PULSEOF WESTERN PROGRESS Big 0il Strike at Florence the Richest Ever Made in Colorado Fields, FLOWS LIKE A PENNSYLVANIA GUSHER Holy Terror Mine In Litigation—Dairying in South Dakota—Another Good Strike at Leadville—General Western News. The Union Ol company, which Is now oper- ating at Florence, made the richest strike in the way of oil ever made before in the Colorado oil fields. While the work was steadily progressing, says a Florence spe- clal to the Denver Times, a flow of oil was struck with a 50-pound pressure, while all former strikes have not been stronger than nine ounces. The company's expert states that the flow 18 not unlike those of Pennsylvania. The pressure was tested by endeavaring to force water into the well. It was found that by this experiment the water was thrown some fifty feet into the air. The well in which the strike was made 18 situated at Coal Creek, a camp about two miles from this place. * The strike has created quite an excitement in this locality, and the people are gathering from all points near by to inspect the find. ~A party returned from the place report that the pressure is fully as great as the Pennsyl- wvania oll wells. The company is making arrangements to bulld an extensive plant in the district to bandle the immense amount of ol which will be henceforth produced. ', LEADVILLE'S NEW YEAR GIFT. The strikes did not end with the old year. January 1, 1895, was ushered In with a discovery of mineral which s of consider- able mportance, says the Leadville Herald- Democrat, indicating, as it does, the exten- slon of the ore bodies of the Little Johnny westward from what is known as the basin #n which, at a greater depth, is found the sich bonanza of the Johuny and Vinnle. This time the strike was made In the Sambo shaft, a location made in 1889 by T, C. Stebbins, who Is at present managin, the property. The old shaft had been al ready driven down 160 feet when the new work commenced, and twenty-five feet ad- ditional was sunk when a body of ore that covered the bottom of the shaft was opened up and sunk into four feer, with still no bottom. The assays show one and a half ounces in gold and five ounces in silver. The formation appears to be dipplng toward the north and east, into the Little Johnny and Vinnle basin, thus demonstrating the con- tinuity of the ore westward. Mr. Stebbins is a prominent mining man in the west, where he has been operating for the past quarter of a century. He is one of the ploneers of the camp, coming here in 1878, In the early 808 he removed to other localities, and has been engaged In extensiye operations in Idaho, Nevada and Utah. The fame of the gold belt, however, reached the cars of Mr. Stebbins, and he soon joined the grand army of those who returned to their first love. here are good prospects in Idaho and Utah,” sald h), “but capital cannot be in- duced to come in there. There b5 nothing in sight o allure it. Here, however, it is different. Leadville Is, in fact, the only min- ing section in the west where capltal can be induced to luvest in mining enterprises. It is the only wmining camp in the west where there is an assurance of success.' GREEN MOUNTAIN GOLD. From Gold basin to the Cochetopa \lmost every gulch has one or more log cabins or tents, and around the Denver City mine quite & little town has been bullt and a postoffic established. Iris, the new name of the town, contains about thirty-five houses, and the lubabitauts are very Industrious, full of Bope and energy, writes a Denver News " ynd«nl‘ The Denver City mine is | situated in a wide gulch, with several large springs of fine water. Several good wagon roads lead to the town from different direc- tlons and more are® contemplated. Iris {s twelve miles to the southeast of Gunnison. A good wagon road connects with that city. A telephone liie has also been established between this place and Gunnison. Every day brings new arrivals with their pack outfits. Experts sent out from Denver and Ouray have made thorough examinations of the district and expressed themselves as being highly pleased with the showing. As- says made from different properties run from $10 to $2,000 in gold. The country embracing the Green mountain district consists of low hills, ridges and gulches. It s one of the most favored spots in Colorado for mining throughout. the entire year, the hills being 50 low that snow will interfere but very little. Wagons can g0 any place over the hills without difficulty. The country is barren, but timber for mining and building purposes is easily accessible. The general formation of the district is schist, porphyry and quartzite. A large porphyry dyke passes through it from north- west to southeast, which is plainly visible, and float is thrown out over the hills for miles, ““HOLY TERROR" IN LITIGATION. The famous Holy Terror mine, which 1s just now causing so much talk in mining circles on account of the great richness of the ore taken from it, has become involved in a lawsuit, says a Chamberlain special to the Minneapolis Tribune. It appears that several years ago the ground covered by this mine was located by Jacob F. Reed, Willlam Franklin and Thomas C. Blair. Reed subse- quently died, and Thomas C.