RICH SILVER ORE FOUND
IN 4 SHALLOW
SHAFT
(From Saturdays Daily.)

Information reached Or. j. u. Nc.

Of the Western Queen Mines company,
yesterday from Mike Ryan, superin.
tendent Of his mines in the Turkey
creek section, that vein of ore one
loot ~ thickness was struck In a IS
foot shaft on ledge that traverscs a
hogback about 700 feet south of the
nose of Holmes Butte.
From n sample of the new find sent
to this city which the doctor had test
ed in local assay office, returns were
had to the value of $lOs.05. The sill.
yer values predominatcd, netting
sli2.75 at the present price of the
white metal, with further showing
OF over ee per cent in lead and lit.
tie less than per cent in copper.
While the management expected to
find ore In the shaft, a strike Of this
value was entirely unexpected, as very
little, II any development OF this par.
'ieular vein had previously been done.
Only about week ago large body Of
ore was uncovered In another shaft on
the group, one foot Of which sampled

KEEP UP THE FIGHT.
EngIe Company Gets Garbage Con-
tract-Nosv a Lawsuit.

Though the council committee on
health and sanitation reported in favor
of the Engle Crematory company of
Des Moines awarding them the con-
tract for disposing of the city's gar
bage over the heads of the Topeka
Desiccating company and Hill & Son,
the attorney for the Topeka Desiccat-
ing company, J. Y. Abrahams. an
nounces that his company will fight
for the retention of the contract which
they now hold and claims that it will
take an action of the courts before the
contract viii be surrendered,
We claim that the contract can not
be annulled even by an ordinance
passed by the city council; 1t viii have
to take a decision of the court to show
that we violated the terms Of our con-
tract before we propose to give up, !"
said Mr.. Abra hams, In a manner which
indicated that he was not pleased with
the report OF the council committee.
Anyway Councilman Griley will hand
in a minority report and there viii be
other councilmen, I think, who will side
in with him, that no contract should
be made where the site of the plant Is
not given in the contract"
The Topeka Desiccating company
claims that no exclusive contract can
be given by the council and that this in
itself suff1ces for sufficient protection
for their alleged rights. The contract
with the Engle company recommended
for passage last evening calls for g.
tenure Of fifteen years. the right to
purchase the plant by the city after a
term of five years and the location Of
the plant under the supervision of the
city board of health. The charges for
removal and disposal of garbage and
night soil are the same as those now in
force. The removal OF the garbage
and manure from the police patrol
and fire station stables will be made
free of charge to the city. This last
provision Is one of the things which
acted in favor of accepting the PROPOSE
ton from the Engle company.
The remaining two bidders all asked
remuneration from the city for han
ding this refuse. The Topeka Desic-
eating company. whose present con-
tract calls for s25 a month for this
service asked $40 under the submit
ted bid, while Hill & Son asked $50.
The latter company simply intended to
bury the garbage and night soil in the
sand at q location which they expect
ed to lease east of the city. The To-
peka Destccating company, which has
sold its plant on the river banks to
the Santa Fe, procured a new site east
of Oakland and intended to bury the
garbage until they could erect a new
plant The Eng1e company will have
to do the same until It can erect its
plant Ten thousand dollars IS what
the FngIe company expects to invest
here IN their plant. The Engle meth
cd of disposing of nightsou is 10 mix
