Reckless Driving.

People who persist in driving fast on
the principal business streets should
be taught an object lesson. Last Mon
day night man and woman went
tearing down Colorado street, and just
as they reached the corner by the club
hotel, they run over little girl about
four years old. The child with num-
ber of others was playing near the
curb, and did not see the carriage com
ing. Fortunately the little one was not
injured.
AS the vehicle passed over the child,
the driver pulled the horse up a trifie,
looked around over his shoulder, saw
that she was not seriously injured and
at once whipped up the horse again.
A large number of pedestrians saw the
careless manner in which the animal
was handled, and called to the driver
TO stop, but he paid no attention what
ever TO the request
Marshal ORourke says that he in
tends to see that the city ordinance is
strictly enforced as regards fast driv-
ing, and the first time any one gets
reckless with the reins, they will be
compelled to step up and donate few
dollars into the city treasury.
1t is wise idea. 1t is wonder that
more children have not been injured.
We do not say that they are right in
playing in the street, but they are at
least entitled to little consideration.

Looking for Ores.

H. c. Morris, lessee OF the Reno Re-
du:tion Works at Reno, Nevada, was in
Battle Mountain this week. In a con-
versation with the writer he made a few
statements of interest to shippers Of
wet" or "lead" ores. He said that with
the advantage in freight rates which
Reno has over San Francisco he a
make 1t to the advantage OF shippers Of
lead ores of this district to ship to Reno,
since such ores are needed to work the
Tonopah and other silicious ores OF that
region. The Reduction Works also buy
coppero ores, and in fact are well equipped
to reduce ores OF all kinds. The plant
has been put in thoroughly good repair
and many improvements made in the
handling of the ores. Mr.. johnson, the
engineer of the works, was with the
Philadelphia plant of the American
Smelling q Refining Company at Pueblo,
Colorado, and left his position there as
constructing engineer to take charge of
the furnaces at Reno.
Mr.. Morris in company with F. g..
Chagnon, paid Galeoa a visit Tuesday
looking into the ores of that camp.

day.

Death has again visited our little COM
munity and the hearts Of parents, broth
ers and sisters are bleeding because
their loved one lies cold and still in
death.
Tuesday night at $40 the soul Of little
Herbert, son OF Mr.. and Mrs. Ed. Uren,
burst the bonds that held it to earth and
scared away to the unseen lands from
whence no traveller returns.
About two weeks ago the little fellow
complained of not feeling well, but moth
ing serious was apprehended by his par
ents. On Saturday his condition be-
came much worse and medical aid sum
moned. Though he had the best of
medical treatment and careful nursing it
was not to be, and peacefully, as i! in
sleep, he passed over the dark river to
the bright world beyond. The cause OF
his death was brain trouble. From Sat
urday to the time OF his death be was
unconscious most OF the time.
The funeral took place yesterday af-
'ernoon at . o'clock from the NJ. Z.
Church, Rev. z. II. Willis, officiating.
Six little boys, schooInates Of little Her.
bert, acted as pallbearers, and the little
children of the primary department fol-
lowed the remains of their schoolmate TO
its last resting place.
The services at the Church were very
impressive and the congregation listened
with deep interest to the remarks of the
minister, while the falling tears and
choking sobs gave evidence of the in
tensity and depth Of their grief. The
floral tributes which covered the casket
were rich and beautiful.
At the grave Herbert's class OF school
mates sang the song, "Sleep, Darling
Sleep"
The deceased was born at Galena, this
county, and was aged 8 years and 10
months.
To the grief stricken parents, brothers
and sisters, we extend the sympathy of
the community in this, the hour of their
affection.

A PRACTICAL MAN ON TRID.


The following Is from the Virginia
Enterprise.
Noveterinarian on the Pacific Coast
has had a longer experience, nor has
III y man had n more successful prac.
tice with horses, than has DIR, Burns
OF this city. lie makes the following
statement:
A valuable mare driven by Super-
intendent Lyman, of the Con. Virginia
Mine on the Comstuck Lode, had been
in the stable, unable to work from
the kick of another animal, received
on the inside OF the right fore leg above
the knee. The skin had beer broken
and the muscles and tendons severely
bruised. During a weeks time l had
given the limb such treatment as,
from thirty years. professional exper-
fence, | thought beneficial; but with
out avail. The leg was swollen to
nearly twice it's natural size, and the
swelling would not yield to treatment.
On Thursday evening, June Is, 1896,
| made the first application of the
liniment Trib, thoroughly rubbing in
half of n six-ounce bottle over the
whole leg. | applied it regularly
twice a day for the next three days.
On the fourth day the mare went 10
work, completely cured-the most sur
prising and satisfactory cuge coming
under my observation during a life
time devoted to the treatment OF
horses.
That was several years ago. | have
since then used this liniment regularly
in my practice. Irib fulf,ls all its
promises.
An especially valuable feature oil
Trib is that, while it has all the pene-
trating strength of the most powerful
liniments, it does not blister.
For love Of the horse, and the fell
lowship Of horsemen, l offer this ties.
timony. / know that Trib will bene.
fit both.
