PULSE OFWESTERN PROCRESS The Eurlingtcn Road Pushing Rapidly Toward the Eig Horn Mountains. FERTILITY AND GRANDEUR OF THE COUNTRY The Story of a City's Prosperity—Mineral Developments and Materinl Progress n Al Directions—Summary of Northwest News, Reports from the center of activity on the Burlington Railroad extension in central Wyoming indicate that the surveyors have determiued upon the most feasible route to anda beyond thesouthern boundary of Yellow- stone National park, The construotion corps -~an army of from three to four thousand men—is aavancing rapidly on Buffalo, and has aiready struck the route traversed by General Crook in his famous Big Horn and Yelluwstone expedition of 1876, According to the Buffalo Bulletin the favered route of the threo surveyed runs is from Buffalo to the wplatenu opposite Fort Me- Kinney, kecping to tbe right of the divide between Clearand French creeks. 1t will-pass through Moshier canyon, cmerging on Clear creck near the junctionof the north and miadle fork: thence up and ucross tke north fork tothe hizn ground south of Clear creck uear the head of several branches of the Crazy Woman; thencencross the main_range by the Ten Sleep lakes and Broken Beck, down No Wood to the Big Horn, up aud across Gray Bull mountain, throueh tho Wood river mining country and Two Ocean pass 1o the southiern end of Yel- lowstone park. What memorios tho awaken in the minds of thousands of sur- vivers of the expedition azainst the hostilo Sicux which moved out of old Fort ettor- man atnoon on the 20in of May, 1516, Many of the rank and file nover returued. Otbers have since peacefully joined tho great mu- jority. Butthere remains n largo number Who may erc long traverse the route in pulace cars and view the scenes mado mom- oravle by hardships endured and by thrilling udventure and dosperate battles foupht with u wily and merciless foo, No adequate description of tho coun- try has been published in recent years; mno ‘writer could do it justice without actually traversing tho region. Hon. Joun F. Fine of Chicago, who accompanicd tho Crook e: cdition s correspondent of the Chicago 'imes, presents an artistic pen-picture of the country in his charming book, Patb and Bivouac.”” He was one of & party composed of General Crook, Colonel Mills, Major Burt, Lieutenunts Bourke, Schuyler, Carpenter, Lemley and balf a dozen corres- onden1s, who left the command on a hunt- ng and cxploriug expedition in the Big ains. “Cwo hours' ride,” , ‘brought us to the plateau the western slope, and we found a rich table land, carpeted thick with grass, bezemmed with countless flowers and Watered with innumerable streams. Thick pine forests covered most of the ground, but ihere were numerous natural parks laid out by the hund of nature with s grace and beauty selaom seen in the artificial works of laudscape gardeners, From the platcau we could see three or four snowy rangos, tho b from which rendered tho July atmos- phere ccol and bracing as the early May zoph- yrs of less elevatea lutitudes.” The party followed an Indiau trait that led them into the very roughest part of the Bir Horn = mountamns, After cawpiug in o lovely dell on the main branch of Goose creek, the party pushea toward tho prowy range. “As we uscended higher wo poticed several 1mmense layers of quartz, some of which zuve indications of goid, but not in quantities suflicient 10 justify a rush of people in that direction with the expecta- tion of growing rich in & day or a week. * * A gentleman in our party who had traveled much in Europe, particular'y in Bwitzerlaud, said that the canyon through which we moved reminded bim in almost every featare of the St. Gothard pass. Below us were the dark, green woods and golden streams, mbove us and around us wero the eternal gnows and tho tremendous roc from which and through which burst and thun- dered a thousand cascades, forming the headquarters of the splendid rivers that fertilize the slopes of that mountain region throughout its entire extent. Picturesque lakes, nous of them completely frozen over aud all of i-amense depth, so far as we could Judge, met tho eye at ulmost every half-mile, 80 that thero was no diflicuity inrecognizing tho inexhaustible reservoirs that fed the rountless torrents which sweil tao volume of the Big Horn and Tonque rivers.” Ascendiug the fumous Cloud peak the party viewed the immenso mountain rauges of ILdaho, Utah and Montana. Descending the west'slope they “struck into one of the loveliest canyons that can be imagined, in- deuted by a glorious stream and garnished by croves of cedur through ull its extent.” Six wiles fariher west they penctrated an- otber canyon and ascended u lofty wountain peak, “Lho crest being a buro rock which roso scveral hundred feet above the forest of Juuiper.”” “We hud actually crossed the Touge end stood upon the Westernmost out- post of the Big Horn mountains.

