\ Prominent Nevada Mining
Mans Story.

L. T.. Patrick, one OF the l%easers
OF the Combination and January mines
in Goldfeld, has returned from a trip
through the east where he has been
in connection with the Goldfeld and
Tonopah properties.
Mr.. Patrick in a statement con
corning the Goldfeld properties said
that the force of men working in the
Combination mine would be increased
as o as he reached the camp and
that the company would Immediately
begin the erection of a fifty ton mill.
When the mill is completed the ore
viii be extracted and worked as
quickly as possible.
The large mine owner visited the
st. Louis exposition on the day of
the opening and said that the crowd
present on that day was nearly twice
as large as the crowd at the opening
of the Chicago fair. He visited al
the fair for several days and took II
all OF the exhibits that were pre-,
pared, but he said that hardly any o
them we're in shape on the opening
day. He visited the Nevada building
which was the only state building
completed at the time. Mr.. Patricl
gives much praise to Senator Hardin
and Worlds Fair Commissioner JAS
Yerington for the work they hav
accomplished for Nevada at the eX
position He spoke very highly
Nevada's exhibit and says it will be
beauty aud thoroughly advertise tn
state when completed.

Patterson win Resign.

1t is announced that the resigna-
ton of Dir. Patterson as superintend-
ent of the State asylum will be
in the hands of the board. DR.. Pat
terson's appointment has caused
much anguish IN the ranks of the
Democrats, for the doctor was one
of the most courageous gold bugs in
Nevada, and always ~professed to be
a Republican. Undoubtedly in the
frantic scramble to catch a little
harmony, his resignation will come a
a balm to sorely tried politicians.

A WORD ABOUT
GOLD-MOULDED
RECORDS ~ ~
Columbia Moulded Cylinder Records
were the first moulded records on the
market by about year.
They always have been Gold-mould-
ed. \ gold mould is the only economi-
cal and efficient mould known to the
art
Moulded records are superior to the
old engraved records because they
may be made of harder material.
Hard records last longer and have n
better quality of tone.
\ gold-moulded record made of soft
material would be no better in quality
than an engraved record in soft ma
terial.
The best moulded records are not
only Gold-moulded. They are super
hardened
Gold-moulded records are less eX-
pensive than engraved records. The
process is simpler.
Formerly. blank cylinders were
moulded. then shaved, then engraved
from an original. The originals soon
wore out under the reproducing
stylus.
Now. a gold-lined mould is made
from the original, and the product of
that mould i smoothly finished cyl
iHder, with the sound record already
on il. The life of the original is in
creased 10 times, hundred times, 4
n thousand times.
\ record is not more expensive be-
cause it is gold-moulded.
Ii is less expensive.
Columbia Moulded Cylinder Records
are new records. made by a new pro-
cess. They are not only gold-moulded.
They are Super-hardened.
Irrespective of price, they are SUI
perior in quality To any other gold
moulded record on the market. and
they sell for only - cents.

ment of these improved records. max

SIGNS OF DISEASE.
The First Signs Of Disease are Weakness,
Emaciation and Lack Of Vitality.

The first sign of returning health is increase
of flesh, strength and vigor. This weakness
emaciation and lack of vitality simply means
that certain substances, which 90 to make up

CENTRAL AND EASTERN STATES YET
FAST IN ICY GRASP OF WINTER

With two feet of ice On the Missis-
sippi channel, and 30 inches on still
water i'm the sIoughs around here,
there is strong local interest in the
report of James Berry. chief of the
climate and crop division of the
weather bureau. \ perusal of il is
sufficient to convince one that real,
old-fashioned winter still prevails over
this broad land. The report says:
Increased thickness of ice over that
of the previous week is reported from
nearly all districts. Ice in the Mis-
souri, river ranges from 16 inches at
Omaha TO 81 inches at Willistor; in

VIII Survey In the Spring
The survey of the Chicago, Joliet &
Iowa Railway is to be started as soon
as the weather viii permit. Such is
the information received from one
who is in close touch with the promo
tiers of the new line. just what the
intentions of the recently incorporate
ed company are. and what interests
are behind the move, have been puz-
zling questions for the people of this
section of the state to solve.
1t is not thought that the men whose
names appear as incorporators are
the real fathers of the project. They
are known to be holders Of railroad
bonds. and it is believed in well in
formed circles that they represent
some road which is already interested
in this section of the state.
Two solutions of the problem are
meeting with support along the line
of the proposed survey. One names
the Iowa Central and the sponsor of
the new line, while the other claims
the Rock Island as the father of the
move.

