From twelve to fifteen men are
now kept employed on development
work at the Ludwig copper mine.
AS now outlined the work will be in
the nature of running an upraise
from the oolevel to the 3oo-level, and
on up to the 2oo-level to obtain air.
For the present development work
on the 500, or water level, will be
carried on as far as practicable by
baling. The water is not coming in
very fast yet, and it may be possible
to get few feet deeper by timber
ing without pumping. The object
of the owners of the property is to
find out as near as possible how ex-
tensive the ore body is at the water
level without putting in extensive
pumping machinery. Should it be
demonstrated that the ore body is a
large one, and all indications go to
show that it is, then a pumping
plant of considerable capacity will
be installed and greater depth at
tanned. The water coming from the
56o-level carries about forty pounds
of copper to the ton.

The Halloween Bali.

The hallowe'e party given in the
Owl Hall Tuesday night under the
management OF the Misses Wilson.
was well attended and all pres
ent had a delightful time. The affair
was novel in many features. The
hall was decorated with regular old
fashioned pumpkin jack-o'-lanterns
and at the hour of midnight Miss
Queen Wilson, the witch, told for
tunes in a style that would have
made the Queen of the Romantics en-
vious. A home supper was served
in the witch's den in the hall and 1t
was delicious repast. The music
for the occasion was excellent and
it was after o'clock the next morn
ing before the merry clowd dis
persed for home.

Mlnlno Men Visit Pise 0svve.

S. A. Knapp and B. z. Shear, min
ing men, came in from Tonopah the
first of the week and continued on
up to Pine Grove to look at the old
Wilson property. This property
seems to have quite an attraction
for mining men. Its record has been
good one down to water level. The
proposition of unwatering the mine
so that greater depth may be OBJ
tanned is what contronts any COM
pany which may take hold of the
property. This will be an expensive
job, with always a chance of not
having the ore hold out in quantity
and values. In this property, how
ever, the indicat tons are chat there
are large ore bodies below the water
level and that they are valuable. 1t
would seem strange if the ore did
cut off at the water level as the prop
erty has produced several millions
in bullion down to this level. Messrs.
Knapp and Shear are very tavorably
impressed with the property and
may be able to do business with it.
They took their departure for San
Francisco Thursday.

40 Old Landmark Destroyed.

Last Sunday morning the old Cal
vert toll house, near Mound House,
was destroyed by FIRE. 1t was one
of the oldest houses in this section
of the country and stood halt in
Lyon county and half in Ormsby
county. In years gone by, when
the overland stage travelled that
route and teams hauled quartz to
the Carson River mills and freight
into Virginia City, the toll house
did thriving business, and many
the tales could the walls of the old
house have related could they have
spoken. Some years ago Uncle Tom
Calvert died in Carson and the old
house was sold to n gypsum compa-
ny. Now nothing remains of once
famous hostelry.

ARGUMENT ON WATER CASE
II. $. Hall opens for Company in Suit
Brought to Restrain Board
in Federal Court.


The argumens on the motion for tenn
porary Injunction on behalf of the Omaha
Water company to restrain the Water
board of the city of Omaha from enforcing
it's recent Order No. /, establishing the
meter rate of % cents per thousand gall
Ions, We're begun in the United States cir
cult court Thursday morning before Judge
Munger.
Attorney r. S. Hall opened the argument
for the water company, occupying the en-
tire forenoon of Thursday The gist Of
Mr.. Halls argument is in elaboration OF
the facts set forth in the petition of the
water company when applying for the in
junction. that the fixing of the 25 cents
meter rate was unjust and unfair and that
the water could not be furnished for that
rate, which would be less than cost. Ho
maintained, further, that no minimum rate
had been established BY the Water board.
and that as a fact out OF the 1900 taps
or services furnished by the water COM
pany to Omaha consumers of water, that
1000 take less than 1000 gallons of water
daily, and that for this reason a minimum
water rate should be established. The
matter of the appraisement of the water
works also was dwelt upon, and COM
parlsons were made of the water rates
charged consumers In other cities, where
both maximum and minimum rates were
established
Howard Mansfield of New York City, an
attorney for the water company, followed
Mr.. Hall in his argument Thursday after
noon, speaking for about an hour and a
half. Mr.. Mansfield held that II the in
junction was dismissed the water COM
pany would be put to serious trouble and
Inconvenience In the multiplicity of suits
| that would fellow the lowering OF the rate
| since order No. 1 of the board had been
issued.
Mr.. Mansfield was followed by Carl C.
Wright, attorney for the Water board. Mr..
Wright maintained that the Water COM
pany had made no showing that the rate
proposed by the order Of the Water board
would be less than the cost of production
Of water, as implied in the rate fixed by the
Water board at 5 cents per 1000 meter
gallons Hence he said the court could not
Interfere by injunction in the controversy
unless such showing Is made by the
water company.
John L. Webster followed Mr. Wright
for the Water board, taking up the legal
aspects OF the case and holding TO the
general principle that the rates as fixed
by the Water board were ample to meet
all the producing expenses of the water
company.
Judge ]. NJ. Woolworth followed Mr..
Webster, speaking on tehaf OF the water
company.
Judge Munger will take the q Sc under
advisement at the conclusion of Judge
woolworth's argument and may not hand
down his decision for several days.
