CLOSE CALL FROM FIRE.
Prompt Action Prevents Ser
ious COnfiagraiiOD.

What came near being serious
fire was averted late Thursday af-
ternoOn by prompt and active work
on the part of the fire department.
At about o'clock small sheets Of
flame were observed making their
way between the cracks of the side.
walk and almost directly under the
south show window of the Nve Coun-
ty Mercantile companys store on
Main street. Immediately the alarm
was given, and in less than two min
utes, the two town engine companies
were on the ground, a hole was made
in the floor of the store and a stream
of solution turned on the blaze, which
had worked along the siIls Of the floor
for a distance of fifteen or twenty
feet. A stream of water was also
turned on the rubbish which had ac-
cumula ted under the store, and
which was burning at rapid rate.
How the fire started is unknown, but
it is supposed it was caused by some
one dropping a lighted match be-
tween the cracks of the sidewalk
onto the debris which had collected
there.
The damage to the store was nom.
inal, but as token of appreciation
Manager O'Neil presented Chief
Mckenzie with a purse of $50, which
will be added to the fire department
fund.

$4,000 to the Car.

The O'Meara-Lynch company made
settlements on two cars of ore from
the Alpine mine, near Tonopah, on
Saturday, which brought approx
matey $4,000 to the car. The ore ran
about 239 ounces silver, 45 per cent.
lead, together with some very good
gold values. The developments at
the Alpine continue better each day
and it would not be surprising if this
young bonanza would yet Guido the

of its success is the publication of

but early education, or lack of it, in

THE ADVANCE IN SILVER.

The advance in the price of silver
in London is due to the fact that In
dia and China are coming into the
silver market as buyers.
The London advance, which
amounted to three-quarters of a
penny per standard ounce, was fol-
lowed by an advance of one and one
eighth cents per ounce here. Such
an advance Is of much Importance to
producers of silver in this country,
The American Smelling and Rein
ing company monopolzes the smelt-
ing and refining of silver in this coun-
try, this metal being produced in
large quantities in connection with
the smelling and refining of lead.
The purchases of silver that the
United States government is making
in connection with the Philippine
coinage have helped to bring about
u higher range of prices for this met
al, and as these purchases will con-
tinue for several months to come
they will continue to be sus staining
influence in the silver market.
The following table shows the av-
erage monthly prices of silver per
troy ounce SO far this year, compar.
ison being made with the same period

A HOWLING FARCE.

For some days past the BONANZA
has kept tab on the amount of bust
ness done in the Tonopah-San Fran
cisco stock exchange. During the
period mentioned the greatest day S
sales amounted to So, 900, providing
they were all legitimate; the lowest,
1886. The average for the whole
time was less than sl400 per day
The rate of commission charged by
the exchange on the sales of stock is
one per cent on every dollars worth
OF stock sold Thus it will be seen
that the daily commissions have not
reached Sl4 The expense of run
ming the exchange, we are told,
amounts to between $50 and $40 per
day, and that sum is not too high,
when are considered the salaries of
three or four employees, rents, lights,
etc. This being the case, how does
the exchange play even? Is it done
by assessing all the members, or do
few of the latter pay the losses for
the privilege of holding the floor aud
bearing stocks? We would like to be
enlightened on the subject and would
esteem it great favor it some one
who is on the inside would take the
trouble to inform us how such an APP
parenlly losing game is carried on.
If they would only divulge the means,
the process, if honest, might save
many man from bankruptcy,
To those up in this country though
perhaps it is due to their obtuse
ness-it does not appear clear how
the board can carry on business from
day to day in view of the apparent
losses, and if the losses are genuine,
why does the exchange want to con
tinue on?
The favored members of the board
in San Francisco may be making
money out of the scheme, but it is a
dead sure shot the Tonopah men,
bers, who went into the organization
in good faith, but who long since
have regretted Their connection with
il, are not and they would hail its
shutdown with expressions of delight.
They, with most of the people of To-
nopah, look upon the exchange as a
farce, and as having lettering eff
feet on the best interests of the
camp. Ever since the exchange
opened, the policy of its sponsors has
been to bear down the stock of every
Legitimate enterprise in the camp;
but if a stock were questionable.
whether the property were located
in or out of the district, superhuman
efforts were made to advance its
value, and the more questionable the
property, the greater the effort. To
our notion. the exchange is measlv,
damaging absurdity, and the sooner
its doors are closed and the seal of
condemnation put on them the better
it will be for the Tonopah district
and its people.

Another Big Sandy.

About week or ten days ago
the Cincinnati Post printed an ad-
verse report on the Goals OF Big
Sandy. Tho paper stated that Sem
ator Elklns had sent a special agent
to investigate the Big Sandy coal
fields, and that the agent made an
adverse report, stating that the
geological reports OF said field
were incorrect and that the coal
did not exist in the quantities
claimed.
The Press knew that there must
be something wrong with the re-
port and therefore put one Of their
special agents on the work with
instructions to ferret 1t out to the
bottom and find the cause of su3h
a report being printed In the pa
pers.
In his Investigations he found
that 1t was true that Senator FL
klns had appointed special agent
to investigate the Big Sandy Goa
fields and that this agent had
made an adverse report, but the
Big Sandy that he investigated
was tho West Virginia Big Sand,

Rev. George 0. Barnes.

After an absence OF twenty-three
years this noted evangelist is again
in Louisa. Those who heard him
on the occasion OF his first visit
and who now nightly listen to him
find but little change. There is
the same mellow voice, but little
tonched by time and use, the same
flashing eye, the same earnest, con

hear him for the first time he is a
revelation, and, at times, start.

many a severe jolt, and they find
1t hard, il not impossible, to rec.

with mind open to conviction,

every declaration cup to the hilt,"
Mr.. Barnes began preaching in the
public square Saturday night and
is continuing services nightly,with
two services Sunday. Large crowds
attend and the audiences are very
attentive. Many OF the"old timers
very pleasantly remember Miss
Marie and the "little organ" OF
long ago. They were great aids to
the evangelist, but without them
this honest, sincere, earnest man
is power for great good.