MEESE ISHUMBLED
Bends to Will of County commi =
tee to Save His Friend,
Larry MagiII.
PLAN TO THROW THE LATTER
Had the Date of the Senatorial
Convention Been
Changed.

Billy Meese stood pat before the
bluff of the Rock Island county re-
publican central committee yesterday
afternoon in fixing the date of the
county convention after that of the
senatorial convention without even
consulting the members Of the latter
until he saw To longer hold out would
endanger the chances of his side-kick,
Larry Magin. being returned to the
legislature. So he humbled. 1t was n
bitter pill for Bill, but he took it with
the apparent delight Of babe going
against Mellin's food.
Magill was himself present at the
committees meeting in the afternoon.
and when questioned regarding
change of the senatorial convention
date replied that he was agreeable, if
the members of the committee were
but it was his understanding that an
early convention was the unanimous
desire of all three counties in the dis
trict. While Mercer and Henderson
were in the minority. Mr.. Magill stat
ed there was nothing to prevent
majority of the district getting to-
gether and making nomination,
catching Rock Island asleep at the
crossing. However. he did not appre-
bend that the counties mentioned
would play such sharp politics.
He had another suggestion that
had been made to him and he thought
would be valuable to the county COM
mittee. He was the only candidate in
the county for the Legislature, and
why not the county committee select
the delegates to the senatorial con
ventiCn instructed for him or allow
him to pick his own delegation?

Triumph for Moline Club.

The changing of the date of the
senatorial convention is a triumph for
the membership of the Moline Swed-
ish-American club, to defeat whose
plan to bolster up Il Hates-Deneen
sentiment in that city before the
county convention Meese had his com
mittee fix the date of the Aledo gath
ering March 10. the day following the
banquet i'm Moline. thus hoping to
force the Rock Island county commit
tee to call the county convention in
advance of the Moline celebration. y
delegation from the Moline Swedish
club appeared before the county
committee in the morning to plead
for the holding Of the first convention
after the date set for the banquet.
There is some Deneen sentiment in
Moline. but little for Yates. Deneen's
strength is chiefly in the membership
of the Swedish club, and il is thought
it is yet possible by a combinat ton of
the Deneen and Yates forces in Mo-
line to accomplish something. But
the fellows on the other side simply
chuckle in their sleeves. They say it
is all cut and dried. ates bases his
hopes in Rock Island county in the
country districts. His followers. how
ever. are making desperate fight in
this city and say the least they can
dc is to split the delegation. The in
tent of the resolution introduced by
Thomas Campbell yesterday after
noon for cutting the county into five
districts was to serve Yates, but it
viii be ignored. this time at least, as
the recommendation for the change
is made to the county convention.

Nay, nay, quoth Chairman Knox.
Larry was slightly off the track.
There was another who had his OPP
tics turned toward the capital, Rey-
nolds johnson, assistant in the office
of the county clerk. and a resident of
Magill's home city, Moline. Magill,
like the duped woman in the play,
saw it all.
With an acquiescent smile he bowed
himself out and betook himself to a
dark recess of the hostelry for Il
heart to heart with Meese. calling the
latter away from the telephone. over
which he was endeavoring to locate
the Mercer and Henderson county
members of the senatorial committee
and apprise them of the request OF
the county convention here. Larry
saw a plot to throw the hooks into
him. If the senatorial committee fail
ed 10 postpone the convention. the
county committee would appoint the
delegation to said convention. anG
would make sure that il was not one
that would be favorable to him. Ma

ice wore the red haws. johnson. the
understudy of County Clerk II. b.
Hubbard. the latter of whom is a
Yates supporter, would be pushed in
to the place. Thus did Meese lay down
to save his friend. The senatorial
convention will be held at Aledo March
II, instead of March 10.
