Mrs. Harriet Is. Neelx.

Another beloved Princeton pioneer
has been called to her reward. Mrs.
Harriet b. Nicely departed this life at
the Northwestern hospital yesterday
afternoon. General breakdown, due to
old age, was the cause of death. Mrs.
Nicely was taken sick with pneumonia
last fall, which undoubtedly fastened
her demise, as she never fully regained
her strength.
Funeral services will be held Satur-
day at 2 p. M, from the family resi-
dence.
Deceased, whose maiden name was
Harriet 3. Goulding, was born in Pom.
eroy, Ohio, February II, 1841, so at
the time Of her death was "a years, IL
months and two days old. Fifteen
years later she accompanied her par
ents to Minnesota, and the family To-
Gated near ST. Francis. In the spring
of 1858 the family moved to Prince
ton. On March Is, 1860, the subject
OF this sketch was united in marriage
to Mr.. Robert M. Nicely, who answered
the Masters summons November 49,,
1913. The year of their marriage Mr..
and Mrs. Nicely removed to Iowa, and
resided on a farm near Muscatine UNI
til 1870, when they returned to Prince
ton. Mrs. Nicely is survived by one
brother, Jehn w. Gouldin:g, of Prince
ton; a sister, Mrs. Nelson Jesmer, Of
Seattle, Washington, and nine child
rem. The children are E. II. and Guy
Nicely, Portland, Oregon; Mrs. E. E.
Whitney, Mrs. c.. S. Neumann, Viii
liam, George, Robert and Thomas
Nicely, Princeton; and Mrs. R. E. Will
lard, Minneapolis Numerous grand
children and great grandchildren also.
| survive.
I Mrs. Harriet E. Nicely was a good
Christian woman, devoted wife and
mother, and kind and true neighbor
and friend, who endeared herself to all.
Market Drops.
The outside market on potatoes
dropped 10f Monday, and yesterday
witnessed another drop Of Sc. The
local market has dropped from So to
|8f on all varieties except Ohios and
Tmumphs.
Receipts here have been extremely
heavy on those days that the weather
permitted hauling. Buyers estimate
that more potatoes were marketed
yesterday than upon any previous day
of the 1856 season. The heavy re-
ceipts are probably responsible for the
decline in prices.
Shipments: from this point the past
week have been greatly in excess of
ny like period this season. On Saturday
t22 carloads Of tubers left the Prince
ton depot, and ,on Tuesday 35 were
Ishipped, while this morning 81 ears
left this point-a total of 88 for the
week

WORK GAINS DEPTH
At SEVEN TR0UGHS
COALITION COMPANY DEVELOP
ING DEEP WORKINGS SHOW
ING RICH ORE

The Seven Troughs Coalition has
begun work on the continuation
of the Bird Wine from the 1900
to the 1000 level. 1t is a further
step in the campaign of develop
ment laid out by the management
during the last quarter of the year.
This work has been FASTENED by
the discovery of a new and rich
orebody that was encountered IN
the north drift on the 1900 level,
about 1876 feet from the Wine. 1t
is now the intention to drift north
on the 1900 to open this Wine at
greater depth.
Since first opened the 1900 level
drift has gone 25 fe~t into the ore
shoot which ranges from 10 to 10
inches of $500 ore with occasional
assays as high as $4,000. A $12,-
600 bullion shipment was made this
week.

The Homerun Copper company IS
sho,upg for "A very active develop
mont campaign at the present time
being held in allegiance only by tne
deer snow in the vicinity of the
mine. However the management
has a force Of several men employed
and according to late reports from
them the results of their work
is most gratifying or the reason
that late developments seem to m
dictate that the real source of the
ore supply mas Eeen discovered. Al
least this much il indicated by OK
pIorations made on the east 2oo-
foot level.
Eastward from the shaft about
$50 feet is a large iron dixie or
assure, cutting through the lime
stone and late disclosures has Led
tie management to believe that
this dixie has played an important
part in the ore making process
which has been going on for ages
in that part of the Bristol district.
The company proposes to instail
power drills at the mine Just as
soon as the equipment can be as
sembled. Phoebe Record.

ID. l.. NJ, Manchester, England
Nearly all of the Goldfield COM
panies whose stocks have been made
assessable are now developing their
ground in a vigorous and compre-
hensive manner and in nearly every
instance the action of these COM
panies in making their stocks as
sessable, has resulted in placing
the properties in such a condition
that they will be enabled to earn
substantial profits as soon as they
are provided with facilities for
treating their low-grade ore at a
moderate cost. The introduction
of the flotation process, now about
to become an accomplished fact
here, will make available a local
market for the experimenting, re-
fractory ores of the district. Ore
of the character has been practically
a dead asset in the past, since there
has been no available les of
treating it, and the high t%ransporta-
ton costs have ~precluded its ship
ment to smelling points. 1t is
probable that the present year will
see production facilities provided
here for the treatment of a vast
tonnage of this ore and that several
properties that have heretofore been
unable to operate at a profit Will
become producers of important
rank.

B. F. j., Rochester, n. Y.-The
Goldfield companies controlled by
George Wingfeld are operated in
such a manner as to secure the
greatest measure of economy in OPP
Grafton and administration, all hav-
ing the benefit of the same corps
of experienced mining engineers and
biologists who have made the Gold
field Consolidated the greatest gol'
mine in this country. The CON
panies are not under joint manage
ment, but their offices are togeth-
er and all administrative matters
are under the direct supervision oil
Mr.. A. II. Howe, who is secretary
and treasure of all the companies
and whose system OF business ad-
ministation has been brought to the
highest point of economical enl-
cheney. BY this system the admin
istrative expens for all these COM
panies is held down to an unusually
low figure, and stockholders are al
forded every possible safeguard,
particularly in the matter of the
registration of stock, rendering
fraud or loss practically impossible.
No mining companies anywhere nave
better or more efficient management
and nowhere are stockholders better
