AMONG THE MINERS

FERGUS COUNTY AND elsewhere. = = =

cry, Golden Rule, Last Hope and Hope
claims, in the North Moccasin district.
The Bear Creek Placer Mining COM
pany. operating near Libby Mont, has
completed it's hydraulic plant and gray
Ell is now going through the company's
sulce boxes. The company is pri-
vate one, with total capital of $1O,-
600. and the chief stockholders are
Spokane business men. The company
also owns the Old Criderman placer,
sixteen miles from libby, on Libby
creek The old Criderman is about
100 acres in area. Last winter the
whole of the company's property was
rrospected. and during the winter all
the machinery and lumber for the
tiume and buildings were taken in on
the snow, and some of the buildings
We're completed before the snow was
off the ground. Fifteen men were set
to work constructing a ditch and put
ting in the necessary piping. This
work was completed last week and
water turned into the ditch. The pipes
have all been tested and the work of
sluicing begun.
The quest of gold is not always COM
mendable. Opinions have been eX-
pressed condemning the destruction
of valuable agricultural land, merely
that the gold content might be eX-
tracted, leaving a barren waste of
houlders and pebbles. The other forms
of mining have also come in for a
share of condemnation, given on ac-
count Of a total lack Of consideration
on the part of the miners for any in
terest other than their own. But what
shall be said of the ill-conceived
scheme which proposes to enter and
despoil a cemetery. merely because
in technical sense the ground is
open TO location as mineral land?
Small wonder that the Indignation Of
Butte citizens has fallen forcibly on
the mead of one of its inhabitants
who has planted his stakes in the
city's burial grounds. claiming them
/ as placer locations. The incongruitv
OF location stakes planted among head
stones should not require 100 deli
cate sensibility TO appreciate its APP
peal. None but an inconceivahly
coarse nature would fail TO be struck
with the crudity and lack of harmony
in the idea of disturbing inferred hui
man bodies for the getting of gold Of
uncertain value. Cemeteries are not
nfrequently abandoned or removed in
the interests of sanitation. but the
spectacle of city permitting the des
ecration of its burial place for the
mere satisfaction of a greed for gold
is not likely to be witnessed at this
time. Butte public sentiment will un
doubtedly be of sufficient weight and
volume to effectually smother the am
billions Of it's latest aspirant for wealth

heightened because the Americans use
the same style of rowing as the Eng

Hope is generally expressed that
this visit may result in an annual race

The different ring styles of different
fighters is one of the most interesting
things to the student of the fighting
game. 1t is seldom nowadays thar d
man gets into the ring and clenches
his teeth and goes for his oponen,

he follows by which he hopes to anger
the other fellow and throw him off
his guard
Jim Corbett would laugh and talk
to friends at the ringside. and almost
totally ignore his opponent. Jim made
1t appear as though the fight was of
but secondary importance. The one
exception TO this rule was the time he
fought Fitz at Carson City, and then
the hatred for the Australian was so
strongly inoculated in Jim that he
forgot all about his ring tactics.
