GRAND MARCH AT $50
iIEUTENnNr HAD SURE THING.
Western Colonel an Easy Mark for
Gambling Shark.

A lieutenant attached to one Of the
eastern forts gained a reputation for
his unlimited betting on the slightest
provocation. 1t was but a short time
before he had nearly cleaned out all
the members of the company to which
he was attached 1t was therefore
with some relief that the members and
officers saw him transferred to Kan
sas. But the day before his arrival
the colonel Of the eastern fort wrote
TO his friend, the colonel of the Kan
sas fort, Of the reputation and sharp
ness Of the betting lieutenant, so that
the western contingent were fully
aware Of what was coming. Upon the
day Of his arrival; he was cordially
greeted, and the colonel remarked:
L understand you have somewhat of a
reputation for betting in the east"
The lieutenant tried to belittie the
statement, but as the colonel got in
s1stent for details, the lieutenant said:
I'll bet you $50 that you have got
something on your back" The col
onel denied having anything on his
back except his uniform. The lieuten-
ant said: "I'll bet you $50 you have
got two big red spots on your back
near your shoulder blade" The col
onel took him up quickly. The money
was put in the hands Of brother Off.
Ger. The lieutenant said that the
colonel should strip to prove that he
was the winner, so off came the uni
form, even to the shirt There was
nothing on the colonel's back, and so
the bet was lost by the lieutenant, who
remarked: We'll, lost that some

PHILADELPHIA BROKER
IN TOWN TO GET POSTED

j. Maurice Wynn. of the big PhiladeJ-
phla brokerage firm of J. W. Sparks &
Co, was in the city a few hours yester-
day on his way back from a several
weeks pilgrimage through Goldfield and
other Nevada camps in which many of
the firms clients are interested He was
an interested spectator on the floor of the
exchange during the forenoon call and he
stated that he had no idea that Salt Lake
could boast such a lively institution
He was out after information concern
ing all mines Of this western country. and
expressed establishment at what was re-
lated to him by various members of the
exchange concerning Utah mines and
camps. When 1t was explained to him
that the local exchange was doing a bus-
mess of more than 100000 a month in
home stocks and that the mines of the
state stood practically without peers as
dividend payers in this region, the visitor
marveled that more was not said about il
in the eastern press. OF course. he had
nothing to say about the publicity meth
DDS of other sections. but when he pulled
out for home in the afternoon it was with
fund of information that would at least
give him something TO think about. He
found, for one thing. that ore shipments
made from properties in other states that
were heralded as marvels of mining
throughout the world, were nothing more
than incidents in the records of Utah
mines, even to the production of gold
When he glanced down through the long
list of dividend payers and the money thew
paid out last year, he found something
he had not been shown during his west
ern visit and something that he could not
find elsewhere. Had he stayed over an
other day, he would have learned so much
about Utah and its mines that he would
have almost forgotten everything he had
heard i'm Nevada. Mr. Wynn was here
only a few hours. but they will prove
valuable ones TO him in the future.

GOLD CIRCLE
MINES ARE GOOD
One OF the First Men in the Dis
trlCt Brings Fine Report
From Camp.

L. A. Leamy, manager of the Midas
Townsite company in the Gold Circle
district, and one of the early men into
that camp last year, was in the city
yesterday on his way to Butte, where
he lived for many years, and where he
was principal of the Butte High school.
Mr.. Ledmy was the original owner of
the group of claims now owned by the
Rex Mining company, the control of
winch rests with the Horton Banking
company of Battle Mountain. He saws
the property is turning out well: that
a torty-tive-foOt shaft is now down in
ten feet of ore that averages $40 in gold
per ton, and that he has no doubt the
ground is going to make one of the big
producers of the camp.
The visitor exhibited some samples
of tellurium ore worth SIS a pound that
was taken from the Tracy property,
east of the Gold Circle Crown and Rex
companies possessions. This ore comes
from a small streak that makes in a
ledge OF splendid milling rock, and he
considers the property a valuable one.
Mr. Leamy had samples from a large
number of the properties and the va
riety of the ore was sufficient to demon
strate that the camp has all kinds of
possibilities. He had a chunk of 81, 500
ore that he secured at a depth of ninety
feet in the shaft on the Gold Circle
Crown company's property, and he de-
ciares that a mine is being rapidly
opened up by the company, while a
dozen or more leasers on the property
are doing well, also.
The Midas. known as the Bamberger
property, has been showing up fine.
and the company is now pounding
down d working shaft that had at
tanned a depth of fifty feet when he
left
The st. Paul cOmpany's workings, he
says, are locked up tighter than a bank
vault, but for what reason has not been
disclosed, though he Npresumes some
development has taken place which the
mine management does not care to dis
close until some of the big men in the
company, who are due from the east,
reach camp.
Two hundred dollar ore is being
mined in the ElkO Prince company's
property and Lesley Savage, one of the
chief men in this company, has iust
gone east on business, which il is be-
lieVed involves the sale of the property.
The st. Paul, he says, is opening up
bigger and better every day, and there
is dozen or more other properties that
deserve special mention. No less than
seventy leases are now in active opera
ton in the district, and Mr.. Leamy is
sanguine that, before the present year
has been put behind by Father Time.
the Gold Circle district will be attract
ing all kinds of attention, strictly on its
merits.
Regarding the town of Midas, he
states that it is growing nicely and in
step with the development of the mines.
and that the people are now enjoying
the benefits of the waterworks system
that the townsite company has been in
stalling.

trading was listiess and draggy through

ever were not injured and here and there
slight advances over the previous days
selling prices were recorded. The public

Mines and Mining Stocks

TO bother with the old workings in the
property, as they were only of a pros
pecting kind, and il would have cost
more TO open the mine through them
than 10 put down the new shaft.
The rounding out of this new COM
pany and its financing in the east is
another evidence of the keen interest
that is now being taken in the Beaver
county districts and, judging from the
previously made in the ground
another big mine should result from the
that has now been decided
on
