Lucky Investment.

Everybody in Nevada knows N. II.
A. Mason, who is spending the Winter
in Reno with his family. He was out
OF sorts, as printers say. on account Of
the disagreeable weather recently and
one day, at the suggestion OF a friend,
invested a half-dollar in the Premium
Note company. He put the receipt in
his pocket and thought no more about
the matter until Yesterday, when he
discovered that he had drawn a prize
OF $500 in hard cash. This is the
second big prize paid residents Of
Washoe county within the last six
months by the Premium Note company
OF San Francisco. The Journal but
voices the sentiments of his many
friends in congratulating Mr.. Mason
and hoping that all his investments
may prove as remunerative.

WHITE PINE COUNTY ITEMS.
Items of Interest Clipped from the
white Pine news OF april 18th.

ID. III. Jackson, an old Comstock
mining man, and lately Of Candelaria,
came in on last Saturdays Cherry
Greek stage and has spent the week
examining the Chairman property.
County Clerk Garaghan is instructed
by Judge Talbot to give notice to all
concerned that he will open the Spring
term OF the District Court for White
Pine county at Ely on Wednesday,
April Goth.
The weather the present week has
been decidedly Wintery. II came in
with a heavy snow storm Sunday
morning and we have had occasional
squalls through the week. II has
frozen hard every night. Grass and
other vegetation is retarded by the
frosts.
Two aspirants are in the field for the
Ely Postofice-Sol Hip and A. G..
House-the former a Populist and lat
ter q Groverite. II Postoffices are dis
tributed like maidens' kisses-by IA
vors-Bro. House has the inside track.
Either would fill the office acceptably
to the people.
Senator A. T. Stearns OF Eureka ar
rived here Thursday morning. The
Senator has been an old resident Of
this county, but during the last eight
years has been a resident Of Eureka.
He will take charge of the public
school here, which will open next

| petent teacher and our School Trus-
tees are to be congratulated ON secur-

An - Fake.

As will be seen by the dispatches a
man in San Diego is about to raise or
anges and lemons by electricity.
A year ago the Carson Appeal wrote
up a fake, intended as a joke on Major
Mclaughlin Of Oroville, CAL, stating
that he was raising oranges by cleo
tricity on the Thermaleto orange tract,
part OF which was owned by Edison.
The item travelled all over the earth,
and a Florida man wrote to the Ma
jor that it was an infringement on his
patent and threatened suit. The long
correspondence between the two, in
sober earnest on one side and mock
solemnity on the other, is in our pos
session and very laughable. The ag-
ricultural journals took 1t up and dis
cussed the matter with great gravity.
The French Academy Of Sciences have
tried it and report surprising results.
Now the growing OF fruit by electric
ity proves to be a great industry.
Well, did you ever appeal.

A MINT AT SALT LAKE.
Tho Police Capture the Cofner and
n Lot OF uIs Coin.


Two enterprising individuals started
a mint in Salt Lake City without the
permission OF Congress or the admin
istration. They a. ked for no appro-
priation TO run the institution and did
not wait for the President 10 nominate
and the Senate to confirm officers to
conduct il. They put less silver in
their coins than the law allows and
Hooded the city Of the saints and the
adjacent country with dollars. The
authorities discovered their where
abouts and pounced down upon them
like a hawk on a pigeon, capturing the
coiners and their outfit. The coiner
has several aliases but was known in
Salt Lake as James Hubbard. He was
heretofore engaged in the business Of
horse stealing and he has a record OF
two terms in the p~enitentiary. His as
sistant Is Dave Haynes, recently Of
Colorado, which he left for the good Of
the State.
A complete outfit OF dies, acids,
metals and all the accessories for max
ing coins, and over two hundred base
dollars were secured by the police.
Hubbard, who is a mechanical genius,
and might make his mark at legiti-
mate business, was engaged in making
dies for half-dollars, when the police
unceremoniously interrupted him and
locked him up.

Low.9rade cold Lodges.

There are a good many low.grade
gold lodges scattered here and there
over the State OF Nevada, but little at
tention has been paid them heretofore
because silver was the first attraction
and low-grade gold ore was not looked
upon as profitable. 1t is more expen-
siye mining in Nevada than in Califor-
mia, but Of late years we have got the
business down to a very fine point here
on gold ore and our Nevada friends
might profit by our experience and
open their gold claims. "Gophering,"
however, is not the way to do il. The
mines must be properly opened and
economically managed. Comstock
methods would be disastrous with a
low-grade gold proposition. II is only
by strict economy and care that such
claims can be made to pay, but there
is no discount on the product, and
every dollars worth OF metal is really
worth a dollars. +. Mining and

A Momentou Year.

In a business way this promises to
prove to be a momentous year in the
history Of Salt Lake City. The Re-
finery is assured and an immense
amount of work is being done there.
The Boulevard is as good as il can be,
and active work is just about to be be-
gun upon 1t. Now, il we can but get
the road west moving, who says this
will not be a prosperous year for this
city, Not many men as yet realize
what will be in store for a road that
enters Nevada from the east. A
gentleman is here who just came from
Yellow Pine district south Of Phoebe.
He brings with him samples OF gold
ore which represent a claim that in its
entirely will yield 1920 per ton in gold.
As the road may progress there will
be news OF important developments
every dav, and before twenty miles of
it shall be constructed. the Oldest in
habitant will wonder that il was not
begun long ago.-Salt Lake Tribune.

Observations.

Bad luck is the only kind that comes
to people that trust in luck.
Most people are willing to do away
with vices-of other people.
The mar who thinks the world owes
him a living is always in a hurry to
levy on the debt.
A load Of sorrow doesn't wear one SO
much as a swarm of annoyances.
1t has been said that a fool may ask
a question that a wise man cannot an
swer; yet both may be better for the
question.
An action may be so clothed as to
change its proper effect on people.
With most of us a sugar coated vice
seems preferable to o pepper coated
virtue.
Few persons understand the cause OF
their own failures. Judging other al
fairs As they do their own, they
couldn't tell why a barrel is empty
