Richmond gardeners and dollhouse

Of all the seeds that would be
scarce during the coming season
corn will lead. This is caused by the
unsuccessful maturing last year, max

Greencastle, Ind, jan. 6--CIeaver
Runyan, Is years old, is accused of
attempting to wreck a Vandalia pas
senger train at Fillmore, and he has
been committed to Jail in this city.
Runyan, it is said, has been reader
of cheap detective stories, and has
gone about heavily armed. 1t is alleg-
ed that he wanted to emulate the
deeds of train robber, and so he drag
ged a pair of heavy skids of the sta
ton platform and adjusted them on
the rails with the intention OF throw
ing a freight train off the track, but an
unexpected passenger train was first
in sight. The operator in the block
tower saw the youth working about
the rails, and he investigated, with
the result that he was barely able to
remove the obstruction in time for the
train to pass.

SETS CHARTER REVISION
MACHINERY IN MOTION
COUNCIL TO SEND CONFERENCE
INVITATIONS TODAY
Estimates on Cost of De los Pesos
Bridge viii Be Made Public.
Finances Likely to Cause
Debate

Formal invitations will be extended to-
day by the city council to representatives
of business and civic organizations TO
attend a conference preliminary to a
charter revision movement. The council
will fix the date for a meeting at which
a general line of action will be mapped
out looking to the selection of charter
commission.
CounciImen are not all agreed on how
and where the charter needs patching,
but they propose to get the best men Tor
the work, they say, and in the meantime
want all the information and suggestions
that can be had.
Because of possible complications, no
invitations will be extended to the minis
terial or church organizations as such,
though later distinguished churchmen
and laymen will be asked to become
members of the commission if the COM
mittees so report.
The council and chamber of commerce
will send three delegates each and the
other bodies one or two, according to
membership.
Mayor Harper will send message to
the council on the subject, and the con-
ference probably late this week will
formally set the machinery of revision
working. 1t may be a year or two before
the final report is put before the electors.
Push Death Dip Bridge
The board of public works will prob
ably send in an estimate today of the
cost of the proposed bridge over De los
Pesos creek-the timber highway at
Death dip. Because of the many acci-
dents at that point the bridge will be
built at different angle, and the car
tracks will be moved Sufficient addi-
tional property will be used for ap-
proaches to make this possible. The city
will pay more than half of the cost and
the trolley company the remainder. The
city's share will probably be $4,000.
This will be the first of the series Of
bridges to be built out of the city's
funds without a bond issue during this
and next year.
Some discussion will probably take
place in the council on the finances of the
city. The budget will possibly be report
ed in part by the finance committee. The
outfall sewer necessities will be recited,
and the holding up of demands by the
city treasurer will also be considered.
Meanwhile city employees are not wor-
ried about their pay, as the banks have
agreed to advance the funds at per
cent during the next three months.

Boise, Idaho, declared that no honest
American could have brought many 9TH
er verdict
Mr.. Gompers said:
"It was inconceivable that an honest
American jury would have brought any
other verdict than was rendered by the
Boise jury acqultting William ID. HAY
wood. That he was innocent of the crime
charged against him, the murder or ex-
Governor Steunenberg, was absolutely
certain from the beginning, when the
charge was brought against him and his
colleagues. Even If Haywood, Meyer and
Pettibone had cause to feel resentment
against Governor Steunenberg during MS
administration, at the time of his being
killed, and for almost two years before,
he was in no way in a position to inter-
fere with the work of the Western Fed
el alton of Miners. He was removed from
the field of opposition to the miners or
ganization.
1.-The organization as a matter of neces-
sity was compelled to deal with new con-
ditons, with new men and with new ex-
ponents, and could not have the time,
much less the inclination or motive to
wreak murderous revenge upon one who
was no longer in their path There was
no motive and no purpose for Haywood
to kill or conspire to have killed Governor
Steunenberg.
"The Idaho jury and all the American
people are to be gratulated upon ac-
quittal of Haywood The testimony of
Orchard confessing that he was a mani
fold murderer. that he was a bigamist,
burglar, incendiary thief, liar and fraud,
was enough to sicken the hearts of all of
our people. Upon such testimony 1t was
unthinkable a jury of honest American
citizens would hang even yellow dog"

GOLDFIELD, New, July 2S.-News of
the acquittal of Haywood at Boise was
received in this city with great demon
stration of joy on the part of the mem
bers of the Western Federation OF INN
ers. The streets were crowded with
members of the order within a few min
utes after the news was -bulletined at
the headquarters of the local union, who
cheered the verdict until they were
hoarse.
The miners marched through the
streets, cheering for Haywood and the
other officers of the national union.
The miners finally congreagted in front
of miners headquarters and speeches
were made by local leaders and sympa-
thizers. The American flag played a
prominent part in the demonstration and
was frequently referred to by the speak
ers and vigorously cheered by the miners.

