lRy Special Correspondent

CHERRY CREEK, June &C.
General MNsager Cannon and Chief
Engineer Judel of the Nevada North
ern railroad, we're members of a
party which Visited Cherry Creek
Tuesday for the purpose of looking
ver the grotnd to decide on the ad-
Visibility of constructing a branch
from the station to the town of Cher
ny Creek. They expressed themselves
as being very we'll pleased with the
present outlook and future possible
ties of the camp and the projected
branch would greatly increase the ac-
.;yity of the camp. All the business
d mining men of the section are
Ilxiously looking forward to its con-
ystruction.
The Black Metals aiming company,
) located in Silver canyon, made a
a.shipment of carload of ore to the
Bingham smelter last week. Super
!. intendent Blair accompanied the ship
: ment which, he expects, will return
3 good values. The company is now
working a small force of men, which
Lit will increase shortly and active
mining will be pushed, New build
ings are being erected at the mine
for the accommodation of employees,
md a switch is being built on the
Nevada Northern opposite the mine,
n the convenience in shipping. The
HI workings are being cleaned out
hnd re-timhered and the Black Met
Falls should shortly take its place as
one of the steady shippers of the
camp.

vada Consolidated Stock Co has had
a force of men at work the past week
Vn the properties of the Nevada
MNher Lode in Silver canyon. pre-
paraSory to working the property on
an extensive scale. The mine has
been one of the best shippers of the
camp In former years and will no
doubt he better than ever in the flu
tlre.
J. II. Wallace is making a ship
elent of gold ore from his properties
IN Gold canyon which, like all the
pres of that section, is of good value.

ELY AND WALL STREET.

Nevada is feeling the Wall street
pinch, Notwithstanding that the
State is something like 5000 miles
distant from that great money cen
..AN Every industry in the United
|1sates is more or less conditional on
all street, for the keen spectators
that money mart have their fin
prs on the nations pulse and their
cart beats at all times. For the
list three months Wall street has
been more or less panieky and at
least twice during. that period the
c'street' has been on the verge of
collapse, and great money ruction
had it been in the power of specua-
tors to bring one on.
Elys great interests are somewhat
intimately connected with the net
work of Wall street ramifications. 1t
is no wonder, then, that Ely, like all
other sections of the United States,
Is suffering a slight business stagna-
ton. White Pine county presents
opportunities for the investmet of
capital that but few districts can
boast of and no matter what the New
York money market does or does not
do, he day is not far distant when
money will be here to develop coun-
try that has been long neglected and
overlooked in the mad rush for gold
to the neglect of its great copper de-
posits underlying Robinson district.
While the whole depends somewhat
on Wall street for inspiration and
$21.000,000 has heen shipped to Eu-
rope within the last few days and
millions are called for, there are to
he $3.50, 100000 to be thrown back
into the channels of commerce by the
LIST of July in the payment of interest
and dividends. That vast sum can
not be gathered in by the greedy
speculator again in day or month
hence, and it will greatly relieve the
| stringency of the money supply, for
a time at least. Ely must go right
AGn Saving wood" and uncovering
rich deposits of copper, until such
time as thf big smelter is completed
at McGill, when the camp can stand
on its own bottom regardless of Wall
street or ahy other influence. The
big world needs. our copper; our sill
yer is worth upward of so cents per
ounce and our gold is at par the
world over.
Ely is all right; White Pine Will be
doing spot cash business long after
the present generation of Wall street
gamblers have been put shoyeling
comet dust into the sun and earning
their keep by the wseat of their
own brow instead of the sweat of the
brow of the American producer of
every community known to the want
of men. Ely has not yet arrived at
the point of production, but if all
goes well within the coming eighteen
months it will not he necessary to
Invite capital" to come here. for we
shall be producing and giving to the
world a handsome balance every
month, besides taking enough wealth
out of the ground to meet all our

JACK HINES ON
THE GAME OF POKER

Jack Hines, who is to be tried for
the killing of Count Podhorsky, at
Goldfield, is one of the most widely
known characters of the Alaska fever
mining days. He possesses a bright
mind and considerable musical talent.
The following song, which he COM
posed and frequently sang in Alaska
camps, will be remembered by hun
dreds of veterans of the famous gold
fields. 1t came into the possession
of the Fairview New News through
the courtesy of an intimate friend of
Hines, who, together with horde of
Sour Dough" boys, could not but
love the happy-go-lucky nature of the
man whose woes are now crowned
with charge to which the only de-
tense is the "unwritten law"
The Judge was Christian; he played
on the square,
But he figured the cards pretty
close;
He would call out your hand every
time to pair,
And could lay down a full when
he chose.
The ColOnel-he played a more diff
ficult game;
l don't mean to say he would cheat
But he held the top card when the
big betting came,
And some hands that You never
could beat

