Yerington Copper Co. Strikes
Rich Ore.

strike of high grade copper ore was
made this week on the ground OF the
Yerington Copper Company, about three
miles east of town. At present there IS
only surface showing. The ore is
chalcitate, or grey copper, and assays as
high as 4o per cent. in the red metal.
The discovery is being developed to see
how extensive and valuable it may be.
The rails to be used in the tunnel be-
ing driven by this company finally ar
rived this week, after being carried about
the country between Salt Lake and To-
nopah for the past six weeks by the rail-
road company. The company will now
push the tunnel ahead on the ledge and
sink Wine to lower level. Six men
are now employed by the company, the
ore sacks ordered have arrived and ore is
being extracted and sacked for shipment
to Salt Lake.

RAILROAD RATE
LEGISLATION.

litical Clothes" and in nearly all
of his speeches since his return
from Europe he has accused the
Republican party of borrowing
from the Democratic platform in
his recommendation for railroad
rate legislation. The peerless
leader" of the Democratic party
need not worry about this matter.
1t is true that the Democratic ma
tional platform had a plank de-
handing more stringent rate leg
islation, but if Mr.. Bryan will re-
member, President Roosevelt's
first recommendation on this sub
iect was in his first annual mes
sage to Congress in 1901, and has
been in all his messages since that
date.
But President Roosevelt made
no claim to originality i'll this rec
ommendation, any more than he
gave credit to the Democratic
party and Mr.. Bryan for patent
right on it. The President simply
followed in the Republican path
wav that has been a highway of
rate legislation for twenty years
past. The original act creating
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion was passed by Republican
Congress nearly twenty years ago,
and there has not been a Repub-
lican Congress since that time
which has not amended the act to
make it more effective.
Railway rate regulation is a
policy of the United States gov
eminent. and will be as long as
the Republican party controls the
government. 1t is simply devel-
opment Of the old Republican
policy that this is a nation and not
simply federation of States; that
the federal government has the
power TO control and regulate in
terstate commerce, as it has to i'm
prove waterways and construct
public works. When Mr.. Bryan
goes back into the history of these
questions he will find that until
quite recently his party, if the
Democratic party is his party, has
protested that the federal govern
ment had no power to do those
things, and that the Republican
party has not only claimed that
the government had such power,
but by legislation it has given the
power to the Executive to enforce
this policy All the railroad rate
legislation now on the statute
books was placed there under Re
publican administrations, when
the Republican party had ma
jority in Congress and assumed
full responsibility for legislation
Mr.. Bryan may not be conscious
of the fact, but in all his preach
ing on the railroad question, prior
to the last year, the clothes he
thought were made to his meas
ure were simply appropriated out
of the Republican wardrobe.
Corporations that are handled
honestly and fairly, so far from
being an evil, are a natural bust
ness evolution, and make for the
general prosperity of our land.
We do not wish to destroy corpo-
rations. but we do wish to make
them subserve the public good

Mimicry of Color and Form Common
Among Insects.

Mimicry of Color and Form Common
Among Insects.
An oficial of the National museum
at Washington who has made many
trips abroad in the interest of that in
stitution states that In South Ameri-
can forests the butterflies and the birds
are equally brilliant in their colors, but
that the butterflies, being weaker. fall
q prey to the birds. One very bright
hued species Of butterfly. however, Is
not disturbed by the birds on account
of the disagreeable odor that it emits.
Singularly enough, some other groups
of butterflies, which resemble in color
the species just described. also escape
persecution by the birds, although they
emit no odor. It is evident that the
similarity of color deceives the birds.
and thus serves as a shield for the but
terfies. This sort of mimicry Of color
and form, which naturalists call PRO
tective resemblance" Is not very un-
common among insects.
Another form of protective resem-
blnnce" which exhibits much contriv-
ance and skill Is sometimes found
among birds. Some birds hide their
eggs among stones that resemble the
eggs in form and color. The little bot
tie tit' in England weaves a bottle
shaped nest out of moss. lichens and
spiders webs. and when placed in
tree or bush the nest so closely resem-
bles its surroundings that 1t can hardly
be detected. The color and appearance

particular tree in which It 10 placed.

