THE WEEKS MINING
FROM ALL PARTS
The North Star Company Wins It's Case--- Golden
Gate to Resume Work.


mine which has tied up this property
for several months, was settled on
Monday last in favor of the company.
Judge Hawley of the u. S. Court at
Carson City decided that the location
of the Tonopah claim was prior to
the location made by d. Lewis on
which Porter based his adverse suit,
thus giving the North Star Mining
company clean title to all their
ground and the application for pat.
ent will now be carried through to
completion. Immediately on receipt
OF the news in Tonopah, orders were
given to put as many men to work as
possible developing this great prop
erty and on the various exchanges
there was rapid rise in the price Of
the stock, which nearly doubled in
value.
The Sandstone.
The recent discovery on the Sand
storm lease Of LOTUS, Davis and
Mayne promises to be the most re
markable Of all in that wonderful
camp. The vein is fifteen feet wide
OF good milling grade with two streaks
from which the following remarkable
assays have been obtained. $3406,
$500, $52, ,564 and $l5, SAG per ton, the
gold being very coarse. The first
leasers left on the dump nearly 200
tons Of rock which assays about $400
per ton aud which they had never
tested for gold, and at the bottom
Of their old shaft are four feet Of ore
assaying from 5000 to $500 per ton.
LOTUS, Davis and Mayne secured a
big block Of stock in the Sandstorm
company before giving out news Of
the strike and when known the stock
jumped from lSc to 35c.
Silver Peak.
Byron Shear, manager of the Mo.
hawk Alpine, who returned from the
east this week and at once proceeded
TO the mine, states that it is develop
ing IN most satisfactory manner,
and large tonnage of high grade
milling ore is being blocked out. The
construction OF the mill progresses
slowly owing to the delay in the ar
rival Of the machinery by rail The
five stamp mill at the Mary mine
which is ON the same vein has Just
completed crushing Of 300 tons
which yielded SIS, 900 or 500 per ton.
Tonopah Extension.
Although there is nothing extraor-
dinary to chronicle in this weeks
work IN this mine its increasing out
put and the satisfactory develop
nents of its enormous ore bodies
stamp it as one Of the greatest, il not
the greatest mine in this camp. The
recent workings show that the mine
lies outside Of the great faulted zone
of this camp aud its veins are most
regular, dipping with the bedding
planes OF the formation and indicat-
ing permanenee at great depth.
TOnOpah Gold Mountain.
Rapid progress is being made in
both east and west tunnels and also
IN the drift on the new vein cut in the
east tunnel, and high grade milling
ore is being extracted which win be
crushed at the leasers mill. Another
shipmont Of high grade ore will be
made shortly.

The January.

I A most important strike in this
mine at Goldfield was made last week
In the south drift on the 1876 foot
level new vein was cut, running
northwest and southeast into the
February claim. 1t is over nine feet
wide, assaying from $4O0 to $1,000
per ton, and ore from this is now be-
ing sacked and shipped. The milling
ore on the dumps Of this lease is esti-
mated at II 900 tons worth $35 per
ton, while the tonnage in sight in the
mine IS so great that it is impossible
for the leasers to extract the ore be-
lore the lease expires in January.

MACHINE A SUCCESS

Saturday afternoon the Wayne
Works automobile was completed and
made its maiden trip. While it was
only out for a short time. it was evi-
dent that the machine was a success
in every way and the officials of the
company were very much pleased
with its run. The company has been
working on this automobile since last
summer, when the plans were first
drawn and the machinery was first
planned. The new car works smooth
ly in every possible way, and, while,
of course, there will have to be sew
eral minor improvements and
changes, yet the car proved that 1t
was all O. K to those who witnessed
its trial trip. The new car will be a
rather heavier one than otherwise,
and, above all else, will be made for
steady work, being neither an enor-
nous, unwieldy touring car nor yet a
light runabout It will have a de-
tachable tonneau and all the other
more modern improvements. 1t IS not
known definitely yet just what horse
power it will register.
Since this is only the first machine
and all the parts have taken good
while to make, it is not probable that
the ragalar manufacture of these viii
be 1ogun before this summer or fall,
although nothing is certain about the
exact time of the beginning of their
manufacture.

OLD NANNY PLEASANT

In little graveyard down In Naapa,
California, have just been laid to rest
the remains Of the most remarkable
colored woman in California, if not in
the United States" Nanny Pleas

Francisco, of old age, her demise
brings to memory many sensational

~, notably John Brown s Harper's
Ferry raid To NANNY Pleasant
is given the credit of backing that
historic movement, and to the day of
her death its tragic outcome weighed
heavily upon her. But it was her
connection with affairs involving
many of California S wealthiest peo-
pie that she gained her later and
greater renown.
Born ninety years ago, she married
wealthy Cuban IN her early 20's.
Her husband died and left her a
comfortable fortune. Soon after his
death she became acquainted with
Garrison, Phillips and other noted
abolitionists and through them be-
came interested in the anti-slavery
movement. In 1S4S she went to Cal
ifornia where she married John
Pleasant.
Arriving at San Francisco she
opened what afterwards became the
most fashionable boarding house IN

such men as the late Senator Sharon
and other pioneer millionaires. In
1858 she retugned to the east and met
John Brown. She supplied him with
100000 with which to organize and
carry out the raid, but after its fail
ure she returned to California.
When Sarah Althea Hill began her
famous suit against Senator Sharon,
Nanny Pleasant was her prin-
cipal adviser. She welded a myster-
ious influence not only over the Hill
woman, but over others of equal
prominence, including number of
millionaires. Tt was said of her that
she was the guardian of more family
skeletons than any person in Cali
fornia. Recently she was offered
$4,000 if she would subscribe to
certain facts concerning a prominent
San Francisco man, but she declin-
ed with the remark that she never
needed money badly enough to be-
tray friend Nanny Pleasant
left an estate valued at 100000 to
two friends who had taken care Of
her during her declining years.

