SutrO Tunnel Statistics.

A correspondent is informed that
ground was broken for the excavation
of the Sutro Tunnel October 10, 1864,
and on July 8, 1878, Adolph Sutro
crawled through the connection made
with the Savage shaft on that date-the
first man to pass through that opening.
Sutro was the first to introduce power
drills in Nevada. and made 300 feet a
month progress for over two years.
When the face of the tunnel was near
ing the Comstock lode the temperature
averaged ia degrees and the men en-
ployed could not work three hours out
of eight-hour shifts. From the mouth
of the tunnel to it's connection with the
Savage shaft on the 1740 foot level the
distance is 20, 4S9 feet and the north and
south lateral branches have combined
length of l2,826 feet.

Chicago, October 31.--Mrs. Robert ].
Burdette of Los Angeles. California, has

delivered before local woman's club.
1.-THE ''smart set" Is nothing but an

She declared that no such aggrega-
ton could ever be other than an insig.
nificant factor in the life of great Ma
ton.

woman" said Mrs. Burdette, "a large
proportion of the not over.thoughtful

Of their mental picture gallery the por-
trait Of chamelon.like creature that
battles recognition as she reflects the
horse show, the ballroom. the street.
the banquet hall, the boudoir, the auto
mobile, as creature that is all things
to all men, and nothing to any man.
She is creature whose favorite com.
panions of what is called the sterner sex
are insipid and brainless creatures, who
are called men only because they are
not women. She is woman whose
whole life is one Of questionable gaiety.
who smokes at dinners with men and
who drinks rather too much at times.
The announcement Of her engagement
brings a smile with the uplifted eye
brow and her divorce suit is accepted as
a matter of course"

To Check The Apple Worm.

E. A. Popenoe, in Farmers Reviews:
Spraying alone, though successful with
in its own limits, cannot insure the full
est product of perfect apples without
the concurrent practice Of other methods
looking to the final reduction of the
the numbers of the codling moth. The
most important of these associated
methods is the banding of the trees and
the destruction of the attracted worms
every ten days from the fall of the first
wormy apple till the fruit is all in the
bin. The second is the immediate de.
struction of all fallen wormy fruit, and
the third is the destruction of as many
as possible of the worms wintering over
under bark scales, in old birds nest. in
cracks in apple bins or barrels. or else
where in the fruit room.

MAKES DENIAL.
Reno Gazette viii Not Stand for
Van Duzer's Statements.

A few days ago there appeared in
some of the State papers an alleged in.
terview with Congressman Van Duzer
in which he stated that Senator Stewart
would be a candidate for reelection;
that the Senator was responsible for
the recent change in the Reno Gazette:
and some comment upon Stewards at.
titude on labor questions. The Gazette
in discussing it, has the following:
"As manufacturer of fiction an d q
prestidigitator of truth and veracity
Congressman Van Duzer will soon take
fair rank with Sam Davis and may
hope, in time, to equal Ananias.
M. Van Duzer's information with
respect to Senator Newlands being in
Europe is probably correct, as we
haven't seen much of him out here
since his election to the Senate, but
what he knows about the facts in con.
nection with the change of manage
ment OF this paper is considerable less
than what he proclaims. Now that the
subject is mentioned we will state that
so far as we know and believe Senator
Stewart will not be candidate for re-
election, and furthermore he was not
informed nor counseled with relation to
the purchase of this paper. His first
notification of it wasEthe receipt of a
paper containing the information.
"As matter of polite curiosity, and
not wishing to embarrass Mr.. Van
Duzer if it will tend to criminate him
self, will he kindly furnish the Gazette
with copy Of "Senator Stewards re-
cent vicious attack upon union labor?"

