What Kills Us Off.

According to the census there were
43S deaths in Nevada during the year
1900. OF this numbe 200 were males,
and l48 females. OF the a deaths from
unknown causes Is were males, 9 fe-
males. :
The diseases that kill Nevadans ard
the number of their victims are given as
follows.
Measles 5, scarlet fever 2, whooping
cough Z, malarial fever 10, influenza 10,
typhoid fever II, diarrhoea and dysen-
terry 13, old age Is, diabetes s, consump-
tion 56, cancer 13, dropsy 8, tumor 2,
and others of the group of general dis
eases to make up the number 2l6. No
body died with diphtheria IN that year,
according to government report nor with
fever.
Forty three died with diseases of the
nervous system, chief of which were
paralysis, 10, apoplexy 7, commissions 4,
epilepsy 4. OF the diseases of the cir
culatory system % were diseases OF the
heart.
Sixty seven died with diseases OF the
respiratory system, of which 55 were
pneumonia. Group 5, bronchitis 4, asthma
l, pleurisy 2.
Twenty. five succumbed to ailments Of
the digestive system. Appendicitis 8,
hernia 4, peritonites 5.
Diseases of the urinary system l, fe-
male organs 4. diseases of the bones /,
skin 2, accidents SO, of which we're
suicides.
The allotment to consumption appears
rather high, but probably embraces
miners consumption, as the latter ap-
pears to have no other place in the re-
port. The disease, like malarial fever,
which claimed several victims, does not
always originate in Nevada.

Terrific Mine Ex-
plOsion.

A terrific mine explosion occurred at
the Daly-West mine at Park City. Uath,
at 10 o'clock yesterday morning causing
loss of life that cannot be estimated
In the Daly-West mine between 100 and
$50 men were at work. In the Ontario
were nearly one hundred more it is be-
lieyed. 1t is not known how many of
these are dead, but the disaster extends
to the Ontario, as the noxious gasses
that have been let loose are known to be
the cause OF several of the deaths.
Thirty-three bodies have been removed
from the two mines. Eight miners es-
capped through the Anchor tunnel un-
hurt. Experienced miners say that Joha
Burgy, the powder monkey" was
green man and had no business handling
the explosives.
Mike Hennessy, formerly foreman of
the Adelaide mine at Golconda Was
night foreman Of the mine when the ex.
piosion occurred but at this writing it is
not known whether he was injured or
not.

Congress-.

When Congress was about to adjourn
on Tuesday, Speaker Henderson de-
clared that it had performed more work
and completed more business than any
proceeding Congress- We suspect that
was true, but save the work which re-
lated to Cuba, what it accomplished will
not make much impression on the his
tory of these times. Not many great
thoughts were brought out by the
speeches delivered; no great policy was
announ ,ed which had for its supreme
thought the settling of vexed questions;
not many speeches were made which
showed the speakers had all the country
IN thought while they spoke.
The Philippine question became parii-
san at last and the speeches upon it were
mostly from partisan standpoint and
evidently intended for use in the years
campaign.
Not one member outlined any plan
through which the rewards of labor
could be adjusted on reasonable scale;
no effort was made to frame a statute
upon which differences between capital
and labor might be fairly disposed of:
there was no discriminating tariff legis-
lation by which duties, now too high,
might be reduced; no thought was given
to any proposition looking to an agree
ment through which the five sovereign
nations of the earth might begin to relax
the struggle to Keep on building more
war ships and forging more great guns;
no effort, that we remember was made
to prepare a statute to prevent aggre-
gate capital from drawing its tentacles
closer and closer around the ind dustres
of the people the work OF the great
Congress, save toward Cuba-was patch
work and took on none OF the features
which the world recognizes as new ad.
vance for nation, new safeguard for
people.
There was no end Of shrewd business
carried on, but the flashes of statesman
ship displayed were not enough to light
the lanl or make much impression on
the age.-Goodwin's Weekly.

Gold Ore From
Thunder, Idaho.

