Tho other day he leit here for Denver where he was joined by General Manager Dodge and together they journeyed to a railway business meeting at Kansas Citv. Ihe gentlemen had intended remain-ing away a fortnight but the existing condition of affairs caused Mr. Bennett to return sooner thsn expected. It may bo news to the public to learn that a three cornered fight between olli- - cials of the Ii. (. W. has been on for some time. Tho principals are General 1 assengo Agent J. H. Bennett, Super- intendent A. K. Welbv and Auditor T. Goddes. Within a day or so Mr. Welby has been issuing the passes and nat-urally enough the public is expecting something will drop. Rumor nays that P. J. Flvnn has been teiidered the general passenger agent s position of the It. . W.

Among those who were in attendance at the recent gathering of the K. P. boys in this city was Fred Eaton, the dude conductor of the Oregon Short Line who met with quite an ovation from tho delegation at the end of the line. Of all the Union Pacific corps at this point on the Union Pacific none are scoring a more enviable record than General Yardmaster C. A. Wolfe whose iiuilorm courtesy and affable manner has made him most popular with the patrons of the great system. A syndicate of eastern capitalists is to build and operate a cable road be-- ; 'weeu Philipshurg and Granite. Mont.

Another wonderful strike is reported from the Deep Creek country, a gold lead having been discovered carrying a streak of ore thai assays ly. -3 ounces gold, or '.'71,:il7 to the ton. The strike has been made by a pros-pector who is woiking for L. C Kar-ric-and Frank Knox. The man found float on a previous trip which he told Mr. Karrick about. The latter outfitted him anil gave directions that a thoroug search bo made for the lead. This was about two weeks ago, and this morning news was received that ore (Bingnani) was settlod for yester-day wnich netted frl'Ml a ton. Since tho body of ore was struck last January the mine has produced 410 tons of ore which has been sold i:i this market, and there is now 100 tons more on the dump which are awaiting better roads.

Tho property owned by the corporation consists of the Gov-ernor mine in Tooele county. According to Thomas Crane the pla-cer mining season in Cariboo district, Malm, will be more than ordinarily prosperous. Work on tho property of the American Placer Mining company will begin just as soon as the snows melt and the water commences to run. The great drawback of past seasons has been tho great scarcity of water, but owing to the heavy snows this year no dilliculiies will be experienced on that account. Tho vein from which this won-derful oro comes is several feet wide, the rich streak being from I to 7 inches la thickness. This streak has been traced 100 feet, and oro of the kind sent in can be picked out of it at. any point selected at random, Tho location of this new strike is on tho lino of the Deep Creek road and near the boundary between I'tah and Nevada. It is a new dis-trict. Mr. Karrick states that the prospec-tors which ho and others have along the line of the new road are making strikes all the time. There is no doubt ii: his mind that it is the richest mineral country in the west. Mtllllil- - This was a very blue day for busi-ness which even tho bright sunshine could not dispel. 'The mantle of gl 10m which covered everything was most de-pressing to an active soul. Everybody was in the very best of humor, but they wero more incliuod to discuss the re-turns from Sam Gilsnn's ore than to "plav ball."

The new machinery is expected to arrive on May 1, and will all be in order to commence work by July. It will be something like tho Daly plant, but considerable larger. Superinten-dent Dave Keith has recently invented a water blast by which tho mine is saved three tons of coal a day. The arrangement consists of a pipe which catches the fall of water from the up-raise and utilizes it as a power to pro- - duce a current of air which is conduc-ted into the various workings of the mine. The raise has now reached a point on a level with the drill hole and a drift is being run which will soon make tho connection, so that it can ouly be a question ol a short lime until the upper workings of the property are drained. At the present time all work is seriously retarded by the enormous llow of water in all the workings, but the production is not likely to fall below that now made on account of it An Important Jti'It,Un. Heretofore it has beeu the practice and rule in performing the requisite hundred dollars worth of assessment work on mining claims embraced in a group of two or more, to do the first year's labor on each claim separately, before a patent could legally be applied for. By a late ruling rendered by Sec-retary Noble of the interior depart ment, in the case, of Nichols et al vs. Baker, a full text of which has been received by the local land ollice it is now held that all the work for the benefit of the entire group can bo done on any one of the claims.

C Couklin informs the reporter that the ore market is now easy and that contracts are being made daily for the productions of Utah mines. Nick Treweek is of the firm opinion that Salt Lake will have a mining ex-change building that will eclipse any-thing of the same kind in the west. M. H. Powers is a recent arrival from Tintie. He pronounces the camp as i being in an unusually prosperous con- - ; dition, but very quiet and orderlv con-sidering tho events of tha past few days.

