new COMPANY
FORMED FOR
Mining DEAL
A FRENCH OUTFIT WILL TAKE
OVER THE KANROHAT PROP
ERTIEs, 1T is SAID.

The deal announced last Decem-
ber by which Messrs Brabrook,
Macdonald and others were to take
over the Kanrohat properties in
Jefferson canyon, evidently did not
materialize. 1t went the way of
the Macbeth syndicate in September.
The Manhattan Post states that
Kanrohat is now in San Francisco
cius,1y q deal with French ccm-
rauy to take over the properly. No
particulars are given, however.
Kanrohat went through here sew
eral weeks ago on his way to the
coast, with view to securing capi-
tai for the development Of the prop
erty. 1t is a big proposition, but
because the ore is base, and must
therefore be smelted, great amount
of capital is required in order to
handle it. Mining men unite in the
opinion that the present mill on
the ground built at an expense Of
$4,000 several years ago-is utter
ly valueless for the purpose

LEASERS have
$4,000 RUN
in The Mill
STEEN, POAK & CHAPMAN HAVE
A BIG RUN IN THE WAR
EAGLE MILL.

A. ]. Poak, of the leasing firm
of Steen, Peak & Chapman, at Man
haitian, came in town last evening
on business and will return to-
morrow
He says they have just turned
over to the War Eagle for treat
ment something like 5000 tons of
ore from their lease which will
run $50 and better. Some of the
samples gave returns, as was shown
the reporter by the assay report,
of nearly 5000 to the ton. The
total value of the mill run will
exceed $4,000.
Prior to this run the last one
was made in November, when some
thing short of $4,000 was real
lied as gross returns.
Mr.. Poak says development work
is being prosecuted actively in the
pine-tree camp. New leases are be-
ing taken on every hand, and a
confident air is observed among the
mining men. The future never
looked better.

LOCAL MAN
OFFERS $3.50
IF HE ESCAPES
ALBURTUS WILL BE LOCKED IN
STEEL CELL AT COUNTY
JAIL THIS WEEK.

A local police officer, having Of
fered $3.50 if Alburtus. the hypnot-
list, with the company now playing
at the Nevada theater. il he would
break out of a cell in the county
jail, the man who defies locks and
bolts and handouts, will be given
chance to earn the money this
week.
Sheriff Malley is to lock Alburtus
in one Of the steel cells. after hav-
ing first handcuffed him and put
leg-irons on him. Alburtus is to
make his way out.
No one here believes he will be
able to do it.. II he does he
will earn considerably more than
the $3.50, since the Pauly Jail
company, which installed the cells
at the Jail, offers several thousand
dollars for any proven case Of es-
cape from their cells.
1t is admitted that Alburtus
might be able to pull of the stunt
If he were able to reach the lock
of his cell, but in this case there
are no locks on the cells. All the
cells on one side of the Jail. are
locked by a lever, and all close
simultaneously This lever is out
side the jail, in the corridor, and
inclosed in box which is locked
by Yale lock. There is no way
on earth by which man in cell
can reach the lever.
For this reason there prevails
such decided disbelief in the mans
ability to work out Of the Jail.

UTAH AND LOCAL TRUSTS

Under the Utah law when the
consumers of the state believe that
they are being held up on living
commodities they can appeal to their
grand jury and have the affair in
vestigated. In Provo few days
ago several merchants, retail butch
ers and the lumber dealers were
indicted by the grand jury for car
rying on a combination of prices
and forming a local trust. 1t was
found that the retail merchants
had combined to fix prices on food
stuffs and prosecutions are to fol-
low. The report of the grand
jury resulted in the arrest of sew
|eral Of the best citizens of the
state who will have to defend them
selves in open court, and also fur
nish bonds in order to keep Out
of the local jail, This is pretty
stin treatment on the local or tpwr
merchants, but it is also pfetty
rough on the daily consumer wher
he finds that he is being soaked
all along the line.

covered Glendale park and every day
autoists invade the beauty spot and
proceed to tear up the pavement at a
rate of speed anywhere from thirty to
fifty miles an hour. Some of the worst
offenders are H~ammondites, who do not
enter the park with the idea of ad-
miring its beauty. but rather to avail
themselves of a good track on which to
practice taking turns at high speed.
The residents of Glendale do not
mean to be selfish and to shut them
selves off from tie outside world, but
they do object TO autoists making a
