falls to pieces he is as constant in his
love as the sun in its journey through
the heavens. If fortune drives the
master forth, an outcast in the world,
friendless and homeless, the faithful
dog asks no higher privilege than that
of accompanying him to guard against
danger, to fight against enemies, and
when the last scene of all comes, and
death takes the master in its embrace
and his body is laid away In the cold
ground, no matter If all other friends
pursue their way, there by his grave
side will the noble dog be found,
his head between his paws, his eyes
sad, but open in alert watchfulness,
faithful and true even to death.
The above is one of the most famous
speeches made by the late Statesman
Vest OF Missouri, made in behalf of a
plaintiff who brought suit against a
neighbor for 5000 damages for shooting
his dog. After Vest finished speaking
the jury awarded the plaintiff $500, after
two minutes consideration.

EGGS

IN HERE are two time -honored con-
undrums. one is, "Why is a
L. mouse when it spins?" The second
is, "Why does a hen cross the road?"
TO these fanciful interrogations may
be added a third, which may be taken
as q sequel or corollary Of the hen
proposition. 1t is, when is an egg a
storage egg?" In the attempt to find a
reply that will answer, expert testi-
mony is being taken by the state board
of health.
The question is indeed a right quaint
md curious one. AS many of our
readers are aware, a fresh egg in Chi
cago or New York is by no means a
fresh egg in California. That is to say,
the peculiar brand or style of egg a
lake shore dWeler would call "fresh"
by a Californian would be called
"strawy." Those of us who have
passed any portion Of our lives in the
vase wildernesscs of brick and stone
and steel called New York and Chicago
well remember the frantic attempt to
find eggs that were pure and original
and had not been tainted by their asso-
Citations or neglected in the box until
age had withered and custom stalled
their infinite variety.
Is a store egg a storage egg? Not
And yet a store egg may
have age. We presume the state board
of health will draw line of distinction
between storage eggs and store-aged
eggs.
The best way to solve the egg prob
lem is 70 keep chickens.
Then will your eggs always be new,
always be honest, always be delightful
always be pure, always be innocent, al
ways be charming, always be ambrosial,
be fresh-when there are any.

TONOPAH EXTENSION.

The same regular routine work
was conducted in the Extension dur
ing the past week with no new de-
velopments reported. All operations
are confined to the 400 and 100

being blocked out. General Mana

MACNAMARA.

Dacite continues to be encounter

during the past week. 1t has now
secured depth of 760 feet and viii
reach the 800-foot point within the
next two weeks when drifting will
be started in search of the veins cut
by the diamond drill. The shipments
for the week averaged car day
with the exception of one day missed,
the first during the year. The ore was
sent to the Western Ore Purchasing
company at Millers.
The high grade was extracted
from the usual slopes and no change
is reported in the dimension of the
ore bodies. The face of the drift
sent out from the top of 5B stope on
the 200-foot level, exposes seven feet
of good ore. The usual line of de-
velopment work is being prosecuted
in vigorous manner.

MIDWAY.

Contrary to all expectations no
startling developments were made in
the Midway during the week The
face of the drift on the 635-foot level
continued to pierce stringers, but no
large body of ore was encountered.
Every indication points to the early
finding of good ledge in this por-
ton of the mine for stringer after
stringer has been cut. The work of
following up these stringers will be
undertaken at an early date, but at
present this drift will be continued.
On the other levels the usual work
was continued on. the various lodges
which produced the regular amount

ELY, April ga test case to de-

eight-hour law passed by the last
legislature for the benefit of open
pit miners in this state will shortly
be brought in the district court by

Careful consideration has been
given to this matter by both the
management of the company, and it's
counsel, and its counsel has advised
that the statute is unconstitutional.
OF course, the men employed are in
terested in having an early declara-
ton by the court upon this point,
and We wish 1t understood that the
company is about to test the ques-
ton with view, IL necessary, of hav-
ing the court of last resort pass up
on it. wish also to say that every
reasonable protection, so far as the
legal phases of the question are con-
cerned, will be afforded the employees
by the company"

