Timber Scarce in LeadviIle.

The timber situation as affecting
our mines at the present time is an
interesting one, and a talk with one
of our leading lumber dealers develops
information not generally known to
the public, says the Leadville Herald
Democrat. The bulk of the mining
timbers used here-dry timber-comes
from outside Lake county-Pitkin,
Eagle and Summit counties. Eagle
and Summit have mills which saw up
the green lumber used here, but min
ing timber for our mines is wholly pre-
pared by the various mills here.
The supply at the present time is
greatly restricted by the condition of
the roads, too hard for safe wagon
hauling in the mountains and no snow
for sleds. There is no reserve on hand
and there is coming in barely enough
to furnish the daily demand. 1t is i'm
possible to increase this until the
roads improve; also there is no supply
obtainable from more distant points,
as railroad charge in excess of 8
cents per 100 weight limits successful
shipment.
Under the strict enforcement of the
laws relating to the use of timber from
government land, it is necessary to buy
otuupdSe, DIS IL is CdlIeu. ln1S Is
done by local lumber dealers necessa-
rily, as those who get out these tim
bers are usually unable to advance the
required capital. When stumpage is
bought government ranger blaZes the
limits within which to work, and after
ward, not stick can be moved until
a ranger has stamped ~. s." upon it
with his little Ratchet. Brush must be
pileu carefully, and, in general, a num-
Der of requirements fulfilled which
were formerly unnecessary.
Dealers have learned to be very eau
tious about buying any timber with
out the government stamp, as their ha-
bility in this connection is equally the
same as that of the chopper who en-
tiers clandestinely upon government
land. OF course the available supply
in all the counties mentioned is con-
tinually moving back from the railway
lines, and the haul grows into gra,er
Importance every year.
A season like the present brings
about a condition which only the grear-
est efforts of all concerned prevents
from being an actual lumber famine
The logs are cut, the money invested
and nothing remains but to await the
SHOWS, which will make good roads
down the mountain gulches to the rail-
roads.

Shicago Assault and Murder.

Chicago.-Mrs. Bessie Hollister,
thirty years of age. the wife of Frank.
lin C. Hollister of the printing firm
of Hollister Bros. one of the largest
concerns of it's kind in the city. was
murdered Friday night by Richard
1vens, twenty-four years of age, who
had attempted to assault her. The
body of Mrs. Hollister was found the
next morning lying on pile of stable
refuse in the rear of the Ivens resi-
dence at 36S Belden avenue. Around
the neck was twisted fine copper
wire and death had been caused by
strangulation. Ivens pretented to find
the body and reported the murder to
the police, but after being arrested,
confessed the crime.

THE FARM AND RANGE

Laying aside her tremendous corn
crops and other notable achievements.
Iowa can lay claim to distinction for
her butter crop alone, which last year
netted more than $25,OOO,OOO. This
takes no account of the millions of
dollars worth which went to grease
the gullet of the sturdy Iowa hus-
bandry. More than 100000 pounds
were sold at an average of 25 cents

Professor Jaffa, nutrition expert at
the California State University, has
announced results of experiments he
is conducting to induce the hen to lay
eggs according to program, instead
of according to her own will Hitherto
the hen has always decided to begin
mounting in the middle of the summer
and has continued the process into
September, October or November,
while eggs climbed to a dizzy height
in the market. Professor Jaffa began
experiments three months ago and the
results justify him in stating that
eventually the hens moulting pro-
cesses will be subject to human con-
troll.
The value of sugar brought into this
country during 1905 will far exceed
that of any earlier year, according to a
bulletin issued by the bureau of statis-
tics of the Department of Commerce
and Labor. The bulletin says: THE
value of sugar imported during the
eleven months of 1905 ending with
November 9Th was S14S,575,345, of
which $51,4S5,256 was from the non
contiguous territory of the United
States. The estimate is that the total
sugar imports for 1905 will aggregate
considerably above $150,0OO,O 900, while
the highest figure in any fiscal year
prior to 1905 was S127,000,00O in 1894,
when an unusually large quantity was
imported in anticipation of a charge
in the tariff"
In connection with state meeting
of the Colorado State Grange, which is
to be held in Denver next November,
there will be held an agricultural and
horticultural exhibit. This announce
ment was yesterday made by ]. A.
Newcomb, master of the Colorado
State Grange. Mr.. Newcomb is enthu-
siastic over the plans of the exhibit
of Colorado products, and is of the
opinion that much good will result
therefrom. 1t is his idea to offer, if
possible, an extensive and liberal pre-
MUM list for the best specimens
exhibited. He believes that if the lat
ter is given wide publicity, and the ma
jority of the farmers of the state be-
cone interested, the exhibit can be
made a record breaking one and
special crops will be raised by the
farmers. The result of these special
endeavors will be generally good, it
is believed, in the agricultural districts
throughout the state.-Denver Repub
lican.

leaddville Manuanese.

General George w. Cook was in the
city for the past three days and fully
occupied his time looking over the
Leadville field as a supply point of
manganese ores for the Illinois Steel
works of the United States Steel Com
pany, says the Leadville HeraldDemo-
crat. He is much pleased with the con-
ditions he finds here, and expects to
have no difficulty in getting the $4,000
long tons of twenty-five per cent. and
upwards, manganese which he be
lieves his principals will take from
Leadville in 1906.
Under the free trade principle APP
piled to manganese few years ago."
said General Cook, the American sup
ply has come almost wholly from
Cuba, Chill. Brazil and Odessa,
where the Caucasus output reaches
tidewater. 1t is probable that the
danger of this last source being
cut off has something to do with
renewed inquiry for Leadville ores.
The Caucasus manganese is very fine,
running from forty-six to fifty-three
per cent. and but three to four per
cent. iron.
What the steel people want is the
manganese - they get iron very
cheaply from the Mesabic and other
northwestern iron mining ranges. The
railways have made favorable rates to
induce tonnage from Colorado to the
East-something they are anxious to
encourage. / am buying +. o. b. Lead

General Cook expressed his wonder
at the extensive work done on the
Penrose TO drain the downtown coun-
try. After all. when a tonnage is to
be had. buyers must come to Leadville.
The drainage now successfully ac-
complished offers such opportunities
for dry mining on all sides as should
lead to a tremendous period of devel-
opment in this district.

Gold OUTPUT Of Alaska.

The gold mines on the American side
of the line in the far Northwest are
this year for the first time producing
much larger quantities of the precious
metal than are being found in British
territory, says the Tacoma Ledger. The
yield for 1905 at Nome and In the sur
rounding district Is estimated by ex-
perts at approximately $4,000, 900 and
the Tanana valley has cleaned up 81,
100000. Last year the total gold pro-
duction for all Alaska was $9.050, 900.
or nearly $l,000,000 less than this
years cleanup at Nome alone. where
the principal increase took place dur
ing the last summer. II Is safe to as.
sumo that the entire Alaskan gold out
put will not be far short of $20. .000, 900.
On the other hand. the Klondike out
put for 1904, which was $i0.S29 900.
will not be much exceeded by its total

patch, deriving revenue of from &c..
900 to $4,000 n day as the result OF a
rich strike OF gold ore in his claims
across the Missouri river from Helena.
In the early days York was one of the
more noted placer camps of the state
and yielded many million dollars. In
more recent years numerous persons
have spent considerable sums in try
ing to locate the lode from which the
placer gold originally came.
Robertson Is working thirty men and
these for the past six weeks have pro-
