says
Senator Thomas G. Platt and his wife,

agreed to separate. The law firm Of
Marsh Winslnw and Weaver, number III

the announcement yesterday The deed
was signed BY both but not in the pres

Owing to unhappy differences be-
tween them the undersigned have this
day executed i deed Of separation. While
making such announcement we wish to
assert with all possible emphiss the
falsity of the scandelous articles which
have lately appeared iii the pubic prints.
While there have been series of differ

i separation advisable. there has been no
conduct upon the part of either which
could possibly BE- the foundation of .

Free Drinks at Goldfield.

The widest hour ever chronicled in
the history of Nevada will go on re-
cord dating from IL m, January 7, to
! a. m, January 7, says the Goldfeld
News. During this hour hundreds of
pounds of dynamite will be exploded
in crevices of the Malapi above the
city of Goldfeld. The reverbrations of
the shots will be a signal for the sa-
Icons of the camp to dispose liquid re,
freshments for sixty minutes free of
charge. This event marks the closing
of the majority of the rich leases on
the properties owned by the Consoli-
dated Mines Company, which now con
sists of the Mohawk, Red Top, Jumbo

STRIKE WILL FOLLOW CHANGE
ROOM SYSTEM.

GOLDFIELD, New, Dec. lit is
rumored in this city that since the dis
covery of SO many thefts on the Mo
hawk and other mines of this camp by
"high graders the owners of the
various mines have decided to insti-
tute the change room for miners and
compel them to change their clothes
and permit themselves to be searched
before leaving the mines.
The miners have also objected to
the change room, and according to the
best information obtainable they will
continue to object, and very serious
Iy, to the installation of the system.
They threaten to strike if the change
room is demanded by the mine own
ers and to close up all the mines in the
camp. They also threaten to close the
mines in Tonopah and the other south
ern camps by sympathetic strikes If
the change room rule is enforced.
The mine owners claim that unless
the change room is instituted they may
have to elise down the mines, as thou
sands of dollars are stolen every day
by miners working in the high grade
properties of the different leases.

Jhorf Items of Interest
4round the State From
Our Exchanges :.


RENO, New, Dec. 1.-THE old min
ing town of De La Mar has been de-
serted in a single day for a richer
and more prosperous camp within a few
miles of the old town. The new town
is known as Meadow Valley, and ore
that will assay into thousands of dol
lars has been discovered there, and in
quite large veins and lodges. The mills
in De La Mar are still running and two
OF the richest mines are being worked,
but since the new discovery the town
has been practically deserted by min.
ers and other citizens looking for rich
es in the new district.
At one time De La Mar was one Of
the richest and largest mining camps
in the state of Nevada, but since the
rich discoveries in Goldfeld and To-
nopah the camp has been quiet. 1t
is thought that some rich properties
win be developed in the new district
near De La Mar and that the old town
will boom once more.
