A Source of Powers

One of the greatest sources of
electric power east of the Sierras
lies within 100 miles of TOnopah by a
route unimpeded for transmission
wires. This is the rapids of the
Owens river, a few miles above
Bishop in lnyo county, California
The volume of swiftly flowing water
is undoubtedly open for that purpose,
although below the greatest fall it Is
fully appropriated and divided for
irrigation purposes, which important
and necessary prior right and inter
est would not be antagonized or in
terfered with in the least. The river
flows through narrow, steep banks
and is of sufficient volume to raft
logs. were the boulders removed from
it's bed. A plant to develop 10000
h. p. could be installed vita proper
tionately less engineering difficulty or
expense than at any other place
known, and that capable of duplica-
ton or almost indefinite expansion.
Utilization of this by Tonopah would
for all time solve the problem OF
cheap light and power for pumping
hosting, crushing and all other in
dustrial demands as they occur. II
it were asked why this opening for a
great work has not already been
awaited OF, the answer is that that
country has "a score of smaller
streams of cheaper adaptation and
sufficient for all prospective purposes

THE MINES OF EsMERALDA.

The development and opening of
the great mines Of Tonopah district
is of widespread beneiit-and par
ticularly should this be the case with
Esmeralda county. The ores and
physical characteristics OF the two
sections are much alike, and Esmer-
aida county has produced treasure
enough from its mines to place it
well up in the list of mineral produc-
ing counties. Aurora, Pine Grove,
Silver Peak, Candelaria, Hawthorne
district, Garfield district and Silver
Star have contributed over $50, 900,
600 to the wealth of the world and
while straight silver mining is de
pressed owing to the deprecated
price, still so large number of the
known mines are gold properties
that activity should be the rule, But
all mining became depressed and the
county became almost depopulated
when silver dropped and it is but
recently that mining has taken an
upward turn.
Pine Grove has been a steady gold
producer and has produced about
$1,000, 600 Extensive works for
deeper mining in this large ore pro
ducing zone are being planned.
Aurora, with a record of $l5, 0O0,
900, is about to be equipped with
electrical machinery for pumping,
milling aud mining, and in time will
be great producer.
Hawthorne district, with total
production of 81 900, 900, is to be
equipped with mills and active work
inaugurated, which means heavy
production.
At Silver Peak with record of
1000, 900 active work is under way,
and ere long Red Mountain district
will reverberate with the thunder of
hundreds of stamps, and wealth of
gold will be poured out.
Candelaria and Garfield, with
Joint production of over S22, 900, 600
do not show much activity, but i'm
proved methods and processes and
cheaper machinery and material will
in time render them productive.
Silver Star still produces some
bullion, but active exploitation is
needed The Klondyke mines are
being opened and a large body of
good gold ore is shown up Wash

How n Massachusetts Regiment Won

Distinction.
Gen. Nelson A.. Miles tells a good story
Of a Massachusetts, regiment which was I'M
der his command in the Spanish American
war. The incident occurred just after the
skirmish at Guanics, following the landing
Of the Puerto Rican expedition. As q
Spanish attack was momentariy expected

was extreme. For hours they lay along the
brink OF the hill listening to the noises Of
the forest and awaiting the expected at
tack. Presently a man at the extreme end
OF the line could stand the strain OF the
silence no longer, and raising his rife he
bls1ed away into the darkness. This was .
signal for the whole company, and instantly
every man was shooting into the darkness.
The sound of the firing reached General
Miles's tent; orderlies mounted and hast
ened to the front. The entire army was
aroused and arranged for action. General
Miles and his stan started for the scene OF
the fight.
Out on the firing line there was a mo-
ment OF confusion; then the officers sue
ceeded In stopping the shooting and began
a hurried search for the man who started
it. Presently they located him down at
the end Of the line, whore a private named
Parkinson was stationed. Striding up to
the author Of the midnight alarm the in
dignant oficer shouted:
Parkinson, what in thunder were you
shooting at?"
oh" replied Parkinson, with apologize
drawl. 81 was Just shooting at random"
"And ever after that" says General Miles,
when he tells the story. the Sixth Massa-
chusetts was known as the 'Randoms.'"

WHEN EYES GROW TIRED.
Fatigue of the Muscles and the Way
to Relieve II.

Fatigue of the Muscles and the Way
to Relieve II.
People speak about their eyes being tired,
meaning that the retina. or seeing portion,
Of the eye Is fatigued. but such is not the
case, as the retina hardly ever gets tired.
The fatigue is In the inner and outer
muscles attached to the eyeball and the
muscles OF accommodation which surround
the lens OF the eye. says the Detroit Free
Press. When a near object is to be looked
at this muscle relaxes and allows the lens
to thicken, Increasing its retroactive power.
The inner and outer muscles are used in
covering the eye on the object to be looked
at, the inner one being especially used
when a near object is looked at. 1t is In
the three muscles mentioned that the IA
tigue is felt, and relief is secured tempo
rarily by closing the eyes or gazing at far
distant objects.
The usual indication Of strain is a red
ness Of the rim OF the eyelid, betokening a
congested state of the inner surface. &C
companied by some pain. Sometimes this
wearniness indicates the need of glasses
rightly adapted to the person and in other
cases the true remedy is to massage the eye
and its surroundings. so far as may be. with
the hand In cold water.

