To Shin Ore Soon

j. NJ. Porter, a mining engineer
recently visited the property of the
Bethlehem Gold Mining Company, and
reports that about 1000 tons of ore is
bong blocked out for shipment
Harry Dudman. president of the
company has been on the ground for
several weeks, looking after the de-
velopment work and expects to re-
main here all winter. He reports
that the financial condition of the
company is in good shape.
Speaking of his Investigations En-
gineer Porter had the following to
say:
THE company had a good fissure
vein through granite and diorite and
saw a sample taken which assayed
$50 to the ton. There is another shoot
that carries lead. The lower tunnel
is about 500 feet long and there are
several shorter tunnels.
"In the lower tunnel the first ore
shoot was 100 feet long then faulted.
1t was from a few inches to three
feet of ore. After the fault it was
picked up again and followed 1870 feet
when the work at that point was sus-
pended. / think the company will be
able to ship ore that will run $40 to
$50 to the ton.
"The company has seven claims and
the property is well equipped with
buildings. A. II. Sweeney is superin-
tendent. He had a small force at
work when was there and he is
putting on more men,"

ings on the school house hill were
burned Wednesday night, the fire
starting, 1t is believed, from a defect
i've flue 1t was discovered by A. G
Gay who quickly aroused the neigh
borhood and had the fire alarm turned
in. The district fire hose was turned
onto the fire and it was under con
troll when the city fire department
reached the scene. The fire depart
ment was delayed on account of no
one knowing the location of the fire.
Mr.. Burke figures his loss on the
building at about $500 and his loss
of household goods at $500. None of
the furnishings were saved and there
was no insurance carried on them
Mr.. and Mrs. Burke were down town
attending the Walters meeting and
the children were at the schoolhouse
attending a party Joe Burke was at
home but was sleeping in a tent out
side the house. He was in the house
about half hour before the fire
was discovered and did not notice
anything wrong then.
Saturday a subscription list was
circulated by Frank Edmonds and a
considerable sum of money was Sc
cured from friends of the Burke
family to help tide them over their
losses.

FORGET 1T

If you know of fellow ahead of the crowd
leader of marching fearless and proud,
And you know of tale whose mere telling aloud
Would his proud head to in anguish be bowed
It's pretty good plan to forget it.
If you know of a skeleton hidden away
In closet and guarded and kept from the day
In the dark and whose showing whose sudden display
Would cause grief and sorrow and lifelong dismay
It's pretty good plan forget it.
If you know of thing that will darken the JOY
OF a woman, girl or a boy,
That will wipe out smile or the least way annoy
fellow, will any bright giadness cloy,
It's pretty good plan to forget it.
