scares Away Burglar Who Was
 Opening n Window.
 Mrs. Irving K Russell of South Main street, Suffield woke up about Il o'clock Tuesday evening and heard noise of some one trying to pry open the win dow on the front porch. She went to her bedroom window and fired two shots in the air and at the same time called the hired girl and man, Andrew Patterson, who sleeps in the house A man was seen in the rear of the house lat the corner of the barn by MT. Pat terson. Word was telephoned to Con- stable George w. Woodruff and he was soon in search of the burglar.
 Officer Woodruff made vigorous but fruitless search. Mr. Patterson. the hired man, said the burglar was about five feet and a half high, wore dark suit of clothes, dark hair, and did not appear to be intoxicated. This is the first attempt at house breaking in town since the Suffield Savings bank robbery in December, 1904, when the robbers blew open the safe and got away with several hundred thousand dollars worth of securities. MT. Russell is away dur ing the week and home over Sunday his business being in New York.

Edward Nugent, whose home is in Meriden, received very serious injury Tuesday afternoon while riding on the trolley from Cheshire to Milldale. Nu- gent was standing on the running board and was wearing a light hat when the wind lifted it from his head. Forgetting himself he tried to seize the hat with both hands and lost his grip on the handle. The car was going at top speed and Nugent was hurled to the ground striking on his head. The injured man was taken on the car to the waiting station in Mill dale, when Dr. Kelley of Plantsville was called. He was bleeding from the ears and was in great pain. He was finally taken to his home in Meriden, where he will receive good care. It is thought that his skull is fractured.

that he is still interested and has

Mr.. Gresh acquired the claim a

his title by having the ground pat

the ground and the same was fore

Nothing daunted, however, he inn
mediately secured a lease and option

~SEARCHLIGHT Mine
HAS RICH ORE

A ten strike has been made at FL
dorado canyon. The Wall Street vein
has been found on the Black Hawk
claim.
Some say that the ledge within the
connes of the Black Hawk is even
better than the original Wall Street
workings, and all who have been over
the ground agree that 1t is of a size
and richness to at once stamp it as a
bonanza proposition.
Foot by foot, for a distance of $50
feet, the vein was traced onto the
Black Hawk and a shaft sunk to a
depth of SIS feet. From this depth
drifts were u in both directions,
exposing ore running all the way
from $40 to $500 a ton. The exact
width of the vein remains to be de-
termined, but it is known to be at
least 80 feet and TO average better
than 81 for this distance.
The tracing of the Wall street vein
is in itself enough to cause no little
excitement, but in addition there is
the really ne showing already ex-
posed in the Black Hawk workings.
One of the greatest recommendations
the property has had a that of John
O'Neill. Ask any Colorado mining
man about Jack o'Neill and they
will say that he is a mining man OF

WILL OPERATE ON NORTH
BELLE PROPERTY AT

Henry J. Seitz, superintendent OF
the North Belle Gold Mining CON-
pany, came to town on last Monday.
He reports the Grantsville section
as being very active and that a large
number of new companies are work
ing or starting to work In the dis
trict. The work on the North Belle
estate is being carried rapidly for
ward and consists of a shaft on the
Cattail claim, the ledge being 30 feet
wide and outcrops for 1000 feet IN
length, some of the assays from this
ledge running into the pictures. IN
addition to this work the company
is running a tunnel to tap the cele-
brated North Belle ledge and are
now in 10 feet, having about 80
feet to 80 before striking the ledge.
In running this tunnel the company
cut a ledge of gold ore which gives
values of $175 per ton, and also a
ledge of copper and gold, the copper
assays showing 81 per cent in cop
per and sufficient in gold and silver
to make SITS pre-. 1t is confidently
expected by the management that

citizens are now nursing a disap.

that runs about $50 in lead and
about the same amount in silver, nc
particular development being requir.

company only consented to grant
this lease because of the interest thai
would be developed in the company's
