a company has been organized to
take it over and develop it. The
company is known as the Goose
Lake Copper company. capitalize
ed for $5,0O0,O0O. The stock is
very closely held and none of it
is for sale. The necessary work.
ing capital is to be furnished by
the st. Paul syndicate, and oper-'
atoms are to be commenced at
once. Considering the stringen-
cy of the money market at the
present time, it is rather remark.
able that flotation of this mag
nitude could be made, and it is
not probable that it could have
been made except on account Of
the wonderful showing of ore.
Broad Plans.
Plans for the opening of the
property on a. large scale have
been decided upon, and during
the past week several carloads Of
machinery have been purchased
and forwarded to the mine. Work
will at once be commenced by
sinking a shaft. If it is found,
that the ore continues with depth
and the geological formation con
firms the belief, the ground will
be explored by means of dia-
mond drill at a depth of 100 feet,
to determine the character and
extent of the ore bodies a. a
depth of 500 or 600 feet.
With the ground proved to be
mineralized at the latter depth,
and the water not. coming in in
excessive quantities, latcrr
plant will undoubtedly be in
stalled and the shaft will be car
ried to the 500 or 600 foot level.
However, with the character of
the ground determined, and prov
ing that the ore deposits exist at
depth, a tunnel will be run into
the mountain lower down, giving
a vertical depth of about 1000
feet.
Similar to Butte.
The formation surrounding the
property of the Goose Lake Cop

in character to that e the Butte
district. If the ore which shows

the Box.

Boise, Idaho, June 3.-The work Of
securing a jury in the case of VIM.
D. Haywood, charged with the MUIR
der of former Governor Steunenberg,
will be resumed this morning unless
the prisoner has relapse. Yester-
day Haywood, little drawn and
pale, appeared in normal condition.
He was out early in front of the court
house and walked in the sun, after
ward sitting with members of his
family.
Judge Fremont Wood has stated
that he is determined jury shall
be secured today if possible. Forty
talesmen remain in the venire Of
sixty-one summoned last week. Only
one more peremptory challenge can
be exercised and this lies with the
defense, the prosecution having ex-
hausted it's quota Friday. Should a
jury not be secured within the regu,
lar hours, it is probable that Judge
Wood will hold a night session.
With jury secured before court
adjourns tonight, the case for the
state will be opened by James H.

real engagement, will be lengthy

Der 80, 1905. This opening address
will be the first official outlining Of
the case.
1t is believed that the state has in
reserve much to corroborate Or
chards testimony Orchard will be
a witness, but counsel for the state
does not propose to rely upon his evi.
dence.
Every point bearing on Haywood's
connection with the actual murder
of Steunenberg must, the prosecution
openly states, be corroborated before
they can hope to prove their case
In the work of securing this cor
roboration the Pinkerton detective
agency has figured largely. Capt.
James NJ. MCFARLAND, famous as the
principal figure in many detective
stories of real life, has directed the
work. He believes he has com.

The defense has been as 'busily at
work as the prosecution. Other
scores of detectives have followed
every clue and every intimation what,
ever.
1t is charged that the Mine Own.
ers' association which has fought the
Western Federation of Miners for
many years, is behind the effort to
| discredit the officers of the federation
and further, that defense will be able
to disprove every statement made by
Orchard on the stand and in his con

E. F. Richardson, prominent at
torney of Denver, will open for the
defense, but it is understood that ii
has been agreed that the case for
the defense will not be shown until
after the prosecution is all in.

The two struggled back and forth,

SMALLPOX Close Town.

Jesup.-All public gatherings have
been forbidden here by the board of
health because of smallpox scare.
Quarantines were established on the
Trumbauer, Woodruff, Clark Hart
and Marshal Peak homes Work in
the public school was suspended and
church services were forbidden. 1t
seems that the disease in mild form
has been prevalent here for some time,
but it was believed to be chickenpox
and little was thought of it. The
greatest fear is that the disease has
been spread all over town.

GIRL WITH THROAT CUT.
Found in Pasture Near the Village Of
HAMPTON,


Davenport-Miss Maggie Hermes
of the village of Hampton was found
dead in pasture about a mile and
a half northeast of the village post
office. The throat had been cut, and
razor which was picked up short
distance from where the body lay
bears out the theory of suicide.
The body was discovered on the
Albert Altman place by Henry Fer
man. Every detail seems to support
the theory of suicide, and there seems
to be no evidence of a struggle or
of foul play. The body lay on the
hillside, and fifteen feet farther up
the hill lay the blood-stained razor,
indicating that after she had dealt
herself the death wound the young
woman had slipped or fallen down
hill. Near the body was also found
looking glass, a pencil and pamph-
let. The young woman wore sun
bonnet.
The young woman had disappeared
from home, but no attention was paid
to her absence by the family, as it
was thought she was paying a visit
to friends in the village. There is
no known cause for suicide. Miss
Hermes was the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Josepr Hermes and was 80 years
of age. The family resides on the
edge of Hampton village
A note left by the woman was
found. Among other things it said:

that the statutory provisions do not
make such recalling mandatory, and

Pratt cannot go before a grand jury

before Mayor Ball, this week, and
may then be released on bail, however.
