There In a great deal of excitement In Crook county , nays the Laramle Boomerang , regarding the building of two new railroads in that part of the state. Governor Larrabce anJ other , interested with him In the coal lands in the northwestern part of Wyoming on Hay creek recently Bold 1,120 acre * of coal land to Underwood & Young of New York , und since that transoctlbn a survey for the construction of n rallrond from this state Into South Dakota has been lot. It will bo twenty mites In length and will run from tin coal lands to Mlnncsela. According to the contract , the road Is to he graded and iron ready tor rolling -lock in ninety days. Thin action has started the Elkhorn people ct work , and a day or two ago the general manager of Hut road , Mr. Burt , with Chief Eng nccr Berry , arrived In the north- nrcsttrn part of the state with a corps of nurvcyors and it is lindcrntood there that the Elkhorn Intends to penetrate thc-e new coal fields at once. The Elkhorn some time ago , It Is nald , had a number of tests made of the coal there by different parties , and all of them showed It to be Buch a superior article that they have only been waiting to build for the pur- pone of trying to get hold of the lands cheaply , but now that another company has started In they dare not wait longer. It means a big boom , now towns , etc. , in the northwestern part of the state. A very important question has been raised Jn this city , which deeply concerns the miners of Bald mountain and many land ownirs along the line of the Union Pacific railroad. Bald mountain , where all the Important mineral dlscoverlen have been made recently In this vicinity , Is shown on the railroad company's maps as being railroad lands , and the question now arises BS to whether the company can claim them. Touching this point Is the decision of Judge Hallett to the pffcct that the twenty- mite right of way of the company must be tnade from the railroad on parallels from the road and not obliquely across sections. There is also the decision known as the Montana decision of the United States supreme court which exemptH mineral lands from the right of way. However , at the present time the lands , are supposed to be claimed by the Union Pacific company. If these decisions ( should hold good In this case there would have to be new survnys made of the company lands , and the result would bo that consider- able land now supposed to be railroad land , Rome of which has been sold to companies and resold to settlers , would be thrown back into the government domain. WILL BOOM PHOENIX. The grand water storage proposition on the Rte Verde has at last a-sumed tangible shape. A $2,000,000 contract has been let at Indianapolis , Ind. , to construct storage and division dums and 100 miles of canal by January 1 , 189C. The storage dam site is located between sixty and seventy miles northwest of Phoe nix. This dam will raise \\atJr 150 feet , nays the San Francisco Call. The base will b 260 feet and the breadth across the stream tvlll be SCO feet. The material used will be rock , laid by hand , with the upper face ce mented with asphalt sufficient to be Impervi ous to the wear and tear of floods. This etructure Is Intended to Impound flood waters. Below it some fifteen or twenty miles on the same river a dam is to be built to divert the water Into the canal , which will follow d3wn the Verde some thirty miles , and crosses the McDowell divide a quarter of a mile west of the military road ; thence north westerly across the Paradise valley , half a mile north of the Union inlno ; thence westerly through Deer vailey to the Ague Frio , which is crossed at the Caldcrwood Buttes , sixty miles from the head , and running westerly and southwesterly along the east flank of the White Tank mountains to the southeast cor ner of that range. The country lying between those moun tains and the Agua Frio. or Excelsior Val ley , trill be covered by the canal Its capac ity will be 57,000 miner's Inches. A miner's inch , as calculated , is n flow of one and a half cubic feet per minute. By April and October , 189C , water will be stored to cover and reclaim 220.000 acres of desert land. It Is intended to enlarge the storage capacity on completion of this contract to cover an area of 400,000 acres. The Impounded water will be used only dur ing the dry season. The ranges adjacent to this enterprise are known to be rich In the precious min erals , and almost the entire length of the canal well known mining camps , some es tablished years ago and of great merit , exist. The business men of Phoenix are greatly plated over the prospect. DEEK CREEK MINES. 1 One of the Wells brothers , who discovered the rich gold quartz mine at the head , of Doer Creek a short time ago , says the .Boise Btatesman , was in town during the past week nnd hrlnga the information that they are now down eighteen feet , and that the vein Is thret > feet wide of ore that will mill about ? 