The Owl.

The owl has always been called the bird of
heroisn and the emblem of wisdom. Perhaps it is
because he flies about at night and makes a
curious melancholy noise, that sounds like per-
retual who whol who!"
There are many different kinds Of owls, from
the great horned OWL two feet high, to the little
bits of fellows, and the burrowing owl, Nhich is
about as large as a pigeon and which makes its
home underground.
The last owl is not very honest in the way he
ACQUIRES his home. Instead of taking the trouble
10 dig out house for himself, he goes to the cosy
little residence. already made of quiet little
prairie-dog. who is too peaceful and tmid in dis
position to dispute the matter There he selects

But the usual home of owls is in old
mined building or in the hollow trunk of trees.
There thew sleep all day, and at night start out
forage in search of something to eat. The owl
does not seem very particular about his food. Any
small animal he can catch makes meal for him.
Rabbits rats and mice, even frogs, toads and such
small fry. he will eat carry home to his nursery
full of hungry owlets
Most owls are of dark, grave colors, gray

that he can travel about the country unseen to
search for his food Owls live almost the whole

GOLCONDATAKES
ON new LIFE

Golconda, Humboldt county, is not
the quiet village that it was for a
good many years. Ever since the. big
reduction works of the Glasgow &
Western Exploration company re-
sumed operations the town has as
sumed the aspect of commercial
center. But it is not the operation OF
the big mill alone that has infused
new life into Golconda. OF more I'M
portance in bringing about renewed
activity are the mines of the Gold
Run district, which are beginning to
attract the attention of the mining
world. Mines that have lain idle for
years are being reopened and pros
poets found in the past year are fast
being developed into paying prop
critics.
Large lodges or dykes of a So
called dry bone quartz, which We're
thought to be barren of mineral
have been found to contain paying
values in gold and silver. These
lodges traverse the country for long
distances and if the values continue
down the Gold Run district will be
one of the wonders of the state.

Several Good Prospects That Only
Require Developing to Make

John Popovich returned from a
visit to Dolly Warden and Mizpah
Thursday night. He says those camps
are looking very well. He speaks
enthusiastically of the recent strike
made by the Millick brothers in Dol

twenty tons of shipping lead ore on

in one shaft and ten feet in another.
George M. Nix, who Is managing
director of the Dolly Warden Copper
company, Mr.. Popovich says is work
ing five men on his property. They
have been at work for the past two
weeks digging trenches hunting for
the vein, but that work has been
completed, and the vein found. They
are now sinking prospect shafts, but
Mr.. Nix is considering starting a
working shaft and going down 500
feet. The Dolly Warden Copper COM
pany has ore in every one of its
claims on the surface.
Jim Moore has a shaft down 155
feet on one of his claims and the
bottom of the shaft is In good ore.

struck white iron at depth of 60
feet and passed through several

The assessment work is being done
on several good prospects.
The Tenderfoot in Mizpah will
likely start work shortly. A shaft
is now down about 100 feet, but 1t
has reached the water level and
pumps will have to be installed be-
fore it can be pushed to greater
depth.
The Nevada Northern has closed
down on account of bad air in the
bottom of its shaft and fan Will
have to be put in to furnish pure all

WITHOUT
AN UMPIRE FAILED

CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-Arbitration
without an umpire proved to be a
failure in the case of the packing
house transfers and their employers.
Negotiations were broken off today
after the arbitrator for the second
time had failed to agree. on an UNI
pire A strike of the packing house
teamsters was averted several weeks
ago by an agreement being entered
into to arbftrate the question of a
cent an hour increase to all team
sters. At a meeting held on the
evening of the threatened strike, the
teamsters decided to defer action in
the interest of arbitration. The
strike vote still stands, as no motion
was recorded to rescind the action
taken by a vote of the membership.
The business agent of the transfers
union may call strike of the team
sters at any time without voting to
place the matter before the rank and
| file of the men.

WILL MAINTAIN
STEADY OUTPUT

According to advices from Milford,
Utah, things are picking up in the
Bradshaw district of Beaver county.
A letter states that Manager j. M.
Reynolds of the Hecla company has
loaded so tons of ore from that new
property for shipment to the smelter,
and the report is verified at the COM
pany's offices in Salt Lake. Man
ager Reynolds expects the ore to
bring 500 ton or better. The
property will maintain regular out
put from now on, and the opinion in
Milford Is that the Hecla is a real
mine.
Abe Fortheringham has also just
started to market lot of 80 tons OF
ore from the King of the Hills that is
expected to go $40 to $50 to ton.
He will also join the regular list
of shippers. The owners of the Gre
ole are also hauling to Milforn from
that property. and other claim own
ers are preparing to make shipments.

QUARREL OVER RELIGION
HAS DISASTROUS ENDING
Mike Zalovich Was Badly Slashed
BY Peter Popovich, Who
Escaped.

A bloody battle took place last
Thursday night between Peter Popo-
vice, Greek Catholic, and Mike Zal-
ovich, Roman Catholic. in which
the latter was badly wounded. The
trouble was the result of religious
argument Thursday was st. Eliza S
day in the Greek church and because
Zalovich had worked during the day
Popovich deemed it an insult to his
religion and attempted to butcher
the former.
The two met in saloon at Reipe-
town and the Greek drew long
knife, and when his opponent said
he had the right to work on st
Eliza's day because he was a Roman
Catholic the other Catholic began
operations. He cut Zalovich under
the arm, injuring one of the nerves
and came very nearly severing an
artery. Had he done SO death would
no doubt have resulted.
The injured man swore to a com.
plant yesterday and Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Zurich had Popovict
charged with assault with intent tC
commit murder. The prosecuting
witness accompanied Mr.. Zurich and
Constable Ed. Gilbert to Reipetowr
last night, where a search was made
for the alleged assailant.