-Blair, who Is married to one of his daughters, ‘was ap- pointed adminstrator of deceased’s estate. When the time rolled around to do the an- nual assessment work on the varlous loca- tions owned In part by the estate he did not think enough of the Keystone lode No. 3—now the Holy Terror mine—to spend any money upon it. ~ Accordingly the ground was not represented. Last summer, however, by a lucky accldent a daughter’ of Wililam Franklin found the ledge on the location which has made the mine famous as a gold producer. The mine was at once relocated by Thomas C. Blair and William Franklin under the name of Holy Terror mine. Within a short time Blair and Franklin deeded a one-half interest in the mine as payment for the erection of a stamp mill on the property. It is contended by the attorneys for th heirs of Reed that, although the mine was subject to relocation for fallure to do the annual assessment work, the fact that it was not relocated by strangers, but by the owners of two-thirds of the old location, even though under & new name, all the work per- formed by the partles to the old partnership makes the title of Reed's heirs good; and, further, that as one of the partles was ad- ministrator of the estate of Reed, his acts are binding upon him as an administrator. The case will present this new question to be passed upon by the courts. TO DEVELOP DAIRYING. The dry season for several years, coupled with the low prices for grain product, has begun to turn the attention of South Dakota farmers more extensively to dairying, says the Sioux Falls Argus-Leader, and as a re- sult the past few months have seen a number of local conventions, or farmers' institutes, 50 called, at different points over the state to discuss the question of dairy products. Mauy of these conventions have been at- tended by Prof. Wharton of the agricultural college at Brookings, who Is taking an active interest in the movement, and attends sup- plied with the necessary machinery for les- sons in practical butter making, and is earn- estly at work to develop dalrying in this state,, As an outcome of the numerous local meet- ings D. W. Dake of Wessington, who fn 1874 was an active promotor of the National But- ter and Egg assoclation, yet in existence, has called & meeting at Huron to perfect a state dairylng assoclation. COLORADO LIVE STOCK. The day may never return in Colorado when a round-up of 80,000 head of catcle will result from a day's drive, but the breaking up of the big range herds has made no de- crease In the sum footed up to the eredit of the business at the close of the year, says the Denver Republican. It Las been accepted | for several years that the farmers are the | true cattle men in the state t'day, and the figures for 1894 prove that they managed the industry well. A showing of 1,169,220 head of cattle, nearly 260,000 more sheep, and 40,000 hogs is mot bad for a state that went out of the stock business eight years ago, Both for the assoclation grower and the farmer, the cattle business has been a good one this year, as compared with years past, a small percentage of loss and a heavy one of calves being reported by both classes, and prices, while low, have held pretty steady and the market been strong at the selling times. Sheep men have suffered heavily from the low prices of wool, and in many districts the freight and marketing expenses attached to this product have been almost ruinous to the industry. But with the profits of the past to encourage them to hold on to their flocks, growers of sheep are glving more attention to the feeding of withers and salo of lambs for muttons. An estimate of $300,000 is placed on the year's clip. THE GOLDEN FLEECE. Development on the Golden Fleece, says the Lake City (Col) Times, has continued steadlly during the past year, and as a re- sult a great deal of ground is now opened up, and to an extent that guarantees to the owners continued dividends of 2 per cent per month for the next year and a half. De- velopments below the lowest level, which have recently been made by sinking a winze, show that the ore continues down in as good quantities as has ever been shown up in the mine. Machinery is now being purchased of sufflcient capacity to sink this winze to a depth of 500 feet, which will be done as fast as