May Get Left.

An article recently appeared
in the Salt Lake Herald to the
effect that an attempt would be
made to have the G. & G. railroad
enter a cutoff near the Indian
reservation and leave Carson and
the local road off the map. The
Appea! says this is simply the
work of the wide awake Salt
Lake people, and that is where
they shine. OF course there
never may be anything done in
the matter, and the probabilities
are that the Southern Pacific
will look toward this end before
cutting us off, but at the same
time it is time that Carson began
10 realize that there are other
towns on earth, and that they
are out after every dollar that is
floating in the tide Of trade.

Nerves Were All Right.

Cars III News: The State Medi.
cal Board had a meeting in this
city recently, and one of the
visiting physicians. told the fol-
lowing story:
A patient called at his office,
stated his ills, and the doctor
wrote out prescription and then
handed it to him. The patient
then inquired the probable cost
of getting it filled, and was told
about 60 cents would pay the
bill. The patient then asked for
the loan of the 60 cents. The
doctor, scratching his head, drew
a line through several items of
the prescription, and then hand
ed it back to the patient, saying:
Now you can get it filed for a
dime. Those I scratched out
We're for your nerves; but l see
you don't need anything for
them"

Great Excitement Now Prevails
In Churchill County.
In the afternoon of the 18th
inst. while sinking a we'll on the
property of r. l.. Douglass at
Fallon, says the Wadsworth Dis
patch, oil was encountered, and
excitement reached fever heat.
Claims were staked out in every
direction and other wells will be
bored. If oil can be found in
paying quantities the future of
Churchill county will take on q
more roseate hue than at pres.
ent, with the great work being
done by the government in fur
nishing water to irrigate the
large tract of land in that county.
The discovery of oil simultane.
ously with the settling up of this
country by homeseekers would
be a great boon. as it would not
only furnish q greater home mar
ket for the products of the farm
ers, but would also furnish light
and fuel to the farmers at a com
paratively trifing expense.

Rad Management anu "SS
Work Did Not Pay.
The Carson Appeal contains
the following regarding Louis
chalmers, who died recently in
England;
When Chalmers took hold of
the Silver Mountain property for
his English hackers, it looked
like one of the big things OF the
West. He had ore on the sur
face, but not being content with
this. he started one OF the most
extensive tunnels eyer attempted
IN the West. The tunnel was to
he a little over a mile long, and
before the funds gave out he had
# within few hundred feet of
where he expe tied to tap the
ledge. The tunnel was 9x11 in
the clear, and two mule trains
= could pass in the elegantly tim
bered hole in the ground.
During the time that the tun-
mel was being driven, he had two
mills erected to reduce the ore
when they came upon it. The
mills never turned q wheel. and
a few years ago Alex. McCone
moved them out of the section.
He broke his hackers, and
when the crash came, Chalmers
left the country, never to return.
When he departed he did not
do the one act that would have
endeared him to the people. He
left his wife in the deserted viii
lage. She alone had to face the
disappointed miners and people.
She has struggled in poverty
ever since he left, and year after
year she has eked out an exist
ence to the surprise of the peo-
pie Of Alpine county. The dis
appointments that were shower
ed upon her and the poverty has
partially unsettled her mind, and
Mrs. Chalmers, the wife of the
great promoter, is, about all that
is left in Silver Mountain to tell
the story of the venture that
failed.
To this day the place has a
fascination. The substantial
work of Chalmers is still in evil
dence, The remains of Burnley
drills, old cars, of blowers and
the foundry are lying scattered
about the diggings. Thousands
of dollars worth of material was
packed off by the visiting pros
pectors, and Silver mountain was
cleaning station for all who
wanted to start a prospect in the
district.
