EMMETT GIILET INJURED.
Thrown From Motorcycle When
Machine Came in Contact With
Pig on Calmar Road.

sunday morning about ten O'Clock
a party of nine motorcycle riders
made up of Messrs. Emmett Gillet
Herman Teslow, Fred Barlow, John
Johnson, Victor Dahlsed, John erie
bel, Al Andersen, Martin Williams
and Harold Dinger left DEBORAH
headed for West Union. No thoughts
of accidents or trouble was in their
minds when they started out. The
first trouble encountered was by AL
Anderson, proprietor of the North
western Pantorium. He Jagged be
hind the other riders and was for
soften about until the party reach
ed West Union. After a wait of
some little time some of the boys
started back to look for AL. and
found him doctoring his machine
along side of the road. The machine
was sick and couldn't motor" an
other lick. The boys say Al. was in
fine humor? Finally Mr.. Teslow vol
unteered to pull AL. into West I'm
ion. Anderson's machine was hitch
ed onto Teslow's and the way they
hit the high spots was a caution. 1t
is a good thing AL. runs a pantor-
ium, because the boys say that po-
tatoes could have been planted in
the dirt that he accumulated on the
trip into West Union.
Everything went lovely on the
rest of the trip and the boys cover
ed about SO miles, until nearing
home three miles out On the Calmar
road when Mr.. Gillet ran into
pig in the road and was thrown vi
olently to the ground, with the ma
chine on top of him. He was stun
ned, but not unconscious. An au-
tomobile happened along and he
was taken home. DR.. Barefoot attend
ed him and found two ribs broken.
OF course Emmett will not be able to
officiate as city mail carrier for sew
eral weeks, and we imagine he won't
eat any pork while he is GONZALES
cling.
We understand this same mis-
.Chievous pig was run over later in
the evening and badly injured, this
time by an automobile.

Bar of Bullion from Crosby.

Charles K. Crosby brought to the city Tuesday from his mining camp on the Santa Maria, a solid bar of gold bullion that weighed twenty one pounds, tho yield of batch of ore run through tho mill on a testing for values per ton.
 The ounce value was not given pub licity, but that it will make the bar aggregate in value over 5,O00$ is be- lieved from the fine character of the output.
 This proposition is situated on the Santa Maria river, about fifteen miles out of Hillside station, and has assum- ed prominent consideration in recent months from the showing made in limited development. In fact, to the credit of the owner it must be admit ted he is not only practical man but also is he very economical operator contining his development to depth according to the resources available. A large amount of ore has been blocked out in a short time, and while the above run in the mill has proved grat. flying it but signalizes the possbili- ties of the future of this property as being attractive, to say the least. In reserve there remains considerable tonnage that later will be treated, the owner continuing to explore and as certain the extent of the shoot from which the high grade comes.
 MT. Crosby brought the bullion to the city in person, and later the same day returned to his camp to continue development. Tbis is the best show ing the property has made in it's his- tory, and the ore coming from the greatest depth reached, is regarded as carrying the strong belief that it is facing very interesting futare.- Prescott Joura.
