Robert Grcenlaw Dead.

Robert Greenlaw, a man known to
nearly all the old residents Of South
western Idaho, Southeastern Oregon
and Northern Nevada, where he has
travelled, following his trade Of painter
and paper hanger for a third of cen
tury at least, died at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. G. D. Bachelor, at DeLamar,
yesterday morning. Mr.. Greenlaw had
been ailing nearly the entire winter,
with bladder and kidney troubles, and
in January went to Boise for treatment.
Failing to get relief, he came to De-
Lamar, destitute, and was taken in and
cared for at the Bachelor home until
the end came.
Deceased was born in Maine, in 1888,
brought up in Boston, no one seeming
" able to tell when he came west, but
persons now living here say that they
knew him more than 80 years ago. Ap-
parently in all those years he has never
had place he could call his permanent
home, but went from place to place,
wherever he could find employment at
his calling, making rounds over a pre-
scribed territory within radius Of
possibly 200 miles. He had a most
retentive memory and seemingly knew
all the people within this range and had
a large fund Of information regarding
people whom be had met. He was tenn
perate and frugal in his habits, clean
and tidy as to his person, but never was
able to make much better than fair
living. He is gone now, let US hope, to
where be may find a place he can call
home.

granting licenses etc. In the latter
line they did more than usual, the sa-
loon proprietors all being anxious to
have their licenses renewed before the
new law goes into effect, all came up
promptly with their money to escape
paying the higher license which it inn
poses.
The stage company and freighters be-
gan cutting the snowbank out OF the
roads between here and the New York
summit yesterday, and today the stage
went out of here and as far as the sum
NIT on wheels, but had to transfer to
runners for about mile, and then to
wheels again. The road the balance of
the way to Murphy is getting fairly fine.
The road across the summit will be cut
out in day or two more so as to make
the entire distance on wheels The
weather is fine today, and it will soon
be possible to get supplies up to all the
mines on the mountains.
A miner named George Clark was ar
rested here last Saturday, for having
given two orders on the Trade Dollar
Con. M. Co., for his March pay check
Il appears that he obtained some goods
from Tom Bradshaw; keeping a store at
Black Jack giving him an order for his
pay, and then later, did the same thing
at the Biz Store here and the latter
people caused him to be arrested for
obtaining goods under false pretenses.
When the matter came up before the
Probate court on Monday, the defend
ant claimed that be thought when he
gave the last order it was for bis April
pay, and he fixed the matter up so that
the complaint was Withdrawn and the
accused man was released. The miners
should remember that this is rather a
ticklish business for them to attempt.

A pleasant surprise was enjoyed when

and treated to fine spread.
The room had been darkened for the
occasion and the fancy light added to
the glitter OF the china, silver and cut
glass.

ing out the candle on the birthday cake.
May little Agnes live to see many such
happy occasions.

A visit to DeLamar this week found
the manager Of the company, the mine
and mill superintendents and business
men all in cheerful mood over the
outlook of the camp. The mill is doing
fine work, making very satisfactory
savings and getting through more ore
than heretofore, all hough not yet equip
ped with the additional filter tank to
take care of all the shines. The tank
has long been ordered but not yet ar
rived. Awaiting 1t, they are running
on higher grade ore and not putting as
much through as they otherwise would.
One hundred and ten men are now en-
ployed in the mine and more being put
on as they apply, large number OF
them being kept at development work.
The company is figuring on the cost
Of equipping the mill with power from
Swan Falls, TO do away with the heavy
fuel bills.
The road from the railway station is
still in an almost impossible condition
and very small amounts Of supplies
coming in over it.

PoTosI.

During the past week surface water
has caused considerable trouble, caus-
ing the suspension of development work
on No. level for two days, but by
fuming all the water possible over the
old Slopes under the adit tunnel, work
in the mine is now continued.
The first OF this week the No. drift
south of Potosi shaft developed a very
fine body OF shipping ore in which free
gold can be seen scattered all through.
The ledge at this point is not so large
as before but of much higher grade.
In the No. , drift north of Knicker-
booker shaft a raise is being driven to
open the ore body above this drift.

Owing to the impossibility of getting
timbers delivered at the mine to be

further work has been done on that
drift. 1t is thought that with the pres
