of a representative of a Pennsylvania
firm which handles large quantities of

desire to purchase rs tons of mica con.

are bu lily engaged. The WORKINGS on
these properties are more extensive
than on the gold-bearing lodges. and in
some cases there are pits covering an
area OF as much as half acre, which must

The Call.

The San Franci SEQ Call that has
been derided for years by its lively
contemporaries for its old ram-shackl'
press and Anticipated notions, has
suddenly woke up and shown a re-
markable burst of speed.
1t came out on Sunday with a big
go page edition and anyone who
says that the edition was not ''cor-
ker" as a special, don't know a first
class thing when he sees it. 1t was
replete with special articles, from
leading writer's, artistic illustrations,
good both in drawing and process
work and the arrangement of the
whole showed new master hand at
the helm. We think common fair

JUDGE MESICK.
Something Of His Life and Char.
acter.

acter.
The death of Judge Mesick adds
to the roll of dead Sagebrushers, one
of the brainiest men this State ever
knew. Although for many years
past he has resided in San Francisco,
his long residence in this State, made
him true Neyadan.
As a jurist he cert4inly never had a
superior on the Coast. He did not
depend on brilliant rhetoric and gar
ish eloquencs for his success. He
made an exhaustive study of his case,
laid up his ammunition in his Office,
and when he reached the court room
he laid down the Law to his oppon-
ents cold and merciless, and poured
the points and authorities into the
enemy with the precision of a Cat
ling gun.
He once said to the writer:
MANY lawyers complicate sim
pie case to make their clients think
that the case is SO complicated that
they ought to have big fee. The
real way lawyer should do is to
take complicated case and simplify
it"
1t was treat to sit down quietly
with Mesick and hear him talk, He
had profound wisdom and rare
humor, and when he was in his
happy moods, no more charming
conversationalist ever lived. He had
the best authors by heart, for he
knew literature as he knew the law,
and all the wise and witty sayings of
the men who welded wise or witty
pens from Greece to America, he had
stored up in his retentive brain, and
we never heard lecture from any
platform half so brilliant or instruct
i've as two hours spent in listening to
old Mesick.
He always lived like prince, for
he has earned the highest fees of any
lawyer on the Coast, and spent his
money like water.
He liked good time and all that
it Implies. He never concealed any
thing he did; he was open and above
board, and in the palmy days OF the
Comstock 'sMesick's thousand dollar
bats" were proverbial.
He had queer habit of INDUCING
in these terrible sprees just before
his big cases were called. He in
sisted that after he had spent several
weeks in hard study of case, his
brain became so weary that he found
it necessary to go on twenty-four
h our spree to rest his brain and
lear it.
His clients soon learned that there
was method in this.
After these wild swims in cham
payne, he would apparently De dead
to the world at IL i'll the morning,
and at he would rise in court just
as if he had stepped out of band
box, with his head as clear as bell,
and begin an argument that would
last for hours without break or
flaw.
The writer once heard him say:
Don't scold me for drinking,
gentlemen. For every hour | spend
in skylarki ng, spend another study
ing law.
When his hair whitened and his tall
form was bent with years, he was still
an intellectual giant, and the greatest
pleader at the bar the Coast ever saw
passed away when Mesick died.
His talents and generosity will
ever be a pleasant memory to Ne
vadans.
