Tom Reed and GoIdroad District

A prospectus printed in black and red on yellow paper has been is sued by the Tom Reed -Goldroad as Soclation. It is full of instructive information and data concerning the district. It gives a lengthy list of all the corporations and prospects operating in that district Also a -piat of the area printed in different colors so that you can distinguish at a glance the holdings of each It is got up in such manner that people will take notice of it and file away for reference.
 On the Tom Reed the ore shoot opened several months ago on the lO13-foot level in the main Tom Reed workings has been explored to the west for length of 225 feet 1t has q varying width of from fifteen to twenty feet and a varying value of S22.50 to $40 per ton.
 The body of milling grade ore re- gently encountered 700 feet east of the main shaft on the 55O-foot level IS maintaining its values as the drift is extended The discovery was made in unexplOred territory, and is of additional importance by reason of the fact that it opens a prospect of ore yielding possibilities in a new section.
 Thirty-five feet of pay milling ore sums I'D the breadth of the cross cut on the 400-foot level of the Black Eagle from wall to wall. and there is no portion of it that does not sample to a pay milling average
 Thirty feet of the ore samples an average of s25 per ton and included Tn that thirty feet are fourteen feet of ore that samples s3O per ton Five feet of ore lying next to the hanging wall samples on an average of $7SO per ton. Drifts are now being run to the east and west on the vein. Shipments will soon go forward to the Tom Reed mill
 The shaft on the Big Jim is at the 100-foot level and the station is be- ing cut in.
 The formation has been changing during the past twenty feet, and is identical to the Black Eagle and United Eastern at the same depth. Stringers of quartz are breaking into the shaft. indicating the approach of vein material. The shaft is to be continued to the 3OO-foot level. where crosscuts will be run
 About twenty tons of ore are be- ing shipped daily from the United Eastern mine to the Gold Road mill the consignments representing a DOT ton Of the ore mined during the regular course of development work on the 460 and 565-foot levels. The average grade of this ore is s3O per ton. Last weeks shipment had value of $42O0.
 The drive east on the vein on the 46O-foot level continues to carry hlgh grade milling ore, while the drive west on the 565-foot level is at this time in ore of the highest average grade thus far opened in the mine

The Cameron Case

The case of Ralph H. Cameron versus Thomas F Weedin, registrar, and John J. i3irdrO. receiver of land office, an action in equity seeking injunction against them as officers of the land office to restrain them proceeding with a number of contests against 20 un- patented mining claims on the ground that the interior department has no jurisdiction to investigate unpatented mining claims in it's own office unless application for patent be made by the owners, which has not been done in this case
 The complaint alleges that any ac- tion by the land office is void.
 The court rules that if the acts are void as charged in the complaint. no injunction is necessary to protect com plainants rights, as a void act cannot hurt any one.
 This leaves the question still open

The prospect of an effective working or ganiZation to check the evils of wild cat promoting. to weed out the disre- nutable element in the brokerage bu- siness and to place the stocks of every metal property of merit on all the exchange lists has met with gen. eral approval.
 The three exchanges of New York and the Boston Stock Exchange have
 
 convention in San Francisco. With these acknowledged leaders Of the country taking a vital interest in the coming conference it goes without saving that the seven other exchanges which have been invited to partici- pate will not be without adequate representation. These exchanges in- clude those of Colorado Springs. Salt Lake City, Spokane. Philadelphia. Pittsburg, Los Angeles and san Francisco.
 The governors of the ten mineral producing states of the union Who have been asked to send official rep resentatives of their respective states have now nearly all accepted the m vitation. Lading mine owners ana the heads of some of the largest brok- craze firms, known wherever mining stocks are traded, are also respond- ing promptly and promising tnei nresence and enthusiastic support.

OVERHEATED STOVE
 CAUSES FIRE IN [ FAIRFIELD CHURCH
St. Paul's Episcopal Edifice Catches Fire From Fur
 mace Heat
Especial to The Farmer9

Fairfield, March 1.-Too much heat from the furnace, nearly caused a fire of dangerous proportions yester- day morning at St. PauIs Episcopal church, but a blaze was discovered before it did much damage.
 Wood was used in the furnace in the basement of the church yesterday morning, to get up heat for the morn come that the heat caused adjoining heavy wooden beams to catch fire and several of them were burning brisk1y before they were discovered. A few pafls of water extinguished the blaze. The church was filled with smoke and as a result, the services were held in the Sunday school rooms.
 The home of Charles Hoffman on Greenfield Hill caught fire Saturday evening when an oil stove was over turned. A bucket brigade was form ed by residents of that neighborhood and the blaze was kept in check un- til the hose wagon and chemical en- zine from Fairfield arrived The latter made remarkably quick run and undoubtedly was instrumental in keeping the damage to the house to a very low degree. The run is seven miles. Miss Olive Chase owns the house.
 The school board will meet to-mor- row evening in the office of Superin- tendent w. E. Smith for the purpose of considering the matter of a public Kindergarten. It is prophesied that the vote will be favorable to the es- tablishment of the Kindergarten which, if approved, will be conducted
