Capt J. N. Titus has recently been
compelled to submit to treatment in the
hospital in Wichita. He has been en-
gagged in work in Wichita the past three
months and has not been well during all
Of that time. His condition is reported
very serious and his life seems to be en-
dangered according to latest reports.
His ailment is pernicious anaemia-a
disease in which the blood becomes

hope that his condition is not as bad a

FOOTBALL TANGLES.
Queer Situations That Have Developed
on the Gridiron.

Queer Situations That Have Developed
on the Gridiron.
In the fall Of 1899 Young the Cor
nell quarterback. received a bad bump
on the head during the first half of
one Of the early games and was SO
dazed that he gave the signal for the
same play eight times in succession.
The rival eleven. unable to compre-
bend such generalship. or, rather, lack
of it, became just as bewildered as
the injured quarterback and in the eff
fort to understand the unintelligible let
the Cornell backs through for a quick
touchdown.
The calling out Of numbers while the
opposing quarterback is trying to give
his team the signal for the next play
has resulted in numerous tangles. In
one of the Army and Navy contests
the quarterback of the latter eleven be-
came so confused in one instance when
tn Army players were shouting out
various numbers while he was trying
to direct the next play that he actual
ly gave his men one Of the series OF
numbers the Army men were suggest
ing. The incomprehensible signal and
the subsequent mixup may be better
imagined than explained.
On the Yale squad in 1906 there was
a man who was not only good play
er, but an excellent comedian. 1t was
told Of him that more than once he
put this gift to good account in game.
An amusing remark here, bit Of a
story there. then a touch Of buriesque.
and his rival in the line would forget
for the moment that football is too Sc
rious a matter for laughter. 1t is IN
necessary to add that the comedian
was never so interested in his Own
dramatic efforts as to fail to take ad-
vantage of their effect on the other
man.-O,-ting

SURVEYOR FAVORS
THE ROAD CLAIM
Advises Final Payment to Con-
tractor for Washington
Township Highway.
LEGAL QUESTION ARISES
CAN THE COUNTY MEET THIS
PAYMENT SINCE THREE MILE
GRAVEL ROAD LAW HAS BEEN
DECLARED ILLEGAL?

The reports of County Surveyor r.
sisted HIM in overseeing the construc-
ton of the three mile gravel road in
Washington township. have been filed
with County Auditor Demas Coe. The
road was accepted by these two Off
Gals. The county commissioners will
meet Monday, December 6, at which
time this report will be reviewed by
them and probably the allowance of
approximately $4,000 for the final pay
ment of Contractor Burke will be or
dered.
In regard to the final paymen: Of
Contractor Burke there exists a differ
ence of opinion as to whether he is
entitled to it. The supreme court has
declared the law unconstitutional but
Contractor Burke had completed his
work before that time. In some coun-
ties. after the county commissioners
have allowed the claims of contrac-
tors for such roads, the county audi.
tors have withheld payment. Such
action has been taken since the law
was declared unconstitutional. Coun-
ty Auditor Demas Coe has not an
nounced what action he will take in
regard to the payment of the claim.
However. it will be in accord with aid.
vice given by the county attorney.
All remonstrances which property
owners of Washington township wish
to file against the acceptance of the
road must be in the county auditor 8
office before the commissioners
meeting. December 6. 1t is not known
but what the road is entirely accept.
able to all the property owners.

Teaehino Baby to Walk.

Never encourage a baby to try to
walk if he seems unwilling to learn.
The sockets of the joints are very shall
low in tiny children and the bones so
feebly connected that they are easily
dislocated. Besides, bowed legs are
very much easier to avoid than to cure.
and standing before the legs are strong

may result in permanent deformity.

