FIRE DOES
LITTLE DAMAGE
Lamp Is Overturned by Wind
and Starts Fire Which Is Soon
Extinguished

Had it not been for the timely dis
covery last Sunday night at about IL 100
p m the business district would in all
probability have suffered another heavy
loss by fire. Lewie Walker who owns
the old barber shop between Mr.. Hawes'
store and the Hastings parperty had
gone down town leaving the door open
and lamp burning and it is believed
the wind must have blown it over for
when it was found 1t was lying on the
floor all in flames.
Mr.. R. S. Hawes was preparing to
lock up for the night and when he went
to the front door he discovered the fire
and Immediately gave the alarm which
promptly brought several men from the
Spanish hotel across the street who as
sisted him in extinguishing the flames
in short notice. The damage was very
slight.

A NEW KIND OF BOOZE
FOR THE DRY COUNTIES

Andrew" has come to town to mud
die the intellects of the bibulous and
rack the brains of the lawyers.
Andrew" is touted as the concen
trated extract of malt. 1t is sent out
from Cincinnati in small cans and is ad-
vertised as having conformed to all
pure food laws A can the size Of an
ordinary tumbler will make 10 gallons
Of beer. All that is necessary lie to add
sugar, yeast and water and the thing is
done
The question is, may ''Ambrew" be
freely distributed in dry territory in
defiance of all local lawsand ordinances? I?
The problem reached the Office of At
torney General McDougall yesterday,
coming direct from Prosecuting At
torney 6. W. suppiger of Latah
county. This official saws he has had
the stuff analyzed. He finds that it
contains no alcohol, but he finds that
with the addition OF sugar, yeast and
water, it will make beer.
1t is asserted by those who have looked
into the laws that might be expected to
bear on "ambrew" that they have been
unable to discover any decisions cover
ing just such situation. 1t is argued
that if it is violation of the statutes to
sell such stuff as "ambrew' that il
would be equally violation of the stat
utes to sell barley to brewery with the
knowledge that the barley is to be util-
lied in the manufacture of beer.
The whole question, together with a
sample package of the "ambrew," has
been submitted to Attorney General
McDougall, and this means naturally
that someone is destined to do some
digging among the law books before a
correct solution is reached. No doubt
the same problem has been up in other
states and the course pursued there will
be looked into with deep interest, NOT
only by the attorneys but by those
friends OF prohibition, who will natur-
ally see in "ambrew" another deadly
enemy to their cause.

MEETS DEATH
In RUNAWAY
One Man Killed and Another
Injured on Waeontown Hill
Near Della mar

Shortly after noon last sunday the
cad intelligence reached Silver City by
telephone of a fatal runaway near
Wagontown in which Earnest stoup
was killed and Jack Hunt seriously
injured.
Mr.. Hunt is an employee of the Idaho
Brewing company and was returning
from Jordan Valley, Oregon, accom-
panied by Mr.. Stoup who intended to
ride as far as DeLamar. When thew
reached the Wagontown hill the team
became unmanageable and commenced
running, throwing Hunt out Of the
wagon breaking his collar bone and
two ribs; lie, however, Immediately
jumped 10 his feet and ran down the
hill IN the direction the team was going
and at distance of about sixty feet
from where he was thrown he found
stoup lying in the road with his skull
crushed and dying 1t is believed that
the wagon which was loaded with empty
beer kegs ran over him, the wheels
striking his head
The team was caught about three
quarters of mile from the scene Of the
accident by Dan Driscoll An examina-
tion OF the team and wagon showed that
no further damage was done.
Mr.. stoup was comparatively a
stranger here and about all that is
known of him is that he was sheep
herder. He was about 55 years Of age
and has no known relatives.
1t is reported that Mr.. Hunt is getting
along as nicely as could be expected

OTHER PEOPLE KNOW
SILVER CITY is ALBRIGHT

Notwithstanding the predictions of the
pessmists and the howls of the knock
ers," the old camp of Silver City, Idaho
is once more coming to the front as the
best gold and silver producer in the state
of Idaho. Many men are working on
the various properties being developed
and the producing mines surrounding
the town. and many more will soon find
employment as the work progresses.
The Rich Gulch Co will soon start on
the building of their mammoth mill on
their property, as they have been open
ing mp their mines on several levels. and
will soon be in ore in their deep tunnel,
which taps the vein l 100 feet below the
surface. The vein is of immense size
and carries good values, chiefly in gold
Che recent strike on Castle creek by
Evans and Connors, is creating great
deal OF excitement, and will prove good
rich property. The purchase of the
White brothers property on Twilight
gulch near Flint, and the bonding of the
Bonnel property, is almost an assured
fact, while on Stormy hill fabulously
rich ore is being taken out on the "Never-
Sweat property owned by sorrenson
and Shaw, or d. o. Brumbraugh, and
will be milled at the Arastra on Jordan
creek, Just above Silver City.
The renewed activity Of the mines so
near Jordan Valley has stimulated busi-
ness here, and will make an increased
demand for hay, grain and other pro-
duce raised in this valley Jordan
Valley Express.
The Owyhee nugget. ([Silver City], Idaho) 1905-1984, 1911-07-20

Everything is reported as moving along
smoothly at the Banner and the big mill
is running full handed.
Work commences today at the Rich
Gulch mine. As soon as the excavat-
ing is done work win commence on the
big mill which is expected to be COM
pleted before cold weather. This pro-
perty is only two miles from Silver Citv
and will be one Of the big producers of
this district as they have a very large
body of good ore.

RICH GOLD DIGGENGS
AWAITING EQUIPMENT

The Napias Placer Mining Co. OF Sal
men, Idaho, owns one of the best tracts
of placer ground to be found in the west
today. The property 10 located on the
upper end of Napias creek in the Lees
burg mining district, the camp whose
production during the past totals the
sum Of $50, 200, 900 in gold bullion, re-
cord surely to be envied by mining
districts of larger magnitude and greater
fame Napias creek contributed most
Of this sum.
This property was formerly owned by
the members Of the present holding
company, which was incorporated for
the purpose of uniting several different
interests on Napias creek and thereby
bring the whole property under the one
management, each owner taking in ex-
change for his interest proportionate
amount of stock in the company.
The officers are: John H. Padgham,
president; H. E. Frost, vice-president;
7. A. Munro, secretary and manager,
j. W. Caples, treasurer.
The area of the property comprises
some 800 acres of gulch placer along
with bars, benches and hill side diggings.
The main part Of the property, however,
is the gulch proper. This part has been
thoroughly prospected with a view
toward determining the gold values
Over 100 shafts have been sunk to bed
rock at regular intervals and the tract
is opened up thoroughly and it is safe
to say that more gold can be seen at
more different places on this property
than on any other, be it placer or quartz.
in radius of 100 miles. The company
also owns a splendid water right convey
ing sufficient water for all purposes.
The gravel has an average depth Of
fourteen feet and there are approximate
ly 100000 cubic yards Of gravel worth
thirty-five cents per yard The pro-
perty covers part Of the richest ground
in the camp, it being left unworked
owing 10 natural conditions which could
not be surmounted by the necessarily
crude methods used in early days
Drifting and ground-sluiciDg opera
tions have been carried on in desultory
fashion for several years and have
always been highly profitable to the
different operators as high as 1927 70
