fraud.

Need OF Charity Doard.

s
Richard Evelyn Byrd. OF Winchester.
Thursday. His paper, The Need of a.
State Board OF Charities" was read.
In part he said:
A long experience as prosecuting
attorney with the administration of
penal laws has produced in my. mind
the convinced belief that certain re-
forms are urgently needed.
The punishment of criminals is a
measure OF defense on the part of So
ciety. and yet the punishment may be
to the community rather than protec-
ton.
II a criminal is brutalized or deteri-
Grated in mind or boe>. upon his dis.
and physical infection. and thus re-
venges himself upon society.
There can be no question that many
of our jafls and almshouses become
places Of MORAL and physical u c on
ties. consisting of say seven men and
two women, should be created by the
Legislature.
This board should serve without pay
power. 1t should make periodical re-
ports to the Governor. who should In
turn send the reports to the General
Assembly. A we'll selected State Board
would subserve the following useful
purposes:
(i) Bring to the study OF penalogy .
rational. organized and continuous ac-
tivity.
(25 Accumulate data and experience
which may be organized into useful
knowledge.
(3) Supplement the present made
quate governmental machinery.
(4) Produce condition OF prepared
ness in the penal and eleemosynary In
stitutions of the State, because of an
ticipaton OF an inspection by the board
or one OF its agents.
CD Make prisons what they should
be-instruments OF regeneratIons as
we'll as places Of punishment.

PROSPEROUS COMERFORD

Prosperity is coming to Tom Conner
ford in chunks and gobs in fact it is
coming to him like females to a Nor
mon. Some months ago Comerford
drifted in here from the southern coun-
try. and with his partner, George Prin-
gle, purchased the Commercial Hotel.
The price paid was Sc, 900, or there
abouts. Today he could sell the prop
erty for $4,000. Besides this invest
ment he has made some real estate deals
which have netted him few thousand.
And last, but not least his business of
hog raising is hourishing. When he
purchased the hotel an old SOW pig went
in with the bargain. 1t was not long
before she presented Comerford with a
litter of twelve pigs. This was an or
binary transaction, but when, week or
two later the SOW gave birth to another
litter of FIVE pigs Comerford was sur
prised, but shook hands with himself,
treated and looked wise. Then, again,
last week this same SOW gave birth to
another litter of pigs, and Comerford' S
surprise was of the hilarious kind. He
heralded the news abroad and made fire.
quent visits to the ranch to see how the
young porkers were getting along. He
is now HTmly convinced tndt lnlS is the
most prolific country he ever struck. 1t
is fact that this one SOW has produced
three litters of pigs inside of two months,
and Tom is keeping his weather eye
open for more. He will guard the swine
jealously and raise them carefully with
the fond hope that when the females of
the herd grow up they will emulate the
fecund proclivities of their mother
Should such be the case Tom will start
pork packing establishment of his own.

new CAMP OF RAWHIDE

Z. A. Mcleod, al Bovard and Chas
Holman report considerable activity in
the new camp of Rawhide, Esmeralda
county. This new district is some 80
miles east of Schurz, ard Mcleod and
his partners recently made some very
hne discoveries there In the past two
weeks two groups of claims have been
sold in the district by Mr.. Stockton
and his partners, one for S45, 900 and
the other for $4,000 and ten per cent.
OF the stock in an incorporated company.
A prospector owning a group of claims
next to McLeod's has refused 1000 for
his holdings. On the Nash property a
double compartment shaft has been
started and tunnel is being run Nc
Leod and partners have started a we'll at
Rawhide and expect to get water at a
depth of SO feet or less new we'll has
also been dug at Dead Horse, about 10
miles south of Rawhide, on the main
road. and this makes it easier to get into
the new district Mcleod and partners
are getting some nice showings on their
claims. Nearly the whole country
around there has been located, and some
good prospects have lately been found.
Mining men are getting into the district
and there is every indication that there
will be a big camp there before the SUM-
mer is over

