DUCK SHOOTING ON
OWL CREEK RESERVOIR

There is a move on foot, under
taken by Hugh Crawford and other
local sportsmen to induce the gov
ernment to abrogate the rule prohib-
iting duck shooting on the Owl creek
reservoir. 1t has never been salts
factorily explained just why this
rule was put into effect and it is be-
lieved that IL the proper course is
pursued, it will be possible to have
1t set aside. Congressman Martin
has been asked to take the matter
up with the Washington authorities
and there is probability that his
efforts will be successful.
One of the reasons given for bar
ring duck hunters from the reser-
voir Is that it is desired to reserve
that body of water for a breeding
place, but 1t is doubtful II such a
place is needed in this section. AS
a matter Of fact, ducks are accustom-
ed to do their breeding in places
more remote from civilization and
they might not select the Owl creek
reservoir, even If 1t is thoughtfully
reserved for them. One of the ef-
fects Of the rule is that it makes
poor duck hunting in all other parts
Of the territory adjacent to the res
ervoir. The ducks soon learn that
they are safe there and make 1t their
only headquarters while on their an
nual visit. 1t has been suggested
that the ducks would be better pro-
tected by putting an end to the
spring hunting season, and allowing
their shooting only from Sept. 10th
to Nov. 10th and not bar the hunters
from the only big body of water in
this part Of the country.

FOREST CITY COMPANY
AGAIN OPERATING

The Forest City Mining company,
the owner OF the Clara Belle mine
near Custer is again active and 1t Is
reported that a considerable force OF
men will be put TO work, getting
things in readiness for a continued
period OF development. 1t Is also
stated that the mill will be over
nauled and some needed improve
ments and notifications made.
According to the reported inten-
tions OF the directors OF the COM
pany, they will get in motion with
their work and carry it out con-
tinuously. The fact that the mill is
being put in shape for running, indi-
Gates that they consider the ore sup
ply now in sight sufficient to main
tain a steady run, but it is also
known that they have in mind very
extensive system OF development, be-
Ileying that ore bodies Of greater
size than those now opened up, will
be encountered. The Clara Belle has
produced some of the richest free
gold ore ever taken from a Black
Hills mine there is reason to be-
leve that still richer ore will even
tually be opened up.

Mrs. Elizabeth Trisler.

Mrs. Elizabeth, Trisler mother OF
Orrin Trisler of this city passed
away Wednesday evening at Rapid
City of general debility, aged rs
years.
The funeral took place yesterday
afternoon at Spearfish, Mr.. Trisler
going over this morning to attend
the services.
Concerning Mrs. Trisler, the Rapid
City Journal says:
After months Of intense suffering
Mrs. Trisler PASSED to her reward
Wednesday night at about ten o'clock
having lived well spent life, devot-
ed to caring for her own family and
doing for others as occasion made
possible.
Elizabeth Virginia Trisler was
born in Brown county, Ohio, Sept.
IA, 1886. She was the Oldest in a
family of six, having four brothers
and one sister. She was married in
Ohio, in 1861 and raised a family of
six children, all of whom are still
living. They are Mrs. Howard
Worth, of this city: Mrs. G. w. Lam
bert Of Spearfish; Mrs. Charles Hol-
loway Of Corona, Cal. Mrs. William

father.
Mrs. Trisler has been an invalid
for the past eight or nine years and
for the past three years her children
had her cared for at the home of
Mrs. ella Twombly, who nursed her
with much care and tenderness. She
was lovable woman and the writer
knew her we'll, meeting her in her
home below town twenty-eight years
ago. They came to sRapid City in
1880 and a kinder, more tenden
hearted and motherly woman never
lived. In the early days she went
often to care for the sick, going in
all kinds of weather, and never for
the money that might be in 1t. To

why the close of her own life should
have been filled with so much suf-
fering, though in the mercy of Prov
ldence she did not realize it in its
fullness. To her the summons. "The
master is come and calleth for thee"
was a welcome one, and her reward

THE TOILER AND

heard the poet say: 'The dreamer
lives for ever, and the toiler dies in

ius and charmed by his sweet re-
train, said: II will cease to labor,
ror labor imparts pain; afar to the
land Of lotus on shimmering dreams

Then up spake my Aunt Eliza and
this was her message: Rats! The

awhittling a hemlock club and his
wife is bearing burdens or laboring
at the tub. The toiler is earning
money as he journeys his useful way
he's putting away bundle for age
and the wintry day. The dreamer is
writing verses on mermaids, and

