Advice to ~Prospect0rs.

4 writer in the Eureka Seminal says:
Good advice to those who contemplate
going into Southern Nevada is to go to
Goldtield, or one of the other newly eS-
tablished camps, and there outfit, and
prospect i'll Il e region in which no
discoveries have yet been made; for i'll
the vicinity OF the now well-known
camps, like Tonopah, Goldfield and Graz
ter, the country has been solidly staked
for miles, and it is almost useless to
hope to find IA vacant piece of ground
where there is the slightest prospect of
value being discovered. 1t is in the ex-
tension of these fields to the northwest
and southeast-and for that matter in
any ~direction-that the opportunity for
the p%rospectOr now lies.

AMONG THE nO2MONS.
Salt Lake Tribune Tells of Coldfield's
Lucky LesseeS.

With Nevada's latest and biggest
camp of gold his destination, j. 7.
Sweeny, lessee of the Florence mine at
Goldfield, came in from Cripple Creek,
Colo, yesterday and is now at the
knutsford. Awaiting the arrival of the
fortunate lessee of the Florence was a
check for over 81, 600, this in payment
for 40 tons of ore that was marketed in
his behalf by the Taylor X Brunton
sampler, and which lot will be followed
by another in Il short time. 1t Is to MIR.
Sweeney that the camp is indebted for
the discovery of ore on the Florence.
While he has many interests at Cripple
Creek. and thinks none the less of it, he
sees a more bewildering future for the
new camp upon which he has staked
his destiny, and believes it will ulti-
mately become the most productive in
the history of gold mining.
Another in the bunch from Goldfield
to rally in the Knutsford lobby during
the day. was Nate Mansfield, a former
manager of the Snluggler- Union mines
at Telluride, Colo, and while he has
been present at some big clean-ups in
that camp he is relying on bigger ones
in Nevada. In Goldiield he has acquired
a foothold that promises him a fortune,
nor did he stammer when he proclaimed
it the greatest camp on earth
Zeb Kendall, who was one OF the first
to enter the arena wei there, is back
from Springville, where he partook of
the turkey and gave thanks under the
parental roof, and will today leave tor
the West to draw on his acquisitions
that have responded so freely from the
first, for another fortune before the
close of the present year. To no one is
Nevada indebted to a greater extent for
the big gold boom it is now experiencing
than is it to the boy from Utah. 1t was
Mr.. Kendall and his associates who
made the original discovery on the jan
uary mine that has since become so
productive, and whose performances
have beer among the most sensational
in the story of the marvellous camp Of
gold. Meantime, he has acquired other
territory in the camp and promises to
come forth many times a millionaire

Of the new Bishop-Goldfield toll road, it
having been completed up as far as the

Raleigh Lady Says They arc Found

Raleigh lady, and she is one of
the best housekeepers in the city, says
the best bread people in North Caro-
lima are found in Raleigh She has
been all over the country but she has
never found anything to equal the
Washington bread now being made by
Bretsch'S bakery. This bread is so
pure and wholesome, so much supe-
rior to any other bread ever offered
in Raleigh, that it is giving delight to
most Raleigh housekeepers. The
bread is delivered fresh each day and
saves home baking and the expense
and npleasantness of an intense fire
in hot weather. 1t satisfies servants
to relieve them of such intense heat.
Servants don't enjoy standing near a
baking oven all day, when they know
that their health is in danger. Have

BIOLOGICAL CLUB
Contest Of Young Scien-
lists Last Night.
FIRST Prize Won by J. O. Morgan, Sec
ond Prize by William Kerr
A Good Crowd in Primrose
Hall at A. & M. COLLEGE.

