Rogue River courier. (Grants Pass, Or.) 1886-1927, 1909-09-24

Last Sunday afternoon runaway
occurred which was exciting in the
extreme and might have proved fatal
to those in the carriage. Four
Grants Pass young people, Messrs
Carl Gilette and Clifford Dean and
Misses Patti Gray and Nora Morri-
son were on picnic excursion when
one of the singletrees broke and let
the tongue drop, the tugs came loose
and the horses ran for about 100
feet, pulling the surrey by the bits.
The young people borrowed the
necessary tongue and singletrees
from a farmer and in coming home
in the evening the horses ran out of
the road, over stump, and another
smash up was the result. The boys
managed to fix things up in shape
SO that they were able to return
home, but with their carriage in
rather a dilapidated condition. No
one was hurt.

6 YEAR OLD BOY KILLED

over the child's left thigh, ribs and
side OF his head, crushing the little
body into shapeless mass. Miss
Lucille McCroskey was in front of
the Moss residence and saw the boy
standing on the brake and she could
hardly tell just what happened but
supposed he missed his footing and
went down under the wheel. Other
ladies also saw the accident and Mrs,
w. II. Pattillo, who lives opposite
the Moss residence. ran over and told
Mrs. Heberlie what had happened.
Mrs. Moore, who was also near, ran
out and taking off her apron, cover
ed the little body with it. Some one
telephoned the coroner, Or. Fredk.
Stricken, that child had been hurt
and 1t being a hurry-up call he ran
down to the place, but Mrs. Heber-
lie had arrived first and had the form
in her arms and was carrying it away
when the doctor reached the spot.
Investigation showed that 1t was
purely accidental and the coroner
decided that an inquest was un-
necessary.
Mr.. Heberlie was on the south
bound train, No. 10, with his cousin,
John Grifford, returning from the
Seattle exposition, and when he
reached Merlin he met Dick Bland,
who told him that his boy had been
injured by dray but did not tell
him that he had been instantly kill
ed, and II was not until his arrival
here at 10:45, five hours after the
accident that the horrible truth was
made known to the father.
This Is one of the saddest acci-
dents that ha secured In our city
for many years and the shock to the
community was depressing In the ex-
treme. Little Louie Heberle was G
years months and day old at the
time Of his death. He was not only
the idol of his father and mother, but
was favorite with all who knew
him. The drayman who told the
story to the Courier said that he was
the sweetest child that he had ever
seen and his grief was evident as he
related the circumstances of the ac-
cident, The men on the dray did
all in their power to avert an ac-
cident and the people who were near
testified that they were in no way
to blame.
The people of Grants Pass extend
their sympathy to the stricken father
and mother
The funeral will take place from
the family residence at 1890 on
Saturday morning, and will be con-
Quoted by Rev. Robt, Mclean, of the
Presbyterian church. The interment
will be in the Odd Fellows cemetery.

THE Chief PETTY
OFFICERS DANCE

Honolulu lovers Of good times are
wearing broad smiles since the an
nouncement that the Chief Petty Off
GERS of the Pacific Fleet are going to
give another of their famous dances
in Honolulu.
This will be the fourth event of
the kind given by these good fellows
here, and like the three previous ones
will be given at the Young, both pavi-
lions being used for dancing.
The affair will be invitational of
course, invitations being sent out
yesterday and today reading as fol-
lows:
"The pleasure of your cmpany is
requested at the Fourth Annual
Dance to be given by the Chief Petty
Officers of the Pacific Fleet at the
Alexander Young Hotel, Friday Even
ing, October list, 1909, at o'clock"

aifr-and who does not, who was so
fortunate as to be there will turn
out tomorrow evening to make this
years affair an even greater success
than the last one and Honolulans
will live in hopes that the fleet will
be with us again a year from now and
that they will receive an invitation
to the Fifth Annual c. P. o. Dance.

act as trustees for the Indians, and
the receipts from the sales go to the
Indians of the tribes whose reserva-
lions are sold off.
Aside from the rush system and
the drawing method, Judge Witten
says there is only one other feasible
plan of conducting a big public land
opening, viz to require applicants to
stand in line before local land Of
flee, and file their entries in the or
der in which they gain admission.
The folly of this method, when ap-
piled to a large opening, he declares,
is too apparent to need discussion.
This method might be followed where
there are % or so entries to be made
but where there are thousands of en-
tries involved, it could not humanely
be done. Had that plan been tried at
Occur d'Alene, thousands upon thou
snds of people would have been forced
to stand in line before the land Office
day and night, for perhaps weeks be-
fore the last entry was disposed of,
have been obliged to file more or less
blindly, and to go Immediately upon
their land.
All in all, Judge Witten believes
the drawing or lottery system IS the
best sy stem ever devised for conduct
ing public land openings, and the one
least subject to fair criticism. He
admits that much poor land is dis
psed of at every big opening, and that
vast quantities of land that would
stand idle indefinitely were it open
pubic domairf is taken up in the
rush and excitement. But that is
condition which can not be avoided,
no matter how the lands may be
thrown open The very fact that there
Is an opening creates the opinion in
the public mind that the lands are
than ordinary valuable, and for this
popular illusion the Department con-
tends it is IN no way to blame, 1t
never undertakes to induce any one
to take up such lands.

COAL GREAT NEED
Of MERCUR CAMP
Consolidated and Sunshine
Mines May Have to Re-
duCe Production.

