MINES LAY OFF
NON-AMER|CANS
Foreign Element to be Supplanted
by Americans."EIy an -Ameri.
can Camp.

Following their policy to make Ely
an American camp, the big mining
companies have begun to discharge
the foreign laborers that had been
employed there for some time.
The places that these men have
held are being filled by American la7
Dor. There has been no material re-
duction in the actual number of men
employed, as American workmen are
substituted for the foreigners as rap
idly as possible to secure them.
While it may seem at first sight
that this is sign of hard times, it is
in reality good thing for the camp.
The foreign element such as has been
released, spends no money other than
for the barest necessities of life.
They hoard their earnings, spending
scarcely 10 per cent with the business
men of the community where they
are employed, and send most of their
savings out of the country.
The native born workingman, on
the other hand, spends his money for
good living, good clothes and for
the comforts of life, and helps to
build up and maintain a good bust
ness condition.

THIRD HAMILTON VICTIM
Miss Mary MattsOn Dies After Brief
IIlncss-May Ask for
Help.

Another death has occurred at
Hamilton from diphtheria. The vic
tim in this case was Miss Mary Matt
son, about 2S years old, who died yes
terday after an Illness of less than
twenty-four hours.
Miss Mattson was attacked by the
disease which developed with start
ling rapidity, according to courier
who arrived here last night. She was
apparently in good health Friday, but
was attacked by what was at first
supposed to be an aggravated case of
sore throat or tonsiltis. Her con-
dition grew steadily worse for sew
eral hours, when the courier was sent
to Ely for medical aid
At Moorman's ranch, fourteen
miles from Hamilton, he received a
telephone message stating that Miss
Mattson was dead.
Tt is understood that County Ply
sician Wallace will be asked to go
to Hamilton and make an investiga-
ton into health conditions there.
Miss Mattson is the third victim to
die of the disease within ten days.

BRILLIANT CELEBRATION
At G0LDFIELD TODAY

Railroad day at Goldfield will be
observed today, and it is thought
that the occasion will be the most
brilliant in the history of the mining
city. The chief event of the day will
be the driving of the golden spike
marking the completion of the Las
Vegan and Tonopah railroad into
Goldfeld. This will means the COM
pletion of the lines of steel binding
Nevada's golden zone to the COM
mercial, industrial and financial CEN
ters of America.
1t will mark the day of the greatest
victory Goldfiefd has ever scored, and
the celebration will undoubtedly be
of lively character. The days cele-
bration, SO far as the railroad is con-
cerned, will be in the hands of the
Commercial club of Goldfield.

MAKES UGLY FIGHT
TO ESCAPE OFFICER
BERT DRAPER GIVES MARSHAL
BUTLER STRENUOUS STRUG-
GLE AFTER ARREST.

Bert Draper is the name given by
a stranger who was arrested late
Saturday night after putting up a
vicious fight against Deputy Marshal
AL Butler, who alleges he caught him
in the act of trying to break into the
house of City Marshal John Hudg-
ins.
City Marshal Hudgins was not at
home Saturday evening, and Mrs.
Hudgins was alone.
Some one made an attempt to en-
ter the front door, which was locked.
Mrs. Hudgins asked who was at the
door The man replied:
You'd better open that door, for
I'll get in anyway
Mrs. Hudgins was frightened, but
retained her presence of mind, and
running to the telephone, called Dep
uty Marshal AL Butler to her rescue.
Deputy Marshal Butler ran hastily
to the Hudgins home, which Is near
by, and saw Draper leaving the prem
ises. Draper put up some resistance,
but was taken to the jail after a
short sharp struggle.
When Deputy Marshal Butler
opened the Jail door to put Draper
in a cell, Draper broke and ran, and
Butler was compelled to fire shot
in the air to bring the fellow to a
halt.
When Deputy Marshal Butler over
took the man, Draper put up vicious
fight and nearly oserpowered the Of
ficer. Butler stunned him by striking
him a glancing blow on the head, and
Draper was then returned to the Jail.
At the Jail door he again became
vicious and made harder fight for
his liberty than before. 1t was not
until he had been knocked out that
he could be put in his cell.
Draper had been drinking, the Of
ficer says, but was not intoxicated
Yesterday morning he asked what he
had done to cause his arrest, and
professed the most profound ignor-
ance as to his actions Saturday night

