FOR AN ADEQUATE WATER SUPPLY

Central City, coIo., April IL, 1909.
To all directly and Indirectly In
terested In securing a water supply
for domestic, mining and milling pur-
poses for the mining districts ada
cent to Central City, Black Hawk,
Russell GuIch and NevadavilIe, Colo,
GENTLEMEN:-
In my faithful attempts to secure
the Ions-feIt want Of an adequate
water supply, am now prepared to
state that the feasibility Of the pro-
ject above referred to has been SER
iousIy considered by my associates,
who have assured me their financial
support.
As far as II has been determined
about six million gallons Of water
car be made available, per day Of "a
hours.
For my own satisfaction, and that
Of my associates, It has been sug-
sested that a preliminary outline for
the demand Of such supply should be
arrived at. am writing,
therefore, this general letter to all
who are interested in this important
matter and kindly ask you for an
early reply, In which ! beg you to
express your opinions freely.
To what extent do you believe
would the realization of the antici-
pateo water supply benefit the minin!
industry and the merchants trade in

ACCIDENT IN COOK

j. F. Blalack, miner, was killed
IN the 140O-foot level of the Fisk
stope OF the Cook mine Monday even
ing by the fall of a heavy rock. He
went p'to the stope, which had Just
been opt ned few days before, and
from appearances was Just getting
ready to drill hole when the rock
slab came down. The rock struck
him Of the head and apparently
death was instantaneous. His head
vas crushed but there were no in
jurics about the body
Blalack at the time of the accident
was alone in the stope. The body
was discovered by John Osborn, the
shift boss, who was attracted to the
stope by escaping air. When the
rock fell the hose connections with
the drill Blalack was using, broke.
Osborn notified the rest of the men
working in the mine and they remov-
ed the rock from the dead mans
head.
John Manuel and Richard Champ
ion worked in the Fisk stope but
on the opposite shift to Blalack They
worked Monday and after drilling sew
eral holes, Just before quitting clean
ed the walls of the loose rock. When
they went off shift the stope was free
Of loose rock. 1t seems that the
ground in the stope is loose and
while the walls in a stope may seem
safe, there is danger of a cave-in at
any time.
An inquest was held over the re-
mains of .lalack Tuesday afternoon.
Several witnesses were summoned
and their statement of the accident
tailed with the details given above.
The verdict Of the jury was: I'VE
find that the said j. F. Blalack came
to his death by an unavoidable. ac-
cident"
]. F. Blalack was SO years of age
and had been in the county about a
month, coming here from Decona,
Colo, a coal camp 20 miles from Dem
yer. He was working on contract at
the Cook and was doing well. He
had intended to bring his family to
this city within week or two and
was seeking a house. The wife and
two little girls, one babe in arms
and the other about three years Of
age, arrived from Decona, Tuesday
evening. The funeral was held this
morning, interment in the City cem-
etery.
The death of the husband and
father causes extreme sorrow and the
unfortunate affair presents a very
pitiful phase. 1t is understood that
the man carried no insurance and
had a run of bad luck just before
arriving in Gilpin county and had no
money to speak Of. He was just com
mencing to see the bright side of
things when he met his death. The
funeral expenses will be met by the
Fifty company and the boys at the
mine made up purse for the grief
stricken family.

Would such supply have a ten
dency for an increase In population
for the County Of GiIpin as a whole
and for the towns of Central City,
Black Hawk, Russell GuIch, and Ne.
vadaviIIe particularly?
Replies from mining companies and
mine operators should specifically
state the approximate tonnage Of ore
that each could produce for the mill.
Ing treatment, If the opportunity for
milling is made possible upon their
premises. This means that a $500
Fer ton ore can be converted into a
profitable product, which heretofore
remained in the mines or was con-
sidered waste rock. Would you con-
slider the erection Of milling plant? ?
what capacity per day? Or in other
words, how much water, how many
gallons do you think you would re-
quire? Assuming that each ton of
ore demands about one thousand GAL
Ions of water for treatment in a wet
process mill?
The proposed rate Of water is as
follows:
For domestic purposes, 4oc for each
1000 salIos and for milling purposes,
Csc for each 1000 gallons.
Respectfully yours,
Jno. c. Fieschhutz.

consequently invested with rights of succession to
the crown prior and superior to those of his uncle
That there justification for this belief is shown
by the fact that the father of the present Duke of
Bucceuch discovered among the archives of his
family about fifty years ago document affirming
under the hand of King Charles H. the fact that he
had been lawfully married to Lucy Waters and tha.
the i'll fated first Duke of Buccleuch and Monmouth
was therefore his legitimate and heir The late
Duke, loyal subject of the House of Hanover,
decided that this document ought to be turned
to Queen Victoria. This DONE and the late
Prince Consort in the presence of the Queen and the
Duke, consigned the paper to flames.
OF course if the document had remained in eX1s-
tence, it would not have affected in any way the
rights of Queen Victoria and King Edward to the
throne of Great Britain Their respective succession
thereto and position thereon is based the called
Act of Settlement passed by Parliament in 17cI.
which by narrow ma jority of vote, cast by Sir
Hugh Owen, vested the throne of Great Britain ard
Ireland in the Hanoverian descendants of Kin.
James L. barring therefrom the less remote descend
ants of his son King Charles H.. represented by
Princess Louise of Bavaria and her Prince Rupert
Still it very loyal thing for the late Duke of
Buccleuch to sacrifice this document testifying
der the hand and seal of King Charles H. that he the
Duke, descended in straight line from legtl-
mate, instead of illegitmate, of British
monarch and that the bar sinister had unjustly been
placed upon the armorla bearings of his house which
are those of the reigning family of Great Britain
