LIVE STOCK MEETING.

That there is a real awakening of in
terest in the question of stock breed
ing in this parish Ia manifested in
more ways than one. 1t is not the
farmers alone who have contracted
the fever for raising the standard
of the stock of this section, but our
lawyers, our doctors, and our bankers
have become interested to the extent
of becoming investors in foundation
stock. Therefore. il is no surprise
that the herd of "A head, brought here
from Texas by nr. Goodwin last week
continues to attract much attention.
1t has been suggested by some of the
owners of thoroughbred stock that
steps should be taken tow ards the or
ganization of a Thoroughbred stock
Raisers' Association in this parish.
This would logically suggest an amt
al lex hibition and awards. Such a
movement would do much towards
keeping interest keenly alive to the
end of the best possible development
Of the undertaking Of raising thor
oughbred stock.

was discovered on the surface 1t Is
the intention of the management to
crosscut south to the hanging wall OF
the ledge and also north to another

which joins the main ledge a short
distance to the east. A raise will
also be made on the footwall to the

Wine will be sunk to prospect the
ledge below the tunnel level.
On the upper fork of Willow Creek
the work necessary to hold the water
right granted by the state have
been completed; on the lower fork
the work will be done this spring.
With the water of the upper fork 30
horsepower can be developed. which
will be sufficient to operate a mill for
the handling of company IRE With
a small mill in operation the directors
believe that enough of the low grade
ore can be handled to more than pay
the cost of further development.
The company has a complete min
ing equipment including 1000 feet of
rails, mine car and all necessary tools
for present operations. A small hoist
will be secured when work of sinking
is begun.
The directors. officers and promot-
ers of this company are well known
in this district and have put up their
own money for purchase price and
most Of the development work. They
60 not now intend to sell more stock
than will carry on the plans as out
lined above. They promise all inves-
tors a square deal with the prospects
OF the investment proving extremely
profitable as the result of the OPEN
ing up of a big mine.

Though there was no indication OF

feet from the portal of the tunnel.
From this shoot a shipment of 400

DELAHIDE IN NEW ROLE.

j. A. (Red) Delahide, star player
on the Office nine last year. and for
merly captain of the University of Ne.
vada football team. who was stabbed
about a week g in a Reno saloon
during a fight with r. s. Roberts
was released from the Saint George
hospital last Saturday night, accord
ing to a letter received yesterday from
J.. r. Dillon.
One of DeIahide's intestines was
gashed and 1t was necessary for the
attending physicians to make an in
cision about six inches in length to
properly dress the wound.
Earl Conway, a friend of Delahide's
who was involved in the mixup, was
cut above the thigh, and is in no
danger.
Roberts, who has been a prisoner
in the city jail, states hal he inflicted
the wounds in self-defense, having
been attacked by Delahide and Con-
way.
According to the statements of one
eyewitness, it appeared that Conway
and Delahide had attempted to
provoke a quarrel with Roberts
claiming that the latter was not a
union man. and could not produce a
card. Terms of 'scab." "scaly" and
"strikebreaker' were applied, and
Roberts made no answer
The men had been drinking at the
bar, and when Delahide and Conway
commenced to apply the fighting
epithets. Roberts retired to the back
part of the saloon and occupied a
chair. For fully ten minutes the
TRADE continued, and finally Roberts
arose and started for the zeal door
of the saloon. He vas closely follow
ed, and the sounds of a scuffle were
heard. Delahide and Conway both
returned bleeding from cuts. Roberts
likewise ~re-entered the saloon.
The injured men left the place and
several minutes later Roberts went In
search of a police officer. In the
meantime Delahide and Conway sue
ceeded in getting a patrolman to take
Roberts into custody.
