10 THE OMAHA DAILY" BEE: THURSDAY, JULY 10, 1002. VISIT TO THUNDER MOUNTAIN Omahan Tells of Thrilling Trip to Hew Gold Digging!. . FOLLOW THE COUNCIL-WARREN TRAIL Foav Werees Go katlne; Down Side of Moantaln Several Omaha. Po. pie l.oritf 4 In the New Commaaltlre." W. A. Kuhn, a loral druggist, has Just returned from Thunder mountain, Idaho, the new mecca of the gold seeker. He re ports two prosperous young; towns in the diggings (the sites of both being the prop erty of former Omaha men), the presence of gold in paying quantities, a gratifying absence of rowdyism and many thrilling ex periences on the route. "There were three of us in the party that left Council, Idaho, for the mjnes on the morning of June 4, the other two mem bers being veteran prospectors. We trav eled over the Council-Warren trail, which Is about 180 miles in length, and a most treacherous route; at thia time of the year It is passable only to the most sure-footed of horses. The earth Is rotten from melt ing snow and the narrow ledges of the trail are blocked at frequent intervals with the trunks of fallen trees or with bowlders that have slid down the mountain side. We eaw the carcasses of dozens of horses that liad been drowned in the creeks, the banks of which had probably caved with them. It was estimated that 125 head of horses bad been lost there during the last two or three months. "It Is tfie most magnificent country for scenery I ever saw. In my estimation it beats Yellowstone park in this respect, as the mountains and gorges are wilder and snore picturesque. At the Bevrer Mine. "In the Thunder mountain diggings there are four 'communities' of contiguous claims, known as the Dewey, Rainbow, Sunnystde nd FalrvleW groups. At the Dewey mine Which is at Thunder mountain proper, there Js a ten-etamp mill, and a 100-stamp mill has been ordered and is on the way. In all this district, for miles about, there are solid mountains of porphyry carrying gold from $4 to $5 to the ton, and the whole country Is mineralized with base gold ore that can not be handled until a railroad Is built to the district, or until there is a smelter on the ground. Porphyry, by the way, is some thing new to the prospectors. They have always maintained that porphyry was not a gold-bearing rock, but the operation at Thunder mountain prove the contrary. The prospectors have also run across large quantities of sliver, jeaa ana copper. . "There are two towns in the diggings One, named Thunder, has about 250 people living in tents. It was platted by C. S Foseelman, who wae formerly a traveling salesman for an Omaha wholesale drug house. The other Is Roosevelt, which has about fifty people, and Is managed by M. A. Kurts, who was formerly proprietor of a woman's furnishing store in the Creigh- ton block, Omaha. Iloraea Go Skating. "On our way back we were accompanied by PostofAce Inspector Butler of Boise, Idaho, who had been Inspecting a route for the malls to reach Thunder mountain. We bad twelve horses, some of which were used to carry packs. Wishing to avoid ome of the wide circuits made by the 'Council-Warren trail, we chose a new and unexplored route, which promised to cut eft about thirty miles of the distance. It took us through a wild tract of country, The snow had not yet melted from the mountains and each night it freezes, pre senting In the morning a surface as hard and slippery as glass. One morning as we were winding a corkscrew down one of these peak four of our pack horse got upon a slippery patch of snow and all four of them skated down the mountain side 400 feet to the gully below, where they landed aafe and sound, as the gully was full of snow. Then one of the prospectors folded an overcoat into a cushion, aat on It, and slid down after them. "The nearest railroad point to Thunder mountain on the main line la Weisner, which Is a Junction on the Oregon Short Line, but a spur from this point to Coun ell, a distance of sixty miles, has been built, and this spur is under the manage ment of P. P. Shelby, who was formerly an Omaha railroad man. I met several former Omabans In the diggings." Sympathy tor France. In the recent disaster at Martinique the United States was among the first to extend sympathy to France and to aid the few for tunate survivors. It was this same generous American Idea of assisting sufferers from stomach and liver oomplalnta that led to the introduction of Hoatetter'a Stomach Bitters about fifty yeara ago. Today bun dreds of persons owe their good health to its use. It positively cures cramps, nausea heartburn, Indigestion, dyspepsia and ma laria. Try It.

