Death of K. R. Casper.

K. R. Casper, one of the best known
 newspaper men of the coast, died at
 the Beale hotel last Tuesday morning, death being due to opium poisoning. Casper came here representing the Deseret News, the Mormon church or gan of Salt Lake City, one of the best papers in Utah, but did no business owing to getting on a proCracted spree. It would appear that he was addicted to the use of drugs and fail ing to get morphia from the drugstore or physicians secured supply of yen shee from one of the Chinese joints through one of the rounders. This crude drug undoubtedly caused Cas- per's death. A jury of inquisition was empaneled and found that deceased had come to his death by opium pois- oning.
 k, R. Casper was known to many of the old timers of this county, having represented the Mining & Scientific Press in Arizona about twenty-five years ago. He was a bright fellow, a graduate of one of the New York law schools and could have held important positions in the business world had it not been for his indulgence in the flowing bowl. He is said to have been a class mate of Judge Alton B. Parker, of New York.
 His funeral took place from Van Marter and Casteel's undertaking rooms Thursday morning, the body having been held pending receipt of news from relatives or friends of de- ceased.

Perhaps what is one of the most sig nificant developments in the history of the Ludwig mine of the Nevada Doug- las Company has just been registered on the 65O-foot level. This is an en- tirely new ore body running parallel to the chalcocite ore body, 100 feet away, which recently was demonstrated to exist on this same level and after having been developed on the 55O-foot level. The ore body on which the management bas been working for several months past is a chalcocite, and averages 6.5 per cent copper The new ore body is solid chalcopyrite, and assays for the past two days have ranged from S.6 to PA per cent cop per. The mine management is highly elated over this discovery, for it opens a much wider scope of possibilities for the company.-Salt Lake Tribune.
