McCarty hooked trout that would
give one the shakes to look at. The
head OF the fish was like the stub OF an
arm that had been amputated. The
lower jaw extended outward for about
two inches and was covered with teeth
as was also the tongue. The fish has
been given to the University and will
be preserved in alcohol. In every re-

Wedekisd IN the hills ten miles south
east Of Reno aud i've minutes from the
v. q T. track siat promises to be of
inestimssls bsuset 70 the copper min
ing industry ID wsstern Nevada. Mr..
Wedekind found an almost mex haust-
ible deposit Of . uineral carrying asper
cent sulphuric sod. tits In the nature
Of an alum deposs:. but what other In

determined,
On thss md . . spring that Hows
wAter 20 highly impregnated with alum
that Il ID Impossible to drink It.
After the locations were made Judge
Wren WAS consulted about the deposit
and he made certain tests which con.
clusivsly proved that a new process
has been discovered for working cer-
tain grades Of copper ore.
The prooese consists in reducing the
newly found fnatesial to solution, In
PRODUCING eithsr the oxide or carbonate
ores Of copper and preclpi.a ting on
iron.
Z No nevelsy isclGimed for the method
The only diicovery Il in the nature Of

Itvqufres only an hour or two for a
sheet of iron to become pure copper. A
Journal reporter laid his knife in the
solution for Ave seconds and Ii Is beaa-
tfully coppered.
The merit Of the new find Is in the
cheapness BY which ores can be worked,
- the process Is simple and the raw
materials are easily obtainable in un-
limited quantities.

AT THE SAPHO.
Work Is Resumed in That Proper
~ This Week.


Work was resumed in the Sapho tun-
mel this week aud some fine looking
samples OF ore were brought to town by
Manager Weber as result OF the first
days work. An active season is PLAN
ned for this property, and although
little has been said as to Its merits in
the past. it has made an excellent show
ing In it's early Development.
The Sapho group, which includes
the sapho, Bobtail and Uneeda mining
claims, is excelently situated, lying be-
tween the Ely Mining and Milling Com
pany's property on one side and the
Union and Blackstone claims of the
Mckinley Mining and Smelling Com
pany on the other, while the Chairman
is a close neighbor on the south,
The ledge running through the prop
erty Is strong and well defined, and
from the twenty y-hye-foot shaft sunk on
the outcroppings assays show values
ranging from s26.04 to S16 in gold and
from 500. SO to $18 in silver, the total
values ranging from $40 .92 to s34.6 go.
These values proving so satisfactory it
was determined to run tunnel from the
mountain side to tap this big ledge at
depth Of about 400 feet and this is now
In 250 feet, with an estimated distance
of $50 feet to go. This work is to be
pushed with all possible speed and in
addition the shaft is to be sunk on the
ledge to connection with the tunnel.
To facilitate this work hoist is to be
installed as soon as another hundred
feet has been added to the depth of the
shaft and there is no doubt that the de-
velopment work thus outlined will open
up valuable mine

THE SUBSIDY OUTLOOK.
Probability of the Log.
Rolling Their scheme Through


1t is reported from Washington that,
in spite of the fact that the new sub
sidy bill has been framed with the view
of attracting support that failed to
rally to the original bill. the project
has won little or no additional favor
and can count on very few strong ad-
vocates. Those who were the most
earnest and vigorous in opposition TO
the former bill are nearly or quite all
as strongly opposed TO the new bill,
and those who were simply cod toward
the scheme at the last session occupy
the same attitude to-day, convinced,
they are said TO be, that not a single
promise of the subsidy promoters is
TO be relied on. Comparatively few
republican members care lie talk about
the bill, and from such knowledge OF
the situation as can be obtained, it Is
regarded as unlikely that il will pass
on it's merits or popularity, says the
Binghamton IN. W Leader.
1t was, however, intimated some
time ago that the subsidy promoters
might succeed in logrolling their
scheme through congress, or insure its
success by making the security OF
other legislative interests depend upon
the fate Of the subsidy bill. Such tao
tics as this would, of course. be a sug-
restiye indica lion of the concern Of
the subsidy people for the public well
fare. which they pretend would be sub
served by the success Of their scheme
Nobody will. however, be surprised at
ANYTHING the advocates of this meas
ure may do to secure its passage. for
nobody can be in doubt that the sole
purpose Of those who are behind ii is
to tap the treasury. Overwhelming de-
feat Is the fate the bill deserves, but
IL, NAV not get It's deserts.

Of what's lcft.-St. Louis Republic.
As il was with Arthur so il VIII
be with Roosevelt. The influence Of
President Mckinley has departed from
the republican councils-witness the
swift s%mothering Of reciprocity. That
influence will soon cease to have even
reminders in the aGministration.-N-
Y. World.
The president is positive in the
opinion that there should be no gen
eral revision of the tariff. He adopts
the fallacy that business panics are
created by tariff revisions, and has
that to say as regards the tariff being
framed in the interests OF labor which
is more appropriate in partisan ar-
peals than in a presidential document.

Senator Hanna has assumed a new
role in the interview which he gave
out prior 10 his departure for the con-
ference of the American Civic fedora
ton. The chairman of the republican
national committee as a social REFORM
err, pure and simp.e, is a character TO
which the pubic has not accustomed
itself, says the st. Louis Republic.
For Chairman Hanna has never been
known as a philanthropist. In his in
teresting statement regarding his part
in former strikes and their settlement
one fact stands out clear and distinct.
His appearance in labor troubles has
always been coincident with a pend
ing political campaign where his
friends were arrayed against the labor
organizations.
In the present instance there are
reasons why he cannot lose money or
prestige among the trusts by advocat-
ing a mutual disarmament in the in
dustrial world"
Yet that such a conference as the
recent one in New York should be made
the tool of a political manager is to
be regretted by all true f~riends'of the
American Civic federation. Of Hanna
is using the conference as a stepping
stone to the republican nomination Tor
the presidency in 1904, or if he expects
to peat Foraker in Ohio by proclaiming
himself as a social Moses, he IS a
trickster in either case.
If Senator Hanna intended his inter-
view strictly for Ohio consumption,
he has missed his mark. His agility
in stepping to the breach in labor
troubles only when his own ends may
be served is too Wei known. a little
more disinterestedness on the part OF
the aspiring republican politician
might after many years change the
public estimate of his character, but a
