A Caddy's Joke.

james Anderson. of the Scottish
American Golf club, smiled at a poor
player on the Van Courtlandt Park
links in New York.
HE reminds me of chap I used to
know" said Mr.. Anderson. This chap
played 80 badly that even his caddies
made a butt of him. He got a ball
badly bunkered one day, and. do what
he would. he couldn't get 1t out again.
Whack, whack, whack, he went, miss
ing it every time. After half an hours
work he wiped his wet face with his
handkerchief. and turned despairing-
ly TO the caddy.
Hang it, he said. I have tried
all my clubs on this COMPOUNDED ball.
What on earth am 1 to do now?'
The caddy laughed harshly.

An Everyday Word.

"The things some people do not
know are astonishing" observed the
pedant. ITO every man you meet the
word penknife is familiar, yet plenty
of them would give it up if you asked
them how the name originated. The
odd part is that they never stop to
wonder. OF course. readers know that
not SO long ago, before steel pens were
in general use, the clerks instrument
was quill. Sharpening one end of
this was all that was necessary to
make a pen, and every man was his
own penmaker and small knives were
kept for this purpose. Yes, of course,
you knew all this before, but there
are a good many folks who do not"

makes the mightiest efforts of a man

ALL MINING UTAH
NOW IS OPTIMISTIC
Great Deals Recently FOrmu-
lated Leave Good Taste iE
Mouths of All.
EYES OF THE LOCAL
CIRCLES ON PARK CITY
Famous District Has Discovered
Secret of Never Growing
Into Uselessness.

II is the consensus or opinion IN local
circles that never before IN the his
torv of mining in Utah have conditions
been more propitious for splendid re-
suits, and never before have the re-
Intions between various interests for
some time antagonistic been so
friendly and full of promise for good.
The COMPROMISE whereby the Silver
King company and the James Nc
Gregor interests have merged their en-
deavors has placed a decidedly good
taste in the mouths Of all Utah. and
the entire State looks TO the Silver
King amalgamation to assist in main
tanning the dignity of the State az
producer of precious minerals.
Nothing in addition 10 what has been
published in these columns has been
allowed TO penetrate beyond the inner
circles of the Silver King and asso-
eiated interests regarding the future
plans of tins great organization, but
1t is understood that the scope of these
than Is anticipated by those who have
endeavored 10 keep in close touch with
the situation. 1t is thought in local
circles that the present visit of Senator
Kearns and David Keith to the East
has an important bearing upon the
situation, and that some magnlncent
developments for Park City and Utah
in general will result from what is ac-
complished by them while away.
Never has the present outlook for
Park City been so roseate hucd. The
old camp has assumed such an i'm
portance in the eyes of the world by
the deals of the young year that II
appears so have found the secret of
perpetual youth. The Silver King con
solidation, which promises TO be one of
the greatest mining deals for the State,
and the deal whereby the DAILY West
interests have secured the control of
the Ontario and DAILY mines, both are
pregnant with significance, showing
that this great district Of Utah is to
be the scene OF some gigantic undertak-
ings in this and in future years, and
that many more millions of dollars now
locked up In natures vaults soon will
be pouring into the laps of fortunate
stockholders
All Utah Is optimistic, and with good
reason, for her mining household is en-
Ioying unprecedented health and happi-
ness.

Had the ore Just encountered upon

who looked over tine new Cedar strike
and secured several samples Of ore be-
fore leaving Beaver county for Salt
Lake.
The ore is fairly impregnated with
gold, closely resembling the richest
rock that has been seen in tins city
from such rich camps as the Seven
Troughs section of Humboldt county.
While the Cedar Mining company dur
ing the past few weeks has been ex-
tracing ores that contained gold In
liberal quantities, some assays giving
S37 gold TO the ton, no free gold ore
has been found in the property mp to
the present time. and the officials were
greatly aston,shed and delighted on
Saturday when Mr.. Donahue handed
them the samples from the mine.
II is a matter Of general appreciation
in local circles that the Cedar ores are
extremely rich in silver and lead, many
samples resting in local cabinets, and
it was while exploring this splendid
lead-silver vein that the find of tho
free gold ore WAS made, The manage
ment had penetrated the hanging wall
when it ran into one and a half feet
of this new gold ore. No assays have
been made from this new vein up to the
l,,,% hn
in handling Nevada ores, several local
assayers have expressed the opinion
that the rock will average many thou
sands of dollars ton.
The Cedar company closed the past
season as the feature of that portion
of Beaver county within which IL is
located, and it opens the new year with
this discovery which compels an en-
tirely new opinion regarding the ores
Of the neighborhood. Beaver county
may have the basis for a gold camp OF
two which will rival many of those
now famous in Nevada, having the ad
ditlonal advantage of lead, silver and
copper contents as well in all of its
ores. Mr.. Donahue stated Saturday,
while talking about the interesting
character of this Cedar discovery, that
several adjoining properties will IN
doubtedly secure this vein, and among
them he mentioned the Talisman. with
which he is prominently connected. The
Cedar Extension company, also, an or
ganization perfected in this city dur
ing the last month of the last year,
having the extension of the Cedar
veins, will come in for liberal portion
of this new resource.
The ore was on exhibition yesterday
in the Office of Fl, Barnett, the secre-
tary and treasurer Of the Cedar com
pany, and it was viewed by scores of
eral Utah.
