Marsh Long has a dandy prospect in a newly located claim about 300 feet south of the Ben C. Lowell at Magnolia, Boulder country, which he has named the Apex. In doing his original location work he uncovered a four-foot vein of quartz through wht".h runs a number of streaks of very high grade ore. Sinking of the main shaft of the Klkton, Cripple Creek, has been r*> Burned. It is expected that u lift of 100 feet can be sunk before water will be reached. This will give about 170 feet of stoping ground on the main vein, as the new level is down *J6O feet. The vein has been drifted upon for 1,000 feet on the tenth level. The largest body of ore found in years on the Gold Dirt property, Georgetown, is exposed on the fifth level.

The Gold Bullion Mining Compa.iv of Boulder has inaugurated the work which is to remodel the old Prussian mill, making it a modern up-to-date concentrating plant specially equipped for treating the ore from the Prussian and Slide mines. The force of men now employed at the mill will be in creased as soon as they can work at an advantage, and In about 60 days it is expected that the plant will be in operation, treating about 76 tons dally.

The val ues in the Ella W., under lease to Johnson & Co., are found in a granite formation. The vein is about two feet wide. There are three producing prop erties in this vicinity and Tenderfoot hill is coming to the front. as a pro ducing section. The Princess mill at Lakewood. Boulder county, which has been closed down for the past year on account of the poor demand for tungsten, is to go into commission us soon as the snow is off and settled weather sets in. The shaft on the Mint vein, George town, is being sunk at the rate of two feet a day and a fine body of ore fol lowed.

SANG FOR 62 YEARS IN CHOIR Pennsylvania Boloist Baid to Hold Record for Continuous Service at One Chureh. Shippensburg, Pa. —What is prob ably the world’s record as a public singer la held by Mrs. George V. Johnston, who for more than 62 years has been soloist in the Presbyterian church here. As Abigail Rankin she entered th» Presbyterian choir in 1849, when she was twelve years old. The choir was directed by George Reynolds, and Miss Rankin was asked to play the cabi net organ, the church’s sole musical Instrument. Accompanying the choir and herself as soloist, she played the organ for several years. She has traveled a distance of more than 40,000 miles in merely going to and from her choir rehearsals and church services, while the actual time she has spent in a choir seat would amount to the equivalent of one year and a half, or in the neighborhood of 14,000 hours, and this does not take into account her singing at Sunday school, prayer meeting or missionary society meetings. Mrs. Johnston’s voice is as sweet and cler.r today as it was three score years ago. She is a member of the local woman’s musical club, where just lately she has sung several solos written by modern French writers. When asked what particular hymn or especial church musical number she liked best, Mrs. Johnston said, “Oh, 1 couldn’t tell you! I love them all." The present director of the choir in which Mrs. Johnston sings is Miss Agnes Mathews, a pupil of the elder Kullak and at one time accepted as a pupil by Frans Liszt. IS WORSE THAN ST.

DESTITUTION AMONG FARMERS COLORADO HOMEBTEADERB, MEN WOMEN AND CHILDREN LITERALLY STARVING. MUST HAVE HELP •TATE BOARD OF CHILD AND AMI MAL PROTECTION ABKB FOR CONTRIBUTIONS. Denver. —The situation in some of the districts of the eastern part of the state, where the snowfall has been, very heavy and last year’s crop was not sufficient to furnish feed for the stock through the winter is recognised by the State Board of Child and Ani mal Protection as one requiring quick and adequate relief or the suffering among the people and their stock will be very great. The board has Issued an appeal for fundß to be used In the way of loans to tide these settlers over for a few months and enable them to buy food for themselves and sustain their stock In a proper condi tion for the spring work of cultiva tion. The appeal is as follows: To ths Citizens of Colorado: ▲ condition of extreme destitution and famine exists among the recent settlers in three or four counties in this state. Owing to the lack of rain fall during the past two years, to the newness and unbroken condition of their claims and to the extraordinary severity of the winter, the worst on the plains in thirty years, these peo ple and their children, with their horses and cows, are in many cases literally starving. Their gaunt horses cannot drag a plow from weakness. Their cows give no milk, and unless help is given them within the next few days both horses and cows will die. Moreover, although ths heavy snow fall makes a bountiful crop certain, they have no seed. These men, their wives and children h%ve endured great hardships to make homes; they must be helped, their children fed, their stock saved and their crop sowed. Common humanity demands that much. Thsy are good citizens, industrious and law-abiding. It will be incred ibly short-sighted and foolish for the people of this state to let them fall just now when their success Is at hand. They do not want charity, but only to be helped till they can repay with their summer’s crop. Accordingly, the State Bureau ot Child and Animal Protection asks subscriptions for them, to be sent to its office and guarantees to see that without any cost the fund so raised will be used to provide food, feed and seed under the investigation and su pervision of its officers, and that notes without interest for all that is advanced will be obtained payable when their crops are sold. We earnestly ask that all who de sire to aid these most deserving fam ilies send their subscriptions to this bureau at once. No time can be lost. Plowing should begin as soon as the starved horses can be fed and gain a little strength. No matter how small the amount it can be used. A few dollars will feed a family for a week; $1 will feed a cow and 92 a horse for a week; 9? will buy seed wheat for an acre. The names of all subscribers will be furnished to the daily press from day to day, together with the use made of their subscriptions. (Signed) a A. COLBURN, President.
