The Mountaineer's S Cabin

Amt no place that's half 80 dear
To the tough oil mountaineer
As the pine-log cabin he
Calls his home. There seems to bs
Sich a sense o. comfort there
Hid away from every care,
Pine,knots blazin' on the hearth
Sendin' sparks in cracklin' mirth
On sort o fiery race
Up the OIL mud chimney place.
Down before the fire he squats
Mong the skillets and the pots,
Face q glowin' in the light
Face that mebbe once was white,
Now Of 1njun tan, put there
BY the sun an mountain air.
Coffee steamin' in the pot,
AIR with temptin' fragrance fraught
From the rich decoction, an
Bacon fryin' in the pan,
or Dutch oven hesped with Goals
Bakin' biscuits-mountai rolls
That d tempt god to drop
In an give his jaws q flop.
On bis blankets takes seat
Supper spresd between bis feet.
Then you see an appetite
Wuth seein'. Every bite
Tastin' better than the one
Jest before it. Supper done
Lights his pipe an washes up
Pot an pan an plate an cup.
Hummin tunes, his heart as light
As the wings Of birds OF night.
Yawns and sweeps place to spread
Down his rough Oh blanket bed,
Wolves hovlin' like they. be
Try'n' to keep him company
Owl up on q craggy height
Hootin' him weird goodnight,
Breezes hummln' lullabies
To him through the ol' pine trees,
Evenin' cries O whip poo wills
Ringin sharply through the hills.
Not a trouble on his soul,
Not wave o. care to roll
'Crost bis peaceful breast as he
Lies an dreams 50 lazily.
Amt king in palace grand,
Amt napob in the land
Holds his envy as he lies
Hid away from mortal eyes.
An be thinks there amt no place
On the ol earth's rugged face
Underneath the starry dome
Better than his mountain home.

SILVER MEDALS FOR EMPLOYEES.

/. C. G. Whitmore, Wells, Fargo &
Co.'s agent in Eureka, received a silver
medal this week in commemoration OF
the fftieth anniversary Of the organiza-
ton OF the Wells Fargo Company, which
occurred on the 18th Of March. The
medal was designed by the late president,
John ]. Valentine, who conceived the
idea OF celebrating the event by present.
ing each employee OF the company who
has worked a year or owe with one Of
these medals.
The medal is of solid silver, the size OF
a silver dollar. and is richly engraved.
On the one side the pony express and the
stage coach are represented with the
name, "Wells, Fargo & Company" On
the other side the steamboat, the express
train and other appropriate designs to
carry out the idea of express, banking
and fidelity, with a scroll in the center
bearing the dates, 1852, March IS,
1902" The medal is encased in a neat
little case, and on the whole makes a
very neat little souvenir.

The contractors who are building cut
offs for the Central Pacific in Nevada are
largely responsible for the influx OF men
into this section, says the Carson News.
1t appears that any working man in the
middle East or San Francisco can get free
transportation to Nevada by paying an
employment Office n dollar. Upon ar
rival here he is given a Job with the rail-
road contractors, but out of the 81 per
day he receives he must pay for board,
poll tax. hospital tax and several other
things, until he will have to work about q
month before he gets any d~raw-down.
Naturally, under these conditions. many
of the men quit the job and look fol
something else. with the result that they
are soon stranded.

LOCOMOBILE FOR EUREKA.

Nevada's first automobile proves to be a To-
comobile, and destined for practical use in Eu.
reka county instead Of for pleasure riding on
Reno's drives and t~horoughfares. Wednes-
days Reno Gazette makes the following cor
rection of its article of the previous day in re.
gard to Nevada's first locomobile
Oscar j. Smiths machine is called a "loco'
mobile and not an automobile, and the
Gazette stands the call down" without kick.
ing. Mr.. Smith also says the machine was
bought by his brother. Bert L. Smith of Eu.
reka, for business purposes on the Base Range,
and it will be shipped to that place in two or
three weeks. o. J. says he wanted a little
fun as a Spring blood tonic and stopped it off
here for q little while.
The machine is one of the latest patterns.
A seat in front and one in the back, with a
black top to keep out the snow and the rain in
March and afford shade in July.
If Mr.. Smith gives every one a ride whom
he has promised, the machine will be here
three months instead of three weeks. The
machine Is run by steam, and gasoline is used
for fuel.

