MAKING A CHEF.
10 Takes Many Years of Hard Work
and Training.

"When you reflect upon what a chef
goes through to complete his education
1t is no wonder that his services COM
mand high prices" said the culinary
king of a restaurant.
"The chef" he continued. "begins as
boy, as apprentice to q master. For
several years he works under the veg
etable cook. He learns how to make
mashed potatoes that look like white
roses, how to cook and to arrange all
the vegetables, from the trufIles down,
In a hundred fine and beautiful ways.
He gets no salary. He gets only his
board.
"Then for year he studies raw
meats. He learns how to select them
and how to cut them up. He can tell
at glance. for instance, the genuine
salt meadow mutton from the false.
Along with this raw meat course goes
also q study Of fish and of game and
Of poultry-how to stuff dress, lard,
truss, and so on
'NeXt, for year, at a small salary,
he stands before the range. learning
how to broil. fry, roast and bake.
'Ie now knows the foundation Of
his art and is admitted into the pres
ence Of the chef himself-only assist
ants have taught him so far. The chef
teaches him to make soups, pastries.
ices and the more complicated pud-
dings and souffiees. Three or four
years is none too long a time to study
here.
''Ten years Of hard work should turn
a quick apprentice into n good chef.
Such n chef without difficulty earns
from 500 a week up to $50. If he
gave half as much time to the bar, the
church or medicine he would earn
thrice as much."-New York Press.

4 SHOOTING AT
MANHATTAN

A shooting affray took place on the
streets of Manhattan last Tuesday
morning, but no one was hurt owing to
the poor craftsmanship of the gun
weilder. Trouble was on between be-
tween a man named Sid Todd and a
gambler known as Shorty" Burns.
Their difficulty reached a climax in
front of the San Juan club, when Todd
pulled pistol and took two shots at
Burns, but both went wide of the
mark. Immediately after the second
shot was fired, Burns, who did not
seem to be bit put out or frustrated
by the fulisade, took of his hat and
waving it about his head shouted:
"Shoot and be damned; you can't
hit anything anyway"
The supreme audacity of the chal-
longing fellow took all the spunk out OF
the gun-weilder and instead of making
another show of his poor marksman-
ship, turned on his heel and made
tracks toward East Manhattan.

REVEILLE-TONOPAH
MINING COMPANY

w. w. Booth, of the BONANZA, and
Emil Anderson, of Reveille, have or
ganized company to be known as the
Reveille-Tonopah Mining company to
operate group of mines on North
mountain in Reveille district. The fol-
lowing officers were elected: w. w.
Booth, president; H. Reischke, vice
president; Wesley Stewart, secretary,
and H. A. McKim, treasurer. Emil
Anderson will be superintendent and
manager.
This company has an excellent show
ing on the grounds and all assays so far
have averaged $50 ounces of silver to
the ton. In the mine the same charac-
ter of ore exists as that found in the
mine which Frank Kitzkie and Henry
Anderson of Reno opened up four
miles north of the Southwestern New
ada Mines company's properties which
has been recently acquired by the
Schwab syndicate.

DECISION AGAINST
JEROMEP.PORTER
Involves Points Of Law Of later
est to the Mining World

In San Francisco on Monday last
Circuit Judge Morrow rendered verbal
decision in the case of Jerome P. Porter
VS.. the Tonopah North Star Tunnel and
Development company, sustaining Dis
trict Judge Hawley, who had decided
in favor Of the defendant corporation.
1t was three years ago that this case
first came up for hearing in the courts
at Carson City and it has been con-
tested ever since. The dispute in
wolves the right to certain claims on
Mt. Oddie, just above the Mizpah mine.
The Dave Lewis Hope claim overlaps
the. .Ivanpah claim and this formed the
basis of the contest. An adverse claim
and protest against the application of
the Tonopah North Star Tunnel and
Development company for patent to
this ground was filed by Jerome P. Por-
ter, who had secured the right to the
Dave Lewis Hope claim. Judge Haw-
ley decided that the ground in dispute
belonged to the Tonopah North Star
Tunnel and Development company and
this decision was upheld by Judge
Morrow.
The Tonopah North Star Tunnel and
Development company was represented
by Campbell, Metson & Brown and Key
Pittman, attorneys of this city, and Mr..
Porter by Garoutte & Goodwin. The
progress Of this case has been watched
closely, especially by those interested
in mining, on account of the points of
law involved and the great value
of the property.

SHOT BUILDING
FULL OF HOLES

A man named J. c. Duggins got q
bowling jag aboard last Wednesday
night and began to raise a disturbance
in the Peoples saloon on Water street.
Tony Gardella, the proprietor, finally
elected the fellow, who went forthwith
to his room across the street and se-
cured his Savage rifle. Returning with
the weapon he stood in the middle of
the street and fired four shots at ran
dom into the front of the saloon before
he could be arrested and disarmed.
There were probably twenty people in
the saloon at the time and the fact that
nobody was killed or badly injured is
simply marvellous. Duggins is in Jail
to await his examination on a serious
charge. He undoubtedly realizes the
fact that he is in bad fix as he has
already employed an attorney to defend
him. He put up cash bail in the sum
of 5000 but when the case was called
today Duggins was conspicuous by his
absence, SO his bail was declared
forfeited.

