MOTHER gold strike has been
"a made on Winnemucca mountain,
and if the indications go for any
thing it is probable that future devel-
opments will stamp it as one Of the
most important yet made on the noun

Gold bearing surface ore, running
$32 to the ton, made last week by W.
Webb while prospecting in the canyon
for J. ID. Biggins.
The strike avs made near the base

Captain Foster made a fine run of i5

SOME FEATURES Of
BIC LEAGUE BALL

The season of 1906 in baseball was
marked by many remarkable feats OF
skill. and many of the performances will
stand in the history OF. the game for years
TO come. That 24-inning game between
the Athletics and Boston on Sept. l will
probably stand as the longest big league
game on record for a long time.
The pitcher this year comes in for no
small share Of the honors.
Two OF the greatest feats OF the year
have been the no-hit games pitched by
Lush OF the Phillies and Eason OF the
Superbas. The former performed his act
against Brooklyn and the latter against
st. Louis. Pfeister OF the Cubs has the
remarkable performance OF tanning Jor-
dan. a famous slugger Of Brooklyn, eight
times straight, extending over two games
He also whitfield 13 men In one OF the
games played against tho Cardinals. but
this fear was surpassed by Christy Math-
ewson of the Giants. when he famed Ia
Superbas In nine innings.
One of the greatest achievements Of the
year was when the Sox beat the Yankees.
although Orth held them down TO one hit,
This was all the more remarkable when
IL is taken into consideration that the
Yankees made eight safe hits.
That ever-to-be remembered battle
when the Cubs walloped the Giants in
New York by score OF 10 to is fea-
ture Of the year. and the Sox's record OF
winning 10 straight IS something beautiful
10 behold Both of the Boston teams lost
more games in a row than could be con-
ceived of, and other matters OF note also
cropped up from time to time.
Even the umpires. those suffering NOR
tails, have come in for a share of the
features notably among whom are
OLoughlin and Evans OF the American
league and ODay and Johnstone OF the

MICROBES LIVE 10 BE
OF VERY GREAT AGE

The festive mcrobe would depopulate
the earth quickly If there were no others
to eat them Fortunately for mans sake
these cannibal microbes keep busy, and
the mortality among the whole is tremen-
dous. TheH- longevity, however, when
they do survive all the battles TO which
existence subjects them, is one OF their
most unpleasant traits, and IL is hard 20
have feeling OF confidence about the mat
ter even when they seem to be dead, for
IL has been shown that years after their
supposed brief period OF activity they
have retained their death-dealing quail
ties.
An instance is given of the devastating
plague in the Dutch town OF HARLEM
about the time OF the London plague.
A whole family who died OF this dis
ease were inferred In the churchyard and
IL was found necessary n few years ago
to repair the family tomb containing their
bodies. The masons who were so employ
ed proved the activity OF these germs
after 200 years, by contracting, In a mild
form, the original disease, from which.
however, they all recovered.
Another case was a Scotch bank note
discovered by a girl In the Bible that her
grandfather had used at the time OF his
death from some malignant disease on
taking IL out OF the book she licked the
corner OF the note TO prove Its genuine
ness, and contracted the disease which
was fatal 10 her ancestor rs years before.
An epidemic broke out among the
sharks I'm the Indian ocean which proved
10 be cholera, and the supposition is that
they became infected by devouring the
bodies Of British sailors who had died
OF the disease and were buried in Bombay
Harbor.
The hardy microbe is believed 20 survive
on land for over two centuries, and MAIN
tain it's activity still longer in water.