Rumors of a gigantic scheme. Involving the grand larceny of Sixteenth street traffic, are current about the city hall. Upon Its surface the plan looks Innocent enough, being nothing more than a movement to ex tend the anphalt pavement of Seventeenth street from Davenport to Cuming street, but the wise ones say the scheme Is loaded. An attache of the city engineer's office, who claims to be on the Inside, has this to say 'It wouldn't take very much Just now to divert traffic from Sixteenth to Seventeenth strett, and to transform the latter In conse quence from a residence into a business thoroughfare. Sines the heavy rains Six teenth street Is almost Impassable. In every one of those 891 holes In the asphalt pavement the water haa formed whirlpools that have dug out and carried away the loose dirt, until some of tbem are two or tree feet deep. In other places the water has seeped under the asphalt cruet, washed away the binder and gravel base and li!t th wearing surface without support, so that a heavy laden wagon crushes through it. Conditions there are growing appreciably worse every day. Naturally teamsters want to avoid a street honeycombed with sink holes such as these, and if they can do so by simply going a block farther west they will do it. "Seventeenth street Is now paved with asphalt from Farnam to Davenport street, but from there on to Cuming there Is noth ing but the remains of an old cedar block pavement, which Is much worse than no pavement at all. I look to see this repaved with asphalt before fall. If by thia time the owners of property abutting on North Sixteenth street haven't done something to materially Improve their pavement we may expect to see the business of that thorough fare falling off. 'North Sixteenth street was originally paved with asphalt In 1883 and ten years ago this pavement began to give out. Sines that time the city has been repairing it every year. Last year it -spent $5,000 on this work and the pavement Is in worse condition now than when the repairs were begun. No amount of repairing can put the street In condition for more than a few months at best. What ia needed Is a new pavement. Property on that street pays high rentals and there Is no excuse for the pavement being In such deplorable condition. It will be a sorry spectacle for President Roosevelt and party to witness when they come this fall." CROPS IN GOOD CONDITION RaUroad Reports Are Favorable Despite Heavy Rains and Lott Temperature, The reports of crops along the Union Pacific, Elkhorn and Burlington continue encouraging, despite the heavy rains and unfavorable temperature. The two former roads make general returns of their varl ous divisions, which, with few exceptions, show favorable conditions, and the Bur lington presents a detailed report. On the northern division of the Burling ton crops are made. It ia now merely a question of gottlng them harvested. No serious damage Is reported to either win ter or spring wheat yet from the continued rains and cool weather, but feara are en tertalned that If the present weather lasts much longer bad losses may be felt. Oata on thia division are turning out a good yield. Corn needs cultivation, but no general damage Is reported to It. Potatoes are said to be In excellent condition. On the southern division wheat Is dam aged by the continued rains to some ex tent, but an abundant yield Is promised. The stand is exceptionally heavy and the development good, and with a little favora ble weather for harvesting an unusual crop would be reaped. Full crops of oats, If the weather Is no more serious . than It haa been, are In sight. Corn generally Is good, but needs mors cultivation than baa been possible with so much moisture. Potatoes are re ported In fine condition. Wheat on the western division Is heavy. but the winter sowing Is very wet and needa aoms bright days to put tt In shape for cutting. Oata ars good, as also Is corn, except that weeds ars too plentiful Grass and alfalfa ars in as as good condi tion as could bs desired. . . - On ths Wyoming division wheat la being harvested and Is turning out well, Corn Is In good shape and pasturage excellent. ELECTRICITY JGNITES GAS Otherwise Janitor at Ileis Wholesale Hoase Might Have Been Asphyxiated. ' When the Janitor In the office of P. E Iler'a wholesale liquor house, 1112 Harney street, opened ths place tor business yes terday he discovered a' ooJumn of fire nearly a yard In height shooting up from a hols In the arm ot a gaa Jet. Over ths arm lay a drop-wire for an Incandescent lamp and at ths point, of contact with the metal the insulation of ; ths wire - was burned away. It Is supposed . by City Electrician Bchurlg, who Investigated the matter, that a high potential wire must faava crossed the secondary wlr which fed the lamp, turning loose upon the latter .1,000 volta of electricity Instead of the 800 It was sup posed to carry; that an aro was formed between the wire and ths gal pipe, burn lng a hole through ths metal. Then the same aro which burned - ths hole In the pips Ignited ths gas when It escaped Later ths safety devlcs In ths ssoondary system ruptured end the wire "died." But for the tact that the eacaplng gas waa Ignited, ths Janitor, might have been asphyxiated, as he sleeps In a small room leading oft from the offloe, ths door be tween being left open. STOPS A PRAIRIE SCHOONER Police Sergeant Doesn't Like ths Way Motive Power Waa Beta . Handled. Charles Bray and Mrs. Charles Bray were arrested by Serges nt Hudson yesterday for abusing a team of mules which they were driving, hitched to a 1 "prairie schooner." The two were taking turn abdht whipping ths mules as ths latter ploded along Eleventh street at a ten-hour-a-mlle clip. The beating appeared to make no dlf terence to the mules, though it did to the sergeant. After being locked up Bray was also charged with being drunk. Mrs. Bray was released and with the team went her way rejoicing, while her husband will await a session with ths police Judge.

