They Had in Fire.
Special to Times Republican.
Iowa Falls, Oct. I'm the fire that
destroyed the Iowa Falls laundry,
Tuesday night. Owen &c Stevens, two
young men who recently bought the
property, lost all they had in the world.
They came here from Minneapolis last
spring, and were doing a fine business,
being experienced daundrymen. Nhe
loss is estimated at $4,000, and the in
surance Is only $1,000, which 1t Is re-
ported, will be wiped out by the incum-
brance on the property. 1t is not
probable that the laundry will be re-
built, as 1t seems to have been a hoo
doc for everyone who ever had any
thing to do with the proposition with
the destruction of the laundry, and the
closing of the Chinese wash house by
reason of the proprietor going to jail
for sixty days, the city is left entirely
without laundry facilities.

News from Gold Circle is that the
great Boyle and Weston lease on the
Esmeralda group, on which the sem
sational strike was made few weeks
ago, is showing richer than ever. One
shipment has been made from this
lease and there is enough bonanza
ore developed to insure a steady out
put. Until the strike on the Queen
group this lease was the biggest
thing in the camp. The strikes which
have followed each other in, rapid
succession at Gold Circle. within the
last few weeks have naturally arous-
ed the greatest excitement and re-

OLD TRAGEDY
OF THE MINES
is RECALLED

A brief sketch of the rediscovery /
of the Dundee mine by w. S. O'Brien
is of more than passing interest. The
tragedy surrounding it's discovery is
fresh in the minds of men who were
in this district at the time, but un-
fortunately the names of the men in
volved in the fatal affair have escap-
ed their memories, says the Chafey
News.
Two sturdy young men joined the
camp of Dun Glen in the spring of
'65. and after prospecting the district
for some time located What they
thought to be very rich mine.
They were quiet, unassuming men,
bers of the community and worked
their claims for several months and
seldom mixed with their neighbors.
Several sacks of very rich ore was
known to have been obtained by these
men which were taken to the coast by
the younger partner. Upon his re-
turn it was noticed that the partners
seldom spoke to each other and the
older man built cabin which he oc-
cupied alone. The younger man
gradually became more friendly and
communicative with the prospectors
and residents of the district and as
his true worth appeared on the sur
face he became a general favorite in
the camp. His partner appeared
more morose and sullen as time pass
ed and seldom if ever joined his fell
low gold-seekers in their convivial
moods
A party of prospectors happening
along one morning over the Dundee
claim noticed a pool of blood directly
in front of the tent of the younger Of
the men, and stepping inside were
Mortified to find his body lying on the
floor with large knife cash in hi
throat. They Immediately instituted
a search for his partner, who was no
where to be found.
A searching party was formed, thu
several members of which secured TIL
country in every direction and from
information obtainec the fleeing mai
was caught near the Oregon line. HI
confessed TO the murder, which h
claimed to have committed in hea
of passion over dispute in dividin
the money due from shipment o
ore and in the struggle used tn
knife, killing his partner the evenin
before he was found in the cabin. TIL
posse hastily counciled and after
short deliberation decided to max
short-shift of the self-confessed mul
derer and he was promptly lynche
for his crime.
Thirty years or more afterward
Mr.. O'Brien, the well- known mimi

man and prospector, while examining
the different lodges in this part of the
district, came upon an old cedar tree
on which was blazed the inscription
stating that 100 feet to the east was
the shaft of the Dundee mine. A
short distance away he came upon
gopher hole which contained several
pieces of gold quartz. Taking some
of the yellowish looking dirt from the
bottom of the, hole he found that it
PANIED well, and following up the d.
rection indicated by the inscription
he found an old abandoned shaft
about ten feet deep, at the bottom of
which he found pick, shovel and
hammer rusty from disuse, the
handles of which had long since rot
ted away. For several days he work
ed cleaning out the debris which had
for years been accommodating in the
bottom of the old workings and was
rewarded by exposing fine quartz
ledge about four feet wide of good
milling ore. The ledge contained
several rich stringers which would
run from $500 to $4,000 per ton.
O'Brien picked out the rich streaks
for several months, using hand
mortar to crush the rich rock and in
this manner succeeded in taking sew
eral hundred dollars, which enabled
supplies, 1t was understood by those
who were in the district at the time
that anyone who wished could take
the rich rock and with hand mortar
get sufficient of the yellow stuff t.
replenish his larder.

WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY.
Not on a Commercial Basis as Yet
notwithstanding Claims.

I'VE have noticed says The Elec'
trical Review, that during the past
few weeks the excitement in the daily
press over the extraordinary achieve
ments of the Marconi Company, re.
fected in more than n OF the tech
meal journals, has wholly died out,
and that wireless telegraphy Is receiv-
ing, and attracting, practically no at
tentiOn. We are now In possession of
the explanation of this curious sue
cession of events. The attempt to es-
tablish commercial service has been
wholly premature. Just as in 1903,
when a similar attempt was made, re.
sulting in a complete fiasco, so now in
1908 enthusiasm has outrun discretion,
and the trumpetings Of a few weeks
ago are succeeded by dead silence in
the press. Such maneuvers are highly
calculated to bring unmerited dis
credit upon that blameless infant,
wireless telegraphy, while they do Sc
rious injury t the allied art of sub
marine telegraphy, and give rise to
suggestions, which may be b%aseless,
that their motive is financial rather
than commercial"

An Old English Coach.

rect In every detail, eve to the step
and the shield on the door. The win
dows in the coach are heart shape,
as is the door, while the wheels are
most elaborate and full of significance,
for each spoke is an arrow and Is
apparently run through a dark red
heart.
Three pretty girls look out of the
windows, while the coaehman and
footman on top, CARRIED in white, drive
three white woolly lambs that are har,
messed to the coach with red silk
cords. The predominating colors are
white and red, with a touch of blue.
As a wall decoration this valentine
would be most appropriate.
Though not as unusual as the coach,
a fan valentine made of a series of
heart.shaped frames ~inclosing pretty
