United Verde Largest Silver and Gold
 Mine


 Jerome dispatch says: The United Verde Copper company was the larg- est gold and silver producer in Ari- zona in the year 1908. This informa- tion comes from the best authority possible-T. E. Cambell, Yavapai county's assessor. This production was made possible by the smelling of the large body of oxidized ores tah en from the "glory hole" just south of the U. V. X P. railway depot. This ore was thrown directly into the con- verters as it cane from the mine, it being unnecessary to run it through the furnaces. The production of the United Verde for the past year was 36, lS3, ,OS9 pounds of copper, 494, 4,574.25 ounces of silver, and 2O,334,O ounces of gold. -
 The Jerome district has been a great producer of gold through the United Verde and Equater mines, and with the immense bodies of gold ores blocked out in the Copper Chief, and the showing of gold ores in all pros- poets along her mineral belt, the dis trict will undoubtedly hold it's place as a great gold producer.

''On my honor" he repeated.
Now" said Mr.. Blake, returning;
1T you will kindly come upstairs,

We went up to the living room,
Elizabeth and l very conscious of our
dishabille and inclined to shrink into
dark corners, Gabrielle stalking ma

disapproval written in capital letters
across her back, and indignation hang

plainly unimpressed.
Mr.. Blake handed her a chair with
the same careful courtesy which had
hitherto marked his intercourse with

sat rigidly upright. but suddenly re-

TWO PROMINENT MEN eRUTALlY
MURDERED IN BIG HORN
COUNTY, WYOMING.
COLD BLOoDED CRIME
FIFTEEN MASKED RIDERS ASSAS
SINATE THEIR HELPLESS
VICTIMS.

Basin, Wyo-Big Horn county Is
horrified over the most atroc.ous crime
ever committed within it's borders, and
one OF the most cowardly in the his
tory of Wyoming-the assassination of
Alleman and Joseph Emge, prominent
sheepmen, and Joe Lazier, a herder, by
a gang of fifteen raiders who de-
scended ON the Emge camp on Spring
creek near Tensleep the night OF April
End.
The Emges and Lazier were shot
down in cold blood and the bodies of
Alleman and Lazier We're subsequently,
burned.
Twenty-Five sheep were killed and
$500 hundred head stampeded over the
range, that they might fall easy vic
tins to coyotes and wolves.
The raiders, to prevent the news of
their crime becoming known imme-
diately cut the telephone wires lead
ing to Tensleep. Probably sickening
of their bloody butchery, they spared
the lives of two other heraers who
were at the camp, and these men
brought the first news of the tragedy
to Tensleep, from which place it was
telephoned to Basin, the following day,
after the severed wires had been re-
paired.
Immediately after receipt OF the
news, Sheriff Felix Alston. Deputy
Sheriff Ed Cusack and Prosecuting At
torney Percy Aston made the long
hard trip to the scene and took charge
of the bodies. Six inches of snow,
which had fallen after the murders,
had obliterated the trail of the raiders.
When the raiders, fifteen in number,
all mounted, armed and masked, sud
denly descended on the camp, Alleman
Emge and LaZier were lying down In
a sheep wagon. Joe Emge was on the
ground about twenty feet away. and
the two other herders were in a second
wagon across a gully from the main
camp.
Without warning the raiders poured
a storm OF bullets into the wagon In
which were Alleman and Lazier and
into the body of Joe Emge All three
were killed instantly.
The raiders then assailed the second
wagon, but did not open fire on 1t, and
its two occupants were taken into Gus
tody, driven some distance and turned
loose with instructions to keep travel
ing, nor look behind, and not tell OF
what they had seen. These survivors
lost no time in carrying the alarm to
Tensleep.
After running off the herders whose
lives were spared, the raiders returned
to the camp, poured oil on the wagon
containing the bodies and set it afire.
Both corpses were burned to crisp.
The body of Joe Emge sprawling In
the snow SO close to the burning wa
gon that it was singed, was not moved.
Twenty-Five sneep were killed and the
remainder scattered.
Alleman Emge. owner OF the rafded
camp, until recently was engaged in
the cattle business, but sold out and
invested in sheep 1t is reported that
he was warned he could not run sheep
in the Tensleep country and live, but
he disregarded the warning. The sec
ton where the triple assassination
took place has always been a cattle
country, regarded by the cattlemen as
their own and not to be invaded by
sheep.

CHAPTER xvl.-continued.

Get your watch, advised Gabrielle,
"and your pins and things I've got
all mine in this chamois bag. except
the gold beads; they wouldn't go, so
I'll just carry them. I'm not afraid
but would rather have my things
with me. somehow

uables, and We formed procession
of three and ventured downstairs,
walking softly. as though afraid to dis
turb some one.

found 1t closed and bolted; the win
dows In the hall and living room We're

we found the door to the safe tightly
closed, / was beyond measure relieved,
and almost ready to laugh at my sus-
picions
In the kitchen we found the cellar
door open, and debated whether we
should lock 1t and thus prevent Mary
Anne's return, or wait and greet her
In disapproving array.
Let us listen" suggested Gabrielle.
and sat down upon the top step to
carry out her suggestion.
Then occurred the accident to which
I referred in the very beginning. She
held her gold beads in her hand, and
somehow managed to break the catch
and away they went. We could hear
them rolling down into the cellar step
by step, and Gabrielle was at first
,r-it
ual prepared for immediate action.
I'm going after them" she an
nounced. literally rising to the oc-
casion.
Down there?" shuddered Elizabeth.
'Oh, no! Wait till morning"
Il spent every cent of Cousin Lucy s
check on those beads" said Gabrielle,
folding her kimono about her and pre-
pairing to descend. "and I'm going to
pick them up right away. Wait till
morning, iLleed! You might suppose
they were pebbles"
We sighed apprehensivsly, but pre-
pared to follow our intrepid friend,
feeling that we must share whatever
fate was in store for her, as well as
help collect her property. So We went
carefully down the steps, holding our
candles well before US.
Those miserable beads had rolled
to the most remote places, of course.
and we got so interested in looking
for them we almost forgot to be
afraid
Suddenly, however. Elizabeth gave
= stifled scream. which was more of a
gasp, after all, and shrank back
against the wall.
There is some one in here" she
whispered. Il know it."
How do you know"
Gabrielle tried to speak boldly, but
the hand which held the candle shook
until a little shower OF melted wax
fell upon the floor.
'T was feeling-under the steps,
Nlizabeth found articulation difficult
when touched hair-human hair.
We gazed at one another in abject
terror. unable for the moment to
speak or move: then Elizabeth, whose
nerves were completely unstrung,

going to faint.
