SEEKERS
START FOR GOLD

A big rush was on last night from
Reno to new mining discovery near
Browns station, about 80 miles east
of here ON the Central Pacific. Eight
automobiles, loaded to the guards
with mining men, eager for chance
at the riches of the new discovery,
left Reno during the afternoon and
evening, and over 100 left the town
later in the night on the first east
bound train.
The discovery was made as long
ago as last Saturday by two brothers,
John and Joseph Mackidon of Love-
lock, but was kept profound secret
until yesterday, while the discoveries
were stalking out all the land they
thought they wanted in the neigh
borhood. When it did leak, there
was rush from all along the line.
The discovery was just beyond the
first range of hills west of Browns
station, and at point about 10 miles
from that station. 1t is short dis
lance from Laurie's Wells, where a
strike was made last spring that oc-
casioned some excitement for time,
but eventually "petered" out The
present strike gives better evidences
of permanency. besides being very
much richer.
The rock is of that gold-spangled,
gold-studded variety which is COM
prehensively denominated picture
rock" and it has been found in sew
eral places in the neighborhood of
the original strike, indicating that
there is considerable body of it.
The range in which it was found is
said by those who have prospected
Humboldt county extensively to be a
continuation of that in which the
Seven Troughs strike was made

SALOON Man RUN
OUT OF FARRELL
SATURATED HIS BUILDING WITH
OIL AND BURNED 1T TO
GROUND.

LOVELOCK, New, Feb. 8.-A
special to the Humboldt Star says:
News reached here last night that
serious trouble may occur at Farrell,
one of the camps of the Seven
Troughs districst on account of an
effort which the citizens are making
to rid the town of bad characters.
Sheriff Lamb was telegraphed for
and arrived last night and left at
once for Farrell to take charge OF
the situation and bring about peace
able conditions.
Yesterday the citizens of Farrell
ran a saloon man named Miller out
of the camp and then saturated his
saloon with oil and burned it. Mil
Ter has the reputation of being gun
fighter and his saloon was a resort
for bad characters of the town. Be-
sides Miller tw oothers were conduct
ed down the canyon, but they made
resistance and shooting was mar
rowly averted.
The feeling among the good citi-
Gems of Farrell is running high and
they are determined to clean the
town of the disreputable element
The tough characters will all be com
PEELED to leave, with orders not tc
return or they will be given sum
mary punishment.
Sheriff Lamb left for Farrell last
night, having received dispatch
from Deputy Sheriff Cooper of Love
lock that the situation demanded thu
sheriff's immediate presence. Thu
sheriff went to Lovelock on No. 8
the fast mail, having been given
permit to ride on that train. The
sheriff is a fearless officer and he viii
doubtless straighten out matters a
Farrell very quickly.

SELLING PRESSURE
| IN STOCK MARKET
tBy Associated Press. }

NEW YORK, Feb. S.-There was
nothing striking in the news today
to account for an increase OF the
selling pressure in the stock mar
ket. The movement was rather the
cumulative influence of a feeling of
Encouragement that has grown up
during the week as to any prospect
for an early revival of widespread
demand for securities such as can
only form proper basis for success
full speculation operations. A con-
siderable period of dizziness and neg
lect of the stock market is the clear
ly expressed anticipation that is
heard among habitual over-raters
and voiced in the action of the mar
ket. Bonds were easy.

|RAWHIDE CLAIMS
Sell FOR $4,000

For a consideration of $4,000 the
Miller lease on the Hooligan No. 2
claim at Rawhide was disposed of by
Reno people to Thomas Kearns, the
well known Goldfield capitalist and
mine owner yesterday. The deal
was made in Reno and Robert Pres
ton, S. E. Phippen and B. B. Ellis
are the men who disposed of the
property and thus came into posses
sion of a small fortune.
The Miller lease is considered one
of the best pieces of property in the
state and Gu one of the original To-
cations of the Rawhide district At
the present zine there is 75-foot
shaft on the property with about 40
feet of drifts running both ways on
the ledge. The main ore body is
about four feet in width and the
average value is $3.50 to the ton,
principally in gold.
The Hooligan No. claim on
which the lease is located is the
property of l.. Van Dorm and asso-
ciates. They are at present work
ing the property and the main ledge
or the district passes through the
Hooligan No. and is found on
the Miller lease. Some of the ore
from the ledge on the Miller lease
is of the picture variety and fairly
glistens with the yellow metal. The
new owners of the lease are prepar-
ing to carry on vigorous campaign
of development work and expect to
make regular shipments at once

