The American people, whose deli
cate sensibilities have been glutted
with the details Of the lynching and
burning Of negroes, whose love Of jus
tice has been whetted by THE Clans

Johnson-Jeffries fight pictures. The
goody-goody folk for once throw up
their hands in holy horror and say
that this is too much. With licen-
tiousness and crime depicted upon the
stage. written about in books in gen.
eral circulation, with even moving
pictures Of mob operations shown, It
has remained for pictures Of a prize
fight, in no wise different from a hun
dred other fight pictures, to be the
straw that breaks the camel's back.

of this acute race consciousness, we
could laugh. Apparently these pro-

Mrs. Emma Jett, who killed her hus-
band November %. 1909, was tried
last Thursday by the state of Colo
RADIO in the West Side criminal court.
She was represented by the firm Of
Ross & Townsend, who not only Sc
cured her bond, but succeeded in put
ting the case OF for nearly eight
months. Too much credit cannot be
given this firm In the way the case
has been handled and especially
which resulted in her freedom. After
a most thorough presentation and ar
gument Of the case by W. B. Town
send. the jury cast only two ballots,
which resulted In her being sent
again to her home scot-free from all
blame Of the homicide. It was the
talk Of the court attaches Of his mas
terly effort and he was roundly con-
graduated. This is the first murder
case handled by the hrm, which has
reelected great honor on our race.

BRINGS SUIT TO
QUIET TITLE

II. Z. Clark of Goldfeld has brought
suit in the district court against Mar
tin Mitchell, A. A. Carton and G. Z.
Shannon to quiet title to a portion of
the Silver King Fraction at Hornsilver,
the Helen claim being named as con-
ficting. Judge Stevens has granted a
temporary injunction restraining the
defendants from shipping or removing
any ore from the property pending the
hearing to be held August p.
The plaintiff sets out in his complaint
that prior to January l, 1910, he was
the owner of the Silver King Fraction,
now covered by the Helen claim, and
that he made an agreement with Nit
chell to do the annual assessment work
for a quarter interest in the property.
Mitchell, it is set up, started to do
the work, but on the night of Deem
Der 81, 1909, relocated the property
in his name, taking Shannon and
Carbon in as partners. Clark gained
the property by original location.
The property in controversy promises
to be valuable. In fact as develop
ment work proceeds it is proving up to
be one of the richest discoveries made
in the Hornsilver district.

MILL CONSTRUCTION Is
BEING RUSHED AT AUSTIN

AUSTIN, Angus Discrimination
work at the different plants of the Aus
tin Manhattan company during the past
week has moved along at a lively gait.
The carpenter work at the mill is far
enough advanced to accommodate the
machinery and parts of this are now
being installed. The concrete founda-
tions for the heavier parts are well un-
der way and will be ready for the
equipment when it arrives. The great
err part of the electrical portion has
been delivered and all other machinery
for the mill is reported by the railroad
company as being en- route between
Omaha and Salt Lake City. The hoist
ing plants at both the Jack Pot and
Ophir shafts are about in readiness tc
begin operations.

RHYOLITE, August 1I.-Judging
from the results which have attended
the first ten days of operation with the
Hayseed lease in the Lee-Echo district,
another decided success has been scored
for this south country which is gradual
" coming to the front upon its merits
as a producer.
DIR. Harding's venture at the Hay
seed looks like a winner, even at this
early stage of the game. The three
stamp mill, which is located about four
miles from the mine, has been in op-
GRAFTON about ten days, treating ten tons
of GRE per day, and it is reported on
good authority that the plant is making
a handsome saving of values.
DIR. Harding Is depending upon ANAL
gamation only for results, but with this
simple method it is said that he is re-
covering between 20 and so per cent
of the values. The three Nissen stamps
are capable of crushing close to twenty
tons a day, and this tonnage will be
reached in the near future, according
to present plans.
While it is too early to report exact
figures the ore now being milled is
considered nothing short of $50 mate
rial while it's panning features indicate
much higher values. This grade of ore
will permit of a four-mile wagon haul
and return a profit to the leaser.
The Hayseed mine is said to be in a
position to yield a large tonnage OF
profitable ore. DIR. Harding has explor
ed thoroughly the workings at the 100
foot level, where a drift was run nearly
400 feet on the vein, starting from the
incline shaft. Near the end of the drift
a raise has been sent to surface for air
Three distinct shoots of ore are ex
nosed on the level. In addition to thu
ore that is rich enough to send down t.
the mill, there are quantities OF ma
terial running from $40 to $15 a ton
which will pay for milling at the mine
and it is DIR. Harding's intention t.
move the mill to the mine, and perhap
enlarge same, when the operations nov
so successfully launched shall have earn
ed the funds necessary to make tn
move.
The piping of water for a distanc
of four miles is a consideration Il
this move which will require quite
sum of money. DIR. Harding figure
that as an experiment, it is advisabl
to haul the ore to the water wherea
when it comes to a permanent milling
proposition, it is cheaper to pump tn
water to the mine and mill the or
without rehandling. This, of course
Twill require a few months to work out
but eventually it will take place, pre-
vided the project meets no serious dis
appointments.
1t is a matter of speculation among
those who are familiar with the Hay

