Says the Tonopah Mining Com.
pany is Moving 500, 900 Worth
OF Ore Monthly.
THE LUCK OF "zEB" KENDALL.
Former Resident Of Lehi Has Been
Making Some Big Clean.Ups - His
Brothers Tragic Death.

j. W. Langley has returned from a
trip covering two weeks in Tonopah,
Nevada's new mining camp. He brings
only the most encouraging reports from
that district.
The railroad has been completed %
miles out OF sodavllle, and freight and
passengers will be transported by that
route after April 20.
There are a great many people going
into Tonopah every day" said Mr..
Langley, "and II Is generally believed
that a large quantity OF ore Will be
moved as soCl as the railroad is COM
pleted. which will be within 40 days.
The TonoDah Mining company is ship
ping 100000 worth Of ore monthly, and
| was informed that the Montana Tono.
pah company was shipping about $4,000
worth per month. At Goldfeld, the two
large Observation-Disclosures and jan
uary leases-are showing up better than
''NA' ihN oohudly leuot 10 tHc HllHc III
which "zeb" Kendall of Lehi Is so
heavily interested He has had mar
velous luck. In one day he took from
$4,000 to $4,000 worth OF ore out OF the
claim. He has made a fortune of 100000
or SO,OOO-the first fortune made In the
region.
while | was there ,Zeb's' brother,
Curt Kendall, was shot and killed by
a man named Howard Sharp. The trou-
bic was over some mining claims, and
both of them, understood, were out
looking for each other with guns.
''Tonopah is coming out Of the boom
talk and business Is at last being done
on solid basis. 1t looks great. The
railroad. which will run from Rhodes
to Tonopah, will open up such ter
ritory that ore which now cannot be
worked at a profit will be exported at
tremendous profit. Instead of freight
ing II by team for 60 miles. for exam
pie, II will require only 30 miles OF
teamwork In most cases when the road
Is completed"

LOOSE STOCK AND LAWNS.

Roswell has ceased to be a village,
and it is time for her to put aside
village ways. It was not long ago
that the beef steer and his sister
could roam at will through the streets
and by-ways of the. village and do
little damage. But now that Ros-
well has grown to the proportions of
a city, and is beginning to take pride
in her well kept lawns and good
streets, her trees and grass and flow
ers, it becomes imperative that these
be protected. The people must choose
between loose stock and beautiful
lawns. The two do not go together.
In fact, the former goes owe the lat
ter once or twice and all the latter's
beauty is destroyed for a year or
two The town COW it seems must go
and when she goes she must be led
through the streets and not driven.
1t is up to the city council to frame
an ordinance that will protect the
trees and flowers and grass, without
doing undue violence to the property
rights of the owner of the trouble
some bovine.

Cincinnati, o., May 4.-The wed
daughter OF a wealthy manufacturer
and heiress in her own right to a
large fortune. and Eresta Vesalla, the
leader of the Italian band, is the cul
mination of a romance begun at At.
lantic City last summer. The meet.
ing of the pair at Atlantic City, where
the bridegroom of today led the band
that played on Young's pier and the
of summer visitors, was a case of
love at first sight. The Italian band
master wooed and won Miss Egan
without ~encountering any insurmount
able obstacles, but the young lady's
parents were not so easily won over
to the match. Mrs. Egan would not
consent to the announcement of the
engagement until she had looked
carefully into Vasalla's past and
found the only thing against him to
be his poverty.

The daily sentinel., 1904-03-14
Vote Almost Unanimous.

On account of the lateness of the
hour at which the canvassing of the
votes. for the proposed increase OF the
capital stock of the Grand Junction
Fruit Growers association was con-
cludoG Saturday Afternoon, the mere
announcement of the vote and that it
carried was given TO the Sentinel S
readers.
The matter was most important
The vote for and against the increase
was 400 for and 30 against. So near
" unanimous was the vote to increase
the stock that it can be said that it
was unanimous
1t is better that there was such a
general expression favorable to the in
rease, as there is now practically but
one side to the question
The old capitalization was S25. 600 !;
the new capitalization is $50, 600 In a
talk with one of the directors OF the
association he stated that like all big
business corporations the association
was at times compelled to borrow
money to take discounts. this being
good business. This borrowing was
done because there was not sufficient
available money which was not in the
business to take advantage of the dis
counts. The interest paid fol this
money and some items which could
have been saved elswhere. had there
been large reserve fund to work upon,
would have paid a dividend of good
proportions upon the increased capita
lization.
The stockholders of the association
think that altogether the increase of
the capital stock is a very good thing
for the association and it would seem
to be so from business standpoint.
The association has been earning
good money on the capital invested
and with the growth of the city and
the increase in the fruit bearing area.
there will be just as much chance to
earn fair dividend on the increased
capitalization. as upon the former
capital.
