Making Money Fast.

Eastern reports are to the effect
that on an original investment OF
only 81, 900, 600 made by Charles M.
Schwab in the mines of Tonopah,
Goldfeld and Bullfrog, he now has
paper profits of $25, 900, 900 and that
all of this money has been made with
in a couple Of years in Nevada's min.
eral territory.
During this time Mr.. Schwab has
acquired the controlling interests in
many Of the largest producing prop
critics in the southern mineral belt.
1t is said that he has a grand merger
scheme whereby all of his holdings
will be brought under one manage
ment, with Donald B. Gillies at the
helm.
Under the threat of building his
own smelter, Mr.. Schwab has entered
into an advantageous contract with
the American Smelling and Refining
company for the treatment of the
production from all of his properties,
covering a period Of twenty-five
years, while very low freight rates
have been obtained from the railroads
tapping the properties owned by the
steel magnate. All of these contracts
will be turned over to the new com
pany without consideration, although
very valuable assets.
1t is understood that the eonsolida-
ton will include no less than seven
teen properties and when completed
will be one of the largest mining cor
porations in the west.-Salt Lake

JOINS HER
MAKER
One Of Gods Noblewomen
Passes to the Great Beyond
Mourned by Many Friends.

The Elko Free Press referred to
the death of Mrs. Charles e. Mayer,
in a lengthy article, from which we
quote as follows:
Mrs. Charles e. Mayer passed from
earth to the great hereafter at six
o'clock this morning. For many
weeks her death has been expected
and when she passed away she was
surrounded by her family,
Shortly before six o'clock this
morning she seemed to hear the sum
mons, it was Just before sinking into
the final coma. Don't leave me
now" she said, and then a peaceful
sleep kissed down her eyelids and her
years Of suffering were at an end.
During her many months of sick
ness she bore her suffering like a
christian martyr. She long since
realized that no power on earth
could cure her, but never a word Of
complaint did she murmur, and those
around her could only guess the in
tensity Of the pain she constantly
endured. Now the environments have
fallen from around her winged spirit;
the burdens of life are all removed,
and there is deep comfort in the
thought that she now rests in peace
in that home on high where all is per-
feet peace.
Maria Brown Crockett Mayer was
born at Wytheville, Virginia, on the
goth of May, 1916. She was the
daughter Of Augustus Crockett and
Elizabeth Erskine, who we're Of the
old families of the Stuarts and Crock
etts, that figured in the early history
of Augusta county, Virginia. She
was a member OF the Confederate
Daughters of America and is one OF
the few families whose daughters are
eligible TO the order OF Colonial
Danes" Her girlhood days were
spent in the town Of Wytheyile,
where she resided during the Civil
War. Two of her brothers, Charles
and William, were killed in the battle
OF New Market in the cause of the
South.
In 1868 she was married TO Charles
E. Mayer and in 1873 came to Nevada,
in which state she has since resided,
with the exception Of two years spent
In California.
She leaves a husband and eight
children, six sons, Erskine, William,
Charles, Harry, Halleok and Stuart
(Babe) and two daughters, Mrs. b. ].
Bangs and Mrs. ]. NJ. Taber. She
has a brother, j. Stuart Crockett,
residing in Sparks, Illinois.
To those to whom the deceased wa;
most dear and who most deeply
u her loss, we Join with the
community in extending deepest
sympathy.

he had no idea that Tonopah was

DunkIrk,s Eete of Lanterna.

One Of the quaintest of the numer-
GUS yearly fetes still in honor at Dun
kirk Is the fete of lanterns, instituted
many hundreds of years ago in honor
of st. Martin, bishop of Tours, who
died In 396, and who was one of the
prelates by whose efforts the early in
habitants of these parts were convert
ed to Christianity. AS soon as dusk
sets in the celebration commences, and
all the urchins of the town congregate
in the main thoroughfares. Each one
bears "A paper lantern, some of which
are of considerable proportions. being
shaped in the form of a ship or n
flower. With lanterns in hand and
blowing Justify on horns and trum-
pets, the crowd of youngsters parades

BY some strange irony st. Alban.
the martyred but possibly mythical
Roman soldier, whose festival falls
on June %, has quite ov~ershadowed
his probably historic instructor, st.
Amphibalus, whose anniversary comes
on the following day. About Am
phibalus we know that he was a ma
tive of Caerleon, which the golden
legend expresses by clubbing him "a
princes Sol Of Wales in CRETE araye."
He was buried at Redbourne, but

where his cup was preserved, (which

were frequently christened with his
name, and Affabell Partridge was gold

DEPosiToR COMMITS SUICIDE.
Chicago Bank Failure Is Responsible
for Loss of Another Mans Life.

