It makes a very even and uniform grade. The Cornucopia mine, now partially owned by the Granite Mountain company, will receive $100,000 worth of develope mcnt work this summer. Their steam pumps arrived Tuesday, and were at once placcd in position for work. I Iiis mine will prove a very heavy yicldcr. Some locations have recently been made upon Sheep creek, or on some of the streams that flow into it. Some years ago a miner named Gray, leaving Neihart, attempted to shorten his route, but got lost, and came out by the way of Sheep creek. His horse stumbled going i - i, ; ; i and threw out a large boulder of float, which Gray broke anil had sampled. It ran so high that he got ready the next spring to return to find the lode, but on the eve of his de parture he was taken with pneumonia and died, and his friends were never aide to find the float. The recent locations are supposed to be in the neigborhood of Gray's discovery.

A fatal ««up took place at Barker on Sunday evening about 8 o'clock in the saloon of Thomas Geer. John Lee, a and miner, highly intoxicat ed, stubbed Sam Ridgeway, a gambler, over the right eye inflicting a terrible wound and exposing the brain. In an effort to secure the knife from the drunk en man Hugh McLean also received a cut across his right hand almost cutting it off. Lee had 1>cen wildly mad all evening, and had tried several times before to make fight with different ones. After the deed he escaped to his cabin and securing a rifle made Iiis escape. The weapon used was a shepherd's knife, and about 7 inches long. Mr. Ridgeway lingered in unconciousness till morning but died shortly after. Al Hockctt, Charlie Eldridge and Eddie Kane started at once toward Neihart over the trail, putting all the prospectors and local residents on their guard for the appre hension of the murderer. It is thought as all passes are guarded that he cannot escape. Later: Lee was captured on Tuesday at lîed Coulee, a branch to the Box Elder between Armington and Tiger Butte.

Now is the time for united action on the subject of public improvements. Streets should tie cleaned up some grad ing done, water should be kept, from washing ditches in the road, and more than all work should be commenced on the Wolf creek road. There is no reason why Barker should not be the center of trade for the Wolf creek and Yogo min ing districts and the entire Judith basin if the road is put through. Work on the May and Edna is pro gressing rapidly. The tunnel being run to tap the ore vein is now in 300 feet Water has interfered with the work some giving the workmen a shower bath in some places.
