DOING GOOD WORK.
Col. P. {. Weber Booming White
Pine County in New York.

A letter received from Col.
Weber last Tuesday morning,
dated from New York, states
that he is meeting with great
encouragement in his efforts to
induce Eastern capitsE8o invest
in the mining propositions ad-
jacent to Ely. It is the hope of
all that his work will bring the
good results our locality is en-
titled to, and when once the un-
developed mines in this district
are thoroughly and systemati-
cally opened up, then capital
will awake to the fact the White
Pine county offers the best in
ducements for Investments in
legitimate mining properties.
To Ely such an event means
the rapid development of our
little town, and one and all, re-
gardless of bias or opinions,
should pull together and wish
the Col. success in his work to
bring the capital here to opon up
our undeveloped mines. Every
dollar brought into this locality
benefits each one, directly or in
directly, and it depends on the
community to pull together as
one and talk for our mines. We
have the metal here, and capital
is bound to find it out.

AT CAMP BERRY.
Spending the Hot Days on the
Banks Of Berry Creek.


the cottonwoods that line the
banks of Berry Creek, the editor
and his better half spent a week
away from the cares of business
and town life. Piled into a big
wagon with Will Peters and his
family and Florence Weber, the
long drive was made without
mishap. Arriving at the grove
the stentorian voice of J. B.
Simpson gave US hearty greet
ing. His party numbered ten,
comprising his family and the
Misses Hannah Smith and Susie
Scott.
A few days later the popula.
ton of the camp was swelled by
the arrival of Walter Rynearsoh
wife and daughter, and Mrs.
John Weber and son, making a
lively little camp of twenty two
men, women and children.
The women folks kept the
camp supplied with trout, while
the men chased the elusive sage
hen, cotton-tail and other small
game that gave an appetizing
to a "mulligan.'
Tom O'Neil and Harry Allison
we're camped short distance
above the main camp. Tom
got his partner pretty we'll
worked up one night talking
about mountain lions, but Harry
said ne wasn't afraid. However,
the report got out that he sat up
in the buggy all night.
The first days hunt for sage
hens was a corker. There was
not one in the crowd that could
hit the side of a barn. ONeil
shot eight times without lifting
feather, and then got mad at
his gun. Every time Peters
made Il miss he took a shot at
bottle of cold tea he had with
him, but he missed so often the
tea soon gave out. Simpson
couldn't understand why he
made so many misses, and com
menced to tell the crowd how he
used to shoot. A cigar from the
editors favorite brand closed
his mouth for the time being.
We had the pleasure of firing
one shot and getting one bird.
We ask you not to believe any
stories the crowd may tell you
concerning our Workmanship.
But it was a jolly crowd, and
we are glad we went, but awful
sorry we had to come home.

CHERRY CREEKS LOSS.
Five Dwelling Houses Go Up in
Smoke at That Place.

dent of the News sends us the
following account of the fire
| which occurred there last Thurs
day afternoon:
On Thursday afternoon, about
II o'clock, the cry of fire rang
out--not an unfamiliar call, but
it strikes terror into the hearts
of our. property owners, and
everybody ran to the cloud Of
smoke, which was q true indi-
Gator. Andy Olson s house was
the victim. Willing hands did
everything in their power to ex-
tinguish it. but gale of wind
was blowing from the southwest,
and house after house was licked
up by the fire fiend, until sixty
feet of space and a number Of
faithful men pouring water on
the walls saved the new resi-
dence of Supt. 7. G. Davis, al
though the furniture, even to
the carpets. was removed for
safety.
The residences of Andy Olson,
Chas. Phalan, Fred Hagan, Mrs.
Patrick Greene and Geo. z.
Parker were utterly destroyed,
but in most cases the ma jority Of
furniture was saved.
Some cabins were burned in
the north end of town from the
sparks, but for faithful watch
men at every residence, who ex-
tinguished the embryo fires, the
calamity would have been hun
dred fold greater.
Andy Olson reports having
lost by the fire, in his cellar in
the rear of his residence, 1000
in cash and $1,000 worth of
goods. Mrs. Olson was visiting
at the time and was saved the
painful scene of seeing her home
burned to ashes. Mr.. Olson had
started a fire to cook a dinner,
when he left the house for other
purposes, and those carly at the
fire state that the stove fire door
had opened, and the fire falling
therefrom had set the floor on
fire.
While sorrowful hearts regret
the loss to the victims of the fire,
there is much Joy that the whole
north end Of town has not gone
up in smoke, as at one time
seemed imminent.
Many cases might be men
toned where great bravery was
displayed, but both women and
men did their utmost.
The report circulateVthat so
pound of giant powder and g. box
of caps was in Hagan's cellar,
had rather chilling effect on
the nerves, but the writer saw
the fame from the powder, and
shortly afterwards the caps ex-
ploded. so the people were re-
lieved. The explosion of that
powder would have had fearful
consciousness on the crowd of
people.
This is a free, wide-open town.
Everybody has the right to have
a box Of giant powder and caps
in his cellar. Everybody has the
right to start a fire in ram
shackle stove in a gale of wind,
and then leave the house. We
thought our officers had the
right to arrest criminals and
commit them to the county jail
to await trial, but it seems we
were-mistaken.
Let us hope wrongs will be
righted, and experience, severe
as the past has been, must teach
our people lesson.