In these chambers died
Oliver Goldsmith
On the 4th OF Apl., lT74
and q medallion of the noet.


Goldsmith's, however, was seldom q
lonely figure. and he gathered around
! him at Brick court all the wit Of the
metropolis OF his day. In 1765, on the
strength of the success of The Good
Naturcd Man" and the fact that he
was making some $500 year, "Goldie''
expended E4O0 on chambers "up two
pair right" and fitted them with snowy
carpets, gilt mirrC $ and furniture eI-
travagantly upholstered In blue velvet
Thus equipped, he embarked on a
course Of expenditure in which fine
clothes for himself, grand dinners to a
literary coterie and pretty trines for
venal beauties all bore costly parts
johnson, DR.. Arne, Percy Reynolds,
Francis and Bickerstafr were among
the frequent visitors ut Brick court
but their arrival WAS not the cause Of
80 much concern to Goldsmiths coten-
ants rs that of some other of the poets
guests. 1t was the little supper parties
to Goldsmith's young friends of both
sexes that drew from the studious
Blackstone, hard Mt work on his famous
Commentaries" in the rooms below
'oioie D, Ditter pfOtobtS against IDA
racket Of his 'reveling neighbor"
Both THE Traveller" and "The Vicar
OF Wakefield" were published soon aft
er Goldsmith moved into Brick court,
but the income they brought him was
insufficient to Withstand the drain mads
on his resources by his extravaganza,
his generosity and his taste for gam
bling. Owing t2,0o0 unable to obtain
further advances from his booksellers
and seeing no way out of his embar-
rassmauts, Goldsmith broke down In
spirits and health. He had to leave
those windows from which he used to
watch the rocks in the grove, which
once stood where now Is Elm court,
and, as he wrote, 'often amused my
self with observing their plan Of
policy" Goldsmith returned thither,
nevertheless, to die, and though he was
carried to his last resting place through
rows Of weeping women the benches
Of the Temple appear to have valued
him so little that the very place Of his
burial became forgotten. Fur that
neglect the tablet came as ta.dy but
welcome reparation.-London Tribune.

POWER OF PERFUMES.
The Way Various scents Act on tn

rhe Way Various scents Act on tho
Nerves md Brain.
Nearly all perfumes have ant1septic
qualities and are valuable in keeping
away infection.
The perfumes which are the most
agreeable to the sense are not always
the most helpful to the nerves. Am
bergris, for instance, is positively Of
fensive to many, yet 1t Is said to pos
bess wonderful power Of clearing the
brain and driving away the blues. On
the other hand, altar of roses, with the
suggestion of glowing suns and gor-
geous eastern colors, predisposes to
tears.
A faint odor Of musk acts as tonic,
for which the best antidote is the odoF
of sandalwood. The fragrance of cit.
ron Is as soothing to nervous folk ~
the sound of faron music.
The scent Of orange flowers is so do
pressing to the action of the heart that
1t is not safe for any one with disease
OF that organ to inhale 1t for any
length Of time. Reviving perfumes
come from herbaceous plants largely,
from the odors of mignonette, rose
mary and lavender and soothe the
nerves.
The perfumes of lilies, jasmine and
acacia are pleasant and soothing to a
healthy sense, though delicate nerves
cannot enjoy them even In their garden

A Timely Epitsph.

The following is copy of the cpl.
taph of matchmaker, written by HIM
self, in which he is compared to a
watch that had run down:
''Here lies, in horizontal position,
the outside case of George Ritter,
whose abiding place in that line was
an honor to his profession. Integrity
was his handspring, and Prudence
the regulator of all the actions Of his
life. Humane, generous and liberal,
his hand never stopped till he had re-
lieved distress. He never went wrong
except when set a.going by people
who did not know his key. Even
then he was easily set right again.
He had the art of dispensing of his
time so we'll that his hours glided by
in one continual round of pleasure
and delight, till an unlucky minute
put an end to his existence. His case
rests and molders and decays beneath
the turf, but his good works will
never die"
