RUCKSKIN IS A
PROVEN CAMP

Robert Falcke, who is equally
interested with Mccormick, Ward
Il Champagne in the mines which
that company CONTROLS at Buck
skin, is in Genoa on = short visit
to his mother. He reports that
their property is now beyond the
prospecting age and that the large
bodies OF high grade copper ore
which have been cut Oh their prop
erty conclusively demonstrates that
Buckskin is proven camp. Ore
is now being shipped regularly to
the smelters and the returns thus
far received are very encouraging.
Two gasoline hoists are now being
used to hoist the pay ore to the
surface of the ground where it is
sacked and made ready for ship
ment. Other properties in tbs
camp are looking equally as good
and without question Buckskin IL
destined to be one of the biggest
copper camps in Nevada.

the owners of the Alpine Telegraph
company for some time. The n "
company will take over all of the

installed in the local office and the
entire system will receive a gen.

Iean1Sfer
Killed Near
Woodfords

A fatal accident occurred near
Woodfords last Tuesday in which
Fred Schockton had his neck
broken by falling from a high seat
of a four-horse wagon. The un-
fortunate man was employed by
Will DRESSER and was hauling
wood from point near Woodfords
at the time of his unexpected
death. In returning to the hills
it appear that Stockton, not being
acquainted with the road, took the
wrong route and did not discover
his mistake until he had travelled
some distance, when he noticed the
team he was to follow, on the road
above him. Not wishing to turn
back and traverse the distance al
ready covered he took . direct
route to the main road and over
a rough stretch Of ground. 1t was
with great difficulty that the driv-
er clung to his high seat. When
all danger seemed past and after
his leaders had gained the main
road, the front wheel struck .
rock and the unexpected jar threw
the driver headformost to the
ground, striking on his head and
shoulder, breaking bis neck and
resulting in instant death. The
other teamster witnessed the acci-
dent and hurried to assist his
friend but upon his arrival found
that all signs Of life had vanished.
The remains were brought to
Gardnerville awaiting instruction
from relatives in regard of the dis
position to be made. Mr.. Dressler
wired to Z sister of the decea sed liv-
ing at Oakland, and yesterday an
answer was received asking to bury
the remains of her brother here,
and accordingly, her wish will be
complied with, the burial taking
place in Garden cemetery this
afternoon.

WILD TRIBE OF POETS.
Picturesque People That Are Found in
the Philippines.

Among the wild tribes to be found
in the Philippines are the Bogobos,
the most picturesque people in the
tropics. Their origin is unknown,
and all sorts of opinions have been
expressed concerning them. One tale
told of them is that their first ances-
tors were all poets and musicians,
and that the dislike for the practical
which is always noticeable among
them has come down through the gen.
erations.
Those that have taught among the
Bogobos say that given a song or
a poem to learn and they will study
and dream over it for hours, but give
the Bogobo a problem in arithmetic
and he Immediately becomes i'll and
wants to go home.
Living at Santa Cruz, in the Davao
district, is Miss Benedict. a Chicago
university woman, who is collecting
everything peculiar to the Bogobo.
1t has been found that the bead
work done by them is quite like that
of the American Indian, but there is
10 other likeness in the races be-
yond that.
