Death WAS BY
SUICIDE ROUTE

Concerning the death of lack Tay-
lor, formerly of this city, in Carson
City Thursday, the News of that city
says:
lack Taylor, gambler well known
throughout the state, took an over
dose of morphine last evening and
died about 1925. He only recently
returned from Tonopah where he had
been for some time. He had been
very i'll for some months, being vic
tim of the great white plague and
during the last few days had grown
very respondent. A short time ago
he informed a friend that he was
tired of it all and intended to kill
himself. Since his return from Ton
opah he has been staying with a
friend, George Archer, in his cabin
below the railroad freight depot from
which place the body was removed
to the M. J. Downey undertaking
parlors.
The deceased was born and raised
in this place and is survived by an
aged mother residing here who was

SENSATIONAL DISCOVERY
IN AN OLD TUNNEL
Rich Ore Found Concealed Behind
CIeyerly Executed Bogus Face.

SEARCHL1GHT. March "A dis
covery on the sensational order has
been made within the past week on
the Mineral Farm group, Mob Hill,
owned by Spanogle, Sartain and
Peak. The exact location is about
one mile northeast of the Silver Lee
gion mine. There was a short tun-
mel. some 20 feet in length. run from
the bottom of an old stope. In the
course lof recent prospecting IL was
discovered that the face of this was
artificial or man-made II was a
very clever deception. After its con-
struction some shallow shooting had
been done about the edges that put
on the final touches to the realism
However. when this had been broken
down the mystery was heightened by
the finding of second similar false
wall located some ten feet further
back. Nothing was found except de-
eidedly fine looking ore. and In place.
Some of the ore is of high grade
character and when assays are run.
for which samples were selected the
first of the week. there is every rea-
son to expect something out of the
ordinary. Some time ago an assay
was run of the dump, which now
would be classed as seconds, and this
gave values OF $51.
The Mineral Farm. like numerous
other properties In that section. was
the scene of many thousands of dol
lars of production by chloriders In
early days. The so-called chlorides
are now known to go down for
depth of 40 to so feet. Then the sui
phides come in and often tempo
rary shortening of values at the point

of these things, together with the
Indian troubles and no less from
white outlaws, account fully for the
cessation of work
As in the case recounted herein,
the man or men had well locked up
their treasure and planned TO return
at some future time, but the fates
had willed otherwise. The most mat
ter of fact miner cannot look on one
of these mute evidences of the work
of the first hardy pioneers without
pausing for moment to speculate
on their nerve and hardships and
disappointments.

ing and smelling supply and general
trade center in the eastern part of
the state. 1t will not take it long
to gain ascendeney as the biggest
mining, smelling and railroad center
and the heaviest general merchandise
and supply center between Denver
and San Francisco. That this will
come about is absolutely certain in
my mind. The district will outrank
Salt Lake in time in activity, at least,
along industrial lines. We will not
have, of course, the backing of the
agricultural country that city has and
which is in itself sufficient to sustain.
Ii, but we will have the backing of
the richest mineral districts in the
world and our income from them will
be enormous. Our own mineral re-
sources, in the copper ores which
have been developed in the district,
are sufficient to make and maintain
enormous activity and great pay rolls
here for years. Add TO that the in
come we will have from the grea:
country to the south, Tonopah, Gold
field, Rawhide, Phoebe and many
other rich districts, some of them
yet undeveloped, all of which will
ship their ores here for reduction
and will come here for their supplies,
and you get glimpse at The ire
mendous things which are assuredly
ahead for us.

real Wholesale center, common
trading point Reno comes nearer to
filing the need than any other city
in the state. but IL draws only a
small portion of the trade from the
country almost Immediately about il
The balance goes to San Francisco

the development of this district You
will find that so far as the eastern
and a large part of the south of the
state is concerned this will change.
The people of eastern and southern
Nevada will come here to transact
their business and purchase their
supplies. We will have a great town
and with the trans-continental lines
which may he considered as certain
of operating through here within the
next few years We will he in position
to get and to give the best of trans
portation service, which means that
we can carry large stocks, add to
them quickly and make deliveries
promptly The town will be after
the heart of the east and the south
OF the state, bone of its bone, and
it will draw the people and get and
keep their trade. Bigger things are
ahead for the district outside of
strictly Industrial lines than most
people realize at the present time.
A year or two will make marvellous

WASHINGTON. March THE

the figures for the calendar year

for the years 1902 10 1905, inelu-
siye.
The total number of deaths re-
ported for the registration area for
1906 was 65S, Jos. and the death
rate was 1911 per 900 of popnla-
ton: the corresponding rate for 1905
was 1862, and the annual average
rate from 1901 to 1905 was / SO.
The annual average rate for England
and Wales during the same period
was 10; for Scotland, 1853; for Ire
land, 176; for Germany, 1919, and

Testing animal origins or kinships
by similarities of blood analyses, as
suggested by Prof. Nuttall, the En-
Rllsh biologist, is bringing novel
ideas into zoology. 1t shows that the
hIppopotamus is pig, and the
walrus a horse, and confirms the
long recognized relationship between
birds and reptiles. But it does not
connect man with monkeys and traces
only slight kinship with the anthro-
poids.
