Ore Hauling from
Star Properties

Ore hauling from the Star and
Independence mines is being pushed
at present and full-capacity loads
are being brought down to the rail
road for shipment. About ten
four-horse teams are now working,
and 5000 pounds is taken to a
load. Much credit is given to
county Commissioner Whalen for
this piece ofroad which is proving
n great advantage to the Italian
mountain district and has been the
means of making Il practical and
much-needed outlet for the ores OF
that section. The road was laid
out on q sleightsgradual grade land
therefore admits of the bringing OF
heavy loads down, with no steep
pulls on return trips. The outlay
in the construction of this road was
considerable, but it will undeubtly
prove out to be county money well
spent.

And What About
the Law?

OF late We have been hearing
numerous reports ofkilling OF noun
tain quail in the surrounding'valleys.
At this time of the year these birds
are down feeding upon the willow
buds, and are supposed to be fully
protected from slaughter by the
game laws of the state. however,
that seems not to be the case, and
we understand the bottom-lands arc
well snowshoe marked where hunt
ers have been recently. In addi-
ton to these depredations, other
game and fish laws are being con-
tinually violated. Fish are being
taken from the streams and trap
pers are catching various animals
are that protected, principally bea-
yer. Recent decisions, imposing
heavy penalties, should be timely
warming to parties who insist IN
disregarding the laws and the will
of the people, that the risk they are
taking is a mighty big one, COM
pared with the gain they are getting.

S. w. Allerton Dies
in Los Angeles

S1mucI w. AilertOn, mllllOnalre
mining man OF Chicago, died in Los
Angeles, February 22nd. Mr.. Aller-
ton was the sole surviving owner
of the old Sylvanite nine at Gothic.
and the town was founded at the
time this mine was purchased by him
and Mr.. Avery, of Chicago. The
sylvanite property was discovered
by the Jennings Brothers, pros
pectors from Canon City, and was
bonded to Obediah Sands, bank
rupt hotel man from Chicago,
through whom the sale was made
to Al!crton.
The mine proved to be bonanza
at grass roots and ore worth a thous-
and dollars per sack was shipped
out in car lots to the smelters.
The ore consisted principally of
native, brittle and ruby silver,
and solid chunks OF this was taken
ont of the mine, weighing over
Eve hundred pounds, two-thirds
OF which was pure silver. The new
mine owners putin a bank Of their
own and erected .smelter for the
treatment of ore from the mine.
Sands was said to. have made sixty
thousand dollars ont of the Sylvan
lite deal, paid off -his hotel bills IN
Chicago and with Mr.. Holmes went
into the merchanile business at
Gothic urder the firm name of
Sands Il Holmes. subsequently
Mr.. Sands sold out in Gothic and
sccured4an option of the coal land
now operated by the c. f. & l.
company lat Crested Butte, cold it
to the Durango Trust company,
which. still owns. it land receives a
royalty on all coal mined. Mr.
SaRds-returned to Chicago where
he has become millionaire from
handling duiry and creamery pred
ucts.
Mr.. Avery, who was president OF
the Elgin Watch company when he
bought into the >Sy!vanite mine,
died some years ago, and his wife
became 'dementcd number of years
prior to that time and committed
suicide by jumping over Niagara
falls. The oldest son, Charles Avery,
who had charge Of the Gothic bank
and was manager of the mine, was
accidentally killed here by being
thrown from a horse, and Frank
Avery, the younger son, survived
but brief time, becoming mentally
unbalanced thru heritage which
ended in death. An only child of
Charley Avery, a daughter, is said
to be the sole heir and only surviv-
ing member of this wealthy Chicago
family.
Mr.. Samuel w. Allerton has been
an extensive mining operator in the
United States, Mexico and Alaska.
He was an owner in the Homestake
properties and was w ared a judg-
mcnt Of over a million dollars in a
lawsuit with that company. Since
retireing from business he had made
his home in Pasadena, California. :

shadows The light OF the sun was
fading when there occurred the one in
cident of our journey. 1t was not OF
real Importance. but think it made
an impression on all of US. The road
along which we were driving came
suddenly out into an open space. and
here in front of shack of the rough
est description man was engaged In
cutting logs AS we passed he glanced
up at US. and his face was like thar OF
some medieval prisoner-a tangle of
wild beard. a mass of grayfsh hair
and among it all pair Of eyes which
seemed TO glare forth hatred. There
was something ominous about the
wolfish face.
1t was already dark when we arriv-
ed at the house, a long. low building OF
surprising spaciousness, set literally
among the pines. the fragrant branch

the windows.
We went in. and while dinner was

MURDEROUS PRIESTS
CURSED IN CHURCH
Formally Pronounced
on Three Chained and Con-
yict.Garbed Men.
rHv C.ble 20 The Tribune. ]

Odessa. Jan 29.-An unusual and
striking ceremony was witnessed few
days ago in the Catholic church of
Petrikoff. Poland. II was the formal
accommodation OF three monks con-
cerned In a notorious scandal and muir
der In a monastery at Yasn Cora and
sentenced 10 terms OF Imprisonment
nearly two years ago.
Church and altar were draped In
black. and the altar was lighted with
black candles. At the conclusion Of the
brief liturgy prescribed for such rites
anathema was pronounced on the three
monks, who. under police guard, had
stood during the ceremony clad In long.
white penitential cloaks. These were
now roughly removed, revealing the
three accommodated monks in the
earb OF convicts and heavily chained.
They were forthwith removed 10 com
riete their terms Of penal servitude.
The chief culprit alone betrayed
signs Of remorse, piteously beseeching

MOVE TO AMEND
RESERVE MEASURE
Spousors for Law Want to Attract
Small Trust Companies and
Savings Banks.
IRON The Tribune bureau J

Washington. Jan. 29.-Serious con-
sideration Is being given by the spon-
sors for the federal reserve law TO the
advisa bility Of certain notifications
which would make membership in the
federal reserve organization more at
tractive TO the smaller trust companies
and savings banks.
Thus far the disposition of banking
concerns Of this character to enter the
reserve organizations has been limited
largely 10 the larger trust companies,
and there appears 20 be some feeling
that the requirements with regard to
capital in proportion 10 population
which have always applied to national
banks. are such as to work hardship
on trust companies and savings banks.
II II is decided 10 try 70 amend the
federal reserve law. that provision
which for three years makes only ma
tional banks eligible as receivers OF re-
serves probably will be so modified as
10 include trust companies which have
entered the federal organization. After
the expiration of three years all re-
serves, aside from those kept in
banks own vaults, must be kept in the
federal reserve banks.
