Iron Land Deal at Aitkin.

An Aitkin dispatch of the 9Th
states that town is now the scene of
the last good iron finds, and J. G..
Jacobson, who lives on Rice river,
northeast of town, where drilling
has been going on for several
months, has just closed some pro.
ftable transactions. One forty has
been drilled by Cuyler Adams, and
in the eight holes put down the
iron tests have ranged from 48 to SO
per cent good iron ore. The ex-
plorations were made by Mr.. Adams
on sharing basis and Mr.. Jacob
son has been offered $1,000 for his
interest in the property, his share
not being stated.
A local syndicate composed of
J. J. Mcdonald, c. A. Warner and J.
B. Galarneault have bought 100
acres from Mr.. Jacobson for which,
it is stated, they are to pay $4,000
and give him ne-tenth interest in
the mineral. These men have been
watching the mineral development
of this locality with care, and it is
safe to say that they have sufficient
evidence to warrant such an invest
ment.

more adequate quarters.

BODY COMING TO UTAH.
That of Murdered George Terry Leaves
Lander for Draper Tomorrow.

BY a telegram received today by
Joshua Terry it was learned that the
remains OF his son George viii leave
Lander. Wyo., tomorrow morning, in
charge of Mrs. George Terry, for in
terment in the Draper cemetery The
deceased was murdered by unknown
parties Thursday night last.
The dispatch Is from Mr. Eisenhardt.
superintendent In charge of the Wind
River reservation. who IN another tele-
gram says that the coroner's jury was
unable to fix the guilt OF the murder
upon any one, and asked for sugges-
tons from the dead mans relatives. The
family believes that II knows who is
responsible for the killing, and every
endeavor viii be put forth to appre-
bend and convict the guilty person
or persons.
George Terry was half-breed
Indian, and was man of much in
telligence and possessed of fair ed
ucation. He had resided on the Wind
River reservation for many years and
welded a powerful influence for good
among and in behalf of the red men
OF the section in which he lived. Sew
eral times he had gone to Washington
IN the interests OF the Indians cause,
and his representations to authori-
ties relative 10 the welfare or his
people received recognition because
of the able manner in which he per-
formed his mission.
For some time III luck seems to have
followed the family. on Dec. 10 last,
the eldest daughter. aged t6 years,
died from scarlet fever and the only
remaining child, "A girl OF FIVE, was
barely saved from the grave. Shortly
before the dread disease entered the
household, fire destroyed Mr. Terrys
barn and four horses, harness, and
the winters suply OF provender were
burned. In writing of the occurrence
at the time. the owner said that there
were indications that the deed was of
an incindary nature, but he charitably
Inclined TO the belief that tramps
sleeping in the barn had accidently
set 1t on fire. AS he was engaged in
freighting at the time, the loss was a
most serious one. From the light of
recent developments II would seem
that the hints of incendiarism We're
well founded, and IL was doubtless the
work of the persons who at last COM
mitted foul murder.
