rHE A ANa

In running a trench across a 25-foot
ledge on the Socristo claim in the Slate
range country Tony Viera, a well
known Goldfeld miner, cut an 18-inch
streak that returned gold values from
$11 to $3.50 to the ton a short time ago
and he is now preparing to prove up the
find at depth. Viera returned to Gold
field recently from that section where
he had been engaged in doing the az
nual assessment work on a number of
his holdings, and while there added
several more claims to his acreage. He
reports that the strike on the Secristo
bids fair to develop into a money
maker and is of the opinion that the
Slate range offers as favorable an OPP
portunity for the profitable investment
of capital as any mineral area in Ne
vada. He further states that many
prospectors are engaged in doing their
annual work and that this has resulte I
in the locating of many promising
veins.
William Crane, who has charge of
the property of the Bullfrog George
company, is in the city this week
spending the holidays. Mr.. Crane says
the Slate range is the scene of consid-
cradle activity and that many promis-
ing properties are being developed and
there are numerous shafts in the dis
triet from a few feet to n hundred
feet deep.

1t will be a mighty cold day when
Santa Claus fails to visit his little
friends during the happy yule tide sea
SON and so despite the severity Of the
weather he dropped in at Ladies' Aid
hall last Friday evening and passed a
pleasant hour in distributing presents
from his plethoric pack among the
youngsters Of the Presbyterian Sunday
school. The merry old fellow Jared
across the desert on the track of the
north wind and hitching his reindeer
to a convenient chimney stack pumped
down among the little folks just at the
moment they were wishing most ard
emily for his arrival.
The jovial old fellow has RECALLED
himself for SO many years with the
sweeties he disburses with such gen.
erous hand that he is daily becoming
more rolly polly and SO his rotundity
made it impossible for him to scramble
down the very ~diminutive fiue. That
fact did not disturb him for a minute,
however, and he burst in through the
doorway shouting his greetings to
young and old alike.
He was clad in furs from top to toe,
his little red nose glowing like a hot
coal amid the icicles Of his hoary beard,
and his eyes twinkled with pleasure at
the very first glimpse Of the radiant
faces of the children. They were clus-
tered together on the stage ten deep
and were by far the most valuable AMI
cherished double handful Of nuggets
ever found in the camp. Santa barely
deigned to notice the grown ups after
the first greetings, but hustled to the
platform and shook hands with the
little folks all arouno. Then the shaw
ers sang for him and in return he sang
for them. AS a vocalist Santa Claus is
not much Of a success, but the hoarse-
ness of his voice is probably due to the
fact that the frost gets into his tweedle
pipes during his long journeys at
Christmas time, and it is more than
likely that when he was young, on that
Christmas night centuries ago which
heralded the birth Of the King of
Kings in tn lowly manger at Bethlc-
hem, that he voiced his alteration and
praise quite as sweetly as did those
three wise men of the east who saw
the star and followed it.
1t required but a glance at the eager,
upturned faces for the generous, kind
hearted old saint to appreciate how
keenly the children anticipated the
opening of his pack and he didn't keep
them waiting a minute. Diving his
fur mittened hand into the depth of the
receptacle he brought forth present
after present, and bag upon bag #
goodies, and distributed them until

there was not a child in the room but
had received some token of his
visit. One sturdy little shaver handed
the old fellow a letter in which he ne
titioned for a drum and a whistle whip,
and received in return a pat on the
head and the promise that they would
be forthcoming on Christmas morning.
After the wants of the youngsters
had been cared for Santa Claus ap-
peared to have an inkling that his
older friends would like to meet him
and so, like the kindly old gentleman
that he is, he went down into the body
of the hall and distributed Christmas
gifts and cheer. 1t is quite possible
that he recognized some of the faces in
the audience and remembered having
looked upon them in the days before
the fretful hand Of time had furrowed
cheek and brow; and certain it is that
he did remember n little lady, and
in remembering, presented her with an
apple as rosy as her own sweet face.
While Santa Claus was at the hall a
reporter for The News dropped in and
asked him If there were any POSSIBLE
tiles of a race suicide in the United
States. He chuckled merrily at the
question and replied that if the re-
porter knew as much as he did about
that matter he would not even advance
such an appalling suggestion. "There
is nothing to it, absolutely nothing to
it, he said, land you know that if
anyone is capable of judging matters
Of that character / am" He further
stated that never during his long perioj
Of service in the interest Of the little
ones of the world had he ever been II
busy as he is this season, and said he
had been working overtime for a yea,
in the effort to have his gifts ready
and keep his Christmas appointments
promptly. He reports the arrival u
many new friends during the past
twelvemonths, and whispered conf
dentially in the ear of the reporter
that he anticipated the advent of 9
number of other new faces before New
Years.
"Don't bother your head about race
suicide in America" he said in closing
the interview, "for there is nothing :,
it, absolutely nothing to it," and thsr
with a hearty hand shake he whisket
out through the doorway, jumped int
his sleigh, chirruped to his reindeer
and was off and away to other points