50 per ton. Five hundred feet from where the discovery was made they have opened up the ledge and discovered good ore. They will push development work ng rapidly as possi ble. . In the course of a few weeks they will have a crushing out , when they expect to realizehandsomely. . Near this mine Is another that is under course of development , It is narrow , but \ very rich , although It widens with depth. The lodge was also discovered by the Wells brothers , Mho nave sold It to the present owner for a revolver. The Indications now are that It will turn out to bo a rich and ex- a ton&ive gold mine. Several other men are now prospecting In that section , und we ex pect that many more gold ledges will be dis covered before fall. ( BEET SUGAR INDUSTRY. In an extended communication to a New orLi IVork paper on the national value of the Live beet sugar Industry , Oerrltt Smith Glen ve reaches the si following conclusions : first That we have the market for sugar wl ci nt homeat the present time which will con- Buma the product of po at least 1,200,000 acres hi of land ; that the per capita consumption of In ougar here is rapidly increasing , which , Inas with our great increase in population , tii creates and Insures a constantly Increasing demand. Our Imports In 1891 exceeded our ram Imports in 1SS9 by more than DOO.OOO tons. br m Second The production of beet sugar Is tb Increasing more rapidly than that of cane tbw Third That the production w of sugar beeta at lore at a profit has been clearly demon- 1st Btrated and therefore has ceased to bean vi experiment. IU Fourth That the culture of the sugar be beet , when understood , Is simple and does sa not require skilled labor. sapc pc Fifth That beeta can bo sent direct from ra the harvest field to the manufactory without in further preparation or storage. 111 ' Sixth That the culture of the sugar beet 'does not require any considerable Investment Of capital by the grower. Seventh That the Implements required for the production of sugar beets are simple and Inexpensive as compared to those required for the production of wheat. Eighth That the soil upon which beets A hive been successfully grown Is left in prime to condition for other crops. Ninth That we have a very large area of the comparatively low-priced lands , upon which he ugar biteti can be grown successfully. Tenth That the profit to the grower la greater than the average of other crops. Eleventh That four months after the crop la planted It can be harvested aud at once converted Into money , Twelfth That with patk-nt and persistent application any person of ordinary Intelligence at cat successfully produce the sugar beeU upon lands -within the belt described. end KINO OF GRASSES. Each succeeding year demonstrates the treat value of alfalfa to the stockmen of this utato , sayi the Oroville ( Cal. ) Register. One rear the Hiring ralnt fall just at the right and feed U luxurUnt aud hay abua- dint , but the Very next -ea dn the north wind drlet up the surface of the gronnd , the rain * fall It light , and In consequence pasture Is icant and the hay crop light. Formerly there uieil to be great lo - of sheep and cattle daring a very dry rear , but now the stockmen retort to the green and luxuriant alfnlfa i field- , and t'telr animal * are kept alive , Although they ptf a round price tor pa-lure. : Along the coatt and In the Sacramento valley ! enough rain ha- always fallen to In- itJr feed and fair crops , but In the San Jnaquln valley anfl in parts of nouthern Cali fornia there was during some year * a tre mendous IDM oflock. . AIMlfa.growIng Is becoming ' of mare Importance each season nd this year will cause a demand for every pound ( of hay and every aero of alfalfa papture ' In the state. The great Irrigation -y-tem * have multi plied and Increased , and each year sees more acres of land devoted to klfalfa. This Is wel named the king of grasses , for with abun dant water It will yield from evi-n to fifteen tons of hay per acre , beside giving three months of pasture. It Improves and benefits the land , and lasts for years when properly cared fir. U enables the firmer and stock- mitn to be Independent of spring rains , me hmures him it good crop , no matter what the season mar be. We predict Unit thli Benson will cause many stock owners to abandon their cxtcn- slvo natural ranges and to confine their attention to fewer acres. They will select land that can be Irrigated , land that In suit able for alfalfa , and will In the future de pend more upon this grans , which Is richer und mnre nutritious than the wild gnsses and which can bo made to produce enormous cropi if properly Irrigated. IMPORTANT MEXICAN RAILWAY. A chapter on Mexican railway- compiled from Information derived from various sources forms an Interesting feature of the report of the statistician of the Department of .Agriculture for June. The number of miles of railway conctructcd In Mexico Is put down at 7,297. Copcernlng the railway across the Isth mus of Tebauntrpec , the statltlclan's re port nays thnt the concession for Its con struction Is now held by Edward Me- Murdo of London. The peculiarity