an accident which occurred in the &c mine;

summoned assistance, and fifteen men
under charge Of Pat Mcbride eudesvored to
rescue the man. The stope overhead con-
tanned several Thousand tons Of filing.
Every possible effort was made 10 protect

hold up the great weight Of rock. while
digging away the material that imprisoned
him.

impossible to hold up the great weight,
and after four hours Of unoeasing work oil
efforts proved futile and he was entirely
crushed to death. Shortly afterwards .
great run Of rock occurred completely bury
ing the body, which is now being recovered

From the Bonanza Of January is.
Manager Oddie had two tons Of disin-
fectants expressed into Tonopah this
week.
The Odd Fellows OF Tonopah have or
ganized a Board Of Relief for the benefit
Of sick brethren in the district.
A sale OF the big company mines at
Silver Peak is again said to be on the
taps. G. ID. Lane has just completed
a thorough inspection Of the property.
The State University chemists are
making an analysis of the water used in
Tonopah. H. @. Cutting forwarded the
the water for the purpose and the returns
will arrive in q day or two.
DR.. Lee Of Carson, President Of the
State Medical Board, while in Tonopah
investigating the pneumonia plague, sug-
gested that autopsies be held in cases Of
further deaths from the disease. Two
men have died since DR.. Lees visit, but
his suggestion has been ignored.
We have received several letters this
week asking about the Golden Anchor
Mining COMPANY that has been incorpor-
ated for $500 1900, the stock Of which
is now being floated. We know nothing Of
any such claim in Tonopah. 1t is said
that there is q location below town by
that name, but upon inquiry find that no
work is being done thereon. An investi-
CATION of this location will be made by the
Bonanza the coming week.
The Auditors report shows q healthy
reduction Of county Indebtedness during
the last quarter. The County Commits
sioners have levied the same rate Of tax
alton for 1902 as for the year past, being
$3.50 or the $100-including, of course,
the State tax. The reduction of the old
indebtedness already effected, on &C.
count of the license revenues and in
creased realty valuations due entirely to
Tonopah, together with the unexpected
continuance Of the high levy, ought to
raise the market value OF county war
rants or scrip we'll on to par, even with.
out taking into count such an important
factor as the coming bullion tax. All
charges against Nye county except salar-
les will be reduced in exact proportion to
enhanced quotations on scrip, thus ma
terially aiding in the work of placing our
county's fiancial affairs on a cash basis.
The net reduction of the outstanding in.
debtedness during the past three months
was So, 233. AS, with remaining cash in the
treasury to the amount Of IS $685. "A.