RENO -YERINGTON COPPER
COMPANY TO THE FRONT

AS predicted, the Copper Center group,
comprising six claims, the property of
the Reno Yerington Copper Company
is coming to the front. This company
was organized in February of this year
and Immediately commenced operations.
A tunnel 400 feet long was decided on
to cut 35-foot vein cropping above and
showing fine copper, carrying gold in
paying quantity. This tunnel has been
advanced 200 feet and last week encoun-
tered another vein feet wide The ore
is sulphides and black oxides and will
run at least IS per cent copper. The
bottom, or floor of the tunnel, cuts the
top of the vein about six inches and
runs at right angles with the bore. This
strike is important, especially to adloin-
ing properties owned by others, as the
vein will run into adjoining claims east
and west of the tunnel. A day and night
shift is engaged in the tunnel and it is
expected that within the next 100 feet
the big vein will be met on its dip.
Every indication is that when the large
vein is tapped there will be an immense
body of ore. The company is to be COM
mended for its development work done
with it's own money and without selling
share of stock. The wisdom of this
course will soon be apparent Something
will be doing when that mammoth vein
is tapped by the tunnel

YERINCTON WATER co

The Yerington Water Company, COM
posed mainly of home people, with R.
l.. Dunn, President, has purchased
site for pumping plant and tank on
the other side of the river, had surveys
made and estimates for the plant. 1t is
the intention of the company to pump
water from we'll to be sunk near the
river, where the filtered water from the
river can be obtained. This water will
be pumped into large tank, or tanks,
on the hill across the river and will have
a fall of 10 feet in reaching the town.
The company will put in an S-inch main
from the tank to town, and the mains to
carry the water through the main parts
of the city will be o-inch in diameter,
while the laterals will be 4-inch pipes.
The fall is sufficient to give good force
for FIVE purposes and will be a great
thing in the way of reducing insurance
rates. Mr.. Dunn is now in San Fran
cisco on business connected with the
perfection of plans, securing estimates
for pipes, ETC., and upon his return the
work of construction will soon begin.

new DISTRICT
Looks GOOD

Quite number of people have made
locations during the past week in the
new district discovered in Smith Valley,
east of the Fallon ranch. Among these
are F. c. Ehlers and his partner, A.
Schafer, of this place. They have
brought in some nice samples of copper
ore from these claims George Warren
was one of the discoverers of the district
last Fall, and another prospector, by the
name of S. A. Kifnmel, was in on the
ground early. w. S. Fuller, who gave
us the news of the district last week,
also has some good prospects The dis
trict may not prove to be large
one, but some good mines are very
liable to be developed there. The ledges
do not crop prominently, but the section
is capped with an iron gossan, which,
when pierced, invariably shows good
copper ore.

BUCKSKIN LOOKS GOOD

l.. c. Gates was in from Buckskin the
first of this week and reports consider
able activity in that camp. He has an
18-horse power gasoline hoist on the
ground for his company, the Buckskin
Gold Nugget, and it will be running in
side of ten days. The shaft on this
property is now down 80 feet. but work
is at standstill for want of timbers. This
shaft will be dropped down to a depth of
400 feet when the hoist is started and
the ground will be thoroughly prospect
ed by prosecuting.
At depth of 90 feet on the Cham
pagne lease on the Kennedy Con. water
has been encountered, and at this point
some very high grade copper ore is
showing up. The ore is cuprite with
a sprinkling of native copper The own
ers of this lease will also soon have a

COPPER STRIKE IN
CHURCHILL
CANYON

Some very nice samples of copper ore
were brought in this week from a strike
made in Churchill Canyon last week by
Billy Lee, Dennis Lynch and Fred Bark
er, who have been prospecting in that
locality for some time past. The boys
have made ten or twelve locations and
think they have something good. They
have made camp about mile and a
half up the canyon from where the road
from Yerington to Dayton crosses, and
their claims are but a short distance from
their camp. The ore exhibited is a cup
rite with plentiful sprinkling of sui
phides, and in sinking a ten-foot hole
three feet square OH the ledge the entire
hole is in ore. Assays show values of
6 to Is per cent in the red metal. The
find is in section that has been but lit
tie prospected, but it is, without doubt,
a continuation of the great Yerington
district to the north and west The ore
is identical with that of numerous ledg-
es in the range of the Douglas. Blue
stone, Buckskin and the entire western
portion of the district.
