FIRST CHRISTMAS
AT RAY CAMP
A Wild Night Long To Be
Remembered
The Entire Population Assemblies To
Make Gay the First Christmas
Festivities in Ray

Christmas eve at Ray camp was
duly observed by the inhabitants
there. The Kunize Bros. mansion
at the junction OF Coyote and Lizard
ghlches was the center of attraction
Guests arrived early, ate, danced
and were and some are still merry
The large double parlors were beau.
tifully decorated with palms and cut
flowers; the coZy dining room. the
library and reception hall were suit
ably decorated for the occasion. The
proceedings started, after the guests
had arrived, rith the invitation for
all to proceed to the library and where
hugh ChriStm tree loaded with
tokens OF esteem was seen and an
nouncempnt made that it was a free
for all when the signal was given.
with the unders tandiug that broad
tackles and half Nelson's were barred
At the word the dust flew, all rules
ignored, and the poor old Christmas
tree IS but a memory. The dining
room was the next objective point
aid here long tables heavily laden
appealed to the delicate appetites of
the husky miners and their fair
partners, and such feast, toasts
were responded to, speeches made
and faces shown with tar soap. hap
piness, etc, principally etc. From
cozy corner the Ray orchestra.
composed entirely of wind instru.
ments, entranced the gathering with
choice selections. Ray is proud Of its
orchestra and justly so, even if it is
all wind. After the banquet the
rooms were cleared and dancing com
menced by Bud leading in the grand
march with his fance, Miss Lillian
Paddlestock, the belle of the evening.
She was becomiugly gowned in a red
bombazine with fetching yellow
gored trimming, which perfectly
harmonized with her auburn hair.
Sixty couples participated in the
dance and stayed the limit. The
orchestra played Home. Sweet
Home, good byes followed and the
bleak hillside echoed back the Christ
mas greetings, strong lungs shouted.
while the timid coyote skunk away
with hunger in his stomach and ter
ror in his heart for the curves of
such a Christmas in Ray camp were
new to him and hard to catch on and
hold. 1t certainly was a great time.

Promiscnoms Shootinr.

During the celebration attendant
on the passing of the Old year and
the coming Of the New, there was an
unusual amount OF promiscuous
pistol shooting on the streets. Per
haps it was all innocent enough, but
there We're two instances borderin
on malicious shooting. One instance
was where two successive shots were
fired into the house of Ross Meder.
and another where two shots also
were fired into the house of William
O'Neil. A child lying in bed was
almost hit by one of the bullets.
while one or two threw up the dust
immediately in front of Mr.. ONeil
who stood at his front door. The
shooting may have been innocent
enough, but the guilty parties should
at least be severely reprimanded.

TONOPAH WEEPS
WITH RENO
Reno Infected With MOngrelS
From TOnOpah
Persons Who Cannot Exist By Their
Mental Faculties Leave For
Reno to Whine and Cry

The bustling and progressive town
OF Reno has of late been suffering
feom pestience Of human parasite
They have blown into that good town
like the grasshoppers into Kansas.
or the fleas into Egypt. We blush
to admit that some of those microbes
generated on the offal dumps lust
outside of Tonopah. Some of them
lived here for year or so, but being
unable to make living in this COM
munity have gone to i'll fated Reno
there to germinate and thrive on the
foul excrescences Of their own words.
Like all virulent bacilli they are COM
mendably industrious in circulating
vile, untruthful and scurrilous re-.
ports of the Tonopah mines. Believ-
ing that the world owes them liv-
ing and that Tonopah in particular
should have discharged that obliga-
tion; but finding that the camp would
not tolerate such funge, they seek to
retalate by crying from the house
tops that having tried to live here
they forsooth must know the true
inwardness of statistics. Their plati-
tudes are principally that "Tonopah
is no good; that its population is half
what it was six months ago; that the
Mizpah vein is barren in its lower
levels; that one quarter only of the
Montana Tonopah ore pays to ship.
and even that percentage has to be
carefully sorted; that the general
manager of the Tonopah Mining com.
pany has resigned because discour-
aged with the mining prospects. and
that Mizpah stock, if sold on its
merits, would bring only 80 cents.
Such nauseating and contamina ting
efiiuvia should not be allowed to live
in any community; but yet. if they
must needs live, they are only quail
lied to practice obstetrics in livery
stable. We commiserate with Reno.

A TUESDAY NIGHT BLAZE.
Three buildings Destroyed on
Florence Avenue,

Tuesday night at IL o'clock a fire
was discovered in Miller's bakery on
Florence avenue. Before the alarm
could be given aud the departmen t
responded, the bakery was practi-
cally in ruins. The flames quickly
spread to two adjoining small frame
residences, which in a few minutes
were in ashes. The contents OF the
buildings were also a total loss. The
aggregate loss is estimated at $500
A small stream of water was got
on before the third building burned
and by playing the stream on the
residence next south it was the
means Of saving it from the flames.
This is Tonopah's first fire aud had
the wind been blowing from the
south the whole town would now be
in ashes. The fire laddies did ex
cellent work and deserve credit.
This fire is an object lesson to our
citizens and incorporation OF the city
is the only means by which a fire
main will ever be laid on Main street.
and fire hydrants put in every hun
dred feet along the principal thor
oughfare.

Strike in the Great Western.

While doing assessment work on

mile and a half west of the Grand
Trunk, a four foot ledge of quartz
was cut through. The Great West.
ern is one of the so called desert
claims owned by e. B. and A. L.

there will be boom in that section

Failing in Health.

The Rev, H. e. Burnett, of the
First Presbyterian church, has been
gradually falling in health during the
past month. The affection seems to
come as the result of oyerstudy and
worry. Friends are endeavoring to
raise funds in order to have him sent
to California where, it is hoped, rest
and quiet will estore him to health.