practicable. The output for the past year has been in the neighborhood of $150,000, with a very limited number of the force working on” ore, the principal part of the force having been devited to development. The mine has now paid dividends steadily for the past twenty-eight months. PROSPEROUS TELLURIDE. Telluride was never in a better or healthier condition nor the outlook so promising and encouraging than at the present time, says a special to the Denver News. She has enjoyed an unprecedented prosperity during the year. Merchants of every description have done a thriving business. The three hotels have been taxed to their utmost capacity, and a stock company with a capital of $35,000 is now being organized to build a large brick hotel on the old Watson house site on Main street. It Is calculated to have this struc- ture completed by early spring. There {8 scarcely a vacant dwelling house in the town and several new ones are under course of erection to accommodate families who have decided to make Telluride their home. New business enterprises are starting up wherever a storeroom s available and doing a profitable business. GOVERNMENT IRRIGATION, The growth and development of the coun- try tributary to Idaho Falls has probably been equal to that of any section of the state, says a correspondent of the Boise Statesman. In 1884 the Eagle Rock & Willow Creek Water company, including the Anderson canal, was organized. It appropriates 100,000 inches of the waters of the Snake and covers 75,000 acres. This was the first attempt to bring the arid lands of this section under cultivation. Since then the Great Western and the Idaho Canal companies have com- pleted systems covering nearly 75,000 acres each. ~An extension of the Idaho canal through a part of the Fort Hall reservation is about to be undertaken by the government; and the allotment and final settlement with the Indians prior to the opening of the reser- vation, it can be said, will occur at no dis- tant date. The strip of country from Idaho Falls to Pocatello, including a large part of the reservation lands, is a flat, open sage brush plain, with scarcely any settlement ex- cept near Idaho Falls and Blackfoot, where the settlements are quite extensive and of a permanent class, THE LEITER MINES, One of the least talked-about, yet the most prominent group of mines in Southern Mon- tana, is that which is known as the Leiter mines, says the Miniug Reporter. They are located on Wisconsin croek, a tributary of the Ruby river, and about seven miles from Sheridan, which is the second largest city In Madison county. The group consists of fifteen mines, all of which have been patented and three of them are now being extensively worked. These are the Gray Eagle, the Sher idan and the Champion. Besides the official force, there are 106 men on the pay roll at the mine and mill Mhe development of the mines consists of a 1,300-foot tunnel on the Gray Eagle and 700 feet of tunneling on the Sheridan, tap- ping the ledge at a depth of 250 feet. From the intersection of the two tunnels a shaft bas been sunk 200 feet and a further 100 feet has been started. At this depth the ore vein on the Gray Eagle is twenty-four feet wide, with a fine pay streak of about one-third of that width. NEBRASKA. The Columbus police force has been put in uniform. The Stanton County Teachers assoclation will meet at Pilger February 23. Osceola musicians will give a charity con- cert on the evening of January 26. Mr. E. W. Roscoe has succeeded Mr. O'Connor in the management of the Swanton Record. The Nebraska City papers declare that the condition of the city jail is a disgrace to the community, A Dbig wolf drive In the neighborhood of Hubbell resulted in the. capture of three of the varmints. J. B. Green & Scns’ hardware and furniture store at Dewitt has been forced to close by the hard times. E. T. Gardner of Arcadia has been ap- pointed surveyor of Valley county to succeed the late William Hill. Thomas Mcrris of Westerville will be 101 years old on January 15. He is a native of England and came to this country in 1872. Children playing with fire were responsible for the destruction of the barn of James Davis of Ansley, together with all its con- tents. C. and E. Baton of Dorchester have been held for trial on the charge of stealing hogs from the slaughter house of W. 8. Chemlier of Crete. A garrison of the Regular Army and Navy union has been organized at Fort Robinson, under the title of the John H. Alexander garrison. Henry Martin of Fairbury has been ar- rested on the charge of selling liquor without securing the consent of Uncle Sam. The al- leged offense was committed at Diller. The residence cf A, Jacobs, near Elba, was destroyed by fire within a few hours after ho had removed