THAT BUILDING
The Kind of a Structure it Ought
To Be.

To the Editor Of the Palladium:
While the question Of pavilion
in the Glen is being agitated, the
question of method and material of
construction should be well consider
ed. The tendency SO far seems to be
to plan as cheap structure as can
be built This seems a great mis-
take. A cheap wooden structure will
be detriment to the park and a
credit to nobody concerned. 1t will
only last a few yaers and will be a
continued expense to maintain and
keep in decent condition, and will
be at the mercy of fire from any pas
sing tramp or loiterer in the winter
time.
In view of the great awakening Of
the country to the matter of safety
from fire of all buildings intended
for public gatherings, Richmond can
not afford to take step backward.
What we should plan is an np-to-date
structure of concrete, steel beams
and posts with roof of red Spanish
tiles. This would give lis a building
modern, substantial, and an orna-
ment to the park and credit to the
city; one of which we would never be
ashamed, when showing to our visit
ors, and one which will last foi
years with little expense for main
tainance.

SAYS PROF. ELBERT RUSSELL,
OF EARLHAM COL
LEGE
THAN RESORT TO ARMS
Fine Lecture Delivered at Friends
Church at Indianapolis Last
Night.

Prof. Ebert Russell. Of Earlham
college, delivered the first of a series
Of lectures in Friends church at In
dianapolis yesterday. His subject
was peace as Related to the Chris
tian Character"
Prof. Russell said that while he
realized the horrors of war, yet if it
were the only way to overcome evil
he should believe in it. "But, said
the speaker, ''I do not believe it is
the only way The very sense of
Christian ideal and method provides
a better way to eradicate it. Jesus
Christ believed in eradicating evil
by spiritual force, and those spiritual
forces won the world through the
cross"
The speaker thought that all war
could be averted by the Intervention
of spiritual force He said that while
the civil war did away with slavery,
which was a great thing, yet, if
some time before the outbreak of the
war the spiritual force had been used
the slaves would have been given
their freedom, and the differences be
tween the north and south would
have been settled for all time, where
as they now remain unsettled.
In speaking of the late Spanish
American war, Prof. Russell said
that if we had had Christian re-
gard for the welfare Of Cuba our
government would have called for
missionaries twenty years ago and
sent half Of them to Spain and the
other half to Cuba to teach Chris
tianity. By this method the speaker
thought the war could have been
averted and Cuba would then have
been self-governing and self-sustain-
ing.
Prof. Russell closed his address by
saying that as long as we depend on
jails, penitentiaries, policemen and
sheriffs we go our way in peace, feel
ing that if a thief gets into the
house he will be arrested and sent to
the penitentiary. 'But the thing we
should do" said the speaker, fFis to
teach Christianity so that there will
be no thieves and no need of the
Jail or penitentiary.

PERFECTED HERE
YESTERDAY
A Most Profitable Meeting Held in
First Baptist Church-Rev.
Halpenny Present.

The union meeting of the local
Sunday-schools at the First Baptist
church yesterday afternoon was very
well attended, between 250 and 300
active Sunday-school workers being
present. The organization Of city
Sunday-schools was perfected and
the following officers chosen:
President-E. j. Humpe.
Vice-President- r. Lyons.
Secretary f. Haisley.
Treasurer j. Dickinson.
These officers, together with one
representative from each Sunday
school in the city, will form the ex-
ecutive board. Richmond will prob
ably be divided into a number of
districts, each with it's head and
board of officers and these will be
under the head officers of the city.
Rev. Halpenny, the state superin-
tendent of the Sunday-school asso
citation was present and gave high
" interesting and instructive talk.
His subject was "City Organiza-
ton and he gave several statistics
proving the value Of such organiza-
ton. Out of 100000 young men
in the United States 95 per cent are
not members of any church or Sun
day-school, and only ) per cent. Of
this number are active members. Out
Of this large number % per cent. at
tend Sunday-school merely and 75
with any church or Sunday-school
whatsoever. Tn the Michigan state
penitentiary out of the 1000 convicts
only thirty had been identified in any
way with church work, and go had
never had the advantage of the good
influence of the church. Mr.. Hal
penny stated this as an example of
what the young men Nigh become
that were not connected with any
church. Another thing that Rev.
Halpenny spoke Of was the way in
which the country people find the
churches. In the rural districts
church organization is very highly
perfected, and, when the country
people come to live In the town, they
find no organization of such a kind,
and gradually fall away from the
church entirely. Several other facts
were given to prove that city Sun
day-sehool organization was an ex-
ceedingly benefcient thing, and that
such an organization should be in
every city and town throughout the
United States. Several of his facts
were startling and brought people
face to face with the need of or
eanization in the Sunday-schools of
the cities
The talk was Of such a nature as
TO make persons think of the state
Sunday-schools are IN, and after such
talk the hearers will look on the
churches an a very different light.
