He Had His Nerve

A large manufacturing concern
sent frequent and urgent demands
to certain delinquent dealer and,
being unable to get as much as a
response, sent representative to
personally wait upon him.
'Why haven't you paid your ac-
count, or at least written us con-
cerning the matter?'' the repre-
sentative asked.
My dear sir" responded the
delinquent, smiling, "those collec-
ton letters from your firm are the
best | have ever seen. | have had
copies made and am sending them
out to the trade, and it's wonderful
the number of old accounts | have
been able to collect. | haven't

was another letter in the series.

Gold Weather
Comes High

The city council last evening
allowed bills amounting to 1892
for coal hauled to the Chicago
creek intake of the city water
system. Nearly one third of the
amount was for the hauling alone,
the distance being more than
three miles up steep grade.
During the extremely cold
weather, and especially during the
absence of snow, it is necessary
to fire a boiler and force steam
through pipes which enter the
intake and raise the temperature
of the water sufficiently to prevent
freezing. Water Commissioner
Jones now has sufficient coal on
hand to last through any emer-
gency and has worked heroically
to keep the water supply in proper
condition thruout the protracted
cold weather

Centennial Mine will
Resume Operations

During the past ten days Lee
Fillius, former Georgetown boy,
has been making an expert ex-
animation of the Centennial work.
ings above the tunnel level. Should
the results be as satisfactory as
confidently predicted an early
resumption of operations on this
valuable property may be expected,
Mr. Fillius says that mines in
the southern part of the state
carrying inferior values are being
worked very extensively and re-
turn handsome dividends. He
thinks the Centennial should prove
of great value.

Getting Ready TO
Build New Wagon Road

j. J. Bonner of the Lombard
mine was in Georgetown Monday
comforting with the county COM
missioners in regard to building
the proposed wagon road from the
Lombard mine to connect with the
main road at the top of the big
hill This road if built would
be of great benefit to the Lom-
bard, Cumberland and other mines
in that section. The coming season
promises to be one of the best that
has ever been experienced in that
district, and the mine owners and
operators deserve to have good
means for transportation of their
products to the market

Capital LesSeeS
In Rich Gold Zone

There is renewed activity at the
now famous Capital mine in the
Georgetown district, with all the
lessees crosscutting to the foot
wall to get into the rich gold zone.
The strike recently made by
McCluskey and Convery bids fair
to become as important as the
Hanson strike of a few months
ago.
Recent shipments by the follow
ing lessees: Oklun Brothers, Bruce
& Co, Hanson & Co. and Hamil-
ton d Culbertson, show a decided
improvement in values, which may
be accounted for by the prevailing
high price of copper

buyer had to split it and carry it
in the shed after paying that price.