CATION is completed by the officers

LARGE AMOUNT ORE
BEING BLOCKED OUT

At the Veteran work is being push
ed vigorously on the 500 level by
Mine Foreman Gallagher. The level
appears in splendid shape. Churn
drill holes, wines and upraises which
have been made in ore together with
the ore opened in drifts and cross

nearness of termination of the ore
Temporary work in this crosscut has
been suspended, the operating force
having been turned to other work on
the level which had fell behind while

BURGLAR GETS BUSY
IN CLOTHING STORE
BREAKS LOCK, OPENS SHOW
CASE, AND STEALS MANY
WATCHES AND PIPES.

The clothing store of Wade & Co.,
which is now in the hands of Receiver
William B. Root, was broken into
Saturday night after the store was
closed, and number of articles were
stolen.
Entrance was gained by knocking
the lock off the back door, after
which the burglar went to the front
of the store and broke open show
case, stealing a number of watches,
pipes and other articles.
The work was evidently that of an
expert, and no clue was left upon
which the officers may base their in
vestigation.

FANCIES FOR LATE SUMMER.
Original Features Put Forth by
Partisan Costumers.

However much the late season may
lack in great originality there are
quite certain to be minor features de-
veloped. The very latest news from
Paris is to the effect that wine and
strawberry tints are much seen and
that rich, deep blues appear to be
given preference over the brighter
sorts. Also, we are told that the
sleeveless guimpe blouse and princesse
gown are the favorites, but that they
are cut out with only a moderate
decollette neck, so that little of the
guimpe beneath is shown.
The wide kimono sleeves are by no
means becoming to all figures, and it
was almost foregone conclusion that
the big armholes with narrow sleeves,
or with trimming to simulate them,
would be developed. More and more
is the tendency toward simplicity of
trimming on the skirts to be noted,
and more and more certain does it be-
come that the comparatively plain
skirts with elaborate blouses will
make feature of the autumn.
Just now Paris dressmakers are
using the flmiest possible materials
with tucks or folds as their trim
mings, but weighted at the lower edge
with hens of contrasting and heavier
fabric, and this treatment quite as
we'll as the bordered stuffs is looked
for throughout the coming season. The
contrasting hens allow of color and
fabric effects, at the same time that
they serve definite, practical end,
and when utility and beauty are COM
bined there seems every reason for
any fashion to take as firm a hold as
is possible in matters of the sort Just
now heavy linen is being used in this
way, and late summer costumes are
made of net with hens of the linen
that are either, plain or braided with
soutache, as may be liked. Separate
coats of linen, too, are being greatly
used, and linen is given prominence
during these late weeks of the sum-
mer season.

t1veen France and Germany.

The prince of Monaco, occupant of

forced himself into the role of interna-
tional peacemaker:
Formerly he owed his notoriety
mainly to the fact that the gambling
palace of Monte Carlo is located with
in his domain, in fact furnishes the in
come which maintains it, but now
the prince is taking himself more seri-
.ously.
Diplomats give him credit of doing
more to bring about a new and closer
relation between France and Germany
than all the statesmen of both coun-
tries combined.
The prince advanced the PROPOSE
ton to the kaiser himself that France
aad spent the last decade building up
friendships among the powers, while
Germany had pursued policy of iso-
latiOn. He further showed that the
greatest card that England and Russia
had to play was the traditional hatred
between France and Germany, and
that this was used again and again
with effect in every case where the
interests of the two nations could be
made to appear in conflict. In this
manner wise heads of the other ma
tons of Europe get the better of the
situation right along.
The prince of Monaco has perfected
an elaborate plan, which involves a
frank understanding between France
and Germany in which both agree to
lay aside the old animosities, France

day winning back Alsace and Lor.

