the direction and supervision of the

He has very wide acquaintance
among the old settlers of this section
of the state and has through long
years supplied their tables with
choice meats at reasonable prices.
His honorable business methods and
mis- earnest desire to please has secur-
ed for him very liberal patronage
and he derives therefrom a comfort

nected with mining interests from
the time he located here and is still
the owner of considerable mining

investments in real estate and now
owns number of business blocks and
dwellings in jackson, being account
ed one of the well-to-do citizens of
the place. In 1862, when disastrous
fire swept over the town, his losses
amounted to four thousand dollars,
for he had no insurance upon his

The Fremont Fire.

There is little change to note in
the situation at the Fremont mine
from that stated in these columns
last issue. The Fremont shaft has
been closed up, and steam has been
forced down the shaft for the purpose
of extinguishing the fire. should it
be still smoldering in the heavy tim
hers. 1t is generally thought that
the fire was confined to the 100 foot
level, and immediate vicinity. That
point is the only spot in the shaft
where heavy caving ground was en-
countered in sinking. So that while
considerable debris may have choked
the shaft at this place, it is not sup
posed that the damage is very great.
The Cover shaft Is open, and men
can travel from top to bottom with
out experiencing serious trouble. 1t
is bnlkheaded at certain points to
shut off the draft from the Fremont
opening.
There is no smoke issuing from the
Fremont. For several days there has
been nothing to indicate that the fire
was still burning. From last &C.
counts, it was thought that no effort
would be made to uncover the shaft
tor several days, probably not until
the beginning of next week.
Nothing further has been recalled
concerning the eleven victims of the
disaster. All hope of their suvival
has long since been abandoned.
Even in bulkheading, precautions
we're taken that in case any of the
missing ones should reach the barrier,
they could easily force way through
to safety.

Miss Olive j. Scappuzi, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs A. Scappuzi, died at
the home of her parents in this city
on Sunday afternoon, at the age of 16
years, months and II days. The
immediate cause of death was an
attack of pneumonia. She had, how
ever, been in poor health for years,
suffering from vaivular trouble of the
heart; and this organic ailment was
no doubt responsible fol- her early
demise. She leaves besides her aged
parents several brothers and sisters
to mourn her departure. The funeral
took place Wednesday, services in
the Catholic church, and interment
in the local cemetery of that de-
