Trouble in Council BIuRs.

CONSIDERABLE trouble has been experienced
at the Council Bluffs School for the Deaf
this year in getting material to the in
stitution. The contractor who is doing
the work there has zheen forced at times
to have brick hauled by team from ON. a.
In order to keep a supply on hand So

expenses are such that the contractor will
make no profit out Of his work there.
The building at Council Bluffs is now
ready for the roof. which will be put on
in few days
At Glenwood the work of LAYING the
foundation for the custodial building for
boys has just started, It is expected that
the foundation probably will be laid be-

work.

The Fort Dodge site offered for the state
tuberculosis hospital gives promise OF

While it is probable that the winter has
so far progressed that little toward the
building can be done before early next
year. the fact that a solution to the site
question is in sight is something. The
Board OF Control has visited every section
of the state. The Fort Dodge site offered
has not been formally selected and there
is no surety that it will be as yet but II
is understood that it more nearly con-

auditor IN Buena Vista county discovered
when he came to have the ballots printed
that the name was too long to go in the

up the secretary OF state by long distance

there was a hurried consultation in the

Stove Explodes.

Mrs. Mccue, the wife of prospector
living in tent on the Bovard ranch,
at the upper end of town, met with what
came near being serious accident early
Thursday evening. She started to build
a fire in stove in the tent, and, owing
to a shortage of fuel, her husband had
gathered up lot of rubbish which she
used. Among this rubbish there was
evidently an explosive of some kind, for
it had no sooner been thrown into the
stove than an explosion took place which
completely demolished the stove, scatter
ing it into many pieces, some of which
struck Mrs. McCue in the abdomen and
on the hand. One piece cut in under
the ribs and narrowly missed a vital
spot. Mrs. McCue is now under ply
sician's care and no serious results are
entertained from the wounds received
in the accident.

Strike on Nevada Colorado
! Ground.

A strike of excellent copper ore was
made Thursday in the shaft being sunk
on the ground of the Nevada Colorado
Co., about one-half mile east of the new
townsite of Bellview, and mile north
of the Ludwig mine. At depth of IS
feet in the shaft seven-foot ledge of
oxide ore has been cut, which carries
high values in copper In another shaft
being sunk, several hundred feet from
shaft No. l, at practically the same
depth, four -and-a- half-foot ledge of the
same character of ore has been encoun-
tered. This property is only prospect
as yet, which was taken over few weeks
ago by Colorado Springs people, and
they are highly elated with the discov-
cries made at such an early stage of de-
velopment work.

Opportunities FOR
CAPITAL.

Yerington and Mason Valley
offer to the men of means today
some of the greatest opportuni-
ties for investment that have ever
been presented in any communi-
ty in any State in the Union.
With her great expanse of fertile
agricultural land and the great
mineral belts to the east and west,
Mason Valley offers to- the home.
seeker one of the best opportuni-
ties known. Seldom is it that the
condition prevails where a great
agricultural section exists in such
close proximity to great mineral
sections. 1t has been demonstrated
that our copper properties are
good for fifty years-they may be
good for one hundred years-and
it will be but few months now
before such activity will take place
in mining in this district as was
never dreampt of. A ess
There is not the remotest doubt
that railroad will extend through
this valley next year. 1t will
traverse the valley over route
that will be beneficial to the great
est section of land, and will also
reach the mines on the west, and,
later on, those to the east. With
all these conditions staring us in
the face, is it wonder that we
feel like urging little more en-
terprise and cooperative action
among our citizens and valley peo-
pie for the benefit of all concerned?
Inside of flew years-two or
three at the most---this valley
should have population of 5000
people; Yerington should be an
incorporated town of over 1000
people and the central point for
all business transacted for many
miles around. The time has come
when we cannot lie on our oars
and drift with the stream. There
are others who are pulling in the
opposite direction and unless we
also head our craft up stream we
are liable to 60 over the falls be-
low.
There are SO many openings for
capital here that space prevents
enumeration. That we are going
ahead some is evidenced by the
fact that more building has been
done in the past year than ever
before, and more will be done next
year, twice over. Real estate val
ues on Main street have advanced
from Sc to So per foot year ago
to SIS and $40 per foot at the
present time. The business in the
town has Increased over 100 per
cent. in the past year, which shows
healthy condition of things. No
man who invests in any kind of
property or enterprise at present
prices can make a mistake. An
in town lots in Yering-
ton will make money for you while
you sleep.
