Forest Inspector Visits Town.

G. w. Peavy, an Inspector in the
forest service, visited Gardnerville
this week and assisted supervisor
Wells in Strengthening cut a few
kinks in the business of the new
Mono reserve. 1t is quite possible
that the Inspector will recommend
that the headquarters of the Mono
reserve be stationed at a point in
Bridgeport Valley for two or three
months during the summer. A
temporary office will then be es-
tablished near the Hontoon ranch
and the forest service has approp-
rated sum of money for the con-
struction Of suitable house at
that place.

RED CANYON co.
PUSHING WORK

II. c. Jessen, who is interested in
the Red Canyon Mining Company,
in fact one of the original locators
of the claim, was down from the
property this week and from him
we learn that work on the property
is being vigorously prosecuted. A
tunnel is being driven on the
mammoth ledge and will be ex-
tended in the mountain 300 feet.
Over 100 feet has so far been
completed. When the tunnel
reaches the distance as intened
the ground will be thoroughly ex-
plored by means of crosscuts to
determine the exact extent of the
ore bodies. The big strike of a
few weeks ago was made on the ad-
joining claim and is the property
of the Red Canyon company. A
14-foot ledge of fine sulphids ore
was uncovered. The tunnel will
tap this same ledge.
If the property proves to be all
that it promises at this time, the
company will erect plant for the
reduction of the ores. Next
month representative of the CON-
pany will arrive from New York,
at which time it is hoped to have
the ground sufficiently opened to
show them the vastness of the
lodges.
The property is located within a
short distance OF the great copper
mines in the Yerington district. 1t
has been estimated by experts that
these mines have over $13,OOO,0O0
in sight and the district will soon
have railroad facilities.

new JAIL IF TOWN
DONATES A LOT

County Commissioners Starke
and Thomson called at this office
last Monday and requested us
to place the question of acquiring
a adequate building to be used as
Jail for Gardnerville squarely
before the citizens. The COM
missioners have long proposed to
do something in this regard. The
county has two steel cells which
were purchased for Jail at Buck
skin but were never used. 1t is
proposed to erect a small building,
but large enough for present needs,
and install the two steel cells. The
commissioners, however, believe
that the town should provide a
small tract of land in a suitable
location, that to be decided by the
citizens of Gardnerville.
To us it seem that the offer of
the commissioners is a very good
and one that this town should en-
deavor to take advantage of. The
matter of procuring a lot for the
jail should be a very minor under
taking.
The commissioner will take the
matter up at their next regular
meeting and in the meantime an
effort should be made by the
citizens to cooperate in the work
by securing a small strip of land.

last week that is sister, Mrs. NJ.
Evans, was seriously i'll at San
Francisco and left Immediately for
her bedside. Monday word was
received here stating that Mrs.
Evans had passed away Sunday
afternoon.
1t will be remember,d by the
readers oi this paper that Mr..
Beggs and his sister were brought
together through All advertisement
in a San Francisco paper after be-
ing lost to one another for y years,
during which time they had be-
leved each other dead.
During all the years Mrs. Evans
had resided in San Franciso.
With her husband she prospered
and two children were reared
Then came that fateful morning of
April 18th when their property
was laid in ruins and the two
children killed: Not able to stand
the terrible sorrow the father soon
after passed 10 the great beyond.
Left entirely alone to bear the
heavy burden, the widow knew not
what To do. She thought OF the
brother whom she had not seen for
so many years and placed small
notice of inquiry in a San Fran
cisco paper. A friend Of Beggs
read the notice, communicated the
fact to him and within few days
days brother and sister were re-
united. This occurred last January.
Mr. b. ggs brought his sister to
this Valley but her worry over the
past brought discomfort. She re-
turned 10 the city and death fol-
lowed.

May Build New Hall.

The Society Dania may within
short time start the erection of
hall in Gardnerville. 1t has been
the desire of the members of this
lodge for some time to build its
own home but several years ago
met with a serious drawback when
they lost heavily in the fire which
swept a portion of the town. The
finances of the lodge are now in
splendid condition and the MEM
bers believe that the money thus
expended could be invested to no
better advantage. A committee is
now at work making estimates and
looking for a suitable lot. The
action of the lodge will be guided
by the report of the committee.
