PROMINENT KNIGHT DEAD

James Morris, of the Tonopah Miner
received a telegram yesterday calling
him to Reno on account of the
death of his brother-in-law, Charles
Knox. Mr.. Knox was an attorney
OF much prominence throughout the
State and had many large mining
interests in Nevada. The deceased
was n of the most prominent citi-
zens of Reno and the State of Ne
vada. He vas one of the foremost
members of the knights of Pythias
and the D. o. X. X. He was ever
loyal to his fraternal societies. In
his demise the State looses an up-
right and valuable citizen. AS an
attorney he had few equals. Mr..
Knox, who has now passed to the
great beyond, will not only be
mourned by the dear relatives, but
by the representative people who
knew him in life but to respect. Mrs.
Morris, who is a sister OF Mr.. Knox.
VIII leave with her husband, this
morning, for Reno to attend the last
rits OF our honored deceased brother
and friend. Peace to his ashes.

Ign, created a sensation by D

ORE IN SIGHT FOR
HUNDRED YEARS
CHARLES PARENT TELLS OF
GREAT MINERAL DEPOSITS
ON CONTINENT.

SALT LAKE, Dec. 29.-Charles
Parent, a Frenchman, who came to
this country in 1879 and who cast
his fortunes with Leadville, as an
assayer and metallurgist, and who
has been up and down the Western
coast from Alaska to all parts of
Mexico, and who, by the way, is a
graduate of the Lysee of France, has
for the first time drifted into Salt
Lake City. He knows this Western
country likt a native and speaks
English, German and Spanish as we'll
as his native tongue. He has Just
returned from Guaymas and Lower
California, where he has lived for
the past ten or twelve years, and re-
ports that the great Boleo copper
mine in Lower California, and Col.
Greene's world-beater at Cananea-
to say nothing of Minas Prietas, have
ore in sight enough to keep them
busy for more than a hundred years.
Mr.. Parent is no superficial mining
man and speaks by the card when
mining is the theme. Especially does
he indorse the Mexican mining laws,
where the apex" question does not
hinder mining development, and
where the lobar question, gives no
trouble.
His admiration for the administra-
tion of President Porfrio Diaz and
Vice-president Ramon Corral and
their coadjutors is pleasant to listen
to. Trusts are unknown and are not
tolerated. and rebates on railroads
are absolutely prohibited.
Although Mexico is called the land
of manana tomorrow, Mr.. Parent
enthuses rel such cities of Mexico,
Guadalejara, Zacatecas, Guaymas.
Chihuahua and the smaller cities,
where people live slower and conse-
quently longer. While Mr.. Parent
was born a strict Catholic, his educa-
ton and broad travel in foreign lands
have b%roadened his mind, and he is
amused at the Importance the atti-
of the church is assuming in
France. From his point of view,
and state ought to be sepa-
rated. In France prelates, priests
and other d~ignitaries are paid. He
has lived SO long in this free coun-
try, where all religions stand on
W bottoms that he is oppos-
ed to any support by the state or
