Work Will Probably
Be Resumed in
Ten days.
Returns From Orc very fav.
orabIe---Work tO Be Done
on Nellie Bean Claim.

Word comes from the Village Bell
Mine at Pinkhamton to the effect that
work will in all reliability be resumed
on that property within ten days or two
weeks, and the owners are going to sink
n shaft to n depth sufficient to demon.
strate the quantity and quality of the
ore.
The shrft at present is but one hun.
dred feet in depth, and from various
cross cuts and drifts at this level some
fifteen veins Of copper bearing ore have
been cut the largest of which is four
teen feet in width. From this vein sew
eral tons of copper glance ore has been
taken which give an assay of 40 per cent
copper and the lowest grade of ore in the
vein is eleven per cent.
The machinery now at the Village
consists of n boiler, engine, and hoist
and new machinery, an air compressor
and machine drill will be added to
facilitate the work of sinking the shaft,
and the mine will be thoroughly pros
pected
Eastern parties interested in the Mel
lie Bean group of claims, Just east of the
-Nillcgo .s5,i, were out to inspect the pro
property last week and have decided to
put force of men to work developing
the main vein. This property shows a
well defined vein of copper bearing ore
and should developinto something pret
ty good.
Development work and mining has
been done in this section of country un.
der serious difficulties, the main one be
ing the distance from any railroad point
to and from which freight hnuls have
made it improbable to ship even the
best grades of copper ore. The grading
work now being done on the l.. II. p.
& p railroad from Centennial into the
Park and the positive assurance that this
road will be complied and in operation
within short time will give an impetus
to the mining industry such as has new
grade ore, closed down because the ore
could not be handled, will again he op.
ened, and the product shipped.
There are numerous copper properties
in both the north and west ranges that
need only railroad 20 make them pay
ing mines To the south and east are
many gold and silver prospects and the
once famous Teller mining camp, which
had such phenomenal rise and fall,
but which will eventually be the center
of II rich mineral industry, being in that
section.
The mining in the Park is indeed
bright and the future holds fortunes in
store for the man with the pick and sho.

1900 pounds of
cream churned dur
ing the month
Demand for North Park
Butter Much Greater
Than Supply.

Manager McPhecters, of the North
Park Creamery, states that $4,000 lbs.
of cream was supplied by North Park
ranchmen during the month of July,
the output of the creamery being over
5000 pounds
In the supply Of cream Fischer &
johnson come first with a record of
1000, DE. Sudduih next with 1,500
pounds, c. f. Davis 700 pounds, +. ii.
Hill 700 pounds, A. f. Butler $50 pounds
ETC., down to those who have just com
menced bringing in cream.
The butter output is now about 1000
pounds per week, the decrease being due
to haying, ranchmen now devoting the
greater part of their energies to getting
the hay crop harvested.
After the busy season is over many
new customers will be added to the pres
ent list, and the butter production of
butter will increase from five hudred to
thousand week over what it is at
present North Park butter has, al
though it has been on the market but a
few months, gained n reputation for
f,Aor and quality unequa'led, and the
dc1hnnd is far greater than the supply.
The time is coming shortly when the
produce of butter will equal the beef
product and be classed with it equally
if not ahead as one of the most profit
able industries The wonderful posi-
bilities of the Park, its unequalled hay
quality and quantity is realized by a
number of our people, and converts to
the milking habit are being added con
stantly And this is not all, outside peo
pie are anxious for an opportunity to
come to the Park and engage in the
dairy business.
So far, nearly all who have engaged
in the dairy business here, some for eX-
pertinent, and others because of previ
Gus, success in that line, are more than
satisfied with the result, and are much
pleased with the fair and courteous
treatment extended to them by Manager
McPheeters. He has ondeavored to
make the business success and give all
the encouragement and information at
his command to customers and pros

A lawyer by profession, n man Of keen
intellect, temperate in his habits, and
pleasing personality, he bade fair to be-
come one of the leading men in his pro-
fession in Colorado. He started practic-
ing law in Walden, afterwards moving
to Louisville, where he was doing we'll.
Four years ago he was married to Miss
Nellie Riggen, eldest daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. j. w. Riggen, of Walden.
Two little daughters were born to them.
The home was an exceptionally happy
one, and to lose the husband and father
when life held so much in store for him
is shock that cannot be realized,
Words are inadequate to express the
sympathy of everyone felt for the be
reaved family in their loss.
After the business affairs of the de
ceased have been arranged Mrs. AfTolter
and the little girls will return to reside
with her parents in Walden.