OLD WOMAN IS SERIOUSLY INJURED Entire Trackage-Way from Bridge to t'nloa Station Preeeats laaeenrs Appearance Streams Plow from Emhnnkment. The residence of Mrs. Johanna Collins, at 712 Marcy street, wss swept from Its foundation and the rear part demolished at 9:40 a. m. yesterday by a miniature land slide of the Union Pacific track embank ment, which Is gradually giving way to the heavy rains. Mrs. Collins, who Is over 60 years of age, was in her kitchen when the mass of earth crushed upon her little cottage, and received Injuries to her back and head, the seriousness of which has not been fully determined. She was hurled from the kitchen into the adjoin ing room by the force of the collision. The collapse of this embankment, which began with the displacement of 14.000 cubic feet of filling Monday morning, when three tracks were destroyed at the western en trance of the bridge, is now threatened all along from the depot entrance to the bridge. In half a dozen places great masses were swept out of place yesterday morning, but the worst of these is that which caused the damage to the Collins cottage and Injured J nirs. couins. Goes Down with Force. Tho house stood just at the foot of the high embankment, separated by a board fence six feet high. When the cave-In hap pened the bank went down with a plunge and struck the rear of the house, which was forced out fifteen feet. The rear room, In which Mrs. Collins was at the time, was completely demolished, the cook stove and all other contents smashed and covered with mud and water, which even found Its way to the front rooms. The cottage was a four-room structure. One room waa en tirely detached from the main building and all the apartments were badly damaged, If not ruined. Mrs. Collins, with her son and three daughters, has occupied the house since last December. No progress has been made In filling In or repairing the depression caused by the collapse of the trackage-way Monday. One of the sets of rails has been temporarily placed so aa to run dirt cars down, but no filling has yet been taken In. Water Is flowing from the torn embankment In copi ous streams, not only In this place, which was the location of the old artesian well, but In other parts of the roadbed. Changes In Topoarraphy, The ground Is creviced all along and the entire trackage-way presents" an Insecure appearance. Where the embankment has slid down the ground 100 and 200 feet be yond It has bulged out and risen to a con siderable elevation, but at the foot of ths embankment there Is no perceptible eleva tion and the earth seems to have ppened up and devoured the shifting sand. No more tracks have been swept away or interfered with by the slides yesterday and the Union Pacific haa completed its little cut-off spur running Its trains Into the Union depot. However, It Js feared that the tracks to the south side 'of the roadbed will be endangered and the entrance from the bridge cut off entirely until a more aubstantlal roadbed can be built. The whole embankment seems to be so thoroughly saturated with water a to have become a sort of mushy mass and it Is be lieved there la no way of preserving the roadbed except by a system of piping, thus carrying the water Into the river. The statement has been made by some of the foremen at work on the bank that under neath the sand filling ia a stratum of soap- stone and that aa the artesian well has formed a subterranean stream there la Im minent danger of the entire mass of road bed being swept away. To Prevent Dlaaater. A theory has been advanced that In or der to prevent auch a disaster It will be necessary to drill down through this soap stone! and establish a secure foundation to hold the earthen superstructure. The continued rains naturally Interfere with the attempted repairs of the trackage and It will be eome time before tralna will be running over these tracka. AFRAID OF ITALIAN WOMAN French Olrla Have dalalpptnn Troa- ter Pnt Under Bonds to Keep Peace. ' A war ta brewing between ths French and Italians In ths neighborhood of Ninth and Dodge streets and ths French want the Italians put under peace bonds before the French are annihilated. To that end Adella Plnzalse and Louise Troivllle bad Oulslp plna Troster arrested and taken before Jus tice Foster, to be put under bonds to pre vent her from Killing them, as they allege she haa threatened to do. None of the parties can speak English, but from the gestures made by the French girls Justice Foster understood that the Italian bad been carrying a long, keen-bladed stllletto for many moons and recently she had Informed the French girls that In the very near future she intended to begin a war of extermina tion on them. Oulalpplna was released under $100 bond to keep the peace until Friday, when she will be given a hearing. BEFORE THEREJIRINQ BOARD Captain John Srybnrg of tho Tweaty.

"I've lived In Omaha eighteen years," he exclaimed, "and have never paid a cent of taxes before." "Then IV b high time you paid," said Treasurer Hennings. "But these back taxes! How was I to pay them when I didn't receive any notice that they were due?" "The law says it's a citizen's business to call and find out about his taxes." "Well, I don't pretend to know anything about the law." "That doesn't excuse you. If you were to kill a man you wouldn't expect to es cape arrest because you didn't know there waa a law against murder, would you?" "Yes, I know there's a law against mur der. I know, too, that there's a law agalnBt a treasurer stealing the people's money." At this point the confab came to an ab rupt end and the treasurer walked away. "I didn't know," he said to a friend later, "whether be meant to Insinuate that I had stolen the people's money or not, and It I thought he had I should have landed on him. I thought It best to get away from him before the temptation became too atrong." The citizen paid both his current and delinquent taxes before he left the office. Known the World Over.
