SOCIETY DANA
ENTERTAIN

Each year, upon the visit of the
"Oyer President the Dania society
gives a social party, to which their
families and few guests are invited.
Many have been the good times af-
forded, but the event of last Saturday
evening far eelipsed any that have
here to fore been held
After conducting the business of tn
evening, and hearing the instructions
and remarks of Over President Robert
Nelson, of Reno, the members to-
gether with Il goodly number of
visiting brothers from the Reno lodge,
repaired from the lodge room to Val
halla hall where they were joined by
their families and invited guests and
the good time commenced. Dancing
was the order of the evening and
Judging from the many expressions
of delight was throngly enjoyed by
all. The music by the Gardneryille
orchestra was excellent, and by the
time 12o'cloek arrived the delighted
but hungry crowd were throughly
prepared to do ample justice to the
many good things that had been pre-
pared for them at the Gardneryille
hotel. After satisfying their wants
and listening to the many excellent
toasts that were offered by different
members of the lodge and which we're
applauded to the echo, the crowd again
adjourned to the hall and the rounds
of merriment continued.
At this time Mr.. Nelson, the Over
President, who Is an accomplished
musician, took charge of the music
and for few hours the old time
Danish dances held full sway, and the
enjoyment afforded to theold and young
alike, would have dried the tears
of the most disconsolate.
II was with many regrets that the
approach of morning forced the as
sembled crowd to again return to the
stearn realities of life. and leave so
much joy behind. But as all good
things must have an ending, so with
this, after bidding each other farewell
and prosperous life, the curtain was
dropped upon the scene and one of the
most enjoyable events of the season
was brought to close.

final PLANS ARE
Being MADE

County Commissioners Hellwinkel
and shaeht, accompanied by corps of
surveyors, left ,Gardenrville Wednes-
day morning for the scene of the new
road near Hoye canyon, where they
will make definate plans relating to
the proposed road. Commissioner
Hellwinkel informs us that much care
will be exerted i'll selecting the route
in order to select the most feasible one
and as soon as the surveyors hand in
their reports and one is accepted by
the board, bids will be called for and
the construction work will commence.
The commissioners are desirious of
completing this new road at the earli-
est possible moment as they realize.
as as do many private individuals in
this section, the good that will ulti-
nately be derived from its construc-
ton. 1t is. the only possible way To
insure the Mono county freight to con-
tinue to come this way Much effort
is being made.by.t the Mason VALLEY
people to get this trade to Wabuska,
as they fully realize the vast benefits
that would be derived thereby. How
ever, Notwithstanding their concen-
trated efforts to capture this trade
very little can be accomplished by
them as with the completion of this
new stretch of wagon road and the
railrord terminus at this point it will
make Carson valley the natural outlet
to the rich mining section south of us.

reservoir sites along the course of the
river makes all this very feasible,
and it but awaits the capital

this the greatest farming community
in the state The land i'll the valley
has thribbled in value in the last ten
years, so that with continued prosper
ity in the next 90 years land will have
unheard of values placed upon it
There are few valleys like ours, and
there won't be enough to go around.
Today there is room-room means
opportunity choice of land, profit by
increase of value. The situation is
unprecedented and the wise man will
think it over carefully.
1t Will only be matter of time
when the large land owners in this
valley will divide up their holdings
into small tracts of from 80 to 30
acres each. This will also offer
many new homes aud mean much to-
ward the development of the county.
Now let Us pass on to the many
other forms of industry that present
themselves, such as Sugar factories
Tanneries, Flour Mills and many
others, which this valley with its
abundance of opportunities presents,
and which with the vast amount of
power which could be generated on the
Carson river, could be operated with
less expense than the majority of
these institutions in the world.
With the advent of the railroad we
will have commercial advantages at
our very door. 1t but awaits the
spirit and vim of Douglas county's
citizens to make this the greatest
agricultural and manufacturing center
for its size in the west.

SONORA SETTINGS.