of thli concession Is that Instead of passing Into the hands of the government at the ex piration of nlncty-'nlne years from a certain fixed date , like other railway concessions In Mexico , It becomes the property of the gov ernment as soon as completed. The line will be completed in a few months. It la destined to connect the Atlantic and Pacific oceans by crossing the Isthmus of Tchuan- tepec from Coatzacoalcos , on the Gulf of Mexico , to the port of Cruz , on the Pacific coast. Some twenty miles In the center of the Isthmus still remain to be constructed. When the important works at the port of CoatzncoalcoK , on the gulf , arc finished , which are now under way , at an estimated cost of $4,300,00. ) . with a view to accommodate marl- time commerce , and the completion of a building of n long Iron pier at Sallna Cruz , on the Pacific coast. It is expected that within five years neagoing vessels of a large class will be able to anchor In the port , and that the maritime trade of the United States and Mexico , now carried on by way of Pan ama , will be saved a distance of more than 2,400 miles , and the same advantage will be , extended to commerce between Europe and Pacific ports lying north of the isthmus. RICH STRIKE. The Silver City ( N. M. ) Enterprise states that Savage Bros. & Kllburn recently leased the ! Scotch Lass mine from Harry McAllister. Their , first samples astonished them by the Immense richness of the . : ; ore. Doubting that the ore would run with the samples indi cated , they shipped a trial lot of 1,000 pounds to the Pueblo Smelting and Refining company. On Wednesday they got their re turns from the ore , which netted $ l,3-i9.36 , or at the rate of nearly $1 per pound clear of charges. In addition to this they ground fifteen pounds of the richest rock In a hand mortar and got gold which sold for $88. This claim is located a half mile northwest from Hall's station on the Silver City & Northern railroad. . The mine has a shaft seventy-flve feet In depth ' and a drift thirty feet in length ; the ore body is from six inches to a foot In thick ness and continues as far as developed. This ia only one of the many rich gold strikes in this vicinity , every week from one to three now ones being discovered. WELL NAMED CAMP. Intense excitement exists In camp over a discovery of a rich float In El Dorado mountain - tain , one-half mile north of this camp , says an El Dorado special to the Denver News. While out hunting horses Oren Beach picked up a piece of quartz literally covered with free gold , which old miners pronounce worth $20,000 per ton. The mountain Is being rapIdly - Idly staked and a number of miners are pros pecting in search of the bonanza. Messrs. Rosenbaum and Canon have been Investigating mines in the Interest of Lt- fayctte ( Indiana ) capital. They will make a thorough test of ores from this camp with a view of determining the process best adapted to treatment , and if satisfactory will organize a mining and milling company. Good placer diggings have been discovered at the head 'of Tucker gulch , north of El Dorado , Flnley and Scruggs , getting as high as 10 cents to the pan , while the creek affords an abundance of water. FREMONT COUNTY GOLD. In calling attention to recent rich finds made In the Atlantic district , the Fremont Clipper says : "The Henry Burk find on the head of Strawberry is all the talk now. The find is on the hill above the Dutch Tom gulch. The ledge is only eighteen Inches wide , but It is very rich. It is a rotten slate and light quartz , showing nugget gold and slate- with long coarse gold. The rotten quartz washes out from $10 to $25 per pan. It is certainly a very rich find and one that is attracting much attention. It has beeu known that there was a lead in that hill , as the rich placer In Dutch Tom gulch could come from nowhere else. The mine will be developed as fast as the owner is able to do so , and it is generally conceded that it will prove to be a producer. " SCORPION'S STING. While hauling rock the other day Walter \Vlllls of Paradise was stung by a scorpion. The venomous Insect was under a rock that hi turned over , says the Logan ( Utah ) Na tion , and It immediately attacked him , fas tening Itself so firmly between the third i little fingers of one of his hands that it to a hard pull to detach it. It was fully three inches in length , and Its sting pene trated deeply. Mr. Willis was In the mouth ofhi Paradise canon at the time , and he hastened home at once , and after taking SI one drink of liquor was rapidly driven to Logan. When -he arrived here he was a thAi very sick man , as several hours had elapsed Ai sines : he was stung , and his blood was filled thSe with the poison. Dr. Ormsby made an Incision Se cision : in the hand and extracted all the th poison possible , at the same time giving oil him quantities of whisky and hypodermlcally In Injecting restoratives. It looked at one time reef If it was all in vain , as he became par ofbr tially paralyzed and cold , and his pulse fell br rapidly. His