MAKING THE Most OF TIN no.
ting the antics of Our friends, the
enemy, we are often impressed with
a demonstration of what admirable
adopts they are in making the most
of circumstances, minimizing differ
ces of opinion and Furnishing the
bump of mutual self-esteem, in the
hope doubtless of casting bread that
will return though it may be after
many days. 1t is now exhibited in
the hue and cry raised over the cleo
ton of c. S. Eaton, of this county, as
delegate to the National Republican
Convention. Such laudatiOn is pro-
bly, melted by the belief that MEM
bers Of the nominating convention;
if the party is successful, will be able
to hand out leading strings to the
pie-counter. This opinion has little
to commend it, however, when it is
considered that the Federal positions
are few and the prestige of the con-
vention delegate, like the function of
the drone bee, ceases the moment the
supreme act of his life is completed
while Senators with six years ten
ure of Office, and Representatives of
twO-year terms, are very likely to
consider official favors excellent fence
material to protect their personal po-
litical preserves. True the general

Jakey Henderson Came West in 10
For 23 Years Hayed in Field
Where Stricken.

Although many people in White
Pine county are acquainted with
jake Henderson, aged II years, who
lies at the point of death at the Mag
nuson rooming house, few know of
his life history, which is one filled
with the romance of the early days
of the state.
Mr.. Henderson was one of the men
to join the gold rush of 1849 to Cali
fornia, hoping to dig from the
golden placer fields a competence
which would sustain him for life.
In this he was unsuccessful and after
living in California for several years
he came to Nevada.
A miner of experience, he never
theless loved the life of ranch and
for % years he was engaged as a
hand at haying time to get in the
crop from the old Shallenbarger, now
Magnuson ranch. It was in the hay
field of this ranch that he last week
succumbed to the stroke of paralysis
which now threatens to prove fatal.
Mr. Henderson could have no bet
ter testimonial of the high esteem
in which he is generally held than
the number of callers each day who
come TO inquire about the state of
his health. There Is no doubt that

A. Smith. Mr.. Cunningham, who
was one of the members of the local
company presenting The Doctor of
Alcantara" at Good Time hall, at
tempted to plead that he was too
busy to attend the meeting but the
lodgemen refused to give in and he
attended the gathering. Immediately
after the close of the regular busi-
ness session, Mr.. Smith made
short address in which he stated that
the honor bestowed by the lodge
upon its president could not be more
fittingly given anyone. He recalled
the efforts of Mr.. Cunningham in be-
half of the order and the fact that
he has been chiefly responsible for
increasing the membership of Ely
aerie to its present proportions. He
ended by presenting the jewel in
velvet case to Mr.. Cunningham.
The recipient although taken
aback by the suddenness of the pre-
sentation, recovered himself suffi-
ciently to make a short speech of
thanks. Mr.. Cunningham will next
month attend the gathering of the
grand aerie of Eagles at Seattle,
Wash, and will without doubt wear
the jewel proudly at that meeting.
