years, and during that time you have
been faithful and your work has been

the right thing. Have you saved?

who amused themselves by mysterious

hotel man had had a quiet tip on a

for the announcement that the syndi.

his brother-in-law, Charley Mason,
who farmed between Shasta and Red

Spread it around. Old Joe has made his

NAME WAS A COMPROMISE.
Explanation of Remarkable Cogno-
men of Nevada Town.

A Nevada man having extensive
mining claims in the goldfield region
tells of a lucky strike that was made
last year near Carson City, a strike
that proved to be of such promise that
a goodly sized camp Immediately
sprang up around 1t.
The two principal mine owners
were, respectively, an Irishman and
Jew, and as a compliment to these
leading citizens the camp decided to
leave to them the bestowal of suit
able name upon the new community.
There followed many conferences
between the two, none of which result
ed in an agreement The Irishman
stood out for a name that would sug-
gest his native isle, while the Jew was
lust as insistent, on his part, for a
name that should be suggestive of the
chosen people. This deadlock con-
tinued so long that the rest of the
camp grew restless, and finally insist
ed that there should be a compromise
So the new camp was called "Tipperu,

Old Joe's Grubstake
By Edith King Latham
lcopyrlsht. by shOrtstOry Pub. co..
By Edith King Latham

Old Joe Cunnill was a picturesque
feature of life in Sauger's Pass, al
though the townspeople were not
greatly impressed with the quaint side
of the old mans character To them
1t was an old story, once both conf
cal and pathetic, but now grown stale
from frequent reading.
Ever since the founding of Sauger's,
Old Joe had figured in the history Of
the little mountain settlement, at first
as pioneer owner of the first stamp
mill, and afterward, through the sharp
vicissitudes of a miners life, he had
slipped down to his present position
of the forlorn but ever-hopeful fortune
seeker, his sole possessions a lanky
mule, rifle and meager prospecting
outfit. With this stock in trade, he
was wont to set out on his expeditions
through Siskiyou county, often travel
ing as far south as Redding, and
sometimes washing out two or three
dollars a week in gold, on the banks
of the Sacramento, where it rushes

AS it happened this year Old Joe
Cunnill had varied his usual program
by remaining all winter and well into
the summer in Sauger's, and it was
not until one morning in July that he
and his mule were seen in marching
order, slowly making their way down
the country road toward the south.
Three men sitting on the veranda
of the Shasta house, were discussing a
new mining boom.
Suddenly one of them slapped his
knee, and brought his chair down with
a thud on the floor.
Say, boys, I've got an idea that'll
give us some fun and set up the an
cient prospector in the highest heaven
Of joy. Let's grubstake him!"
Loud bursts of laughter greeted the
proposition, but after little, the huge
ness of the joke began to appeal
strongly to these prominent citizens OF
Sauger's.
An hour later the bewildered old
man plodded, in a daze, beside his
pack mule, with the pleasant recollec

There were no surface indications of the
existence of these ore bodies. The two

increased its ore reserves recently and is
now a heavy shipper OF silver, 1t has
