PROPOSE new RULE
FOR MINE PATENTS

A reform in land procedure that
will affect hundreds, if not thousands,
of cases in the west was promised at a
conference held in Washington Thurs
day between Assistant Secretary Jones
of the interior department and Rep
resentative Raker, of California.
The department soon will issue regu-
lations to provide that hereafter GER
tifcates will be issued by land office
registers and receivers at the time
claimants for mining lands make their
final proof instead of holding up GER
tifcates until after investigation by
the government.
This would mean a great saving of
present delay to which mining claim
ants are subjected.
Many Thousands Saved.
Such a procedure, for which land
Office experts have been working for
some time, will probably result in a
saving of thousands of dollars to Ne
vada alone, not to mention the many
other states affected.
"Under the present rules said
George f.. Hair, chief of the field ser
vice of the Salt Lake City land office,
"a man may come in today and ask
for a certificate and get nothing for
three months, six months, or more, I'M
til | have time to send a man into
the field thoroughly to investigate
the case.
meanwhile, if no certificate is is
sued by December 81, the applicant
has to do his years assessment work.
That means money out of his pocket.
Under the proposed regulations the
applicant can get a certificate of pat
ent and if fraud is suspected in his
entry, final patent can be withheld by
the commissioner of the general land
Office until the matter is threshed
out. Thus 40 hardship is worked OF
anyone.

vestigation that | can turn in right
now and the applicants involved will
not have to spend money for assess

Get Wife's Inheritance,

HAzELHURST GA Nov. 1E.--
Never before in its history has this
town been so stirred as at the arreet
Of Patrick Ursery, a well-knowu resi-
dent here, on the charge Of poisoning
the entire family Of his wife to gain
her Inheritance.
Mrs. Ursery is the daughter OF j.
G. Ross, q wealthy farmer. But =
short time after the ceremony the en-
tire Ross family took i'll and their
condition became so serious that it
was feared they would die.
Circumstances surrounding the
6lckened persons were suspicious and
sn investigation was made by the
family physician. An analysis of the
food which they had eaten showed
the biscuits TO contain large guam
tity of strychnine. Further invest
cation pointed to Ursery as having
administered the poison to the fiour
from which the biscuits were cooked.
Actions Called Unusual,
uIsery is declared to have purchas
ed a. bottle of strychnine last Satur-
day on Sunday he and his wife auo
infant child visited the Ross home
While there, according to member.
Of the stricken family. Ursery's ac
lions We're most unusual It is said
that he pTyed into everything in the
house, especially in the kitchen and
pantry, where the -four and uncooked
food was kept.
Then suddenly Ursery took his wife
and baby away from the Ross home
without saying when he would re-
turn.
According TO Mrs. Ross, ne told her
not to use the flour, q new sack II
which had lately been purchased
Monday morning Ursery unexpeci
eddy appeared again at the Ross home
Whole Family Was III.
The entire family was writhing ln
agony Despite the protests of his
wife that she might remain to attend
her parents in their illness, Urser,
took her to his own home.
Friends of the Ross family, learning
later Of Ursery's actions. began an
Investigation Of the case, which re
suited in his arrest.
In the County Jail UTsery denies

He waived preliminary examination
and his bond was fixed at $4,000. H.
