SHIPPING ORE TAKEN
FROM MINES AT DYKE.
Ernest Jackson, One Of Discoverera
of Camp, Interviewed by Ely
ExpOsitOr ReDrotor.

ELY, New, Feb. 2-ssThe eyes of
the mining world are upon the new
Humboldt mining camps said Er,
nest Jackson, one of the discoverers
of the famed Dyke district, to an
Expositor reporter. "Salt Lake min.
ing men have invested heavily in
Dyke, Rosebud and Seven Troughs
showings all these camps are going
to make good.
"a. w. Ellis and myseIf found
some rich float at Dyke last June
while we were on our way to Ely
from Sumpter, Ore. We were pleased
with the indications and have been
working our mines since then. We
have done $50 feet of tunnel and
shaft work, and have taken out a
lot of shipping ore, which will average
5000 to the ton
"A townsite was laid out by ten
pioneers of the district. The claims
adjoining mine were sold several
days ago for $4,000, and expect to
clean up some money at Dyke in the
spring. Mr.. Ellis is now in Rosebud
doing work on some of our claims.
A. W. Ellis was the original locator
of the Bamberger properties at Della
mar. He is pioneer of this county
having been around all the old min
ing camps of the early days. Mr.

county, and is here on a visit to his
mother, Mrs J. F. Cupid, and his

AND SOUTHERN PACIFIC.

More Data Regarding the New
Transcontinental Road.

The San Pose Mercury Of Sunday,
February End, publishes the follow
ing Western Pacific news:
Rushing Track Towards Oroville-
The Utah Construction company has
the contract to build the road from
Salt Lake City to Oroville and their
contract also calls for an end Of
work by September 1908. On that
part of the road Immediately west cf
the great Salt lake, the most active
work is being done and constant
trains of flatcars bearing ties and
rails are passing over the completed
track to extend the road toward
Oroville, where the engineers have
made their permanent camp.
Unfortunately, not all the work
will be done on the flat, but several
hundred miles of mountainous coun
try have to be traversed or the road
would reach the coast in no time. Part
of the mountains will be passed by
detours which take the road OFT Of
the direct line. This longer route will
have it's advantages, for the grade
between Oakland and Salt Lake City
will in no place surpass one per cent
and troubles experienced by otLei
raods in climbing mountains on a
three per cent grade will be elininat-
ed Between Oroville and Salt Lake
City forty-seven tunnels will be dug
through the mountains. They will cut
off much distance that will otherwise
have to be traversed to keep the grade
down. One of these will be quite ali
engineering feat, as it will be a mile
and half long This will be al
Spring Garden, near Oroville, and vii
save several miles of heavy grade in
passing the last of the mou ltains.
Besides passing through = rich
mining territory in Nevada and Cal
ifornia, the route will traverse prac
tically the whole Sacramento valley
with it's wonderful fertility in wheat
and grain fields. For part of the Ills
tanee, between Wells anl Whine
mucca, New, the road will parallel tho
Southern Pacific. At both of these
points it swings wide and taps an en-

In Nevada the road will run almost
as far north as the edge of Black
Rock desert, crossing to the north Of
Pyramid lake. After entering Cali.
fornia, the tracks will again parallel
the Southern Paciii,, and with twa
sharp bends will cross the mountains
through Beckwlth pass. From tie
pass to Marysy,lle tho route is prac.
tically that Of the Hartman road.
Despite the width Of the 'S'
shaped track from Bcckwith into
Oakland, tbs Couli line will hc cn!y
seventeen miles longer than thu
than the Southern Pacific between
Salt Lake City and Oakland. As far
as ease of passengers is concerned, the
engineers who planned the road say it
will surpass any other mountain road
in the United States, since no curve
is greater than five degrees.
With lack of curve and running on
such easy grades, the builders expect
the line between the Atlantic and Pa
cifc coaststo be cut several hourse.
as the trains will make greater speed
over the new route than is possible
over the old ones. Speed with safety
is one. of the notices of the other
branches of the Gould system, and it
is believed that this new road will be
no exception.
The specifications under which the
contracts were let call for the highest
type of road construction and every
section will be given a thorough test
before the road il opend for traffic.
1t is being fairly well tested as it is
being built by the passage Of rock bal

