OLD MINERS DIZZY WEEK
Prospector Spend $4,000 in Six Days
of Carouse

GOLDFIELD. New. April 19.-Old
Edward Chase, a veteran prOspector of
Nevada, has just finished his self i'm
posed task Of getting rid of $500 in
days and has returned to the noun
tains to take up the search for another
mine. His worldly possessions now
consists of two burrows, a camp outfit,
prospectors' tools, and supply of food
purchased with another's money.
Chase and his partner lately sold a
claim that they had located, each part
ner receiving $4,000 in cash. Chase's
partner still retains his money, but the
old prospector seized the chance to
give this place the dizziest week of its
life. Payment was made Monday af-
ternoon. Chase at once converted mis-
money into $40 gold pieces, filled his
pockets and started out. He avoided
the gambling tables but invited every
man he met to drink at his expense,
and during the week had a crowd of
drinkers almost constantly at his heels.
He scorned to accept change. After
the second day the bartenders never
charged him less than $25 for round
of drinks, regardless of the number of
drinkers, and frequently assessed him
S1OO for each round.

were decided sensation at the Ok
ford hotel for three days, wnere they
had clerks, girls and bell boys chasing
gold pieces almost continually, and
came near driving all the other guests

tearing up things at the SWEETEST hotel
in Little London
Walker and Jerome are the sole
owners of a claim in Goldfield, for a

THEY HELD ANOTHER SESSION
IN NEW YORK HOTEL THIS
MORNING..
A Committee Will Urge the LegisIa-
ture to Change the Charter of
the Society.

NEW YORK, April 19-Tne general
agents of the Equitable Life Assur-
at the Hotel Savoy this morning
They will consider the formation of a
permanent organization of general
agents and district managers and dis
cuss the adivisabi1ity of sending
committee to Albany 20 petition the
governor and legislature to amend the
charter of the society so as to allow
policy holders to become directors
and allow policy holders to vote for
directors.
Vice President Tarbell said the story
that President Alexander intended to
resign was preposterous. He said
Alexander was the one man fitted for
the position and he will hold it until
the day he dies. The agents cheered
the statement. Tarbe1l also denied
perintendent of agencies, Knowles,
that he had manipulated the agency
appointments in the interest of the
Alexander faction.
When a recess was taken it was
learned a resolution calling upon Vice
President Hyde to resign had been
adopted after a heated discussion. It
is said the resolution condemns Hyde
both personally and in his business
capacity. A committee was appointed
to notify Hyde.

J. w. Cookerly, who was in Dayton
yesterday on business stated this
morning that surveyors are at work
between Lewiston and Dayton on an
electric road project. Dayton people
seemed very much interested in the
news that surveys are being made be-
tween Lewiston and that point for an
electric road" Mr.. Cookery said
1.-The general impression is that the
same parties who are promoting the
Jay P. Graves line out of Spokane
are interested in this project. If such
is the case it is almost an assured
fact that the road will be built within
a short time
Another story was in circulation
yesterday to the effect that the pro-
posed road will be a branch of the
lewiston Grangeville electric line
which is now being financed by Lewis
ton and upper Idaho people, and that
the line will not stop at Dayton, but
will be pushed clear through to Pen
dleton passing through Waitsburg
Walla Walla, Milton, Weston, Athena
and Adams on the same route that
was surveyed out for the Mellmar

Primrose Day in England.

LONDON, April 19.-Primrose Day,
the anniversary of the birth of Lord
Baconsfield, was widely observed to-
day as usual Since the death of the
great statesman, in 1881, first brought
to light his enormous popularity with
the British people, Primrose Day has
year by year become more and more a
national institution, and today the
primrose reigned supreme. At every
corner were to be found flower girls
with great baskets full of them, every
bus driver and cabby sported bou-
ouet and almost every one seen on the
streets was decorated with the COM
mon badge.
The main point of interest was the
Baconsfeld statue in Parliament
Square, and here, in an unbroken
stream. visitors were to be seen de-
positing about the heavy pedestal
wreatns and trophies in infinite vari-
ety of design. The statue in Westmin-
ster Abbey was also profusely dec
grated.

When they discovered that he was

a famous athlete and a crack oarsman
as young man, and is now in the full

council believes that a city ordinance
providing no one over forty shall be

to the chief as well as partlmen.