his family to a new house. This 15 the tenth time in seven years that Mr. Jacobs has suffered by fire. There are 202 boys and identically the samo number of girls enrolled as students in the Crete schools. During the month of De- cember there were 141 boys and 141 girls who were in attendance every day, John Tempany, the rustling veterlnarian at Fort Robinson, has added to his other duties the publication of a newspaper known as the Assembly, and deyoted to the Interests of the people of Fort Ribinson and all persons who transact business with' them. J. W. Melntrye, who was elected one cf the supervisors of Webster county, filed his bond with the county ‘elerk instead of with the county judge, as required by law, and so lost his job. The old’ supervisor discovered the mistake, flled a new bond, and will con- tinue to hold the plave to which Melntyre was elected. ! v Because <f his failyre to go to the post- office in the morning, . A. Walker of Falr- mont is loser $79. Walker was holding an auction sale of hogs and he disposed of a particularly fine sow' for When he went for his mail that' nlght he found a let- ter from an lowa maff offgring him §300 for the p-rker, but it was, toa late. Twelve-year-old Marguerite Force of St Paul lost a letter on het way home from the postoffice and was told thut it was a criminal offense. She became ' fmpressed with the idea that she would bé taken to jail for the crimo and started to run away. When her parents discovered her absence searching parties were organized and the child was found near RElba, twelve miles from home, in an exhausted condition, Mrs. Warney Thomas was burned to death at her home at Bloomfield. It is thought that she had spilled gasoline over her clothes, and that it had taken fire from the stove. When the nelghbors found her ghe had almost succeeded in extingulshing the flumes, but she was burned to a crisp from head to foot. Mrs. Thomas lost & child In the Pomeroy cyclone a year ago. 10WA. of Glidden, is dead. Des Moines has made arrangements for a race meeting, September 3 to 1. Towa photographers will meet Andrew Aaron the civil war a veteran of in annual | vession at Des Moines Jenuary 30 and 31 There is & famlly of heavyweights living Wesley. Freeman Ash weighs 2413% pounds aud his wife weighs 214 pounds. With their nine children tho total welght of the family is 2,468 pounds, an average of 224, Rock Raplds water works and franchise have been sold to Joel W. Hopkins of Grain- ville, Til. Burdette Bissel of Waterloo shot him- self in Florida by an accident while in a boat hunting near Lakeland. The Upper Des Moines Editorial associa- tlon will meet in an annual session at Ne- vada January 31 and February 1. Charles A. Schur, an aged citizen of Bur- lington, was killed by a freight train while walking on the tracks on his way home. Twenty-five hundred additional volumes have been ordered for the Des Moines city library, bringing the number up to 16,000. Mrs. Hanna Hitehcock has brought suit against the city of Cherokee for $15,000 for damages sustained through the negligence of the city employes. Chiefs of police have been asked to look out for two boys, aged about 13 and 14, who stole a couple of horses at Lamoni and have disappeared with them. Mike McKenna and wife, who were mar- ried at Clinton on New Year's day, are spending the honeymoon in jail, on the charge of stealing a number of blankets and robes from a buggy outside a church. F. P. O'Hara & Co. of Oskalcosa haye been sued for $1,000 and $5000 damages by a clerk, who claims that he was wrongly accused of taking cash from the money drawer, and alleges that he was scared into making the payment of $1,000 to sezttle the matter. . Mrs. Steinmetz of Radcliffe, In Hardin county, declares that she married President Grant in 1851, and that at his death he left her a large estate. She also thinks that a pension of $2,000,000 awarded her by Presi- dent Harrison fs stored in the county court house, and she wants to use the Interest on the money. Arrangements are being perfected for the erection of a building to the memcry of the late ex-Governor Kirkwood in the grounds of the Hamilton White college at Oelwein, The building will be used for educational pur- poses, and will be known as Kirkwood hall, It is to be erected by dcnations and by the sale of portraits of the ex-governor. SOUTH DAKOTA. Some new artesian well machinery is on the way to Brule county, which will soon add to the number of wells in this county. It is estimated that three and a (hird mil- lion acres of arid lands in South Dakota have ecn reclaimed by Irrigation, at a low cost. The value of these lands before irrigation was estimated at $77,000,000, while now they are rated at nearly $300,000,000. Information