pleased with the progress so far
made. We understand that the com
pany is planning to erect mill in the
near future.
MINING ACTIVITY IN ROCKFORD DISTRICT.
From all reports Rockford and the vi
cinity is experiencing something in the
nature of a real mining boom. Never
been more activity than at present and
there are greater number of miners
than ever before. The citizens of Roch.
ford are feeling very jubilaut over the
outlook and are looking forward to the
future with great deal of confidence
The Montezuma property under the
direction of the company's superintend-
ent Mr.. Bert Radcliffe, has about twenty
men constantly employed and has an
covered several large bodies of ore dur
ing the last few days, but there is very
little being said about it. A small but
complete five stamp mill has just been
erected on the company's property, and
is now in operation, sampling the ore
from the different workings. The man
agement is making no attempt to pro-
duce ore but is making thorough test
of all the ores in the workings upon the
results of which will be based their
plans for the future.
Work is being pushed at the Golden
West, about ten men being employed.
The six foot Monadnock mill is busy

taken from the open cuts on the proper
ty and the management is very well sat
isfied with the showing so far.
James Cochrane who has number Of
good claims in the vicinity of Rockford
is working steadily on his ground. He
has recently secured some very rich ore
and the FIVE foot Huntington mill on the
property will be ready to begin work on
it in few days.
On the Standby property, one of the
oldest mines in the Hills a force of
twelve men are busy working, blocking
out ore The putting in of the new bat
terry blocks on the Standby's forty stamp
mill is completed and it is expected that
the stamps will be dropping in about
thirty days. There is enough ore of
good quality already blocked out to run
the mill for long time.

Of Vast Importance.

The filter press upon which c. w
Merrill has secured patents is, we be-
lieve, destined to work great changes in
the application of the cyanide process
1t will be adapted to the treatment of
slime of all grades and constituents, and
since Mr.. Merrill has 30 thoroughly dem
onstrated the ada aptability, cheapness
and high efficiency of the process, it
would not be surprising to see the ordi-
nary cyanide mill practice altered to one
IN which the whole product would be
reduced to slime to be treated by this
process The wonderful difference in
the time consumed in making the ex-
traction on given amount OF ore is so
notable that it alone will be an import.
ant factor. The process as outlined by
Mr. Merrill contemplates the total length
of time in handling given charge, from
loading to sluicing, at nine hours. Com
pare this to the ordinary teaching pre-
cess of five to ten days and the saving
becomes Immediately apparent.
The Homestake company is installing
this process in its Deadwood plant at a
cost Of nearly half million dollars, and
will find its treasury nearly if not quite
reimbursed at the end of a twelve
months run. And this money is com
ing from a product that at the present
moment is absolutely wasted-which
gives the process still another interest
ing phase. The slime to be treated at
this plant varies in value from fifty
cents to a dollar ton, the lower figure
representing, roughly the value of the
Mineral Point slime, and the higher fig
ure that of the Lead City mills. With
the plant running the total extraction of
the Homestake ore will be raised from
the present standard of SO per cent to
the nearly ideal figure of 95 per cent.
After summing up all these consider
ations We cannot but believe that the
Merrill filter press is an invention which
will prove to be of vast importance to
the mining industry. We compliment
Mr.. Merrill upon the successful perfec
tion Of this machine. Black Hills Min
ing Review.

New Forrest Reserve ReVulat,ons.

Mr.. j. f. Smith, forest supervisor, has
Just returned from the south end of the
reserve where he has been giving his
attention to the timber cutting, south
west of Pringle. Over l30 thousand feet
have already been cut most of which
will find market in Hot Springs and
the vicinity.
One of the regulations of the depart
ment concerning reserves has been con-
siderable modified by recent order.
Formerly no saw mill could be erected
within the reserve without permit
from the forest reserve officers. This
was found to work somewhat of a hard
ship upon people owning patented claims
upon which there was considerable
standing timber Hereafter the owners
of patented land can erect mill without
securing a permit.

The Arizona Rangers.

Report has it that the Rangers. the Territorial police force. Is to be sub- iected to scrutiny as regards it's use fulness and the desira ability of it's con tinuance. by the Arizona CattIemen's Association upon the occasion of the annual meeting of that body.
 Since the cattlemen were largely in- strumental in the establishment of the Ranger company, it is assumed that their interest is a friendly one and that their scrutiny will not be tinged with prejudice. As an instrument for the enforcement of law and order it would seem that the Rangers have proven quite efficient. The crime of train robbery has been unknown since their establishment. In sections which are ordinarily too far removed from the county seats to be watched over closely by the sheriffs of the diff ferent counties. the mobile Ranger force has proved valuable agent, as also in the pursuit of criminals fleeing from one county to another. AS to the measure of their worth in ridding the country of cattle and horse thieves and other pests of the ranges, the cattlemen themselves can best speak.
 It may be that the force could be bettered in some ways, but it hardly seems probable that it's abolition would be an act of wisdom. Citizen.

In general get-up the show is modelled something after a musical comedy, with the exception of the time honored first part;" which remains unchanged in form, but glittering new in composition.
 "The troup carries a magnificent bunch of negro voices. and not one weak point in the entire aggregation serves as disappointment. Funny George Taylor kept the crowd convuls- ed with laughter during the entire time he was before the audience His simplest move or gesture was a signal for uproarous laughter from the crowd, and h,s song, "I'll Be Back in a Minute, But Ive Got to Go Now" made the hit of the season, and called for repeated encores
