GREAT INVENTOR AT HOME.
\ Visit to Thomas A. Edison-Heuaa and Surroundings Not . Bit
 Like the Man.

To one who knows anything at all of Edison, the first glimpse of his house and it's surroundings comes with a shock of surprise, says Woman's Home Companion. Who would have suspected that this most democratic of men would have chosen for himself en. vironments so essentially arist0. cratic? He lives in the heart of . splendid park, patterned after the English idea of vigorous ex. clusiveness, it's getes jealousy guarded by a lodgekeeper.
 The interior of the house is in keeping with the atmosphere of the park without quite unlike Edison. The reception.room was utterly different from what l ex. pected. The admirably draped curtains, the tables and chairs ar. ranged win an eye to artistic ef- feet, were not of Edison's choos- ing. He cares too little for the luxuries of life. This was his wife's work; it was all so wom. anly.
 heard quick footsteps behind me, and Edison appeared, greet ing me cordially and unaffectedly. He was dressed in the queerest of costumes-a long blouse that reached to his heels, evidently of his own pattern, serviceable and work-worn.
 "Come along into the labora tory" he said.
 So I followed him through the dining-room and the "den" into the laboratory that he has fitted up for himself in his home. There I found his little boy, his kshirt-sleeves rolled up, his face md hands smeared like his fathers. They had been making various compounds of which lamp black was the chief constituent. "So you work on Sunday, too?" Edison winked confidentially. *You see, Mrs. Edison is sway. ! can do as I like"
 That brought back to me story that I had once heard from friend of his-a story of how he works night after night in his labora- tory, utterly absorbed in his ex. periments. Midnight comes and goes, the gray dawn creeps in, and still finds him bending over his test-tubes and retorts. until at last Mrs. Edison appears and fondly leads him away to sleep.
 looked around the laboratory. This at least was his room. There were Bunsen burners, mortars and pestles, glass rods, watch crystals, bottles of chemicals scattered about in bewildering profusion. I watched him and his boy while they worked, the boy listening with rapt attention to the teachings of his father.

$500 FOR LETTERS
 ABOUT THE SOUTHWEST.

The Western Trail magazine offers six prizes aggregating in value $500 in railroad transporta- tion for letters from residents of Arkansas, East Colorado, Mis- souri, Kansas, Indian Territory, Oklahoma, Texas and New Mex ico.
 It wants letters that will in- duce energetic and ambitious men and women to settle in the great and growing Southwest and there engage in farming, cattle raising, dairying, fruit growing and similar pursuits.
 To accomplish the purpose which it has in view, the Vest ern Trail offers the following prizes in railroad transportation for the six letters which, in the opinion of a competent judge, shall be deemed best suited to it's requirements:
 First prize, $100 in railroad transportation.
 Second prize, $75 in railroad transportation.
 Third prize, $50 in railroad transportation.
 Fourth prize, 1925 in railroad transportation.
 Fifth prize, $25 in railroad transportation.
 Sixth prize, $25 in railroad transportation.
 THE CONDITIONS ARE EASY.
 Letters should deal with tn writer's experiences since he set- tied in the Southwest. They should tell how much money he had when he rrived, what he did when he first came. what measure of success has since crowned his efforts and what he thinks of that portion of country in which he is located.
 Letters should not be less than 300 nor more than 1, 1900 words in length, and will be used for the purpose of advertising the South west. Letters are desired not only from farmers and farmers wives, but also from merchants, school teachers, clergymen; from everyone who has a story to tell and who knows how to tell it. Poetical contributions are not wanted.
 All cannot win prizes, but by their contributions they can as- sist the Western Trail in it's ef- forts to colonize and upbuild the Southwest.
 Contest closes June 30, 1905. Prizes will be awarded as soon thereafter as results can be de- termined. Address the Western Trail, 736-744 Van Buren street, Chicago, III.

Fish Lake District.

f. c. Rabbit. the mining engineer,
returned home from this section some
sixty miles northwest the first of the
week. Mr.. Rabbit has been prospect
ing through the camp for the past
month, and speaks very favorably of it.
He said: Il made a number Of loca-
tions and expect to prospect them this
fall. Large dykes OF iron carbonate ores
carrying gold run through the country.
John Mckane recently purchased the
Lookout mine near Dyer p~ostoffice, and
it is reported that a 20 stamp mill will
be erected. This is the mine of the
camp at present, and gives employment
to eight or ten men. There is plenty Of
water and timber" 4 number of pros
pectors QUILTED for the district in Gold

Panamint.

