are going on to give new and won

There is extensive work going on
in old White Fine, and in the same
county Ely, with every stroke OF the

it will be the biggest and most per-

North of Tuscarora, in the old
Mountain City district of gold, the
mines are yielding better than at any
time ,inuo tho late seventies.
The Glasgow and Western has for
several years been developing its ore
bodies until probably it has more ore
in sight than any other company in
the west Except for the trouble of
getting coal, the great works Of the
company at Golconda would be in full
blast. By the way, in those works
the McQUistOn concentration is install
ed, which for concentrating sulphide
ores is the simplest and most Won
derful machine ever devised.
But the new camps are attracting
most attention -Goldfield, Tonopah,
Bullfrog, Yerington, Fairview, Round

TrouShs and many others are all
showing splendidly and the promise
for next year is filled with hope.

interesting Remains of Prehistoric
Man Exhumed in Mexico.

Mexico City.-For the last two
weeks Leopold Batres has been exca-
waiting one of the small artificial hills
to the southeast of the Pyramid of the
Sun. This is one of the tumuli that
form the row of the Street of the
Dead. Here have been discovered
rooms which are apparently a part OF
an ancient temple, with rooms and
patios. Below these stairways lead
to a large room some 30 feet in
length. Apparently there are other
rooms on this level connected with
one another,
These are the first subterranean
houses that have so far been found in

buried city the houses were two or
three stories high. The upper stories
had been destroyed by fire, but the
lower remained untouched, and upon
them there still remains the red paint
which was the characteristic color of
Teotihuacan.
Among the interesting things found
is the skeleton of a man supposed to
have been one of the ancient Toltec
kings. Beside the human skeleton
was that of a tiger and both were
painted red. In addition to these
there were also found large quantities
of sea shells, obsidian beads, jade and

New York Yacht club from Cap

United States. The interior is an ex-

Captain Doullut built the peculiar
house at Egania and North Peters
streets, New Orleans, in which to end
his days. He likes to imagine he is
aboard vessel even when he is at
home, and the interior is so construct
ed as to suggest this at all times. The
house overlooks the Mississippi river
and the captains vessels land directly
in front when they are in that port.
From the cupola the captain can see
the lights of Canal street to the right
and those of Chalmette to the left

Justice Bovine was standing at the
door of the hall when an egg which
had seen better days changed the
color of his brand new hat. Professor
I, Kleger was arrested as being the lead

At the hearing a Mr.. Schenck pro-
duced an egg which he swore he took
from Kleger's hand. 1t was made ex.

not ascertained.
Arthur Clark, counsel for Professor
Kleger, argued that his client could
not be held for the grand jury. 1T
isn't malicious mischief to carry an
egg" he said, "and 1t isn't concealed

Justice Bovine, however, considered
that Kleger's egg was calculated to

The caves and cornices are also built
after a Japanese pattern. The entire
house is ceiled with pressed steel and
finished as deliberately as the saloon
of ship.
The cupola is constructed like a

If a breeze is blowing the captain is
sure to catch it there. The circular
gallery enables the owner to so swing
his hammock as to be in the shade
at any time. Electric lights are used
for Illuminating.
There is an entrance to the yard on
Egania street, but from North Peters
street it is necessary to climb to the
