TURNING OUT
The BEST WORK

The bindery OF the Bonanza is
turning out the best work in the
city, and it is giving such great salts
faction that anyone who has his work
done there once, never goes anywhere
else. The plant is the finest and
most complete, not only in the State,
but THIS side of San Francisco. We
can turn out all kinds of work that
is demanded in the offices of lawyers,
brokers, promoters, mining compan-
les, or for any other kind of business,
and we guarantee satisfaction in
every respect. One trial will be sufti-
cient to establish the truth of this
statement, 1t pays to go where only
| the best kind of work is done, ant

$1O3 gold and $2.55 in silver, and
$106 gold and $3.50 silver, respec-

values which have been secured by
Frenzel. The new district is in a
section which has hitherto been little
prospected, and is about twelve miles
southeast of Millett's station.
Mr.. Scallon is elated over his new
find. BY the way, he says that the
new owners of the old Jefferson mine
are rushing things, and that besides
the men employed in the mine, a
force of about thirty men is at work
constructing the new mill and Other
buildings. The supplies are being
hauled in from Austin.

thrilling journey Of 10 miles over
treacherous ice On Lake Erie to break
the news Of Hayden's death was the
terrifying experience Of Joe Berner,
who, it is feared, will become a maniac
as a result OF his horrible ordeal.
With eyes bullying from their soch

exhaustion. Bernor staggered into
Toledo and told his shocking story.
On Saturday, February s, Capt. Hay

a man named Jennings, who had been
keeping the lonely vigil with McNulty
while Capt. Hayden was in this city
for a few days visiting his invalid
wife
Capt Hayden was not feeling well
when he and Bernor arrived at tbs
lighthouse. The strenuous trip across
the ice had weakened him to great
degree and that night he fell i'll with
pneumonia.
Upon Bernor fell the duty of being
physician and nurse. Such medicines
as he had at hand were administered.
Capt Hayden was placed in hot
bath by Benor, who did everything
possible to save the captains life.
His efforts proved unayailing, and
early Thursday morning Hayden ex
pired in the arms of his trusty com

Mary is the name of his wife

the lighthouse and opening the win.