STREAK OF
PURE GOLD
Found In the Mustang Mine at
Manhattan Wednesday

An exceedingly rich strike was made
in the Mustang Extension Mining COM
pany's property at Manhattan last
Wednesday evening. T. A. A. Sieg-
friedt, the president of the company,
brought quantity of specimens to
town which for richness exceeds any
thing we have ever seen. AS matter
of fact, there was more gold than
quartz, and about $4OO worth of speci-
mems was picked out of one spot with
a nail file.
The find was mere accident; it was
like picking up so many 500 gold pieces
from the dust over which many people
had Travelled. About dusk of the day
above stated Mr.. Siegfriedt and the
foreman, Theodore Gruss, went to a
place about 40 feet from the working
shaft, where excavation had been GO
ing on for the erection of a whim, and
sat down to check up on bill of lum-
Der. While thus engaged Gruss was
idly handling handful of pebbles he
had picked up from the ground where
he sat when he discovered a piece of
free gold. Further examination dis
closed the fact that the entire handful
of rock was lousy" with the yellow
metal. There in little quartz stringer
about an inch and half in width was
more of the stuff and they began to
dig it out with the nail file. This
streak, it appears, ran at right angles
with the vein proper upon which de-
velopment work was being done. An
extra shift of men was at once put on
to follow up this stringer, but up to
the time of our going to press we have
not learned the results.

j. W. Clark Tells of Nevada
Mines.

j. W. Clark, vice-president of the
firm of Kirby, Lamb & Stoneham of
Tonopah, spent few hours of his time
today on his way to Rhyolite, where his
firm is interested in mining properties.
He reports some splendid recent results
from prospecting upon some of the
claims in which he is interested in Man
haitian. The Manhattan Giant par
tlcularly, is showing some rich ore at
the surface, some assays lately made
give an average of over $9S, and over
Tour feet at the bottom of the shaft,
now down 80 feet, going $27.S5 to the
Ton. This firm has recently bought the
Forked Stick claim, which adjoins the
breyfogle group and Thanksgiving
FRACTION just next to the Mustang and
Bronco, und has already placed a large
olock of the stock in Chicago. The
molly Bonanza group, now called the
manhattan Extension, on Litigation
hlll, is showing up well and the COM
pahy is also interested in the contest
involving the famous Columbia claim.
According to Mr.. Clark Silver Peak is
showing as good results for the work
peing done as any district in the State.
lynch & o3Meara are pushing work on
eneir properties with every promise of
a bonanza, and another group the Blair
property, was recently sold for $7OO, 900.
Inc surveyors are already in the field
running the line for the railroad to Sill
yer Peak from point on the Tonopah
road near Coaldale and the rails will be
Ia Iaid as fast as IS found practicable.

OHIO-ONOPAH
PROPERTIES

On Thursday last, F. M. Kirk. Dud-
ley Baldwin and J. T. Coppock, all
directors of the Ohio-Tonopah Mining
company and residents of Cleveland,
Ohio, arrived in Tonopah after tour
of the mining camps to the south of
this place. Among other mines in
which they are interested and which
they visited was the Manhattan-B Butler
group. This property consists of 81
claims situated between Manhattan and
Round Mountain. The formation re-
sembles that of Bullfrog in part and
also that of Round Mountain, and has
a contact Of granite and slate.
Water is very important factor in
the southern mines of Nevada, and at
this property there is already an abund-
ance of it for all purposes, and since it
is only 40 feet to bedrock very strong
flow is anticipated. Another very inn
portant feature lies in the fact that
there is sufficient timber on the prop
erty to provide fuel and mining timbers
for years to come.
But very little development work has
as yet been done; in fact, just a suf-
ficient amount to meet the require
ments of the law relative to the hold
ing of mining claims, but in that little
enough has shown up to thoroughly
satisfy the company as to the merits of
the claims. A large number of assays
taken from groupings were very satis-
factory and very rich samples have been
found in many places. Many applica-
tions for leases have been received by
the company.
The company has contracted for one
tunnel of 500 feet, which, with drifting
on 12-foot ledge running nearly north
and south, win intersect five ledges
running nearly easterly and westerly.
These east and west lodges will average
from nine to sixty feet in width. They
are all easily defined on the surface for
distance of from 1000 to 5000 feet.
With the completion of this tunnel
these veins will be cut at vertical
depth of from $50 to 900 feet. The
company has also contracted for $50
foot tunnel to be run on the south or
opposite side of what is known as B-ey-
fogle canyon. This tunnel will cut
three strong lenges at depth of from
400 to 1900 feet. The groupings of all
these ledges indicate shipping ore be-
yond the peradventure of doubt.
This company is a very strong, re-
liable one, and whatever it undertakes
is pushed through in business-like
way to finish. consequently it will not
be long before we will be able to give
further facts in regard to the proposed
work as above outlined.
