The Ely Mining Expositor says:
Newton Boyd, an old-time Ely

w. H. Bray, of Ely, as associates,

"All | can say about the mines
is that they are looming up in fine
shape" said Mr. Boyd to an Ex-

last Winter no work was done on
our group, but development of the
mines was resumed about three

IdahO's Figures On
"WidOW."
Mathematical Calculation
Demonstrates 1t Should
Contain 10 Points.

A solo expert gives his opinion
as to the average value of a
widow while solo game is in
progress to the Wood River (Idaho)
News-Miner, which is as follows
A simple mathematical calcula-
ton demonstrates that the widow
should contain on an average just
ten points-no more and no less.
There are 30 points in each suit in
solo deck of cards; also four suits,
making 100 points in the deck.
There are 36 cards in the deck.
Hence the average value of card
must be 81 points. As there are
three cards in the "widow" is ten
points. This result might or might
not be shown in 200 deals or g.
600, 900 deals. The widow" can
never contain more than 33 points
on any deal, and TO many mans
sorrow it often does not contain 9
point.

peggy Died This
Morning."

J. C. Leonard, the well known
dentist, traveller and professor, who
visited Battle Mountain several
years ago, travelling in two-mule
rig, had the misfortune to lose one
of the aforesaid mules by death at
Boise, Idaho, recently. The de-
mise of the animal 80 affected the
Doctor that he wrote a Diverse
poem expressive of his feelings and
portraying the good and bad quail
ties of his pet. Peggy Died This
Morning. According to the poem
as a kicker, Opper's famous Maud
isn't in it. When she shuftied off
this mortal coil she was aged but
23 years. The Professor sent a
copy of the rhythmic obituary to
the Sentinel, but we fear should we
reproduce it some of the pathetic
verses would be more than our
readers could stand. At latest ac-
counts, however, the Doctor is still
alive.-Eureka Sentinel.

Particulars of the
Lander Shooting
That Occurred
Last Week.

Tug Wilson, formerly of Tus-
carora, shot and seriously wound
ed Joel HI. Smith at Lander, the
new mining camp twenty-four
miles south Of Beowawe, Wednes-
day evening about 7 o'clock. Mr..
Smith was taken to Elko last
Thursday and placed in the Boil
ing hospital. From Percy Goblin
and Leonard Patterson who ao-
companied the injured man to Elko
gave the Elko Free Press the fol-
lowing particulars:
Farlow and Smith were former
ly partners. They came to Land
er from Ontario, Oregon, where
they were furnished with money
to start in business by man NAM
ed Stewart. Mr.. Smith was faith
full to the trust placed in him and
started in business and was meet
ing with success, while Farlow
squandered his share and made
false reports to Stewart. A few
days since Mr.. Stewart arrived in
Lander and made his home with
Smith. Farlow became jealous
and Wednesday evening accom-
panied by Tug Wilson, who bears
an unenviable reputation, went to
Mr.. Smiths home, called him out
and the two abused him vilely.
Mr.. Smith stood the abuse for
some time but finally struck at one
of the men, when Wilson pulled a
gun and shot him. Wilson was
reaching over Smiths shoulder at
the time, and the bullet ploughed
through the latter's coat and
trousers and entered his right
thigh. Injured as ne was and al
though smaller man than either
of the others he had overpowered
the two when Mr.. Stewart came to
his assistance.
Mr.. Smith is a very popular man,
quiet and unassuming, and there
was much talk in Lander the same
evening of dealing summary pun
ishment to Farlow and Wilson.
Mr.. Smith is married and has
three children. DIR. Jones of Car
lin probed for the bullet Wednes-
day night at Beowawe but could
not locate it. The wound is of a
serious nature but unless blood
poison sets in, which is not prob
able.

Every Man His Own Doctor.

The average man cannot afford to
employ physician for every slight all
ment or injury that may occur in his
family, nor can he afford to neglect
them, as SO slighta an injury as the scratch
of pin has been known to cause the
loss of limb. Hence every man must
from necessity be his own doctor for this
class OF ailments Success often depends
upon prompt treatment which can only
be had when suitable medicines are kept
at hand. Chamberlain's Remedies have
been in the market for many years and

Nevada Climate is
Changing.

The climatic conditions of Ne
yada during the past year have lee
to considerable theorizing. The
climate seems to be growing more
rainy. Even the deserts are being
delayed with the moisture of the
clouds; and such trifies as showers
are OF weekly and sometimes daily
occurrence. This rainy state is by
some alleged to be due to the San
Francisco earthquake of a year ago.
Others say the formation of the
Salton Sea in southern California
by the overflow of the Colorado
river is responsible. A few know
ing ones contend that the equaliza-
tion and agitation of the air cur
rents are doing the tricks. lit is
to be admitted that the burro and
prospector did not create much of
disturbance of the air during
their meanderings and wanderings
over the vastness of the desert. J
And then there are those who in
sist that the electricity now being
used so greatly for power light. and
Transmission, is accountable for the
increased rainfall. 1t is very like
ly that there ore dozens of other
plausible theories, but whatever be
the reason or the cause it is quite
evident that increased precipita-
tion of wet goods is happening re
gularly and gladdening the hearts
of the receivers thereof. Soon all
the wastes will bloom with verdue;
and barren lands will be things of
the unknown past. Very well;
there will be no heart aches here.
