WILL CLEAN UP
The MYSTERY

Mysterious" Walter Scott has
been brought to a showdown on his
mining proposition. "Scotty" came
to Rhyolite ON Tuesday and met an
old friend of his by the names of j..
Jones, a contractor on the Shoshone,
Jones has connections that mean
money in any legitimate proposition
and he made "Scotty" an offer.
Louis Schloss of Goldfield and San
Francisco was in the city and Jones
took him in on the deal. The for
mer is a w%ell-known mining man
throughout Nevada.
The next day "Scotty" ditched his
wife put her on the train bound for
the East, and, climbing up on his
high seat, with his brace of sixshoot-
ers and his Winchester and Jones on
the seat beside him, shook out his
ribbons and took to the trail, headed
for Death valley. Where he was
going and how long he would be on
the road he would not say. The out
fit consisted of five mules and a
heavy blackboard, well loaded with
sacks and boxes.
The plan was to get samples and
make maps of "Scotty's" mine, and
if the property proved to be as rep
resented, Jones and Schloss were to
take it over and pay Scotty's price.
This incident bids fair to clear up
the mystery of death Valley Scot
ty' and his mine.-Bullfrog Miner.

IRISH TO HOBO CITY

A remarkable strike was recently
made by two tramps, who were beat
ing their way through the hills
while headed for Masonic district.
They were crossing a hill and saw
something g~littering and on picking
it up found it to be a piece of rock
carrying enormously high values in
gold. They gathered some seventy
five pounds Of this stuff and took
it in to Gardnerville, and with the
proceeds bought a wagon and team
with which they started out to make
further exploration.
Nine claims were located by them
and a surveyor is now running out
their lines.
The new town will be called Hobo

of Fletcher and and a half miles
south of Summit station. At once
there was a rush to the new find and

The funeral of Walter Cronin,
who was shot by his wife on last
Friday night, was held yesterday
afternoon, a solemn requiem mass

back to the Jail, and will be ar
raigned this morning. Her attorneys

THATCHER gets
LEASE ON DAISY

Captain G.. w, Thatcher arrived
in camp this week and inspected the
different workings on the Round
Mountain Daisy. He expressed him
self to the Nugget as well pleased
with the showings made on the diff
ferent leases and in the company's
working shaft, which has reached a
depth of 100 feet.
The new gasoline hoist and forty
foot gallows frame on the shaft will
be completed and in running order
next week, when sinking will be re-
sumed and continue to the 200-foot
level.
Captain Thatcher has secured a
lease on a portion of the Daisy hold
ings embracing the Munholland lease
and will commence active operations

ing out milling ore, which is being
hauled to the Chapman-Moore mill
on Shoshone creek.
The shaft on the slim" Morgan
lease is down eighty feet and good
values have been found at this
depth.
This property has the earmark'
of a great mine. The Daisy was The
first mine in the district to ship our
high grade ore. The ore shipped run
as high as $1,000 per ton.
Mr.. Thatcher, who is a director
and heavy owner in the property, il

PEAVINE JOHNNIE
CASE DROPPED

The case of Peavine Johnnie, or
Johnny Peavine, against the Clifford
family on the claim of grubstaking
contract, has been dropped from the
calendar by Judge Breen, this having
been one of his honor's last official
acts, prior to resigning. Johnnie's
contract was a verbal one, it was al
legged, and in disposing of the case,
Judge Breen called attention to the
aew law enacted by the last legisla-
ture, which makes 1t compulsory for
all contracts for grubstaking to be
in writing, and to be recorded to be
effective. otherwise such contracts
are null and void.
