There are many people who appear to

from letters Of inquiry received con-
stantly asking for copies Of papers con.

when It was published, We wish our

RELIEF TO THE FAIR SEX.

A short time ago the Deseret News
called attention 10 the custom that has
prevailed, Of requiring applicants for
marriage licenses to give their ages,
and also requiring applicants for regis
tratlon as voters to do the same, while
the laws Of the State make no such de-
mand as condition precedent to OBJ
tanning license or registration for
voting. All that Is necessary as TO
obtaining q marriage license, 50 far as
age Is concerned, Is to declare that the
prospective bride Is eighteen and the
bridegroom twenty-one years OF age
and upward, aud for registration that
each voter. whether male or female, IL
twenty-one years Of age and upward.
There are many people who are aversc
to declaring how old they are, most Of
them being elderly ladies', who feel a
delcacy IN regard to the matter We
notice that County Clerk Eldredge has
decided to conform TO the law In re-
gard to this matter and a new appli-
cation blank and marriage license form
has been adopted by him, so that pub
llcity as to the actual ages Of brides
and bridegrooms when applying for
licenses need not become publicly
known. This Is a small matter per-
haps, but the step taken is on the right
line and viii prove satisfactory to a
great many people, and we hope It Will
result I'm "a considerable Increase OF
marriages In this county and that the
example will be followed In other parts
OF the state, The same rule should
apply in the future registration Of vo-
ters Let the law be fully complied
with, but let tho custom Of requiring
something more than the law provides
Tor be abolished

ShlppIn0 Mutton Sheep.

p. Latapie last week drove from
his East Walker ranch to Wabuska
six hundred mutton sheep for ship
ment to San Francisco. Mr.. Latapie
accompanied the shipment. Yester-
day ]. Stewart Edwards arrived
here from the Latapie ranch with
another flock of six hundred sheep
which will leave Wabuska tomor-
row tor San Francisco. Next week
like number will be shipped and
the week after the balance of the
23oo or 24oo head will go out. The
shipments are being strung along
this way because the shippers could
not obtain cars enough at Wabuska
to ship the entire lot at once. 1t is
quite an inconvenience to shippers
to not be able to get cars when they
want them, and the railroad COM
pany should try and remedy this
fault. The Latapie sheep now being
shipped are in splendid condition,
and are probably the finest lot of
mutton sheep that ever went out of
Nevada to any market.

PrOspeCt0rs Active.

For the past couple of months the
hills to the west of this valley have
been overrun with prospectors look
ing for copper prospects. Some very
fair looking claims have been located
and with development work may
show up good mines. Everybody is
looking for copper nowadays and
those who are locating in this dis
trict are getting in as close to the
Bluestone, Douglas, Ludwig, Dyer
and Spragg mines as possible, for
one, if not all of these properties,
will most likely be doing business on
an extensive scale before another
six months roll around. Look out
for claim jumpers tomorrow night.

Christmas Day.

Christmas day, the day before and
the day after, were quite lively ones
in Yerington. About everybody
took vacation and had good time.
The boys were all down from the
Bluestone, Douglas and Ludwig
mines, the saloons did a thriving
business, eggnog flowed freely and
the town had much the appearance
OF booming mining camp. There
were no disturbances, however, of a
serious nature. Several gambling
games were running full blast and
there were couple of lively poker
games where the play ran pretty
high. The dance in the Owl Hall on
Christmas night was largely attend
ed and all present had a good time,
the musicians being kept busy until
S o'clock the next morning. An ex-
cellent supper was served at the
Commercial Hotel at midnight. The
town has now again resumed its
former sobriety, the boys have gone
back to the mines and everybody
wears satisfied If some what weary
expression. But all days will be
Christmases and Sundays in the
town within the next six months.

w. H. Bryon, of San Jose, Cal,
who has been looking about the val

Nichol for a period of five years,
with the privilege of ten. Mr.. Bryon

also separating plant, and will
breed up herd of dairy cows. He
will also go into the hog raising bust
ness on large scale. The two in
dustries are closely allied and Mr..
Bryon believes they can be carried
on here in conjunction with splendid
results. He is not new hand in
the dairy business and will undoubt-
eddy make a success of his venture.

of B. H. Reymers, in Mason Valley,
when Miss Alvina Reymers became
the bride of Howard Rogers, of ding

ing given to the groom by her father.
The bride was dressed in white silk
and orange blossoms and carried a
beautiful boquet of lilies of the val
ley, and presented charming ap-
pearance. After the ceremony the
relatives of the family and the few
invited guests present congratulated
the bride and groom, and a little later
on sat down to sumptuous Christ
mas dinner. After dinner songs
were sung and Miss Hazel MeNeely
presided at the piano in some choice
instrumental selections, the merry
crowd finally taking its departure
about S o'clock. The bride and groom
are still in the valley, but expect to
take their departure for Olinghouse
next Thursday where Mr.. Rogers is
engaged in mining, and where they

FL. Littell recently purchased the
old Cuyahoga mill building, located
on the other side of the range of
mountains to the west of this valley,
and last week hauled the old lumber
to Yerington, where he will use it
for building purposes. The old build
ing contained several thousand feet
of fairly good lumber. This is about
all that was left in that camp, the
machinery having been disposed of
in odd lots at different times during
the past two or three years.

There is more Catarrh in this Sec
ton of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it local disease
and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven catarrh
to be a constitutional disease and
therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. ]. Cheney 4 Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu-
tional cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to
a teaspoontul. 1t acts directly on
the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system. They offer one hundred
dollars for any case it tails to cure.

claims in the new camp of Golden,
Nye county, about as miles north of
Tonopah and 40 miles east of Nina,
write to 1. A. Strosnider, of this
place, who is interested in the prop
erty, that the claims are looking
splendid as development work is ad
vanced. A big ledge is being opened
up on one claim, and at depth of IL
feet ore has been encountered that
assays SIso.7s in gold and $S54.9S in
silver per ton. Z. r. Shields, for
merly of Pine Grove, has taken a

shaft on the claim will be continued
on down to the Ioo-foot level and then
prosecuting will be done, which
will undoubtedly open up fine
