superintendent +. III. Hitchcock of
the Searchlight-C Combination, formerly
the Comstock, reports cutting a six
inch vein of extra choice ore. This
property joins the New Era on the
south, and the management holds, for
the amount of work done, that it has
one of the best showings in its dis.
trict.
A depth of 100 feet has been gained
and a crosscut run of about 65 feet. 1t
is planned to continue the latter a
total of 100 feet and then push down
the shaft another 100-foot lift.
An unusual feature of the develop
ment work is the great number of
small feeder veins and seams which
have been cut. These recently have
seldom been over three feet apart and
all nave a common trend pointing to a
punching up at depth. Copper values
at present predominant, assays of this
metal running up to eight per cent.
John M. Taylor, superintendent of the
Santa Barbara Searchlight, arrived
from the coast Tuesday. Unoficially
it is learned that $4,000 has been rails
ed with which to install a custom con
centrator and to purchase ores. The
plan will be to first concentrate and
then smelt the Canyon ores.
M. L. Cook, acting for c. l.. Allison

that the Silver Legion, the company's

Salt Lake City, May 27.-The Her
lar issued by the commissioner of the
general land Office at Washington, and
approved March 9, 1909, contains a
ruling on the Interpretation of the gen.
eral mining laws that is going to throw
confusion and CONSERVATION into the
camps of claim owners seeking to OBJ
tain government patents. The ruling
was sprung on H. s. Joseph, who, as
manager of the Silver Shield c~ompany's
properties at Bingham, has just made
application for patent on a couple of
claims at Bingham.
AS is generally known, when a min
ing claim is located, the notice, to con-
form to the law, must designate a dis
covery point and the course of the lode
or ledge through the claim. For many
years this designation of the lode in
the location notice is all that has been
required of the claim owner in estab-
fishing his right to patent the ground,
other than that mineral and crock in
place. were to be found at the point of
discovery. This formality complied
with, the owner of a group of claims
has been permitted to do the work for
all claims through one tunnel or shaft
which was shown to tend to the devel-
opment of the group.
According to the new ruling, that will
not do in the future. After a mining
claim has beer located, and before the
owner can make application for patent
under the new ruling, as contained III
the section noted, he will be required
not only to prove that a ledge has been

JACK POT COMPANY SURVEYS
BIG GROUP FOR PATENT

United States Mineral Surveyor Clark
and Joe Morris, mining engineer, of
Fairview, arrived here on Thursday
for the purpose of making the final
survey of the eight or ten claims and
fractions of the Jack Pot Consolidated
property, for which the company will
soon make application for United States
patent, saws the Wonder Mining News.
Developments of this property has been
DELAYED since the consolidation on ae-
count of some technical error in the
title to one of the claims. This cloud
has been removed by the attorneys of
the company, and it is understood that
Captain Matson, president of the com
pany and one of the principal stock
holders, intends to put a large force
of men to work on the ground. Early
in March he stated that he did not in
tend to do much work until he was sure
of obtaining patent. Now that this is
assured it is believed that every effort
will be made to open up large ore
bodies on the property so that plans for
the construction of the mill may be
matured as soon as possible.
1t will require several weeks for sur
veyor Clark and his men to complete
the surveys for patent, but this work
should not interfere with active min
ing on the property. 1t is intimated
that some of the officials of the Jack
Pot Consolidated intend to pay an early
visit to the camp for the purpose of ar
ranging for the resumption of opera
tions.

SOUTH WALDEN MURDER
Joseph Paschal in a Drunken Rage
Shoots Neighbo-, Takes to Woods
and Finally Shoots
Himself.

About $50 o'clock Tuesday evening,
August 3. Joseph Pascal. man about
As years Of age, while crazed with
liquor, shot Charles Perkins, aged 72
years, at the home of the latter about
a mile from the little village of South
Walden. Pascal and his brother,
Corliss. secured two quarts of alcohol
the night before and consumed about a
pint, both becoming intoxicated. Joseph
Pascal is known as an ugly character
and particularly savage when he is
drunk. He attacked his wife and she
fled for her life. Tuesday he took his
big 1885 calibre rifle and started out in
pursuit of Mrs. Pascal. Reaching the
home Of Mr.. Perkins, peaceful and
highly respected man, he begun making
a disturbance. Mr.. Perkins went to
the telephone to notify an officer that
Pascal should be arrested. This
angered the man and with the butt of
his rife he smashed five windows and
entering the house smashed the tele-
phone. He then fired at Mr.. Perkins.
the ball passing through the right wrist.
The wound in itself apparently was not
sufficient to cause death and it is sup
posed that the excitement aggravated
a heart trouble from which Mr.. Perkins
had suffered, causing instant death.
Pascal then broke into the room
whereMrs. Perkins, a woman about 70
years old, had been sick in bed for a
week. She succeeded in making her
escape and sought refuge in the hen
house. Later she was found in the
woodshed chamber. Mr.. Perkins sons,
who lived near by, aroused by the noise,
hurried to the scene, and Pascal fired
on them but did not hit them. He
then returned home, secured fresh
stock of ammunition and took to the
woods. Sheriff George F. Winch Of ST.
! Johnsbury was notified, and with
States Attorney r. W. Simonds anC
/ Deputy Sheriff Harman, arrived or
the scene and with posse of so men be
gan searching the woods The funera
of Charles Perkins was held at his hons
| Friday afternoon at l O clock. Mrs
Perkins and the children are bearing
up we'll under the terrible shock of the
! affair."
Within sight of the home Of Charles
Perkins, and on the highest piece OF
ground il that vicinity, the dead body
of the slayer, Joseph Pascal, was founc
! Sunday afternoon by George Haynes
who was out hurting for his cows A
rifle was found at the mans feet with
which he killed himself on Friday eve
ming, probably between and 7 o'clock
the time when the three shots were
heard by neighbors that evening
States Attorney f. w. Simonds, wht
has been tirelessly hunting the trail Of
the murderer since the crime was com
mitted, was at the Perkins home wher
| the body was found and made an ex.
animation Of the remains. The bullet
which caused the drunken murderer:
death was fired into the right temple
and terribly mangled the head, prac
tically blowing the brains out.

Governor Prouty Pardons Lathe.

On August William F. Lathe left
states prison at Windsor a free man,
after having served Il of the 20 years
for which he was committed for assault
with intent to kill Mrs. Geo. Barstow
of Barton on the Oath day of December
1894. He was committed and taken to
Windsor Monday, October 7, 1895.
Many of the residents of the town will
recall how Lathe went to the door of
the Barstow home and knocked. Mrs.
Barstow came to the door and he shot
her, the bullet hitting her but not maxi
ing a fatal wound. She fell and Lathe
shot again but the ball did not take
effect. 1t is supposed he expected to
find money in the house. He then took
to the railroad track and was arrested
near Coventry station by G. c. Grow.
deputy sheriff.