ATTEMPT TO CRACK

! At 1 o'clock this morning burglars
made an unsuccessful attempt to
crack the safe in the office of the
Armour Packino company on Sher-
man street opposite Wall street. The
attention of Police Officer Buss was
attracted to man in the Office at
that hour, but at first he thought the
bookkeeper was working late. The
fact, however, that one of the cur
tains appeared to be torn, aroused
his suspicion and when he reached
the glass door, leading to the office,
the appearance of the interior of the
office revealed the fact that an at
tempt had been made to rob the safe,
the outside door of which had not
been locked. The burglar, who had
effected an entrance through a win
dow, left by the same route, when he
heard the officer approaching.
The cracksman was not provided
with a high class burglar outfit, but
had been working on the inner door
Of the safe with ordinary chisels
which bore the Northwestern rail-
road mark and were left behind
when he took fight. The burglar
secured nothing of value from the
safe, but appropriated some clothing
that was hanging on the wall. II
was evident that he had attempted
to lower the curtains, before COM
mencing his work and had tori
down one Of the curtains, in his eag-
erness to cut off detection. He also
damaged the telephone, which was
found to be out of order, when an
attempt was made to notify Manager
Raymond Walker of the burglary.

Terazas, whereby the latter agreed
to furnish necessary money to de-

gan at once, sinking shaft under
advice Of Engineer Maurice Cooke

The shaft was sunk to a depth of 283

was found with four feet of 180-
ounce silver ore.
In connection with the above it
may be stated that the Promontorio
company, owners of the adjoining
mine, sunk a shaft about $50 feet
on their line, which gave the same
grade of ore as the recent lucky
strike of the Buen Pastor. This being
established, the Buen Pastor COM
pany is assured of a block of ore,
$4,000 tons, which, on a very rea-
sonable estimate, will leave profit of
Of 100 pesos per toni, or total of
$3,5OO.OOO.

j. j. OINAS INCINERATED.

Custer Chronicle.-Thursday morn
ing Helmar Bostrom of Four Miles,
came to town and informed Coroner
McFadden that during the night
Jake Oinas' cabin had been de-
stroyed by fire and explosion and his
body incinerated. Deceased was
about 40 years of age; native of
Finland. He has resided in this vi
cinity several years, as a miner and
prospector. This is said to be the
fourth time his cabin has burned
when he was notwithstanding res
cued by neighbors heretofore.
Coroner McFadden summoned a
jury and took them out to Four
Mile, to examine the ruins. The re-
mains were brought to the court
house, where an inquest was held.
Four witnesses were examined. We
give the essentials points in testi-
mony of two:
John Bostrom: That he was at his
home on the ranch yesterday even
ing; that he is acquainted with the
deceased! that he saw deceased at 8
o'clock p. mf that We met in Custer
and he rode out with me to the
ranch; that they went into the house
and had supper; that he remained in
the house till bedtime; that he went
to the cabin belonging to him and
near my house where he had been
making his home; that he said he
was going to bed. That Mrs. Bos-
from heard an explosion about II
O'Clock p. m. and she awoke me;
that l hurried out partly dressed and
saw the ames; that then Helmer
Bostrom and Walter Fink came:
that the heat was too great to 20
inside; that the deceased was a min
er and in the habit of using powder
and caps and some was stored in
the house at the time; that no one
slept there but the deceased; that
the remains found l am satisfied are
the remains of the deceased, John
Jacob Oinas; that the deceased was
in the habit Of getting intoxicated;
that he had been drinking and also
had a quart bottle of whiskey with
him; that all his property was in the
cabin at the time Of the fire; that he
had no other property, that his faith
er now lives in Finland.
Fred Russell: At 2 D. m. Wal
ter Fink woke me up and went
over to the cabin at Bostrom's and
that the cabine was afire; that re-
mained there till morning and that
the fire was all out at a. M; that
found the body in the southeast
corner Of the cabin after the fire was
out; that no one occupied the cab
in but the deceased; that I stayed
there with the body until the Coron-
er came; that I am sure that the
body is the body of John Jacob Oinas
and that I am familiar with the hab-
its of the deceased; that I saved him
once before from a similar kate;
that he was face down in the cor
ner and was burned beyond recogni-
ton, when found.

CATTLE SHIPMENTS
ARE BEING RESUMED

The rain storms of ten days ago,
so flooded the country in the vicinity
of Belle Fourche and to the north.
that the streams were swollen and
the cattle men found it impossible to
get their stock into Belle Fourche,
although they were anxious to get
to the eastern markets and the
Northwestern railroad was working
every known scheme to provide them
with cars. The result was that ship
ments were suspended for the time.
Conditions are again normal and
the stock is now coming into Belle
Fourche in large. numbers. Three
hundred cars have been ordered for
the next few days and railroad offic-
ials say they will be able to meet
the demand. There appears to be no
indication of the shipments ceasing
for several weeks and It will require
the best efforts of the railroad to
keep the stock moving to the east,
as fast as It is delivered at the ship
ping point.

