From the Spcekane Review: The und-contest case in which-a family f£ mice played a prominent part has seen decided on the appeal to Binge Hermann, commissioner of the gen- land office at Washington. The are not mentioned in the deci- , but the man whom it was claimed 2 d the mice to establish a resi- dence in his bed is allowed to retain ion of his homestead, the rul- the Iccal land office being re- and the contest dismissed. A r feature of the case is that when the family ef mice was first men- t d it was contended that their presence in the bed of the entryman ergued an abandonment of the home- d, and the local land office appar- ily took the same view of the mat- ter. But when the decision was ap- peated from it was set up that the presence of the mice was an sument n favor cf the homesteader. Fred O. Grutt was the entryman,- having taken cp a homestead near Davenport three | S ago. Last August Jobn O'Neil uted a contest to the homestead , alleging that Gruct had aban- coned the claim, @!d not keep up a 4 us residence thereon, and that the only inhabitants of the shanty on the rsach were a family of mice. ‘tter hearing the case tho registrar and r ver decided that Grutt’s en- honld be canceled.

These fissures had been checked up by bitu- minous matter gushing from the bow- els of ‘the earth, and in this way the ccposits of gilsonite, as it.is now called, were formed. It is a singu- larly pure species of asphalt, and is now being mized in a Jarge way, the production of it constituting an im- portant industry. Tha stuff is nsed for muxing varnishes. For this purpose it is especially good, because varnishes made of it will net crack. ‘ Conspicu- ous streaks of the gilsonite run like strips of ribbon over hill and dale, so that they can be followed with the eye for miles. Some of this “gum asphalt,” as.it is popularly called, was placed in the hands of Prof. Day for analysis, and he found that its make- up was such as to suggest an animal crigin, at least in part. It is believed nowadays by scientific men generally that asphalts -ordina are derived from vegetsble matter. Such’ matter, being laid down in vast beds during the coal-forming period, subsequently underwent chemical p-ccesses.
