SENATOR JONES,
His Wealth and POverty-Hl0w He
Got Rid of $40, 900. 900.

The st. Louis Democrat has the follow.
ing to say of our Senator:
The unluckiest man on the Pacific
Slope, in point of wealth, is Senator
Jones of Nevada. There has, perhaps,
never been so vast a fortune so quickly
scattered as that of Jones. In spite OF
popular belief Senator Jones to-day is
poor, comparatively speaking. When he
was elected to the Senate in 1873 he was
worth at least $40, 900, 900. To-day he is
not worth $50, 600 above his debts, and his
Congressional salary is no longer despised
as a source of income. 1t would be hard
to tell where Jones' fortune has gone, or,
more correctly speaking, hard to tell where
1t hasn't gone. No man ever sunk so much
money in ehimerical schemes, invested so
much in bogus friendships, or became so
easy a prey to financial sharks as Jones.
He sunk $4,000 900 hard money in mines
in Panamint, Cal, which never yielded a
dollar. He sunk another million in the
Sumner mine, in Southern California. He
built a railroad in Southern California IL
miles long, and it cost enough to have had
every tie of mahogany and every rail of
silver. The Central Pacific afterward
bought it for about 81, 900 a mile. He
bought every ranch ever offered him; in
deed, he bought one in Nevada which has
never been located to this day. Jones'
agent could never find it. He started an
ice factory in New Orleans and a daily
newspaper in San Francisco. He never
saw the ice factory, and never but once or
twice the man that got him into it.. He
opened the st. James Hotel in New York,
and, of course, it never paid. The last
cruel wipe that Fate had in store for
Jones was the "Sierra Nevada DEAL" as
Californians call it, of four years ago.. On
a mere prospect the stock was jumped
from So a share to 1915. Jones got in at
about 5000, on the drop. The stock is
selling now for less than So a share. The
Bank of Nevada is believed to be carrying
Jones' stock for him yet. At the time
Senator Jones was talked Of so strongly
for Secretary Of the Treasury, Californians,
who remembered how well Jones had taken
care of his own money, could not repress a
smile that he should be thought competent
to take care Of the peoples.

POETS CORNER.

The DAYS when cupid sped his dart
To reach the unconcious maiden heart
Were days OF pleasure 10 the swain
Who hoped for him that heart to gain.
When he with an yOus earnest thought
This Archer's favor still besOueht
And felt most keen the pnngs OF fear
When cupid deigned not him to hear.
These DAYS we sing, when hearts were tried,
When some had hope and hope had died,
When from the Archer's constant wiring
OF bow and shaft sped on the wing
Many IL pleasant hope ran high
And many IL hope was born to die;
BIT stcrner days have dawned since then
Now maids are mdt,is and men are mea.
The love that now controls the heart,
Comes not from Cupid poisoned dart
1t is truth that all must own,
A truth of nature. inward born
That when the curse of want appears
The bliss of love dissOlves in tears,
The fool has tried the shortest line
From point to point in space or time,
And this we find Of easy note,
That man heart is down his throat
We have told you time and again if you
want to get and retain mans love you
must feed him well, for his heart can al
ways be reached through his appetite
Granting this 10 be 50, then the next thing
to do is 10 find where you can buy the best
