A BOYS ESSAY
A Youths Composition on
 Newspapers and Editors

The following on "Ths Newspaper" was read by F year oil lad in a country school recently;
 Newspapers are sheets Of paper on which stuff to raii |. printed. The men look over them to sec if their name Is in it aad the women use 1t tJ put on shelves and sich. don. know how newspapers came into the world. I don't think God does. The Bible says nothing about editors and l never heard Of one being in heaven. l guess the editor is the missing link them fellers talk about. Tine first l ever heard of was the fellow who wrot e up the flood. He has been here ever since.
 "Some editors belong U the church and some try to raise whiskers. All Of them raise hell in their neighbor- hood and all of them are liars. Editors never die. At least I never saw q dead one. Sometimes the I aper dles and then people feel glad, but some- enc else starts it up again. Eiitors never nevsr went D school because editors never got licked. Our paper is c might poor one, but we take i. 90 ma can use it on our pantry shelves Our editor don't amount to much, but raw says he had @ poor chance when he was 6 boy. He goes witt out under clothes in winter, Wears no socks and has c wife to suppor: him. Paw hasn't paid his subscription Tn five years and don't intend to"-Pierceton Record.

9utput Of the k'onsIikr.

No one will ever know exactly how much gold was taken from the klon- dike fields the past season. Since the government imposed royalty, the miners have adopted all sorts of ruses to evsde the law. It's rather difiic ut to dodge taxes but it Is more difficult to dodge bad cold and the grip a, this time of year, When the sJ-tem is weakened by such attacks. and tLe blood becomes thin and impoverished, the best medicine to take is Hostet- ter's Stomsch Bit,crs. This remedy builds up the system. Besides regulat- ing digestion, it overcomes constipa- ton. IL is good for the kidneys and liver, too, stimulating these organs into the -oper performance Of their function. Nothing is So good for malaria.

ARIZONA PIONEERS
The Tra,i Blazers Who Made
 Civilization Possible

The Gazette pays the following trib- ute 10 the Arizona pioneers:-
 "The ranks of the Arizona Pioneers are getting thinner, the old men that blazed the trails are fast being gather ed to their fathers. Much is due to the men tha. pioneered the way to this savage land Of thirty years ago. How little do the people who today in Phoenix and other Arizoua cities en- joy all of the blessings Of modern civil ization consider their cost. The hil!- sides of Arizona are dotted with uu- marked graves, telling more plainly thsn words can express the privstions and struggles the Anzons pioneers felt. The palace car glides along, where years ago the cumbersome mule and OK teams wended their dangerous way. The whoop of the Iadisn is heard DO more in the land. the OK and the mule team have given away to we'll equip. ped modern railways and where soli tuds reigned supreme, today we hear the welcome laugh of childhood and civilizations busy whirl, we are thank full for the change. Yet we all should bs thankful for the brave men of long ago who brough; ab1u: the beneticient change"

Last Saturday the case of Saroni
vs. Doretti and Tognorelli on a
charge of assault with intent to kill
was dismissed in the Justice Court
of this place, and the costs assessed
to the plaintiff. This action was
taken in the case on account of the
plaintiff refusing to prosecute, the
case probably having been fixed be-
tween him and the defendants.
Some day there will come case in
this Court when the witnesses will
not all be of one nationality, and
those who monkey with the law to
aid their business interests and
square" grudges and personal ami
mosities will get dose that is not
to their liking.

On Thursday evening of last
week Will Dangberg, of Carson
Valley, was shot and killed by a
drunken Indian, known as Joe
Pete. Dangberg had told the In
dian to get out of the house, as he
wanted no trouble there, and the
Indian turned and shot him just
above the eye. He died almost
instantly. The Indian is still at
large. A total reward of $1,000 is
offered for his capture, dead or
alive; $500 OF this is offered by the
State, $500 by Douglas county, and
5000 by Chris. Dangberg, father of
the murdered boy. Joe Pete is a
dangerous Indian, and if captured
at all will probably be dead when
brought in. The Piutes hereabouts
are afraid of him, but seem to be
anxious to know if the reward
would be given to Indians if the
capture was made by them. They
think it would go to a white man.
The man that sold whisky to Pete
ought to be captured also, dead or
Ia live

COPPER PROSPECT BONDED.
A Deal COnsummated which Will
Make Business Good In Dayton if
the Property Proves OF Any Value.

the Property Proves OF Any Value.
J. H. Rae and G. w. BENEFITS, of
this place, have bonded their copper
location on the other side of the
river to John and J. H. Gregory, of
Gibson City, H., for the term of one
year for $4,000. The articles of
agreement have just been com
pleted, and work on the claim will
be commenced next week. The
mine, which is the one formerly
owned and worked by the Birdsall
Co. is considered quite valuable
piece of property, but very little de-
velopment work has yet been done
on it. 1t is situated in the canyon
opposite the old Franklin mill site
and is, in direct line, about three
miles from this place. In former
years, when the Birdsall mill and
bluestone works were in operation
at this place, considerable ore was
tax EN- out of this mine, and it was
of good grade. Of late years moth
ing has been done with the property.
Tests of the ore, which is yet only
found in punches, show that it will
go from 5 per cent. up to 40 per
cent. in copper, that it carries gold
to the extent of from 81 so to 81 per
ton; also that it contains clnnabar
and platinum in small quantities.
The first work to be done by the
parties who have bonded the prop
erty will he to construct wagon
road from this place to the mine.
They will then proceed to sink a
shaft to depth of 200 or 800 feet.
Should they meet with encouraging
results and show that there is a
body of ore in the hill a tunnel of
several hundred feet will be run
under the mountain and the ore he
extracted through this tunnel. The
Messrs. Gregory have ample means
to carry out their exploiting plans,
and it is sincerely to be hoped that
they will find good mine, as it
will mean much business for the
town, and rich reward in dollars
to those who have faith enough in
1.-THE claim to put several thousand
dollars into development work on