Consolidated Mercur and Sunshine
Mining companies, at Mercur, were
yesterday threatened with enforced re-
auction Of output on account of the in
ability OF the railroad company to de-
liver coal at the mines. The two min
ing companies have twenty carloads of
coal IN transit from Rock Springs, all
of the cars having reached points be-
tween Ogden and MerCur, and all of
them have apparently been laid out by
reason Of the cold weather having re-
duced the railroads hauling capacity.
The supply of coal at Mercur was yes
terday about what would last through
the day, so that unless one of the de-
layed cars was pulled in last night the
rOasters in the mills will have to be
closed down. In such event only the
Oxidized ores can be treated.
The MeTCur mines are having addi-
tiOnal trouble on account Of the freez-
ing of water in pipes and tanks-a re-
suit of the continued cold weather.
With the ordinary cold snap of day
or two, followed by thawing tempera-
ture, no difficulty is experienced from
this source; the present cold spell has
been unusual in the length Of time
freezing temperature has been main

PROVO ORE BODY IS
HIGH-GRADE LEAD
First Results Obtained by
SampIing Ore Casing,
Says Visitor.

mat the new strike in the Provo
mine, in East Tintic is much better
Vhan at first reported is the word
brought from camp yesterday by J. B.
Caldwell Of the Rio Grande offices of
lhls city, who had been looking after
developments in the Wicklow property.
IN winch ne is heavily interested.
Inc showing on the 3O0-foot level of
the Provo Wnen he was in the mine
MONDAY, Nh. Caldwell said, was at
Iedst SIX feet of clean ore CARRYING
values OF 80 per cent lead and six ana
seven ounces Of silver to the ton. And
e nc, Is'ce Oh the crosscut was yet in the
nlsn grade ore The report given out
d lew days ago was that seven feet
OF ore gave average values. of 30 Der
cent lead, Swing rise to the conclusion
tlat the ore in the Provo is not so
nlsn-sfade as is that in the East Tin
TIC development mine, adjoining. That
result was obtained, Mr.. Caldwell
learned, by sampHng several feet OF the
ore casing along with the high-grade
material.
A winze which is being sunk from
Inc l6O-foot level to prove the ore body
Is IN material of about the same grade
as that which has been opened on the

The wicklow company owns a large
group of claims adjoining the Provo
and Eureka Lily on the north, and Mr..
caldwell says that the group contains
extensions not only of the ore zones in
those properties, but of that of the
IlnUc Standard as well. A drift which
IS pelng driven for one of the big ifs.
sures is now in highly mineralized ma
terlaL with every indication that it is
approaching an ore body. Mr.. Caldwell
and his associates have no doubt that

ground.

SEES GOOD MINES
IN NEVADA CAMPS
Those of TOn0pah, GOIdfieId,
Round Mountain and
Good Springs Worthy.

While the mining camps Of southern
Nevada are quiet so far as the ope-
rating of small properties is concerned,
the big mines of Goldheld and Tonopah
.-Goldheld Consolidated and Tonopah
Mining-are making remarkable rec
ords, according to Harry S. Joseph,
who has just returned to the city
after having made a tour of a number
Of the districts to look after the per-
forming of annual work upon proper
ties in which he is interested.
The ore body in the ClermOnt shaft
of the GOiddeld Consolidated is a pipe
forty feet wide, forty feet thick and
800 feet Ions" said Mr.. Joseph. 1T is
entirely independent of the Mohawk
ore shoot. Picture values of almost
any size desired may be obtained from
it, and 1 was told that the average is
something like 5000 a ton.
Production from it is limited to the
tonnage required TO 'sweeten' the ore
which is sent to the mill. 1t appears
to be an easy matter to run up the
mill average. The policy is to keep that
average close to $50 a ton, and 1 saw
the returns for twenty days, which
showed an average of $3.50 a ton.
The bulk of the tonnage sent to the
mill runs between $40 and $40 a ton.
the mill is treating ZOO tons a day, with
the tonnage made up in proportions
required from the Mohawk, RedtOp and
Combination Fraction workings. With
Chilean mills installed it is expected
to increase the tonnage to 900 tons a
day. The Florence mine is likewise

MUSGROVE mine
HAS ORE At DEPTH
Catching Fissure on 300-Foot Level
Relieves Suspense of
Management.

Encountering the vein on the 300-fOOt
level, where is a showing Of quartz ap-
parently as good as that above, has re-
solved almost to a certainty the prospect
of making a paying mine in the property
of the MusgrOve Mining company, near
Salmon City, Ida. The company is con-
trolled by A. II. Brown and associates of
this city.
Development of the MusgrOve mine was
until recently confined to the 150-fOOt
level and above. There was opened 120
feet on its strike an ore shoot three feet
thick which shows average values in gold
and silver close to so a ton, returns from
one rigid sampling Of the entire body hav-
ing been a little below that figure, while
another gave returns above 81.
The lower tunnel, on what is called the
300 level was driven some distance on
a fissure which was believed to be the
main vein, but ore was not encountered
where it should have been found, Re
Gently Mr.. Brown made a survey, when
his measurements showed that the main
fissure Should be "a feet east Of the one
on which the tunnel was driven. A cross
cut was run over and the vein, carrying
the IOOked-fOr ore, was encountered in
Just "a feet
With drifting on the 800 level proving up

RYE PATCH OLD WINE
SHOWS GOOD VALUES

The lower tunnel in the property Of the
Rive Patch Consolidated Mining company
should have only from eight feet to pos
sibIv 10 feet further to run to enter the
Silver Bell fissUre is the report brought
from camp by W. A Ray. When the
tunnel reaches the fissUre it viii be not
far from the Borland stOpe, where was
an immense chamber of high-grade ore,
mined in the early days to a level about
so feet above the lower tunnel. Experts
who recently examined the mine found in
an old tunnel some distance back from
the face Of the new tunnel and on the
Silver Bell fissure, five feet of clean ore
which returned values Of $45 q ton. The
tunnel has for some distance been fol-
lowing a good fissure which evidently
leads to the main vein, the ore it carries
running 50 to So a ton.
