In Mem0riam.

Mrs. Mary E. Bowen died at her
home in Extra township, Thursday
January 31st, 1907, after an illness
of long duration of dropsy and
heart trouble, being an invalid for
the last eight months.
Mary Elizabeth Allen was born
November 3Oth, 1858, in Tennessee.
She was the
wife of Charles E. Bowen, being
united in marriage on March I'd,
1876. To this union were born six
children, one of which died in in
fancy. The other children, Ira D.. /,
Homer F., Maude L., Lester E. and
limo NJ, were all present during
her last hours and did all that low
ing hands could do to make her
last hours peaceful. In her child
hood home she was the second of
family of seven. Mrs. Bowen was
a good neighbor and kind and
loving mother. She came to Iowa
in 1854 and has lived in Cass and
Audubon counties until her death.
The funeral services were con-
Quoted last Sunday at her home by
Rev. Kelly of Wiota. The remains
were buried in the Bowen cemetery
in South Extra township.
Everything was done to aid her
But it proved of little worth;
For an angel Whispered softly:
"Follow me, you're done with
EARTH"
She submitted to his message,
In short and feeble breath;
II will go, my Maker calls me"
And she closed her eyes in death
Children dear, you'll greatly miss
her
When the vacant chair you see
But remember God has called her
So you must contented be.
Brothers, sisters, tho you miss her
Wipe away the falling tear;
Up in heavens priceless mansion
You will meet your sister dear.
Tho no more in life we see her
As we wander day by day;
Old and young alike will miss her
For they join with me and say:
She is gone but not forgotten,
Never shall her mem'ry fade;
Sweetest thots will ever linger
Round sweet mothers silent
grave.
CARD OF THANKS
We wish to express our sincere
thanks to friends and relatives who
so kindly aided us in the sickn ese
and death of our beloved mother.

SEVERAL IMPORTANT DEALS
TN THE BULLION DISTRICT

Lessees on the Truckee lode. under
bond to w. S. Montgomery and asso-
ciates, have opened up a fine body of
ore, identical in appearance with that
found in the Riggs lease on the Gold
Quartz, and carrying good values.
]. J. Cusick and others, of Salt Lake,
have completed the purchase of the CO.
penhagen and Delmas claims, near the
town of Tenabo. and have a force of
men engaged in prospecting the surface
in search of the extension of the
"Dutchman" vein. Considerable rock
carrying better than 500 in gold. has
been found.
Col. f. A. Braden and l.. c. White, of
Goldfeld. and Charles Schiele, of Colo
rado Springs. have bought the Independ-
ence, Idaho and several other claims ly-
ing to the south of Altenburg Hill. Mr..
Schiele is in charge of the property and
announces his intention of employing
a force of men and prospecting the
ground thoroughly. The claims are fav-
orably located and the surface indica-
tons are excellent.
A fine body of high grade gold and
silver ore has been uncovered on the
Dexter lode, Immediately adjoining the
town of Lander on the south. The Dex-
ter is the property of the Jennies S.
company, controlled by ]. w. Atkinson
and T. A. McParlin. of Colorado Springs.

{ From our own Representative

FROM our own tcpiesChldtiNS.
Lander, New. April 9.-several i'm
portant mining deals have been consul
mated in the Bullion district during
the past week. Another, involving the
transfer of one of the largest proper
ties in the district is now being nego-
tiated, the details of which will be ready
for publication in a few days. The sale
of the Lovey property to Manion &
Flynn, Of D~eadwood, has greatly stimu-
lated mining activity. especially in the
immediate vicinity of Lander. The re-
markable showing in the Riggs and
Trout leases on the Gold Quartz prop
erty has also been an important factor,
and there is a demand for leases on
every desirable piece of ground In the
camp. 1t is estimated that more than
thirty sets of lessees are at work
in the district, SO that the demand for
wage workers is greater tina the sup
ply.
The sale of the Standby" group of
eight claims. Immediately adjoining the
town of Lander on the west, was consul
mated a few days ago. The purchasers
are some Colorado Springs capitalists,
represented by s. L. Goodale. E. NJ
of this place. They nave organized a
company to take over the property, and
will prosecute active development.
Charles s. Onderdonk. of Denver, has
completed the purchase Of the big
Bug group Of ten claims. lying two
miles north Of Lander. for which he
paid IS, 900. He also secured some val
liable options on property in the south
ern portion of the district.
The Anaconda and st. Lawrence lodes
were sold last week by II. H. Hale and
associates, of Reno, TO John Nolan and
DR.. vetter. also of Reno. for $12.oe
These claims lie Immediately east OF
the Phoenix claim of the Gold Quarts
company, and are directly in line with
the strike of the big vein recently
! opened up in the Trout lease.
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1907-04-13

