A Disastrous Fire.
Indianapolis, Dec. 3. Fire in the
heart of tho wholesale district today de
stroyed property valued at moro than
half a million l im northwest quarter of
the block bounded by Meriden, Mary
land, Georgia and Illinois streets was
laid in ruins, and seven or eight great
business establishments wcro burned
out.
Tho tiro began in the wholesale gro
cery storo of Schnell & Co. At SiliO tho
third floor of tho building fell in and the
heavy stock piled on it was carried to
tho first floor. Flames at once broke out,
and tho fire spread in all directions.
The employes got out without serious in
jury, though souio had narrow escapes.
Ilefore the department arrived the en
tire block ws doomed. Great clouds of
blsck stiioko were 'touring out of every
window, nnd by the time water was
I (trued on tho whole interior was ablaze.
There was much inflammable material
in iho stock, there was an insufficient
supply of water and the weather was
bitter cold'.
Second' and third alarms wero turned
in and in20 minutes after the Moor fell
all tho available men and apparatus in
the department were engaged in lighting
tho tire.' Ten streams of water that were
turned' on the burning building from the
front aud rear did not seem to have any
effect on the fire, which pas-scd to the
buildiug anjoiniog on tho south, occu
pied by Fairbanks, Morse, & Co. Tho
water joured on Fairbanks, Morse it
Co.'s building did not have any effect
aijain-t tho strong wind blowing from
the north, and soon after nino o'clock
the lat-t business house betweeu the tire
and the aUey, that was occupied by
Ward Bros , wholesale druggisls, look
fire.
At noon, when the lire had been placed
under control, though still fiercely burn
ing, tho burned territory extended from
No. 52 to 74.
The following firms were burm-d out:
Schnell fc Co , w liolesale grocers; Ward
Bros., druggists ; Fairbauks it Morse,
scales; Eckhouso Bros., liquors; Indiana
Coffee Company; Woodford it I'ohhnan,
liquors, aud the Hildebrand Hardware
Company. The buildings were ll brick
three and four stories in height.
Several firemen were carried down by
the falling walls, aud it is believed two,
who hare been taken to the hospital will
die.
The lire caused practically a total loss
on buildings and stocks. The owners
estimate their lo.-ses on stock as follows:
Hildebrand & Co., feO.lKX); tlnre wlU be
some salvage; Joseph it Mosts Hot
house, f 11,000; Woodford It Poblmau,
n'G.WO; Schnell .t Co , 125,l00; Kair-
banks Scale Company, $15,000; Ward j
Bros., $35,000; Indiana Coffee Company,
$00,000.
The estimated total value of the stock
destrovedis $32,0J0, winch, together
with the buildings, will reach $000,000.
There is about $300,000 insurance.

The Motion for a New Trial.
San Francisco, Dec. 3. Tho motion
for a new trial for Theodore Durraut pro
ccedccd to its close today. Both General
Dickinsou, for tho prisoner, and District
Attorney Barnea agreed to eubinit their
points and authorities without extended
argument.
Dickinson, inj his argument, held tho
court'and erred in not compelling Miss
Cunningham to revoal tho source of her
information regarding Mrs. Leake's tes
limonv. tbat the latter saw Durraut and
Blanche Lamont entering tho church.
Ho also held that every newspaper
should havo been cited for contempt for
publishing tho teetimouv of tho trial
when the witnesses bad been excluded
from the courtroom. Ho said tlio dis
trict attorney, in his aruutnent to tho
jury had prejudiced the jury against Dur
rant by his arraignment of (he prisoner,
Dickinson also held the court had orred
in allowing Juror Mutbau to go Into tho
box when ho had an opinion of any tort,
nnd the court erred in allowing the pros
ecution to peremptorily challenge Juror
Walter S Brown, because of accusations
against Brown in connection with
BrownV aciion uh a juror iu tho Howell

