MUNICIPAL WOOD YARD.
Minister'S Suggest How City Can Re
lievc Distress.

ogden, Jan. THE Ogden Minis
tefia association held its first meeting
yesterday for this year. Besides consid-
ing various church matters. the follow
ing resolutions were unanimously
adopted
1T being set forth that there are
many unemployed In Ogden and that
there is much distress as conse-
quenee, and as 1t has been suggested
by some that the association of Ogden
churches and ministers should take
some action looking toward relief, we
recommend.
That the mayor of the city instruct
the police to make a thorough inves-
tigation as to the number of the I'M
fortunate ones and IL the alleged con-
ditions really exist, we suggest,
"Eirst-That as the suffering is
largely due TO the saloon and gam
Bling houses. which have received a
large share OF the earnings of these
men, and as the city receives O. larxe
support from the said institutions, the
responsibility for the conditions be-
longs there rather than upon us.
"Second-That part of the revenue
thus derived should be used for the
yard, where enough employment may
be secured to insure food and lodging,
the support of which win be met In
part by the sale of wood to private
parties.
"Thlrd--That the supervision of the
woodward be vested In the police de-
partment of the city,

new Mining DISTRICT
IS CHRISTENED JESSUP.
At a ROusing Mass Meeting Held Last Saturday
New District Is Organized and Recorder Sc.
leCted-..-Big Rush Continues and Several
New Strikes Are Reported.

Jessup, the new mining district 80
miles southwest of Lovelock, contin-
ues to be the center of attraction
for the prospector and investment
seeker. and during the past week the
influx of people has been much larg-
er than anytime since the big rush
was started. That the new district
will make good and will sooner or
later occupy prominent position in
the ranks of Nevada's great gold
producing camps. is evident from the
good reports that are coming in and
from the numerous big strikes that
have lately been recorded.
The citizens of the new section
are keeping abreast of the times,
characteristic of Nevada's bustling
camps, and haye organized a new
mining district. The organization
was effected last Saturday at mass
meeting held for that purpose. Prac-
tically every miner and prospector in
the district attended the meeting. 1t
was unanimously decided to christen
the new district Jessup, in honor
of Frank Jessup, one of the original
locators. E. n. Francis was elected
district recorder, Charles Murray
was elected chairman and Mark Brad
shaw was named as secretary.
White Canyon, the only town in
the district, is growing rapidly and
is early assuming metropolitan airs.
The new town now boasts of two res
taurants, bakery, lodging house,
three saloons, general merchandise
store and corral and feed yard.
The first lots were placed on sale the
fore pare part of this week. They
are selling at $75 each and it is re-
ported that quite a number have
been sold. Preparations are being
made to erect several substantial
buildings and in a short time the
tent, which marks the incipiency of
a new town, will be relegatated
to make room for modern structures.

Among some of the newest strikes
that have been made in the district
are those on the Coming Heir, the
Portland and the Opperman. Van
Valkenburg properties.
On the Coming Heir, which is own
ed by Frank Bird of Vernon, 30
foot ledge outcrops quite prominent
ly. From sample taken at the sur
face, the assay returns showed gold
values to the tune of $18. The
Coming Heir was located last Satur-
day and so encouraged was Mr.. Bird
over the results of his assays that he
has decided to commence develop
ment work at once. He left this
morning for his property and ex-
poets to start work on shaft next
Monday.
Tom Frazier, who owns the Port
land group, located about a mile
north of the original strike, also has
an extraordinary showing. On the
Portland No. 3 three and a half
foot ledge has been traced for a dis
tance of 1000 feet. Two hundred feet
of this ledge has been sampled by the
panning process and the results are
very encouraging.
Work was recently started on the
Hopkins property and at depth Of
a very few feet in the shaft which is
being sunk on the footwall side of
of the big ledge. an eight-inch pay
streak VAS disclosed The character
of the rock is identical with that
fonDd on the Jessup-Murray proper
ty and the gold values are said to
run better than $3.50 to the ton.
F. H. Van Vslkenburg, William
Opperman and T. Cruise who own a
group of claims short distance west
of the Jessup-Murray strike. left this
morning with full supply of tools
and provisions. These gentlemen
will do considerable trenching and
when desirable place is located a
deep shaft will be sunk.

COPPER KETTLE
PROPERTY SOLD
English Syndicate Takes Over
Group of Claims.
District Located About Thlrty.FIve
Miles Southeast Of LOveiOCk.---
Strong LedgeS and Immense De-
pOSltS Of Copper Ore Exposed.

That the Copper Kettle section'
about 30 miles southeast of Lovelock
is soon to undergo thorough course
of development and the big lodges
in that vicinity extensively prospect
ed seems now a foregone conclusion.
This week deal was consummated
whereby syndicate Of English cap
talists acquired the properties of
Bunch & Mcintyre, consisting of ten
claims for a consideration of $3.50.
600. The payments are to be made
in four equal installments and are to
cover the period of one year.
Included in the deal was a group
of fourteen claims owned by Charles
Carpenter. Charley Bayea. James Col
lins and A. P. Kensler. These claims,
with the Bunch & Mcintyre interests.
will give the English company a solid
group of twenty-four claims in the
heart of the richest section OF the
Copper Kettle district.
The district Is noted for its strong
ledges and mammoth deposits of the
red metal. Assays as high as 70 per
cent copper have been obtained on
the claims and large bodies Of ores
of lower grade are much in evidence.
Representatives of the new com
pany are now making arrangements
to develop the properties on large
scale and operations will be watched
with keenest interest.
1t is confidently predicted by min
ing men who are conversant with
conditions existing in the Copper
Kettle country that many surprises
are in store for the general public,
and that development will show the
district to be one of the most pro-
ductive sections in the state.
