MACHINERY ON the GROUND

ing Company. which is a subsidiary
company of the smelter corporation.
1--WE are giving more attention to the
development of the Typo and the
Southwestern mines" said Mr.. Rogers,
''than to anything else at the present.
The Typo has a shaft 400 feet deep.
and we have just brought in a COM
pressor, a l00-horsepower boiler, pumps.
pipe line and other machinery for the
mine. We shipped this from Salt Lake
to Eureka, from where We hauled 1t by
team. One carload was shipped on
May % and the other on the 9th. On
June 6 we had that on the wagons at
Eureka, and on June 10 it was landed
at the mine. This is extraordinary,
and we are now getting in lumber the
same way. By hauling to Tonopah
and then out to the mine, 1t is hard to
say when we would get the material.
THE pumps are for the bottom Of the
shaft and the compressor will be used
for the drifts aud the further develop
ment of the mine. We expect to do a
great deal Of work this Summer. We
are going ahead pretty fast at the
Southwestern mines. too, and do not
propose to get stuck this Winter as we
we're last Winter. when we were caught
without supplies. We will provide
against this, although l dare say we
may not have such a Winter again in
years.
1.-The Southwestern mines are at
Reveille, and the shaft is down 300
feet, while a second shaft. 700 feet
away, is down 200 feet. Both these
properties are of lead and silver, and
we are developing them before attempt
ing to do anything with the smelter.
What we need for the smelter are the
basic ores, for there is so much ore OF q
silicious nature, we cannot do without
the other as a fiux. We will get out
the fiuxes first, and then we can &c
ahead with the construction of the
smelter upon sure ground.
1--WE have been very busy out there
since the snow cleared. and we will
crowd the work from this on. We will
have both mines equipped with sup
plies so that there will be no danger oil

Township Office Worth Having

Goldfeld, Nevada. July 15.-An in
vestigation of the records Of the Jus.
tees Court Of Goldfield is now under
way to determine the amount and le-
gality Of the fees collected by Judge
Solomon during his incumbency. which
terminated q few days ago. The law

Solomon neglected to do this. and all
that can be ascertained is that the ag-
gregate of his claims presented to the

civil fees. is about $500. No separate
record of the fines and fees collected
eau be found. and Judge Henley. who

John Patterson, who was assaulted
by q mob at Wonder. and tarred n
feathered on q fimsy charge that ne
had attempted an assault on two little
girls, has commenced proceedings. both
criminal and civil. against his assailants
and says he will push his suit for dam
ages against the county and State.
He has engaged able attorneys md
since the facts have been learned re-
garding the assault by the mob the
sympathy is with Patterson.
Ii seems that Patterson had been
drinking and had visited Wonder from
Hercules, camp and when leaving q
saloon in the former camp by a rear
door. he met a couple Of little girls who
were terrified at his appearance and ran
to their mother screaming. The
mother became excited and hysterrical'
ly conveyed the idea to the miners that
the man had attempted an assault on
her children. She now says that she
may have been mistaken.
Last week L. B. Hahn, j. 7. Elkins,
G. II. Adams, v. L. Adams, r. G.Cone,
Chet Fortune, Ralph Fortune and Ear
Allen. all of Wonder, were arrested on
warrants sworn to by Patterson. The
official charge is 'false imprisonment
All the parties mere named were ar
raigned in Judge Bucknell's court and
each of them waived preliminary ex
animation. giving bond in the sum OF
$500 each to appear before the Grand
Jury.
The entire case has attracted wide

serious one. The statutes of Nevads
prescribe a maximum fine of $4,000 Of
one year in the State Prison. A verdic
against the defendant would also carr,

Orchards self possession amazed the

to the belief that his soul would be
saved IL he would confess his crimes.
He had been afraid to die, he said, be-
cause of his crimes, but after reading
the Bible and receiving spiritual coun-

and this made it easy for him to con-

faithfully he stuck to the truth the bet

He did not expect the forgiveness Of