Skidoo has now the air and stride
of a we'll established mining camp,
both in its external appearance and
in its steady transformations produc-
ton. Over fifty men are on the pay
roll, about twenty-five are working
on surrounding properties, and
about twenty-five on leases. Out
side of these there are not five men
in the camp and two of that num-
Der are working in the store. There
has not been one idle man in camp
for six months.
Ten stamps are dropping on COM
pany ore, treating from thirty-five to
forty tons daily, averaging from $40
to $25 per ton. Five stamps are
working on leasers' ore treating a
little better than twenty tons daily,
averaging from $40 to $50 per ton.
To date Schackett has treated 525
tons, making saving of about
$3.50 per ton. Osborne about 800
tons averaging about $40 per ton;
Hoyt brothers about $50 tons averag-
ing about $25 per ton leaving yet to
be milled about $50 tons for Schac-
kett, 500 tons for Osborne, 400 tons
for Hoyt brothers, all of slightly
higher grade than that milled
This concludes all leasing on the
Skidoo company's property as no re-
newals have been given. All the ore
was taken from veins one foot to
four feet in width and from depth
not to exceed 100 feet The cost for
milling, hauling and royalty was
about SO per ton.
At present but ten of the stamps
are operated by water power, but
with the additional water being add
ed all fifteen will be so run in a few
days.
The outside properties producing
at present commercial ore with from
one to four men are the Wilkinson,
Mcdonald and Goachers leases on
the Cocopah ground and the Valley
View, Contact, American Eagle,
Augerbury and Cashier properties.
The Poppies, Saddle Rocks, Rosies.
Gold Bars and Hikes, thirty-two,
have all excellent ore showings but
have not been worked since the first
of the year.
The Wilkinson, Mcdonald and
Goache leases on the Cocopah
ground have each with from three to
four men since the first of the year
have blocked out from 500 to 1900
tons of ore that average from SIS to
$25 to the ton, without sorting, from
veins that average about three feet
in width. Their milling. transporta-
ton and royalty charges at present
are about $14 per ton and have
caused them to delay milling until
they obtain mill of their own.
These are all the leases permitted on
the Cocopah.
The other producers mentioned
above are in this section and one
five-stamp mill is now certain and
another probably will open up this
section within the next few months.
Water will be furnished from the
water of the fifteen-stamp mill above
about 500 feet.

PROHIBl TlON
IN WEBER
COUNTY
PETITION SIGNED BY SIX THOUS-
AND RESIDENTS.
Presented to Representatives Asking
for Statewide Prohibition-Must
Heed Warnings.

A committee of twenty-five repre-
senting the prohibition movement In
Weber county held a conference with
the Weber county representatives in
the lower house of the legislature In
the Eccles building last evening and
handed to the representatives petitions
from the people asking for statewide
prohibition. containing the names of
5000 residents OF the county.
Apostle D. o. Mckay headed the
committee. and In a short but pointed
speech. presented the petitions to the
representatives, stating to them that
the 5000 petitioners were asking for
statewide prohibition with no compro-
mise point for consideration. Other
members of the committee expressed
themselves in much the same vein.
as did Apostle Mckay. all of whom
undertook to impress upon the repre-
sentatives that the petitions voiced
the sentiment Of the people OF Weber
county and that they as representa-
tives OF the people, would be expected
to heed the admonltion Of their con-
stituency.
All the representative stated that
they were the servants Of the people
and would surely listen to. the peti-
tions from their constituents, but they
made no pledge regarding their future
action on the prohibition question that
is now before the state legislature.
Apostle Mckay stated last evening
that the petitions had been circulated
among all the people and that the
movement was not q frenZied religious
undertaking on the part of any partic-
ular church organization and that tho
committee presenting the petitions to
the Weber county representatives to
the legislature was made up Of men
from all churches, business men, farm
ers, and all who were concerned in the
stamping out Of the liquor traffic in
the state Of Utah.
Mr. Mckay also stated that the
Weber county senators. Kuchier and
Hulaniski, had been invited to attend
the meeting Of last night and that
Senator Hulanisd had declined the
invitation. Senator Kuchler express
ed his willingness to be present but
was prevented from doing so because
of other pressing business. In view
of this fact. 1t was unanimously voted
that the petitions presented to the rep
resentatiyes present be sent to Sena-
tor Kuchler for his consideration.
1t is said by some who attended the
meeting that II was very harmonious
one and the petitioners left the meet
ing feeling that the Weber county rep
resentatives In the Legislature will act
wisely in the matter before them.
