Dan LeBarron came in from Jack
son Mountain last Friday and express
es the opinio that the North Antelope
district is one of the best in the
state. He says the mineralized area
averages larger than any other dis
trict he has ever been in, covering ap-
proximately some 20 miles square.
Minerals of several varieties are founi
in large quantities and are generally
of high values. Up to the present
time there has been discovered lodges
containing copper quicksilver, ga
lena and gold, all lying in well defined
lodges. Nearly all the properties in
the vicinity are being extensively
worked, and though financial cond:
tions are at present in an upheaval,
it appears to have no effect upon
the constant prospecting being carried
on. Mr.. LeBarron's trip to Winnie
mucca is in connection with a mechan-
icai device called LeBarron's transl
tion of power to windmills, Iiich he
believes will be one of the great fac
tors in making the deserts bloom with
all kinds of agriculture. He has one
of the appliances at present in opera
tion on his ranch and has found It
very successful.
H. c. Schranz, well known in Gold
banks, came to Winnemucca last Sat
urday. He says that Goldbanks is
constantly going ahead. Larry Sulli-
van started work on the property late
ly secured from B. Scheil and reports
that he will continue with the work
now being done.
G. Blair has now reached the 92-
foot level and values seem to remain
the stme as last reported.
joining the original strike made by
Mr.. Schranz has several claims ad.
Smith and Anderson and considers
them as good as any in the camp.
The townsite is progressing and
Morris has erected a building on his
own lot in the upper part of town, to
which he will move his restaurant.
Having accomplished his work for
this year, Mr.. Schranz is now on his
way home to Colorado Springs to
spend the holidays, but will return
and take chances with the rest at
Goldbanks.

By decision of Judge Robins las
Friday damages to the full amount
claimed were awarded T. O'Donnell in
the suit of O'Donnel versus Leniger.
1t appears that Mr.. O'Donnel missed
some lumber which he claimed was
taken by G. Leniger, sub-contractor
for the Western Pacific during last
summer. This suit was instituted to
secure the valuation of the lumber
from Mr.. Leniger, who refused to
pay, alleging he was not aware of the
lumber being taken by any of his EN-
ployes.

Prof. Moore Says Weather Recollec-
lions Are Untrustwortby.
Prof. Willis L. Moore, chief Of the
weather bureau, is rejoicing that the
country was swept by blizzard dur
ing the last days of winter, for the
reason that he believes that Is the only
way to convince people Of the error
in the idea that the winters are be-
coming milder and the climate Is
changing He sees financial ruin to
many as a result of entertaining these
conceptions. so nothing suits him bet
ter than to have experience give
dreamers some pointed lessons, says the
New York Tribune.
"Why, the blizzard In 1885," Prof.
Moore will say in his medltations,

telling your boys that occurred every
winter when you were a youngster and
that the weather is not what is used
to be-
Shortly after Adam and Eve began
to take interest in affairs arose the
story about the climate growing mild
er, the professor believes. He is able
to trace back this weakness in per-
ception and memory to Thomas Jeffer-
son and Prof Moore has such conf
dence in Jefferson that he regards him
as typical of human nature through the
centuries past The chief of the
weather bureau points out in papers at
the State Department where Jefferson
wrote: 1T is apparent that the climate
Of Virginia is changed. The old In
habtants here tell me that they re-
member when snow lay on the ground
four months of the year and they rode
in sleighs. Now it is rare that we get
enough snow to have a sleigh ride. II
is apparent that the climate Of Virginia
has changed since 1901 when the set
tiers came into Jamestown
There has been a great deal of
clearing in the thickly wooded country
Of Virginia since 1907" vcntured Prof.
Moore, but really that would not
change ii. The change vas In the men
who were telling the story. We meas
ure things by different standard as
we grow older. Every man when he
gets to be so years Of age will look
back and think OF one great snow

cause all he remembers as he thinks
back is tie one snowstorm. He remem-

INTELLIGENCE OF THE BEE.
Transported to California, Ceases to
Deserve tho name of Busy.

1t would be easy without appealing
to any prehistoric event to bring to-
gether Il large number of facts that
would show that the faculty of adapta-
ton and intelligent progress is not re-
served exclusively for the human race.
Transported to Australia or Califor-
mia, our black bee completely alters her
habits. After one or two years finding
that summer is perpetual and flowers
forever abundant, she will live from
day TO day. content to gather the honey
and pollen Indispensable for the days
consumption, and her recent and
thoughtful observation triumphng over
hereditary experience she will cease to
make provision for her winter. Buchner
mentions an analogous fact which also
proves the bees adaptation 10 circum-
stances, not slow, secular, unconscious
and fatal but immediate and intclli-
gent. In Barbados the bees, whose
hives are in the midst OF the retineries,
where they find sugar in plenty during
the whole year, will entirely abandon
their visits to the flowers.
Let US lastly recall the amusing con
tradiction which the bees gave TO two
learned entomolOgsts, Darby and
Spence.
SHOW US" said these, "a single case
in which under stress of circumstances
the bees have had the idea of substi-
tuting clay or mortar for wax and pro-
polls and we will admit their reasoning
faculties"
Hardly had they expressed this some
what arbitrary wish when another nat
uralist, Andrew Knight, having coated
the bark of certain trees with a sort of
cement made Of wax and turpentinr.
observed that his bees entirely ceased
to gather propolis and used only this
new and unknown substancewhich they
found prepared for them in abundance
in the neighDorhood of their home.
Moreover, in the practice Of agricul-
ture when pollen is scarce the beekeep-
er has but to place at their disposal A

Of the majority is so strictly recognized
that the rules of the House of Com
