Near Approach Of Ore Body.
HORSE THROWS RIDER
AND BREAKS GLASS.

A peculiar accident happend Mon.
day on Main street, say the Sheridan
Post. A young man who occupies the
position of coachman for Mr.. B. f.
Perkins was riding one of the driving
horses and carrying a broom. The
horse threw the rider over his head
and taking the sidewalk on the east
side of the street started toward home.
Arriving in front of the Coffeen-Schnit.
ger company store, his feet slipped on
the cement walk, and he fell sprawl
ing, putting n of his hind feet
through the plate glass front. He
quickly regained his feet and ran a
short distance, when he was caught.
No injury resulted to either horse or
rider. The damage to the store front
will be $40 or $50.

Some Crop statistics.

Estimates made in advance by the
advertising department of the Union
Pacific have been verified by the gov
eminent crop reports which have re-
Gently been compiled by the Union
Pacific. says the Omaha Bee. The
Union Pacific estimate was made last
September before the crops were har-
vested and the government report was
compiled after the crops had been
gathered.
The report shows that in the western
states and territories IS, most of which
are adjacent to the Union Pacific, 81
SOC, 800 acres were cultivated. On
this land 1850, 1892, coo bushels of grain
and potatoes were raised and q ,372,-
600 tons of hay were pu up. The total
farm value of these crops was $1,O91
949, $50, being one-third Of the total
farm value of these crops in the Unif-
ed States.
Farm Values BY States.
That the corn exposition will be d
splendid thing in assisting the far
mers in raising the farm value of crops
per acre and that it is needed in Nep.
raska is shown by the report. The
farm values of the different states per
acre are: Nebraska, $10.43; Iowa,
$11.7S; Missouri, S13.65; Kansas,
1925; Wyoming s1S.S9; Colorado
s25.SS; Utah, 1881; Idaho, s20.S2;
Montana, $20.1S; Oregon, $20.12;
Washington, s23.39; Nevada, $22.5G:
California, $2O.79: Louisiana, $12.76;
Texas, s12.60; New Mexico, $23.37r
and Arizona, 1851.
The corn crop in Nebraska averaged
twenty-four bushels per acre, Iowa
29.5, Missouri 81, Kansas 22.1, Wyo
ming rs, Colorado 30, Utah 23 and Cali
fornia "a.
The winter wheat averaged 10 bush
els in Nebraska, 1875 in Iowa, 1872 i,
Missouri and 1916 in Washington.

DOES NOT WANT TO
SEE HER HUSBAND
WIFE OF ONE OF THE VICTIMS OF
HANNA MINE EXPLOSION Be
LIEvEs BODY BURNED.
Mrs. Richard Wilson, Whose Crippled
Husband Went to Rescue of His
Comrades, Wishes No One to Risk
His Life in Saving Charred and
Unrecoenizable Remains.

Hanna, Wyo., April 3.-The rela-
tives n friends Of miners caught in
last Saturdays explosion are accepting
the delay in recovery of bodies with
patience, while a few townspeople are
chatting at postponement of efforts to
penetrate the depths of mien Nc. l. Most
of the women whose husbands are
lying dead in the mine seem to take
the position that it can death to
anyone who tries to enter the pit at
this time, and prefer that the mine of.
ficials use their own judgment in re
gard to starting systematic search for
the remains.
Does Not Want to See Body.
Il am convinced that my husband
is dead and that his body is possibly
him anyway, and | do not want anyone
else to risk his life in trying to bring
the body to me-" says Mrs. Richard
Wilson, wife of the crippled hero who
refused to allow the memory of the
horror of 1903 to deter him from head
ing the nrSt rescue party.
Fires Are Still Raging.
1t is the general opinion here now
that the fires inside the mine that fol.
lowed the two explosions have con.
sumed or charred beyond recognition
the bodies if they were not buried by
the debris that rained upon the noor
of the east slope and entries after the
second blast.
MY opinion is that the fire is still
raging inside the mine and that the
slope ought to be kept sealed for n
other MONTH" said State Mine H.
spectorf Noah Young of the northern
district today.
May Never Get Bodies.
Two men were badly overcome
when the east slope was entered for
thirty feet yesterday and it is extreme
ly dangerous and foolhardy to try to
work in there now. While it would be
a sad thing to give the people no
chance to try and find their loved ones
and give them regular burial, still it
would be best policy to seal the mina
up forever and eve work it again
unless from entirely new workings.
Will Recommend Condemnation.
1T is. a valuable coal body, but
doubt if the company can ever get men
to work it through the present slopes.
I shall recommend to Governor Brooks
that the mine be condemned, but our
nrnennt 1or,- 10 MOI o11nu- a.. 10 ahgn-
lutely forbid its operation"
Local Men Will Not Enter.
The truth of Inspector Young's as
, 1908-04-03

sertion about the reluctance of miners
her to again enter the mine is shown
by the inability of the company ofic-
ials to get local men to go down at this
time. All of the party of yesterday
who put in the stopping thirty feet from
the entrance to the east slope were
from Cumberland and Rock Springs.
Experts, it is true, but men who have
not passed through the experiences
of the men of Hanna during the past
week.

OF ONLY EIGHT FEET.
Proof That Ore Body is One Hundred

Topeka Company Reaching the
Face of Pure Red Lime.
By William Benton.

Lake Creek, Wyo., April 2.-The
Pollyton Gold Mining company order.
ed work commenced on the Pollyton
mine, which we proceeded to do a few
days ago, with a force of three miners.
Commencing to sink a working shaft
a little west of the former work on the
vein, today the miners encountered
the ore in the bot ON of the shaft at a
depth of eight feet, and tonight the
ore is eighteen inches wide the full
length of the shaft, seven feet long.
This proves the ore body 100 feet long
continuously, as the former work of
opening the vein in place, at four diff
feet east, proved ore in all places.
Rich at the Bottom.
The ore is the richest in the bottom
of the shaft tonight of any it has been
my pleasure to see come from this un-
commonly rich property.
The shaft tonight is eleven feet
deep and the ore is widening and 10
all appearances getting richer as ii
becomes more solid. The miners are
sacking about six sacks of ore per
foot of sinking of the rick ore, the
lower grade ore, which is a fine ore
for this depth, being put on the ore
dump.
Near Approach Of Ore Body.
The Topeka Copper company is en-
countering some fine looking ore in
the 13O-foot crosscut towards the foot
wall of the vein. The breast of the
tunnel is now in TAO feet, having a
face of practically pure red lime, a
sure sign of the near approach to a
rich body Of ore in this vein.
