Two Deaths in Ten Months.

Newport claims to be the healthiest
city of its size in the state of Washing
ton
During the past six months there has
been but one death on the Washington
sideiof the town from natural causes.
For "a period of ten months there have
been but two deaths in this town of over
1900 population from natural causes.
On the Idaho side, which has popu-
lation of about 800 persons, there has
not been single death.s
If any other city in the state, or the
country, for that matter. having a COM
bined population of about 1000 people
can show better record than Newport
in mortuary matters, we would like to
hear from them. There have been sew
eral cases of violent deaths in the town
and immediate vicinity, but none O
them originated in the city.

Wreck al Elk.

A bad freight wreck occurred at ELK
on Wednesday afternoon. A through
freight from the east crashed into the
caboose of the local which was just pre-
pairing to leave the Elk yards. Half a
dozen freight cars and caboose were
badly smashed and traffic delayed for
several hours.
The Hillyard wrecker was called out
and all of the work crews from that
place that could be spared also assisted
in clearing the road.
Number three. west bound, was
caught on this side of the wreck and
backed to Standpoint where it took the
Norehern Pacific tracks into Spokane.
Elk is keeping up its reputation as
one of the worst towns on the Great Nor
thern for freight wrecks.

COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS
Important Business Transacted by
City Dads
Fourth Street Will be Graded

The city council had very busy SEES
sion Wednesday evening. Many mat
tiers came up for consideration. The
meeting was called to order by Mayor
Appel, Councilmen Bennett, Hynes and
Caldwell being present.
The mayor read the resignation of
Councilman Charles G. Stadelman, who
has removed to Walla Walla Mr.
Stadelman's resignation having been
accepted by the council, the mayor pre-
sented the name of John McInnis, Jr.,
to fill the vacancy, and Mr.. McInnis was
duly elected member of the council.
A petition headed by Mrs. Jessie G.
Scott and signed by majority of the
property owners on Fourth street, pray
ing for immediate action in grading said
street, was presented and read, and
after due consideration by the council,
the prayer of the petitioners was grant
ed. The fact developed that the resi-
dents on Fourth street were in favor of
a six-foot sidewalk, instead of eight feet,
and it was so ordered.
The petition OF G.. E. Jaynes and
others, asking that Scott's third addi-
ton be admitted to the city limits, was
read and granted and an election or
deled.
The committee on judiciary reported
favorably on the petition and bond oil
VIM. Heisner for saloon license, and
the necessary license was issued.
Harry Saddler appeared before the
council and asked that the present dray
license of $12 per year be changed to $50
per year per team. Mr. Saddler con.
tended that the license was inadequate
and should be raised The council
the matter, and the clerk was ordered
to draw up an amendment to the pres
ent ordinance, which will make tn,
license $50 per year per team.
The street committee was instructed
to attend to the matter of putting i,

JOsRPH's TROUBLES

This is Josephs motto, but now he's in a stew;
Joe is great on rOultry-eggs he wants to get
But with spring a-coming on his hens they

Shut them up in boxes, but all these schemes
did fall
Joe's as good natured fellow as we have ever
met,
But it's surely mighty trying when your hens
begin to set.
Joe has got Plymouth Rock more vicious

Which fights him to finish, then flies back on

GOLDFIELD AUTOISTS HOLD
INTERESTING RACE MEET

Twenty-one touring ears, loaded to
the guards, set forth from the Goldfeld
Hotel Sunday morning at 10 o'clock for
Auto lake, sixteen miles northwest Of
camp. A number of carriage parties,
equestrians and motor cyclists also
joined the caravan and, upon arriving
at the lake, a goodly representation
from Tonopah was found.
A twelve-mile course had been laid
out by Walter c. Stone and a committee
over the perimeter of the dry lake, the
course being as smooth and hard as
glass. A refreshment booth had also
been erected by the committee.
The ears that entered for the races
were all heavy roadsters, equipped with
tonneaus. The first race was won by
Tex Richards Thomas in 1920 3-s.
The second was won by Bert Lundy's

The Romance of mining was aptly
illustrated by the events which led up
to the discovery of a rich lead and sill
yer vein on the Goldfeld Granite Noun
tain property, at Willow Springs in the
Gold Mountain district, during the
week.
Some time ago a man, now residing
in California, spent a few days in the
Gold Mountain district, where he had
mined years ago when the ore had to
be packed out to Austin or Virginia
City. While r~eeiting some interesting
events, before the open fire place in
the old stone house at Old Camp, he
mentioned having opened up some rich
ore near the spring on the south side of
the range. Joe Mayer, the mine man
ager for the Granite Mountain COM
pany, was an interested listener, and
so well does he know the country that
he was able to go to the exact spot
where this ore was so long before dis
covered, which is now the Trail claim
owned by the company. He found the
old shaft, which in the course of years
of abandonment had become nearly
filed up, and with a few days work
cleaned it out. This work exposed a
ten-inch stringer of mixed galena and
lead carbonate with silver chloride. A
generous sample was sent to Goldfeld
to be assayed, and showed 275 ounces

w. H. H., Troy, N. Y.-Palaee Gold
field is an Arizona corporation. 1t owns
two claims in the northern portion OF
the Goldfeld district. No work of any
consequence has been done within the
past year. "Why does Pittsburg-Silver
Peak remain downl" That is an easy
question to answer, but difficult to ad-
vance a reasonable reply. The big mill,
100 stamps, of the company, is working
day and night and the returns are IN
the ncighborhood of 100000 a month.
The operating expenses do not exceed
half that AMOUNT. 1t is possible that
the hand of T. b. Hickey is as a cloud
ON the horizon, but, at all events, the
physical condition of the property is
such as to preclude any long extended
shadow on the security. There was a
big Indebtedness a few months ago, due
to installing the mill, aerial tram and
building the railroad to the main line,
but the balance is now getting over to
the right side of the ledger. A few
wears ago the Blair mine, now the Pitts
burg-Silver Peak, was heralded as the
third richest mine in the world. 1t has
ore reserves up into the millions of tons.
Every appliance is now provided Tor

AUTHENTICATED MINING STORY

silver and 81 per cent lead with small
values in gold, a total value per ton of
$1S4.1O. This sample came from but
little depth and it is very probable that
the vein will be wider as greater depth
is reached. The company will put men
to work to further explore this vein.
The principal workings of the Granite
Mountain company are situated about
5000 feet from the Trail claim, being
a crosscut tunnel which is being driven
through the granite to intercept the
big vein which extends through the
backbone of the Gold Mountain range,
and can be traced for over three miles.
In this vein ON the company's property
is an unusual ore shoot, being about
thousand feet long with an average
width of twenty feet. This vein AZ
surface averages around twenty dollars
and the trend will open it up at a YER
teal depth of about 400 feet. Inc
tunnel is being driven through very
hard rock, and the work is necessary
slow, but has reached a distance OF 800
feet. 1t is expected that the VEN VIII
be cut soon after the 600-foot point Is
gained. Some of the best mining eH
gineers in the country have examlneu
it, and it has been pronounced an i~
mense milling proposition. 1t is Deins
