Buffalo Beef.

Experiments by American ranchmen
have produced new form of meat. It
is called hybrid buffalo and it is de-
scribed as a cross between bison and
beef, with the best qualities of each
intensified. The crowned heads of Eu-
rope are said to have taken to it enthusi-
astseally, but as it has to be reared and
fed as wild cattle there Is said to be
great difficulty in conveying it to mar.

who had Indian blood, as Mr..
Curtiss, of Kansas, is also of
that strain, and is member of the Kaw
tribe 1t is said that Senator Clapp,
of Minnesota, also has a slight admix-
ture of the red mans blood, and his APP
pearance indicates it. He has the
straight black hair and black eyes OF the
aborigines. The senator does not men
ton this straiu if he has any, but neither
does Mr.. Curtiss, but neither of them is
ashamed of the pure American blood
Senator Clapp, who has just been re-
elected, is developing into one of the
strong men in the United States senate.
He is an indefatigable worker, and dur
ing the recent hearings before the inter
state commerce committee, he proved
one of the best cross-eXaminerS of wit
nesses in favor of further regulation OF
railway rates. The senator used to live
in Hudson, Wis, and was next-door
neighbor to Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury Taylor The latter tells some
interesting stories about Clapp's early
experience as political campaigner.
On one occasion the gathering he was
to address was packed with the hardest
lot of unconvertible democrats there
ever was. Clapp got UP and began to
talk, but was howled down in just half
minute. Again and again he was COM
PEELED to stop, and the crowd would only
subside when he told funny story.
Finally an old Irishman, who knew him
and knew Clapp's name was Moses,
shouted to him: Don't mind them, Mo;
they are lot of rowdies, no decent peo-
ple would come"

SCHOLAR STATESMAN LOSES PRESTIGE
Some there be that call him

Some there be that call him politician rather
than statesman. This of very recent day.
When Henry Cabot Lodge left the quiet and Sc
clusion of the study to represent Massachusetts in
congress- the public said: Here is disinterested
service to ones country-a man surrendering his
tastes giving his unusual ability towards the pur
flying of politics. But years go by it looks as
though the scholar had developed-that seems hard
ly the word to use-into quite politician.
His political career in brief is as follows From
1898 he was member OF congress; since 1893 he
has been United States senator. Not alone Wash
ington but the country over has been aware of the
intimacy and congenality existing between Roose-
welt and Henry Cabot Lodge. Both scholars, both
enthusiastically interested in American history they
have had much in common, been great chums But

A LYING T.

The Reno journal, which has al
taken a fiendish delight in
knocking Tonopah is continuing its
dirty work, with renewed vigor. Lie
after lie has appeared in its columns
during the past month regarding the
health conditions and the death rate
of our great camp. Sensational
stories about the Asiatic cholera and
the bubonic plague raging here and
other equally as n%onsenSical state,
ments have appeared with great
regularity of late in that filthy sheet.
Such articles can only be considered
as having emanated from a diseased
or watered brain. OF course 1t is
possible that the unreliable sheet has
al Interior motive for its despicable
acts and that there is method in Its
madness 1t is possible, and, in fact,
quite probable, that Reno is envious
OF our great and rapid growing city
and the disciple of yellow journalism
which is published in its midst, may
consider that it is in duty bound to at
tack Tonopah in its lying columns al
every opportunity. But whatever
its motive or whatever Its object,
the fact remains that it is and al
ways has been. a bitter, u%nrelenting
enemy of this camp and its lies about
Us have been malicious and cowardly
in the extreme.

RECENT MINING DECISIONS.

According to a decision handed
down in the case of Willitt VS.. Baker
a few days ago, where the original
locators of a mining clam were en-
gagged in doing the annual assess.
ment work on the 3lst Of December,
and left their tools on the claim that
night, intending to resume work the
next day, which they did, their pos.
session and work were continuous,
and one who relocated the claim dur.
ing the night was a trespasser and
acquired no rights.
Another decision recently rendered
in Colorado, is to the effect that the
discovery of a vein or lode before any
other steps are taken to perfect the
location is not required. These are
certainly important decisions and
will interest quite u number of PEG.
pie in this section.

camp ever published, that written

signs his name Mike OF land he is
certainly way Off wins the capital
prize. The fellow, who was orig.
inally a barber, but who has during
recent years conducted Tor has at
tempted toy the Log Cabin gambling
house in Baker City, spent n day
in this camp last month land that is
all he SPENT and yet he undertakes
to tell the public all about this Sec
ton of the universe. OF course he
found a ready listener for his fairy
tale, in the person Of the publisher
of an obscure poodle dog sheet in
Baker City, Oregon, who has caught
the fever and is trucking in the
wake of the large (2) yellow dog
journals. The yellow sheet publishes
his living statement word for word
and the first few lines show the
animus a~ctuating the writer. They
are as follows: Every day the evil
dence corroborates the fact that the
Baker county mining district is SUI
perior to the Tonopah and Goldfeld
country, both in resources and OPP
portunities. When | first visited
those places | became convinced Of
this fact and now | know it beyond
any question.
$50 far there have been but three
or four claims discovered that a be
safely counted upon and the develop
meut is slow on these. The Bullfrog

For many months there has not been
a single bona fide discovery of note.

publicity when we should have hun.
dreds of people with means coming

sources under your hat and there il
certainly nothing there.

work in bakeries in that state. Jus.

declared that no ore important de-
eision has been rendered in the last

that a mar is worthy Of his hire.

George Wingfeld is one Of Tono-

OF standing, Of wealth and OF calm
good judgment and yet when he sent
the following telegram to the Reno
Journal it was evidently consigned
to the waste basket, where the
Journal properly belongs: "While
the conditions have been bad, the re-
ports published have been very much
exaggerated. With a population Of
five thousand, there have been in the
last two mouths about forty five
deaths. The Gazette received the
same telegram, and in striking con
trast, not only published it, in bold
faced type, but also published tele-
grams from other %well.known citi.
zens Of the camp, commenting upon
them as follows:
Nov it is but fair to presume
that these men are telling the truth.
To say that a responsible, reputable
citizen would Intentionally underrate
any conditions which may or may not
exist in the to of Tonopah for the
sake OF a camp prestige, which would
mean for the sake of dollars aut
cents, would be to accuse that citi
zen of a ghovlish and abnormal crime
The men whose kilograms appear
above are known throughout Nevada
They do not say there is no sickness
in Tonopah, but they do say that til,
stories being circulated are crimina
exaggerations, which they are.
All of which shows the d~ifferenc,
between a yellow journal and a re
putable newspaper.
