EUREKA COUNTY's IRON MINE.
$50 Tons Of Iron Being Shipped Daily
to Salt Lake Smelter.

There are now fourteen men working
at the iron mine nea Gerald, six miles
west of Palisade, and it is estimated
that an average of $50 IONS of iron are
being shipped daily to the American
Smelling Company at Salt Lake City,
where the ore is used for fiuxing pur-
poses.
This Eureka County property was
sold several months ago by J. A. Fer
raro of Palisade, to the Southern Pacific
and the Eureka g. Palisade agent, to
the West Mining Company of Salt
Lake. For the quarter ending Decem-
Der 81. 1904. the West Mining Company
paid into Eureka County as a tax on the
net product of its Gerald iron mines
s199. 20. and $179.s0 for the quarter end
ing March 81. 1904. This is conclusive
evidence that the net yield for those
six months was sl5, 500. 2S.
The mine is ON the south side of the
Humboldt river, at the mouth of a al
yon leading to Stafford. 1t consists of a
hill which seems to be composed en-
tirely of iron. carrying very little or no
value in silver or gold. and the ore
makes a fine fiux. To facilitate the
tran sportation of this ore to the smelter
the Southern Pacific Company put in
q short spur of railroad from the main
track at Gerald to the mine. The work
at the mine is under the management
of Ralph Watson.

Want q Bond Issue.

County Commissioners Rice and
Rogers are in Tonopah discussing with
the taxpayers a proposition to bond
Nye County for $14, 900, the money to be
used to meet all warrants to be drawn
on the several funds, all of which are
about defunct. There is considerable
opposition to the proposed bond issue,
many claiming had the county seat
been moved to Tonopah that the sew
eral different funds would now be in a
healthy condition. Under the new law
no warrant a be issued unless there is
money in the fund upon which it is
drawn to pay the same.-Tonopah

Grandelmeyer's Arrangement.

Colonel Joseph Grandelmeyer in a
communication to the Virginia Report,
has this to say of the Nevada mining
industry J: "Had silver never been de.
monetized by a Republican Congress.
the grand old Comstock would be work.
ing 5000 instead of 500 men to-day and
10000 would now be employed in that
industry throughout the State. And
right here let me remark that all who
vote the Republican ticket on the pre-
tense that they are in favor Of the res.
toration of silver to its former parity of
10 to l with gold, are ~hypocrites and
false as Benedict Arnold. While the
leaders of that party are bowling about
prosperity where does the poor miner
get off p"

tached to the left hind leg at the knee.
From this joint the two legs instead of
growing down to the ground turn back

weigh between SOOand 900 pounds. They
are beauties and were much admired

LOUIS JANIN. JR., INSANE.
Well Known Western Mining Ex-
pert Loses His Mind at TonOpah.

pert Loses His Mind at Tonopah.
Louis Janin, Jr., q mining man well
known on the Pacific Coast, who was
formerly editor of the Pacific Coast
Miner, but who has been residing in To
nopah for the past six months, became
insane in Tonopah last week and was
taken to San Francisco for medical
treatment. Recently his wife obtained
a divorce from him, and brooding over
the separation undermined his reason.
Many pathetic incidents occurred dur
ing the trip to Sodaville. Several
times he called to the stage driver to
stop and each time he would imagine
he was assisting his wife to q seat be-
side him. His disordered mind pictured
her there and he continually called her
by name.-Virginia Enterprise.
Mr.. Janin is well known in Eastern
Nevada, where he established q reputa-
ton not only as a mining expert but
also as a pugilist. In the Spring of
1902 he was employed by the chairman
Mining Company to make an expert ex.
animation Of the company's properties
at Ely, White Pine County, and re-
port to the company in the East.
While engaged in the work Mr.. Jauin
suspected hat his mail, including his
letters and reports to the Eastern share
holders, was being tempered with. and
accused the bookkeeper for the Chain
man Mining Company. He was in
vited to Janin's room one day and a
war of words led to blows, which termi-
mated in the bookkeeper coming out the
worst of the fight. Janin left Ely i'm
