MORE MONEY FOR THE
YERINCTON DISTRICT

The temptation to persist in the
endeavor to find a mine greater
than the last one is ever present
with the successful operator. The
latest demonstration of this fact is
the purchase by Goldfield syn
dictate that owned one-half in the
famous Rogers Syndicate lease at
Goldfield, now terminated, of the
Nevada Rockland mine at East
Walker, Nevada. The purchasers
made about $4,000 on an invest
ment of $4,000 in the Rogers
lease and have now bought the
Nevada Rockland mine in the East
Walker district. The new prop
erty is said to have a great record
of productiveness and was form
erly owned by Governor Blaisdell
of Nevada. 1t is on Sugarloaf
mountain, IS miles east of the base
of the Sierra Nevada range, and
has an elevation of 1000 feet. 1t
is also IS miles east of the old
camp. of Bodie, California, and
four miles from the famous Wheel
er and Wilson mine at Pine Grove.
The ores are gold and silver, and
there is mill on the ground whose
process may have to be changed.
1t is expected that the action of
this entrant into the Mason valley
field will be to afford considerable
impetus to mining operations
throughout the entire vicinity, and
will also serve no doubt to attract
more Goldfield operators to mines
in the neighborhood of Yerington.

AMERICAN SAILORS ARE
WELL-EDUCATED, ABLE MEN

There are 500 high school gradu-
ates among the bluejackets and mar
ines OF the Atlantic Battleship Fleet,
200 or 800 men who have graduated
from educational institutions classed
as colleges and 1000 men who are
taking courses In correspondence
schools. There is not a warship that
does not number among Its men a
large class of highly educated young
Americans.
The seamen are not only, as rule,
well educated, but are well bred and
In many respects are far different
from the old-time boisterous tar.
Although a batttleship like the
Connecticut carries crew of nearly
900 men. only three or four blue
jackets have left the vessel In the

CONTINUED from Pare u

summed up the whole case, dwelling
particularly on the credibility Of Tay-
lor, Matheson, and Ayres, his wit
nesses. He spoke at length on the
fact that Lee Let's testimony was un-
supported, while there were three
MEN who told the same story for the
prosecution. He closed his argument
at IL o'clock, when 10-minute re-
cess was declared.
Frank Thompson, attorney for the
defendant. opened his argument by
stating that he considered lot Of his
opponents talk irrelevant. He also
went into a detailed outline of the
case, bringing up many points that
might have been overlooked. Con-
corning the denial in the Advertiser
of the accusation that Taylor had
been writing for that sheet in which
1t was stated that the last thing Tay-
loi had written for them was ge-
nealogy OF Prince David, Thompson
caused a general laugh around the
courtroom when he brought out the
point that the genealogy had been
copied almost verbatim from writings
Of Mrs. Nakuina. Thompson closed
his argument a few minutes after
noon. and the Court declared a recess
until 2 O'Clock this afternoon.
