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.

GRAND LARCENY OF TRAFFIC
Waat City Hall feople Thlak of
Beheme ta Hepave Seven
teeath street.
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

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

Later ths safety devlcs In ths ssoondary

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

LANDSLIDE DESTROYS HOUSE
More of the Union Pacific Track Embank
ment Gives Way.
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.

PAYS HIS FIRST OMAHA TAX
Resident Igjnorant of Law, Eacapea
Payment (or Eighteen
Years.
An Irate citizen w(th tan shoes and a
Panama- hat called at the city treasurer's
office yesterday to protest agalnBt his per
sonal taxes, which he said were too high.
"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.
