A NOTORIOUS CRIMINAL.

In Sweden there is a man named
Loefdahl who is said to be in one
respect the most notorious criminal
on record. He has been charged
with no less than l,S07 different
crimes. lie began his career as a
forger and did not stop until he had
forged 1900 documents. Then he
decided to make money by setting
houses on fire, and he had burned
seven dwellings before he was
caught. Most of the documents
which he forged we're receipts for
salaries of railroad employees, and
for every house which he burned
he obtained the full value from an
insurance company.
1t is estimated that if the full
penalty of the law we're to be i'm
posed for each ofFcnse Loefdahl
would have to spend several centu-
ries in prison.

Struck AGAINST Mirrors.

No one could have supposed that
a company of girls would go out on
strike because there were too many
mirrors in their workroom. 1t has
happened, however, in New York.
The trouble was that the foreman
had arranged the mirrors around
his desk so that without seeming to
notice he could see whether or not
the girls were working steadily.
When the device was called to the
attention of the proprietor he sided
with the girls, and the strike ended.

Insensible to Pain.

DR.. Carl Lumholtz, who spent
five years between 1890 and 1898
in northwestern Mexico, tells of the
endurance of the members of tribe
called the Tarahumare. These peo-
pie will easily run 40 miles without
stopping. They have regular races
as test of endurance rather than
speed. AS a proof of their insensi-
bility to pain DR.. Lumholtz once
witnessed twenty-three hairs pulled
out in one stroke from the head of
a sleeping child, who merely scratch
ed its head little and slept on.

lie Got the Job.

/ was much amused the other
day" said an uptown hardware
dealer, lat small boy who came
around looking for n job. One of
the clerks had dropped lot of
sharp-pointed tacks into drawer
of brass screws and had given up
the idea Of taking them out.
"When the youngster turned
up looking for u job, we thought
we would try him out by letting
him sort the two articles. He
went at it the same way we had
begun, picking out the tacks with
his fingers and getting the point
of every third tack in the ball of
his thumb.
He had enough in about a
minute and he Strengthened up.
We began to smile, expecting him
to give up the job. Instead of
that he went over to the showcase
and picked out a horseshoe mag
net. Then he came back to the
box. In thirty seconds he had
the tacks out and the screws were
still in the compartment. He
knew that the magnet would at
tract iron and not brass, and in
jiify he accomplished what he had
been trying to do all the morning.
"We really didn't need a boy,
but this chaps smartness appealed
to us, and we find him so handy
to have around that next Satur-
day he gets a raise. st. Louis

ind taking pity on the wounded mans
plight, helped him on his mule and took
him to an inn, where he ordered food
and drink and raiment for the man
directing the inn keeper to send the bill
to him. "And dis am true story, breth'

THE RUSH IS ON IN NEVADA.

After many years of Rip Van Wrinkle
siumber in the Battle Born" state, the
rush is fairly on again in Nevada, and
this section of the west is now one Of the
most popular fields for mining venture
and investment TO be found in the Rocky
Mountain region. Nevada, with its
great mineral wealth. was bulwark OF
strength to the Nation during the period
OF the Civil War, but its glory departed
with the demopetization of silver as the
white metal was its chief production
during its early history of bonanza
camps and prolific districts, and for a
quarter OF century mining has been on
the decline within the environments OF
our sister commonwealth.
With the discovery of Tonopah, how
ever, few years ago, an awakening
came to the sagebrush state, and now it
is on the high tide Of prosperity, and the
fame of its new fields and avenues of
wealth reaches from the Pacific to the
Atlantic; from San Francisco to PhIla
delphia, and so rich are the discoveries
recently made in the desert camps of
this section that people are rushing TO
these new Eldorados by the hundreds
and by the thousands, and, so produc-
tive have these new finds become that
thriving cities have sprung up, as il in a
night, in localities that not long ago
were bleak and lonely deserts, while
railroads have been built and the con.
veniences and luxuries of old and civil
lied countries have obtained, showing
clearly the power OF gold, and verifying
the oft repeated statement that the yel-
low metal is the magnet that attracts all
mankind.
The Central Nevadan. [volume] (Battle Mountain, Nev.) 1885-1907, 1904-08-25

Since the discovery OF Tooopah, the
mining industry in Nevada has been i'm
bued with new life and vigor, and the
more recent discovery of Goldfield, moi
far distant, has set the mining world
afire, as it were; and, SO great is the in
terest now being taken in mining in this
State that nearly every section Of pron,-
Use, within its boundary lines, is now re-
ceiving attention, and no difficulty is ex-
perienced in attracting the capitalist and
investor to the many deserted camps
which many years ago were productive
of their thousands, of their millions, in
the precious and baser metals.
AS Nothing Succeeds Like Success,
it is evident that Nevada camps are but
on the verge of great wave of prosperi-
ity, aud that the result of the onward
movement OF an army of prospectors
through the mountain ranges of the
State will be that many more new and
important discoveries will yet be chron-
icled. as but small portion of this ex-
tensive commonwealth has been visited
by the pathfinder, the prospector, and
the hardy mountaineer who blazes the
trails that will open to the world new
county rich in its mineral possibilities.
just DOW the rush for Nevada is on
and, as the camps of this State can be
worked from one end of the year to the
other, with the Winter months having
the preference in majority of cases, we
may expect that great things will be ac-
complished before the close of another
year in the foothills canyons and noun
tain passes of the great stretch of coun-
try lying between the states of Utah
and California. S. L. Mining Review.
