THE BANNER

Near a point on the drift north on
No. level, which the manager had
named the "Nelson Shoot, because
Mr.. Nelson, a Minneapolis stock
holders, had, when visiting here last
summer picked down and took home
with him and had assayed, sample of
the ore, which showed a value of S25S.
A cross-cut was started from the drift
to ascertain the width of the vein. Last
Friday the mine superintendent said
he had run into rich body of ore,
and showed samples of it which caused
considerable excitement among inter
ested parties. They had an average
sample assayed and it went away up,
but Nugget is not permitted to give out
the exact figures. 1t created a good
deal of enthusiasm among the interest
ed parties, and after the samples we're
sent to be assayed they kept on devel-
oping the ore body, and the next day
showed other and better specimens. 1t
is settled that there is an extensive
shoot of thisgrade, and the indications
denote that it is growing wider with
greater depth. The character of the
ore changes between levels No 3 and
4. Higher up the larger per centage of
the values are gold, while deeper, the
silver predominales. The finding of
this body of ore was not unlocked for,
because il. the No. drift north, 120
feet higher up and fully 100 feet north
similar ore had been found bofore work
had been suspended on that level, and
the superintendent had been pushing
No. level north to get under this
point, but he had kept his drift near
the west wall of the ledge, which is here
2l feet wide and had not been hereto
fore crosscut. If the company several
months ago, felt that it had pay ore
enough in sight to warrant its building
a costly mill, it may feel sure of it
now
Taking advantage of the better wealth
er for the past few days, the carpen-
ters have got the frame up for the roof
to cover the remaining or upper portion
of the mill roof; covering the batteries,
ore bins, etc. The west side Of the
mill has been lined with paper sheat-
ing, and the window frames and win
dows are ready to be put in. The roof
sheating is all on and the paper lining
and iron roofing will be put on, with a
few days favorable weather, when the
machinery will begin to be put in place

Defense Rests in Petnbone Trial

The attorneys for the defense in the
Pettibone trial now going on at Boise,
sprung a surprise on the court and the
prosecution by announcing on Wednes-
day that they would rest their case
without taking any evidence, and ask
ing the court to excuse all their wit
nesses. Judge o. N. Hilton, of Denver,
who has been brought into the case
since the illness of Mr. Darrow, made
this announcement; stating that was
the conclusion which he and his fellow
attorneys had arrived at after review
ing the evidence produced by the pros
ecution, claiming that nothing had
been shown to in anywise connect the
defendant with the murder of former
Governor Steunenberg.
This leaves the prosecution to make
their pleas to thejary without oppos-
ition, as it is announced that the de-
fense will not make any arguments.
Thus it seems that the trials of Hay
wood and the others charged with be-
ing implicated in the assination of
Steunenberg will all terminate without
a conviction, and we have had case in
Idaho which has attracted worldwide
notice and the state been at an enor-
nous expense without any results; ex-
cept that Harry Orchard, by his own
story, is about the meanest unhung
criminal the world has ever known.

Immune
Bad Houses
CHIEF OF DETECTIVES HAS LONG
KNOWN SOME THAT HAVE New
Err BEEN DISTURBED.

The admission that houses of pros
titution are being run openly in the
city with the complete cognizance of
the police, was the startling evidence
given by Chief of Detectives Kala-
kiela on the witness stand in Judge
De Bolts court this morning He was
placed on the stand to show the char
acter of the Togashi Hotel on Kala-
kaua avenue and also that of the Hi
rano Hotel at Nuuanu and Kukui
streets, where it had been sworn that
Mercedes. Briggs, the petitioner in the
habeas corpus suit against Frank Har-
vey, had gone with sailors. .
Kalakiela stated with utmost frank
ness that he knew that both places
were of i'll repute and that, while he
knew that the Togashi Hotel was a
place of this character and had been
running for a long time and was still
of the same kind he had never made
a raid there. He had been there and
seen people coming out, he said, but
refused to go further. He did not
state by whose orders the place was
protected from the raids such as were
made at Iwilei.
The case for Harvey was completed
this morning by Attorney Watson,
who placed witnesses on the stand to
show the alleged bad character of the
petitioner A hackman, who had driv-
en- to Japanese hotels when the fleet
was, here, told his tale, announcing
calmly that he knew all the bad girls
in town. Kalakiela told of his know
ledge of the character of the places, as
mentioned above, and then Miss Eliza
beth Harvey was placed on the stand.
Watson simply questioned her in re-
gard to her feeling toward the child
and her wish to adopt the little one.
Then the child was brought forward
and questioned by the Judge, though
not sworn, being but seven years old
] When asked where she wanted to live
she smiled and lisped that she wanted
to live with father" When asked
to point to her father" she picked
out Frank Harvey at once and theH
nestled close to Miss Harvey, as the
latter held her where she sat on the
judges desk The case should bC
completed today.

the entire year of 1907 there were but
four cases of violation of the liquor
laws brought before Judge Robinson's
court, in the past ten months there
were seventeen of these cases and in
but one of these was an acquittal OBJ
tanned, the other defendants all be-
ing convicted
In addition to this mass of criminal
work, Judge Robinson has had a
great deal of time taken up with civil
case matters. During 1907 there were
eleven long civil cases tried before
juries, while the jury-waived cases
numbered IS.
Further work in the handling OF
grand jury reports, and the matters or
the grand jury which came up in 9TH
err connections, the hearing of motions
which come in by the score, are not
shown, but serve to take up more
time than the layman has any appre-
citation of.
There were but two cases of MUIR
der in the first degree brought up.
These were very quickly disposed of and
the prisoners released as the result
of a plea in bar, which. was entered by
w. T. Rawlins, the attorney for the
defendants, who brought up an old
point of law which had been over
looked for some time, and thus. set
his clients free.

