T IN Bret appeared at the Sanford homestead ragged and thin and hungry and ' wild-lookin- A Chinese tramp, something unheard-o- f In the an-nals of the West. He came up to the kitchen door and stood with hands crossed over his stomach. No one could mistake the meaning of that at-titude. "Give him a meal," commanded Mrs. Sanford of the Jap cook. Lin stayed. The Jap cook was leav-ing and Lin took his place. He cooked to perfection. The Saufords found Lin Indispensable. Three months went by. Lin grew stout and complacent. Everybody trust-ed lilm. The children loved him. Lin ouu, a treasure. i Sunford kept the money to pay his laborers In an Iron safe In his study. It was a good safe, and on Suturduys It held a great quantity of money. Mrs. Sanford had often been afraid. There were bad men In the hills, rustlers who, If they learned of It, would not hesi-tate to try to get tha contents. San-ford laughed at har. Be had his shot-gun and he wasn't afraid of bad men. He took Mrs. Sanford and the chll--' dren out to see the new Irrigation ditcb one Saturday morning. When they re-turned the safe stood wlds open, picked by an expert. The money two thou-sand dollars and a little more was gone. So was Lin. So was Sanford's favorite horse. There was a telephone on the ranch. Within an hour the sheriff and a posse had foregathered, ready to ride down the thief. Predatory Chinamen must ho mad a an ex h mulct of. But who would hare thought it of Lin? Mrs. Sanford and the children cried. They watched the posse, headed by Sunford, ride off. "Don't hurt hlml" Mrs. Sanford begged her husband. Sanford's Hps were set grimly. Be was a man who was slow to give his trust. He had given It to Lin and It had been betrayed. He was not feeling merciful. ' The trail led toward the hills, Into a barren district. Lin was a fool to have taken that route, the sheriff agreed with Sanford. They would trap him at the water-hol- e If they rode fast They did not spare their horses. The water-hol- e cam into sight. San ford uttered a shout The horse that Lin had stolen was browsing on the scant herbage. And there, at the water- -hole, apparently drinking, was Lin. Sanford deliberately aimed and fired. It was half a mile away, there was lit-tle chance of bitting Lin. They gal-loped furiously forward. Lin arose at three hundred yards tyiey could dl tlngulsh him easily la the thin at mosphere. Apparently he had been hit; he came stumbling forward, hit palms outstretched. Sanford, boiling with chagrin,, was about to Ore again, but the sheriff struck up his rifle. "We'll aim to take him alive," he said. Lin collapsed upon the ground at Sanford's feet. He was shot through the body. He was upon the point of death. lie turned his eyes appealing-l- y upon his master's. "You yellow thief 1" shouted San-ford, trying to fight down the feeling of pity that rose up In him. "No thief!" said Lin and died. They looked at one another, they looked at the body. The sheriff ot-tered an exclamation. "There's three bullet holes In him!" he said. It was true three bullets had passed through the Chinaman's body, each one of whl'-- would In Itsell have Droved mortal "Who the t" the sheriff began. One of the posse, wtio had ridden on ahead, came galloping back. "Come hysrl Come hyarl" he shouted. They spurred their horses. As they neared the water-hol- e they saw an-other form crouched down. It was that of a Mexican. He was qaite dead, with the top of tils head blown off. There were signs of a desperate struggle around the water-hole- . The bills that had been taken from San-ford's safe lay scattered everywhere. "He follered him, I reckon," said the sheriff, swallowing hard. Sanford made no reply. He was thinking of the day Lin had come up to the ranrti house door, and be bad taken him in. Bingham Canyon Meat Co.

ARNOLDS SWISS WATCHMAKER We Fix Watches That Cannot Be Fixed Elsewhere 520 Main Street "I Bingham, Utah Mining Man Reports On Park-Bingha- m I. F. Block, prominent mining engineer of Salt Lake City visit-ed the properties of the Park-- tsingnam Mining company in Butterfield on Monday last and made the following report : "The Park- - Bingham property in Bingham, through which the United States Smelting, Refin-ing and Mining Company is driving the Butterfield tunnel to connect with the lower workings of the United States Mine, is no longer a prospect it is a mine. There are a number of fissures which can be drifted on a dis-tance of approximately 150 feet or raised on about 125 feet, and the limestone entered. Fur-thermore pay ore can be follow-ed the entire distance to the limestone, where, without doubt, large beds of ore will be opened up. "In my entire experience, I have never seen more favorable conditions for development. The formation first entered consisted of big stocks of mon-zoni- te and diorite in which are intercalated small beds of lime-stone. A network of fissures cuts the whole block of ground. These fissures range from a few inches to 12 feet in width. "The first fissure of any prom inence, called fissure No; 1, has a strike of due magnetic north with a dip varying from 45 to 65 degrees. This fissure, meas-uring from four to five feet wide, traverses a limestone bed about seven feet thick included between diorite walls. The ore is of excellent grade. Some of it carries as high as 65 per cent lead, $3.20 in gold and 457 ounces, in silver. Bunches and streaks of pyrargyrite show throughout the whole mass, which should average not less than $60 a ton." The bed of quartzite next en-tered by the tunnel, explained Mr. Block, was 115 feet wide. This was cut by fully twenty parallel fissures ranging from 6 inches to twelve feet in width', not a single one of which but carried pay ore. The last 100 feet of the Butterfield tunnel, now about on the line separating Park-Bingha- m from United States ground, is now in a solu-ble Sappington limestone. "The last fissure," said " Mr. Block, "exposed in the limestone ninety feet from the Silver Shield line, earned from fifteen to eighteen inches of solid ship-ping ore carrying thirty seven ounces of silver, $1.80 in gold, 2 per cent copper and 15 per cent lead. "All of these fissures offer ideal conditions for prospecting. The calcite showing in the vein matter proves conclusively that the limestone lies above or it could not have been carried there by downward percolating wat-ers. In the" last fissure the streaks of pyrargyrite which show all through the vein mat--- ter carry as high as 1000 ozs. of silver to the ton. "The strength of the mineral-izing solutions must have been intense, else the quartzite and diorite, generally believed not to be favorable to replacement, would not be ore-beari- ng as they are. Likewise, the fissures show immense strength or they would not persist to this horizon from 1600 to 1700 feet below the sur-face." Good Butinett One day an Irishman was visiting school. In one tf the classes he said: "I will give a dollar to the boy who tells me who he tHnks Is the greatest man in the world." A Uermun boy raised his hand and said : "I think the kaiser Is the great-est man In the world." "Wrong." said tiie visitor. A JewlHh boy raised his band and said : "St. Patrick." "Right," said the visitor. "You get tie dollar." After he gave the boy the dollar he said: "Why did you say St. Patrlckr "Well. I don't think he's the great est man," said the boy.
