The ordinance is sweeping in its char

reduced to cents. while the charge to
the city for street lighting is cut from
81 per month for each arc light to IS

A RICH STRIKE.
A TweIye.inch Streak in Fourth
Of July Nine in the Kennedy
Mining District

A twelve-inch vein of rich ore has
been struck by Benton and Kennedy in
the Fourth of July mine in Kennedy
mining district that assays better than
$Sot per ton. They expect to have a
carload ready for shipment as soon az
ths roads will permit. Undoubtedly with
proper facilities for deep development
work Kennedy district would come to
the front as one of the best camps in
the State. Benton and Kennedy shipped
car of ore from the same mine last
fail that netted them 500 per ton. Oh
which very little mention was made az
the time. When you stop to CONSIDER
that it costs ~ per ton to ship ore
from the mine, either east or west from
Winnemucca one can readily see that
it takes good ore to net 500 per ton.
but with the proper reduction works On
the ground $40 ore could be worked to =
COOL profit.

gantic baskets of fruits and flowers
which. crOwding the saloons on sail

but the honored recipients, down to
the humble postal card without even