The Toledo smelter on the 1a- qui river, has blown in again, and it is reported that very satis- factory run has been made.
 Mir. Max Marks of Hermosillo, is developing two very promising mines near Llanos de Gro, on the Altar district. One is named Fl Globo, the other Reforma.
 The Ohio Mining x Exploration Company is prosecuting develop ment with vigor upon the Carlo tita mine, near San Javier. A trial shipment of ore has been made recently to the Fl Paso smelter.
 At La Colorado the Gold Bull lion Mining Go. are sinking a shaft to cut the Colorado vein in the ground to the north of the mine where the vein crops. The shaft is now down about 400 feet
 The Yaquis are said to be using copper bullets, and cartridges of their own manufacture. The bull lets have hole bored in the end, and that causes them to spread when they strike bone. shatter- ing it terribly.
 The Ubalama Mining company is developing the mine from which the company takes its name. It is considered one of the best mines in the San Javier region. Frank Wiemar, John Miller and Jack Cleveland are interested in the en- terprise.
 Near Zubiate Ramon Esquer of La Colorado, is developing a very rich ledge, carrying ores high grade in silver. The ledge is two and one-half to three feet in width, with a very rich pay streak six inches in width, the rock from which shows rich chlorides and bromides with much native silver. A shaft has been sunk eighty-one feet, showing that kind of ore all the way down. The vein is strong, we'll defined, with every indication of permanence. It is a handsome shipping proposition, and with depth may develop into something big. The property is named Las Viboras, and includes ten perte- nencias.
 The San Javier Mines Company is developing the Buena Vista mine, at San Javier, and making a very satisfactory showing. They have about three thousand feet of tunnel work, at eight different points, most of them running in on the ledge, developing a very handsome body of ore, which is blocked out and ready for stoping and shipment. When the railway building up the Yaqui river reaches the vicinity shipments will begin, and a reduction plant will be erected to handle the ores of lower grade, of which there are great quantities. The rock is a high grade copper carrying iron and copper, with good values in silver. They have sold great deal of the low grade rock at the Toledo smell ter, which used it for huxing pur- poses, the iron contained making it valuable for that purpose. The officers of the company are k. J. Yard, president; E. M. Riggs, vice. president, and J. F. Williams, general manager. Mir. Williams

sasinsss Rsvivins from the Ysqot
 Scare.

THE OAsts man was In Sonora last week, visiting Guaymas. Ia Colorado and IIermosillo; and lie finds that confidence is returning and business improving generally the Yaqui scare being about over, proof of which is seen in the fact that wood cutters are returning to work in the hills, to supply with fuel the large mining companies at La Colorado and Minas Prietas, as was their custom before the Yaqui outbreak, which not only stopped the cutting but prevented the teamsters from hauling it in from the eranches. Now all is changed and work Is being resumed. At La Colorado three new mining com panies have commenced operations and diamond drilling and shaft sinking are going on with full vigor. Large consignments of sup plies and machinery are going for ward to interior mining camps; and since the first of September that prosperous little railway, the Torres& Prietas has been doing more hauling than ever. Colonel F. H. Seymour, the we'll known pro- prietor of the railway, is again at home in Torres, and is giving his personal attention to it's operation once again. He has put upon the road from the terminus of the rail- way at Represo to points beyond regular trains of mule teams, and freight is being contracted and carried to all points. Represo has an abundant supply of water the entire year, and freighters can get all they want for their animals. The railway has there also large and commodious warehouse where all supplies and machinery are stored without charge until they are transferred to the wagon trains that are to transport them to their various destinations. All the teamsters and wagonmasters are among the best and most reliable in Sonora.
 Represo station is thirty-fve kilometers from Torres station, on the Sonora railway, and this offers evidently the best and quickest route for the miners and mer- chants of the interior to reach their various camps. Last month the Cieneguita Copper Company shipped by this route to their camp beyond the Yaqui river, more than one hundred tons of machinery;and the Yaqui River Smelling & Re- fning Company at Toledo, the lat ter hauling over this route all it's coke for smelling purposes, the Anaconda, Animas, and various other companies at San Javier in- cluding John Miller, Wyman and Carver, are shipping by this line; while the ores from Carmen Or tega's Nina Mexico, and his Sa- cramento mine, near La Dura, come out this way, en route to the American smelters; while the vari- ous companies about Matape, and La Barranca, (including Las Cote ras) Nina Grande and the Bar ranca coal fields all freight by this route.
 All the places mentioned which had stopped shipping and sus- pended operations on account of the Yaqui troubles, have resumed work, and shipments are now in full tide again, which is ample