James K. Haggerty, an old time pros
pector, got assays on 206 pounds Of
Thunder Mountain quartz last Friday in
Salt Lake, showing value OF S3,5l3 30
per ton And he has something like
sixty tons Of this quality piled up on his
dump.
Haggerty owns ten claims. known as
the Perseverance group, out of which
the samples were taken. He went into
the country through blizzard, on snow
shoes, arriving there April 2. and has
come out millionaire in little more
than three months. He went right to
prospecting, he says, and while men were
hunting for porphyry all around him, in
quest of another Dewey mine, and others
were sinking holes to depth of ten feet
in easy places, he sunk on the ledge and
struck it rich.
Haggerty has prospected all over the
west, and was in Shasta county, Clli-
fornia, when the Thunder mountain
fever caught him. He went in as prac-
tical miner, rather than chaser after
mythical fortune. but after making his
strike, knew well enough that he had
fortune in his hands. Assisted only by
his son, he developed the first CLAIM to
some extent, and at the first opportunity
started out of the district with about
800 pounds of ore.
Part OF this was assayed Thursday by
J. w. Currie, and it runs ITO ounces in
gold, $3.50 ounces in silver, the value per
ton being $35l390 One piece of the
ore. weighing 10l pounds, was left in
Weiser by Haggerty. 1t shows 2S7
pieces OF free gold. Business men of
Weiser have subscribed S20) to defray
the expens. of bringing out 900 pounds
of Haggerty's ore to place on exhibition
Haggerty has been offered $i5o0J0
for half-interest in his claims. He says
the men who made the offer took him
for a sucker He wants 100000 for
a one-eighth interest, and that much is
for sale, he says only to representative
parties who will agree to put up as much
money for development purposes as him
SELF
On the claims there is a millsite. ac-
cording to Hlggerty, and water right
OF 5000 miners inches. The State Bank
of Weiser owns ten claims adjoining
Haggerty on the same ledge.
Thunder mountain" said Haggerty,
"is the best mneralizsd country on
earth. Idaho is the richest state in the
world. The country is no good for ten
derfeet. They might as well stay away.
But for experienced miners and pros.
pectors who understand the business, it
is Paradise. The place is rapidly run
ming over with gamblers and others OF
an undesirable class, who should be
driven out"
Thunder mountain is not the only
rich country there. Marshall lake is one
OF the richest prospects | have ever
known. Good quartz discoveries have
been made around Marble creek, an a
man named Bevins brought out piece
of rock weighing two pounds from Cot
tonwood creek, for which he refused

Reno Riders Win.

cycle race between the San Francisco
Club team and the team of the Reno

Koornmeyer of Reno and Hancock of
San Francisco. They alternately trailed
each other till they crossed the tape at
the beginning of the third mile, when
Koornmeyer made squirt and put IA
quarter of mile of daylight between
his wheel and Hancock's. Reno's riders
kept widening the gap until two miles
and flve-eighths stood to Reno's credit.
Tue best individual time was made by

Birmingham, Ala, Nov. 27.-Tne
following letter has been received by
the Age-Herald from Booker T. Wash
ington:
ITO the Editor of the Age-Herald:
l notice that several newspapers have
recently connected my name with
political matters in such a manner as
to show that my position is not un-
derstood. l desire therefore to make
the following statement:
my life work is the promotion of
the education of my race. 1t Is we'll
known that l have always advised
my people that it is of supreme i'm
opment that they should concentrate
their thought and energy on the Sc
curing of homes, the cultivation of
habits of thrift, economy, skill, in
telligence, high moral character and
the gaining of the respect and conf
dence of their neighbors, white and
black, both in the south and north
From such teachings and counsel no
influence can ever convert me.
What conferences / have had with
the president or with any public Off
Gals have grown out of my position,
not as a politician, but as an educa-
tor. 1t should be borne in mind
that there are about nine million ne
groes in the United States who are
liable under the law for taxes anu
military service, and who are pun
ishable for infraction of the law.
These people at present have no
member of their race in the national
law making body, and 1T is right
that those charged with making and
executing the laws of the land should
at times seek information directly
from the members of the negro race
when their interests and relations
with the whites among whom they
live are concerned.
Under no circumstances could
seek to promote political candidates.
or volunteer information regarding
men or measures, nor have l done
so in the past, but because of the i'm.
portance I have always sought tc
place upon education and industry
among my people as the basis for
friendly relations between the races
there may be occasions in the future
as there have been in the past, when
| If | am so requested. l can give in
formation about men and measures
which would tend to promote such
| friendly relations between the races
Such information it is my duty to
give when it is asked for.
AT every proper opportunity l
say to the youth of our people that
they will make a mistake if they seek
to succeed in life by mere political
activity in the hope of holding polit
| ical office. Now, and then, however
public questions affecting our inter
ests arise which are so Fundamental
and far reaching that they transcend
the domain of politics. When sucf
| questions present themselves, in jus
tice to my race, l make my position
known and stand for what l see tt
be the right.
I'VE cannot elevate and make use
full race of people until there is helC
out to them the hope of reward fo
right living"

LOST THIRTY-sEVEN HEAD.
Horses Poisoned En- Route From
Great Falls to Seattle.

0'o ~ SS1hS'S'
Winters, Parsons & Boomer, the
railroad contractors who finished
work upon the Great Falls & Canada
short time ago, and who have been
engaged in shipping their outfit to
Seattle, where they have a 20 miles
contract upon an electric street car
line, sustained a heavy loss while
en- route, thirty-seven head of their
great draft horses being poisoned
near Spokane.
The animals had been unloaded for
their first feed after leaving Great
Falls and soon after it was noticed
they were acting strangely. Thirty
seven of them died. and a number
of others We're put in bad condition,
and it is believed that it was from
poison maliciously administered The
loss will be over $4,000 for the stock
alone, not to speak of the attendant
damages, as the horses were the
best heavy draft which could be Sc.
cured by the contracting firm. An in
vestigation disclosed the fact that
the horses had been poisoned and
the matter was kept quiet, as Ger
tain men who had worked for the
firm while they were doing the Great
Falls & Canada work were suspected
of the outrage and time was desired
to inquire into the matter further
The men are still suspected, but
there has been no evidence as yet
secured against any of them. The
feed that was given to the horses a
Spokane had been poisoned by som,
one who had knowledge of the fac
that it was to be fed there.
