For "THE UNION .
THE OLD HOME.
BY p. s. CROSS.

love to think of the happy days
spent in the years gone by,
In the dear old home with those loved,
With love that cannot die.
In our youthful days my bride and
Started q home together,
Bound with the cords of mutual love,
Till death the tie should sever.
Dear children then came to bless our home
And increase our Joy and care;
For wisdom to guide their steps Alright
1t was our daily prayer.
They now have happy homes of their own,
Away from the old ''roof tree"
By other endearing ties of love
They were drawn away from me.
The dear old home is quite lonely now
Since Death, the angel SO grim,
Summoned my dearest one from my side
And took her away with him.
To that land unseen by mortal eyes
Beyond the mystic river,
To dwell with loved ones gone before
Forever and forever.
/ calmly await the call to go
To that unknown land so fair,
Hoping to meet my loved ones again,
Free from all sorrow and care.

coon HEARING.

A story is told of a man who was
walking beside railway line with a
friend who was very hard of hear
ing.
A train was approaching, and as it
rounded the curve the whistle gave
one of those ear-destroying shrieks
which seem TO pierce high heaven.
A smile broke over the deaf mans
face.
"Man," said he, chats the first
robin I've heard this spring y
Mr.. SrUBB Gin astonishment) y
Gracious, Maria! That tramp has
been singing in the back yard for the

is all my fault. Mr.. Stubb-Your
fault? Mrs. Stubb-Indeed it is. l
thought was giving him dish Of
boiled oatmeal, and instead of that I
boiled up the bird seed by mistake.

MARYIANDs ANCIENT COURT.


The Court Of Appeals of Maryland
is one of the most ancient of courts in
this country or England. 1t dates to
the year 1857, and there are reports
of cases going back to that year which
have not been published except in the
Proceedings of the Council. The
cases contained in the Maryland Re-
ports begin with the year 1858. In
an address upon the Chief Justices of
the Court of Appeals the late Judge
McSherry pointed out the fact that
Maryland Reports antedate those of
any other State, being IL years older
than those of Virginia, o6 years older
than those of Pennsylvania, 40 years
older than those of North Carolina,
125 years older than those of South
Carolina, I27 years older than those
of Connecticut, 136 years older than
those of New York and I46 years
older than those of Massachusetts,.
MAMMA had found it necessary to
discipline George for being naughty
one day, and the usually forglving
nature of the child was held in check
until papa came home, when the little
boy ran to him and said: "Papa,
want you to do sumpfn for me.
want you to discharge mamma"

SHOES FOR CHILDREN.

! One of the most important item oi
clothing for children, from the point
of view of health, is shoes. There is
an ever growing tendency to credit
the ill-fitting shoe with many reflex
troubles, nervous and otherwise.
This, of course, is especially applica-
bic to the kind of shoes prescribed by
fashion for the adult, or rather for the
adult woman. Happily, the most
rabidly fashionable mother would
hardly insist on sharp pointed toes or
heels for little children, and the little
square shoe sold for very young chill
dren is adapted to the little square
foot for which it is designed. 1t is
later in life that the trouble begins,
and it is then that all mothers should
be rigid in their demands that the in
side of the foot is allowed to grow in
the straight line intended by nature.
To permit of this the shoe n1ust be,
wide enough, and the only way to
insure this, says the YOUTHS COmbaas-
ION, is to have the child stand bare
footed on sheet of paper, then draw
round the foot while he bears down
withfull weight. The design secured
on paper in that way will be the de-
sign on which the child's shoe should
be made.
1t is imperative also to remember
that at certain times a child grows
with astounding rapidity, and that
the shoe that was perfect fit in April
may be starting cause for trouble in
June.
If the foot is allowed to be crowded
out of shape at this critical ageit will
never regain the normal, especially if
the great toe joint is the one to suffer,
and it usually is, as result of the
shoe being, or becoming, too short,
or too narrow in the toe part.
Again, it by no means follows that
the discarded shoe can be passed down
to the next in age. Because 7-year-
old Tommy has outgrown his hardly
worn shoe, it will not necessarily be
a good fit for 6-year. old Jack.
With strong and well-built children
the low shoe is better than the high,
as it permits of better ventilation and
more exercise tending to strengthen
the ankle. If, however, child is in
clined to be rickety or weak in the
leg, especially the ankle, then we'll
laced high boot is better and lacing
is always to be chosen in preference
to buttons, as it can be adjusted each
time and made really to fit and sup
port.
If it is found that child wears the
shoe at the sole and heel more quick
1y at one side than the other it is an
indication of a weak ankle, and then
the high boot should be substituted.
Lazy nurses have habit of allow
ing children to keep on their leather
CATERS in the house on the plea that
"they are going out again in min
ute." This is not hygienic and should

The following resolutions OF respect
and coincidence were passed by Lyon
Lodge No. IL. knights of Pythias, at
their Castle hall in Dayton, May 2, 1908:
Whereas, 1t has pleased our Father,
who doeth all things well, to remove
from our midst the wife of our esteemed
brother, A. ]. Newman; and,
Whereas, In the loss of the wife of
our brother he and his family have lost
a true and tried friend, an exemplary
wife and mother and the community at
large a noble woman; therefore, be it
Resolved, That we extend to the be-
reaved husband and children our sincere
and heartfelt sympathy in their hour of
sadness; and be it tuither
Resolved, That these resolutions be
spread in full upon the minutes OF the
Lodge, a copy sent to the family OF the
deceased and that the same be published
in the Yerington Times. Signed;

A PROPERTY OF MERIT
The Knierim People Owners
of Cilt>Edge Ground North
of This Place

Reports from the Knierim mining
property, located at Rio Vista, about
twelve miles northeast of this place, are
encouraging. The shaft on the Red Top
ground is down 40 feet and the bottom
is in solid ore, from which good assays
are returned.
The men at work on the Crown Point
are now down as feet on that property
and the ledge is well defined and meas
ures feet in thickness. The ledges in
both shafts are confined between granite
and slate walls, the latter being the foot
wall, and as depth is attained the ledge
matter becomes firmer and the quartz is
of lively character, being impregnated
with sulphurets and assays we'll in gold.
1t is the intention of Mr.. Knierim to
develop his holdings in a systematic way
and already he has spent quite a sum of
money in the way of buildings for the
housing of the miners.