THE BOHEMIA.
Oregon's Treasure House
and Its
Opening.
From the Salem I'ott.
Bohemia !
Not the Bohemia of which W. D.
Howells writes in his "Coast of Bohe
mia," nor yet the native country of the
mongrel class known as Bohemians, who
are the mainstay of the iron and coal
barons of the East, but a rugged, rock-
clad and mountainous district, which
ill undoubtedly prove to le the future
store of wealth for the great state of
Oregon.
Geographically described, the Bohe
mia mining district lies in the Cascade
itngo of mountains, in the eastern part
Lane and Douglas counties, the
ounty line dividing the district almost
equally.
To reach the district the most conven
ient route at present is via Cottage
Grove, but before another year rolls by
there will undoubtedly be a more direct
route from Oakland. Over the Cottage
rove route the distance to the Cham
pion mine, theIeading mining property
of the district, is about 40 miles, of
which 30 may be made by wagon and
the balance by an excellent trail, which
as put through on a wagon-road grade
by Millard and Spurre of the Champion
mine. This road and trail go up what
is known as Rowe river, a branch of the
coast fork of the Willamette river. It
is a current saying that Rowe river takes
its name from the frequent rows which
occur among the inhabitants along its
r.nks.
The Oakland route goes in by way of
Elk Meadows, a small plateau 25 miles
east of Oakland. A good wagon road
goes within four miles of the meadows,
after which the traveler must take'to the
trail for 25 miles. However, it is prob
able that the Douglas county court
will appropriate a sufficient sum to open
up a wagon road to the heart of the dis
trict. Of the resources of the district it may
In; said that there are distinctively gold
mining, the formation of the surface of
the ground making it unfit for any other
use. It is a succession of deep canyons
and precipitous ridges, with here and
there a sharp peak rearing its rocky
point above the clouds at an elevation of
from S.000 to 9,000 feet, the whole com
position seamed with quartz ledges,
bearing a good percentage of that glit
tering Midas-metal which men seek at
the risk of their lives.
In the phraseology of the miner, it is
what is known as a "base camp"; i. e.,
the gold is so closely amalgamated with
other mineral that it cannot be separ
ated without the use of chemicals.
However, enough "free milling', ore
hows up to pay good dividends, besides
piling up concentrates. The other min
erals showing, having a commercial
value, are iron, lead, silver and copper,
with traces of some others not of enough
consequence to enumerate.
The ore found in these mines runs as
high in some rare instances as $500 per
ton, but the average milling value is
from $10 to $25 in free milling. When
it is considered that almost all leads
how quite thick, from two to sixteen
feet, the practical miner will see .that it
is a profitable showing.
The development of the country has
been slow, owing principallv to the
crookedness in the management of the
Annie mine, the oldest mining property
in the district Twice has the property
been in litigation, and has given Bohe
mia a black eye on both occasions
This is now settled, however, by the
sale, by the receiver, to a Chicago syn
dicate which will undoubtedly open up
the mine and operate it to its full capac
ity. This mine has a 5-stamp mill of
old style, which was formerly used on
the Knott mine, but was removed to the
nnie mine years ago. So far this has
made the best showing in free milling
ore. It is located on the southern slope
of Grouse mountain, a little to the east
of the center of the district.
By far the most important mining
property is the Champion, operated by
Millard it Spurree, who came from
Michigan some time ago and have spent
a large sum in developing tbe property
A tunnel nearly 300 feet in length has
leen run in the Champion property, and
some shorter cuts driven on the other
claims owned bv tiiis firm, of which
they have ten. They have put iu a ten
stamp mill of improved pattern, includ
ing a wire-cabled tramway a half mil
in lemitli. running from the dump at
the mouth of the tunnel, where they
have enough ore to keep the mill run
ning the most of the winter. This mill
will be in operation by the first of next
week. The leads here allow enough
free milling ore to iiy a good profit, but
will undoubtedlv run to base at a great
er depth.
t Bohemia City, two miles west
ot
the Champion, the Bohemia Mining it
Milling Co. have a five stamp mill which
has been in operation two years. Thi
was formerally controlled by Mr.Musick
who died recently in Salem. The mill
has paid for itself, paid operating ex
peuses, and for tbe development of tb
mine, besides a small dividend. J. W
Cook is president of the company, the
principal stockholder and is manager of
the mill. Ho has had a ton of ore and
a ton of concentrates shipped to 'Frisco,
where a thorough assay will be made.
If the returns warrant, a plant will be
put in for working base ore, "and possi
bly u largo mill. This company has
eight claims, all of which show rich ore,
and aro located on Fairview and Bohe
mia mountain.
Down in the western part of the dis
trict the Star mine has a five-stamp
mill, and Whipple it Hunt are putting
in a two-stamp.
Nearly everyone who has 11 location is
developing it, but an immense territory
lies unprospected, and such is the for
mation of the eountiy that new ledges
aro being discovered where it was sup
posed that thorough prospecting had
already been done.
From present prospects, next season
Baking

will witness a boom in Bohemia such as
has not been seen since .Virginia City's

THE DIFFERENCE.
TENNYSON could take a worthless
sheet of paper, write a poem on it, and
make it worth $(5.000.
THAT'S GENIUS.
VANDERBILT can write a few words
on a sheet of paper and make it worth
$5,000,000. THAT'S CAPITAL.
The UNITED STATES can take an
ounce and a quarter of gold, and stamp
upon it an "Eagle Bird" and make it
orth $20. THAT'S MONEY.
A mechanic can take material worth
$5, and make it into watch springs
orth $1000. THAT'S SKILL.
A merchant can take an article worth
5 cents and sell it for $1.50.
THAT'S BUSINESS.
A lady can purchase a 75 cent hat,
but she prefers one that costs $25.
THAT'S FOOLISHNESS.
A laborer works ten hours a day for
three dollars per day.
THAT'S LABOR.
The writer of this could write a check
for $800,000 but it wouldn't be worth a
dime. THAT'S ROUGH.
But when we sell you HOLIDAY-
GOODS we are selling you the best
possible quality and up to date goods
obtainable for the price.
THAT'S A REALITY".
And prices at the Novelty Store are -
always reasonable.
THAT'S A BONA FIDE FACT.