The Biological Club of the North
Carolina College of Agriculture and
Mechanic Arts held it's third annual
contest last evening in Primrose hall,
in the presence of a big crowd.
1t was a pleasant evening for the
scientists and those who were not, and
all present enjoyed the interesting
program. The presence of the young
ladies from the Baptist Female Uni
versity lightened the hearts of the
speakers, and all of them were at
their best. The ladies were highly in
terested and their pretty faces no
doubt made lasting impression upon
some of the cadets. There were many
other ladies from the city present
The first speaker on the program
was William Kerr, subject, "Some In
vestigations Concerning Distinction. "
He showed the necessity for a knOWl-
edge of bacteria and of the diseases
they cause, and how they may be de-
stroyed by use of disinfectants. Mr.
Kerr was at his best and showed by
his diagrams, charts and plates how
numerous these minute organisms are
and how rapidly they multiply. Then
he gave in detail, by chart illustra-
tons, methods and chemicals for de-
stroying them.
The second speaker was Mr.. Arthur
Lee Paschall, subject, Proper Fer
tilizer for Particular Soils Mr.
Paschall showed pots of radishes tes
ing the power of different fertilizers
upon these plants. His experiments
proved that he had devoted an i'm
mense amount of work to his re-
searches, and he had gathered some
valuable information His contribution
was an excellent one.

even to the scientists. He proved that
much of the unfruitfulness of or

excessive amount of water during
rainy weather. Mr. Chesbros drown

talk.
observations on Some Plant Dis
eases of West Raleigh" by Mr.. James
Oscar Morgan, was an exceptionally
good presentation. He is naturally a
gifted speaker and his work on draw
ings and his speech in general showed
that he was master OF the subject.
Mr.. Robert James Avery came last
on the program. His subject was,
physiological Experiments With
Farm Animals" By his chart he
showed that he had spent lots of time
| in finding the normal conditions OF
several different classes of farm ami
mails, such as temperature, respiration
and pulsation.
The Judges, Mr. Josephus Daniels,
| DR.. b. w. Kilgore and Prof. w. g..
Sackett, then retired and after a few
minutes returned and delivered the
| first prize, a compound microscope TO
Mr. Morgan, and the second prize, a
spray pump, to Mr.. Kerr.
The officers of the society are:
| William Walter Finley, president;
Robert James Avery. vice-president:
| Malcolm ROLAND McGirt, secretary

| tary.

Russians have already dismantled,
would pass into their hands. The en-
thire Lao Tung Peninsula in fact
save Port Arthur, and perhaps Kai
Ping would be commanded by them.
The satisfaction felt at the re-estab-
liShment of communication with Port
Arthur is Cccasioned by the knowledge
that a train of ammunition has been
safely delivered to the fortress. This
was done in the presence of the
enemy's army, which landed at Pitse-
Wo, and which is apparently on the eve
of being reinforced by another diVi-
sion on board thirty transports now

probable, the plan being to complete

Movements OF Kurol>i.
Besides acting energeticalIy in
southern ManChuria and moving on
Hai-Cheng, General Kuroki kept in
mind the necessity of outflanking
General Kuropatkin at Lao Yang as
is shown in the fact that onthe morn
ING of May 10, he started a formidable
force. consisting of d division of in
fantry and forty guns and 1900 cav

In view of General Kuropatkin's state
ment that an examination May 10th.
of the line between Sai1natSI and
Feng-Wang- Cheng disclosed the pres
ence Of Japanese, the authorities are
puzzled as to where the Japanese force
came from. a Japanese detachment
is reported officially to have occupied
KWan-Tein-Sien May 6, but it is be-
party belonging to General kuroki's
army.
The authorities are looking with
considerable philosophy on the divi-
sion by General Kuroki of his army
into three separate commands, Tor
they expect General Kuropatkin
promptly totake advantage OF the
numerical inferiority of the enemy
The fact that it was considered
necessary to send a train load of am
munition to Port Arthur has aroused
comment, and it is accepted III GER
tain quarters us an indication that the
Russians have not sufficient supplies
of war material there.
With such a large force of the
enemy before Port Arthur, IL is well
understood here that it is a question
of days, perhaps hours, before COM
munlcation is again cut off. 1t is
predicted that there will be a daring
attempt at a repetition of Lieutenant
Colonel SpiTidonoff's plan to get am
munition into Port Arthur.
One fact mentioned in the official
dispatches on which the authorities
lay stress is the action of the Chi
nese in saving a Japanese detachment
from a Cossack ambuscade. Such IN
cidents as these can only lead, 1t is
stated, to General Kuropatkin's taking
determined measures. He cannot
have the enemy within as we'll as out
side the lines.
