Justice With a Vengeance.

A broker was talking about J. Pier
pont Morgan.
THE money trust investigation un-
doubtedly shattered him." the broker
said. HE believed that this investi-
CATION was unfairly conducted. He
likened it, in my hearing, to a horse
stealing trial out west.
"A jury vas gathered in the street,
he said, and shut up in a room, after
a brief trial, and when an hour had
gone by a mob burst in and uncere-
moniously demanded what the verdict
was.
mot guilty. said the foreman.
THAT won't do!' said the leader OF
the mob ~fiercely. You'll have to dc
better than that And he shut the
jury up again.
IN half an hour the door was
opened once more.
We'll, gents, YOU verdict sale
the leader.
Guilty the foreman said.
There we're hurrahs from the
crowd, and the leader said:
Correct. You can go now. w

Getting the Equipment.
L. A. McCandless, superintendent OF
the noted August mine, has been pur-
chasing machinery and equipment and
hat his company will start
Immediately erecting a new 2OO-ton
cyanide mill, and expects to have it in
operation in August. The mine has
been closed three months because the
old plant was not saving the values
that it should. The company has co.
600 tons of tailings on the dump that
will be treated in the new mill and in
addition there are between 10000 and
200, 900 tons of splendid ore already
blocked out and will be treated so
soon as the new mill is in operation.
The Ruby Gulch, n of the best
producing gold mines in the state, in
the same district, is affording en-
ployment to between seventy and
eighty men and is milling about 800
tons Of ore a day. Charles Whitcomb,
one of the pioneers of that district, is
developing the Beaver Creek mine.
and is building a 200-ton mill which
will be finished about July l. He
has a crew of forty men and has been
developing the property the last three
years. 1t is a steam shovel PROPOSE