NEW MINING COMPANY
IN ROCKFORD DISTRICT

The Rockford district is at present
attracting more attention than al
any previous time in its history and
this condition is in large part due
to the men who have interested them
selves in the Ray Mining company
which is now engaged in developing
one Of the most promising prospects
In the camp and one that promises
to create an excitement of a sensa-
tional character, owing to remark
able discoveries which have of late
been made there.
The latest undertaking of the
Ray people has been the work of
H. A. Thompson and Leroy Baker,
who have interested a party of st.
Louis capitalists in piece of
ground, almost adjoining the Ray,
which has been put into a corpora
tion to be known as the st. Louis
Gold Mines company. The ground
acquired is composed of five claims,
located by Harry Day, by whom they
have been turned over to the COM
pany. They are situated about one
and half miles east Of Nahant. The
incorporators Of the company are all
men Of ample means who can read
ly supply the capital for carrying
out the plans of development decided
upon.
The surface outcroppings show a
quartz ledge about 60 feet in width
which has been to small extent
prospected by shallow shafts, many
Of which are said to have been sunk
by regiment of colored cavalrymen.
who passed through that country
twenty years ago. They were prob
ably attracted by the fact that most
all the quartz prospects in the pan
and assays recently made Of ore TAX
en- from numerous points along the
outcrops, returned values of from
$3.50 to s21 in gold. There are also
number of parallel veins, which |
will probably run into the main ledg-
es at depth, giving the ore body a
width of from 400 to 600 feet.
The funds for commencing work
have been subscribed and operations
are expected to commence immediate
ly. There is on the property good
tunnel site, where the formation can
be cross cut and the ledge tapped
at depth Of about 200 feet below
the apex, by driving the tunnel not
much over 100 feet. According to
present arrangements, work will
be commenced at this point and af-
ter the vein is encountered. it will be
irifted upon in both directions, in
order to determine its extent and to
arrive at an accurate estimate of its
average value.

per ton, IL coal can be secured at not
more than $4 per ton, has given rise
70 the question of the possibility OF
getting a railroad into that camp.
under the present conditions, which
would require a wagon haul of about
i've miles from Blacktail or four
miles from Crown Hill 1t is estimat-
ed that coal could not be gotten in
to the camp for less than $3.50 or
$500 per ton. Although the value
of the Carbonate camp ore would
doubtless stand coal cost Of this
figure, nevertheless, it is generally
conceded that the building OF rail
road into the camp could be accom-
plished at 30 moderate cost, it
would be advisable to wait until
such a road is reality in order to
save the profit which would be lost
with coal at the high price mention
ed.
1t was but few years ago that
there was talk Of railroad building
into Carbonate and at that time the
Burlington made a survey of the
route and an estimate Of the cost.
Their engineers reported that such a
road could be constructed from
Crown Point and that 1t would re-
quire not more than three miles of
track. This they figured, could be
constructed for about $4,000.
1t is regarded as certain that un-
present conditions. with the pros
pect of resumption of operations In
the camp on permanent basis, the
Burlington would show no hesitation
In constructing the proposed road
and that II the matter was taken up
with them Immediately, they would
be running into the camp by the
time coal and other supplies would
be needed there in large quantities.
The details Of the newly devised
smelling process Of the Colorado Me-
tails Reduction company have not yet
been received here, but the company
will have issued by Oct. 1st a pam
phlet explaining in full the features
Of their process and copies of 1t will
be sent to Black Hills people inter
ested in the matter.

LEASE STAMPEDE
AT CRIPPLE CREEK,

CRIPPLE CREEK, Colo, Sept.
30.-With but nine superintendent
of big mining companies owning dis
trict property interviewed, it is
learned that 4S new applications for
leases had been filed since the an
nouncement of the United States Re-
duction and Refining company's big
cut in ore treatment charges, and
the holdings of these nine corpora
tions represent less than II per cent
of the ground in that section of the
district known as the mineral belt.
To place the present number of ap-
plications at 200 in covering the en-
tire camp would be conservative, as
mining men declare they are be-
sieged by men after leases, and at
this time it is predicted that the re-
duced treatment rates will result in
an ore tonnage increase of at least
10 per cent before expiration Of 80
days.