The present is the best time of year
to pick up goods for making jackets

tiers so flooded with silk remnants that
are adapted to the Innings Of these
garments:
Despite the influx of new models,
the eton jacket has held it's own in
popular taste, and for some figures it
Is by far the most becoming model

show this seasons mark upon it. It

Beads Modish,

If there is any thought of beads 60.
ing out of style, present conditions do
not indicate it. There are new styles,
large beads in irregular shapes, small
beads of pretty patterns, good ones,
precious gems and some decidedly
cheap, though, strange to say, very
pretty. Women are wearing all kinds
and to many women they are very be-
coming. Amber is favorite color
at present, since the color looks beau
tiful worn with the new brown tints.
Genuine amber beads are expensive,
but there are some very clever imi-
tations in the market which will sat-
isfy most women. Many cheap beads
can be made more elegant in ap-
pearance by stringing them on plat
mum wire and using gold clasps. It
is the cheap cotton string and brass
clasp which gives more evidence Of
cheapness than Che beads.

Value of Feeding Materials

The feeding value Of any stock food
depends mainly upon the amounts OF
carbohydrates, fat, and protein con-
tanned in the feed that is capable Of
being used by the animal body in the
process Of digestion.
Carbohydrates, fat, and protein are
names given to classes Of compounds
present in all feeds. The carbohy-
drates in feeding materials are mainly
composed of common starch, cane
sugar, grape sugar, gums, and crude
fiber, commonly called wood fiber"
The carbohydrates are produced so
abundantly, SO cheaply, and in so
many crops that the value of a feed
containing them in large amounts, to
the exclusion of fat or protein, is usu-
ally relatively low. They are more
difficult to digest than fat, and when
digested they do not produce the re-
suits that fat does. It requires 2.27
pounds of carbohydrates to accomplish
the same work, or produce the same
effects in an animal, as does one
pound of fat This again makes them
Of less value for feeding purposes than
the fats. In digestion, gums and 1bers
are probably not used by the animal
in the process of nutrition. They are
said to be digested to slight extent
but the materials produced from them
are very likely not used, but pass off
as waste products, thus losing the
identity of the original constituents,
which are often reported to be digest
ed" Starch and sugars are, for the
most part, digested, and when so acted
upon by the animal are used in the
production of energy and heat, and
what is left over is stored in the body
of the animal as fat.
Fat In food is just another name
for oil, they mean the same. Cotton
seed oil, linseed oil, corn oil, olive oil,
are some of the common fats found in
foods, and when extracted by chemi-
cal analysis are termed ''crude. fat. -
Fats are digested by the animal al
most without change, which is not the
case with carbohydrates. Fats furnish
heat and energy for the body, and
when not 30 used are stored in the
body as animal fat. Al mentioned
above, one pound of fat Is worth more
than two pounds Of carbohydrates in
any feed. Another important point re-
garding fats is that they have ten
dency to counteract constipation, es
pecially If contained in the food IN
large amounts.
Protein is the heterogeneous com
pounds of a food. They are usually
called albumens or albuminoids. Glue

common forms Of these heterogeneous
bodies. In an animal, the red flesh

A Nice Point in WooI.-The struc.
ture of wool is very different from the
structures of most of the fbres that
cover animals. Thus the hair on the
horse or OK tapers gradually from the
roots to the tip. These hairs fall out
annually. The sheep fibre differs from
this in that the tapering is only in
the first fibre of wool that grows out
on the sheep and this tapering is only
for a short distance from the point,
that is taken OF with the first shear.
ing OF the lamb, and all the other wool
that grows has each fibre of the same
size throughout its entire length. Thia
shows the great difference there in be-
tween the coating of the sheep and thu
