THE SUMPTER MINER
?
THE MORNING MILL.
To Start Operation June J,
Says Manager Simmonds.
T. J. Simmonds, manager of the
Morning mine lu tbo Greonhoru dis
trict, who was In the city this week
says that the Bryan rotary mill re
cently installed on the property will
be In operation by tho first of June.
The mill Is equal to ten stamps and
has a daily capacity of from twenty
five to thirty-five tons, depending
upon the hardness of the ore.
Enough ore is now blocked out,
Mr. Simmonds says, to keep the mill
running a year. The upper work
ings are being timbered and every
thing is being put in first class con
dition. The Morning is among the
best properties in the Greenhorns.
An evidouce of this is tho way other
operators refer to having the Morning
ledge.
NE1TH, GZDDFSj OF WISDOM.
Neltb, Judge Evans' Rcnurkible Black
and Tan.
Nolth is a dog a little black and
tan bitch owned by Judgo Evans of
this city. The judgo ovldontly
foresaw tbo wonderful Intolligouco of
this littlo animal when ho bestowed
upon her tho iiiinio of tho Egyptlau
deity of wisdom. Nolth was proprely
named in hor early youth, which
ovoryone will attest who enjoys hor
acquaintance and is familiar with hor
remarkable tricks.
"Nolth has always boon lucky,"
says Judge Evans. "Sho is just liko
a lot of peoplo I know, who don't
seem especially good for anything
except to get the best that is going.
Just lucky devils, that's all. It's
so with Nolth. She's clover, and
everybody likes hor.
"She bas'nt an onomy in tbo world
that I know of. Sho docs all kinds
of simplo tricks which I have taught
her with but little etfort. Hor almost
human iutelllgeuco attracts peoplo
and thoy take a liking to hor, but
sho is just an ornament, tbero is no
practical utility to hor. Why, tbo
otbor day she worked up hor courago
to tackle a stray cat that chanced to
oomo into my rooms, but tbo cat
mado one pass at her and it was all
off with Neith. She rushed to me for
protection and treniblinglly nestled
In my lap. Somo big husky dog that
will fight tho dovll himself comes in
for tbo kicks of tho community,
wbilo Nolth in tho spoiled child of
luxury, aud wouldu't tacklo auything
her size for tbo world.
"Nolth has boon lucky from her
infaucy. It's puro luck that she is
living now. Hor sex was against
ber, aud it was only my intervention
that saved ber from a watory gravo.
A lady, knowing my fonduess for
animals, told mo about tho increase
in a certain canine family, but said
that tho solitary femalo youngling
was doomed to distrutclou on account
of her sex, and being a kindbeartod
lady importuned mo to save hor.
That's how Neltb camo into my
possession. I have given ber a
home, but she has striven hard to
repay ber board and keep by ber in
telligent ways. Sho has a wonderful
ly bright mind, the brightest I bavo
ever observed in a dog. She readily
understands any simplo conversation.
Of course I seldom couverse with
ber on any scientific or philosophic
subjects, but rthe is able to grasp
ordiuary every day United States
without any difficulty. Sho is only
a year and a half old aud the chances
are that in time sho will be more
accomplished thau was ever the
Illustrious Egyptian goddess of
wisdom for whom I named her."
Coyote and the Deer Lie Down Together.
F. E. O'Rourko says ho saw six
deor and one coyote Monday, wbilo
returning from Burnt River. Tbo
inference was that tho bunch wero
grazing sldo by side lu tbo same
meadow lot.
