Messrs. Matteson and Short leasers
on the Treasure Vault mine, received
returns for their last shipment on
Wednesday. The shipment amounted
to 4179 pounds which returned values
of % 80 ounces in gold and two and
one-half ounces in silver or a value of

eeived from the Modern smelter for a

be followed up by many more good and
rich shipments as the leasers have a

The man who pays his subscription

the person who borrows the paper or
else lets his subscription run so far be-

he feels the singing pangs of reproach
unless his conscience is SO deadsned
that he has no feelings. He is surely
cheap fellow who will borrow paper
when it would only cost him four cents

thus be independent for this small in

Max Boehmer, prominent mining
engineer and J. F. Vaile, prominent
lawyer, both of Denver, have made nu-
merous visits to this section recently in
the interest Of the Druid Hill Gold COM
pany that own a number of mining claims
and placer between the Sun and Moon
and the Saratoga properties. These
properties will be worked through the
Aduddel lateral that has already been
driven east OF the Newhouse tunnel.
The contract for 100 feet was taken and
pushed to completion by Oscar Jaensen
and at the distance in of 1900 feet from
the Newhouse station will be blasted
out from which an upraise will be made
to the surface. The distance from the
lateral level to the top is about 1900 feet
and the work will be done under the
direction of Mr.. Jaensen. The output
of ore from the Aduddel Searle vein
has been of large quantity, approximat-
ing 81 100000. This was taken out from
shafts and laterals near the surface and
it is expected that with the uprsisiDg
ana OrlVlDS oi leNeiS tue output Will
double discount the former production.
The Church placer is along one Of the
forks of Willis Gulch and is an old one
having the number 416. This work of
driving the lateral has been going on
quietly so that few outside of those en-
ployed in and around the Newhouse have
been aware of the large improvements
thus being made.

Death Under an Ore Wagon.

Death Under an Ore Wagon.
This community experienced another
sudden shock on Thursday morning,
when the news was circulated that Ed.
L. Savage had fallen from his ore wagon
and sustained serious injuries. He was
hauling ore down Virginia canyon from
the Two Brothers, as has been his Gus
tom for months. Two Of his four horse
teams have been thus employed and on
this occasion he was driving the front
team, following few yards behind by
Vincent Forster driving the other outfit.
When they had reached point a short
distance below the Highlander group OF
claims and near the Patten property he
fell off the wagon and from all appear
ances the wheel ran over his right arm,
groins and left leg below the knee. These
parts were terribly mangled. AS soon
as Mr.. Forster saw the accident he
rushed to his assistance but found him
in an unconscious state. He fixed his
body on the ground AS comfortable as
possible and then hastened back to the
Two Brothers to phone to Ogdens barn
for spring wagon and litter. On re-
turning he was met by Mr.. Ira Pollard.
manager OF the Highlander, who had
been delayed in getting out to work and
who assisted materially in careing for
him both on the trip down and at his
home. On the arrival Of the spring
wagon, Mr.. Savage was placed in it and
brought to his home in this city, where
Doctors Morehouse and Fraser we're
Immediately called, but on arriving there
saw that hope of recovery was out Of
the question. Everything possible was
done but he passed away shortly after
two o'clock in the afternoon in a coma
tose state. The accident occurred about
8 o'clock in the morning, or shortly after,
SO that he only survived it about five
hours. He leaves wife and two chill
dren, a young son and daughter. Dur
ing the past twelve years he has been a
resident Of this city, coming here from
Eden, Missouri. Five years ago he was
married to Miss Frances Smith of this
city His parents, brother and two sis
ters live in Missouri short distance from
Kansas City. His occupation was that
OF contractor for hauling ore and he had
given it his faithful attention, his work
meeting with the thorough appreciation
Of those with whom he made contracts.
Ed was a good friend and his premature
passing away will be greatly regretted
by the many with whom he associated.
He was a member OF the Elks, Odd Eel
lows and Maccabee lodges. The funeral
services will be held in the auditorium
of the Elks Club on Sunday afternoon
and will be conducted by the members
of that order. There is peculiar sad
ness in the taking away of a man OF such
strong, robust and active nature. He
was in the very prime of life, or rather
the sunny side of the prime, being only
43 years of age and the very picture Of
manly form and perfect health.

AS development work proceeds in the
upper tunnel OF thu Bronaber group, the
vein is getting wider and of apparently
better quality. 1t shows values of
about s47. The serrated condition Of
the vein shows that the tunnel is on the
apex and that when sinking and drifting
begins the ore body will be more regu-
lar. At some places in the tunnel the
good streak goes above the top, while in
others it goes half way up or comes only
to the bottom and in some places the
apex is below the bottom. The vein is
is strong and with the proper opening
up it will. turn out large quantities OF
shipping ore. AS the breast is advanced
the ore becomes more continuous from
top to bottom Of the tunnel.

clouds overhead and soft footing un-

and the fact that the speed contingent
has enjoyed a busy week since the
snow covered the ground.
There was plenty of snow on the
roads yesterday for those who braved
the murky weather to enjoy a spin.
During the afternoon there were
enough sleighers out to make brush
ing rather dangerous and little of It

the enthusiastic ones out. however,
and whenever the opportunity present

willing to engage in a go, they were