The funeral of the late W. M. Coryell, who died of blood poisoning last Sun-day was held at St. Mark's yesterday. Mr. Coryell was engaged 111 painting at a house on Brigham street about three weeks since, and stepped on a nail in a block. He did not suppose at the time that the wound was serious enough to need the attention of a phy-sician, and he continued to doctor it himself. Within a few days Mr. Coryell found he was unable to move around much, and he was takeu to the Holy Cross hospital. Knowing that he could not recover from the effects of the poisoning, his mother at Virginia City, Nev., was wired, she arriving in time to spend the last hours at tho bedside of her dying son.

Sho is to sail from England in February, and will go first to Zanzibar, thence to Mombasa, and then will begin her journey inland. Mrs, Sheldon says: Tho expedition will bo entirely my own, the honors, if any, shall not le divided, and the criticisms and of course there will be inuuy must be aimed at 1110 alone.

J Secret Service Agent Harris returned to this city Into Thursday evening aftef an absence of about two weoks in Wash-ington and Oregon, where he had been sent by tho treasury department to look after a gang of counterfeiters who were flooding that part of the country with bad paper money.

From Tnrler the Mistletoe. Christmas romping has never gone out of vogue, and as it is, ufter all, an in-nocent romp, who would want it to? No southern girl would do like tho elderly English maiden who woro a wreath of mistletoo on her head, thus inviting a continued series of kissings, but each one is considerate enough to never get under the iniblletoo unless her very own sweetheart is near her. The mistletoe ia removed after Christmas night, for it represents a frolic only kept np while everybody is present. Tho great delight of tho establishment ia always to get grandpapa or grand-mamma under the mistletoe bongh, and then to lot a procession be formed, each member of which imprints a kiss on the dear faces. These kisses aro good, sweet, pure ones, and there is no girl who should be advised against being in the room where tha mistletoe is. It is truo that Tom may seize a ki.ss if yon happen for a minute to be under tho waxy look-ing berries; it is true that you may in-cite your mother to kiss Tom as he stands there inviting tribute from yon, but this is all honest play to which none but prudes could object. Get tho dear mother to take her place then, and see how the boys, young and old, will strivo to kiss tho lips that say the kindly words, or to make a rosy blush cotno on her fare as the tender tribute is placed on her forehead by somo friend of her girlhood, somebody who reverences the beautiful lips she has had. As long as tho mistletoe repre-sents sweet, pure fun, hang it np, nnd do not let tho waxen berries Ik) for-gotten. Ruth Ashmoro in Ladies' Home Journal. The ( lin k Stopped When lie Died. Tho sentimental and superstitious who are given to tracing the laws of coin-cidences will find an interesting subject for their attention in the recent death of a jeweler iu Bucyrus, O. For many years it has been tho office of a skillful German watchmaker, named Frank Kehrer, to attend to tho town clock, which is in tho steeple of the court house. During tho p:ist few months tha health of Mr. Kehrer has been poor, mid tho clock, deprived of his careful atten-tion, has been keeping indifferent time. Monday morning the timepiece struck 5, and a few moments later it stopped. Early risers who heard the chime nf firm that there was something indescril). ably weird and peculiar about it. Late! risers, noticing the clock hands pointing to 5:03, commented upon the subject and its aged guardi an. Later in tho day the news spread that Mr. Kduvr's condition bad suddenly become worst- - and that ha had died at 5:05 that morning. The hands of the old town (dock still point to tha identical time when the active mind and skilled hand of its muster were paralyzcti in death. Jewelers' Weekly.

Pou'ilo Onlrk Floprment on Foot. At tho village of Newberry, Lid., highly sensational and exciting elope-ment was witnessed a day or so ago. The fleeing lovers were from Plainville, Daview; county, and had eloped at dark, taking passage in a hack. The vehicle broke down, and they hired a farmer to take them to the railroad station, but when ho learned who they were and that they were elopers, he knew the girl's father, and refused to take them nny further, leaving them in the middle of tho highway iu the dead of night. They pursued their way to Newberry on foot, arriving about daylight, and bought tickets to Torre Haute. Their names were Dukes and Slat tin. While loung-ing about the depot waiting for tha train and amusing the sis'ctators by their loving conduct the "old man" rods rapidly np, nnd seeing them dart around the depot juni(ed from his horse and asked a man standing near by to hold it until ho killed a man. By this timo the fleeing lovers were going over tho bridge across the river, the young man considerably in the lead, culling back, "Come on, Miuy," while tho enraged father brought up tho rear, revolver iu hand; but Mary shaded her lover from the old man's pop by keeping between them. Noticing that her father was gaining on her she took otf her shoes, and thus inspired with new energy she fairly flew, soon overtaking her lover and distancing tho old man, who soon gave up the chase, amid the laughter and jeers of the crowd who had wit-nessed the ridiculous proceedings. The old man then offered $-- reward for the arrest of the pair, but no one cared to undertake the job, and tho old man re-turned home. St. Louis Republic. I Hinted in Front or the Loroiuolivo. Mrs. II. M. Bennett, of this city, had a narrow escape from death several d.iya ago at Monmouth Junction, N. J. Mr. and Mrs. Bennett have a country seat there, and they came to tho depot to take a train for Pittsburg. The Penn-sylvania road has four tracks at this point, and trains aro passing most of the time, making it exceedingly dangeroua for pedestrians. What is known as thu Congregational express, which does n stop, was due, and Mr. Bennett saw it approaching, but there was plenty of time to cross over. He started across the tracks accompa-nied by Mrs. Bennett, when a track walker called her attention to the ex-press, and waved his hand in tho direc-tion of tho trail It frightened Mrs. Bennett, and sho fell on tho track in a dead faint in front of tho train. There was no time to lose, and Mr. Bennett andlhe railroad men, realizing her posi-tion, rushed to her side and pulled her off but a few seconds before the express passed by. Mrs. Bennett is a largo wom-an, and her dress caught on a spike and was torn, but she didn't realize what an escape she had until she was restored to consciousness. Pittsburg Dibpateh. Wonderland.

