MAKES A REVIEW
OF GOLDFIELD CON.
Copper Coming in on the Lower
Levels. Cream is Skinned

As Goldfeld Conso1idafed Mines
properties appear to be going into a
decline, a number of stock operators
are scanning every bit of information
obtainable regarding the future pros
poets OF the company's holdings. A
recent report sent out from the Ne
vada mine is to the effect that the
gold deposits in the lower workings
are fast becoming depleted, and that
the formation has changed from a
gold bearing rock to material with
good copper values. Some engln-
GERS say that there are indeed good
prospects of the mine being a CON
siderable copper producer later on.
This property has had most won
derful career. Few mines ever pro
duced the fabulous wealth that came
from this property i'll the same length
the fabulous wealthOf time. The
first ore discoveries that caused the
big stampede in Goldheld were made
in the winter of lo02-03. Actual
production OF this property only be
gan in small way until the COM
pany constructed its mill plant. \
prominent eastern capitalist who has
been exceptionally well informed re
garding the conditions OF this prop
erty says:
The gradual decline iii the price
of Goldheld Consolidated shares
should occasion no particular alarm

dation Of the mineral resources of a

six states are ahead of it in total

abiding and progressive. They are
boosters for everything that will help

with the exceptions that we are in
terested.
More fire insurance companies are
chartered in Iowa than in any other
western state With but few excep
lions they are small-too small to
compete successfully in outside terri
tory. This condition is due largely tt
the abominable laws of Iowa. But for

of Iowa have done their worst to de-
stroy home institutions and to turn
the business of the state over to larg-
err companies to which conditions in u
single commonwealth are not vitality
important
"Sideliners" is the characterization
of the class of insurance agents which
these conditions have produced. The
editorial says that most of these men,
now in the insurance business, know
little about it and care less. 1t is as
serted that this sort of agent gives
the assured no service. They lead no
movement to improve local conditions
and reduce the fire waste, it is declar-

That Iowa is on the dawn of better
days, is a prediction made. The pas
sage of the fire marshal law and the

the prophecy.

An Eccentric Man.

Samuel Boatman, several years be
fore his death, thirty-five years ago,
had a tombstone built for both him
and his wife. This monument today
stands in Oakland cemetery, In
scribed for both Mrs. Boatman and
her husband in fitting epitaph. Here
the body of the elderly nonagenarian
will be laid to rest probably tomor
row, Or Saturday Arrangements for
the funeral have not yet been made
but will be completed today, it is
thought. Services will be held from
the Birge Home.
1t is evident that Samuel Boatmar
little supposed that his wife woulo
survive him so many years but the
stone in the family lot will serve Its
purpose nevertheless.
Besides the son and daughter, there
are among the surviving relatives
fifteen or more grand children and .
number of great grandchildren.

attorneys for the company to file a

motion it was set out that the fire
adiusters will be here in a few days
and it will be necessary to make prop
per arrangement for carrying on the
business of the company. That in adj
dition to these things, the question as
10 whether the saw-mill shall be re-
built must be decided.
The death of Roy Million is alleged
to have been the result OF injuries he
received in a runaway. He was Or

pickets, according to the petition. The
pickets were negligently loaded and

COURT OF HEAVEN
FOR Her NOW.
Mrs. Amanda NJ. aoatman, % Years
Old, Died Early This Morning

Home.
WONDERFUL OLD WOMAN
Life Filled With Sorrows and Lltiga-
tons, Mother, Grandmother and
Great Grandmother, Cried
For Home.

No more will the name of Mrs.
Amanda M. Boatman, the "a years
old lady, be connected with the Keo-
kuk or any other courts of earth. At
twenty-five minutes of 2 o'clock this
morning, the aged woman who for the
past several years, has been the
cause of patience wearing litigations,
passed away at the Birge Home at
Seventh and Bank streets.
Confined in the Home since the
twelfth day of May, Mrs. Boatman had
cried to go home to her daughters at
Pennington and gradually, her wan
ing vitality had decreased and the
poor old mind had become blank
during the past two months. Her
daughter and relatives claim that the
death of Mrs. Boatman was due to the
court trials through which she passed
during the fore part of May and that
the removal from Pennington to Keo-
kuk fastened her end.

years old, Mrs. Boatman married her
second husband, Samuel Boatman,
who has now been dead for more
than thirty-five years. No children
were born to this second union.
For many years, Mrs. Boatman had
been a member of the Methodist
church of this city and up until three
years ago, when she became too en-
feebled to attend services any long
err, was regular in discharge of her
religious duties in the Methodist
Episcopal church.
