Treweek is Reappointed

Gov. Wesley appointed Nicholas
Treweek, Sr., of Lead, state mine in
spector, to succeed himself. The ap-
pointment has hung fire since last
January, the time at which such ap-
-pointments are usually made by the
governor, but owing to the number Oh
applicants and the inability at that
time on the part of the governor to
distinguish in any one of them quail
ties that appeared to make him more
deserving than the others, the ap-
pointment was deferred.
Among the other applicants were
William Trathen and Robert Dough-
erty Of Lead, and they both had am
pie endorsements. The present in
cumbent, who has been reappointed,
has made a thoroughly competent of.
ficer and this action Of the governor
will doubtless meet with approval.

GOOD STRIKE AT KEYSTONE.
Tunnel by Local Prospect RS
Last Week,

A fine ledge of gold was struck in
the krupp tunnel near Keystone last
week which gives promises of riches
and attendant benefits to the COM
munity. 1t was encountered at a
distance of about 375 feet in the tun-
mel and is of considerable depth so far
rs is now known. Pan tests miscel-
laneously taken have shown good sift-
ings of gold. The ledge is Eerticle
and extends southeast and northwest.
1t is believed to be one of the lodges
that runs through the Columbia and
Bullion properties, and was struck by
I. r. Griffith and E. G. Engle, local
prospectors and operators. A large
part of the tunnel has been dug
through rock and the work has been
hard with very slow progress.
Three hundred feet from the Krupp
tunnel is the Columbia, where work
is progressing and shaft is being
sunk as fast as possible, having now
attained depth of over 100 feet.
They are sinking on a ledge vNi~h
resembles somewhat the Holy Terror
ledge in both formation and character
of ore. The property is owned by
local parties and is being worked by
the Manion boys and Dave Swanzy.
The shaft will be sunk until the
water supply is too great for economi-
cal work, then they intend to drift
along the ledge under Battle creek in
to the Bullion ledge when they ex-
pect to have a good grade of sloping
ore, sufficient to run a mill for sever
al years. The Bullion is owned by
Fred Whitney, Alex Madill and 9TH
ers who are also interested in the
Columbia.
The operators, owners and people
generally about Keystone are feeling
quite jubilant over the prospects, as
it appears quite probable the proper
ties will be in the class of large pro-
ducers. There are other properties
in the vicinity that are being opened
and the success of the Krupp and the
Columbia will put new life into the
work,

CosTLlTTLETo RAISE.

Midland Star: Tom Jones received
a check from a commission house in
Chicago, the first of the week for a
steer that strayed down to the Rose
bud reservation and which netted
him just 5000 with freight and
commission charge Of some So, making
a total Of about ss5. This is not bad
for an animal that never had any
grain and very little hay except when
a calf, and speaks well for the quality
of the native grass.

New St. JOhnSbury Hotel.
Project to Build a 100000 Struc-
ture Will Soon be Made
Public.
st. JOhnSbury Men Will Be'Given an Op-
pOrtunity to Take $4,000 in
StOck-OptiOnS Practically
Secured on the Academy
Property.

1t will soon be determined whether the
rumors of new hotel this village aret
be simply a matter of talk or whether the
village will have a thoroughly modern
up-to-date hotel here costing 100000 or
more. While the men most closely identi-
fed with the project are not ready to
make any public announcement of plans
yet it can be said that they know the
terms on which the property belonging
to the St. Johnsbury academy located on
Main street between the court house and
the South church can be secured as site
for the proposed hotel. The academy au-
thorities have secured the terms on which
it can secure property on the other side
of the street for its use in case it sells the
property it now holds for hotel.
1t can be further stated that certain
capitalists outside of St. Johnsbury
are ready to invest money in the estab-
lshment of a new hotel here if the reope
of the place are interested enough in the
project to help support it. When the pro-
ject is ready they will give St. Johnsbury
people an opportunity to subscribe tor
$4,000 of stock in the new hotel com
pany. This is not a statement of the
management of the project but is astate
ment by the CALIFORNIAN OF what will hap
pen here in due season.

Caught from the Chimney

lanes Manchesters house in McIndoe
Falls was burned Monday night, but
nearly everything in the house was
saved. The chimney burned out about
five O'Clock and they kept watch of it
through the evening but had decided it
was all right. About 9.45 Mr.. Man
chester heard noise and discovered that
the house was on fire. In short time a
crowd gathered but did not succeed in
saving it. J. H. Stuart put in gasolene
engine and pump last summer for fire
protection which saved his house. The fire
engine from Barnet came down but was
too late to save the house. Mr.. Man
chester built new barn recently which
was fortunately a little distance from
the house. The house was insured tor
$1,000.