CONCENTRATING PLANT ron TYPO

We learn that the Typo Mining &
Reduction Company, operating the 2 G
and other large mines at Typo, Nye
county, Nevada, have cut down their
working force of men and will not in
crease the same again until after a o n
centrating plant has been erected to
handle at the mine the production OF ore.
There is said to be enough ore in sight at
the present time to warrant the building
of an u~p-to-date plant, which will be put
in as Don as possible.
The water in the lower levels has given
the company q good deal OF trouble to
handle with the present pump, and q
much larger one and n better adapted
to handling the large flow encountered
will very shortly be installed. On the
300-foot level fine large ore reserves have
been opened up and bodies from five to
twenty feet in thickness have been un-
covered, guaranteeing to the company an
unlimited supply of fine concentrating
material when they are equipped with
their milling plant and in condition to
handle it. A plant Of fifty tons per day,
it is understood, will be the capacity Of
the mill in contemplation.
There is no doubt but ere long old
Tybo will again take its place with the
foremost producers OF this section, and
We predict that the chances for it again
equaling, if not surprising, its old time
production Of nearly four million dollars,
are exceedingly 1atteripg. Verify. Ne
vada, ".he much despised," is rapidly
becoming the cynosure Of all eyes in the
mining world, and the millions produced
in the past are but q marker to what is
coming. Keep your eye on Nevada.

BACK FROM

r. A. Laird, George Young, Jr., Joe
Moline and Thomas Dixon returned to
Eureka Sunday from their trip to Tono-
pah. They report having experienced
most d~isagreeable weather during their
entire trip. Members Of this party who
several months ago located claims in the
San Antoine desert in Esmeralda county,
twelve miles west of Tonopah, and who
had been informed that the claims had
been jumped and were being worked,
found OF reaching them that the reports
were false. The claims were just as they
had left them, the monuments to mark
the claims being still in place.
The bad condition Of the weather pre-
vented the party from doing much pros
pecting, but they located several claims
at the Ryepatch, eighteen miles north
Of Tonopah, that give promise of amount
ing to something. The new locations are
quartz claims, and are thought to contain
gold in paying quantities.
They report that while only about As
men are employed in the mines at Tono-
pah at days pay, the camp is quite lively
and growing rapidly. Buildings of all
kinds are being put up. Nearly all lines
Of business are prospecting, and the sa-
looms and gambling houses are doing q
flourishing business. From the way the
people are flocking in there it is thought
the prediction that Tonopah will have a
of 10000 before the Summer
is over is likely to be verified.

A NYE COUNTY T

From Messrs. K. A. Laird and Thomas
Dixon, who arrived from Tonopah the
forepart of this week, we learn Of An
other serious shooting scrape in Nye
county. The participants, SO far as ascer-
tanned, we're the well-known Jack Long
street and "Cowitch Jim." an Indian, on
one side, and Ed Clifford, Jr.. and his
brother-in-lsw, one Nay, on the other.
The fight, or rather battle, took place
some distance south Of Stone Cabin,
about 60 miles from Belmont, and re-
suited in Nay having his leg broken by q
bullet, which went clear through that
member and through the horse Nay wa
riding. Another shot struck Clifford on
the bridge Of the nose,~ in6icting q pain
full but not dangerous wound. Long
street had his horse also shot from under
him. Whether Longstreet or his chum
received any personal injury is not
known so far.
Altogether. the casualties, 80 far as
learned, are as follows: Two men wound
ed and three horses placed hors de COM
bat-quite a respectable showing. and
one that adds dignity to the occasion.
1t will be remembered that this same
Longstreet and the above mentioned
Mr.. Clifford met in q rough-and-tumble
in Tonopah some three or four weeks ago,
without serious damage to either party.
1t is surmised that the trouble and bad
blood between the beligerents in some
manner grew out of the death Of Rich
ard Breen, a former well-known cattle
man of Nye county, whose ranch and
cattle were situated in Stone Cabin VAL
ley, and in the neighborhood of the
homes of the above mentioned combat
ants.

CATTLE THIEF LOCATED.

Last year Jack Layton and Carl Brown
we're wanted very badly in Eureka coun-
ty for stealing cattle. They were also
wanted in Lander county for the same
offense. The sheriff Of Eureka county
failed to arrest them at Beowawe and they
skipped out. Constable Mccoy took up
the chase and Saturday he received a tele-
gram from the Constable at Truckee that
Brown was there and could be arrested il
he was wanted bad enough for a reward
to be paid. Mr.. Mccoy wired Sheriff
Watt Of Lander county and asked if
he wanted Brown, and if there was a re-
ward. Deputy Sheriff Murphy answered
l." Yes, il handy. Noreward. See Cattle
Association" He then wired the con-
stable at Truckee to wait until he heard
further from him. After consulting with
members OF the Elko County Cattle Asso-
citation, Constable Mccoy wired w. J..
Merchant, foreman for George w. Gray
son at Beowawe, and Mr.. Merchant wired
the constable at Truckee to arrest Brown.
1t would seem from the action Of the Lam
der county authorities that they do not
want Brown very bad, unless he is
handy."-Elko Independent, March IL.
