GREEKS GO
LAPS COME

The fifty or more men who were
employed in the work of laying rails
on the v and I. extension to Minden
are on "A strike and the work for the
time being is suspended. 1t is the in
tent.on of the company to replace
these workers with Japs, as in times
of great mining excitements and 9th
er things which play on the minds of
the white laborer, the Jap is more to
be depended upon and the company
is anxious to complete the work of
laying rails as quickly as possible.
About three miles of track had
been laid when the strike occurred
and locomotive had steamed over
the new road as far as the Indian
school.

FORTY FEET OF
ORE

rich strike has been made about
six miles from Hinds'a hot snrfnus, ID
Smith Valley A ledge has been un-
covered 40 feet wide and containing
ore which averages $40 ton. The
find was made by man named Ken
nedy, prospector in the employ of
Senator Pitts of Humboldt county.
The ore resembles the great body Of
iron ore uncovered nearby by McDon-
aid of Willard and Mcdonald fame
When first seen it was mistaken for
ore of similar variety and for that
reason has been overlooked by other
prospectors. The ledge i i'll a porph
rey dyke md seems to have been
spread by volcanic eruption. 1t is
thought by experts who have examin
ed the claim that with depth the
ledge will narrow to about 10 feet.
Thus far there has been little or no
development work on the property and
it is impossible tojudge of the perman
ency of the ledge st present i'll view
Kennedy kept the news of his strike
secret for over a week, but one day
while in Yerington for supplies he let
the cat out of the bag and in a few
days the country about the mine was
located for miles, 1t was impossible
few days ago to make "A location
within five miles of the big strike.
BY some as many as twenty claims
have been staked. 1t is two miles
from the new camp to the nearest
water and two townsites have been
located there. One contal ming about
100 acres is on patented Ind
There seems to be a concensus of
opinion among those who have visited
the camp that the ledge uncovered ly
Kennedy will prove to be the only
mine in the camp. But if the claim
lives up to expectations and leases
are given. as Kennedy claims will be
the case. a good camp will result.
A number of Goldfield men were on
the ground when the camp was visit
ed by Record -Courie Representative
and all seem t. be enthusiastic over
the prospects. They aver that the
formation is very similar to that of
Goldfield and that the general topog-
raphy of the country is the same
One Gold field man said that the
showing is great deal better than
his camp had at the beginning 1t
is certain that there will he a Rad
scramble for leases when the prop
osition is thrown open to the public.

la st night ana was given by Gard.
nerville Lodge No. 36. 1t proved to
be the event of the season and was an
other proof of the ability of the Odd
Fellows as entertainers. A large
crowd was present. every part of the
county being represented and a mum
ber of the neighboring counties sent
contingents. The floor was in the
very best possible con dition and this
fact combined with the excellent qual
ity of the music dispensed by the
iardnerville Orchestra, made the oc-
eassion one of jollity and pleasure
which will long be remembered.
A delicious supper was served at
Larsons Hotel at midnight after
which dancing was resumed and con-
tinued until the small wee hours of
the morning combined with the objec-
tions filed by tired natrue conspired
to bring one of the pleasantest parties
in the history of local Odd Fellowship

not as happy even as those who DO