A striking illustration of tho quantity of bogus coins now in circulation in thit city wfis given in a downtown store re-cently. A customer who had made a small purchase tendered a fifty cenl piece in payment. Tho clerk pushed if back across the counter and shook bif head. "That half dollar's a little toe new," he remarked. "What do you mean?" demanded the customer. "I'D show you," replied the clerk, picking Uj the coin and then letting it fall stiarplj on the connter. The shock caused the counterfeit to fly into fragments. It waj a glittering sham composed of glass, with a thin veneer of metal. There seems to bo good reason for thinking that a gang of counterfeiters and tbeii accomplices are working Chicago. An astonishing quantity of bad coins is now out among citizens, and apparently its volume is increasing rapidly. Chicago News. !Hlna Cary'a Triumph.

In reference to the order of the secre-tary of tho navy that hereafter, until July 4, 1891, tho Union Jack shall con-tain forty-thro- e stars, The New York Times says: Tho Union Jack is a flag peculiar to vessels only. It is a square blue piece of bunting, studded with while stars, representing tho different states cf the Union. On board a man-of-w-it is flown from a jackstatl mount-ed close to the cap of the bowsprit. ncro a vessel lias no bowsprit it is either mounted in theextremo forward part of the bow or run up on a hoist passing over a small block secured to the forest ay. It is not usual for men-of-w-to display their Jacks except when lying at anchor and all is snug. In home waters tho Jack is rarely seen other than on Sundays or during gen-eral inspections and on state occasions. While iu foreign ports the Jack is deemed as essential as tho national ensign and is always to be seen. To tho man-of-war-man the Jack appeals perhaps more strongly than tho national ensign. Tha blue jacket recognize that tho defence and honor of tho Union Jack are con-fided to the navy. Ho is consequently extremely jealous of this blue piece of bunting, which, to tiie navy, corre-sponds to the regimental flags of a bat-talion. Willed SIO.OOO to a I'olilo Km tender.

It is amusing to watch how brokers and bankers who put their bouds and stocks in their boxes in the vaults of the New York Stock Exchange overnight close them. Soine pnll away at tho han-dle of too lock as though they would pull it off in their anxiety to make 6ure that tho box is locked, which action is largely tho result of nervousness; others take it very easy, give the handle one or two turns and go off satisfied. One gen-tleman said to another down in the vaults tho other day: "A queer thing happened some five years ago. I noticed that the door of a certain box was on the crack and its key sticking in it. I notified Mr. Colo, who is in charge thrre, and who at once closed it "I then went to tho gontleman who had forgotten to lock up. 'Oh, it's all right,' ho said; 'I intended to go back.' But I noticed that ho was all in a trein- - ble, and that he went over to tha vaults iu a jiffy, Ho staid there an hour counting over his securities. There must havo been a million dollars' worth in that box, for I noticed loans of one and two hundred thousand dollars apiece, j Ho didn't even take tho trouble to thank j mo when I went over and notified him of his Ciirelusstfss.'

New Or-leans Picayune. What Free Coinage Is. While several gentlemen wero talking at tho Markham ono of them asked con-cerning tho meaning of tho term "free coinage" as it is so often heard nowa- - days. An experienced mining man ex- - plained as follows: "Free coinage means that the government should coip silver lis it coins gold, freo of charge. There are now four coinage mints in the Uni-ted States. They are located at San Fran-cisco, New Orleans, Carsou City and Philadelphia. Any man who will take gold to any of those mints may receive the gold in the shapo of coin. Silver is not recognized on the sumo basis, mid this is what the silver men demand. "There nre two facts I can learn when 1 look at a twenty dollar gold piece," continued the gentleman, "and thoso are the mint where the coin was turned out and the initials of tho man who made the die. If you don't know where to look for tho marks it ia a hopeless task, but tho person who penetrates the secret must havo n uew coin and a good pair of eyes." Denver News.
