STRIKE AT GOLDEN ARROW.
A messenger arrived this morning at
the Office of DR.. A. H. Elftan from
Golden Arrow district, in which Eft
man is heavily interested. He brought
word that Wonderfully rich rock was
struck day before yesterday in the
Golden Rock claim, on the extension of
what is called Black Bird ledge The
ore body is twenty-five feet wide and
pans high, clear across, but one streak
several inches wide appeared richer
than the rest and shot put into this
disclosed wonderful rock. 1t is stated
that samples from this streak pan more
than $1,000 and that from every pan Of
ore teaspoonful of coarse gold is
gathered.
News has been received here of the
discovery Of gold values in lime forma-
tion at Manhattan, where large ledge
of lime quartz has been exposed on
property belonging to F. t. Torpey. 1t
was found while the prospector was
as lime does not contain values as a
rule in the camp. Torpey had assays
made day before yesterday and was
greatly surprised to get s26. This is
the first indication of gold bearing lime
in the district. The property is a frac-

NJ KAY DENIES He.
WAS To BLAME.
Pilot of Tampico Swears
Bay City Drove Him
Up on the Mud Flats
NO ROOM TO TURN

Because Captain r. B. Mckay of the
steam schooner Tampico believed he
had the right of way as against the
passenger ferry-boat Bay City, not
withstanding that he had answered
the signals of the Bay City, he pro-
ceeded on his course until his ship
crashed into the side of the crowded
passenger boat. almost creating panic
among the 1900 people on board.
Such was the gist of Captain Nc
kay's testimony yesterday before
United States Supervising Inspector
John Birmingham in his investigation
into the collision, which took place last
Tuesday evening
Captain William Rogers of the Bay
City swore that he whistled twice, each
time with two. blasts. for the Tampico
to sheer off. His first whistle was un-
needed. The second signal was an
swered by the Tampico with two blasts.
but 1t appeared that the Tampico had
gone too far into the course of the Bay
near the ferry slip at the Alameda mole
to be extricated in time to avoid the
collision
Captain Rogers said the Tampico,
which was heading for Oakland chan
mel across the bow of the Bay City,
was a quarter of a mile to the south
ward OF the channel
f. Dorwin, first mate of the Tam
plco. swore that after his ship mad re-
sponded to the Bay City's signal he
ported the helm as long as he dared
without touching ground. rhey coulu
not get any farther. he said. without
going upon the mud flats Then, when
he saw that the Bay City was going
to cross her bow. he rang for all speed
astern, and the suction from the ferry
boat drew the Tampico right into her.
Captain Mckay admitted that he was
acting without a license.- and the usual
penalty of 500 will probably be as
sessed against him.
The case was taken under advise

RAILROAD TO SILVER PEAK.

arrived here last night and said that
the railroad to that place is being rush

point half way to Silver Peak from the
main line. Installation Of the pipe lines

which has been consolidated with the

rived al the Mohawk Alpine, having a
capacity of sixteen drills, and will be

going steadily ahead and splendid
showings are made.
Zeb Kendall, one Of the most success
full operators OF the district and a pio-
neer of Goldfeld, announced here today
that he had started work on the Cold
field Columbia property. near the town
of Goldfield. Claims adjoin the ground
of the famous Mohawk at Goldfield and
also the Silver Pick. Kendall says that
an old shaft that Is down seventy feet
on the property will be continued and
two shifts kept at work. The shaft
shows a strong ledge all the way down,
values running about s6. but Kendall
hopes to find good values at a greater
depth, because the property is well sit
uated in a district that is remarkably
rich.
ORE SAMPLES RUN 500.
N C. Fassett of the. Golden Silver
Peak Mining Company returned yester-
day from trip to the company.s hold
ings. which are located fifteen miles
southwest OF Silver Peak. He brought
with him samples from FIVE different
places other than the main workings
of the group of twenty-one claims. As
says on these samples ran high, the
lowest going more than $40. He says
that he could see ten or more lodges on
each claim of the group and that the
showings carry lead, silver. copper, gold
and deposit of turquoise Samples
were taken at intervals of a half-n mile
and the values were in gold, though
one also carried 25 per cent copper. A
shaft on the property is down 125 feet
and at the sixty-foot level drifting on
the ledge is going on, while at the bot
tom crosscuts are being run both ways
to determine the width of the ore
bodies. 1t is said that more than 100
tons of ore have been taken out and
piled on the dump awaiting the arrival
of the railroad at Silver Peak, when it
will be sent to the smelter Fassett
figures that on the assays the rock
should net the. company $50 to $40 a
ton. TheNwork done at present is all
in a lead deposit, on which smelter
rates are very low. The ledge on which
the shaft is down has been opened up
for 5000 feet on the surface and the
company feels certain that 1t continues

HAVE SOME ENJOYMENT.

