MUST NOT TREAT
INSANE AS FELONS
Governor Orders Warden. to. Put
Criminal Insane i'm the
Prison HOsrit

OLYMPIA, June 19.-If the Grim
inal insane at Walla Walla are
placed in convict stripes, their heads
shaved, or they are treated as felons,
it is in direct violationof positive Or
ders of the state board of control
and the governor. Orders to this
effect were issued by the board to
Warden Kincaid.
It is the purpose of the board in
enforcing the criminal insane law
that such sent to the state peniten-
tiary be clothed in civilian garb, be
placed temporarily in q portion of
the prison hospital and there, as uear-
ly as possible, they be given the same
care and attention to their mental
ailments as they would have received
in one of the state asylums for the
insane, except, of course, they will
be more closely guarded.
In the new hospital building to be
erected this year at the prison, ar
rangements will be made for the in
sane ward as contemplated by the
statute.

FREE LOVE COLONY
LAND IS SOLD
This Marks End of Little Band That
Settled in Skagit County Sew
eral Years Ago.

BELLINGHAM, June 19.-Judge
Joiner of Skagit county yesterday
confirmed the sale of the free love
colony property located at Bow to
John Peth, who bid $12,400 for the
land, This marks the end of the lit
tie band that settled. in Skagit coun-
ty some years ago and which started
out to live a Utopian existence. For
time all went well, but internal
dissentions arose as the result of the
practice of free love and soon quar-
rels and theft and incendiarism be-
came so general that an appeal was
taken to the courts, with the result
that Judge Joiner ordered the COM
munity dissolved, the property sold
and the proceeds divided The min
GRITTY faction fought this bitterly, but
were forced to give up when the de-
cision went against them, for they
were without funds and unable to
appeal. 1t is estimated that the land
is worth $4,000, but owing to the
trouble that may arise over the title
only one man bid at the receivers
sale.

COLLIDE IN
DENSE FOG
Two FeIiybo in San Francisco
Bay Crash TOgether-Panic
Follows.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 19.-Dur-
ing a dense fog on the bay this even
ing the ferryboats James NJ. Donahue
and Cazadero of the Sausalito line
collided, but fortunately no lives
were lost The James M. Donahue
was damaged considerable and after
her passengers were transferred to
the Cazadero she was towed to this
side of the bay.
The James NJ Donahue left Saus-
alto at 1880 O'Clock on her regular
trip to this city and the Cazadero was
en- route to Sausalito, having left a
short time earlier. A heavy fog hung
over the bay and strong floodtide
prevailed. The captains of both
steamers proceeded cautiously, but
when the Cazadero reached a posi-
tion between Angel and Alcatraz is
| lands, the Donahue doomed up only a
few lengths away.
Each captain was prompt to act
and engines were quickly reversed
while the whistles were sounded. The
Cazadero was practically at stand
still in few moments, but the
strong tide caused the Donahue to
crash into her with the result that
the paddle-box of the Donahue was
torn away. There were about $50
passengers on the Cazadero and in
the neighborhoOd of 100 on the DON
ahue, many women and children.
When the crash came some of the
passengers were panic-stricken, but
they were soon assured of safety.

TESTIFIES THAT HOLMES
SOLD COTTON STATISTICS
Broker Van Ripper Of New York Dis.
closes Details of Deal Made
With Government Officials

WASHINGTON, June 19.-In Lewis
H. Van Ripper, a New York broker,
the government yesterday introduced
the first witness in the trial of
Edwin H. Holmes Jr.,who has direct
ly connected Holmes with the prema-
ture divulgence of the information
on which the cotton crops of the ag-
ricultural department are based.
Van Ripper said that he had met
Holmes in 1904 through F. A. Peck
ham and that he had agreed to give
him two-thirds of any profits that
might be derived through stock deals
made on points supplied by Holmes.
He then told how Holmes had kept
his part of the agreement by giving
out information day in advance of
appearance of the official report,
quoted figures to show the degree of
accuracy of the information sup
piled and related instances in which
Holmes had been paid money
through Moses Haas.
Van Ripper testified that he kept
him informed of the plans of other
cotton brokers and told how in the
end a regular partnership had been
formed in which Holmes was one of
five members.
Among those to whom he had said
he had supplied the figures, accord
ing to Van Ripper, was Theodore H.
Price and Moses Haas. In December,
1904, the firm was dissolved and Van
Ripper testified that $3S,2S2 had
been paid to Haas in checks and the
same amount to Holmes in cur
rency.

GOES TO BED AFTER
COMPANION BROWNS
New Jersey Man Takes Girl Out for
Boat Ride and Her Corpse is
Found the Next Day.

BRIDGETON, N. j., June 19.-In-
vestigation is being made OF the
drowning in Sunset Lake last night
of Miss Mary Vennel, whose body
was found in shoal water today, the
face and body showing cuts and
bruises.
Last night the girl was rowing
with George Evans. Later their boat
was found filled with water and
Evans was found in bed at home, his
wet clothing hanging over a chair.
His explanation was that in changing
their positions the boat sank under
them.
Evans said he had great difficulty
in freeing himself from his COM
panion, who, he said, was screaming
for help, while she held him tightly
about the neck. They had gone down
twice, Evans said, when he freed
himself and swan ashore. He told
no one of the drowning of the girl.

The rock exposed contained gold. They
would develop it and extract its wealth.
They built a mill and practically tested
first by one method and another,
but the returns were small, and their
farms in Nebraska were having a hard
time to make enough money to keep up
the experimental game. The cyanide
process, something just out, appealed to
them, and they drew on the pocketbook
of the farm sufficient to mine a car of
ore and take it to Denver TO, be Treated
by the new method. But alas! In fig

Denver looked as though the cyanide
process would be a losing game for

could be treated by the process, and de-
cided to try it again. Twenty tons
were mined and this second shipment
showed an extraction of so per cent of
its value. The problem was solved. Up
went the old Mercur mill, and there
was installed the first cyanide plant in

early problems there, one of the most
important being to reduce the base ores
to condition favorable to the cyanide
process.
As the early years were spent with
the solving of this new cyanide pro-

HISTORY OF THE
MINES OF CON. MERCUR
GOLD MINES CO.

During this period of depression. when
gold is dear and other metals cheap.
we can look with pride on Utah's IA
nous gold producer, the Consolidated
Mercur Gold Mines company, that still
keeps grinding on regardless of smelt-
er troubles or low copper and lead.
From their great ore bearing zone there
has been issued during the past fifteen
years and paid in dividends to date
near SO, 500, 900, and it is not throegh
paying yet, but likely to continue for
fifteen years more. The present year
has marked the beginning of another
prosperous era in the history of Mercur.
In its palmy days the higher grade ore
yielded handsome profits, and the prob
lem OF reaching the ideal in how to ex-
tract all the values from all the ore
was forgotten in solving the problem
of how to treat all the refractory Mer-
cur ores
The history of Mercur is one of Che
most interesting in the annals of min
ing. There existed the large deposit
of gold bearing porphyry outcropping
BOLD on the old Mercur claim yet passed
up by the prospector, to whom it APP
peared worthless because it showed no
colors in the pan. Later samples taken
to the assayer showed it contained high
gold values. Then the claim was staked
and the willy prospector would show the
investor over his ground, but would
always forget his gold pan. The visitor,
however, was assured that the ore was
high grade. and reluctantly he filled
his sample sack with the apparent
barren rock and brought it to town to
be assayed. Pleased with his assay re-
