ON COMS1OCk PROPERTIES
REPORTED BY SUPERIN1ENDENTS

crushed 66s tons of Monte Cristo ore,
$50 tons being taken from the stor-
age piles. The average assay value
of the ore milled was 1927 per ton,
and the apparent extraction was 81
per cent.
The report of pumping operations
in Gold Hill the past week, shows
that the water in the joint Crown
Point and Belcher incline has been
lowered 10 feet for the week, and
work has been carried on timbering
the incline below No. 1 pump. The
old pump rod and column has also
been removed from the north com
partment and the water now stands
100 feet below the 1900 on the in
cline. AS soon as all repairs have
been completed further lowering of
the water will take place. The 1900
station of the joint incline is also
being cleaned up and repaired and
further repairs made under the 400
station. Repairs were also made in
south drift No. 1 on the 400 level.
Crown Point has started to drive
a cross-cut from the top of No. 1
stope on the 400 level, to connect
with north drift No. 1 or the 1900
foot level. Repairs are also being
made in the Sutro tunnel connect
ing drift.
The Yollow Jacket company from
the surface tunnel workings extract
ed 90 cars of ore, assaying $S.67 per
ton from raise No. 3. Repairs were
made to the shaft and incline, and
the north compartment of the incline
was cleaned out forty feet, making
a total of 80 feet in good repair be-
! low the 1400-foot level.
The southwest drift on the 1900
foot level of the Overman to con-
meet with the northeast drift, was
extended for a distance of eight feet,
and two sets of timbers placed. The
total length of the drift is AZ feet,
and the face is all in quartz of low
assay value.
At the Imperial shaft, the three
companies operating there, extended
the west cross-cut from the south
| drift from the 200 shaft station, to
the 59-foot point, where the face is
in quartz and porphyry. Two days
during the week, the men were en-
gagged in making general repairs to
the shaft.
The report of the Caledonia Min
ing company today gives the inter
esting information that the work OF
cleaning up and laying track in the
northeast drift and cleaning up the
southeast drift on the 1200-foot Level
has been completed. At a point coo
feet in the southwest drift, opera.
lions have been placed underway ex.
ploring and prospecting on the ore
vein.-Chronicle.

the courts for several years and the
decision to introduce a bill results
from the judgment of the court of
appeal which in December decided
that the present law did not give
women the right to practice, and
that the only tribunal which could
give women such rights was parlia-
ment. The grounds for this judg-
ment were not that there was any
inherent unftness among women
which prevented them from appear
ing in law practice, but merely that
there never has, in fact, been a wo-
man lawyer in England. The court
held that this common law disability
was further supported by a dictum of
Lord Coke, issued owe 800 years ago
concerning those who had become en-
titled to practice law from time i'm

LONDON, Jan. 31.-There is talk
of appeal from the verdict of man
slaughter found by the literary jury
which recently tried John Jasper for
the murder of Edwin brood. The
more seriOus-minded members of the
Dickens society who expected a care
full weighing of evidence with the
hope of ending the controversy over
Dickens unfinished novel in which
Jasper and brood were the chief
characters are ~disgruntled because
the trial developed into such a farce,
land such a dull farce at that"
There were many who did not ap-
preciate the humor which G.. X.
Chesterton as judge, and George
Bernard Shaw, as foreman of the
jury, tried to inject, and the convict
ed defendant, whose part was taken
seriously by F. T. Harry, asserts that
there are ample grounds for an ap-
peal if for no other reason than that
the verdict was solely the decision of
Foreman Shaw, arrived at during
the luncheon interval nearly three
hours before the end of the trial as
the foreman himself admitted. Most
of the jurors had left before the
trial ended.
Walter Crotch, one of the counsel
for the defense. is even more severe
with Shaw. He declares that the
verdict was "typically Shavian and
therefore typically farcical and I'M
satisfactory. 1t also had the more
fragrant defect of being absolutely
untrue, for the jurors were not con-
suited as to it's terms"
A letter from the Bolivian Sur
vey commission, dated Abuna River,
November 25 announces that the
expedition commanded by Herbert A.
Edwards of the British army has
completed over 200 miles of the
frontier survey and incidentally lin
augurated a new era in exploratory
surveying" The expedition fixed all
of it's longtitures by wireless tele-
graphy from Porto VALID, situated
12O miles from the base of opera
tions. Time signals were received
every night by means of a rough re-
ceiving set and a long wire which
was rugged up on trees. Commander
Edward declares that these methods
will enable the explorer to dispense
with chronometers and easily and
accurately fix all l~ongitudes.

tablished in the case of Viscount
Ross, former cabinet minister, whose
death occurred recently. He drew

NEWS ITEMS.

The following items of local interest an
taken from the Natchez Democrat Of
Wednesday,:
Newellton, La, is the scene OF addi-
tional activity in oil development, and
residents of that sections feel that a field
will most certainly be developed.
Mr.. II. A. Dunn, prominent planter
of Newellton, has been of the opinion
that oil was i'm the locality, and feeling
thus, at once made arrangements for the
sinking of a well.
The work has been under way for sew.
eral days, and the drillers were yesterday
down depth of fifty feet.
The presence of gas is said to be simp-
" powerful, and the driller expresses
himself as being delighted with the indi
cations so far secured.
The well is located about One-half mile
from Newellton, on what is known as the
'Kenilworth" property.
The p: operty is owned by Mr.. Dunn,
and he is said to be supplying the neces-
sary funds for the work of development.
Reports from Lake st. John yesterday
were to the effect that the grand piece Of
levee work would in all probability be
completed to-day.
1t was thought that this work would
have been completed by Monday, but a
rain Saturday somewhat delayed matters.
Mr. F. B. Constant, the contractor, has
worked diligently on this great structure,
and was determined to have it up to
standard in ample time to take care oil
any water that might come down the
great Mississippi.
The levee is said to be one Of the larg-
est in the State, and it is believed will
prove one of the strongest.
Capt. James r. NARROW, of the vicinity
of Newellton, La, lie very optimistic over
the outlook for the coming season, and
feels that better times are most assuredly
ahead.
In speaking with representative OF
the Democrat yesterday, Mr.. NARROW
said:
''Our oats crops are simply ma nifcent
and it is beautiful sight to see.
"The breaking up work is well under
way and l believe that the crop work ID
more advanced than it has been in many
years.
There il no indication OF trouble from
high water this season and it would seem
that prosperous year is ahead of US a.
far as crops are concerned"
Mr.. Henry Hudnall, a prominent plant.
er of the Lake st. John District, is anoth-
er of the optimistic citizens of Louisiana.
In speaking Of conditions yesterday Mr..
Hudnall said:
Activity is the watchword, and it car
be seen i'm all directions.
1T is my opinion that planting opera
tions are further advanced this season
than they have been for many years, and
the outlook for good crop is most en-
couraging.
1.-The Lake st. John levee is abou
complete, and while there is no indica
ton of any water Of moment, the people
will rest easier in the knowledge that thi'
great piece of earth work is about finished
Viewing the future from all stand
points it would seem to me that there il
every reason to feel optimistic and to lool
forward to an excellent crop this season.
