agement of lessees and is netting

bad that in the operation of a

enable the mines to pay dividends
instead of showing a constant

Watch Parties

The custom of watching the old
year out and the new year in was
very generally observed in Central
City. Many gatherings were held
to observe this time honored Gus
tom. Those that we heard of be-
fore we went to press were a
good crowd that met at the M. E.
church. A number of Elks that
met at the Elks' hall and whiled
away the time in dancing and SOC
ial enjoyment. A party that was
held at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
B. E. Seymour, and good-sized
party held at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. George Athanasion.
At least one-half of the inhabi-
tants of the town did not retire
to rest until some time later than
midnight, and the many good res
olutions that were formed con-
vinced us that the dawn of the
millennium was at hand.

Elk Will be Fed
Some Brought to Gilpin

Game Warden S. T. Harris, who
went to Denver last Friday to re-
port to Game Commissioner Par
vim the situation as regards the
elk in the vicinity of Hot Sulphur
Springs which have been driven
from the hills to seek food, was
instructed to go to Hot Sulphur
Springs Monday and arrange for
the feeding of the elk during the
winter months. He says there are
from 800 to 1000 of the animals
near Sulphur Springs and a larger
herd in the vicinity of Steamboat
Springs and that at least 400 tons
of hay will be required to feed
them until the ranges open.
Commissioner Parvin thought
well of Mr.. Harris suggestion
that three carloads of the elk be
brought to Gilpin county where
there is good range in the winter
and they will be brought here
within the next month or two
when they become tame enough to
load into cars. Some of them will
be placed in Boulder park and
some at Smith hill and the lower
end of Russell gulch.
While Mr.. Harris is in Grand
and Routt counties, Game Warden
Ed. Johnston, of Denver, will have
charge of this district.

Incidental Development

Prof. C. M. Thomas, of Beaver,
Pa, and J. c. Fleschhutz, of Den

spect the Incidental mine in Rus
sell Gulch.
Operations were resumed on
this property a few months ago,
and after installing equipment,
development was commenced and
the mine now looks as though ii
would become a good producer
within a short time. They are
pushing the third level east of the
shaft and indications are that
they are coming into a good shoot
of ore. Three veins junction east
of the shaft and this is the objec-
tive point. Some ore has been
struck in the course Of drifting
assaying between $400 and $500
to the ton. The Incidental is in a
splendid location and the outlook
for a permanent shipper is very
promising with the development
the company has in mind.
