ENDORSE W.H.COULTER's CIRCU

ENDORSE ". II. COULTER S CIRCUS
In the greatest scrap book of press
notices kept by the great W. H..
Coulter shows may be found many
unique and original press notices
which make Interesting reading. Per-
haps enc of the most original COM
ments, because of its unusual and en-
phatic way of expressing its approval
of the big show, is the following,
taken from the Daily Journal Of
Hannibal, No..
Some years ago a bald headed
member OF the Missouri legislature,
from the southeastern section Of the
state, introduced bill to compel
circuses to show everything advertised.
''rhis honest statesman evidently
did not have Mr.. Coulter's circus in
mind, when he prepared his bill, judy
ing from the great entertainment
given by that great combination in
this city yesterday.
THE promises on the big, flaming
bills were great, but every promise
was fulfilled, and more.
The parade, to start with ast0nished
everybody. 1t was immense. And then
the menagerie was complete and there
was no kick coming from ticket
holders The big show came up fully
to expectation. To particularize would
require page. Every act was ap.

DOG GUARDS MASTERS BODY
Canine Has to BE Killed Before
Corpse Can BE Touched.

OosPoe Nan DC Oucneo.
The traditional faith of the dog for
its master was never better exemnli-
fed than at a lumber camp at Breya-
tor, this state, when a dog guarded
the dead body of it's master so ZEAL
ously that nobody dared to approach
the body until the animal Dad been
shot.
Maurice Trentell and his dog had
occupied the camp and the man lay
dead on the floor when a chance
passer looked in. The dog was on
guard and the man went away for as
sistance. With others he returned
and no amount of strategy or coaxing
could get the animal to leave the side
of its dead master.

DOUBLE TRACKING

MEANS EXPENDITURE OF SEW

HARTMAN LINES.

Work under the announced plan

On the Oregon Short Line section
of the system double tracking will

Of the work between Ogden and
Pennington. This work will cost
over 100000.
Work on the double track i'm

April. Fifteen miles of the road
west from Pocatello and seven miles
either side of Montpelier is to
be double tracked at a cost of about
$1,OOO,OOO.
This is only a beginning, EST

busiest sections of the Southern Pa.

entire system through Utah, Nevada

to be double tracked, and judging
from the activity already mani.
tested, the Hartman officials will
be well within their five-year time
limit when the gigantic undertake

GRILLS S. u. ATTORNEY
AT THE RATE HEARING

A Washington dispatch says that
Interstate Commerce Commissioner
Franklin K. Lane subjected G. W.
Luce of the Southern Pacific rail-
road to a lively grilling at the rate
hearing, and before he was through
the commissioner indicated that to
his mind the plea of the railroads
that coast terminal rates, forced
down by fierce water competition, -
were so low as to be unremuner-
alive, was largely a myth Luce
was testifying swimmingly in iusti-
ficaticn of the back haul and inter-
mountain rates until Lane went
| after him, even insinuating broadly
lack of good faith by the wit
ness.
| In the way of a challenge to Luce
the commissioner ordered him tC
produce coast commodity tariffs as
between December J., 1906, and De.
cember 1, 1910, to show whether
the fierce water competition" which
has arisen during that time has had
any effect in lowering the railroad
rates. The audience frequent,
laughed at the bold statements ot
Luce about rates and rate making
and the cross-eXaminers for the in.
termountain region made much cap

BIG SIX STRIKE
ATTRACTS MANY
SHIPMENTS OF HIGH-GRADE Sill
YER ORE BEING MADE by
LEASERS.

The strike of extremely rich sill
yer ore on what is known as the
Joy lease on Big Six ground near
Sulphur has created considerable
excitement and many people are
headed for the camp. From reliable
information from mining men who
have visited the property it is as
certained that the strike of ore is
even bigger than was first reports
ed and the rich ore is being ex-
tracted faster than it can be hauled
to the railroad with the facilities
at hand. Since the discovery was
made, about two weeks ago, two
carloads of ore from the strike have
been shipped to the smelter at MUIR
ray, Utah, and another shipment will
be ready in short time.
The high-grade character of the
ore, which on the Joy lease is be-
'ag taken from an open cut, only
picks and shovels being necessary,
has started mining men from over
the state to the scene of the great
strike. 1t has been some time
since there was a general rush of
people to any particular district and
IL now looks as if the camp will
soon have large population.
The Big Six property, on which
the phenomenal strike was made, is
owned by Louis H. Parkhurst AMI
Malcolm Macdonald, who were among
the biggest mining operators in
Tonopah and Goldfield, and this
fact has started many people from
the southern camps to the new Ell
dorado of Humboldt county.
Another lease on the Big Six tina
is making good is that owned by
Messrs. Kelly and Pfoutz They
have made number of shipments
and are continually taking out rica
ore.
William Boyce, who has a lease
on the Brown Palace, also owneJ
by Messrs. Parhurst, Macdonald ant
associates, is uncovering fine
body of high grade ore and ha!
already made a carload shipmen
to the smelter The Brown Palac,
was originally owned by Phil Blum,
and associates, who disposed CT tn,
estate to the present owners for
large sum of money.
When first discovered there wa
body of ore uncovered that wa
at least fifteen feet wide and S
rich was the ledge matter that

The rich ores of the district con

Of these metals in the rock.
The Western Pacific railwa
passes through the district, the sta
