| For good weather March has not
'shown a beltei hand than Febru
ary. Coming in like a lion it
'should go out like a lamb, accord
iug to tiie old saying. February
I brought us about 20 incites oi snow
j and some rain. The ground is wet
and t lie few warm days we have
: had have been sufficient to start
the grass in tho sandy localities.!
It is alreadv showing up green at I
a distance, and stock is found j
searching for it. This all goes to
show that spring is almost on us.
and that early grazing will be had. |
A young man by the name of Lou j
Gcrkin, came into town Saturday ;
night and put up at the Ward,
house. Sunday morning the Prow
ers county sheriff appeared and ar
rested him, claiming he was want
ed in Weld county for killing cat
tie. The authorities from Weld
county did not come for llie party
and the Prowers county officers
had to let him go. He is said to
resemble very much a picture sent
out, of the Weld county thief.
The Mines.
Sunday evening after a drive
from Springfield, of 35 miles south
west, over a smooth prairie road
and one mile over a rough stretch
we found ourselves in the Carriso
Mining Camp. The main camp
lies on the south bank of west Car
riso creek, one and one-half mile
from the forks or where it empties
into main Carriso. Three camping
outfits at present constitute tlie in
habitants of this one point. At
the forks of the creek and scatter
ed along down it and up t lie canons
are to be found several more fam
ilies of miners and prospectors.
In tramping over the country we
found hundreds of stakes showing
that many miles of territory is al
ready staked. The people who
imagine their fortunes are at hand
are many, judging from the loca
tion stakes. Work on assessment
is going rapidly on, and piles ol
blue and red stone can be seen in
all directions. We find the differ
ent prospectors and miners have
different views as to value of
stones and lay of leads, but they
all agree that there is a fine pros
pect for a rich mining camp.
Many say that the surface lmlica
tions are much better than Crip
pie Creek ever were. The gold
belt secms'to be distinct from the
copper belt, but the latter contains
gold. The gold leads are mostly a
mile or two west af the copper in
dications, but at the lower portion
of the district it branches, and one
of these branches crosses into the
copper.
We found on the ground at
workjthe Rouse, Cole & Rouse Co.
who are intending to develope the
Gold Pick, Mayflower and the In
dependence; the latter is a copper
proposition and a line prospect.
Alter finishing assessment work
on some other locations they will
put their capital and labor on the
three mines mentioned.
Jessup vfc Sax have probably
done more work in the district
than any other firm. This compa
ny intends to push developement
work on the Hydra and Logan,
both gold prospects. Mr. Jessup
of this firm is an intelligent pros
peclor who has spent the greater
part of ins life in that line of work
He has done much to get the camp
started.
The Kiowa County Co. is work
ing assessments on sor G claims,
and as soon as that work is done
they will turn their men and mon
ey on the Black Bear and Mineola
The last named is in the copper
belt, and one among the many
fine prospects there. They intend
to at once do a great amount of
work.
A Colorado Springs Co. lias lo
cated one ol the best prospects in
the district calling it tho Allen
Quartermain lead. They will
spend considerable cash on this
mine, and will push work at once.
The Cripple Creek and Las An
imas Co. which has some fine lo
cations, will spend most of their
money on the Cactus and 'render
foot. This company contains some
Cripple Creek miners who assert
that the prospect is better than
that famous camp was.
The Augusta Co. has already
spent considerable money on the
August mine and intend to keep
on work there as well as develope
their September lode. This com
pany with the Jessup and Sax Co. |
and the Mesa Mining Co. have a
small prospectors’ furnace on the
ground which will start to smelt
ing ore next Monday, and grind
out five tops of it per day. They 1
1 will make test runs on most of the
| prospects owned by the three com
i panics and if they prove satisfac
i lory will at. once put in larg o
(smelters, unless it be found Shat
! some other process is cheaper and
better. Altogether the prospect
is bright for the new camp. Too
much tin e ail (oo much
i money has been spent already lo
stop before fully testing tho leads
l to be found there.
Card Of Thanks.
I Hie members of the G. A. R.
I and W. It. C. desire to extend
: their thanks to each and every
j one of the Springfield Dramatic
Club lor their services rendered
on Washington’s Birthday.
By order of Corps.
Editor Herald: I see your re
port of sale of quilt, on the 22d,
1 which is not correct. You have
our sincere thanks lor publishing
the same. Comrade Wardell was
the auctioneer, and there was but
one bid of seven dollars on the
quilt, the balance was fora good
cause; one of the noblest cause? un
der God's sinning sun; a cause t hat
extended relief to fifty-three thou
sand souls last year. This organ
izatiou called W. IL C. extends
from Maine to the Rio Grande, and
from Florida to California. It
numbers about two million, all told
They have built homes for youth
and old they have succored
the blind, the maimed, the hull
and the lame. They know neithef
color, creed, nor nationality, but
eternal gratitude to that noble
band ot patriots. Let us see with
what cold indifference they were
treated on the 22d. That quilt that
deit hands and willing minds pro
duced, had to go begging for the
pitiful sum of seven dollars. For
shame! Comrade Wardell just
talked to hisown imagination just
as little menjdo, and he was no ex
ception to tiie rule. My criticism
applies only to the soldiers and
citizens, who were able and did
not show much ol the spirit ol
what 1 call true patriotism, Of
course Mr. Editor-1 have been, and
shall be called a crank. No won
der I am a crank after the scenes
of!he22d. I did look for some
thing better from among so many
people. Here are twenty names
emblazoned on this piece of nice
work that any true patriot might
feel proud of. Honored ladies ol
W. R. C. to you I will say, that if
it should ever happen that you do
get lip an enterprise of this kind
again, give me thirty days notice
and 1 will get bidders that don’t
cany their little souls in their vest
pockets and call it their God. II
that piece of nice work which any
man might feel great pride in, was
got up in any town south of Mason
and Dixon line, by what we call
southern women, it would have
brought not less than fifty dollars
and perhaps one hundred dollars.
I once saw a cane put up for sale
for southern soldiers, and it sold
for fifty dollars: (a moral.) Mr.
Editor I cannot find words in my
vocabulary oi the English lan
gunge to utter my contempt for
the stinginess manifested that day
by tlie patriots of Baca county.