means to develop the main vein at a
later date believing that it holds the
key to the Hayseed situation as a
large and permanent producer.
It will be remembered that the IN
cline shaft on the Hayseed was sent
down 800 feet, penetrating the estate
of the Hidden Treasure company. AT
that depth the ore was not picked up,
although considerable lateral work
was done. Apparently it was a case
of misdirected energy, or that the
work was not continued far enough, OF
that the ore is not in that part OF the
ground. Had this same amount OF
work been expended upon the big out
crop perhaps the Hayseed would moi
have fallen by the wayside after being
| touted as the biggest thing In the
Funeral range. The failure of thu
work on the 800 level pat a dampel
on Hayseed enthusiasm in these parts

MANHATTAN, August 16.-At the
Dexter directors meeting, held IN Ton
opah last month, the directors unani.
mously expressed their desire to reach
a settlement on all litigation affecting
the company's interests, to work solely
in the interests of the shareholders, and
for the common benefit of the camp of
Manhattan. No salaries will be paid
to any officers of the company until such
time as the conclusion of the company's
treasury will permit, and then only such
reasonable salary to the secretary as
his duties justify. As royalties are re-
ceived they will be applied in payment
of the outstanding indebtedness of the
company. Those holding judgments
against the company agreed to cancel
their Judgments, taking in lieu thereof
the notes of the company, the latter
to be paid as royalties are received.
Since the directors meeting a strong
effort has been made by President Har
ris to secure the consent of the Jump.
ing Jack and Stray Dog companies to
the terms of the agreement arrived at
between the leasing interests and the
Dexter company. To that end, he sub
mitted a proposal to a committee of
said companies that they consent to the
immediate resumption of work by the
%leasers, on the understanding that all
royalties are to be held in trust until
all litigation is settled or an equitable
basis of consolidation is agreed upon.
This proposal was declined by the com
mittee of the Jumping Jack and Stray
Dog companies on the ground that it
would complicate the situation. In
furtherance of a desire on the part of

Decrease in EnqIish Farmino.

In the records of present-day condi- tions of an English village in Somer- setshire, described by Miss M. F. Davis, it is stated that the population had dwindled down to SPA in 1901, which is less than half of the number 70 years earlier, and at present If cottage stands empty it is usually allowed to fall into ruin" Of the 220 households, 57.7 per cent. are classi- fled as agriculturists. It Is further stated that the 165 cottages contain 6S9 rooms and are inhabited by 624 persons; presumably the latter figure is that of the present population, and if so the decrease since the last cen sus is strikingly large. The main part of the land "is now laid down to grass" and of 3,056 acres in 1904 only 512 were returned as arable.-Farm and Home

USEFULNESS OF zoo SIREN
It Calls Keepers to Rescue Marguerite, Virginia Deer, Who Tried to
 Join Elks.

New York-The big siren which was lately installed in the Bronx zoo to signal the keepers the escape of any animal from it's enclosure had its first tryout the other afternoon Keep CTS ran from all directions to find out what was the trouble. Marguerite, one of the Virginia deer. had escaped from her yard and taken with her her fawn, now a sturdy youngster of some six months The chain fastenings on her gate had been left loose and Mar guerita in Investigating it found the way to freedom suddenly opened.
 She found her way into the elk in. closure before the keepers got trace of her. When they found her the big and ugly elk, Stanley, was making great efforts to break down the indi- vidual netting which his temper had earned for him in order to oust the interloper from his herd.
 When they made their rounds next morning the keepers found that a gray fox, sent to them about a week ago from the northern part of the state, was dead. He had been put in a run way in which were several female foxes and a few young ones, all of which owed allegiance to an old dog fox. Evidently the old fellow resented the intrusion, fo the torn-up ground and teeth marks on the throat of the newcomer showed that he had been killed in a fight.
