Work is Two-Thirds Done.

c. s. Rogers of the Western Pacific
surveying department arrived last night
from the East, says the Silver State and
is transacting business in the pew roads
interest here to-day. He will leave for
Reno on No. 3 this evening.
Mr.. Rogers states that the surveying
is progressing rapidly. Mr.. SCOTS party
ia now at Beowawe, working east, and
Mr.. Harlowe aud crew are at Deep Hole,
heal the west end Of the Black Rock
desert, about 100 miles west Of Winnie
mucca. Several new parties have re-
Gently been added, the latest starting out
from Salt Lake a few days ago t. work
west and meet the party now farthest
east OF the lne, in charge of Mr.. House.
"We are getting well along with the
survey" Mr.. Rogers said. I'VE have
very close to two thirds of the location
survey work done now, and this work
will be finished before winter comes on.
The company is still sending out the
same rush orders aud we are going as
fast as we can, but are aiming to do the
work well. The progress being made is
highly satisfactory to all concerned"

Repairing the Bridges.

l.. E. Kendrick having taken a con-
tract from the county. has had n couple
of men a. work for several DAYS putting
ia a false floor on the steel bridge as the
one put in when the bridge was erected
WIS wearing away. The lumber APP
proach en- the north side of the river
was taken away and replaced by dirt
which is an improvement over the old
one. One of the small bridges below
the big bridge was also repaired as the
timber had become rotten and was con-
sidered dangerous To pass over. Some
other improvements have been made
on the road which were greatly III need
of repairs.
Commissioner Lemaire has examined
the work aud is well pleased with the
manner in which the work has been per-
formed.

A Gene Made From Paper.

II. II. Lemaire, proprietor of the Ne
vADAN, received yesterday from John
Kane, an inmate of the Utah State
Prison, a cane which with the exception
of a steel rod and tip and a highly pol
ished horn handle, is made entirely Of
paper cut from copies of the CENTRAL
NEvADAN.
1t is an oddly and a very fine piece of
work and the cane has had many adj
mirers to-day who say that it is about as
pretty a cane as they ever looked at.
1t is said that there are about 10000
~thicknesses of paper between the handle
and the tip, and the edges are almost as
hard as iron.
The cane tapers evenly from handle
to tip, and its general color may be de-
scribed as a gray, the white paper and
that which has been printed upon and is
therefore black, alternating in narrow
rings. The surface formed by the edges
of the 10000 sheets or "washers" has
last beer polished. probably with a hot
iron until it has "a gloss-like polished ma
hogany.
1t certainly is a souvenir which is high
ly priced by Henry.

LET'S naye an Exhibit at The Fair.

The great mineral wealth of Lander
county We believe, has never been justly
advertised. 1t is a lgmentahle fact that
this district has been repeate .ly retarded
aud belittled by those who rightfully
should sound its praises loudest.
But a rare opportunity o. presents
itself to do some telling 'boosting."
Notice has already been given of the
proposed Nevada mineral exhibit at the
st. Louis Worlds Fair. Now it is up to
the progressive citizens OF Lander county
to get together and have a first-class
exhibit at the Fair which will be viewed
by countless thousands and the adver.
Using derived will be inestimatable.
Do not leave it to the established
companies, operating proven properties,
to furnish the exhibit, They are not
the ones to be benefited and conse-
q~uently are but little interested. 1t is
the p~rospector and the email wner who
have promising prospects and who are
DESTROYS of securing capital for devellp
ing purposes, who will profit most
through the notoriety.
The NEvADAN would like to See this
county have an exhibit at the Fair and
she can if the people will cooperate
and help each other and if everyone
show a personal interest the success of
the local exhibit ia assured.
Now is the time TO take the matter in
hand without further delay and it now
remains to be seen who will take the
lead in this matter.

VIII Return TO Nevada.

Congressman Van Duzer will leave
Washington on the Doth for Tonopah ac-
companied by Congressman Livingston
and S. C. Slater and @. G. Glover Of
Washington, ID. G. MIR. Glover is ore
of the wealthiest men in the Capital
City, being the controlling spirit in the
Riggs National Bank and being largely
interested in numerous great corpora
tons. Mr. Slater is also a man of
wealth. Both are inclined to put their
money into good things, and it is very
probable that Van will give them 4 run
for their rhino-if some of our home
promoters don't get the first whack at
'em'.@Tonopah Miner.

Mrs. Mollie Allen, of South Fork,
KY, says she has prevented attacks
OF cholera morbus by taking Chamber
lain's Stomach and Liver Tabelets
when she felt an attack coming on.
Such attacks are usually caused by
indigestion and these Tablets are
just what is needed to cleanse the
stomach and ward off the approach

Death of an Old Pioneer.

Timothy Connolly, an old pioneer OF
Lander county, was found in his cabin
at Yankee Blade, last Sunday morning
which is about five miles north OF Aus
tin, in a dying condition and died soon
after being found. When he was found
water was given him but he was unable
to swallow it as his tongue was so
badly swollen.
The lips and mouth we're also swollen,
which indicated that the man had been
without water, and ever food, for a long
time. While there was plenty Of -four,
bacon, beans and other supplies in the
cabin, there was not a mouthful OF cook
ed food to be found. 1t is thought that
deceased was stricken with paralysis
and fell to the floor. He was unable to
help himself and died of hunger and
thirst.
He was clad in only an under and
outer shirt, and his hips were sore from
lying on the floor. His feet and hands
were badly swollen, but the remainder
of his body vas terribly emaciated,
being nothing more than skin and bones,
and it is supposed would not weigh
more han go pounds, while some years
ago be would tip the beam at 200 and
over.
Deceased was one OF the pioneers OF
Austin, and at one time realized quite IA
competency from a lease in the Frost
mine on Lander Hill, but like many
others, dropped his earnings into the
hands of the stock sharps in San Fran
cisco.
He was about 70 years OF age and u
native of Ireland.-Reveille.

Two Convicts Caught.

Two OF the criminals who escaped
from Folsom peniteutiary, j. w. Woods
and Joseph Murphy, have been cap
tured in Reno, Murphy being taken
Sunday night and Woods Monday morn
ing. Miller, another convict, who was
with Woods and Murphy, managed to
escape from the officers and up to last
accounts had not been captured.
Shortly after they were locked up they
were interviewed by reporters of the
Journal and Gazette. When asked by
the Journal reporter his hopes for the
future, Woods quoted the following
lines:
Let no block of costly marble
Mark my resting place,
When the lid of the coffin
Hides my pallid face.
"Let the green grass grow above me,
Through it the wind shall wave,
| would not have old friends hereafter
To know my grave.
"Thcre is one, and but one only
Who would shed a tear for me
And that is dear old mother
Whom I've wronged most bitterly.
81 have no hope for the future,
Only one boon do l rave:
That my spirit, like my body,
Rest forever in the grave"

cation, equivalent tn nearly 1000

Others in Idaho county who had
planned to file on timber land and

In conclusion will say that if l

is nothing in the actions of Mr..

apolcgy is due. Some $3.50, 200

cured for Idaho, though it was
necessary to tread on the toes o.

accomplish that result. In spite