A group OF mines lying Is miles south
east of Ballarat were bonded Friday to
eastern parties for $500 600, and other
properties are being bonded. Several
new and rich strikes are being made.
Lately a ledge over 100 feet in width,
averaging over $12 per ton, was discov-
cred. The whole of the panamint range
appears to be a network of mineral
veins, carrying both precious and base
metals. The valleys on either side have
rich deposits of borax, salt and other
saline minerals hat will pay handsome
", and which, now that attention is
being paid to them, will be taken and
worked.-Times-IndeX.

Hotel Nevada.

Work on the Hotel Nevada situated
at the northeast corner of Crook and
Columbia is now being pushed, and if
the contract is fulfilled to the letter it
will be open and ready for business by
August LIST. The construction has been
delayed on account of the scarcity OF the
kind of building material required, but
lumber and all other material required
is now coming in faster than it IS used.
The building will be ready for furniture
by the 18th OF next month. The hotel
will be a credit to the metropolis of
southwestern Nevada, and will be the
finest hotel in the entire state. There
will be TO guest rooms, and every APP
pointment OF the hostelry will be mod
ern. The building will cost the neat
sum Of $50 1000, and it will require an
additional $40. 900 to furnish it. w. H.
Boyer and Mrs. NJ. f. King, the ~lessees,
are experienced hotel people and cater
ers. Goldtield needed the best hotel in
the state and is gong to have it.

Indian Springs.

John Houston, one of the first pros
pectors To locate at Indian Springs, stu
ated : miles west OF Ida, vas in town
the first OF the week, and reports that a
great deal OF prospecting is being done
in that locality, and with generally fav-
orable results. From 80 to 40 men are
in camp all the time, and a number OF
shallow shafts have been put down on
the lodges that vary in width at the sur
face from two to forty feet. These
lodges outcrop and values in gold u all
the way from a few dollars to over 800.
The ore carries gold and lead values also.
Mr.. Houston said: THE camp needs a
stamp and concentrating mill, and as
there is an abundance of water and
wood, the cost OF power to u it would
not be great. There is some talk Of a
company being organized to erect the
mill. The ore to supply it Is already
in sight

Hard Luck Story.

Two years ago Russell T. Joy of New
York City came to Goldfeld and located
Is claims right in the heart of the best
portion of the district-ground which
has produced millions in the past Is
months. lie had portions of the Jumbo,
Combination, Florence, January and
other good producers in their locality
staked. He liked the country all right
but neglected to do the necessary ass
essment work and returned to New
York. All these claims were relocated.
Perhaps he was a little too selfish in
wanting to own 800 acres or perhaps it
was due to the fact that his bank ac-
count was not large enough. He
watched the progress of the camp with
great interest and n year ago he re-
turned, looked over his old locations, his
no more, and started out to make some
more locations. lie staked five claims
neal the present depot site had them
surveyed and recorded and did the
necessary amount of work this time to
comply with the law. He returned a
few days ago and found that the loca-
tons made last year were valuable
now.
Some years ago Mr.. Joy resided in the
west, where he was interested in min
ing and real estate. For the past five
years, however, he has occupied the
unique position of private organist and
master of ceremonies of "Whitehall,"
Palm Beach, Florida, the winter home
OF Mr.. and Mrs. Henry NJ. Flagler. Mr..
Flagler is the Standard oil magnate.
His duties occupy him only four months
OF the year. The summer he has been
devoting to mining and business inter-
ests in Nevada. This year the hustling
young man is backed by some wealthy
capitalists of the east.
"Whitehall,'' where Mr.. Joy lives in
the winter, is one of the palaces of the
world. 1t cost the standard oil mag
nate upward OF 81 ,OOO, 900.

OF the boys dog Mr. Arnes, he stepped quickly
back to avoid the rain, exclaimed: We'll! Where
earth did you come from?"
But the puppy, moved doubtless by the same
impulse to avoid further wetting, slipped inside
without answering the question, and with the air
OF saying, YES, thank you, shall in and rest
awhile, since you press so,' he ambled across

yellow-brown coat Of short stiff hair, marked by a
dark stripe running down his backbone. Nature had

On the morning OF the equinoctial storm, two years

suspiciously, haps it

laughed and said:
Well, he can't go

such a storm, so he'd
better grow as fast as
possible and fill it up;

So the little wan

thought MAN Friday would be a suitable name.
