No. winze. located 250 feet n from the mouth of the tunnel, has m incline depth of 250 feet. The ore which has been mined therefrom had he same general gold range as that attracted from No. ? winze.

Re turns submitted by the company's as- ayer show a gold content ranging rom $40 to 300 per ton. Wherever Hack sulphides are associated with he ore the gold values are particular g high.

 To illustrate the mining prosperity at this time prevalent throughout the Weaver district and elsewhere in Yavapai county. the statement is made that the business Of the Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoenix railway has increased more than 50 per cent dur ing the last IS months. This road. built by the late Frank M. Muhpry of Prescott, with the object of affording an ore outlet from the Congress mine. has since become an important factor of the Santa Fe system. with which it connects at Ash Fork on the north and at Wickenburg on the south. By means of this railroad or by other rail transportation lines built by Mir. Mur phy. all of the important mining dis tricts of Yavapai county are brought into direct touch, with Prescott. the county seat and business center.

 The bad faith in the Jerome strike settlement leaves no room for doubt but that settlements which may be made through mediation directed by the federal government have no stand ing with the strike promoters and their followers only as ruses under which they can gain time to renew and broaden trouble zones. I. w. w. leaders in Bisbee have been free in public utterances with practical af- of this. declaring that any settlements which eX-Goveronr Hunt. acting as a mediator. might bring about would be right into their hand and simply open the way for new de- mands and new strikes.

These properties have won derful surface showings and some of them already have proven ore bodies. Without doubt this will be the center of great activity the next few months and some big mines are sure to be found equal to the two already in op- eration.

All Of these workings are in ore hay ing value of from s to $14 gold per ton. Where the spur and main lodges join there is an ore shoot of really phenomenal size. Samples taken along the strike of this shoot at an ap- proximate depth of 100 feet gave a gold content as high as $56O per ton, with a minimum of S48.70 per ton. Nearby the tunnel in which the sam pies referred to were taken is the com pany's nugget shaft. Some of the rich est free gold float ever found in the Weaver district was picked up below this shaft. During the period when Andy" Peterson owned the ground he shipped approximately S12,000 worth of this rich float. and prior to his ownership, away back in the sos. two Montana miners "high-graded" the surface successfully until driven out by the Apaches.
 The Vulture mine has produced about s3O,0OO.OOO worth of gold from high grade ore bodies-$5O per ton or better-and contains an enormous tonnage of low grade ore that samples from $S to $14 per ton. Modern min. ing and milling processes have given this ore a commercial value it did not have during the days of expensive ex- traction and reduction methods. Rail road facilities have likewise assisted in cheapening the cost of ore produc- tion as against the high cost at one time attaching it the long and labor

tending Coulee or dry creek, situat-
ed in the Province of Saskatchewan,

Mouse River with Des Lacs Lake, and
thereby causing the surplus waters OF
said river to flow into Des Lacs Lake.
WHEREFORE, BE 1T RESOLVED,
BY the Senate Of the State of North
Dakota, the House of Representatives
concurring therein:
THAT WE, The members of the Fiji
teenth Legislative Assembly Of the
State of North Dakota, respectfully
petition the President, the Secre-
tary of State and the Senate
of the United States to make arrange
ments with the Government of the Do
minion Of Canada for the turning of
the surplus waters of the Mouse River
at the expense of the United States in
the manner suggested in these resolu-
tions thereby saving the citizens of
this state from the damage and devas-
tations caused by the flooding of this
river.
BE 1T FURTHER RESOLVED, That
the Secretary of State be instructed to
send copy of these resolutions to the
President, to the Secretary of State.
to the Senate of the United States, and
to each of our senators and represent
atives in congress.

While she will be missed and the place
made vacant can never be filled, yet
in such death there really is no cause
for grief. Through her life Of sacr-
flee for others, she had fulfilled her
answer the summons of her Heavenly
Father.
Marguerite O. Vennaason was born
in Hensdale, Norway, July 27, 1850.
She was married to T. B. Hebranson
Feb. 10, 1871. They came to Blooming
prairie, Mimi, where they remained
six months, when they came to Dickin-
son county, Iowa, and moved on the
homestead north of Superior, where
they remained until 1912, when they
moved to Superior. A little over a
year ago they moved into a beautiful
modern home, that their later years
might be as comfortable as possible,
but God saw fit to call her to her home
above Sunday evening, Dec. 81, 1916,
after brief illness.
Funeral services were held Thursday
Jan. 4, 1917, at the State Line Luth-
eran church, of which she was a con-
sistent member, Rev. Akre of Esther
vile conducting the service and the
body laid to rest in the Lutheran cem-
etery. She leaves to mourn her loss
her husband, four sons, Olof of Wild
Rose, N. D.; Albert, Of Riga, N. d.,
and Ben and Elmer of Minot, N. d.,
and three daughters, Mrs. Geo. Kruse
of Minot, N. d.; Mrs. j. A. Bingle and
Mrs. Thomas Ruckman of Superior,
and twenty-one grandchildren.
The lessons you have taught us,
mother,
Will cherish well and long;
Oft We'll recall them to our minds
When in the thoughtless throng;
And may your spirit hover round US
Through life's changing way,
To guide our inexperienced minds
Lest we should go astray.
The relatives wish to kindly thank
those who so kindly assisted them and
for their sympathy and also for the
beautiful floral offerings.
Those from away attending the fun
eral were the four sons and Mr.. and
Mrs. Kruse of Minot; Miss Martha
Bringle of Sheldon; Mr.. and Mrs. Har-
Try Anderson and Arthur and Murros
Bringle of Estherville.

Flaten Will Visit New York.

Lafe Flaten, manager of the Minot
Suit and Cloak Co., will leave this
week for New York City, where he
will spend three weeks buying stock.
Business has grown so rapidly that he
will be forced to buy twice the amount
of merchandise he usually buys. Mr..
Flaten is sorry that he will be away
during the ski tournament, for he is
an old time ski jumper, having learned
the art in Norway. Most any day he
can be seen in the hills north Of the
city and he is regarded as one Of the
best in the amateur class.

Gas in Ward County.

Gas has been found in North Da-
kota in somewhat limited quantities
A few years ago gas was struck on
farms in the vicinity of Westhope and
Lansford, but the supply was not great
enough for commercial purposes. A
number Of farm homes in that vicinity
have been heated and lighted with
gas since, however.
Chas. Fuller, Ward county farmer
living between Des Lacs and Burling-
ton, struck gas at depth of 1870 feet
and he is now using it for cooking and
in heating and lighting his house

Death of Mrs. George Kruse's Mother
Mr.. and Mrs. George Kruse of the
DeVolne have returned from Esther
vile, Ia, where they were called by
the death of Mrs. Kruse's mother, who
was quite well known here, having Wis
tied at the Kruse home in Minot four
years ago. The following concerning
her death is taken from the Esther
vile Enterprise:
It is with sadness that we chronicle
the death Of Mrs. T. B. Hebranson. An
other name is stricken from the ever
lessening roll Of old settlers, and the
lonely husband left in the sunset of
life to mourn the departure Of his life
companion. Mrs. Herbranson was a
noble woman, kind and loving wife
and mother and good neighbor. She
was one Of those motherly women,
whom to know is to love, and who not
only filled her place as mother in her
large family, but whose mother love
went out beyond her own fireside.
