I. H. Bowen was in the city on
Wednesday. He recently purchased
the Refugee mine. The object of his
visit at this time is to make arrange
ments for starting up the work as soon
as the ore, amounting to 500 to 700 tons
that has been mined by Deming and
Hunt under lease is shipped. While
their lease has practically expired yet
it will take about two weeks to clean
up the tonnage after which Mr.. Bowen
will operate the mine on his swn
account. The ore that is now being
shipped nets SIT 90 per ton There is
much ore in the property Of a
higher grade and the tonnage of
lowerore is of an amount. which
is only q matter of conjecture as
to its large quantity. Mr.. Bowen is
very much pleased over the prospects
and thinks that if the McKelvey method
Of treating ore by amalgamation
proves practicable and the mills
are placed here that it will be a good
thing for his property as well as all
the low grades of ore in the dis
trict.

The noble gathering in Workman

sent time has established link of its
endless chain by the initiation and in
stituton of Lindeman Lodge SOP. Idaho

lh In mentioning the date of the an
hHal meeting of the Idaho Springs
Commercial Association, the Gazette
in its last issue designated next Monday
evening as the time. This is incorrect
as the date for holding said annual
meeting is on the secoud Monday in
March or on the 18th Hnst. Elsewhere
in these columns will be seen the Off
cial notice. 1t is hoped that there will
be good turn out a this meeting. The
Association during the past year has
been active and has laid solid founda-
tion upon which to build most use
full and beneficial organization for the
building Of other industries. 1t has
done SO to such an extent as to claim
the recognition of similar bodies
throughout the state. By unity and
concert Of actions its effici ency cannot
be estimated. Whatever difference of
opinion may at times come up on other
matters, this organization should be
purged of such and a pull altogether
should be its distinctive feature. What
is good for the comnunity along the
lines of advancement is good for the
indivipuals thereof. What is good for
one industry finds its reflections in 9TH
er industries. When one is advanced all
|, others reap some benefits. Let's pull
together.

Back-Oliver case in which the divorced
wife Of Oliver has sought to recover
possession Of her 5-year-old twin children
Judge Thornell cut short the case yester-
day, and denying the attorneys che
privilege OF arguing it rendered his
decision
In announcing his finding he declared the
evidence had been such as to create a
doubt in his mind as to the capabillty of
either parent taking proper care Of the
children, but he had concluded that their
best interests prompted the order for
continuation OF the care by their grand
mother. Mrs. oliver This leaves the chill
dren in the nominal custody Of the father
who is required to contribute to their sup
port.
After the announcement Of the decision
Judge Thornell called the father, who Is
boyish looking fellow, before him and
administered the severest lecture that he
has applied to any person In the court
room for years. lie warned the young
man that while the children were left
nominally in his custody they were still
in charge Of the court and would be taken
away from any bad influence that he
permitted to surround them.

themselves as well the unfortunate
children.

with bowed head and pale cheeks, but
the young woman left the court room
sobbing. An order was issued permitting