OPERATOR KILLED
AT RESERVATION

The name of the man killed last week
at Reservation was John T. Walker. 1t
appears that Mr.. Walker. who had con-
siderable good mining property at that
place, was making tour of inspection,
and while examining shaft that had not
been in use. for some time and the sides
of which were soaked with water, missed
his footing and fell to the bottom, dis
tance of 90 feet, killing him instantly.
Walker was an old-time resident of
Nevada, having resided in this State for
thirty years or more, being engaged in
various pursuits. He was one of the
first to enter the southern gold camps
and made considerable money there.
AT one time he operated in the vicinity
of Lovelock, principally at Bernice and
Cottonwood, Churchill county. Just be-
fore he met his untimely end he remark
ed that his holdings at Reservation
would eventually net him snug sum of
money.
He was about S5 years of age and had
record of square dealing in all his
transactions, and his taking off will be
deeply deplored by all who knew him.

NEWS FROM MT. GRANT

f.. r. Gambel writes as follows from
Mt Grant: ID. J. Sherry has just male
a rich find on his Mt. Grant property.
A streak of gold ore eighteen inches i'll
width has been struck which assays up
into the hundreds. The claim is stu
ated about one-haif mile above the Mon
tello post Office and stamp mill and adj
joins the Morning Star group of claims.
Another rich find was made on two
claims of the Morning Star group by
Mr.. Gambel which run up into the hund-
reds. As depth is attained the ledge
widens and it has been opened up on the
hillside for long distance.
Great things will be doing here with
in the next sixty days as all of the claims
here are showing up well and work is
going on steadily.
We expect town to spring up here
at any time on Cottonwood creek as it is
an ideal spot with plenty of timber and
pure mountain water and lots of high
and low grade ore in sight.
There are millions of tons of low
grade ore on the surface that will assay
IS per ton and upwards.
What we need badly is store and
whoever comes first will be donated a
lot on which to start busieess.

MOUNTAIN VIEW NOTES

On the Greenwalt lease the showing is
stronger than ever. there being several
tons of high grade milling ore already
on the dump. Mr.. Greenwalt has gone
to Reno with large assortment of pic
ture rock from his diggings, proposing
TO interest capital and put on large
-force OF miners.
Ore from the Wilson Gold Mines com
pary ground is being hauled down to
the railroad. John Snyder of Yerinetpn
having the contract.
A good strike is reported from Hop
pins camp between Mountain View and
Granite. They have four feet OF ore that
will mill better than SIS per ton. This
ore was strnck on the Emma claim for
merly the ''Piute," now owned by II.
p. Beer and associates. Active work is
being done ON this ground and the ore
piled up for milling as soon as a mill
can be installed. Water for milling pur-
poses is available about one mile below
this strike. Big things are expected
from this mine.
The Hillygus-O Osborne lease at Mount
ain View is in ledge formation which
gives good paintings. The leasers are
driving ahead with the tunnel expecting
at every shot to encounter the ledge
proper.
While Mountain View is oEly about
four and one-half miles west from the
railroad, owing to the fact that many oi
those most interested in this wonderful
camp being residents of Mason Valley
Yerington is largely the supply point
and headquarters for operations at that
place. -.
All reports from the Granite side OF
the district are that depth improves all
the showing and large quantities of mill
ing and some shipping ore are being
piled up daily.

UNKNOWN BODY FOUND

Under low pine tree and partly COW
cred with twigs and pine needles, a
sheep herder found the remains of a
we'll dressed man In the hills midway
between Buckskin and Wellington last
Saturday The man had been dead at
least year and half, nothing remain
ing save the articulated bones of bis
skeleton. The skull was closely ex-
amined and showed no signs of vio-
lence Several articles were found with
the remaius which may possibly lead to
the identity of the deceased. A small
note book on the last page was written
the name of DR.. c. +. Heseman, and
also the word Sweeney. A large silk
handkerchief with the letter H worked
in one corner. Also silver mug with
the word "Vesta" engraved on its side.
A set of false teeth was also found. At
the time of his death he wore a grey
serge suit, black derby hat, white shirt
and carried cane. A small grip was
found that was torn up which had con-
tanned few collars, cuffs and a white
vest, were scattered on the hillside. A
newspaper, badly mutilated. but thought
to be a Los Angeles Times of December
l9, 1905, was also found close by. The
bones had been scattered around by wild
animals

THE HOME TALENT
GETTING IN ON OIL

The oil discovery in Coal valley still
occupies the minds of the people here
abouts. Several wagonloads of Yering-
ton citizens going there this week to
look over the country and see what the
outlook was for business or any other
thing. The supposed oil fields are about
40 miles south of this place. and are
said to extend as far south as Mono lake
where outfits are now boring wells with
losd results.
Men who have been operating in the
oil fields OF Texas and California, and
who are competent to give an opinion,
say that the conditions are the same and
express the belief that gushers will be
tapped. 1t is reported that boring ma
chimes have been ordered and thorough
test made.
The country is covered with oil shale
and numerous sandstone dikes cross the
valley, which is not exactly level, but
rolling. The shale, when blowpipe is
used, gives off a pronounced kerosene
odor.