arm was swollen to an im mense size , and something similar to a rash broke out on it. The veins swelled until HI they looked as If they would burst. After a time he rallied and was taken home , but he : be was by no means out of danger then. His attendants were instructed how to admin ister the whisky with -which lie was pro lei vided. If he had taken a large quantity of leimi liquor before leaving home he would have mi been in much better condition. Old hunters CO say whisky Is a sure antidote , and that if a person stung by a scorpion or bitten by a an rattlesnake will get thoroughly drunk , stay on ing Intoxicated for a day , they will feel no pu effects. effects.DIFFERENCE DIFFERENCE OP OPINION. tit titPi Judge Kuowlos of the United States court , Pi who recently sent a bunch of Common- for wealers to the Mlssoula county jail for six months , cites the Burlington extension lot through Montana as advertising for men. the Lewlston correspondent , taking exception CO this reference , ssye he hopes the judge CORE knows more about law than ha does about Burlington extension.

People coming down from the vicinity of Birch creek inform us that creek is now swarming with trout , and that a great many are being caught from it , some weighing as much as four or flve pounds , says the Sal mon City Republic. Birch creek is one of the numerous streams of this state that dis appear from sight. It sinks into the earth and no one seems to know where Its mouth is. This creek never contained any flsh un til within the last four years. About the last of May , 1890 , M. Hewltson , now of this place ; Joe Littlefleld and Andrew Langley of Junction caught some seventy-flve or more trout in Ten Mile creek and Clear creek , above Junction , carried them in oil cans thirty miles to Birch creek and turned them loose. These have increased in numbers and size until the creak is now one of the best stocked trout streams In the state. PETRIFIED FIRS. Some interesting geological discoveries have been made by the miners In the 2.000- foot level of the No. 4 vein of the New castle mine , says the Seattle Post-Intelli gencer , which will assist In the explana tion of the formation of the land in that vicinity. In the regular formation of the sandstone roof in one of the gangways were found masses of petrified flr wood and bark , which showed the lines plainly marked of the different stages of growth. Superin tendent Corey has some fine specimens in his office , both of the wood and bark. A remarkable point about both specimens Is that on the inner side of the bark Is a deposit of a white crystalline substance , and running In the veins through the wood Is the same material. It is harder than steel , and cuts glass like a diamond , but seems to be nothing but crystallized pitch. Another bpeclmen is fir wood in a more advanced stage toward coal , with pieces of petrified rosin imbedded in It. BAD INDIANS IN ALASKA. Settlers along the Alaska coast north of Prince William sound have reported to the government authorities that there is immi nent danger of an Indian uprising. Near Slmkan harbor last month the Indians killed nr unknown white man while- coming down the coast ad mutilated the corpse horribly. Another murder Is reported in that vicinity , the particulars of which ore unknown. Settlers , In a letter to the governor , report the Incompetency s > t the government peace otncers , who , they aver , are afraid of the Indians and dare not enforce the law. A revenue cutter was dispatched to the scene the trouble , with orders to arrest and bring to justice the guilty Indians. THE DAKOTAS. The corner stone of a new court house at Hlllsboro , N. D. , was laid last week. Graduates of the Spearflsh Normal school have organized an alumni association. The Ward ball of science at Yankton col lege has been completed at a cost of $75,000. The Black Hills Chautauq.ua assembly meeting at Deadwood will open July & and continue to the 13th. Sturgls will on July 4 , In addition to the annual reunion of the soldiers and sailors that day , hold a hose race or two for a purse of $150 or $200. The South Dakota State Dental associa tion , which just closed Its annual session at Parker , has chosen Sioux Falls as the place their next meeting. The Speorflsh Bulletin says the crop out look In the northern hills is better than for past five or six ; years. That's about the condition of affairs down here , too , says the Rapid City Republican. A base ball nine composed entirely of cowboys has been organized at Belle Fourche. They wear high heeled boots , spurs , chaps and nix-shooter * . Umpires will have to secure some of the new bullet proof irmor. Dr. Cheney , an old established physician the Black Hills , was arrested at Hot Springs on the charge of felonious assault upon Sadie McCurdy , a girl of fifteen yean , rwo gamblers arrested on the same charge each under $250 bonds. It was discovered the other day thit the Ajax tunnel In Bald mountain 'had caved In. Investigation proved that It may hive oc- ourred three days before.