John AffoIter Dead.

The entire community was distressed
and shocked Monday morning to hear
of the death, at o'clock that morning
of John Afrolter, who was operated upon
Sunday morning for appendicitis.
The operation was performed by Drs.
Craig, of Denver aud Fischer and Snair
of Walden, and was successful, the pa
tient rallying in good shape, but about
o'clock, septic poisoning became appar-
ent and he was soon beyond medical
aid
Mr. Afrolter was informed of the ser
iousness of his condition.. and was able
to arrange all his business affairs, re-
manning conscious up to within short
time before death. His wife, brother,
Ed. Atfolter, Mrs j. W. Riggen, Mrs.
Affolters mother, and Mr.. and Mrs. H.
h. Hampton, were present when the end
came. So severe was the shock to Mrs.
Affolter her life was despaired of, but
the untiring efforts of the physicians
were successful to the extent that she
was able to leave Tuesday morning for
Louisville accompanied by her mother,
Ed. Affolter, and the nurse who attend
ed Mr. Atfolter.
The remains were prepared for burial
and taken to Louisville where they will

Mr. Afrolter was taken i'll with ap
pendicitis at VIM. Donnelson's, of Rand,
while on his way to CRANKY, in compa
ny with j w. Riggen from which point
he expected to take the train for Louis
vile after a business visit in the Park.
Drs. Fischer amp Snair were summoned,
and were successful in checking the in
tlammation for time. but complica-
tions arose and an operation became i'm
perative. DR.. Craig, noted specialist
of Denver, accompanied by the patients S
brother, Ed and trained nurse. came
in and Sunday morning the operation
was performed, with every indication Of
success, but the poison engendered by
the condition of the appendix had penc-
trated his system and finally gained the
upper hand.
Mr.. Affolter had suffered from prev
ious attacks of appendicitis, and is the
third member of the family to succumb
to the disease.
John Affolter was but 80 years of age.

Special Services.

The revival meetings in Walden under
the evangelistic efforts of Kew. j. NJ.
Beadles is still in progress and great
good is being accomplished in the name
of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
About twenty five persons in the town
and country have either renewed their
covenant with God, or taken for the first
time, Christ rs their personal Savior.
Last Sunday night the church was
well filed, chairs having been put in to
increase the seating capacity We
think no audience in Walden were ever
more seriously wrapped in thots that
stir the soul than that of Sunday night
us Rev. Beadles told them of what God
had to say concerning the Second Death.
The text was taken from Revelations,
2l:S. At the close of the service eight
persons united with the church.
We hope that the people of Walden
and vicinity will put forth every pos
sible effort to attend the remaining ser
vices, lest some shall take up that
awful lament uttered in the time oi
jeremiah the Prophet DER S:2O) ''The
harvest is past, the summer is ended
and we are not saved"
Next Sabbath extra seating will he
prepared for the accommodation of the
people.

Dairying as any other business must
be systematized and constantly looked
after to make it a success. The cream
tests places the thoroughbred stock as
common stock, but the latter can be
made to pay we'll by careful handling
and keeping all the Improbable COWS
out of the herd. The best way to ascer-
tain the profitable or Improbable COWS
is to have the milk of each COW tested
every so often, say once a month. This
can be done with very little trouble and
no cost, Mr.. McPheeters being glad to
test the milk any time you wish.
In this manner you can keep your COWS
up to the standard and not waste time
on milking and separating quantity OF
Improbable cream
Cows must have kind treatment and
be milked and fed regularly IN order TO
gain the best results. Loud talk and
rough handling VIII make the finest

As an argument in favor of thorough

tests in the creamery here are the best
points that can be advanced. The Hol-
stein COWS imported by Archie Hunter