RumOred Strike
At Ida May

It is being currently rumored
that a very large and important
strike has been made at the Ida
May mine at Bristol. A repre-
sentative of this paper, when
hearing the report, tried to get
some confirmation of the same
but those in a position to know
seems to be very reticent con-
cerning the matter. However
we are inclined to give much
credence to the report because
of the fact that this mine has
always been to the front in the
production Of ore. However the
important conditions about this
strike is that it is stated to be
of such a magnitude that no
question remains but that w. A.
Clark, Jr., who holds a bond and
lease on the property will exercise
the same.

Railroad Is
At Panaca

The Railroad has been COM
pleted to Panaca and the forces
are now busy constructing the
siding at that point. This place
will be the shipping point for
Phoebe and surrounding districts
during the summer or until such
time as the road is completed to
Pioche. Many rumors are heard
to the effect that construction
will be stopped for the present
but these are not borne out by
the facts. On the contrary the
intention of the road seem to be
entirely different. They have
telegraphed for more men and
will increase the force, indi-
eating their intention to get
through as quickly as possible.
This seems to be consistent with
good business principals. Phoebe
is the object point. What idea
would they have in getting part
way? None whatever that we
can see. Phoebe is going to have
a Railroad day and that before
the snow flies.

w. S. Anderson
Has Returned
Well Pleased With Property
and Progress Being
Made.

w. S. Anderson, the Phoebe
hustler, came in from Ely the
other day in his touring car, that
is, to be more explicit, he came
part way in the car, and the re-
mainder, well, he came that in
the car, but there happened to
be a team hitched to the front
furnishing the propelling power.
When seen by a representative
of this paper, Mr.. Anderson ex-
pressed himself as being well
pleased with the work and re-
sultant showing on the different
properties in which he is inter-
ested. He was the organizer of
the Columbus-Pioche and the
Georgia-Pioche Mining Compan-
les. Of the latter property, he
speaks in most pronounced terms
and is determined to make a
great producer of it as soon as
possible. For that purpose he
has ample means. DR.. Thomas
N. Baker, who recently visited
the property with Mr.. Anderson,
and who owns large interest
in it, was so pleased with the
showing that he stated before
leaving that he would, if neces-
sary, advance any required sum
of money to fully develop the
property.
The work is going ahead
rapidly under the efficient SUPER
vision of Superintendent Mahedy
and as soon as conditions justify,
an increased force will be put on
at the mine. Mr.. Anderson will
leave in a few days for the
South for the purpose of looking
after the details of the organiz-
alton of some new companies
which he has under way.

More Ore At
Susan Duster
This Mine Looks Better
With Each Days Devel-
Opment.

The magnificent showing at
the Susan Duster mine, belong
ing the 0hio-Kentucky Company
is constantly on the increase.
Commencing at the 100 foot
level and continuing thence to
the three hundred or lower level,
it is one great gigantic ore body
of good values. Drifts have
been run along the lead from
these levels and the ore has been
proven to exist in exceedingly
large bodies, This great show
ing means much for Phoebe,
when we stop to consider that
the strike is made in what may
be termed virgin territory, il
fully subsidiaries the theory that
Phoebe has not been fairly pros.
pected.
At present on the 300 foot
level a winze is being sunk fol
the purpose of determining the
extent of the ore body at that
point, but so far, has not beer
passed and continues of a very
high grade.

ThOmarsOn Ties
Up New Claims
Group of Mines in Quartz
Mountain Secured.

Mrs. Elvira Craw, Frank
Pasina, l. N. Garrison and H.
I. Tranmer have disposed of a
group of claims, situate in
Quartz Mountain, under lease
and bond, to Edward Thomar-
son. The necessary papers
binding the deal were executed
during the week.
The claims bonded consist of
the Quartz Spring lodes, Nos. /
to 8, inclusive. They are situate
seven and a half miles from
Craw's Ranch, and about
twenty-three miles in a north
westerly direction from Phoebe.
The claims are said to have a
very promising showing, that
will justify extensive develop
ment work. Upon Mr.. Thomar-
sons return from the East work
will be inaugurated upon the
property. 1t is the intention tc
incorporate a company to handle
the claims and the preliminary
steps in this direction have beer
taken.
