The lessees at the Anaconda.
after several days trial have de-
cided to stop work in the shaft.
of the Anaconda mine, on ac-
count of it's becoming to base to
work under the present arrange
ments. The expense for horse
at the whim and a team to haul
the ore, was to much, so they
have opened up the vein on the
Boarding House claim, the ore
from which is trammed direct to
the mill. The ore taken from
this vein is all close to the sur
face and is. very free.
1t is understood they will raise
from the main tunnel to the
Anaconda vein, and get the ore
out that way.

COSTLY PURCHASE
SALTED PROSPECT
Vancouver Men Think They
Were BuncOed.

Officers of the Steamboat
Mountain Gold Mines, Ltd, at
Vancouver, B. c., suspect that
they were swindled when they
purchased the Steamboat prop
erty for something over $50, 900.
The stock has been withdrawn
from the market pending inves-
tigation by the directors.
1t is suspected that the mines
were salted, and as evidence that
gold was put into the property
in order to sell it. 1t is'said that
that the gold taken from the
samples is in the form of an alloy
which is peculiar to the United
States gold coins. tits supposed
that about $1,000 worth of gold
coins were ground up and placed
in the rocks at the place of the
reported big gold find.
A big gold find was reported
last July by Dan Greenwalt and
w. A. Stevens; two prospectors,
who took fine quartz samples in
to Vancouver, and the discovery
resulted in a big rush into the
supposed gold fields this spring

In this tunnel they cut through
two intrusive dikes of diorite,
which are characteristic of this

Elk City Celebrated in
Good Style.
PLAYED GREAT BALL GAMT
Dixie Victorious by a Score of
ID to 10.

The Glorious Fourth passed in
to history in Elk City as the most |
enjoyable holiday that has been
celebrated in this city and sur
rounding country for sometime.
The day broke cool and clear
with everybody in good spirits
and looking for a good time. The
Dixie ball team had arrived the
night before with a good crowd
of their friends, and as they
were royal bunch they were
royalty received and entertained.
The early morning was very
quietly spent, with the exception
of the usual salute, which was
fired, and we'll fired, for it was
heared for several miles around
the basin. The small boy disap-
pointed in the none arrival of a
cargo of fire works, but it was
only in keeping with the sane
Fourth idea.
At 2 o'clock the ball game was
caileo, ana NE great event of
the day was on. There wee-v..--
of the best of crowds out, and
everybody had a feeling of good
will, so when it came to brilliant
plays, there was always burst
Of enthusiasm that showed the
feeling of good sport loving
people.
The game opened with both
teams somewhat the worse for
stage fright, but as Dixie, who
went to the bat first, commenced
to pile up runs, the Elk City
team settled down to hard work,
and in the end gave very pretty
exhibition of ball playing.
In the first three innings the
Dixie team took the lead, and
were never headed. In the last
six innings there were only three
runs made and these were well
earned. Among the many pretty
plays made was the running
catch of Mcpherson in deep left
t as was also the work of Austir
5 and Robinson at short. Lewis
of the Dixie team did good worl
? at third, and was valuable find
2 Arden Litchfeld surprised hi
many friends by his great worl
= in the box. With little coach
e ing Litchfeld would make a goot
pitcher, as he has the strength
/ to stay with it. The double pla!
e in the last inning by Danfortl
! and Card was we'll executed. A
to the umpiring,, it was a marva
n of fairness, and it was conceede'
o that Harry Shissler did splen
: did Job. From first to last ther
y was absolutely no kick to ma
!. the pleasure of the game, and
:, was the unamious opinion that
: as a pleasant agreeable event
!, was the best ever pulled off
Elk City.

After the ball game was over.
and everybody had enjoyed a
good dinner, the king of all
sporting events was declared in
order and the first horse race
was called on. The race was for
a small purse and all the bets
that could be made. There was
no trouble at the start and the
race was on. 1t was taken by
Buck ridden by Shissler, with
Purdy's horse ridden by Lingo,
second, and "Old Abe" ridden by
Fred Yahraus, third.
The next race was free-for-
all pony race, ana was won by
Vermillion's pack horse, Ribbon,
ridden by Hugh Kennedy.
The next thing on the program
was the great bucking match.
The horse was ridden by Hugh
Kennedy, and while it did some
stunts it was to much handi-.
capped by the horsemanship of.
Kennedy and soon gave up. The.
days sports were brought to a
close by dance in the city hall.
The dance was an enjoyable
affair, and the large crowd pres.
ent seemed to regret the end of
the festivities.
