answered tho Call.

Death has again summoned one of
our citizens. This time the summons
came to an old man, ripe i'll expert
ence and years. EARLY Sunday morn.
ing August Taufer heard the call
from his Master to come up higher
and dwell with those who have gone
before. ..
Mr.. Augest Taufer, the subject of
this sketch, was born in Hesse- Darn
stadt, Germany, on the 18th of Feb.
ruary, 1923. About 1850 he immigrant
ed to Philadelphia, where he resided
until 1852, when he removed to La
tayette. Indiana. When the clouds
OF civil war lowered over his adopted
country, he took up arms in It's de-
Tense. On the 18th OF September,
1861, he enlisted in Company G,
Thrty-second Regiment, Indiana
Volunteers. He rose from private to
corporal and was discharged for dis.
ability at Louisville, Kentucky, in
1862. In 1895 he removed 20 Nevada
and settled IN Starr Valley, where he
resided until 1896, when he came to
Elko. Here he followed the buei.
ness Of basket making as far as his
health would permit.
The old gentleman was familiar
figure on our streets and had the re-
spect and confidence of all. He did
his LIES work well and died rich in
the confidence and esteem of his
neighbors and friends. His death
leaves another vacancy in the shat
tered lines Of the veterans of the
Civil War. One by one they are an
swering the last roll-call. AS they
silently pitch their tents aOn Fame's
eternal camping ground" the living
should bear in grateful memory the
story of their deeds.
The deceased leaves one son, Theo-
dore, residing i'll Starr Valley, and
one daughter, Mrs. Schirley, residing
in Elko, and son and daughter re-
siding in Indiana.
The funeral took place from Pull.
mans undertaking parlors at
o'clock this afternoon and was largely
attended.
May the tired soul Of the old vet.
eran find rest amid the flowers that
bloom eternally on the other side.

gion can only be surmised. The Arch
Ran rocks in certain portions of the
canyon are known to contain veins
carrying iron and copper, and the nat.
ural inferance is that gold and other
metals are there also. Lying upon
these upturned schists, granite and

Silurian, and, higher, the Devonian
and Carboniferous formations. The

ly-to De the repositories OF large and
valuable ore deposits The limestones
and quartzites are most frequently ore
bearing In the states referred to ores
occur associated with sheets and dykes
of intrusive rocks and also in massive
eruptive rocks, as at Cripple Creek and
San Juan country, in Colorado. In
the Grand Canyon are exposed hun
dreds of feet of limestones and quartz
ties, and in some localities these are
intercalated by sheets of eruptive rock
and cut by vertical dykes. Lead car
Donate ores have been found in several
localities, one not far from the Little
Colorado. Only the difficulties of
transportation to be overcome are a
drawback to prospecting in this region.
Since lead-silver ores are known to ex-
ist there, it is not unreasonable to
think that gold as well may be found
where the geological conditions are so
favorable. The lead silver ore thus far
found is of very good grade; it is chiefly
carbonate of lead, carrying chloride of
of silver-a smelling ore. Aerial tram
ways, operated by water power fur
nished by the Colorado river, may be a
means of solving the transportation
problem. The bottom of the canyon |
can be reached at several places, but
the cost of packing ore out on rugged |
trails to height of 5000 or 6,OOO feet
is too costly an undertaking for any
ordinary ores to stand.-Mining and

| Considerable excitement and un-
pleasantness was caused on yesterday
forenoon by the seizure of the cattle
belonging to Mr.. b. A. Packard by GUS
tom house officials while they were
being shipped to Kansas. Over 1900
head were held by the government
officials for reasons which were not di-
vulged although they were subsequent
ly released, upon the payment by Mr.
Packard of a sum of money presum-
ably duties. A peculiar feature of the
matter is that Mr. Packard absolutely
refused to receive the cattle upon their
release and permitted them to be
turned out at large without apparently
taking any interest in them. How the
matter will eventually be settled is
causing quite a little comment and
neutrality-suspicious. Prospector.
A Kansas City Star reporter, who has
been investigating Senator w. A.
Clark's Jerome copper property, esti-
mates that it is worth 350,0O0,O00S. He
found that the mine ships about 5000
900 pounds of copper per month, or
per annum, which means an
income of l4,OOO,0OOS per annum. Mr..
Clark's Jerome property is undoubted-
ly the greatest copper property yet dis
covered anywhere, not excepting the
Calumet and Hecla of northern Michi-
gan, or the great Anaconda, of Mon
tana, for the simple reason that no
copper mine in existence is worked
with the facility and small expense
of the Jerome mines The ore is easily
mined, is above water and goes to the |
furnaces by gravitation from the point |
where it is mined. There is no hoist
ing of ore in the operation.

Another Copper Deal.

1t has been known in Globe for the
past thirty days that the Old Dominion
people were fayorably impressed with
the possibilities of the Continental
ground, and not until next week was
it matter of record.
The first indication that the deal
would go through was the purchase of
Harrison Jewels claim near the Con-
tinental. 1t is said that the Jewel
property is one of the best prospects
in the country.
The Continental is an old property
and has been considered one of the
prospects that our people looked to for
future benefits. Now that the Old
Dominion people are in possession,
Superintendent Parnall will not be
long in knowing how much merit there
is in the Continental and other claims
that have been bonded.
This deal insures the further en-
ployment of at least 200 more men.
Ihis, with the operations under way
on Pinto Creek, that part of the coun-
ty will be very prosperous.
VIM. Stewart, Charles Dickson and
James II. Pascoe have bonded the
Argus and Standard. located near the
Continental, to the same parties, re-
ceiving percentage down.
Jesse f. Shankland has also been
lucky in having some claims that are
wanted in the deal. Mr.. Shankland
was foreman of the Continental while
it was worked under directions of N.
l.. Amster.
The Continel is the possessor of the
best water privileges in that section.

can be developed to supply large

CONTEST FoH CHIEF
The campaign for commander-in-chief
is waxing warm. 1t is one of the fiercest
contests that the G.. A. ER. has been en-
gagged for a long time. Tonight there
are three candidates in the field Acting
mmander-in-C Chief w. C. Johnson, Of
Cincinnati; Comrade Leo Rassieuf, of st.
Louis, and Col. Albert D. Shaw, of Wat
ertown, N Y. The friends Of each Of
the candidates claim that their faVortte
is already winners A careful canvass
among the different departments, how
ever, indicates that Col Shaw tonight
has a little the better of the contest.
That gentleman, in an Interview tonight,
said that he was absolutely sure of VIC
tory, and said that the fight was almost
over. Neither Col. Johnston, nor Com
rade Rassieur would talk about the con-
test. but their lieutenahts expressed the
greatest confidence in the outcome of the
struggle. Each of the candidates has

| and Gordon of police was necessary to
|, keep the crowd back as the distinguished

President Mckinley walked with uncov-
cred head from the train sheds to the
carriages, and was cheered by the popu-

many smiles and bows. The party was
driven rapidly to the Hotel Walton, and
the president Immediately retired to his
private sitting room.
At 10 o'clock members of the United

were loud cries for a speech, but the
president merely bowed and waved his
hat.
Rear Admiral Sampson, who occupies
the suite of rooms opposite those of the
president, enjoyed the serenade equally
as we'll as Mr.. Mckinley. He stood at
the window of his parlor until the last
song was sung. 1t was some time before
the throng in the street observed him,
but when his presence became known he
was loudly cheered
