The District Counts.

Manhattan is the biggest and the
richest mining district in Nevada" is
the way an arrival from that camp put
it to a Review reporter on Monday.
"You can say for me that there have
been more good strikes made at Man
haitian in the last month than in all
other districts in the State put together.
The district should not be judged by the
appearance of, or the business condi-
tions prevailing in the town of Manhat-
tan. A four months old town with
forty saloons and every other kind of
business equally well represented may
be overdone and not enough business to
go around, yet the country for several
miles, in every direction is located, and
the good finds are not confined to any
one locality. Good strikes have been
made ten miles from the town. If you
want to see what is actually going on in
the Manhattan district keep away from
the town and spend your time among
the men who are working the ground. "
Asked as to the prospects of a rail-
way in the near future, the arrival from
Manhattan said: "You read the re-
ports that appear from time to time in
newspapers and probably know as much
as l do on that question; but there are
reports in circulation at Manhattan that
the owners of the Nevada Central will
extend the road from Austin to Man
haitian. This is not unlikely, for most
of the Manhattan freight is now teamed
from Austin, having been switched
from Tonopah, because of the higher
rates charged over the latter route. =

Wants Nothing to do with it.

Emil Sutro of the Emil Sutro COM
pany incorporated returned Tuesday
night from San Francisco and says he
hardly believes the new exchange in
Oakland will be a success. 1t is COM
posed principally of brokers in the San
Francisco and Tonopah exchange and
the Goldfeld exchange. The old Com
stock board and the San Francisco stock
and exchange board will have nothing
to do with this new proposition. Mr..
Sutro says that this old reliable board
will have nothing to do with the new
outfit but that it will stand back of the
Nevada and especially the southwestern
Nevada stocks.

TAKEN FOR A
RAYING MANIAC
The Experience Of a TOnOpah PrOspec-
tor 0nt on the Desert.

c. W. Higgins, a Tonopah prospector,
barely avoided, not long ago, being
bound hand and foot and packed off
on suspicion of being crazy. 1t was
shortly after the San Francisco disaster
and Mr.. Higgins was prospecting for a
Tonopah company in the Bullion district
where he had established a camp. He
had gone to the postoffice and received
the first papers giving an account of
the great quake and fire, and as this
was the first news in that locality of
any such thing happening, he was
naturally much excited and FASTENED
back to his camp, to read the accounts
in full. Arriving there he saw two
prospectors a little distance away who
had unpacked their burros preparatory
to pitching camp. Fastening to them
he inquired if they had heard the news.
NO." replied one, ''what is it
"Why, San Francisco has been totally
destroyed by earthquake and the city is
afire! The City Hall is in ruins; the
Palace hotel destroyed; all the sky
scrapers are fiat; some houses have
sunk out of sight and the Ferry build
ing "Yes," interrupted one of the
p~rospectors with the utmost complac-
ency, casting a sly glance at his part
ner, 'It was an awful thing"
Maybe you gentlemen don't believe
me-" said Higgins. "Oh yes we do
replied m of the strangers, turning his
head toward a pile of ropes which lay
near the p~ack-saddles.
II will get you the papers," sale
Higgins, starting off.

Hibernia Bank o. X.

1t will be of interest to the depositors
in the Hibernia bank to know that its
vaults have been examined by experts
and pronounced to be in the best state
of preservation of any similar recepta-
cles Of their size in the city. This was
due not only to the quality of their con-
struetion, but to the fact that the bank
building is but one story and there were
no overhanging walls to fall on the
vaults. The first load of lumber to
leave a yard in the city, after the fire,
was hauled to the Hibernia bank and
yesterday the scaffoldings, that had
been run up for interior repairs, were
removed.

Quail leave the n est the moment

Quailleave the nest the moment they are matched. They have been seen running through the grass with bits of shell clinging to them. They do not stay in the nest a moment longer than nec- essary to get their ''land Iegs, butrun away through the grass, followed by the mother, who watches over them untill they are old enough to take care of them selves. When suddenly sur- prised by man or dog, the mother will try to draw attention away from her brood by running along the ground with dropping wing, pretending to be wounded. The young quail flatten them selves out on the ground and TO- main motionless. When the mother has succeeded in enticing the object of her fear sufficient distance from her young, she will suddenly rise and fly away with the swiftness of an arrow.

A HARD ROW

And long pull describes the pathway of a woman afflicted with female weak ness unless she is under the care of a doctor who has had successful experience in the treatment of such cases or else has found the right remedy which can be safely used independently of the doctor.
 Forty years ago, Dr. R. V. Pierce found that women were being grossly mall treated-mainly through ignorance and carelessness, and he determined to devote himself to study and research till he found the real cause of their suffering and proper remedy for it.
 He found tt, and dug from Natures Laboratory, the earth, Natures remedies for woman's weaknesses and ailments. He found in Lady's Slipper root, Black Cohosh root, Unicorn root, Blue COhosh root and Golden Seal root, the required ingredients.
 The remedial virtues of these he ex- tracted, combined and preserved by his own peculiar non- alcoholic, glyceric pro- the world over, as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.

THE GRIP.

"Before we can sympathze with others, we must have suffered our selves" No one can realize the suffer- ing attendant upon an attack of the grip, unless he has had the actual experience.
 There is probably no disease that causes so much physical and mental agony, or which so successfully dehes medical aid. All danger from the grip, however. may be avoided by the prompt use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
 Among the tens of thousands who have used this remedy, not one case has ever been reported that has not recoy cred. For sale by all Druggist.

large capital who want to make in

that it strikes me we have n good
opening for just now is the grinding
OF alfalfa. That is comparatively
new industry anywhere. but il looks
to me like good thing. and would
be especially so right here where We
produce the raw material in such
abundance. The Earth ought to
reach some one who will give this
matter consideration and make an in
vestigation oi this locality as a site
for an alfalfa meal factory.
There is existing here also most
favorable conditions for wooicn