The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1909-12-25
The Weather Here and There

~ OLDFIELD is experiencing colder weather for early winter than
at any other time since this section was inhabited. Southern
- Nevada, at this latitude, is usually not severe in winter, but we
are getting a taste Of the unusual weather predominatng every
where throughout the country. So far, there is no suffering here
and will not be unless the temperature fall considerably lower and
snow remain on the ground continuously. The air is too dry here to
cause much suffering, but those accounts which we have from the
East, and Is well from Texas, of numbers of persons freezing to death,
are narrowing in the extreme. Very few persons actually realize the
danger and suffering that may come upon one from exposure to the
bitter cold Of our great lakes, for instance, or Of the "northers' Of
Texas, or of the northern regions of the United States or Canada. The
News has had a number of accounts of the results of such suffering.
Nine corpses were found adrift in q boat on Lake Erie. Twentythree
in all are supposed to have been lost by the laundering of the ferry
boat in the middle of Lake Eric.
1t $ . dreadful, awful death to die, and the narrowing thoughts
of those who realize their doom must be something appalling. Nature
ness, ingenuity, and persistence Of man, large portions Of the earth
which are now well peopled would be unfit for human habiaton' The
elements are kind in their season and on occasion, but they also have
their savage moods, and those who are caught in those moods survive
them only through tremendous vitality or favorable chance. One can.
not read the accounts Of such suffering and loss of life without shnd-
dering. and Tightening of the heart.

Gold6eld a Metropolis

~ OLDFIELD is destined to become an important railroad center
Every railroad project Of the southwest is heading this way
~ The News was the first to announce authoratvely that Gold
field was to become the headquarters Of the Tonopah and Goldfelc
railroad through the removal Of it's shops and general Offices to this
point.
The News some days ago was able to officially announce the build
ing Of the Goldfeld- Ely railroad which will put Goldfeld on a trunk
line from the coast to the east.
Today The News is permitted to officially announce that this city
is to become the terminus of another railroad, the Goldfeld-Bodie roaC
to be built into the Bodie country from Coaldale or Tonopah juno
ton on the Tonopah and Goldfeld line, and the trains to run into
sGoldfeId direct, as the headquarters. What with the Tonopah and
Goldfed, the Goldfeld and Bodie, the Tonopah and Tidewater, the
l.. v. & T. and the Ely-Goldfeld railroads, with the shops and general
offices Of at least one road here, certainly Goldfeld is fast establish
ing herself as a railroad center of Importance, and placing her future
on such sound foundation that mines may come and mines may 60
but the town will go on forever.
The Bodie road will tap one of the richest sections of the west
rich in lumber and in mineral and as nearly all its tonnage will come
to Goldfeld it will make this a lumber as well as mining town. But
while ostensibly a lumber road only, 1T is not improbable that the new
Bodie road may be a link in a through road to San Francisco. Such
a road has been forecast in these columns for months back and every
new move Of the railroads of this section seems to presage such a
contamination.
With the embodiment Of the railroad situation and with the pros
pect Of an agricultural empire south of us, with a mining district that
is constantly growing in production, there is no reason why Goldfeld
should not become a large city, one of the two largest cities between
Denver and the Pacific coast.

GET GOOD ORE FROM
MONTEZUMA canon

Messrs. Lamb and Williams, who
have a two year lease on the Whittaks
property, known as the January mine
in Montezuma canyon, brought in 81
tons of ore from their workings Nor
day, and yesterday received their pg
from the Nevada-G oldfeld Reduction
Works at the rate of sos per ton. Ik
ore is 2 white quartz, carrying values
in lead, silver and gold, the principal
value in silver. There is a little copper
content in the ore, and owing 70 'fs
high silica content it is a "boaus
ore at the smelters.
The January adjoins the old Bullion
mine, from which rich silver and gon
ore was shipped to Austin in the eafl
days, long before Goldfeld had been
discovered. The leasers are wofklns
steadily in the old January worklnsA
and r finding some ore that can D
shipped at once, and in addition 70 1aA'
ing out this ore they are prospecting lo'
new ore bodies.