APPROVE THE WILCOX VERDICT
PeopIe of Elizabeth City Applaud the
Decision that He Killed
Nellie CrOpsey.

ELIZABETH CITY. N. C., March a.
The verdict that young Wilcox was guilty
of the murder OF Miss Nellie Cropsey seems
to meet popular approval, though it was not
considered probable early yesterday that
the jury would SO report. District Attorney
Ward said yesterday he never looked for
any verdict other than murder in the sec
ond degree.
Lawyer Aydlett for the defense will enter
an appeal on behalf OF the prisoner. He
will seek to set aside the verdict on the
ground that 1t was not consistent with
the evidence brought out in the trial. There
is little prospect of the prisoners paying
the death penalty on the date set by Judge
Jones. As the supreme court does not meet
till next September, it is more than prob
able that 1t will be twelve months before
the case is disposed of finally.

a story-teller to a Detroit Free Press man,
''an Of course l had every chance to study
Lo as he is. Some Of the young bucks were
ready to laugh at a good thing. but the old
chiefs stuck out for dignity in a way to
make you look solemn.
"One OF the big chiefs was named Buffalo
Hunter, and In his day he had lifted plenty
Of white scalps. II others could forget what
he had been, he couldn't. He'd sit around
the post traders store for four hours at a
time without even fetching a grunt, and II
anybody rubbed elbows with him he tried
to freeze his very soul with a glare.
After a time l made up my mind to
give the old fellows dignity a test. He
always arrived at a certain hour, attended
by a small r~etinue, and one day, when I
caught sight Of him coming over the ridge
a mile away. l dropped a silver quarter
into the stove. il was good and hot lying
on the floor near the door when Buffalo
pulled up his pony and dismounted. He got
dow with the dignity Of an emperor, and
without a look around him he entered the
store. That quarter caught his eagle eye
in a jify, and he didn't consider 1t beneath
his dignity to stoop and pick 1t up.
"Well, the way he let go OF that red
hot coin again." laughed the joker. was
worth going a mile to see. He jumped clear
of the floor at the sam time and the yells
he uttered come to me In my sleep some-
times and raise me out Of bed. There were
half a dozen Of us In the plot and ready TO
guffaw, and when old Buffalo realized the
situation he knew that his dignity was lost
forever. He glared around for q minute with
murder in his eyes. and then he hustled out
doors, leaped upon his pony and made a
bee-line for a saloon at the edge OF the res
ervation. / don't know how much whisky
he soaked up, but two hours later he re-

Az the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

One Of the best bills Of the season opened
a weeks engagement at the Creighton
Orpheum yesterday. There is not a bad
act in the eight and several which might
be called headliners. Old favorites furnish
a large share Of the amusement and are
we'll received. Milton and Dollie Mobiles,
whose years before the public have in no
wise dlmmed their popularity or diminished
their ability to please, have a really clever
comedy sketch, which was greatly relished
yesterday. IL is clean in every sense and
decidedly funny. Melville and Stetson, who
also seem to have arrested time, give an
entirely new act with all their wonted dash.
These are without question the celeverest
team in vaudeville. Vera King and Susie
Fisher sing. Miss Fisher has a remark
ably heavy voice for a woman and gives
Beyond the Gates OF Paradise and An-
chored" with much expression. Miss Kings
monologue and coon" songs we're well re-
ceived. Knight brothers are good come
dams. Banks and Winona Winters made
a hit with their sketch, Miss Winters sweet
voice completely captivating the audience.
No more capable acrobats were ever seen
in Omaha. and their horizontal bar act
has the merit Of novelty, as we'll as excel
lenoe. New pictures from the kinodrome
include the launching Of the German en-
peror's yacht. Meteor. showing Miss Roose-
welt, President Roosevelt, Prince Henry and
the entire party Of distinguished people

however. Though Dave Lewis Is not Louis

less a capable man in the abortive part, and
furnishes in a satisfactory manner eleven
tenths OF the real humor in the play, which
he is supposed to do.
others Of the principal characters are
different from those who we're with this
play the last time 1t showed here, two
years ago. Arthur Conrad is now Snuff
fes, and dances better than his predeces-
sor, besides singing just fairly. Pearle
Hight is a new Estelle, the telephone girl,
and her departure from vaudeville for this
purpose was warranted, for she is pleasing
in the new role. Anna Conrad as Mrs.
Puffaway carries the strong musical hit In
her handling OF the RIP Var Wrinkle" song.
All the other oldtime favorites, TITS Up
to You, Babe II Know Them All" and
The Belle Of the Telephone" we're plainly
satisfactory. Marion Hyde as Clementine,
captain of the telephone girls, is the life
