Passes Anti-PoIyeamy Resolution.
Denver-The House unanimously
passed the anti-polygamy resolution
introduced by Representative Mann.
Under its provisions, If 1t passes the
Senate, Congress will be asked to en-
act laws to eliminate all traces Of the
Mormon practice. Representative
Mann was prompted to introduce the
measure, it Is said, after Joseph
Smith, leader of the Mormon faith in
Utah, had made 1t known to him that
more than eleven hundred Mormon
women had been married in 1912 to
men who already had from two to five
wives. The Mormon leader declared
that despite the decree of the church
that the practice must be stopped,
many were clinging to the old custom
and that unless Congress passed laws
prohibiting plural marriages the evil
would never be overcome.

MINING ACTIVITY
ON QUARTZ HILL,

The north side Of Quartz Hill new
er looked brighter for active work at
any time during the last ten years
than 1t does today. More money in
| the way of development and the in
stallation of new machinery is being
expended than at any time during
the past decade. A large tonnage is
being hauled off the hill to the mills
and smelters. Nevadaville has put on
| the appearance OF a boom mining
camp.
| Two cars of modern machinery have
been hauled to the Pozo mine in New
ada gulch. An Imperial Rand Com
pressor of the largest type is being
installed on the Pozo with purpose
Of furnishing air for the new hoist.
| in addition to the drill equipment.
Development on this property through
the workings of the Newhouse tun-
mel, (an upraise having been put
| through for distance of 325 feet
above the tunnel leveD has warrant
ed the erection of new surface equip
ment sufficient to put through new
working shaft that will connect with
the tunnel workings and make avail
able an immense tonnage of ore that
can be more profitably handled from
this end by hoist than under the long
haul through the Newhouse tunnel.
With large body of ore developed
at the tunnel level, which brings up
wards of $4,000 per ton in car lots to-
gether with the record shipments
made for the first $50 feet of the sur
face workings of the Pozo, warrants
the management in making the pre-
sent expenditure to exploit the virgin
ground of about 1000 feet in depth
that is made sure by the existing
development.
A brighter or more certain outlook
was never enjoyed by any mining
syndicate in the history of the camp.
The funds necessary for these new
improvements have been subscribed
by the parties interested to double
the amount Of the engineers esti-
mates. SO that any and all contingen-
cies may be provided for.
With the Pozo, German-Belcher,
Hubert and Kansas-Burroughs group
installing new apparatus for the econ
omical working of the respective prop
critics, a new era has arrived that
will once more place Quartz Hill in
line with the largest producers of the
yellow metal.

HARRY HAMLLlk
KILLED IN A FALL,

The funeral of Harry Leo Hamllik
who met an untimely end Thursday
night, meeting his death by slipping
on ice while mounting the steps to
High Street near the School house,
was held Monday morning from st.
Mary's Catholic Church. The Central
City Fire Department, of which the
deceased was a member, attended the
services in a body and escorted the
remains to the Catholic cemetery.
Harry was born in Black Hawk 80
years ago and was one of the popular
young men of the community. The
Observer extends profound sympathy
to his sorrowing parents and relatives
Friday morning at 9:15 o'clock.
Miss Edna Driscoll's attention was
called to the body of man lying
close to the wall near the school
house. She Immediately notified Prof.
Clark who Investigated and called up
the Drug store, inquiring if there was
doctor present, ass man had fall
en- over the wall and apparently in
jured himself. DR.. Guy Ashbaugh re-
sponded to the call and found the
body cold and stiff. Neither Prof.
Clark nor DR.. Ashbaugh recognized
the body until George Mayor came
along and identified it as the body of
Harry l.. Hamllik. 1t was at once re-
moved to the undertaking parlors. At
first it was thought foul play had
been committed. A coroner's jury was
summoned to hold an inquest at 800
O'Clock Saturday morning to deter
mine the cause of his death Messrs.
Tom. Stribley, Oscar Williams, Louis
Rachofsky, Robert Holmes, and Fred
Rowe composed the jury.
After viewing the remains, the in
vestigation was held in the county
court room. The following named wit
nesses had been summoned and were
examined as to their knowledge of the
affair: Prof. Clark, John Floyd, Gus.
Holngren, Walter Todd and Mrs.
Todd. The testimony developed that
a social gathering had been held at
the rooms of Mr.. and Mrs. Todd in
the Granite house. Deceased left for
home between and 9:30 in the even.
ing and nothing more was seen of him
until the finding of the body, the next
morning. After thorough investiga-
ton the jury brought in the following
verdict: That deceased came to his
death by falling over the wall in the
rear of the Whitman yard, receiving
therefrom injuries which caused un-
consciousness and died from exposure,
between the hours of 9 p. m. Thurs
day and ! a. m. Friday, February 9Th
and 7th, the weather at that time be-

Lon Rich, now a nurse at the
county hospital, who was an attend

eILPlN-oRIoN HAS
EIGHT OUNCE ORE

Herman Simmer and associates,
leasing on the Gilpin- Orion property,
are breaking fine grade Of ore that
in value and quantity promises to
place them on Easy street. They
are drifting east in the 215-foot level
and have four inches of smelling and
18 inches Of mill dirt. The smelling
ore runs four ounces to the ton and
the mill dirt runs two ounces to the
cord.
They are also drifting east and
west in. the 275 bottom level, where
they have good bodies of ore on both
sides of the shaft. In the 275, in
in both the east and west drifts, the
smelling streak is six inches wide.
The streak on the east side assays
three ounces to the ton in gold and
on the west side assays as high as
eight ounces have been had.
The ground between the 215 and
the 275-fot levels is heavily mineral
lied and the ore shoots contain very
profitable ore In the shaft, in sink
ing from the 215 to the 275 level, the
ore taken out paid s4.00 foot. This
ore still shows in the bottom of the
shaft.
II the shaft were deepened another
100 feet, 1t is certain that larger ore
bodies would be opened up below
and the cost of sinking would not be
heavy, considering that the ore in
the shaft would pay goodly portion
of the expense.
The death Of w. E. Meagher and
Thomas Reynolds, two of the direc-
tors OF the company, and both active
and experienced mining men, was a
distinct loss to the Gilpin-Orion CON-
pany. A, meeting is to be held in
Denver this month, when their sue
cessors will be named and possibly
plans will be laid for sinking the
shaft.
