FREE GOLD IN THE PUZZLE.

Ellis Visitine, who has been leas-

mine, last week made a find that
makes the ore taken out when the
mine was making a record some
months ago, look like wall rock. For
some time Mr.. Visitine has been
prospecting the mine and has en-
countered some good smelling ore in
the 15O+'oot level which shows a heavy
quantity Of free gold.
A year ago, Visintine was leasing
in the Puzzle with some of his
countrymen and in the 150foot level
they took out quantity of ore that
netted them far better than wages.
The find of last week is 20 feet back
Of the point where the lessoes had
the ore a year ago.
When the mino was paying big

150-foot level ran as high as S223.00

level was abandoned, all the lessees

CASES IN THE DISTRICT COURT.

The January session of the distric,
court, which was called for the trial
of cases Monday Of this week will be
brief and will be adjourned as soon
as the jury which is celebrating on
the Donatti case returns a verdict,
which will doubtless be reached this
afternoon or evening.
Monday afternoon the case of A.
G. Rummell vs.. R. /. Hughes and B.
r. Threewit was commenced. This
was a suit wherein the plaintiff
sought to recover damages amounting
to $77O0, claiming that the defendants
had misrepresented the sale of the
lease and bond on the Hall mine in
Russell Gulch. At the close of the
evidence, the court granted a motion
for a directed verdict in favor of
the defendants. The taking of evil
dence was concluded yesterday morn
ing. This is the same case that was
tried at the June term of court last
year and a compromise verdict was
given by the jury in favor of the
plaintiff, allowing him s25OO. w. E.
Withrow and Judge w. C. Matthews
represented the defendants and made
a strong defense for their clients.
Yesterday afternoon jury was pro-
cured in the case of the People VS..
Peter Donatti, charged with having
committed an assault upon Joe Paoli
with a revolver. The shooting occur
red in Perigo about December 18th of
last year. The complaining witness
upon the stand testified that the de-
fendant had deliberately shot him in
the leg, without any provocation, and
then threatened to kill him if he in
formed the authorities or made any
trouble over the affair. Donatti said
the shooting was done accidentally by
PaoH and at the time the revolver
was discharged he (DonattD was
looking out of window. Donatti told
a very connected story and his testi-
mony was not shaken upon cross ex-
spoke through an interpreter. Chas.
Renaldi acted in this capacity. w. E.
Withrow was appointed by the court
to defend Donatti. By holding a ses-
sion last evening the case was con-
cluded and given to the jury this
morning at 10:30. The jury was out
all afternoon and hadn't reached
verdict at the time of going to press.
The cases Of H. A. Hicks VS.. w. J.
stull were not ready for trial at this
session OF court and were continued
over until the June term. These cases
failing to come up accounts for the
short session Of court. Had all of
them been tried, court likely would
have been in session until Memorial
day.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

The results from the examinations
were exceedingly gratifying to stu
dents and teachers alike. The new
half-year has started off quite aus
piciously. although there was some
trouble in making tho program con-
form to all demands made upon it.
Rickard McNicholas has re-enter-
ed school, increasing the junior class
by Just that much. 1t is reported
that Rickard is good student. II
there are any more Of that class who
think Of re-entering. they will be
welcome.
The small crowd that turned out
last Friday night to see our boys
trim Golden were not In the least
disappointed. except in that the
score was not 100 to instead of
only 45 to s. 1t certainly seems too
bad that the splendid work OF our
team cannot meet with better support

sounded the street in front of the
New York store was crowded with
people and the firemen had a difficult
time performing their work. AS Is in
variably the case at fire there are
always those who cannot refrain from
gfving instructions and "buttin' in"
The firemen handled the blaze in q
most efficient manner. They prevent
90 the fire from getting such head
way as to jeopardize the business Sec
tion of the town. They kept the dam
age down to the minimum. Had it not
been for their quick work the entire
store undoubtedly would have been
consumed by the flames. Considering
the limited and inadequate equipment
q the fire department, their work
was such as would rebound credit to
tfained fire fighters. The attaches of
tie New York store are loud in their
praise Of the work of the fire boys,
and the people generally are offering
deserved commentator.
The fire adjusters of the insurance
companies carrying the stock of the
New York store are expected in the
city in a day or two to appraise the
loss. The store is nailed up and moth
ing will be touched nor will the stock
be removed until their arrival.
I'm the loss sustained by the New
York store, the entire populace of the
county expresses regret. Even though
the amount of the insurance is seem
inely heavy it will by no means reim-
burse the owners. Aside from the
damage occasioned by the fire, the
store will be closed for some time
while the adjusters are fixing the
loss, and the cessation of business
will mean a great deal to the store.
The New York store has been in
business in Central under the direct
ing head of Abe Rachofsky upwards
Of forty-fivc years. 1t has occupied
q position commanding the highest

any establishment in the county.
That the business will continue after
repairs to the building are made and

pleasing concern to countless patrons
