ssMoth her'o Day.

Through the instrumentality Of Miss
Anna Jarvis of Philadelphia, Pa, last
year the second Sunday in May was OBJ
served or set apart as Mothers Day and
services were held in many churches
and between five and six millions per-
sons throughout the United States cele-
brated the festival. On the second
Sunday in May this year the day will be
observed universally throughout the
land and will be universal fete day for
filial worship. The white carnation has
been selected to be worn in memory of
Mother. Comrades, there is no class of
men living whose mothers were as pat
riotic, loyal and heroic as your mothers
from 81 to '65. No mothers ever
made such sacrifices as your mothers
did, and the Commander in-Chief re-
quests you on the second Sunday in May
to wear in the lapel of your coat white
carnation or other white flowers to hon.
or the memory of your own mother, If
deceased, and in reverence for her if
living.
BY orQef OF
HENRY M. MENUS,
Commander in Chief,
Official G. A. r.
FRANK O. COLE,
Adjutant General.
While this order is issued by the COM
mander in chief Of the Grand Army of
the Republic to soldiers, sailors, and
marines of the civil war, everyone
who has served in this country, either
in America or foreign land, they al
well as every patriotic man, woman
and child can wear white carnation
or any white flower in honor and re-
membrance of the good mothers who
gave their sons in 81 to ,65 to save
this great country Of ours, and we hope
that many flowers will be worn in
Idaho Springs on May 9th.

Mr.. l. Mclean, owner of the Silver
Horn group of claims, located up Ute
creek, has been having the several ore
deposits along the tunnel opened up and
in and all instances there has been a re-
markable showing. Four assays have

the owner that give results of the most
encouraging nature and foretell big
and prosperous mine. These assays
showed respectively IA ozs in gold and
18O ounces in silver; LA ozs in gold
and 3O3 ounces in silver; O.44 OF. in
gold and 63, 60 ounces in silver; % ozs
in gold and lit in silver These were
all taken in different places and some
distance apart. Since these were TAX
en- several other places have been
opened up with corresponding results.
These streaks run from three -fourths
of an inch in width to over six inches.

is termed low grade ore but which is
several fold higher grade than either

streaks widen and increase in value