Strike follows strike with almost
weekly regularity at the Sphinx estate
at Round Mountain. From surface to a
depth of 200 feet the min is in ore and
some of the quartz from the main ledge
is plastered full of gold in the free.
About two weeks ago a surface strike
was made on Sphinx acreage and as it
is developed the vein is yielding very
handsome free gold specimens. The
precious metal occurs in a ~porphyritic
quartz. The ledge has been stripped
for a length of 200 feet n for that
entire distance is high grade milling ore.
1t is the intention to devote considerable
mining energy to this ledge as it is
expected to make into a large and valua-
BILE ore body at depth.
Within a few days after the location
of this new ledge or the Sphinx the
main contact was tapped at a depth of
200 feet in the main working shaft.
The strike was made in a crosscut about
SO feet in from the station, and from
all data at hand is of even greater pro-
portions than any of a number of val
liable finds previously made. The ledge
is much larger where cut in the lower
level than where opened above, the walls
are better defined and gold values higher
and more stable han at the 110-foot
level.
At the 110-foot point a winze Is being
sunk at a point 157 feet in from the
shaft. At a depth of 25 feet the deposit
in it's bottom is a fair grade of milling
ore in its entirety. The average width
of the vein matter is s feet. In the west
drift at the same level work continues
without cessation and under the most
favorable mineral conditions. The en-
tire drift is in milling ore and not In
frequently the quartz shows gold in the
free. The upraise from the 110-foot
level has penetrated the ore body a
length of 20 feet and all the quartz
passed through is high grade milling
product. This raise is being run for the
purpose of connecting with the west
drift at the 65-foot level. From top
to bottom the Sphinx mine is In a COM
mercial grade of ore and has large bodies
blocked out. 1t is understood that the
management will erect a mill for the
treatment of Sphinx ores in the immed-
late future.

Not more than SO per cent of the ore
was broken down in the Slopes in this
lease by former operators. Work will
begin at once in the various levels.
Shaft sinking is also to be taken up but
before It can be forwarded successfully
il will be necessary to install pumps

LISHMAN
KILLS HIMSELF
THE SAD SEQUEL TO HIS ACCI-
DENT WHILE TRAVELLING TO
THE COAST.

News reached Honolulu early this
morning that Percy Lishman had kill
ed himself, in Vancouver, British Co
lumbia. The sad tidings came in a
cable from Vancouver Masonic Lodge
to the local lodge of which Lishman
was a member, and was a great shock
to many friends here, as we'll as to his
relatives.
Lishman's former attempt to kill
himself, while temporarily deranged
as a result OF an accident, took place
less than three months ago. 1t was
thought that he had fully recovered. He
went to New York and a number of
Honolulu friends saw him there. He
appeared to be in excellent health and
spirits, and talked with his Honolulu
friends of all returning to Hawaii to-
gether. Lishman had already bought
his railroad ticket via the Canadian
Pacific, however. and the others were
returning by different route, so he
came alone across the continent.
The fact that the first message came
from the Masons, is taken to indicate
that Lishman was alone IN Vancouver.
Immediately upon receipt of the
news, orders were cabled to Vancouver
to have the body embalmed and sent
here on the Moana. A request for
particulars was also sent by cable.
There is no doubt in the minds of
his friends that a brain injury, result
ing from his fall on board the steam
er between here and San Francisco,
caused Lishman's suicide. He was
stunned by the fall striking his head,
and it is thought that a blood clot
formed which affected his brain, caus-
ing a subsequent attempt to commit
suicide. The flow of blood which fol-
lowed an effort to cut his throat prob
ably cleared away the brain trouble,
but with returning health and strength
It may have come again, and caused
the final tragedy.
While recovering from the former
injury, Percy Lishman freely and very
intelligently discussed MS own case
He declared most emphatically that he
had never had the slightest idea OF
committing suicide, and had not any
recollection of having cut himself.
"Why should I do such a thing?'
was Lishman's own argument. g

not dream of suicide. Everything is
blank to me after the fall on tn

It is this attitude towards his owl
case, together with his known dispo
sition and the peculiar effect Of strik
