The Idaho Springs siftings-news., 1909-07-10

Chas. L. Plummer went to Denver
Sunday afternoon to meet his
daughter, Miss Honor, who has been
visiting for several weeks in Califor'
MIA They expected to come to Idaho
Springs on the late evening train
but changed their minds when they
learned of the washout and came as
far as Golden the following morning
and then teamed it over the noun
tains the remainder of the way.

+ Albro Leasers Lucky.

During the month of June there was
shipped from the Nelson and Johnson
lease on the Albro, forty-five tons
of ore that gave a net average of
little over $500 per ton. The streak
Is from twelve to twenty inches in
width and Is improving in quality. A
practical miner who visited the
working in the lease the first of the
week expressed himself in strong
terms in reference to the excellent
showings he found. Sub-leasers in
other part of the workings have even
a better outlook. There are many
leasers who hesitate to give the re-
suit of their shipments. and yet it is
this kind of news that helps the camp
along. People want to know what
is going on and multiplicity of such
items as this is very appropriate
and helps to show what is going on.
Mr. Adolph Nelson belongs to that
class who do not turn deaf ear to
inquiries regarding mining conditions
and is willing to contribute news OF
this nature for the good of the camp.

During the washout, A E. Straub
has been carrying the mail between
Idaho Springs and Denver and when
he cracks his whip over the horses
he reminds one of the old timers
when the stage coach was looked
for with more envy and veneration
than the vanished cars.

to get any kind of a conveyance and

1t was expected that the work of
putting in the 1860 feet of concrete
walk up Soda creek would begin on
Tuesday of this week but owing to
the failure of the cement to reach
here on account of the damage to
the railroad, the work has been de-
1ayed 1t will be commenced just as
soon as the cement arrives from Col
den. The same cause has delayed
the internal work in the new bath
house as the plasterers have not
been able to get to work. The lath-
ing is practically done and the fellow
who did it is lightning calculator
when it comes to putting on lath.
The sports who went to Denver to
spend the Fourth and Fifth have beer
gradually showing up during the week
and all of them report having good
time regardless of washouts. Some
rode from Golden via the wagon route
while others trecked up the gulch
from one end Of the road damage to
the other, not because they were
broke but for the novelty of the ten
mile tramp.

A portion of the furniture for the
mineral exhibit was received last
week and the remainder would have
been on hand at present had it not
been for the washout. The cabinets.
filing cases and other fixtures will all
be in place just as soon as freight
service is re-established and the com
pany gets around to it. The work
where the furniture was ordered has
been done and the only delay is the
railroad conditions. The finishing
touch in the way of staining will be
done here as it will be the means of
saving money. The committee is do
ing it's full duty through Chairman
Comstock, and Mr.. Underhill is kept
busy giving much of his time in lab
elling and arranging the exhibits. The
community can rest assured that
everything possible is being done
with promptness to carry out the IN
tent Of the Commercial Association.

Ira Pollard has taken a bond and
lease from C. s. Birkins on group
of claims up Virginia Canyon and has
already begun taking out some ex-
cellent grade of ore. Samples of the
ore were brought to this office and
everything indicates paying PROPOSE
ton of large magnitude right from
grass roots. Mr.. Pollard will have
some Denver and Nebraska people in
terested with him in the proposition.
The ore is rich in copper and the
values run high in gold and silver
A large shipment will soon be made
from the surface ores as he and
parties are now working it. Mr.. Pol
lard is man of very extended ex-
perience in mining and is now man
ager of the B. & O. property located
up Virginia Canyon short distance
outside the town limits.

Cloud and Whispering Smith had gone.
and Marion was locking up the house
for the night, when she was halted by
a knock at the shop door. 1t was a
summons that she thought she knew.
but the last in the world that she wanted
to hear or TO answer. Dicksie had
gone TO the bedroom, and standing
between the portieres mat curtained
the workroom from the shop, Marion
in the half-light listened, hesitating
whether 20 ignore or 10 answer the
midnight intruder But experience.

there was only one way TO meet that
particular summons. and that was TO
act, whether at noon or at midnight,
without fear She waited until the
knocking had been twice repeated.

wish to hold over the holidays East
ern demand has largely declined in

unmistakable evidence OF entering the

Three Hundred Industrial Workers Of
World Arrested for Violating Law.

Spokane, Wash. Nov. 12.-F'ollowing
nine days of bloodless warfare between
the city authorities Of Spokane and
fifteen hundred members of the Indus
trial Workers of the World. who are
fighting against the enforcement of an
ordinance forbidding curbstone oratory,
the federal government is now in
VOWED in the affair.
Tkree hundred men are in Jail
charged with violation of the ordin-
ance and because of the crowded con-
dition of the city prison the military
authorities at Fort George. Wash.
where six hundred colored soldiers are
quartered, has given the city permits
sion to use the army guard as a place
for detention. Nearly hundred mem
bers of the Industrial Workers have
been sent to the guardhouse.
The union men have conducted an
orderly campaign and it is admitted
that their only stragetic error was in
starting a hunger strike. Nearly two
hundred of the imprisoned union men
have not eaten for several days, but
the police apparently do not care
whether they eat or not.
