WONDERFULLY Y
RICH GOLD
ORE.

Charles Cirac was up from
Saltwater the fore part of the
week. With him he brought
some gold ore that was taken
out of his mine in Cox's canyon,
about twenty miles from Still
water. The specimens were the
finest ever seen in this county
and will assay way up in the
thousands. The display of the
rock created a great deal of ex-
element and MIR. Cirac believes
that he has at last struck a led
ge that will put him on Easy
street. He has many friends
who will hope that his untiring
energy and patience are to be
rewarded.
1t has often been predicted
that the mountains surrounding
saltwater contained vast depoS-
its OF minerals and it NAV be
that one of them has been un-
covered. The country is similar
to the Tonopan and Goldield
sect.on and has attracted the
attention of prospectors for
many years. The scarcity OF
of water and wood, in most To-
calities, has worked an ex xtreme
hardship on fortune seekers.
Near the Cirac find, however,
there is an abundance of both
water and wood and there is
talk OF at once erecting a five
stamp mill in the canyon near
the mine.
There is every opportunity for
capital in those hills and fortun-
es surely await those who will
invest enough money for devel-
opment purposes.

POKER GAME
WINDS UP
IN ROW

A poker game that had been
running for several hours in the
New River saloon came to an
abrupt termination yesterday
morning about $50 o'clock
when Tim Shea, a bartender
employed at the Club saloon,
tried to beat six full with a 40
calibre Colts revolver.
Shea and several. Others were
in the game at the time, includ-
ing Vim. Burns, a canal laborer.
When the trouble occurred Shea s
money was all in the pot and
Burns was his opponent. The
hands were shown down and
Burns held the winning cards.
Enraged at his loss, Shea pulled
q gun and demanded of Burns
to hand over every dollar in
front of him, adding that he
would take hand in the
game" 3" Burns, instead of obey
ing, grabbed for the coin and
Shea beat him over the fingers
with the pistol, which was at
full cock. Shea also made a
grab for the coin and succeeded
in landing something over TWEEN
ty dollars. A tussle then en-
sued, Burns erdeavoring to dis
arm the aggravated gambler.
As Burns thrust the pistol to
one side the gun was discharged, ,
the bullet passing dangerously
close to Burns body. A mix
up followed and quite a crowd
was attracted to the scene of
the trouble. 1t was sometime
before the gun could be taken
from Shea and for a while it
looked as though somebody
would get hurt.
Officers Shirley and Coats ar
rived before any great damage
was done and succeeded in dis
arming Shea and arresting him
A charge of assault with intent
to commit murder was lodged
against him.