A Churn that Churns in
One Minute.
I have been in the dairy business
all my life and have many times
churned for an hour before butter
would appear, so when I heard of a
churn that would churn in a minute
I concluded to try it. Every day
for a week 1 used it and not only
could 1 churn in a minute but I got
more butter than with the common
churn. This is very important in
formation to butter makers. The
churn works easily and will churn
an ordinary churning in less than
sixty seconds. I have sold two
dozen of these churns in the past
month. Every butter maker that
has seen me churn in less than a
minute has bought one. You can
obtain all besired information re
ganling the churn by addressing
J. F. Basov & Co., St. Louis, Mo.,
and they will give you prompt and
courteous attention. 2

Just What Miners Want.
All who are, or expect to be, in
terested in mines will be glad to
know that Henry N. Copp, the
Washington, (I). 0.) land lawyer,
has revised Cops Prospector’s Man
u<_ 1. Tiie minernlogieal part of the
work has been almost entirely re
written by a Colorado mining en
gineer, who has had years of ex
perienee as a prospector, assay* r
and superintendent ol mines and
United States surveyor.
The book is a popular treatise
on assaying and meneralogv. and
will be found useful to all who
wish to discover mines. The first
part of the work gives the United
States mining laws and regula
lions, how to locate and survey a
mining claim, various forms and
much valuable information. The
price is 50 cents at the principal
book stores, or of the author.

lar to the different land offices:
Vour attention is called to tiie
I provisions of an act of Congress,
approved Dec. 29 ’94, entitled "An
act to amend section .*) of an act to
withdraw certain public lands 1: oni
private entry, and lor other pur
poses, approved March 2d 1889.
Sec. 3 of the act of March 2d 1889
reads as lollows:
'That whenever it shall he made

ceiver of any public land ollice,
under such regulations as the Sec
retary of the Interior i.iav pre
scribe, that any settler upon the
public domain under existing law
is unable, by reason of a total or
partial destruction or failure of
crops, sickness, or other unavoid
able casualty, to secure a support
for himself, herself, or those de
pendent upon him or her upon the
lands settled upon, then such reg
ister and receiver may grrnt to
such settler a leave o! absence
from tlu* claim upon which he or
she has filed lor a period not ex
ceeding one year at any one time,
and such settlers o granted leave of
absence shall forfeit no rights by
reason of such absence: Provided,
Thai the time of sueli actual ah
sence shall not be deducted lrom
the actual residence required by
law.
And the provision added there
to by the amendatory act is as
follows:
That il any such settler has here
tofore forfeited his or her entry
for any of said reasons, such per
son shall bo permitted to make
entry of not to exceed a quarter
section on any public land subject
to entry under tin* homestead law
and to perfect title to the same
under the same conditions in ev
erv respect, as if he had not made
the former cutrv.
No party will be allowed to make

thorized to administer oaths, set
ting lorth in detail the facts on
which he relies to support his np
plication, anil which must be sul
(icient to satisfy the register and

former entry was in fact forfeited
hv reason of his inability, caused
by a total or partial destruction or
failure of crops, sickness, or oilier
.unavoidable casualty, to secure a

pendent upon him, upon the land
settled upon.

what period ol time.
3. In case of failure or injurv
to crop, what crops failed or were
injured or destroyed, to what ex
tent, anil the cause thereof.
■I. In case ol sickness, what
disease or injury, and to what ex
tent the claimant was thereby
prevented from continuing upon
the land, and if practicable a cer
tificate from a reliable physician
should be furnished.
5. In case of‘’other unavoida

The Real Secret of the unparalleled succcsa
of The Chicago Daily News may be
found in hvo distinguishing characteristics ,
which more than anything else have con
tributed to its remarkable growth.
First: —lt is a Daily Paper for Busy People.
The j>coplc of the busy West appreciate keen
ly the necessity of nn intelligent knowledge
of the world’s daily doings, but they are too
busy to waste valuable time in searching
through a cumbrous “ blanket-sheet ” news
paper for the real news of nit, literature
science, religion, politics, and the thousand
nnd-one things which make up modern civ
ilization. They want news—all the news—
but they don’t want it concealed in on over
powering tnassof the trivial and inconsequen
tial. It is because Tiie Chicago Daily
News is “ all wheat and no chaff tlir.t
its circulation is over “ a million a week."
SECOND : — lt is an Independent , Truth-telling
Newspaper. The people demand a fair, i:.i
partial, independent newspaper,which gives
ail the news, and gives it free from the taint
of partisan bias. With no mere political am
bition to gratify, no “ax to grind,” the im
partial, independent newspaper may truly bn
“guide, philosopher and friend ” to heuest
inenof every shade of political faith; end this
is why The Chicago Daily News has to
day a circulation of over “a million a week."
The Chicago Daily News now adds to
these two comprehensive elements of popu
larity, a third, in iu unparalleled reduction
of price to ONE CENT A DAY.
Il is always large enough t —never tea. large
The Chicago Daily News is for sale by
all newsdealers at One Cent per copy, ct
will be mailed, jx>stagc paid, for per
y • -r, or pp cents per month. '1 lie farir.c
'’iv.l mechanic can now afford, ns well ns tli
r.i reliant and professional man, to have l:i.-
mctrcpolitan daily.