from Rosebud and Pine Ridge agencles Is to the effect that criminal assaults by Indians are becoming alarmingly frequent, and the worst feature of the matter is that in almost every case little Indian girls from 8 to 12 years old are the victims of the burly Indians. C. W. Huntley of Edmunds county, while digging a cellar a few days since discovered a deposit of soft coal. He has taken several wagon loads out and the Milwaukee Railrcad company are making the experiment of using it for steam purposes. The mine is only seven miles from Ipswich, and the quality appears (o be as good as the Iowa soft coal used by the railroads. The Deadwood Independent cautions the public against the Gem theater, which it describes as the lowest kind of a bawdy house. It says the police and city authori- ties will give no protection whatever, as many victims can testify. It is customary with the management to send out its agents to decoy girls into this dive under the pre- tense of making engagements for legitimate theatrical work. They sometimes go so far as to represent their bagnio as a “hotel” and engage girls to “wait upon tables.” COLORADO. From a gold output in 1890 of $4,016,220 Colorado's production has risen to $11,300,000 for 1594 In the Black Diamond mine, Cripple Creek, a recent strike is credited with reyealing ore worth 260 ounces In gold per ton, taken from a two-foot streak. A strike 1s reported in the Copper King lode, Georgia pass, Park county. The as- says run from 35 to $200 per ton in gold The blowout of the Copper King is a &reat one, says the Fairplay Flume, already known to cover 40x400 feet, and it scems as if the vein i once properly located will be a big and profitable mine. The shipments of frult from Canon alone the season of 1894 amounted to $125,000, of which $50,000 were winter apples shipped to Denver, Pueblo and Leadville. One of the revelations of 1894, according to the Creede Sentinel, s the wonderful gold values developed in the mines of that district, added to which there Is one important copper find and an increase in the lead values of the ores. The Gold King company, San Miguel county, recently shipped 2,353 ounces of gold to the United States assay office, St. Louls. Four other retorts were recently shipped from this mine to St. Louls, one for 1,016 ounces, two for 1,492 and one weighing 5,024. Owing to the protracted strikes of the past year the total output of coal was greatly re- duced from some previous years, but the collieries of the Canon City Coal company are now employing a full force, with an average output from Nos. 1, 5 and 7 of 1,500 tons per day. It is stated that B. Bellottl, lessee on the Baker mine, at Georgetown, has discovered a vein of solid ore two inches In thickness, which returns 2,000 ounces of silver to the ton, This is one of the oldest properties in Clear Creek county, and has been in a dormant condition for several years. The value of the output of the Victor mine, Cripple Creek, for November was over $12,000, the greatest In the history of the mine, ' Against this the expense account was about $8,000, giving a profit of $34,000 for the month, The sum of $42,000 was re- celved from 130 tons of ore, which shows that it is very high grade. Fremont county s the ploneer fruit-grow- ing section of Colorado, and some of the fin- est orchards and vineyards of the state may be found in the vicinity of Canon City. Im- medlately adjacent to the city are more’ than 1,000 acres planted in fruit—three-fourths of it in bearing. The season of 1895 will sec this acreage increased, 600 acres to be planted in the spring. WYOMING, The flour mill at Saratoga, it is expected, will be operated next season. A barrel of natural lubricating ofl from the wells at Casper bas been shipped to Cheyenne newspapers, Lander, situated in the valley of the Papo Agle, and 135 miles from the railroad, has had ‘o prosperous year. The crops have been abundant and prices fully up to the average of other years. The Wyoming Development company, which owns the lands In and around Wheat- land, is at present working 100 teams In taking out a new ditch, which will bring another large section of country under water. The altitude of Wheatland Is the same that of Greeley, Colo., and abundant crops of all kinds hgve been raised from seed dur- ing the past season. m the more northern part of the state all orts indicate that the settlers are in fairly good circumstances, This is especially true of Sheridan, in the county of that name, where, owing to the building of a railroad into the town, there has been considerable of a boom. Aside from this, Sheridan Is in tho center of one of the finest agricultural sections of the state, and Is surrounded by a large, prosperous class of farmers, Rock