body than any formerly made in
the mine. The property is now be-
ing worked by Fred Bierk, one of
the owners, and Thee. Vinson, John

more. There are several thousand

Lew Shaw had another portion OF
his leg amputated in Reno this week
Monday by the Drs.. Gibson. A year
or more ago Lew had his foot frozen
while acting AS Waterman on the
Carson river dredge. Bloodpoison-
ing or gangrene set in and he went
to the German Hospital in San
Francisco last Summer. There it
was found necessary to amputate
his leg just above the ankle. The
wound did not heal right and has
caused him trouble ever since the
operation was performed. Drs. Glib
son cut off about 3 inches more OF
the leg Monday as they found the
end of the bone diseased. 1t is
thought the wound will now heal
all right and give him no more
trouble.