How much better to use some
of the good things of life as we
go along; to make our humble
homes as CHEEKY and bright as
possible now. Do not starve to-
day, either body, mind or soul,
thinking that poverty will knock
at your door tomorrow. Don't
hoard and scrimp through all the
best years of your life that you
may be generous in your will.
Life is uncertain, and is better
to make your children happy
while they are under the roof;
to call to that home every agency
that will make their lives sweet
er and better, than to deny them
these that you may leave them
large account when you are gone.
1t will be too late for them to re-
turn kindness to you then. Don't
keep the parlor shut up and live
in the kitchen, unless you want
the boys and girls to be anxious
to leave you. Don't think they
must not 60 anywhere but to
Sunday school and prayer meet
ing; remember you were young
once yourself. Do not ask them
to walk two miles to a singing or
lecture after working hard all
day, when there are two or three
horses in your barn that would
enjoy the trip as much as they.
For God's sake show them you
think as much Of them as you do
of your beasts if not more.
Take time to enjoy the society
of your friends, especially the
companionship of your children;
it will only be few years at the
best that they will be with you,
and these ought to be years of
happiness to both you and them.
Would you not rather have them
look back when out in the world
to that blessed home Though it
may not have been a mansion)
where they received more joy
and comfort than the world can
afford, than to have them forget

Feeding Timothy Hay.

For 100 years or more it has
been the practice to feed Timo-
thy hay to cows giving milk, the
impression being that timothy
hay is the best kind of hay in
the world for such purpose. The
fact is that timothy hay is very
poor kind of feed for dairy cows
unless some protein element is
fed with it. Shorts and bran
are both good to supplement
timothy hay, as they are rich in
protein. Any meal that comes
from leguminous plant is rich
in nitrogen, which is the base Of
protein. Such meals as those
from peas, soy beans and COW
peas will balance timothy hay
proftably. Alfalfa hay can-be
fed with timothy hay to advan-
tage, these two being of a nature
to balance each other.

Every Boy and Girl at Times a
Savage.

A dispatch to the Chicago
Tribune from GAINESVILLE, Wis,
says:
Every boy or girl is a savage
at some time or other, according
to President Hughes, Of Ripon
College, who made such a dec
laration in an address to one
thousand teachers attending the
meeting OF the Southern Wis
consin Association. Furth Q r
more, every child has the right
to be savage as it pleases, he
said. Continuing, Presid e n
Hughes said:
"The real master is the one
who does not kill this spirit in
the child, but getting in sympa-
thy with it leads it out.
ITO SO teach no new program
is needed, no changed curricu-
lam. All that is necessary is to
love the savage, for all ages must
be developed in order that the
complete man may result. We
must respect selfhood."
Mrs. Grundy. (Tracy City, Tenn.) 1903-1930, 1906-11-29
Stayed Months in Bed.

1t is seldom that we hear of a
more eccentric man than was
Prof. Oedmann, a Swedish the
ologian, who died a short time
ago in Stockholm. One time
during prolonged illness he was
compelled to remain in bed for
many weeks, and during this
time conceived a liking for lying
snugly ensconced in warm blank
cts, free from the caprices of the
weather and protected from the
perils of catching another cold.
After his illness the professor
was seized with a senseless dread
of catching cold, and insisted up
on keeping his bedroom windows
closed down tight, and from that
time until his death spent prac-
tlcally all of his time in bed,
where he did all his regular work
and ate his three meals a day.
So very odd was he that in ex-
aiming written exercises by the
students he refused to touch the
paper upon which they were
written until it had been warm
ed over the stove. 1t is claimed
that the professors death was
actually caused by visit from
an old gentleman on a stormy
day who desired an interview
with him. This latter incident
ally entered the chamber of the
professor with his clothes cover
ed with snow, a sight which ag-
gravated the professor, and he
ordered his visitor TO leave the
room at once. Unfortunately,
the visitor was quite deaf, and
misunderstood him, approaching
nearer to the bedside of the an
CRY professor. Herr Goldman be-
came greatly alarmed, and in
his frantic excitement broke q
blood vessel and expired.