Springs, the coal camp and the prin- cipal one in the state, can bardly be said to have enjoyed as prosperous a year as during 1893, but during the past four months busi- ness has picked up and the output of the mines largely Increased. A large number of men are now employed by the Unlon Facific Coal company, and It is thought that this year will almost equal last, so far as the amount of money paid out for wages is con- cerned, as OREGON, Mr. George Wright is feeding 4,800 head of mutton sheep at Olex. He will feed scme 7,000 or 8,000 sacks of wheat to them. He is also feeding 5,000 head at Ellensburg. Medford's new hotel will be a three-story structure, and will be supplied with eleva- tors, steam heat and electric light. When completed it will be the finest hotel in Ore- gon south of Portland, and will cost about $10,000 A movement at Halnes for a flouring mill seems likely o succeed. A subsidy of $1,600 and a block of laud Las been arranged. and W. M. Schmerken of Jackson county will probably accept it and put in a mill with a capacity of 100 barrels a day. A flock of about ffty Chinese pheasants have been seen on several occasions in the vicinity of Nehalem City. These are about the first that have been seen in that section, and if not molested they will soon become plentiful, Several pensions have been stopped in the vicinity of Grant's Pass. It is said a special agent In the guise of a life insurance agent came alonig a while back and roped in some of the old boys, who testified to their general good health, Mr. S. Potter of Sheridan has presented to the Grand Army post of that place an office chair which was used by Lieutenant Philip H. Sheridan when a second lieutenant of dragoons, stationed at Fort Yamhill, on the Grand Ronde reservation. A card publicly thanking Mr: Potter for the valuable relio is printed in the Sun. The Grand Army of the Republic “boys™ are very proud of the chair, and will guard it with jealous care, The work of constructing new ditches and deepening the old ones in the Lake Labish drainage district, north of Salem, which has been in progress during the pst two months, has been completed. Six miles of old and new drain were operated on,.an average of thirty, men having been employed, under the su- ion of Archie Mason. The main line vas deepened from three to four feet, and four new branches dug. Much new territory is thereby mado available for cultivation that otherwise would have been too wet. WASHINGTON. Aberdeen’s new rallroad is completed ex- cepting ballasting, and It 1s believed that traing will be running into the city by Jan- uary 10. The Prosser Falls Irrigation company has withdrawn all town lots from the market, ex- cepting those who desire to make actual fm- provements, At the Treadwell mine In Alaska thers are 365 stamps dropping and working 216,000 tons of oro a week. Tho ore averages less than $3 per ton. The Auburn creamery handled over 100,000 pounds of milk during the past season, for which it paid above $9,000, It paid $1 per 100 pounds for milk during April and 80 cents the balance of the season. The Sumner Iron works, at Everett, has completed a portable sawmill for getting out lumber for county roads. The city council of Everett voted $8,000 for its construction, but have been enjoined to prevent the Issuance of warrants ii payment. Two trappers passed through Smooth Iron prairie, in Asotin county, the other day, with about §160 worth of furs that they had ‘taken 50 far this season. They report six feet of 800w In the higher mountains and a good por- tion of the trip was made on snowshoes. The day before they reached there one of them shot a timber wolf. Late arrivals at Wenatchee from the Squaw creek country report the sale of the Gray o and Four Ace mines to a Colorado i _consideration, $40,000, Billy . & Wenatcheo citizen, interested in the Methow gold mines, hes bonded a mine situated not far from Virginia City for $10,000 to San Francisco men L. T. Erwin, the Yakima Indian agent, hag just returned from a visit to the Wenatchea Indians, for whom $20,000 has been set apart by the government. Brwin says: “Without scarcoly anything to wear, with starvation staring them in the face, and with snow two feet decp, these Indians refused to accept & cent or give me & single name so that the new lands could be allotted to them. The money is ready for them, but they will not take it, saying that us they were the original settlers they want reserved lands along the Wenatchee ‘river, already settled by the whites. They are the most remarkable people 1 ever met,” —_— ‘When Baby was sick, we gave her Castoria, When she was a Child, sho cried for Castoria, When she became Miss, she clung to Castoria, When she Lad Children, she gave them Castcrisy
