Death of r. w. James.

! Floyd William James was born on the
James ranch near Arco, November Sth,
1889. He died on the Sth of June, 1907
at the age of II yeats and I months.
This occurred at Manchester, New York,
when in attempting to avoid moving
train, he stepped in the way Of another,
and was instantly killed,
All his life with the exception of a
year that he spent in Blackfoot attend
ing school, has been passed in this i'm
mediate vicinity. Floyd has lived the
life of the average ranch boy, enjoying
to its fullest extent, the privileges OF
this beautiful mountain region, thereby
growing from frail child into ahealthy
robust boy.
His character was strong, influencing
to great extent, those of his age. He
seldom eyer deserted task until it
was completed, and his quiet thought
fulness and love of reading made him
favorite with older people,
He possessed great amount of self
reliance, which carried him out into the
world, confident that he could meet it
and make a success.
Last February, he left home and went
to Blackfoot, where he lived for several
weeks in the home of Prof. Charles
johnson. He then obtained work with
a dairyman near Pocatello, where his
father supposed he was until he received
a telegram that he had been killed a
Manchester, New York.
His remains arrived at Arco the 18th
and was taken charge of by mourning
friends. Funeral services were conduc-
ted the next day by Geo. E. Ferris and
he was laid to rest in the Lost River
Cemetery by the side of his mother,
who passed on in his childhood days.
The beautiful flowers contributed by
friends and school mates were all mute
emblems of the bright life that has
terminated so suddenly.
We mourn for him tenderly that
life SO full of hope should so soon pass
on. But he has only passed on. His
faith in the Divine Love was never lost.
He now knows, certainly, that God is
Truth and Love, and he is loosed from
the earth clouds.
The Star Of Bethlehem still guides
him "Into Truths Eternal Light"

To Commence Operation.

| %The Antelope Mining Company com.
posed of Boise and Pittsburg people
win commence active operations on
their property in Blaine County, early
in July. They expect to make regular
shipments of ore from that time on to
the smelters at Salt Lake City, as they
have several hundred tons of ore ready
for shipment as soon as the roads are
in condition, the late spring and high
waters having DELAYED shipment for a
month or more, The ore is lead car
bonite, carrying good values in silver,
making very desirable smelling pro-
duct
This property was worked years ago
before the Mackay Branch Railroad was
built, and the ore hauled, to Blackfoot
and Haley, distance of ninety miles,
Therefore, nothing but the high grade
ore could be marketed The wagon
haul now to the Mackay Branch will be
about twenty miles, which will enable
the company to market the entire out
put at good profit.
The ore deposits are on a contract be-
tween lime and porphy and have been
developed to depth of eighty feet,
showing a good body Of high grade car
bonite ore. The Company expect a
much higher grade Of ore when the sui
phide zone is reached, as all indications
point to secondary enrichment at the
water level. To prospect this ore body
at greater depth before sinking a new
shaft, they contemplate using a pros
pecting drill as the dip Of the vein and
local conditions are ideal for such work
and much time and money can be!saved