Alfalfa in California.

cess of O. L. Jones, who has seventy.
five acre alfalfa patch near Modesto. is
an interesting case in point. On his rs
acres, Mr.. Jones has so cows, from
which he sells annually $4,000 worth of
cream. The skinned milk furnishes
food for drove Of hogs, which return
him from $500 to $7o0 annually. From
the sale of calves he has about the same
returns. The expense of running the
place, including the pay OF two hired
men, is about $500 year, leaving him
a net profit, aside from his living ex-
penses, of from sa50o to $4,000 annually.

EARLY WHITE PINE HISTORY.
Sketch of Hamilton Mining District
In Its Palmy Days.


White Pine County was created out
of Lander County in April, 1865, and
consists of succession of valleys be-
tween high ranges. In the Autumn of
1865 q party of prospectors from Austin
being attracted to the east Of the Dia-
mond range by the view Of mountains
covered with white pine timber. dis
covered some mines of silver, lead, and
copper, and organized the district of
White Pine October 10th of that year.
Robert Morrill, and Thomas j.
Murphy were prominent in these pro.
ceedings. The first discovery was in the
region near the present town of Hamil-
ton, others following in its neighbor-
hood.
The following year Murphy and
Crawford went to Philadelphia and
organized the Monte Cristo Mining
Company, and in 1867 a mill was put
up and the ore worked. A. j. Leathers.
through the medium Of a piece of ore
given him by an Indian, discovered the
Hidden Treasure mine. from which
Treasure Hill near Hamilton derived its
name. This rich mine was sold for
5000, 900 to G. E. Roberts & Co. T. E.
Eberhardt of Austin discovered the ia
nous chloride deposit on Treasure Hill,
which was known as the Eberhardt
mine, although in making some loca-
tions with friends the richest portion
did not fall to him. The ore from this
mine was very rich and yielded from
$3.50 to s27, 900 per ton.g Ore was con-
stantly taken from the Eberhardt, Key
stone and Blue Belle mines, which was
banked up for smelling, when furnaces
should be erected.
The Defiance mine produced in one
day ore that would yield $40, 900 worth
of bullion. and had $75. 900 in sight.
The discovery of this great wealth
created fever of excitement and thous-
ands of men rushed to White Pine, rich
and poor alike, and the prospector's s
pick was heard in all directions, while
every canyon of the bare and rugged
mountains about Treasure Hill had its
sides adorned with miners cabins, hang
ing like bird cages from its rocky sides.
The excitement died out in 1869.

NEVADA PRESS COMMENT.
Tonopah Bonanza.

Tonopah Bonanza.
The outside world often wonders that
a new strike in Tonopah mine often
has the effect Of depressing rather than
raising the stock. This is naturally
confusing to one who does not under
stand the situation, but it results from
the fact that many holders Of stock in
our mines are temporarily ''stock poor"
and their desire to sell at every oppor-
tunity gives the market q downward
tendency too strong to be resisted by
the rise, which would otherwise result
from the discoveries of greater valu.
ations.

MOrgan's Schemes.


MOrgan's Schemes.
San Bernardino, CAL, October 3d.
Colonel ]. j. Sullivan, President of the
Cincinnati Clearing House, who is q
member of the Big Four Railroad Com
pany's bankers special returning to the
East from San Francisco, was interview
ed here regarding the failure of the
Shipbuilders' Trust. He declared that
the Trust was purposely organized by
J. P Morgan and Charles Schwab to
swindle the people, and its success had
been complete.
Speaking of the business outlook of
the country, Sullivan viewed the situa-
ton with alarm, saying: 1.-THE dis
closures brought about by the crash of
the Shipbuilders' Trust make it natural
for the public to conclude that the Uni
ted States Steel Corporation and kind
red combines formed by Morgan are
also nothing but swindling schemes and
have no substantial basis. An uneasi-
ness has been created in finaficiai circles
which has led to bank disasters in Balti.

result in further crashes in other sec.

another Black Friday. The financial
interests of the country are SO closely
woven together that such disturbances
in one part will be communicated to
all parts. A crisis is impending but may
be postponed"
