 Carlotta Nillson, who is starring in "The Three of Us," under the man. agement of Walter N. Lawrence, has inherited farm. This farm is on the outskirts of the town of Black River Falls, Wisconsin, in the vicinity where Miss Nillson passed much of her girlhood. The lawyer who sent the notification of the inheritance to Miss Wilson's attorney stated that the farm consisted of IT acres; and that the buildings included a furnish ed house and large barn. Besides hens and ducks, there are two horses, five cows, two pigs-and prosper ous litter of little pigs. Miss Nillson says that, so far as she can recall the farm, which belonged to an old maid en aunt, it can have little monetary value. However, she played on it as a girl-before she ever dreamed of New York or had the faintest idea of what it means to be a dramatic star and for her the place is rich with a wealth of tender memories. The &C., tress will retain possession until she has chance to see for herself wheth- CT the estate may not be desirable for summer retreat. Unless she can utilize the place she will deed it to her aunt's two old serving people as reward for their faithfulness.

 The Barnum & Bailey circus closed it's season at Dyersburg, Tenn, last night, and five trains of cars were started on their long journey to the winter quarters at Bridgeport, Conn The run home, which will cover l. $50 miles, is via the Illinois Central the Big Four, the New York Central and the New York, New Haven and Hartford roads. It is not expected that the show will reach Bridgeport before Tuesday. As soon as the ani' mals have been transferred to their permanent cages and the cars stored on the sidings the work of refttine the show for the season of 1908 will be begun. Several European features of a sensational character have al ready been engaged. The season just concluded opened at Madison Square Garden in March and the nearly five weeks engagement in New York city was one of the most successful in the career of the show. The road" open Ing was at Reading, Pa., when the show played to two days of phenom enal business. In St Louis, which was also played early in the spring the show followed two other circuses but made a new record for crowd; and enthusiasm. The tour that fol lowed included all the leading citie! of the middle west, northwest, Kan sas. Missouri, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Tennessee. Over 16,000 miles were covered during the season. and apart from one blow down in a Da' kota tornado, the season was almost devoid of serious accident.

BUSTER IS Good
Famous Elk City Mine Has
High Values.
THIRTY MEN ARE EMPLOYED
Story OF Busters Develop
ment- Other Notes.

"While there are many other
very promising and well developed
mining properties in the vicinity
of Elk city, the Buster is the mine
which has been turning out the
greatest quantity of the yellow
metal recently and upon this prop
erty depends, in a large measure,
the future of that rich district"
said William A. Wyllie, who came
out from EM City the last of the
week for a short visit.
"The Buster Mas passed all the
stages, practically, that attend the
making of mine. AS a claim,
then a prospect, then promising
property and finally as paying
mine it has always given forth the
assurance that bonanza was in
the hands of it's owners. The
development of the different por-
tions of the mine has been watched
with interest by mining men from
all parts of the country and it is
probable that the Buster is as well
known as any of the big mines of
the state.
"The work already completed
on the Buster has been performed
in thorough, money saving
manner and the methods employed
in the mines development have
been up. to-date in every detail.
The 300 foot level has been reach
ed, and the plans are to 60 down
until level of 400 feet is obtained.
At the 200 foot level a tunnel
strikes the shaft. A steam hoist
is located at this point, the steam
being furnished by an engine
placed at the mouth of the tunnel.
The ore is hoisted from the 800
foot level, where drift of about
22O feet has been made. Most of
the men employed at the property
are working on the 300 foot level
at present. The-}edge at this point
is from 16 to 20 feet in width and
is showing up better than the own
ers have ever anticipated. The
ore from this ledge assays very
high. A competent assayer, who
has charge of all assays of the ore
from the mine, is employed by the
owners. The machinery used in
the operation of the mine is of the
best make and it is safe to say
that the Buster is one of the best
equipped mines in the northwest.
Everything necessary in the sue
cesful operation Of a mine may be
found in use at this property.
The Buster is at present under
bond to F. w. Bradley, Of San
Francisco.
"Other mines which are giving
forth good results in our district
are the South Fork property,
; managed by f. f. Espey, and the
Providence, near Elk City, where
two shifts are employed at present
Both are quartz mines. The for
) mer will be remembered as the
property which made such an ex
ceptionally rich cleanup last fall
+. A crew of five men is being uset
at the South Fork mine. 1t is re
ported that the Hogan mine al
Orc Grande is to be worked ex
tensively this summer. A 300 foo
shaft is to be sunk Immediately
Mr.. Wyllie is one of the bes
known mining men in the country
: Wherever he is known he is re
cognized as a man of the truth ant
veracity and his statements ar
treated as facts. He will returl
this week to- Elk City.

The Get Together Club,
Grangeville, Idaho.

Grangeville, Idaho.
Gentlemen: The Executive Com
mittee Of the Good Roads League,
Of Elk City, wish to claim your
attention for time of matter
that is Of great Importance to your
organization, to Grangeville and to
all central Idaho, and other towns,
organizations and persons who are
in a position to profit from the
great mining districts in this Sec
ton of the state that have now
about reached the producing stage.
You, no doubt, know that the
last session of the legislature of our
state passed a bill appropriating
$4,000 for the improvement of the
wagon road that leads from the
railroad at Sites to the mining
camps of Newsome, Elk City, Oro-
grande, Buffalo Hump, and Dixie.
Before the money from the state
appropriation is available the min
ing districts, citizens, and Others
must raise by subscription or
otherwise, an equal amount. II
we fail to do this the state will
contribute only as much as these
districts contribute. The Good
Roads League of Elk City, was or.
ganized for the purpose of ''goine
after" the contribution that is nee
esssry to meet the state appropri'
alton, and for the purpose of enlist
ing your aid and assistance in the
M after that this communication il
addressed to you. To date We
have nearly one-half the amount
required-$1OOO of which will
come from the county; $1,000 from
the forest reserve, and the balance
from miners, prospectors and citi
zens of these districts.
1t appears to the committee who
have undertaken to raise the re
quired amount that Grangevillt
and it's business men could wei
afford to make an investment il
the betterment of. the roads tt
these mining districts, because O
the returns the city will reap il
the future. All gateway points
of which your town is one of th'
most to be benefited, will be great,
stimulated by the operating Of the
mines. This is point on whicl
we feel you will need no instruc
tion, as it is a we'll known fac
here and elsewhere that mining
camps quicken business interest
in those towns that are tributar,
to them.
Lack Of proper transportation
facilities has done more to retart
the development of the mines il
central Idaho than has any othe
thing.
Trusting that you will take thi
matter under advisement, give i
the thought and consideration tina
it deserves, and that we may hea
favorably from you in regard to il
we are, yours very truly,
The Good Roads Committee,
Frank Hye, Chairman