Friday in Paradise Valley, by Sheriff
Lamb be convicted on the charge of
stealing horses from the California
and Oregon Live Stock associations
If he can be convicted on that
charge, Sheriff Lamb will have made
100000 for that is the reward Of
fcred by the above association for the
arrest and conviction of anyone steal
ing stock from any of its members.
About two weeks ago the sheriff s
Office received the following letter:
Cedarville, Cal.
.To the Sheriff Of Humboldt County,
.Dear Sir-A man named Ed
Laird and two accomplces recently
left Oregon with band of range
horses, and it is supposed he is head
ed for Paradise Valley, where he owns
a ranch The horses were stolen, and
we want you to look out for him. We
belong to the California and Oregon
Live Stock association and there is
100000 reward for the arrest and
conviction of anyone ste<iing stock
from members of the association. We
can prove by two stock men that he
was seen riding a gray horse with
cross-iron on the right hip, and If
you can catch him with that horse you
have cinch to convict him, with
any other horses of the brands we
have enclosed with this lette.. Ar
rest him in Nevada, hold him, wire
us and we will send requisition pa
pers from the Lakeview, Oregon,
authorities. Also take his accom-
plices in. We want the bunch.
"Yours truly,
.ACTY & GILLIAN,
Cedarville, Modoc County, CALI
When sheriff Lamb went north to
summon trial jurors, he carried this
letter in his inside pocket and kept
n sharp lookout for La rd. He had
no trouble in finding him. Laird, who
is not a stranger in Paradise, and goes
by the name of Ed Edwards, -
there. The arrest was made in Para
disc Valley last Friday 'ght in Geo
Bradfords' saloon. The sheriff
brought his prisoner to Winnemucca
lodged him in the county Jail and
notifying Aety & Gillian of Cedar
vile of the arrest. The sheriff was
not able to get in possession of evi-
dcncc such as is mentioned in the
letter, but he has some evidence
which, although not conclusive, will
be of considerable Importance in the
conviction or the prisoner.
Laird alias Edwards, has often
been in trouble over stock stealing.
He has, however. been successful in
c1v,r.ng Evidence that might be used
against him.
he has been on tr,al several times
but has yet to be convicted of the Of
fense of horse stealing He was ar
rested once in Reno and tried on a
charge preferrid by Louis Dean. He
has twice ben located by the Off
cials and has had trials following
his arrest, but each time he has
legal talent has been retained to pros
eeute Laird this time, and it Is ex-
peeted that be will find it hard
task to dispute the facts showing
his guilt

Bad BrCa h from Indigestion
Cannot BE Overcome with
Perfumes.

All of US suffer from bad breath
sometimes our own, but oftener that
of our friends.
Nine tenths of this bad breath
comes from some stomach trouble.
and cannot be overcome by breath

M assures.
RI you occasionally have a bad
breath; if there is heart burn, fat
ulence and acid gulpings of undi-
gested food; if the stomach burns or
smarts; if there is sleeplessness,
nervousness, headaches or any other
of the many symptoms of indigestion
use Mi ona stomach tablets and get
well.
Mora is Tot a mere digestive nor
a physic, but a tonic remedy that
8 rengthens the muscles of the stom-
ach and bowels so chat the flow of
gastric juices is increased, and the
food is digested naturally and does
not stay in the stomach to ferment
and poison the breath.
Fred D. Pierce has seen so many
cures made by Mi-ona stomach tab
lets that he gives a guarantee with
every 50-eent box that the money
will be refunded if the remedy fails

whole risk, and box of Mi-o-na will