Chicago, Aug. 21.-Another suicide
was added to the list caused by the
wrecking of the Milwaukee Avenue
State bank. Edward Kollereb, forty
five years old, who two months ago
deposited $3.50 in the defunct institu-
ton. hanged himself. The prospective
loss of this money is said to have IN
balanced his mind.

proved by Judge Walker. This action
brought to an end the conflict over the
question of jurisdiction between the
superior and circuit courts and re-
moved all opposition in the courts to
the administration of John C. Fetzer

Greek Palate TiclSiers.

As delicacies the Greeks ate young
foxes caught i'm the autumn, robins and
sparrowS and certain kinds Of fish
shared by moonlight. There Is Il scrap
of an old Greek comedy in which Il
cook boasts Of frying Il fish so eNqui-
sitely that it threw him grateful looks
from the pan. \ famous Greek dish
was the Trojan pig, half Of it boiled
and the other half roasted. 1t was
stuffed with eggs, ortolans and
thrushes. The Romans ate snails-
giant monsters - fattened until their
shells held an incredible amount of
snail. The kettle in a high class Ro-
nan kitchen was often shaped like an
elephants head. The water was pour
ed through the trunk. The gridiron
might be a huge silver spider or a
skeleton fish.

THE B~L.JEBEARD STORY.
II Has a Mythical Rather Than .
NEUROLOGICAL Origin.

The fascinating story of Bluebeard
has a mythical rather than Il mytho-
logical origin. No one has found his
prototype In the Nedas or in the old
Greek or Roman authors. The story
Is supposed to be of French origin,
and it has even been suggested that
Bluebeard was no other than the much
married Henry VIII. There is. how
ever, better reason for believing that
the original VAS Giles de Laval, lord
OF Riaz, who was marshal of France
early in the fifteenth century. He was
Il brave soldier whose exploits in tie
wars between England and France are
recorded in history. According to
Mizcray. he murdered his wives as
soon as he tired of them, and was him
self eventually stranglcd in lii0.
The story OF Laval has, however, not
many points Of resemblance, for there
Is no mention of n key, and Giles dc
Laval, moreover, used to entice per.
sons of both sexes to his castle for the
sake of their blood, which he wanted
for certain lamentations he INDUCED in.
Nor, indeed, does the story fit in with
u W Henry VIII, and we are left
to believe that, whatever the origin,
the key and Sister Ann were added for
the sake Of effect. A variant of the
story Of Giles de Laval is told by Hol-
inshed, In whose version the name is
Giles de Retz, Marquis de Laval, who
lived In Brittany, and was strangled
and burned for the murder of his seven
wives. DIR. G, Taylor, it may be added,
regarded the story simply as fiction, a
satire on or type Of the castle lords Of
the days of knight errantry.-London

NEGRO TROOPS TRANSFERRED.
Company Of White Soldiers Ordered
Ia Fort Brown.

Washington, Aug. 21.-Orders were
issued by the military secretary, Ma
jor General F. c. Ainsworth, for the
transfer OF the colored troops from
Fort Brown, Tex, where there has
been serious trouble between citizens
and soldiers, to Fort Ringgold, Tex,
which is about 100 miles above Fort
Brown. One company Of the Twenty
sixth infantry is ordered to Fort
Brown to take the place Of the colored
troops. The company ordered to Fort
Brown is made up of white men.
This shifting about Of troops was
made subsequent to a report from Ma
jor C. w. Penrose on the situation at
Fort Brown. and after an appeal by
Senator Culberson to President Roose-
welt. In his report Major Penrose
says he was persuaded that the kill
ing of n citizen in Brownsville and
the wounding of another were the
work of soldiers, although he has been
unable as yet to discover who the
guilty men are.
