Yoacham by "Josiah.

Atty Ben Sanders paid us visit
Sunday.
Mrs. Kershaw was taken very i'll
Saturday, and is still in a critical
condition.
Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. Keel of PAN
AGA spent a few days in the. valley
last week.
Chas. Culverwell left for the
metropolis Monday to be absent a
week or ten days.
Chas. Lyle of Eagle Valley was a
guest at the Hotel dc Culyerwell a
few nights ago.
W. A, Liston went to Panaca
Wednesday on business. He will
visit Phoebe before he returns home.
Mrs. Yoacham returned from De-
lamar accompanied by her son Ar
chic and daughter, Mrs. Ed Wheece.
A large shipment of fruit trees has
been received here. 1t seems that
the ranchers are going into the fruit
business.
Ben Liston started for the Muddy
Friday. Rumor has it that he in
tends to commit matrimony before
he returns.
j. |. Earl of Bunkerville stopped
over here on his way to Phoebe. He
has large supply of honey and
raisins.
Messrs. Keel and Davis of Pan
AGA camped in the valley last night.
They are bound for Delamar with
rails and Kentucky hardware" re
spectively
Mike Pearl who has been spend
ing the last six weeks in the valley
returned to Delamar Monday. Mike
was pleasant addition to society
here and will be missed by his many
friends.
A company of about fifteen team
sters have formed an encampmen
at the mouth of Antelope Canyon
They have been engaged to trans
port lumber from Smith Bros. saw
mill to Delamar and will make theil
headquarters here for the winter
The new settlement will be called
Jamestown.

Copper King Bonded.

The Copper King claim, owned
by John Jochimsen, Aleck Orr, JAS.
Price, VIM. Lloyd and Jno. Cook
was bonded on Tuesday to John b.
McGee for SO 600 on years time,
with working privilege.
The claim is on the west side OF
the Bristol range in granite forma-
ton and has been known for years
but not until the past summer has
it been worked for copper. Hereto
fore it has been held and worked
for silver alone.
The ledge is an emense one, trace.
able ON the surface for over three
thousand feet and the average value
in copper, even at the surface is sur
prisingly high for such vein.
Mr.. McGee left for Salt Lake
yesterday and expects to have de
velopment work going on at the
claim within sixty days,
The Pioche weekly record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1877-1900, 1899-11-30
Mail Service Changed.

Hereafter the mail between here
and Panaca will leave every morn
ing in the week at 6 o'clock. This
is in responce to orders from the
Department brought about by the
fact that the new contractor has been
taking mail only to Panaca on Sun
days, leaving it there, and taking
out none at all on Mondays.
To bring in six mails a week re-
quires seven trips on the part OF
the stage contractor and this has
been the cause of trouble heretofore
which we hope now is settled for
good.

A freight jumped the track near
Clipper Gap on the Central Pacific
last Friday and tore up two miles OF
track before it stopped.
Most of our Thanksgiving turkeys
this year came from Salt Lake,
They come considerably cheaper
than the figures at which they are
offered by local ranchers.
Hobson, the "kissing bug" is re-
ported to be engaged to marry a
Reno girl. Another evidince of the
sweetness of our Nevada girls. Per-
haps no man has had more expert
ence in sampling than this man
Hobson, and his decision should be
final.

White Pine has local Democratic

A man named Hormsby was ar
rested on Tuesday charged with
stealing about l6 feet of stove pipe
from the old Stein saloon on Main
St. He was arrested at Deerlodge
bv Constable Ewing, and brought
buck to town. He explained that

DEERLoDoE ACTIVITY.

Deerlodge and vicinity is the scene
Of much activity these days. The
developments made by McCune and
associates on the Horseshoe and
Homestake claims justifes the cree
ton of hosting works and ten days
hence the whistle will be heard in
the District.
The next step will be the erec-
ton of a mill or other reduction
works and Mr.. McCune, who was on
the ground last week was busy look
ing the situation over for available
millsite and water supply. The de-
yelopments made between this and
early Spring will doubtless justify
the erection of mill AS soon as win
ter SHOWS disappear About rs men
are now on the payroll there and
some 200 or more are at work in the
district.

A Terrible Experience.

just before the God of Day had
sent his rays over this part of crea-
ton, and the quiet shadows lurked
in hooks and corners, behind trees
and fences, Mr.. Jones arose from
his virtuous couch and emerged
from his caste at Cliff Springs to
see if all was we'll without Sud-
denly he perceived in the semi-dark-
ness, crouched in the shadow of the
fence, the outlines of an awful shape
that somewhat resembled an owl or
something equally as fierce and
dangerous that made hishair stand
on end and his heart go pit pat.
He siezed a gun and sent volley
into the vicinity of the terrible crea-
ture, but it dldnot finch nor utter
groan. Seemed to be utterly inn
pervious to powder and ball. Mr..
Bush came to the rescue and with
gun in hand, silently and cautious
ly stole up closer and closer to the
dreadful thing. When, to his hor-
ror and amazement, he saw
lantern, which Mr.. Jones had left
there the night before.
Mr.. Jones's aim had been only too
sure and he will either have to in
vest in a new lantern or harness his
horses by the light of the moon.
