NATIONALS RICHES
SET FORTH

Sam Gundaker and J. l.. Workman
arrived in town Saturday evening from
National, joining George B. Holleran,
of Goldfeld, and the deal was complet-
ed for the taking over of the Work
man properties at the camp mentioned
by the Macmillan -Holleran company.
When seen at the Lafayette Sunday by
the Silver State News representative
and asked as to the status of the nego-
tiations, Mr.. Gundaker said:
'tOur company has taken over the
Charleston Hill group of claims, com
monty known as the Workman property,
having made the first payment. We
shall at once incorporate under the
name of the National Mining company,
with capital stock of $1,0O0,000 OF
this amount 100000 will be treasury
stock, but the company will be in the
nature of a close corporation, and if
the proposition continues to show up
as well as it is doing at present, it is
safe to say that none of the stock
will ever reach the public"
"What has your company done to-
wards developing the property, Mr..
Gundaker?' inquired the reported
eve have had small force of men
at work for the past month running a
cross-cut tunnel, with the intention of

We did not stop at this, however, but
are continuing right on after the goia

"What will your gold samples

AT NATIONAL

Last Thursday man named c. f.
CapIe. who conducts lodging house at
the new mining camp of National, 10
miles north OF this town, is alleged to
have commenced abusing a middle aged
woman in his employ. He was made 70
stop by several men in the house, among
the number being J. A. Harvey, owner
Of a lease on one of the Charleston hill
group of claims. A complaint was

who placed him under $500 bonds 20
keep the peace, which he furnished.
Upon his release Caple started drink
ing. and going back to his lodging house
met Harvey and shook hands with him,
saving that now everything was all
right, and that they were as good
friends as ever. Harvey replied that
he felt friendly, but Caple must stop
abusing the woman. This remark
angered Cape, who jumped up saying,
"Well will kill you right here, YOU.
Drawing gun he fired pointblank at
Harvey, the bail entering just above
the heart, encountering a rib, and com
ing out on the lower left side of the
back. Just above the kidney. The wound
was Immediately dressed by a physician,
who expressed the opinion that unless
blood poisoning should develop, the
injured man would recover
In placing the revolver lack in his
pocket Caple accidentally discharged

most flagrant eorrupting of voters. Yet
it is a popularity of his mental make
up that he processes to be a political
purist and to experience a pious horror
ar all devious political practices.
AS bonafide resident of Nevada,
who would maintain a residence here a
day after official preferment was denied
him, the public have always had their
doubts. Flanagan has lived and made
his home here twenty-five years from
choice. Newlands' citizenship is coin
cident with office seeking and viii
probably terminate with his defeat on
November third His investments here
have been in unimproved real estate
which he bought at acreage values and
sold off more or less since in town lois
at enormous profit. He has never
built building other than a modest
residence, nor invested in any enter
prise of benifit in Reno or the State
No brick has he caused to be laid upoa
another, no edifice of profit or benev-
olence to be erected Yet he controls

ly missed the money. Asking her
little child who took mama g purse, she
received the reply, "Big Boy" Upon
his arrest Williams stoutly denied his
guilt, claiming that he had not been
in the vicinity of the tent that day.
The evidence of the child was hardly
enough to convict the man, but
Nemesis appeared at the trial today in
the person of a Chinaman, who saw the
man both enter and leave the tent.
Williams was found guilty of petit
larceny and will come up for sentence
in the morning.

To be a citizen of the Impe-