And as neither the other at poker
could beat,
They played euchre five points for

too,
Till the Judge turned moment his
head;
When the Colonel IN shuffling slipped
the deck through,
And the Judge cut cold one
instead.
L W dS cuCuIO VI COuFSe, Dub the
Judge was amazed
When he lifted four kings from
the lump,
And the Colonel, not feeling a par
ticle daZed,
Turned up red queen for a
trump.
DO you pass, Judge, you say the
Colonel called out,
Look here" said the limb of the
law,
I've mighty queer cards, and if you
are in for bet,
Wen play out this one hand at

The Colonel considered, then wrig-
gled his neck,
Il, too, have a very odd hand;
IF you'll give me that queen from
the top of the deck,
Wen play out the cards as they
stand
I Agreed" said the Judge, for he saw
at glance,
That the Colonel had one of two
things
A full or four queens and he hadn' t
chance
To pun down the pot from four

The Judge Clipped with fifty; the
Colonel came back,
And the Judge answered him with
a raise;
OF the bets that they made l could
get track,
But they piled up like girls in a
chaise.
Hold on," cried the Judge: "I'm
betting no mOres

lNOPP0RTUNE DEATHS.
Men Who, Had They Lived, Might
Have Changed History.

Have Changed History.
julius Caesar was assassinated when
he had almost completed the task OF
consolidating the administration and
dominion Of the Roman empire, and
his death opened the way to that des-
potism and corruption which ultimate
" undid his work. Henry Of Navarro
was killed when he had almost healed
the differences between Catholic and
Protestant which subsequently rent
not only France, but Europe, and VIII
liam the Silent also fell when he was
on the point Of uniting the Netherland
provinces into a compact barrier
against the encroachments Of Spain.
In English history Lord Give died at
the moment when he was the one man
who could have saved the American
colonies and Kept the Anglo-Saxon race
united. But there is the case Of Mira
beau. He was literally the one man IN
France who could have averted the
horrors of the revolution, saved and
reformed the monarchy and so spared
Europe the murderous career OF Napo-
leon and all the devastation 1t brought.
If he had lived ten or even five years
longer, the history not only Of France,
but Of Europe and the world, would
have been different: 1t IS, in fact, suf-
hcient to say that he would have made
both Robespier7e and Napoleon 1mpos-
sible.-Strand Magazine.

A QUEER ISLAND.
Ne Bottom Found In Any Of the Wells

I
Bored In Curacao.
Curacoa is one OF the queerest little
islands in the Caribbean sea. 1t lies
sixty miles north of Venezuela, is about
sixty miles long and twelve or four
teen mSscs wide, and it has popula-
ton Of more than 10000.
There is no means Of procuring fresh
water on the Island except by saving
rainwater in reservoirs. 4 number OF
wells have been bored under the su-
peryision of the Dutch government. to
which it belongs. but each ended IN q
failure.
4 curious statement regarding these
borings IS made by the inhabitants OF
the island They saw that In each
and every case after certain depth
was reached the tools dropped out OF
sight, indicating that there is no solid
foundation to the island The borings
were made in low places and through
hills and in about thirty different
places, each with the same ultimate
result "A few wells have been dug
to a Lesser depth and brackish, IN
pleasant tasting water is obtained, 1T
only for manufacturing purposes.
The approach Of the rainy season IS
always an interesting time. The wa
ter In the reservoir IS low at this time,
and the natives eagerly await the op-
portunity to gather fresh supply.
Clothing is never washed there IN

day the beach is alive with women

The Luscious Grapc.

The grape, whose purple flood man
for century after century has con-
verted into wine, Is Persian by birth.
It's cradle was on the sunny hills to the
south Of the Caspian sea, and there the
ancents ate it and enjoyed its acid
taste. The men Of Caubul ground it
to dry powder and ate 1t with relish,
half as a medicine, half because they
liked it. And then those days went BY
and we hear Of the renowned grapes Of
Palestine, which grew in immense
clusters and weighed fifteen pounds to
the bunch. Noah planted the vine i'm
mediately after the deluge. The book
Of Genesis mentions bread and wine,
and the Israelites complained that
Moses and Aaron had brought them
out Of Egypt into O dry and barren
land where there were neither figs nor
vines
