The Token

He mad won some costly badges
On the blood-stained battlefield,
From the hearts he'd taught to love him
From the hearts he'd taught to yield;
But the one he loved the best,
That he wore next TO his breast,
Was a little wlthered flower
A poor, bedraggled flower,
In a golden locket pressed,
And his tired lips they kissed It,
As they kissed none Of the rest.
So the prize we learn to value
You will find no mark Of fame.
'Tis little simple token,
Hardly worthy of the name,
But to us tbs always bright
1t is always pure and white,
And the little withered flower
The poor, bedraggled flower,
We may dream of 1t at night,
And it tells us when 10 falter
As It tells us when TO fight.
We may kiss II, but in secret,
For 'tis sacred from the world;
And, with dowueast eyes we clasp It,
In the angry battle hurled.
But it drives away all fear
As we feel it nesting near,
Though a little wdthered flower
A poor, bedraggled flower,
Scarcely worth brave mans tear,
Yet the hard won prizes fail us,
While this simple one brings cheer.

The cbildren's Jubilee at the Springs

That the management of Brandywlne
Springs Park struck a popular idea
with the children OF the city when il
suggested a Children's Day at the park
on Tuesday. August 11th, is evidenced
by the fact that already four organ
izefs have sent IN their lists of %
names of their friends for the chorus.
This is more than encouraging, when
liz is considered that the printed forms
have not yet been distributed to the
young organizers. An original idea is
being considered. that of having a
doll baby show with the little mothers
and their babes IN contest, for which
fine prize win be awarded.

A RICH STRIKE
AT GOLDFIELD.
The Combination Continues
To Yield Rich Ore.
A Vlil Of Six Feet Unearthed in the
Jumbo Which Averages Over
$64O To the Ton.

A number of prospectors and op-
orators returning from Goldfeld to
Tonopah for the holidays bring in
most fattering news of the new
camp. The Combination mine holds
up to the most sanguine expectations
of the leasers. The hard, blue quartz
which has heretofore been looked
upon with disfavor and which at the
surface was low grade has become
enriched in depth, and now carries
uniform values of nearly $50 free gold
per ton. The oxidized and brecciated
portion of the vein continues in value
at an average of 5000 per ton. This
is the ore which during the past two
months has been and is now being
sacked and shipped. The wagon
haul from the camp to the railroad
at Candelaria is sixty-fiv miles.
Permanent winter quarters are about
completed on the Combination ground.
The Jumbo, which is parallel vein
to the Combination and lies about
900 feet north, is now opening up
bonanza ore body. This is the prop
erty, it will be remembered which
Mr.. Patrick Clark and associat tes
of Spoka ane, Washington, was
interester with others under bond
short time ago. Their rep
resentative, Mr. Hardy, threw up
the bond rather unexpectedly at a
time it is alleged when the ore in the
shaft APPARENTLY pinched out; but
which in the light of later develop
ment had passed to the south of the
shaft into the hanging wall side of
the vein. 1t is rumored, however,
that Mr.. Hardy abandoned the prop
erty not so much because the vein
appeared discouraging as because
the terms OF the lease were ZOO OnOf-
Gus. At all events, however, the
owner took up the work where Mr..
Hardy left off, and after few days
exploration caught the vein again.
At the point where it was cut it
averages six feet wide. 1t is being
drifted on now. Samples taken by
an experienced miner gave an aver
age value of $64O across the high
grade shoot, while the remainder of
the vein ran $68. The ore, like the
Combination, carries its values en-
tirely free. The Combination is now
down eighty feet, anc the Jumbo
about sixty feet.

WATER SUPPLY
FOR new MILL
The New Pipe Line From
Reservoir Completed
The Water That is to Supply the
New Modern Mill is Pumped
From Halifax Mine.

The Crystal Water company COM
pleted this week its supply line from
its large reservoir on Belmont bill to
the quartz MILL This line is indie
pendent of the domestic supply sys-
TEN and is designed to supply both
the present and future needs of the
milling company, as well as being a
fire main in case private or public
hydrants are ever installed. The
reservoir has a capacity of 1870, 900
gallons, and is efficiently high to give
ample pressure for fire purposes.
The water for the reservoir is de-
rived from the Halifax supply where
the pumping capacity now installed
is equal to 800, 600 gallons daily.
This system taken together with
the domestic supply system to which
some recent additions have been
made, puts the water company in
better condition than ever before to
meet all possible demands. The fea-
ture of fire protection through the
Independent line is one which has
been considered so as to meet the
ire underwriters requirements look
ing to a reduction in the cost OF
insurance policies in case the people
desire to avail themselves Of such
protection and reduced fire risks.
In the face of discouraging and i'll
advised criticism the water company
has succeeded in installing and con.
tinuously operating its system to the
reasonable satisfac tion OF its patrons,
The installation of this plant has
made it possible for the present Gus
tom mill to be erected The intro
duction of the water plant has made
it possible also for the mining com
panies to install steaming plants, and
gradually retire the expensive anc
alleged unsatisfactory gasoline en-
gines.

Found Dead i'm a Shaft.

Mike Murphy, a we'll known miner,
was found dead in the winze of the
500 foot level of the Desert Queen
Thursday morning. The coroner's
jury found that death had resulted
from accident. 1t is believed that
when Mr.. Murphy was descending
the ladder sometime during the night
he lost his footing and fell to the
bottom, meeting death instantly.
The corpse when found was cold, and
it is thought death ensued about six
or seven hours previously to its being
found.
Mr.. Murphy was 43 years old and
unmarried. He has a brother in
Utah who is a prominent and well
known mining man there. The fu-
neral took place to-day from the
Catholic church.
