BIRTHS IN LEAD
More Than Twice as Numerous
as Deaths in Illinois
Last Year.
ONE 10000; OTHER IS, 200
Report of Secretary of Board of Health
Shows There Are 10000 Physi-
clans in State.

Springfield, ILL.,, Jan. 4.-The annual
report of the Illinois board of health.
which was presented yesterday after
noon to Gov. Deneen by DR.. J. A. Egan,
secretary of the board, shows that
there were 5000 deaths in the state
during the year and approximately $780,
900 births.
Consumption continues to cause
more deaths than any other disease,
but pneumonia and heart disease stand
close in second and third places. OF
the 10000 births the males exceeded
the females by fully 5000.
Are 10000 Physicians.
The reports say that there are now
more than 10000 physicians licensed to
practice in Illinois and the board ex-
amined and licensed $50 physicians
during the past year.
Two laws passed by the last general
assembly and which have gone into eff
feet in the past year have imposed ad-
ditional work upon the state board of
health. One provides for the appoint
ment of agents in every county of the
state, whose duty it is to keep on hand
at all times fresh supply of antitoXin
OF a quality approved by the board.
These agents have been appointed and
and are now prepared to meet any calls
upon them.
License Embalmcrs.
The second law calls upon the board
to examine and license all embalmers
and prohibits embalming by others
than those holding licenses from the
board. The provisions of this law ne
cessitated numerous changes in the
methods of the transportation of the
dead. but the law will have the effect
of rendering the transportation and
handling of bodies dead of contagious
diseases free from danger to the pub
lie. Already LOO embalmers have
been examined and licensed.

The text was short: Come at once;
rich strike" but 1t was sufficient to send
him post haste to the scene. 1t appears,
however, there was a leakage from the
telegraph Offices along the line n by
the time he reached the place at least
800 people had arrived. Under the un-
expected onslaught the Ramsey boys re-
fused to show their strike and the crowd
loosely located the whole of the sur
rounding country and vacated the scene.
Until these locations become void which
will be shortly after the first of the new
month Captain Mayne asserts the men
who are working in the camp fear to
make their strikes known because OF
the ease with which the locations can be
swung. Captain Mayne, who returned
from there on Tuesday evening states
that there is considerable activity APP
parent and that there is no doubt 1t will
prove a good thing. He reports that
with Mr.. II. T. Bragdon he has secured
seven claims which will be formed into
a company to be known as the New
Comstock Mining company. On the
ground he a y a ledge of quartz crops

Mayne says. " have been in all of these

showing I have ever seen" The values

the captain is of the opinion that as

tive development will be boldly begun.
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1906-06-30

There is a lesson for the ~prospector
in the story OF every new strike that
has been made in Nevada and the lesson
in every case is the same. 1t is that
the state has scarcely been prospected
at all and in those districts where the
mining industry has been followed long
est very little is known of the ground
outside of the immediate camp. Monte
yuma from which Goldheld is distant
only 10 miles was extensively worked
40 years ago and yet it remained for
1903 to disclose some of its wealth. Man.
haitian is not far from old Belmont.
Round Mountain is only 8 or 4 miles
from Jefferson Canon, an old camp. The
new camp of Bullion is in reality on aid
camp and SO II goes. What volumes of
mineral wealth may now be on our door
step unsupported II remains for the
future and maybe another generation
to disclose. Perhaps the latest example
of mans proneness to overlook those
goods which lie nearest home is the
strike at Ramsey. Ramsey is just
Is miles northeast of old Virginia City
where mining was carried on half a CEN
fury since. Here are the famous old
mines which produced mil
and one might suppose that every
of the surrounding country had
been thoroughly examined. In April,
however. of the current year Tom and
Ramsey of Goldheld prospected
in the vicinity of what is now the camr
of Ramsey and made a number of loca-
tons. Then wishing their friends in
