NERVOUS prostration is usually the
= result of vocation which requires
contiRual strain on the nervous
system.
IN such cases it would be wise if a
change of vocation could be made.
But this is not always possible and a
good tonic becomes a necessity.
Peruna is tonic that invigorates
without producing drug habit.

Good Strings Opening Day.

Good Strings opening Day.
The opening OF the base ball season
and the opening of the trout fishing
season are two dates not liable to be
forgotten by the average wide awake
American citizen. The season of 1909,
which opened Saturday morning at
1901 o'clock, was no exception and the
exact minute found nearly every pond
and brook in this vicinity with its full
quota of Isaak Waltons. A good share
of the anglers returned with the goods,
while Others returned with the sad story
of what might have been if someone
hadn't thrown rocks into the brook, or
the water hadn't been so high, but all
are agreed that the indications point to
a good season.
DR.. H. c. Newell and T. NJ. Howard,
pioneer fishermen, as usual opened the
season at Lawrence Pond and brought
back some very excellent samples OF
speckled beauties, only stopping when
the law as regards the maximum catch
told them they should. Charles Carr
and F. o. French also dropped lines into
the same pond and as a result brought
home 20 each, twelve pounds in all.
Others who were reported as seen or
heard of on the pond were A. u. Cum
mings and Horace Tibbetts with a string
of over 40; P E. May and Milo Hansen
with good string of trout and few
eel; Charles Howe, Ralph Laird, Clar-
ence Forest and Robert McGilivray.
Prentice Carlton and M E. Merrill
report excellent luck on the Goss Hollow
| brook and brought home about 40 and
| the same stream yielded up 20 of its best
to Henry w. Ellis.
DR.. W. B. Fitch has gladdened the
hearts of many of his patients by pass
ing around samples of his handsome
string of 65, caught in the early morn
ing while the birds were singing and be-
| fore his absence was noted. Horace
Goss, T. F. Burroughs and Leon Batch
elder spent the day on May pond and
carried away all the law would allow
| !. French and son. Eddie, camped with
party from Montpelier on the shores OF
Kettle Pond in the wilds of Lanesboro,
and while there kept their larder well
supplied with trout and, found time to
despatch hedge hog.
c. E. Simanton returned from Ryegate
with a we'll filled basket and A. F. Stone
passed the day on the private pond OF
the Lake Mansfield Trout Club, return
ing with 312 pounds of the inny ones.
The biggest catch thus far reported
however, was made by D. D. Bean Of
this place and John Mcclellan of Barton.
A days sport on Stone pond brought
them about 40 pounds of the most deli
cious lake trout. Reports from VIII
loughby, Caspian Lake, Crystal Lake
and Long Pond are all encouraging and
presage a good season for the devotees
of the rod.

DALY-WEST C0MPANY'S
APPROACHING MEETING

The annual meeting of the Daily West
Mining company will be held in Denver
on the 10Th of next month. Transfer books
will close on the 10Th of this month ana
remain closed until after the meeting.
Word comes from the east that the annual
spasmodic scramble for proxies iSon and
that another effort is to be made to wTest
control from interests now in the saddle
What basis there is for complaint against
the management this time has not so far
cropped to the surface on this end of the
line. where the greatest tranquility pre-
walls.
A conservative policy has characterized
the operations OF the company ever since
the caving of the Ontario drain tunnel
and particularly after II became apparent
that it would be a long time before the
tunnel was opened and the flooded mines
would be drained. By the time the mines
were drained and il was possible to re-
sumo the driving of the drainage avenue
into DAILY West ground the price of silver
was going to smash and the price of lead
was on the toboggan also. Labor troubles
interfered with operations. as well, and
the mana cement wisely refrained from
dissipating its surplus through the pay
ment of dividends 1t has just as wisely,
according to local opinion, made no at
tempt to crowd production, holding II
good business policy to go ahead with
the opening of the mine at much greater
depth and draining the deep workings
through the Ontario tunnel. This year
will see that work completed and the mine
placed in the pink of condition for fu-
ture operations and the resumption Of sub
stantia1 dividends.

.CHAFEY MINES
ARE SUED FOR
Property Opened by E. S. Cha.
fey Is Wanted by Parties
Formerly Holding Bond.

There has been filed in the district
court here a suit for possession of ths
| three richest claims in the camp oil
Chafey, says the Winnemucca Silver
State of Tuesday.
The suit is brought against Charles
HariOwe, Z. s. Chafey, II. w Kent
William Sims and the Chafey-Sim
Mines company. The properties under
contention are the Mayffower, Colder
Bel and Good Hope claims, from which
Harlowe, Chafey and Sims are said t.
have already taken more than 100000
and which are estimated to be worth
more than 81 600 zoe.
In the complaint Attorney Levers
representing the Dun Glen Mining
company, alleges that Henry W. Kant,
president of the Dun Glen Mining
company, and nominal defendant in
the suit, secured a lease and option 10
purchase the three mining properties
now held by Harlowe. Sims, Chafey
and the Chafey-Sims Mining company,
from Mrs. Elizabeth Hendra, James
Hendra and Elizabeth Lloyd.
He was unable to secure the money
for the Dun Glen company TO purchase
the properties and had Charles Har-
lowe, also director in the Dun Glen
company, go to the owners OF the
properties and secure an extension of
the lease. 1t is alleged that Harlowo
secured this extension after the pur-
chase price had been raised to s25. 900.
At the tire ne secured the option.
however, it is alleged that he had an
agreement with the owners of the
property - Eliza beth Hendra, James
Hendra and Elizabeth Lloyd, that if
the Dun Glen company did mot take
over the claims of the option he should
have a personal option.
The Dun Glen company, supposed to
be represented by Harlowe, failed TO
raise the necessary money in time and
Harlowe toOl an option on the claims
personally. He then transferred q
portion of his interests to f. $. Chafey
and William Sims, and later all three
incorporated the Chafey-Sims Mines
the properties and secured a deed from
the original owners.
While the Dun Glen company is
named as the plaintiff in the action,
the suit in reality is brought by Peter
II. Updike, the prominent Omaha bank
er and grain and lumber merchant.
Plaintiffs are represented by Levers &
Henderson, the Reno attorneys, whiie
p. II. Updike has a personal represent
alive on the ground in the person of
his nephew, S. G. Updike of Los An
geles. The latter named gentleman
has been at Chafey and Winnemucca
for the past several weeks. While at
Chafey he witnessed the Hendra kill
ing and is a witness today at the pre-
iiminary examination of Bernard

tive of the Silver state News, and
