COAL CAMP
LOOMING UP
Radiant Promises to Rival
Best in the State.
Means Much For FlSrence Where
Trade Naturally Comes-Dis-
cription of Work Accom-
plished and In Progress

Like the children Of IsreAl We are
prone to look and seek away from
home for the good things and overlook
the blessings right at our feet. There
is land Of promise just seven miles
southeast Of Florence that 10 attract
ing attention ell over the state. The
Tribune with its usual enterprise sent
. reporter to the scere Of operations
yesterday 10 get the bottom facts con.
cerninR Radiant the new coal camp.
In company with T. E. Spencer the
scribe hiked out yesterday for the
Radiant mine owned and operated by
the Santa Fe. X. r. Co. Reaching
Rockvale. the commencing point on
the new road, the grading WAS fol-
lowed to Radiant the new town site
and location Of what will shortly be
the largest coal producing camp in
the state.
Great activity is in evidence along
the line Of the railroad extension and
in many places the grading is nearing
completion. At present track has
been laid but short distance and =
pile driver is employed to construct
q temporary trestle over tine guloh at
Rockvale. This system will be en-
ployed to eros, many depressions and
number Of high trestles will be con-
ssructed temporarily until substantial
bridges can be built. The rolling
nature of the ground necessitates An
enormous amount of work. In many
instances the dirt from the deep outs
is utilized to fill up depressions and
work thereby lessened. The coptrao-
tors have been fortunate in finding .
great depth Of soil but hundreds Of
empty powder Kegs bear testimony to
the unyielding rock below dirt. The
road runs southeast from Rockval
and extends about four and one half
miles, the distance to. the Radiant.
$50 men are employed in the grading
and construction divided into4 gangs
with tents scattered all u long the
route. The r. r. terminus will be
400 yards east Of Radiant where the
tipplss are being built affording ex.
cellent dumping ground. The camp
itself is now exhibiting all the life
and activity Of an up to date town.
A large boarding house has been erec.
ted and . we'll stocked general mer.

ness. A number of houses are com.
pleted while scores are in course Of
construction. The frame work of
upwards of 20 two room houses is
now in place waiting for the railrosd
to brihg up the rest Of material.
Rock work is being done on q number
of room houses. These houses will
comprise 40 in number when complet-
ed and rented to employees Of the
company. Foundations are laid for .
huge machine shop, stables and
offices. A large waro house will be

LOSS OF BATrLESHIP.
Yashlma Struck a Russian Mine
and Sank.

Paris. Nov. 4.-The Associated
Press states positively that its dis.
patches from Chee Foo. Port Arthur
and Toxic last June to the effect that
the Japanese battleship Yashims had
been sunk by q mine off Dalny, which
dispatches were denied by the Japan
ese authorities at the time, having
finally been officially confirmed. The
Japanese government has notified for
sign governments of the loss Of the
ship. The number of men who went
down with the vessel is not known
but it is believed to have been small.
The official details show that the
Yashima struck a Russian mine and
later ATTEMPTED to make Dalny harbor
but this proved impossible and she
sank in deep water.
The loss of the Yashima has been
concealed by the Japanese, though the
Russian authorities have believed for
some time that the reports that the
battleship had been destroyed were
correct. 1t is important since it is
now disclosed that Japan has only four
modern battleships remaining. These
are the Asahi, Full. Mikasa and Shik
isms. Another vessel classed as q
battlesfip is the Chin Yen, taken
from China in 1894, but she is old and
not Of much fighting value.

Inc Covelopment OF Nevaoa.

No state in the Union has so long
and so badly needed an increase of
population as has Nevada, says the
National Geographic Magazine. Her
population OF $4,000 to-day is less
than it was in 1870. six years after
her admission as state. 1t is graf
flying to know, therefore, that she
will more than double her present
numbers when the vast government
irrigation works begun on the True
kee and Carson rivers are completed
1t is estimated that the works will
make productive about $4,000 acres
of sage brush desert in the western
part of the state. These lands will
furnish fertile homesteads Of about
eighty acres each for $500 families
Towns and villages will naturally
spring up, so that Nevada may expect
