she might swear out warrant for the
arrest of the trespasser. Mr.. Gilbert
Chase, who was principal of a school,
Miss Miller was loath to act without the
advice of a competent person, but she
was very angry, partly because her
notice had been set at defiance and
partly because the young man had sue
ceeded in placing himself in a very IA
vorable position and her in very un.
favorable one. Acting on impulse, she
swore out the warrant, and Mr.. Chase
was arrested as he was leaving her
grounds. He furnished bail to appear
the next day for trial and was per.
mitted to go where he liked in the
meantime.
The next morning Miss Miller ap-
peared against the accused. stating that
a notice was nailed to a tree near the
entrance of her grounds giving warn

the prisoner If he was represented by
counsel, to which he replied that he
would conduct his own case. Then he

BUSTER SLATED
FOR ACTIVITY
Reports Circulated That Old
Mine at Elk City Will Re-
sumo Work Soon.

During the past few weeks there
have been strong rumors, originating
from authentic sources. to the effect
that the famous Buster mine at Elk
City will probably resume operations In
the very near future" says w. c. Nc
Mutt. the well known mining engineer
who has been located at Elk for the
past several years and who was called
to the county seat on business. This
would bring to the camp and to the
mining industry Of the whole county q
great impetus and would mean another
glimpse Of, and perhaps a permanent
return to the haicyon days of central
Idaho's early mining history. The
rumors are given credence in the camp
and we are anticipating some definite
news In the near future
There are also glad tidings anent tn ,
proposed electric plant which. according
TO plans. Is to be located on Red River
near its confluence with American river
and is to be designed to supply all
the properties Of the Elk and other adj
jacent mining districts with operative
and development power. Alfred Adams
Of Atlantic. New Jersey. Is one OF the
principal men Interested i'm this move
ment and has the project In hand The
advantage OF such o plant to all the
mines In that section would be inestim-
able. 1t would enliven many properties
there that are now in the lethargic and
dormant state.

time In American history aeroplanes
were used for accommodating purposes
In actual warfare at Vera Cruz. Two
naval officers few their machines at a
high altitude over the besieged city,
making a detour of the outskirts. and
reported their observations to Admiral
Badger. Contrary to belief. the Mexi-
cans have not concentrated their
forces in the immediate vicinity of Vera
Cruz. In a general outline of the
flight reported to the navy department
the men say they saw no great band
of federal soldiers along the various
railroad tracks They noted the burn
ing OF bridges and destruction Of other
facilities. and at no time did they see
more than twelve soldiers in one
group.

miners of the country is probable un
less peace is restored in the COLORADO
fields, where striking miners and state
troops are at war, according to John
r White, international president oil

ca, who was in Des Motnes yesterday
President White addressed an open
meeting of miners at COlfaX yester
day afternoon on the general mine
situation, and left last night for Pitts
burg, Kansas, to attend meeting OF
the Kansas miners. He said that the
question of a general strike would be
considered by the International exec
utiye board at meeting in lndianapo'
lis week from today.
Il have received word that arrange
ments have been made for a confer
ence in the Colorado fields" said
President White. This may result in
an effort to settle the controversy as
well as to prevent further trouble at
this time.
1T is an awful situation in ColOra-
do. All sides have asked for federal
intervention. Our people are de-
handing protection from the gunner.
While the arms of our people are
taken away under martial law, the
gunner are still allowed to go arm
ed and to handle their machine guns.
The state of Colorado is bankrupt,
and has no money to pay it's troops.
The strike in the northern Colorado
fields has been on for four years. and
the strike I'M the southern country
since last september
There is a great demand over the
country for a general strike on ac'
count of the Colorado situation. This
is true in the east as we'll as in the
west. Telagrams are being received
every day asking for the strike. The
executive board will meet in Indian
apolis a week from Monday, and the
question will then be taken up. The
international organization can order
the general strike If il is found adj.
visable We have 100000 members,