Condensed MILK Lacks vater.

Steam emanating from boiling milk
if condensed would become water.
This may be seen in the manufacture
of condensed milk, which is only ordl-
nary milk boiled down until the water
is out of it, If liquid which contains
solid bodies in solution be evaporated,
the solids are left behind. That this
is so may be shown by adding to wa

Men Who Triple.

/ am sure you must often congratu-
late yourself, as | do myself, that you
are not like men who seem to surfer
from perpetual thirst and cannot even
sit through a three act play without
going out for a drink. l was reading a
mans novel the other day. and in ev-
cry few pages there was something
about drinks. l wonder how many
times a day an average man of fashion
has drink To judge from the book
in question. at least twice between
breakfast and luncheon. two or three
times between luncheon and dinner
and after dinner up to somewhere in
the small hours at very short intervals.
How ruinous this must be to the con-
stitution! How dulling to the brain.
And what a fine specific for shortening
life! But it is the fashion, and men are
slaves of fashion quite as much as wo-
men are; in matters of eating and
drinking even more so.-London Truth.

MaIaN Poetry.

The Malays possess poetical ma
ture and. like the Japanese. regard the
writing of poetry as an art to be as
pired to by anybody. Short couplets
are their delight. especially those with
a little moral attached. One founded
on the weather tends to comfort per
son who has been badly treated: Now
it is wet now it is fine. A day wiz
come for retaKation." Then. again, OF
lovers they say. 'As the owl signs

Edwin James was one of the most
brilliant English lawyers of his day.
but he was always in financial difficult
ties. At one time he lived in some west
end chambers the landlord of which
could never obtain rent. At last he had
recourse to an eXpedient which he
hoped would rouse his tenant to a
sense of his obligations. He asked him
if he would be kind enough to advise
him on little legal matter in which he
was concerned and on James asquies-
cling drew up a statement specifying
his own grievance against the learnef
counsel and asked him to state what
he considered the best course for
landlord to take under such conditions.
The paper was returned to the land

ing sentence subjoined:
In my opinion, this is "a case which ad-

In former times the Danes used to
sail up the mouths of the English riv-
ers to pillage the churches. When they
were caught they were skinned and
their skins nailed to the door of the
church they attacked. In course of
time all the exposed portion would peel
off but that covered by the nail would
be protected and thus bear testimony
to the cruelty of the ancient English
men In the London College of Sur
geons may be seen three specimens Of
human skin bearing labels such as
this: Portion of human skin said to be
that of Dane from the door of a
church at Hadstock, in Essex" A sec
ond specimen is from Copford. in Els
sex, and a third from the north door of
Worcester cathedral. Such fragments
of sacrilegious Danish hide have been
found on doors in Westminster abbey.

Finally CapituIates.


Finally CapituIates.
You will not find everything in south
ern California. You will miss the wide
stretches of green in the open places,
far removed from the dusty cities. the
noble trees. the clear streams OF wa
ter. the blue lake nestled in among the
pine clad mountains. You will miss
that splendid miracle the change Of
the seasons. when your whole nature
comes into closer touch with the great
mother heart of nature than at any
other time in all the year.
You will miss much. But when you
have been here a year, when month
after month of rare and beautiful
weather blend into each other, when
the sea wooes you and the flowers charm
You and the brown mountains beckon
you and the soft air soothes yon after
a year has passed you find there are
some compensations for the lovely
things you have left behind you. You
come to realize that nature has done
more for this stretch of sea and noun
tain girt land than she has done for
any other spot on the globe.
You may have been charmed with
California when you came, you may
have been captivated after you had
been here a year. you may capitulate
and consent to be captured by the
