The first place he struck was Koch- ford where 1)8 found mov-lo-'aluoff evenly and quietly, the Standby 0 -stamp mill runuing inces-WDily day and night, and every port 0f the machinery working as smeothly watch. The plates were loo king magnificently, and the prospects of a vtA clean up encouraging. The mill is rim by a sixteen inch turbine wheel, it affords ample power to run the ore crushers, self feeders and all, and not more than one third of the water curried by the ditch is required, the balance running to waste.

Fwm there he went to Custer City, found t' people greatly encour-aod over the reported sale of the Grand Junction, Atlantic and Hart-lord mines to eastern capitalists, who come to the front, build mills and develop the country. He put up with Cpt. Hazcrodt, who keeps the boss hotel of the Southern Hills. Several pod buildings are being erected, and the business street of that city is now Custer instead of Crook, as formerly. He next visited Ilill City, which he found very dull, the men all off at work in other camps from the fact that the water supply has entirely failed there.

The next place visited was the big dun on Spring creek, and at this C5 ILb TP 3HI KT S- Goods, Boots and Shoes, Hats and Caps, BLANKETS AND QUILTS And everything else umially.kept in A FIRST CLASS CLOTHING STORE At prices to surprise the oldest inhabitant.

We saw A. M. Stewart and W. B. Rogers this morning, panning out some rock which they informed us was from a new discovery in the vicinity of Golden Gate, and which was far ahead of anything we have seen in the Hills.

Every piece of rock showed tree gold, and if they have much of it they have indeed a bonanza. Thlfy say they got the rock from a new discovery withiu three feet of the surface, and that the pieces we aw were from holes thirty feet apart. If this proves a lead, the boys are fixed. LEAD.

7tf TolUe Editor of the Tir. Having no interest In the case of L. Couk other thnn that of common humanity, it was with some consider able pleasure that I read the fair com nients of the Times and Pioneer in hi behalf. Peculiar circumstances have enabled me to consider the apparent circumstantial facts connecting M. Couk with the murder of Mrs Callison and if it is possible to interest thi people in a reconsideration of the case by any fact or circumstance that has come under my observation I will feel contented as having done some.

thing in the cause of humanity. Mr, Couk has been convicted upon entirely circumstantial evidence, upon the meory that he had mane all the necessary arrangements to elope with Mrs. Houghton, and killed Mrs. Callison tor the purpose of burying a secret connected with the elopement. Now in supiwrt of this theory any reason able person would naturally conclude that a man would put himself in as good financial condition as possible to carry out his plans.

In this comma uication I desire to call attention to the fact that Couk had made no arrange ments whatever which would enable him to get Mrs. Houghton out of the country, but on the contrary when-ar rested he was not only without money out uau overdrawn his bunk account That immediately prior to the murder he had, as his bunk account will show paid out several thousand dollars, principally upon mining property then and now owned by him. It can be proven that no single step had been taken by him which would lead any one to suppose that he contemplated leaving the country, while the disposition of his means demonstrated that he had no intention of leaving at all It would make this communication too long to call attention to other cir cumstances favorable to Mr. Couk. It occurs to me that our people should in justice to themselves, now without any delay, take all the necessary steps save this man's life.

Hanging is a ter rible thing at best, and it lie afterwards discovered that we had hung an innocent man, no good citi zen of our county could ever content plate Couk's death without the horri ble feeling that he was a party to a ju dicial murder.

We were told that Anheuser Busch stand to day not only the largest bottlers in America, but probably in the world, as no bottling concern in England has used and filled an equal Lumber of bottles.

It is thirty feet to the bed rock, and about seventy- fire yards across the gulch at the point where the dam is being guilt.
