Will REMAIN
ANOTHER YEAR /!
Rev. Waite. Pastor Of the First
Presbyterian Church. Noti-
fies His Congregation that
He Will Remain for at Least
Another Year.

Sunday morning after the regular
services at the PRESBYTERIAN church a
meeting was called by
the pastor TO talk over matters per.
tanning Ia church work. During the
meeting Rev. Waite was asked II he
intended to remain for another year.
The congregation was much gratiiied
and judging from the smiles which
went over the faces OF the members
they would have liked to cheered,
to learn that Rev. Waite has con
cluded TO remain for ut least another
year.
When Rev. Waite came here to
take charge OF the work IL was gener.
ally understood that he was out from
Chinese mission work, and had only
year and a half furlough. For this
reason II was not anticipated that he
could remain more than year. and
the fact that he had secured an ex.
tension OF absence came as a most
agreeable surprise.
The work under the pastorate al
Rev. Waite has been greatly strength
ened. lie Is most indefatigahlt
worker, lmpresses one rs deeply sin
cere and earnest 10 the pulpit and
there is very noticeable increase
In the attendance. lie delivers hi.
sermons to the audience and not over
their heads, and Is not afraid T.
criticise the members OF the church
for any disregard In the performance
Of their Christian duty.
Since he came here the congrega'
tion has raised the funds with whict
TO build manse and next year TIL,
church will be nearer self.suppoItinI
than II has been In the past. Rev.
Waite has brother engaged IN tho
ministry at st. Anthony, who IL ek

have one delegate for each 1a5 votes

major part of that number. This
plan was generally agreed to be fair
to all concerned and particularly so
to the southwest, where the vote at
the last election was unevenly dis

dates. Heretofore the apportionment
has generally been made upon the

Through some dissension among
the stockholders Mr.. Edwards was
superseded by "a man by the name
OF John Uren, who stripped the mine
ana gouged out the ore In sight.
The result OF such management
was that the property naturally come
to the condition that closing down
was inevitable. Some years ago the
thirty stamp mill on this property
was destroyed by fire, but at the
present time there is IA fifteen stamp
mill on the property.
When here some weeks ago Mr..
Edwards examined the mine thor
oughly, and upon his report the man.
agement concluded TO send Mr.. ed.
wards here TO have the old workings
cleaned out, with Instructions to dc
the necessary amount OF development
work to again start up with the force
employed In the past. While Mr..
Edwards was superintendent of the
mine some years ago, he was gen
orally liked by the men In his employ
and was good man for the country
He has many friends here who will
be glad OF his return, as the starting
up of this property will mean much
to every other branch OF industry o
the country as we'll as that of the
mining industry. Until the last yeal
or two there are few mines, IL any

Paid Handsome Dividends in Gold Productions.

Some weeks ago r. L. Edwards,
one Of the stockholders In tie Kitty
Burton Mining company, made trip
in here to look over the mine and
report to the other stockholders the
conditions. The Recorder is In a
position to state that the investiea-
tion has borne fruit and the mine
will be pu. In shape as fast as the
conditions will permit to put the
property on paying basis. Mr.,
Edwards Is not only mining expert.
and mineralogist, but has had the
practical experience In mining devel.
Opment.
This mine was closed down about a
year ago, chiefly due undoubtedly to
the fact that the management of the
mine had been In the hands OF an IN.
experienced man, who figured more
on immediate dividends than future
success. AS result OF this policy
the ore shoots had been worked out,
the tunnels permitted to cave In, and
no effort made to open up new ore
bodies. This sort Of management
was persisted In for all the mine in
the past dozen years had produced
over an estimated half million dol.

Jury IN the Trial Of Black & 60.
Bring in Verdict Of Not
Guilty Of Keeping Place
Open on Sunday.

The case against j. II. Black &
Co., on the charge OF violating the
Sunday closing law, was called before
Justice 6eertson, OF Baker, Friday OF
last week. The prosecution was re-
presented by J.. {. Sinclair, In the
absence OF County Attorney Cowen
and George W. Noble appearing for
the defense, A constable was ap-
pointed by Justice Geertson 10 EN-.

The following citizens OF the town.
ship we're selected to act as Jurors:
James Owen, George Devils, James
Hendricks, Robert stobie, II. O.
Swift and John Sweeney. The only
Juror rejected was Chris Christen-
sen, which was done by the defense.
The witnesses for the prosecution
were +, A. Hagen, II G. King, W.
h. Jones, Elijah Schoheld. Jr. aud
Mrs. Il. A. Hagen. +. A. Hagen
was the drst witness called lie
testified that he was In the saloon OF
the accused parties on the Sunday
alleged In the complaint In both the
afternoon and until about midnight
In the evening, Ills evidence was
corroborated by both Elijah Scho-
field, Jr. and Mrs. Hagen when they
were called To the stand.
| II was brought out IN the evidence
that Mrs. Hagen had secured the
assistance OF Mr.. Schoiield TO go
with her and assist IN fnding her
husband. II Is stated that Schofeld
asked for Hagen at this saloon but
was answered that he was not there.
IL Is also said that one OF the parties
who were in the Salon at the time
told Hagen that his wife was looking
tor him. IL was also brought out
that Hagen at once started for his
home, but not finding bis wife there
again started up town. This was at
the midnight hour or few minutes
after midnight Monday morning.
AS Hagen was coming up town IL
Is alleged that he met his wife and
her companion on their way home,
having visited the other saloons In
town after their call at the saloons
OF the defendants. These three wit
nesses testified that this was but n
few minutes after the midnight hour.
The witnesses for the defense were
j. ID. Black, Albert Jackson, Al
Jinegar, James Gibbs, Judge Giles
and Henry Smith. These witnesses,
or at least the most OF them swore
positively that the saloon was not
open during the alleged Sunday.
Two OF the witnesses swore that the
check, which entered largely into
this case and previous one, was Is
sued IN the early morning, some
where near O'Clock. Mrs. Hagen
swore that Hagen was In bed from
the time he accompanied her home
soon after midnight
There was such a divergence In the
testimony OF the witnesses for the
prosecution and the defense that 1t

were guilty Of the worst kind Of per-
jury. In any event the jury could
not bring in any verdict but that OF
acquittaI, regardless ~ what their
private opinions may have been. So
far as The Recorder Is able TO learn
the spectators at the trial are con-
winged that the witnesses for the
prosecution were telling the truth !;
and while the defense escaped the
penalty OF the law they have not es-
capped the penalty Of public opinion.