TURNING OUT
The best WORK

The bindery OF the Bonanza IS
turning out the best work in the
city, and 1t 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 suffi-
cient to establish the truth of this
statement. 1t pays to go where only
the best kind of work is done, and
it pays to patronize home industry.

CLOSE OF JOLLITY
 AT MELBOURNE

Melbourne, Friday, September 4.-Today which the entire population of Melbourne and tens of thousands of those living out side the city participated. The universal verdict Is that the crowds and traffic on the record made at the time of the visit of the Prince of Wales in 1901.
 Hobson's bay has been the scene of continuous activity the steamers convey ing thousands of sight-seers to the vari- ous points of interest and to the battle ships that are lying at anchor here. A large number of members of parliament and government officials, accompanied by many ladies, visited the Connecticut to- day and were given warm welcome aboard the ship.
 Many of the officers of the fleet were taken in automobiles this morning to the Black Spur mountains, where the most picturesque scenery in the vicinity of Melbourne Is to be found.
 That the officers and men of the fleet prefer to enjoy themselves with their new-made friends. free from official re- strictions, was strongly exemplified last evening, when very few of the Americans were present at the dinner which the federal government had arranged for 27, GOO in the exhibition building.
 Later Premier Deakin said that he thought that the men had became tired of formal ceremonies.

CONTEST AMONG VETERANS.
Vote for Comm ander Is Changed Very
 DecisveIy.

Boston, September S.-The fifth annual encampment of the United Spanish war veterans came to a close late today at a sensational session over the contest for the election of officers.
 Following the first ballot for command er-in-chief it was announced that Capt. Charles A. Simmons of Rochester, N. r., had been elected by one vote over Capt. Charles R. Newton of Hartford, Conn. The announcement of the total number of votes, however, revealed the fact that five or more ballots had been cast than had been checked off. The ballot was de- clared illegal, and the convention became uproarious, but upon the statements of both candidates that neither wished to profit by any complications and only wanted fair treatment the confusion sub sided.
 A second ballot was taken, which re- suited in the election of Captain Newton. who received 1S2 votes to IFS for Captain Simmons

HUGHES NAME TO
 60 IN PRIMARY

New York September S.-With the purpose of testing the sentiment in Manhattan for the renomination of Governor Hughes, 1t was annuonced to- night at the headquarters of the re- publican county committee at the re- publican primaries next Tuesday Gov. Hughes name would be printed on the city ticket in nine assembly districts.
 Republican leaders in the county stated tonight that they would regard the result of the primaries as morally binding upon them as to their attitude in the state convention.
 Replying to criticisms of the plan, Herbert Parsons, chairman of the county committee, said tonight:
 There is no fairness in the criticism that the enrolment is not representa- tive of the republican party. Under the law the enrolled votes, whether 10 ,000 or 100, ,000, constite the party. That is the party to which Gov. Hughes has appealed A supplemental enrolment would not help Gov. Hughes or the re- publican party"
 The assembly districts where the tests are to be made are in widely separated sections from the lower end of the city to the Bronx on both sides of the city,

The Wonders of Water.