ATHLETIC FIELD
FOR Y NJ. G. A.

The local Y. NJ. @ A. has been
granted the use of the tract between
the dismantled Grove furnaces and the
old canal for an athletic field.
Under the direction of Physical Di-
rector J. @. Ainsworth considerable
work in fixing up the ground has al
ready been accomplished by the mem
bers of the gymnasium classes. But
little more remains to be- done than to
haul sand on the ground to be used in
connection with high and broad jump
ing.
The ground is we'll adapted to athle.
tic sports, while two rows of stately
trees furnish refreshing shade. The
field is about 1875 yards in length and
will afford 220 track without diff
Guilty.
In addition to running the ground
will be used for jumping, pole vault
ing, shot putting, parallel bars. etc.
During the summer the athletic field
will sustain to the Y. NJ @. A. the
same relation that the gymnasium does
in winter

WILL RESUME
WORK ON PARK

Pursuant to action of council Ira o.
Everhart. chairman of the committee
of public property and public i'm
provement, has taken up the matter of
the public park and will eudeavor to
get the solicitors at work again to the
end that money needed to complete the
work may be obtained without delay.
The very first thing for which mon
ey will be needed is the sowing
of grass seed. This work, Mr.. Ever
hard says, should be done Immediate
ly. Coincident with the seeding of
the tract the small amount of grading
that remains to be done should be COM
pleted.
The soliciting last year was in the
bands OF committee of twelve citiz-
ems, three members being chosen from
each ward, which acted jointly with
the committee on public improvements
of council
Through the aggressiveness of the
finance committee enough money was
collected to carry the work on the park
to its present stage.
The money was paid in as fast as
needed to liquidate the bills and when
the advent of winter made further
work on the park impracticable there
still remained due from the subscrib
ers considerable balance, which is
relied upon by the committee to assist
in finishing the park.
Money will be needed Immediately
but before additional subscriptions are
solicited those who have subscribed
and have not paid over the money will
be waited upon by the solicitors. To
complete the park It is not known how
much money will be needed over and
above what has been pledged but it is
believed that the solicitors will have
to renew their canvass.

RIVER BRIDGE
NEEDS PAINT

The iron work of the river bridge,
following the winter, presents very
bad appearance. Il clearly needs coat
of paint-quire as much for the sake
of appearance as a means of preserv-
ing the iron.
At the last term of court the grand
jury recommended that the ends of the
batter posts be repainted. Those sur
faces being much exposed were then
nearly void of paint and were badly
affected with rust
At present, however, the whole sys-
tenn of iron work presents practically
the same appearance. There is very
little evidence of paint on the iron
and all over the structure the rust can
be seen eating its way into post and
beam. Owing to this cause the impos-
ing system of iron work. so much ad-
mired when new, has lost a great deal
of its dignity and charm.
Evidently. if the best care is to be
taken of the bridge, the subject of re-
painting the structure is one of the
things that the county commissioners
will have to consider at an early day.

A THRILLING
EXPERIENCE

Miss Lou Davis, Mrs. H. M. Sober
and child figured in a dangerous run
away Tuesday, but escaped without
sustaining serious injury.
The accident occurred about o. clock.
The persons above named, accompani-
ed by Clyde Davis as driver started
out for ride.
The carriage used was two-seated
one. The harness, however, was in
tended for lighter vehicle and was
equipped with breast collar. Mr..
Davis concluded that the horse would
get along better if he changed collars,
putting on neck collar. He accord
ingly drove around to the alley, stop
ping outside the stable at the rear of
the Davis homestead. East Front
street. Here while Miss Davis. Mrs.
Sober and child remained seated in the
carriage he attempted to change the
collars.
No sooner had he removed the bride,
than the horse, catching glimpse of
the carriage top behind him, got
frightened and with single bound es
capped from Mr. Davis and dashed
down the alley. 1t was frightful ex-
perience. Thoroughly unnerved and
moved by sudden impulse Miss Davis
leaped out Of the carriage.
Striking the wheel she was hurled
violently to the ground where she lay
insensible, while the horse continued
his mad flight down the alley.
Near the Suspender factory owned
by julius Helm the horse in attempt
ing to make short turn fell and caus-
ed the carriage to upset. Mrs. Sober
and child, who until that moment had
held on to the carriage, were thrown
out upon the ground AT this juncture
the horse was caught. The wagon top
was broken where it came in contact
with the ground.
Both Mrs. Sober and child escaped
injury beyond few bruises. Miss
Davis, however, did not fare so we'll.
Unconscious she was carried to the
home of her parents, where DR.. P. @.
Newbaker was called.
She soon rallied, however, and it
was discovered that her injuries were
not serious.
