The Colburn mill at Cripple Creek
will be in operation by Oct. Is.
It is estimated twenty-five cars of
good ore will be shipped from the
Forest Queen mine at Cripple Creek
during the month.
According to a recent report from
San Juan county, there will likely
be zinc-treating plant put up in Sill
7erton by the government.
A heavy tonnage of smelling ore is
going out from the Santiago mines at
Georgetown. The ore is high grade.
averaging $40 per ton in gold, silver
and lead.
1t is stated that the Dives-Pelican
and Seven-Thirty Mining Company at
Georgetown will soon start work ON
an aerial tramway to run from the
Zero tunnel level, to the big company
mill.
A stringer of lead has been encoun-
tered near the breast of the Vindica-
tor tunnel. Idaho Springs, Indicating
the approach to a vein carrying that
material. This is something unusual
Of copper-iron nature.
The Colorado Chemicals Company,
which has taken over the old Bailey
mill at Eldora, Boulder county, has in
creased the force of men employed
and it is reported will convert the
plant into a cyanide mill after plans
successfully employed in California.
Since the decline of the market val
ue of silver in 1898, development work
in Corkscrew bulch, in Ouray county,
as in other localities, has practical
ly ceased. With the advancement of
copper the district has come into
prominence on account Of its vast
quantities of black copper.
An important discovery is reported
from the Seven-Thirty mine on Sher-
man mountain, Georgetown. In carry
ing stope on the Bismark vein from
the third level of the old workings, a
streak of solid smelling ore six inches
wide has been exposed and mill run
returned 490 ounces silver per ton,
with twenty-five per cent lead. The
vein has been exposed for ninety feet
and the showing is improving.
The rick strike reported several
days ago on the 20O-foot level of the
Stratton's Independence mine, in Grip
pie Creek district, by William Millar
and associates of Victor, is holding up
we'll and it is said the shoot has wild
ened from two feet to three feet. The
ore is plastered with sylvanite and
samples assay from 5000 per ton up.
This is one of the richest strikes
made in the camp in many day.
The discovery of ore carrying $500
| in platinum per ton, with $S5 gold and
traces of silver. has startled miners
in the vicinity of Norwood. The plat
mum was shown as the result Of d
general assay of ore from big vein
Of sandstone known to be rich in gold
and which was located about. thirty
days ago in a new field in the Natu-
rita canon, by w. S. and Scott Leach.
Placer miners have panned the ore,
which is a soft red sand, and disinte-
CRATES easily, getting big values. The
strike Is the most wonderful made in
the San Juan country for thirty years
and the new field is overrun with pros
pectors.

GRAND MASTER OF ODD FELL
LOWS ATTENDED DISTRICT
MEETING OF THE ORDER IN
TAMPA AND SAYS SESSION WAS
ONE OF BEST HE EVER At
TENDED.

After a very pleasant trip, J. Ed.
Williams, grand master of the odd
Fellows of the State of Florida, re-
turned Sunday night from Tampa,
where he attended d district meeting
of the odd Fellows. The grand mas
ter was greatly pleased with the meet
ing. which he says was one of the
best he ever attended and during his
stay in Tampa he was the recipient of
many courtesies from the various
lodges taking part in the meeting.
The meeting was well attended and
much enthusiasm was manifested. ac-
cording to Mr.. Williams, the meeting
representing thirteen lodges, while
with the tourists who attended sixteen
states were represented, although not
officially. The meeting continued for
two days, Dec. 14th and 18th.
One Of the pleasantest affairs con-
nected with the netting, Mr.. Williams
says, was the banquet given by the
Rebekahs in honor of the grand mas
ter. This was one of the pleasantest
affairs he ever had the pleasure of at
tending. Mr.. Williams said.
Another very enjoyable occasion, ac-
cording to Mr.. Williams, was a din
ner given him by a Spanish lodge at
Yybor City. Everything was served in
Spanish style and every person present
with the exception of the grand mas
ter was Spanish. In this lodge all OF

The GOPHER
PRESENTED TO
FLORIDA CREW
JUDGE cHAS. n. LANEY MADE
PRESENTATION SPEECH ON BE-
HALF OF POLICE DEPARTMENT
LAST NIGHT AT ARMoRY HALL
JUST BEFORE DANCE BEGAN.

Although attended by much
smaller crowd and with less pomp and
ceremony than the presentation of the
silver service to the battleship Florida.
yet scarcely less interesting, was the
presentation of the Florida gopher to
the crew of the battleship by the Pen
sacola police department, which event
occurred last night at o'clock at the
armory hall. the presentation being
made in connection with the dance
given by the u. s. S. FIorida's social
club to the citizens of Pensacola.
Judge Laney Spoke.
The presentation speech was made
by Judge Charles n. Laney, author
of the famous book on the gopher, and
-humoristse and most brilliant public
speakers in the state, and, although his
speech was altogether eXtemporane-
Gus, it was, unquestionably, one of the
best delivered during the day
Among other things, Judge Laney
said The gopher is the original
Florida citizen. He was found here
four hundred years ago, and through
out all this time he has reserved all
his simplicity, although the fashions
have changed and even our noble
women have changed their mode of
dress, yet the gopher has not changed
his appearance.
"One good thing about the gopher is
that he never runs and never sleeps
on duty. Another good thing is that
he never gets sick, and you men Of
the Florida may rest assured that you
will not be bothered with having to
doctor him, and need not be uneasy
lest he should die. as a dead gopher,
who died from natural causes. has
never been seen. He has been known
to live hundred years-and then
some. This gopher will be here when
every man on the Florida has passed
away
In his characteristic way, the judge
commented upon the delicious dishes
to be made from the gopher, saying:

Of the Tampa Board of Trade, who is

shows more names than all the other
contributors in the state, we do not
desire the impression to go forth that
Tampa contributed more than half of
the funds. In Tampa the movement
for contributions for the silver service
fund was made a patriotic one, and
subscriptions were accepted for as
little as, ten cents, and a great ma
jorfty for one dollar. The total was
about $1,700. This is said in justice to
Pensacola and Jacksonville, which
were as generous, Or even more so
than Tampa, but the donations were
contributed in larger amounts. The
bound list of contributors which was
presented to the commanding officer
of the Florida places Tampa to an adj
vantage, and while our good friends of
other cities are too noble and too
courteous to make this explanation, 1
