A NEVADA SWINDLER DISCOVERED.
ST. JOSEPH, Mo, Jan. S.-This morning
J, f. Price, of Humboldt county, New,
succeeded in arresting Emil Drummelfoss,
who is wanted in that county for swindling
a company of eastern capitalists out OF
So Drummelfoss was located in
miserable howell on Bing's island, situated
in the middle of the Missouri river, about
two miles south of the city. When ar
rested he was clothed in rags, scarcely
enough to keep him warm, but on his per-
son was found $1,000 in bills Of large de-
nominations
The crime for which he was arrested was
committed last July. when he and an ac-
complice successfully duped couple OF
easteen men on salted silver mine. The
information given by Mr.. Price was to the
effect that lascJuly Drummelfoss and his
confederate made a great deal OF noise
about the discovery of a rich vein OF silver.
They carefully guarded their treasure
until the arrival of company -of capital
lists from Allentown, Pa, two OF whom
were related to Drummelfoss. Upon the ar
rival of these gentlemen shaft was sunk
and large quantities of rich ore brought to
the surface. A trade was consummated,
by which the capitalists were to purchase
the bonanza for 0,000, one-half OF which
was paid down. Shortly after the recelpt
of the money both men disappeared, and
in few days the ore was exhausted. The
sheriff left tonight with his prisoner. All
trace of the confederate has been lost.

Tired Of High, Life.

Political hoDors in all parts of the
country seem To be empty of satisfy

ernor Bob" Taylor of Tennessee, who
is nearing the close of his term, Is
looking forward eagerly to retirement
To private life. Speaking the other

of the Watauga river, used to steal
an hour occasionally to sit under the
sycamore trees and dream of the future.

went to the city, learned few legal
phrases and my ambitions were to go
into politics. Ny people sent me to
Congress, where | sat for two years
with the great men of the country.
Ny dream was then to be Governor
of Tennessee, the greatest State of the
Union, and thought my happiness
would be complete. For two terms
the people of Tennessee honored me
with the position of chief executive.
NV ambitions have all been realized
i have mingled with the great and
rich men of the country and have been
on a high pinnacle in politics; bnt |
say to you, after careful review of
the past, sigh to rest me again under
the shadow of the old sycamore tree
on the Watauga, and live again the
life of farmer boy. There alone is
perfect peace, joy and contentment.

my greatest desire is to get on a good
farm, with my wife and children, and
there pass the closing years of life."

Giants are generally dull, heavy
minded, as well as heavy-bodied, and
although sometimes possessed of enor-
nous strength, are often slckly
knock-kneed, and not unfrequently
idiotic, forming striking contrast to
to their opponents the dwarfs, who
are generally quick and intelligent
As Shakespeare says
To have giants strength.
but it is tyranous
To use like 1t like giant.
And we may congratulate ourselves
that they generally do not know how
to use it. During the seventeenth
century the Empress of Austria gath
cred together at Vienna all the giants
and dwarfs to be found in the Ger
man Empire. They were all housed
in the same building and there were
some apprehensions that the dwarfs
would be terrified at the sight of the
giants. Instead of this, however, the
dwarfs teased, insulted, and even rob-
bed the giants, just as the redoubta-
bic Jack and Hop % Thumb do in the
children's story books, until the mon
sters were forced TO pray for protec-
ton from their lively little enemies.
Virey lays it down as a general prin-
ciple that the bigger u mans body
the smaller his mind, though he will
of course allow few exceptions.
Tall men," said he, "are mostly tame
aud insipid, like watery vegetables;
iusomueh that we seldom hear OF a
very tail man becoming great man. ;
They do not even make the best SOL
diers; and it may not be insignificant
that tie conquerors of the world-Al.
exander the Great, Julius Caesar and
Napoleon were all little men, while
Attilla, who overthrow Rome, was n
mere dwarf. Wanley, in his "Won-
ders of the Little World" quantity
says: "As the tallest ears of corn are
tie lightest in the head, and the
houses many stories have their upper
most rooms the worst furnished, SO
human fabrics which nature has raised
to IA giant-llke height are observed not
to have So happy a composition OF the
brain ITS other men" On tile whole,
in stature, as il other things, perfec-
tion appears to lie in the golden mean =.

The White Pine news. [volume] (Treasure City, Nev.) 1868-1906, 1890-07-05

The Company own 5000 feet OF
placer ground in Robinson Canyon,
commencing at the mouth of the
canyon and running 5000 feet along
its course to the Joanna mine. They
have sunk two shafts-one about l 900
feet from the mouth of the canyon,
and at depth of 40 feet find large
quantities of black sand, with good
prospects of fine gold, and have not
reached bedrock. Shaft No. 2 is about
5000 feet from the mouth of the
CANYON and the rim rock was struck
at depth of 30 feet. This prospects
we'll in coarse gold and is getting
richer as depth is attained on the rim
rock. Several pans taken out of the
incline going as high as 30 cents TO
the pan-the gravel averaging about
8 cents to the pan-leaving no doubt
that the channel is rich. Some pieces
on the rim rock weighed as high as
is cents. The company is going to
start several other shafts to thoroughly
prospect their ground, and have every
confidence of finding placers that will
rival the richest spots in California in
the palmiest days.
The recent storms and heavy snow
have retarded prospecting, but the
company has determined to have
things in shape to take advantage of
the spring thaws, and will sluice
enough dirt to prove beyond doubt
that the ground is aividend-paying
investment.

ensuing six months are as follows:

commented on it at lengthy. He then

nominee for congress, is trying the
great evolution act in his efforts to
straddle both the Republican and AL

he is making fair progress in that direc-

cut off one leg or the other. He must
explain which he is. a Republican or
