Valuable to the Miners in Gil
pin, Clear Greek and
Boulder Counties

The United States Geological
Survey has ready for distribution
professional Paper "a dealing with
the Economic Geology of Gilpin
county and parts of Clear Greek
and Boulder counties. Honorable
Charles B. Timberlake, United
States Congressman, Washington,
d. c., states that he has number
of copies of this publication for
distribution to those who are real
ly interested in mining in the
areas considered. If Mr.. Timber
lakes supply of copies should be
insufficient to meet the demand, it
is quite possible that copies could
be secured on application to the
Director, United States Geological
Survey, Washington, D. G.
The publication deals directly
with the geology of the region in
its relation to the occurrence of
ores of the various kinds. The ore
deposits themselves are discussed
very fully as to the mode of oc-
currence, origin, composition, and
other features. Many of the mines
Of the region are briefly described,
and the paper is quite fully ILLUS
trated with pictures of country
rock, ores, mine plats, mining
camps, and other things of value
to the prospector and miner. The
work should be very valuable to
those who are interested in mining
within the area described.

State Geologist.

Suicides By Drowning
In Surging Clear Creek

John Sojoquist, aged about IS,
famous old character of George
towns early days, committed
suicide by throwing himself in the
waters of Clear Greek near the
White dam. He had been missing
since Monday, June II. and the
body was not found until Thurs
day night, July 26, when Alfonso
Corazza, returning to Georgetown
from work, noticed what he at first
thought was boat in the bushes
along the creek, but which proved
to be the body of the missing old
man.
In saloon fight in Georgetown
in February, 1887, Soioquist killed,
August Salberg, and was convicted
and sentenced to death. His
sentence was afterwards commuted
to life Imprisonment, and after
having served about fifteen years
he was pardoned by Governor Alva
Adams during his first term.
The deceased had no known rel
atives in this country, but had a
sister in Sweden. He had been
acting very respondent for some
time, and it was thought by some
his mind was failing.
About twenty years ago Sojo-
quist was injured by a rock slide
which almost tore off one of his
ears.
Coroner R. Fl. Pearce took
charge of the mans body and
brought it to Idaho Springs.

ICE


Ice is ,One of the cold, hard facts
of life that we are forever humping
into and one of the few things in this
world what it's cracked up to be.
Ice is a paradox. 1t is used by cold
storage men to make it hot for the
public, and it would be a cold day
for them if they didn't have it.
Ice was invented by Divine PTOvi-
dence to keep our rivers and lakes
from freezing to death. During the
summer it comes in chunks and goes
in a hurry. It is what housewives
and salOOnkeepers depend on in
July and fall on in January.
Ice is found in the stare of box
office clerks and on the shoulders of
society leaders. Married women
stand on it in their bare feet just be-
fore they go to bed 1t is used by
Americans to cool their cocktails and
by polar bears to cool their own tails.
Ice rides around in big wagons and
has a good time, and when it gets
tired Of life it melts and runs away.

velopment itself Is not, however.
great surprise, the chief surprise be-
ing that the American officials ore
i5le to obtain the messages as they
did the Zimmerman note of last win
ter regarding German overturcs to
Mexico.
The Swedish government, with the
monarchy, the aristocracy and the
army officers, has been rated strongly
pro-German throughout the war, and
Queen Victoria, in several public ut
terances, has proclaimed her German
sentiments as strongly as any Ger
man could. The Swedish people, on
the other hand, are reported as lean
ing strongly against Germany in the
more recent stages Of the war, par
ticularly since the unrestricted sub
marine campaign began.
Sweden's leaning toward Germany
was regarded AZ natural compile
ment to her Old fear of the Russian
autocracy, but the entente nations
held the hope that when the cause
for that distrust was removed by tho
revolution Swedish feelings might
undergo a radical change.
The suspicion has been current III
England throughout the war that
Germany was obtaining much irfor-
nation of military moment which
could not be secured through ordi-
nary spies, the spy industry, in fact,
having been pretty we'll stamped ort
here for more than year past, after
a few lessons taught by several exc
cutions in the Tower of London.
The belief that Lord Kitchener's
death when the Hampshire went
down was the result Of informatio /
transmitted to Germany of his depar-
ture has been persistent with many.
and it has at least the foundation
that his plans were known and dis
cussed at dinner tables in high So
ciety before he started.