it would not take the place of chloroform or ether,
which cannot be used in many cases without dis
astrous effects Recent experiments in St Agnes
hospital in Philadelphia, however show that the
drug deadens the nervous system as completely
as any other anesthetic and that it is without
any Of the deleterious effects OF the other drugs
used for that purpose. dispatch from Phla-
delphia states that in performing an operation
for the removal of a tumor, DR. Orvile HorWtz.
the leading surgeon connected with the hospital
mentioned used scopolamine as an anesthetic,
because the patient would not have survived the
application of ether or chloroform. The drug
stood the severe test of an operation with the
electric knife, one of the most painful operations
known to surgery. During the entire operation
the patient did not show the slightest twitch, al
though the white-hot knife cut into his tissues.
One hour after the operation he awoke perfectly
fresh and without the least indication of nausea
or any of the unpleasant after effects which make
ether and chloroform Objectionable in many
cases. Since then DR.. Horwitz has used the won
derful drug in number of other operations and
in every case the success was beyond all ex-
pectations.'

The sand plains in the vicinity of Iron Noun
tain Mich. for many years considered practically
worthless for agricultural purposes have been
made wonderfully productive this year. One
man Hugh Mclaughlin, has harvested 1901 bush
els of oats grown sandy tract at the western
limits of the city. The yield better than
forty-fve bushels an acre, far in advance OF the
average state yield. At Crystal Lake, in similar
light soil, H. M Pelham this season reaped
harvest of 900 bushels of the same kind OF grain
from twenty acres, also average OF forty-hve
bushels to the acre. In addition to this crop,
about sixty tons of hay were cut by Mr.. Pelham
at Crystal Lake, and there is fine field OF pota-
toes It is being demonstrated each year that
all native crops of grass, grain and fruit native
to this zone be grown with profit in the
upper PENINSULA region larger than the states
of Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island and
Delaware combined-while root crops thrive to
an unusual degree 1t is believed to be only
question of time when the pine barrens and sand
plains will be well populated with prosperous
farmers.
short time ago it announced that new
anesthetic had been discovered in Germany,
which promised to dsplace ether, chloroform and
all other anesthetics in use by surgeons through
out the world. The drug is called ScopOlamne,
and it has been used in Germany for some little
time as an internal medicine. It's anesthetic
properties were probably discovered by accident,
for it was not compounded to produce anesthesia.
The drug is an alkaloid and possesses qualities
which make it an ideal medium for producing
either local or general aneStheSa. Soon after
it's discovery as an anesthetic it was feared that
it was not sufficiently powerful to produce anes-
thesia in the more painful surgical operations,
and while it's value came to be generally recog-
nized by those who tested it, it was feared that

Consul Mahin of Nottingham reports the dis
covery in England of new coal deposits. He says:
Recent discoveries in this neighborhood have
added materially to the known quantity OF coal
underlying British soil. Experimental sinking OPP
erations have added another coliery to the large
number now being worked in this country. The
new deposit, reached at depth of 544 yards,
now employs $40 men and is expected ere long
to yield 1000 tons day. In the nearby county
of Stafford, after several years of expensive and
apparently useless prospecting rich deposit has
been discovered and is now being developed,
which, it is calculated will yield about 100000

tons of good coal The discovery is sufficiently
important to promise great possibilities for that
district and has led to railway extensions into
localities where transportation facilities were
very meager There indications that val
liable field of ronstone lies at a greater depth
than the coal seam. Expert estimates that Brit

Commander G. l.. Dyer naval governor Of
Guam, in his annual report to the navy depart
ment says that the natives well pleased with
the sovereignty Of the United States, and that
there is no sentiment among them for independ-
ent government. The natives, be says, should
have the full benefit of their intimate connection
with the United States and should be permitted
to have their supplies from the United States free
of customs duty "The absence of line of freight
carrying craft between San Francisco, Guam and
MANILA says the governor, throws all OF the
trade of the islands into the hands of Japanese.
They have established stores, regular lines OF
prices. Under these conditions living expenses
for the natives are cruelty high
Raisns are the cornerstone of the new Eng
lish cure for consumption, which is essentially
like that Of Dr. Russell. Raisns, raisin sirup,
apples cider, pears, perry watercress, raw car
rots-these are among the staples. Potatoes are
discountenanced as being themselves liable to
disease, and cabbage because its tissue is over
laden with manure" Meat is to be used only as
stimulant like alcohol, and beer is used for It's
malt but preferably in the form of the old English
beer which was really malt tea. But one may
make choice among any number OF scien-
tifc and quite contradictory detaries.
