 Experience.

The south part of Mohave county appears to be creating considerable interest in mining way. In that sec tion there are many large veins of cop per and gold bearing ores that better transportation facilities would make very valuable. At the present time it is practically impossible to ship ores from that country to market unless they are very rich. No ores running lower than 1OOS per ton will net the shipper anything above freight and treatment charges. &I N..3'

Many people are of the opinion that an alien cannot hold a mineral claim. Now, the fact is that no one can set up an adverse claim to property held under location by an alien except the government itself. In quieting title to property between an alien and a citizen it cannot be pleaded that the alien can not make a valid location under the laws of the land, as that is a question that the government alone can set up.

Some rich ore is being taken from the mines of the Gold Road country. Samples of ore running as high as 2,OoOS to the ton were received in King man this week. We have not been able to learn the name of the property from which the ore came.
Mohave County miner., 1904-02-13

The recent strike of ore in the Gro Plata mine continues to improve with work and it is now thought it will be the most important find made in that property. In this part of the mine years ago very rich ore was found, but the richer gold zone was thought to be the most promising and all leasers worked there to the exclusion of this part of the property.

We understand that William P. Byrne has made an important strike on the mines owned by Chris Thomp- son, near Sherum's Peak. The new ore carries splendid values in gold and silver.

An effort is being made to boom the mines in the Mount New berry, or Dead Mountain, country. In that region there are many veins carrying good values in gold, but the region is one of the toughest and most inaccessible in Nevada

The Minnesota X Arizona mining com pany i- working few men on the old Eldorado mine, in Gold Basin, and is opening up good body of gold ore. The mill has been saving large per centage of the values contained in the ores.

Tuesday last the Gold Road shipped 2O,OOOS bar of bullion to the mint by way of Needles. This brings the ship ments of bullion up to 42,OO0S in the past thirteen days. At this rate of production the mines is fast becoming a world beater. With the addition of labor saving devices this mill will be one of the largest producers of gold on the coast. It is presumed that the management has decided to put in electrical transmission lines from the railroad to operate the mines and mill and at the same time make many im. portant changes in the reduction and handling of ores.

O. F. Kuencer, one of the best known mining engineers on the coast, came in from the San Francisco district Wednesday evening.

A number of mining com panies are now "perating along Bill Williams Fork and many more are contem plat ing going in there. That whole section is vast store house of mineral and when the railroad is built in there property values will go up with a bound. Mining operators should get in now and take advantage of the bar. gains that now can be obtained. The building of the big dam at Parker will give the country cheap power for the operation of mines and reduction plants.

THE ENGAGEn GIRL.

Mas, O'Rell, Don't write TO him senti-
mental letters, for he may keep them,
SHOW them or carelessly leave them
open about his room. Tell him how
YOU feel toward him, but never write
1t down. Don't drag bis name in every
sentence which you utter. Don't play
constantly With your engagement ring
or display 1t unduly. Don't assume n
superior air or snub girls who are not
in the same bllssful state as you are.
Remember that you are not the only
girl in The world who has been en-
gagged. 1t is nothing to boast of. There
are many women who are sorry that
they were once engaged. You may be
one Of these. No; don't boast about
your engagement You may as well
boast that you are a good sailor while
the boat Is under a serene sky and on
smooth sea. Wait till the sea gets
rough. Then, and then only, will you
know whether you are good sailor or

married life. Don't make your lover

your actions, for be 10 but human and

lavish your attention on him TO the ex-
emsion OF all other ties, Don't exhaust

Yesterday evening, MS the shadows
had begun to lengthen and indicate
the close Of another day, woman,
driving prancing steed hitched to 4
rubber-tired buggy, came to our office.
81 am Mrs. j. b. Snodgrass,' she said,
'and ! notice that you said in your
paper that 1 was posing as a clair
voyant," Don't remember just what
was said" we replied. Picking up the
paper, the woman of fast Aorses and
pretty hounds pointed out the article
that had made her angry. We had to
own up to the corn. II want you to
understand that my husband is a
drummer running out Of Wichita. He
supports me, and l do not have to be
n clairvoyant to earn a living. The
Chanute papers have lied about me
repeatedly, I have ridden astride all
my life and l intend to do so in the
future. As for my hounds, will say
that I have had as many as fifteen
at one time, and, Furthermore, l race
them, and l also race horses, l am

No efforts are spared in the Father
land to bring school hygiene to a high
standard of perfection, says the Lon
don Mail. Every board school is pro-
vided with well-equipped gymnas-
ium and a "brausebad' or douche. The
latter is situated in the lower portion
Of the building, and during the winter
the heating apparatus for the school
supplies also the necessary water for
the douche baths.
In summer the water is heated by
a gas stove containing several Bunsen
burners. By the latter method the
baths are ready for use in half an hour.
Just as the times Of instruction are
fixed, so are the hours for gymnastic
exercises and douche baths. The
elder children receive three or four
hours Of physical training per week,
and every child at least one douehe.

not asleep. A new water line is the
latest improvement. Bellevllle IS now
ready to receive congratulations on
this added improvement Think Of the
difference between drinking pure,

or stale clstern water; think OF the
difference between having the water
always at hand, ready to come forth
at turn Of the spigot, and walking a
block or two, to wearaOut your neigh
boris pump; think of the difference be-
tween having your wife lay awake
at night in order that she may rout you
out at two minutes past o'clock on
Monday morning to carry wash water
from, your peighbor's pump, and the
pleasure Of snoozing on until daylight
while your thrifty better half let's the
water run into those once hated tubs;
think Of the pleasure It gives you to
know that your town is rapidly NOV
