STATE METALLURGIsT.
Such an Office is Badly Needed in This
State at Present.

When the Legislature cOnvenes next
winter, there should be a determined
effort made to create an Office for a
State Metallurgist, or some one who
is capable of classifying the varied
ores that are constantly being brought
in. It is nearly an everyday occurrence
for some prospectcr to bring in class
OF ore that is unknown to the average
prospector and those who are versed
in the every day metals. The result IS
that ore of value is often thrown into
a corner, where it will lie and be for.
gotten.
A State that abounds in minerals
should certainly have some one at the
head who can supply knowledge on
this score. At the present time, if r
man in ordinary circumstances, or
fixed as is the average prospector, he
cannot afford to send the samples
away and pay for classification. The
State should supply the man for this
sort of work. One leoge of valuable
ore would pay for the expense, and
as Nevada boasts of her varied mineral
deposits, she should be in a position
to tell what is within her bounds.
An attempt was made last winter
to create such an Office, but it was
| voted down. Since that time there
has been revival of mining such as
no one anticipated, and a hundred
rare and valuable minerals have be IN
placed on the markets of the world
Many minerals are imported from dis
tant lands that would be valuable
did the prospector know of them. Tue
prospector often depends on the horI
as a determination as to values, ant
rock that wouldn't horn is oft II
thrown away as useless.
At the present time more gold an
other valuable minerals are takel
from rock that don't horn than fror
any quartz that does.
A man employed by the State W II
could furnish the Information regard
ing unusual deposits, would reap
benefit to the miners and those look
ing for the scarce metals. The worl
should be done without cost to tn
man furnishing the rock and a maj
be employed to do the work, and thor
is plenty Of work ahead for such
man.

Canal Contractors Reduce Wages.

HUNGRY COYOTES.
They Chase sheepherder in the Co.


A few days ago a Mexican named
Frank, and another man, drove to Day
ton from the Boyle mine and when
near Round Mountain, on the return
trip, Frank got and stated to walk in
order to keep warm. He took a cut
off, and when he got into a canyon
near Round Mountain, he ran into a
band of coyotes. AS soon as the ami
mails saw him they started to hold
and Immediately start after him. AS
they drew close he threw rocks 1t
them to scare them away, but they
kept on coming, and he was nearly ex-
nausted from the rock throwing and
fright when the coyotes stopped. He
then ran as fast as he could to the
camp, beating the wagon in by some
time. The hills about Como are now
full of coyotes, attracted by the sheep
feeding in that section, and the expe
rience of the Mexican shows that II
is not safe to travel on foot.-Enter

THE CONCERT.
Depends on Carson az to its Produs-
ton This Evening.


ton This Evening.
Word was received from Mrs. Hall
yesterday stating that the box sheet
would have to have names enough 20
secure her expenses, or that the con-
cert would be postponed. At the pre-
sent writing there has not been sold
enough seats to warrant the lady Civ.
ing the recital, or her bringing over
the people she has engaged for the
occasion.
Mrs. Hall is not stranger in this
city. The lady sang before a Carson
audience last year, and the enthusi-
asm that greeted her was due, as she
possesses one of the sweetest and
best trained voices that had been
heard in many days, Since that time
she has further developed her voice
and has had a critical audience II
musical people Judge of her merits in
San Francisco. They were delighted
with her singing and are doing ell
that is possibl to give her an audience
with Patti when she sings next month.
Carson can and should do her the
same justice,
Mr.. Darlington, tenor, who is ex.
pected to sing this evening, is one ct
the best on the coast, and his repu.
tation is broader than the small field
of Reno or this city. He, is also a
composer of some note.
Miss Jessie Levy, of Reno, is the
accompanied, and her work is rated
as the best amateur in this section
With this three, it seems that Carson
can afford to be liberal one night and
those who love good music patronize
it. Should the box sheet remain in its
present condition at II o'clock toda,
the concert will be cancelled.

SPURIOUS MONEY.
Secret Service Agents Raided an Allen Street House

Secret Service Agents Raided an Allen
 Street House.
 New York, March 31.-Twenty min utes after the arrest in Jersey City of two men on the charge of having spuri- ous money in their possession, quar- tet of secret service men descended upon 30 Allen street, New York, and confscated one of the most complete plants for the coining of bogus money that the federal officials have yet un- earthed.
 Acting on partial confession of one of the men arrested, secret service agents raided the Allen street house. where, on the top floor, fine outfit for the coining of dimes was seized. Dies were found which Chief Flynn said were almost as good as the official ones. A woman, believed to be the wife of one of the men, was in the room at the time of the raid.
 According to secret service men, the two men under arrest have circulated nearly 10000 spurious dimes since Jan- uary. They showed the "queer' by buying a lead pencil or a box of match es and receiving 9 cents in change. Hundreds of pencils and boxes of matches were found in the rooms.

 Lowell, Mass, March 31.-With the suspension of cotton manufacturing operations, ordered in view of an im- pending strike of the help for a 10 per cent increase in wages inaugurated yesterday, without disturbance, inter- est in the situation is turning to the campaign plans of the parties to the controversy. It is admitted that the struggle will not soon be ended and the moves which either side may make in carrying on the contest will be close ly watched.
 The second day of idleness for mill hands and machinery opened as serene ly as the first one did yesterday. The print works help in two of the mills went to work and the knitters in the Lawrence mills hosiery department were in their places. Considerable at tention rests upon these 1000 or more hands, who are working under sane ton of the unions, as the employees are neutral. Some of the idle help would like to have the knitters join them. The question of doing so may come up at a meeting of knitters called for to- night. The knitters, hitherto non- union, are being rapidly organized.

B. l.. Cowles: treas urere, Lieutenant Thomas Hallinan; conductor, William Noonan: inside guard, Michael Sullivan; outside guard, John Casey; trustees, Joseph P. Smith, P. Frank Moran and p. J.

co. F. WILL
VISIT HILO

Co. F, National Guard Hawaii, is
month for a weeks camping trip in
Hilo. The trip is being made primarily
at the request OF Captain Fetter who
is anxious to have the Hilo people see
Hawaii's crack company drill 1t is the
purpose of Co. F to give an exhibition
drill at Hilo along with its camp and
to provide other means of entertain
ment for the people of the Rainy City.
The Hilo excursion will cost in the
neighborhood of $500 and Captain John
son has started out TO raise the funds
which will be necessary. Co. D of Hilo
has offered to help in this part and will
give a minstrel entertainment for the
benefit of the Honolulu company.
The trip will be in the nature of a
vacation outing for the guardsmen and
as only forty will be permitted to go
out of the total roster of over sixty,
there will be considerable rivalry be-
fore the lucky men are picked. The
trip will not only be one of pleasure for
the soldier boys and the Hilo people,
but it will give them lots of good prac-
tice as we'll.
1t is Captain Johnson's intention to
camp out when in Hilo and Hoolulu
Park has been offered for that purpose.
The company will take along its own
rations and the new kitchen range re-
Gently received by the regiment from
the War Department.
The best men in the crack company
will be taken along and Hilo people will
no doubt see as nearly perfect a drill as
human soldiers can make it.
