SALT LAKERS KNOW
IMPORTANCE OF CAMP
YeringtOn Overlooked by Pa
perS of Nevada, but Utahns
Are Wide Awake.

There never was time in the his.
tory Of Nevada when the prospects
were brighter nor business better III
all sections of the old State and Mason
valley and Gcriugton arc not TO he eX.
ceptcd In this statement. says the Lyme
County Times Every branch of bust.
ncs being carried on in our little town
is proving a yertable mint to the con-
luctors OF business houses, saloons, no.
tells, blacksmith shops, etc. The min
ing industry in this immediate vicinity
and further south has brought this
wonderful increase of business; and
this industry is only in It's infancy In
this district.
1t is true that our district has re.
ceived but little advertising on the ont
side. Few of the State papers have
had anything TO say about our re-
SOURCES and prospects, but some of
the Salt Lake papers have gwen the
camp and It's surrounding properties
very favorable mention, This is be-
cause many Salt Lake people are be
coming interested in copper properties
in this ncighborhood. They know n
good thing i'll red metal ore when they
see il. and have gobblcd up about all
there is in sight here.
With tho opening of the Rescrva-
ton another large tract of mineral
land has been thrown open to the pros
pector. and already reports of dis
covcries of valuable lodges of gold,
copper, silver, galena, etc, arc coming
in, The Reservation ground is n great
field, and it will take years to
thoroughly prospect il. The big rush
IS over, but prosp.cIor- and mining
mcn arc coming in all the time, and
more discoveries are being made daily.
Many Of them are going to prove bU-
nanzas and make their owners rich,
while some, of course. will not amount
TO much.
Mason valley is admirably situated
TO furnish all the new camps to the
east and those TO the west with all
kinds of produce at reasonable figures.
We have one of the finest valleys on
the Pacific coast and can raise the
finest kind of products and in greater
quantity than any other section, Land
in Mason valley will double in price
within the next three years It is
more than likely that a railroad will
run through our valley before another
year rolls around, and this will give
land owners a chance to ship their pro-
ducts TO southern camps, provided
they have n surplus after furnishing
the home market.
With all these prospects In view
what are we doing to make n town
that will he credit 10 the new condi-
tion of thingsl The town needs many
things which those who live here would
like to furnish If they had the means,
and which those who have the means
do not seem disposed TO furnish There
are splendid opportunities here for the
investment of capital in almost any
line.

Of unlisted stocks. Nevada gold mines
and Ely coppers arc mostly IN de-

of the curb market in Boston became
so apparent that the brokerage firms

his plans. His suggestion met with immcdi'

important brokerage houses Of the city now
have representatives the curb, about htty

Sea in their search for the murderer
of Frank E. Wheeler. fireman in the
Willard Hotel, who was found dead in
the street between the hotel and his
home Friday night.
Wheeler left $4,000 insurance in
favor of his wife, and in the absence
of q more definite clew the police are
working on thu theory that Wheeler
was murdered for the insurance
money.
James Diggs, a colored man, is
known to have been associated with
the Wheeler wcman then Mrs. Rey-

one in the neighbOrhoOd could be
found who heard any outcry or saw
any persons acting in an unusual

FOR SOLDIER DEAD.
House Passes Bill to Mark Confeder-
ate Graves.

At Washington, d. c., the house
ton bill, also the Foraker bill provid-
ing for the marking of the graves Of
confederate dead buried in the north.
The discussion developed an unani-
nous sentiment in favor of marking
confederate graves, and as the bill had
during the last session of the military
committee received favorable action it
was brought in by Mr.. Prince and
passed unanimously amid applause on
both sides of the house
Points of order made to the provi-
sions for a cableship for the Atlantic
on the Pacific coast eliminated those
provisions from the appropriation bill.
The alleged powder trust came infor
a scoring in debate and Democratic
endeavor to have the government be-
gin the manufacture Of its own powder
consumed some time, but met defeat
both on points of order and finally by
direct vote.
The army bill as passed CARRIES
something more than 100000, 900.
Mr.. Underwood, of Alabama, made
a plea for the creation of a confe gr-
ate memorial commission of tM,ee
members to investigate and report the
proper steps to mark the graves of
the confederate dead and offered an
amendment to that end.
Mr.. Hull stated that his commit
tee had just reported the Foraker bill.
which practically accomplished the
end sought, but Mr. Underwood re-
piled that this applied only to confed-
crate dead in the north
A letter was read by Mr. Harwick,
of Georgia, expressing the satisfac-
ton of the women of the south with
the Foraker bill and concluded with
the hope that Mr. Underwood would
not press his amendment
The amendment was defeated by a
point of order by Mr. Kahn, of Cali
fornia.
The army bill was then passed

STORM KILLS SCORES.
Many Victims of Tornado at Meridian,
Miss.

A Mobile, Ala, special says: Infor-
nation has reached Mobile by tele-
phone that a destructive tornado Wis
tied Meridian, Miss, at $50 o'clock
Friday evening, killing twenty-one
white persons and over 100 colored
people and damaging property to the
extent Of $1,50O,O00.
There were also scores seriously in
jured by being caught in wreckage of
houses. The tornado caught the city
on the southwest and travelled to the
northeast, expanding itself in two sub
urbs where many negroes were killed
and injured, whole tenement district
being wiped out.
Two large wholesale stores, one
smaller one, the principal hotel, the
electric lighting plant and all the
smaller property between the Mobile
and Ohio Railroad depot and the bust
ness part of the city are badly dam
aged
Twenty-one men were caught in a
restaurant and several were killed.
Two stories of the Y M. G. A. building
were wrecked and the upper stories
of other buildings suffered.
The negro tenement district in the
north part of the city was demolished
and the debris caught fire and threat
ened a new danger, but the local de-
partment, with the help of hundreds
of citizens, triumphed over this after
hard fight. They were assisted by
the torrential rain following the tor
nado.
The path of the storm was about
600 feet wide and one mile in length.
The tornado struck Meridian, Miss.
from a northeasterly direction near
the New Orleans and Northeastern de-
pot The passenger and freight de-
pots were completely destroyed.
Sixteen employees of the Queen and
Crescent Railroad were buried in the
ruins and as far as could be learned
none of them have been rescued.
A number of bodies have already
been found, but as the tornado passed
through densely populated section
and the houses caught fire Immediate
ly it will take days to learn the exact
total number of the killed.
The operator at Toomsuba, Miss.
four miles north of Meridian, who had
ter, says that upwards of 100 persons
were killed and that the property loss
was enormous.
