1t will be of interest to many to read the
following sketch of r ,bsrt J. Burdette,
whose coming to Las Vegas, to- nj PROV
night, Is being enthusiastically received by
so many friends and admirers.
Robert Jones Burdetts IA born In
Greensboro, Pa, July Both, 1874, and il
therefore 50 years Of age. During bis in
fancy his parents moved to Cincinnati,
Ohio, and thence TO Peoria, Ill. 10 the
latter place be spent his boyhood and
| youth, and graduated from the high school
10 1861. Tho war breaking out at this
time, his first move was to enlist In the
18th illinois volunteers. After his army
life was over he became night editor Of
the Peoria Daily Transcript, In which posi-.
ton his ability began to put him in de-
mand. He became city editor of the Euen.
ingsReuicw. Then he was invited
to become one of the editorial
staff of the Burlington, Iowa, Hawkeye,
in connection with which, first as
an associate editor and finally as manag
ing editor, his fame has grown. He has
always retained a relation TO this paper
and does now, but since 1876 a greater pub
lie than the Hawkeye's constituency has
clamored for him, and he has c~aptivated
thousands with his irresistible aud .-inimi-
table humor and pathos. Mr.. Burdette is
the best living representative Of pure
racy, naive American humor. He has
been not simply q platform entertainer,
but many of the choicest specimens Of
literature have come from his pen and his
contributions are sought by the leading
periodicals Of the country.

ledge is raid to be four feet In widths and
hiss been traced for $50 feet. The oreis d
IN IRON stained quartz character and the
gold is found in nugget deposits.
According to the Ne,o Mexican, tiIis; 10
