Terrible Experience

The following from the Las Vegas
Age of Lincoln county tells of the thrill.
ing experience had by merchant of
that section:
with his hip badly injured, a large
cut in his cheek and in O. terribly
bruised and battered condition, Arthur
Woods, merchant at Leastalk, a small
station near Marvel, lay for hours
unable to move while the thermometer
lowered around eight degrees below
zero. Woods, who keeps the store at
Leastalk, had been to Marvel and was
returning to his home after night when
the wagon ran into q rock and tipped
over, throwing the driver to the ground.
Although injured he managed to crawl
under the wagon, where he remained
until next morning, when he was found
and taken to his home. This was We'd
nesday night and early in the evening
mercury sank to zero, and then kept on
downward until a point eight degrees
below zero.
All through this terrible night Woods
lay suffering from his injuries and
powerless to keep off the cold. but his
constitution was such that he managed
to live and will doubtless entirely re-
cover within short time.

Waste In Mineral Production

Representative Dalzell of Pennsyl-
vanla, chairman of the section of
minerals of the national conservation
commission, in his report to the commits
sion says the mineral production of the
United States exceeds two billion
dollars annually, and that it supplies
10 per cent of the freight traffic of the
nation. The waste in mining and in
the treatment of mineral substance
annually is equivalent to over three
hundred million dollars.
The report says that the known SUD-
plies of petroleum, natural gas and
high grade phosphate rock cannot be
expected to last beyond the middle of
the present century and that the waste
of mineral resources used in building
and engineering constru ction as result

Seth Ros.b.rry Burned to Death

About quarter past six last night, the
house occupied by Seth Roseberry, an
old resident of Tuscarora, was discovered
to be on fire. The house was entirely
destroyed and the charred remains of
Mr.. Roseberry were found in the ruins.
The origin of the fire is not known,
but is is supposed to have started by q
lamp exploding or being overturned.
AS Mr.. Roseberry was alone in the
house at the time, the origin of the fire
will remain a mystery.
Mr.. Roseberry was an old resident of
Elko county. He has lived in Tuscarora
for many years and was respected by all
who knew him. He was formerly sup
erintendent of the Dexter mine, but
lately has been engaged in teaming.
The above information was telephoned
to the INDEPENDENT, this forenoon by
Mr.. D. G. McKenna,, who also stated
that no investigation, had been made by
the authorities up to the time he was at
the phone. He promised that if any
developments were made he would let
the INDEPENDENT know.

Accident. at Flower Lax.

Attorney Henderson received dis
patch from Wells last night stating that
there had been an explosion at the Utah
Construction Company's camp at Flower

WOOD PRODUCTION IN GERMANY

Among all the nations of the world
Germany receives the credit of being
the most thoroughly scientific. She
does with her limited natural resources
what younger nations will soon be
compelled to do in self protection; she
conserves them.
When our wood supplies, stored up
from 100 to 500 years, are within sight
of their end. and sawmills that have
been moved from the white pine belt
of the north to the yellow pine belt of
the south have been moved to the
Pacific coast for their last stand, then
Germany's scientific forestry policy
will receive better recognition.
We do not think of moving a grist
mill about from one What field to
another, as the fields in turn become
exhausted. After one crop is harvest
ed another crop is coming on. SO it
must be with the sawmill and the crop
of trees. If it takes so years to raise
a tree of a given species, then one
fiftieth of the forest may be cut each

BANK AND TRUST
co. DECLARED INSOLvENT'

Judge Orr of Reno declared the
Wonder Bank & Trust company to be
insolvent after listening to arguments
of counsel and the evidence of Bank
Examiner Hofer, who recently made
an investigation of the affairs of the
institution.
According to the report of the bank
examiner the liabilities of the bank
amount to $2O,077 .S5. The face value
of the assets of the bank was $50,
039.42, but the actual value of the as
sets of the bank estimated by the bank
examiner was given in his report as
$~6,5s7.62. The appointment of a re-
ceiver was postponed until August Is
in order to give the ~depositors and
creditors of the defunct institution an
opportunity to agree on a suitable
man.
The Wonder Bank & Trust company
was the first banking institution in
the once prosperous camp of Wonder.
1t was founded in the halcyon days
of the camp about eighteen months
ago, when the camp of Wonder was
being heralded as the bonanza camp
of the west. For a time the bank dill
a wonderful business and preparations
were made to erect a handsome struc-
ture to take the place of the little
frame building in which the business
was transacted. The bottom fell out
of the camp before the plans were per
feeted and since then the bank has
been on the down grade The order of
the court is the last chapter of the in
stitution. Mine owners and business
men of Wonder and vicinity win be
the only ones to suffer.