A Lost Mine Found, 1t 1s announced at Boise City, Idaho, that one of the rich “lost mines” has been redis- covered in Lomlic county, Late in the fall of 1504 I, B, Sharkey, Bill Smith ana O. £, Mulkoy, all of Salmon City, #ere up on & huntine trip to Fish lake.” One day, whilo starting a deer, one of the men accidentally discovered a marvelously rich deposit of decomposed gold quartz. So completely disintegrated had the quartz formation bes come that the gold could be washed out, and within a week tho threo men had sccured fifty ounces of the precious metal, Their supplies running short end win- ter comjng rapidiy on, the men concealod the cpening they hud made and returned to Saimon City. Early in the following spring they purchinsed an expensive ouifit and started out to work their bouunza, To their dismay thoy could not fud tho ledge. Tho storms of the winter had _obliterated cvery landmark, and s month’s hunt resulted fronessiy, Last weel William = Burrows and P, menson ran across the ledge, which thoy at once located. ‘Thoy will work the claim, having already refused several tempting offers. A Boise expert says the men have ono of the Fichest and most inex- baustible gold minoes in the world. A Wyoming Find, Somothing of a stampede has been created in Laramie by roports of rich silver discoy- eries on ast Fork creck, fifty miles distant. John Herman, the discover of the lead, and who has been a miner for thirty years in Colorado, California, Orcgon, Utah Terri- tory and Montana, states this 18 tho richost and biggest lead lie ever saw anywhere upon thie surfaco. “T'ne Chicago lead is sixty-five feet wide of freo gold and silver rauning togecher, with two side leads running parallel with it. These sido leads are from twents-five to fifty feet wide and carrying the samo ore as the main lead. Theseside leads are separated from the Chicago by a strata of blue gnei Between the Chicago lead and the East Fork is a space of about 200 feet, which is com- posed principally of granite, porphyry and blue eneiss. The Bast Fork lead is said to bo at_least 100 foet wide and carries thie same gold oro as tho Chicazo. Herman, the discoverer, says that the Iast Fork is’a better prospect than Leadville ever had to commence with. Salt Luke's Courthouse, The combination city and county building, tho corner-stone of which was laid in Salt Lake Uity last week, is in keoping with tho broad liverality and enterprise ot tho mid- mountain metropolis. Tho length of it is 272 feat, 1 width 140, and in hoight four stories and a basement. ' Tho height of the tower from its base is 250 feet, its base being forty feet square. In height tho basement is fourteen feet, the ilrst floor scventeen, the secoud floor cigiiteon, the third floor sixteen and the fourth floor twelve feet. The con- truct price is £77,057. All complote, includ- ing surroundings, will cost avout £509,000. Tho city will occupy the north end and the county the south end, cach oue half of the building. Tho building will have two elevators and numevous vaults, ana will be semi-nreproof, “T'be botler aud engine bouse will be erceted on a lot distant about 00 feet und will bo connected with this builaing by means of a tunnel into which all steam and water pines necessary for heat, etc., will be placed. This will avoid the danger of casualty vy fire and steam so common to public buildings. A most detormined movement against the Japanese has beon Inaugurated in southern Idaho. The people of thice towns have arisen enmasse and compelled the Orientals to depart under penalty of the whipping post or the rope. At Nampa, only eighteen miles from Boise, the citizens wore proparing to expel tho Japanese, numbering about 100, where three smallpox casas wer found in a hut.. This discovery causea a wild stam- pede, but they _were subsequently escorted out of town. Like treatment was visited upon the Japs in Caidwell and Mountain Home. Tue Japancse have within the past three months completely demoralized laboring interests in this séction of Iaaho. They are penniless and cannot spenk English, and have without doubt been brougntiuto the United States in direct violation of tho pau- per immigration law .

Chief Engineer Miller of the Great North- orn road boasts that the new line now ad- vancing to Puget souad is the finest con- structed on the contineat. 1t has the light- est grades and the least cury jiure of any transcontinental line,” said Mr. Miller in speakinz of the new extousion. “Weo could have put trains on the line to Spokane us early as July 1, and mado as good timaas the Northern Pacific trains, but wo decided to wait ontil August 1. 'From St. Paul to 185 miles of the summit of the mountsins the maximum grade is but B fect to the mile, and for tho rest of the distance 1t is ouly b3 feet. We have 810 miles in the Missouri dis- trict where the maximum grade doos not ex- ceed 21 fect to the mile. The oxtension hus been turned over to us in excelient condition, and when we got our trains running I expect we will make vory fast time,” A T L A monster tunnel under Mount Kelso and Gray’s Peak in Cloar Creex county, Colo,, is ranidly advancing. 1t is to be 25,000 feet, or nearly five miles, in length. About oue- third of the tunneling has been done, and the company in cLare of 1t promises to push tho work with great energy. Contracts have been wmado for electric plants to bo used at voth ends of the tunnel, and with this in- valuable aid v is expected that the tunuol will be ready for ratlroad tracks in less thun throe years. With the completion of this great engineering feat the transcoutinontul route will bo shortenea by 225 miles. ‘‘'nat Denver's commercial interosts will be enor- mously benefited needs o dcmonstration.
