BuIItrog west Extension.

Bullfrog West Extension has been
incorporated and will take over the
Delaware No. l, Ethel and Jumbo
mining claims, adjoining the Original
Bullfrog mine on the north and west,
and the Bullfrog Extension mine, the
scene Of the fabulously rich tellurium
strike recently made, on the west.
Z. z. McGarry, postmaster Of
Bullfrog, New, and one of the promi-
nent merchants of that town, is
heavily interested in the property,
being one Of the original locators
thereof, and will be president Of the
company. Mr.. McGarry has been
engaged in the mining business
practically all his life, and considers
that he has in the Bullfrog West Ex-
tension company one of the coming
leaders OF the state, and he says that
he has prospected the property be-
ing taken over by the company suf-
%ticiently to have some idea of the
mine that will be developed. A
vigorous and systematic campaign Of
development work viii be commenced
within q few days, and pursued until
the mine is well opened up.
This is n Of the most important
organizations formed in the Bullfrog
district, and the property is known
to be among the most promising Of
that camp, and a few weeks or
months of active development work
ought to add the BuIlfrog West Ex-
tension company to the list Of Bull
frogs big producers.

The Only Sam Davis.

Sam Davis Of Carson CITY, Nevada,
has some fame as a humorist. He is
known to a more limited circle as the
editor Of tile Carson Appeal, a jour
nal that Is comparatively mocous and
wholly devoid of mdammatory char
acteristic MIR. Davis being Of a
thrifty turn, only printing in his own
paper what lie cannot sell to other
periodicals. In a still more circum
scribea circle he Is khow6 as the
State Controller 81 Nevada. MI.
Davis, whose humorous instinct sub
ordinates official gravity has now
suddenly achieved national fame by
denying the New York Life Insur-
ance Company the right 10 practice
medicine, or whatever IL calls its bust
ness, in the free, uutrammeled, battle
born state Of Nevada. This is q body
blow to the Insurance gratters, Tt
y also q star advertisement for Sam
Davis, who has hitherto been noted
principally for his verse and the al.
inelisioiis Of bis pedal, extremittcs.
The Carson Footprints are popularity
regarded as evidences Of Mr. Davis
literary genius, 1t can be readily
imagined that putting his foot down
on the New York Life is no laughing
matter, Notwithstanding the propen-
Of Mr.. Davis for raising a laugh.
The judicious will now rejoice that
the adequate punishment has at least
overtaken Mccall and bis associates,
who will hereafter be compelled to
out Of Nevada under penalty Of
forced to read the Carson APP
peal. Oakland Tribune.
