DECISIONS THAT

Mining Lease; Significance of
 "Crevice" or Range e''-The word
 Grange as applied to mineral deposlts
 is commonly understood to designate
 large stretch of country, often
 many miles in length and of consid-
 erable width, carrying with some con-
 tinuity or at intervals ore deposits
 belonging generally to the same geo.
 logical stratum. A "creviee" is a
 word sometimes applied to a mineral
 bearing vein; but under the Wiscon-
 sin statute the words "erevice" and
 "range" had a local significance
 limiting the word "range" by its as-
 sociate word "creviee, and taken to-
 gether they were not intended to des-
 ignate a large stretch of country

 intervals, ore deposits and belonging

 Location of Mine; Declaratory
 Statement-A deelaratory statement describing the development work of mine read as follows: "At the point of discovery a cut, the dimen- sions of which are 5 by II feet and 5 feet in depth, along the course of the vein has been run;" and in an amended deelaratory statement it was stated that the locator within 30 days after posting his notice of Ioca- tion "did distinctly mark said loca- tion upon the ground, so that its boundaries could be readily traced, and did dig a cut at the point of discovery of the following dimensions, to-wit: Five feet wide, 15 feet long and 10 feet deep at the fact of the cut" And the notice contained sn- other statement as follows: "At the point of discovery said locator and claimant has dug a cut the dimensions of which are by 15 feet and 10 feet in depth in which is disclosed a well defined vein, creviee or de- posit of ore at a vertical depth of at least 10 feet below the lowest point of the ring or collar of said cut at the face of said cut at the surface" Both the original and amended declaratory statements were filed within the required time after the notice of location was post ed. While these declaratory state ments did not comply technically with the requirements of the statute the court said there was in them at least a substantial compliance, and that this was all that has ever been re- quired.-Butte Northern Copper Co. vs. Radmilovish (Mont.) 1O1 Pac. lO7s; May, 1909. providing that the locator of a min ing claim should post his notice of location at the point of discovery, a locator posted his notice at a differ ent place, but thereafter posted it at .he point of discovery and in an ac- ion by a conflicting claimant and as against his intervening rights, the To- ,ation of the original locator was to the date when he posted ] he notice at the point of discovery, IS the statute required, and where the ocation notice described the vein as north and south, it was held suffi- . ,ient to support location of a claim Northern Copper Co. vs. Radmilovish, ,Mont.) 1O1 Pac. 1O76; May, 1909.

SAD TALE COMES
 FROM MINE CAMP
CFrom Thursdays Daily)

o DdAty
 Pathetic in the extreme is the death of Mrs. G. H. Spencer, the young, woman who took her life a few days ago on Copper creek.
 Surrounded by conditions that are typical of the rough life of the min ing camp, away from places of habi- tation in the rugged canyons of the Santa Maria, isolated in an environ nent that afforded neither comfort nor pleasure to her personal wishes, her mental faculties gave way and in a temporary delirium she drank strychnine and passed out of the world.
 Her purposes to end life were care fully planned and effectively execut- ed On Sunday morning about 7:30 o'clock, she requested her husband to go to the company boarding house for her breakfast, and while he was performing thIs duty, she stepped to the tent table and penned a farewell message to him, and as he was en- tering the place she drank the poison that ended her life.
 As MT. Spencer came through the opening, she pointed her finger to the little table and informed him in 8 pleasant mood:
 "There's something for you"
 Reaching for the small particle of paper that was resting on the table, MT. Spencer instantly realized the horror that faced him and resorted to every means within his power to stay the deadly drug that was visible in the crlel work of life taking. The note MT. Spencer picked up and read was as follows:
 ''I did it myself I think I am go- ing crazy.
 (Signed) "LULU."
 After the horror of the scene was grasped by the husband, he endeavor- ed to administer powerful antidotes to stay the poison, but in his faithful devotion she beckoned him away. She 1 was resigned to the fate and in her death struggles resisted any effort for the administering of antidotes. | In a few seconds after MT Spencer | entered the tent the frightful convul- sions ensued, and in the agonizing i throes that preceded her death, s-e looked complacently and contentedly | toward him. Her end was a struggle | of the most sorrowful and in a few minutes all was over.
 Mrs. Spencer was well known in thIs city and along Copper creek and her death is received by all as a sad bereavement to her husband and her many friends. She was an estimabIe lady and possessed a charming and prepossessing personality. It is said that for several months she has acted peculiarly and it was believed by those who knew her best that her mind was giving way as the result of illness.
 Her remains passed through the city yesterday accompanied by her hus- band. They will be taken to Los Angeles and the body will be ere mated. In life Mrs. Spencer many times expressed herself as preferring cremation and true to her wishes her devoted husband will close her earth ly end in the manner she desired.

After another wrangle of an hour
the council laid the liquor licenses
over again last night and all the sa-