From London Tit-Bits.
 The extent with which water mingles with bodies apparently solid is wonder full. The glittering opal, which beauty wears as an ornament, is only flint and water. In every plaster of paris statue which an Italian carries through the streets for sale there is one pound of wa ter to every four pounds of chalk. The air we breathe contains five grains of water to each cubic foot of its bulk The potatoes and turnips which are boiled for our dinner have, in their raw state the one 70 per cent and the other 90 per cent of water.
 If man weighing ten stone were
 squeezed fiat in a hydraulic press, 71A stone of water would run out and only 21a stone of dry residue remain A man
 is, chemically speaking, 45 pounds of car
 bon and nitrogen. diffused through five and half pailfuls of water In plants we find water thus mingles in no less
 wonderful manner
 sunfower evaporates one and forth pints of water a day, and cabbage about the same quantity. A wheat plant exhales in 172 days about 100000 grains of water. An acre of growing wheat, on
 this calculation, draws and passes out about ten tons of water a day. The sap
 of plants is the medium through which this mass of fluid is conveyed. It forms [ delicate pump by which the watery par ticles run with the rapidity of a swift stream. By the action of the sap va
 rious properties may be communicated to the growing plant. Timber in France is for instance, dyed by various colors being mixed with water and poured over the root of the tree. Dahlias are also colored by a similar process.

TAFT SPEAKS OF
 VERMONT RESULT
Election Returns Are Considered
 Favorable By Him
FEAR OF OVER-CONFIOENCE
Taft Will Go to Sandusky Monday, But Will Miss Labor Celebration and Then Visit the Sol
 ders' Home.

Middlebass Island, Ohio, September 3. Neither MT. Taft General Corbin nor Representative Keller would comment for publication today on the Foraker in- cident of yesterday in Toledo with the exception of the general admission that the meeting between the candidate and the senator was brought about without the previous knowledge of MT. Taft.
 Comment, indicating that the republi- can situation generally might have been improved if the Vermont majority had been less, was made today by Judge Taft.
 'The returns" he said, "are very sat isfactory. In round numbers the major ity is 3Ooo0. which is nearly what 1t was in 1904, and equal to what it was in 1900. It is an indication that there is no un- dercurrent against the republican party, and there is no trend toward such radical change in the opinion of the cleo torate as is essential to a democratic success in November. It would perhaps have been better, from the standpoint of the party managers, if the majority had been less, in order that the danger of over-confidenee might be lessened among the republicans. The vote in Vermont is much more significant as one cast un- der normal conditions, than would be the vote in Maine next week, because it is understood that the peculiar local sit uation there this year prevents a re- duced republican majority there having national bearing
 James R. Garfield and Mrs. Garfield reached here today. After a conference it was announced that Secretary Garfield would put in four days on the stump in Maine MT. Garfield will go from here to his home at Mentor, Ohio, and remain until notified by the national committee where and when he is to speak.
 Bass fishing conditions today were the best since MT. Taft has been here. The morning catch amounting to 1T bass, sheepshead aud l pickerel. Both the can didate, and Master Charlie, who fishes with hom, had all the sport they want ed.
 It was decided today that MT. Taft will not go to Sandusky in time Monday to participate in the Labor Day celebration there. He may leave here Monday even- ing for that place, that more time may be had Tuesday for a visit to the soldiers home there before the trip to Cincinna- ii begins at 80 O clock.

The action of the committee will be followed by the arrival of republican speakers who will attend to the spellbinding end of the campaign. Their arrival will mean the beginning of statewide Taft-Sherman campaign.

THE FACTORS WEDDING" DRAWS
 AN ENTHUSIASTIC AUDIENCE

The Air-Dome theatre was packed to the entrance last night with people wit messing the marriage of Miss E. Adele Edwards, a lovely young girl from Mont gomery, to Walter Bellrose, the singer. The marriage took place at Il o'clock, followed by a benefit performance given by other actors in Birmingham for the young couple. Clerk Sam Blake of the probate court officiated.
 Congratulations were showered upon the young couple who start their mar riage career under such romantic cir cumstances. They only met a few days ago, their eyes meeting while the groom was singing ballad in one of the nov ing picture theatres. It was "a case of love at first sight. They will leave shortly for Vicksburg, Miss
