Night coming Oh they arranged to make
themselves comfortable and next morn
ing. their boat still being out of COM
mission and knowing hat their families
would arrive that day, three of the
party. VIM. Buras, Tim Bonner and
Chas. T~ackaberry, proceeded to try to
reach the river by land. After walk
ing some distance they fell into musk
rat holes and walking became very diff
ticult. The further they went the more
determined they were to get to the end
as return seemed impossible. The ia
tigue and heat Of the moor sun now be-
gan to tell and after walking what they
supposed to be several miles, they came
to a large stream which they could
neither wade or swim. In utter de-
spair they concluded to return to the
boat. which was some miles behind
them. In the struggle which followed.
each man shifted for himself and the
task proving beyond Donner's strength
he became exhausted and was left be-
hind by the others who themselves were
barely able to reach the boat. After
making a vain search for their lost cOm-
panion. the party retired for the night
on their boat and determined next nor .
ing to make a start for the river, Their
engine in the meantime having been
put in order. Reaching the Myrtle
Grove Canal Monday morning, the news
of Donner's plight was quickly convey
ed to everyone, Sheriff Movers being
among the first to get in touch with the
situation. The Sheriff promptly left
for Socola and DOulluts Canals where
he began organizing searching parties
composed of fishermen and trap
pcrs who were familiar with the Grand
Lake territory.
1t was the party in charge of Steve
Gillen Of Algiers, to which fell the good
fortune of finding the missing man. On
Tuesday at II O'Clock H.. after repeated
firing Of guns the party heard the fee
bic calls of the poor fellow, who, upon
recognizing one Of his townsmen, ex-
claimed. THANK God | am saved
A special train was hurried to Soco!a
Canal Tuesday night and Bonner was
speeded home to his anxious wife and
relatives, all of whom had abandoned all
hope of seeing him alive again.
From latest press accounts, Bonner
is doing nicely, having been placed or
a milk diet on account of the effects OF
salt water drinking.

UNITED VERDE Is
 USING OLD TAILINos
trrom Thussaay's Daily,

Daily car load shipments from the old tailings dump of the Henrietta mine, on Big Bug, arc going to the United Verde, to be used in lining the converters at their smclters.
 The tonnage is estimated at 20,- 900. and is the accumulation of sew eral years of mill operations from that mine. In utilizing this product the United Verde has secured one of tho best product. available in the county, the output carrying, it is said, es per cent of silica, while gold val. ues are estimated at an average of si per ton, some of the yield going as hign, however, as SC per ton.
 The gold values are saved through their application in the converter ser vice. and reach the copper ingots in the course of treatment of the red metal. Various estimates made in tho gold values from this big accumula ton reach as high as $l00,ooo, whicf will give some idea of the vast rev enue that will be restored throug' this process of promoting shelter pro duction.
 The tailings banked at the ol' mine cannot be treated through tn cyanide method, owing to the heav' cost that would accrue in the pro cess. while another objectionable fes ture is the neavy percentage of silic contained. In conjunction with th' movement to handle the old produc
