BICLEAD FIELD In NEBRASKA
High-Grads Ore Underlying Hundred
Square Miles,
FALLS CITY PRosPEcToRS SUCCEED
Richardson County Already Talks OF
Abandoning Its Farms to Harvest
the Wealth that Lies
Beneath.

FALLS CITY, Neb., Jan. 20.-(Special.)-
Rich deposits of a high grade lead ore,
underlying a territory of 100 square miles
in Richardson county, are the discovery
of the past few weeks, and IT begins to
look as If Richardson county farms will
ere long be abandoned for the greater
wealth that lies beneath them
A couple OF months ago three or four
local men associated themselves with l.
n. Laurance of Deadwood. S. D.. to pros
pect and drill in the hills lying east of
Falls City and see If the surface indica-
tions of mineral deposits were supported
by what they could find. They leased 800
acres of land about three miles east of
town and started to work. The first pros
pect they put down was wet and they
were forced by the water to abandon it.
They moved a little south and farther
down the hill and put down a prospect
hole there and at the depth of 100 feet
they struck a six-foot vein of lead ore that
is fine as any ore produced by the Jop-
lin district
They have sunk number of holes. and
every one shows pay ore in big bodies.
The territory that this opens up is a
monstrous big one, for the strip is about
four miles wide and extends from the Kan
sas line north about twenty-five miles This
is almost all proven territory and 1t is not
known how much larger the mineral body
is. The company that has developed the
field SO far is at work now preparing to
work the properties, and Falls City expects
soon to be an ore shipping point of no
small size. 1t is quite a surprise to the
people of Falls City and Richardson county
to discover that there is something here be-
sides what grows on top of the ground.
and If the body of ore discovered is large
enough Richardson county will stop farm
ing and go to mining.

PROTEST AGAINST BURKETT BILL
Mass Meeting mt Hastings Objects 10
Proposed Federal District.

HASTINGS, Neb., Jan. 2O.-(Speeial Tele-
grsm.)-A mass meeting of citizens called
by the chairmen OF the republican, demo-
cratic and populist county committees was
held at the court house this afternoon TO
protest against the passage Of Senator
Burkett's bill for the creation of a South
Platte federal district. Bert Mott pre-
sided and A. c. Albright was secretary.
Besides residents OF Hastings and Adams
county, representatives were present from
Hall, Thayer and Hamilton counties
Resolutions were unanimously adopted
declaring unequivocally against the Bur-
kett bill, and Senator Willard and Repre-
sentatives Norris. Kinkaid, Mccarthy.
Hinshaw and Kennedy are requested to
do their utmost to prevent its passage.
This action was taken on the ground
that as one-half OF the litigation in the
federal court OF the Nebraska district
originates west OF the third guide meridian
Il would be unfair TO divide the state so
that the principal location OF both courts
would be east OF that line. The resolu-
tions also set forth that according to the
terms OF the Burkett bill one district to
the state would be 800 miles long and only
seventy miles wide and the other over 400
miles long and only 10 miles wide

Charcoal sweetens the breath after snnok-

Charcoal effectually clears and improves

NoRTH-soUrH LINE TO MISS OMAHA
BurlingtOn-Great Northern Surveyors
Seek Route south from Ashland.

BurIinRton-Great Northern Surveyors
Seek Route south from Ashland.
ASHLAND, Neb.. Jan. 9O.-(Special,)-The
presence of party of surveyors between
Ashland and Wabash lends color to the
report that the Great Northern is seek
ing a main south line from this city to
Nebraska City. where connections will
be made with the Burlington for Kansas
City and st. Louis. 1t is understood how
ever, that for the present, through north
and south trains will be run from st.
Paul and Sioux City over the old main
line from Ashland to Pacific Junction and
thence down the east side of the Missouri
river.
The long Y connecting the Great North
ern line with this Burlington main line
practically afforded from Sioux City TO
Kansas City. Local freight is already
being accepted to and from towns between
Ashland and Fremont and regular
freight service has been established.
The report in regard TO an extension
from Ashland TO Nebraska City recalls
the fact that numerous surveys OF such a
line have been made in years past The
Missouri Pacific after building its line from
Nebraska City to Lincoln ran a survey
from the town of Wabash to Ashland and
thence up the Wahoo creek through Saun-
ders county to Schuyler on the Union Pa
cihc. The Burlington forestalled any such
move on the part Of the Missouri Pacific
by suddenly building it's present Ashland
Schuyler branch. The Burlington at the
same time ran a survey from Ashland up
the Callahan creek, which leads across the
divide between Salt creek and Weeping
Water to Wabash and then down the
Weeping Water creek to Nebraska City.
The route is an easy one 1t passes
through the best agricultural country in
Nebraska now served by the Rock Island
and the Missouri Pacific and would offer
an easy and feasible line should the Great
Northern ever decide 10 extend it's own
line southwark from this point.
