Full Crew LlW To Be Tested

One of the first moves for the en-
forcement of the recent act of the leg
islation known us the Full Crew Act"
was made yesterday when at the re-
quest of the Nevada Railroad Com
mission, Attorney General Stoddard
filed a complaint against the Southern
Pacific Company for failing'to have six
men in the crew on q freight train of
over 80 cars.
The complaint which was signed by
the Attorney General, was filed in the
Justice Court OF Sparks township be-
fore Judge Pollock, yesterday and it is
believed will form the basis of test OH
the constitution llity of the law.
The complaint. shorn of legal vel-
biage states that on Sept. II of this year
the corporation rln freight train con-
sisting of ~ freight cars from Sparks to
INLAY and had only five men in the
crew instead Of SIX as by law required.
The man who was omitted from the
allegations, was the fiagman. There
WIS an engineer, a conductor and two
brakemen but no hagman.
Copies of the summons and complaint
were served yesterday on the agents of
the corporation and the spectacle of
putting railroad on trial for a crime
will be an interesting one. !. .-
The law was one of the products of
the last session All was approved March
8. 1900. It is said that for time it was
complied with By the railroad hut after
time the crews were reduced to five,
the company deciding that it was
easier to test thu law than stand the
added expense. ,.'n'

TIME Has BROUGHT CHANGES

Within our own generation the indus
try of mining has become what it never
before was since the dawn of history
1t has assumed the role of Il legitimate
business enterprise. on rs honorable
footing as manufacturing, transporta-
ton, merchandising, or banking 1t
may be made as safe as any one of these
pursuits and has the advantage of
much larger profits. At the present
time mining rests upon scientific prin-
ciples. There is now small excuse for
failure. O..
What makes u mine? The mining en-
gineer, who has practical experience and
scientific insight into all phases of the
mineral industry, will answer by saying
that it is ~ land property from the
bowels of which valuable minerals may
he extracted profitably and in COM
mercial quantities. So, also, contrary
TO popular opinion, an ore is Il mineral
deposit which, on merchantable SCALE
may be worked with profit. Such is
the definition which the legitimate
'ADi'iN''' vi t'"ioy iNN'SouiH
world over. A mining proposition
passes through number of distinct
stages, or transformations, before such
position is attained. Until it does reach
this position it's stocks are not the
proper field in which the general public,
or persons unacquainted with the min
ing industry, should b, invited or adj
vised to invest.
With this definition the picturesque
prospcctor of days now gone By does
not make of his lonely claim mine by
simply calling it such. The mountaineer,
with his pick and shovel. has only hope
strong in his breast. The sturdy little
band that is doing development work
is yet Il long, long way off from IL mine.
1t is by unmatched propositions of this
kind that the willy promoter endeavors
to entrap the creIulous. Not one in a
thousand of these schemes develops
into a real mine. A dividend produc-
ing mine is made of stern1r and better
tested stuff. Review Of r views.

Dangers Of Trespassina

Trcspassing on railrod property, in

In the same period, more than 80, 600

of these facts that many of the import

The Conjurer Confesses.

That "the hand Is quicker than the
eye" is one Of those accepted sayings
invented by someone who knew moth
Ing OF conjuring-or, as is more likely.
by some cunning conjurer who aimed
still further to hoodwink a gullible
public. The fact is that the best con.
lurer seldom makes rapid motion,
for that attracts attention. even
though 1t be not understood. The
true artist in this line is deliberate I'm
every movement, and It is mainly by
his actions that he leads his audience
to look not where they ought. but in
an entirely different direction. Mr..
David Devant, who for number OF
consecutive years has entertained
London with his ingenious tricks. has
said THE conjurer must be an actor.
by the expression of his face, by his
gestures, by the tone Of his voice, in
snort, by his acting, he, must produce

Mr.. President: This dinner was ten
dered to you by the Board of Trade and
Chamber OF Commerce on behalf of and
representing all the citizens of the Dis
trict. The Board of Trade was organized
about twenty years ago. and the Cham
ber of Commerce has had several years
of activity. 1t was soon found. after
the establishment of the present govern
ment. that there was way in which
the people OF Washington could collec-
lively voice their sentiments on local
public matters. Several Intellectual meth
oos were adopted, and. finally, the Board
OF Trade was organized. 1t is not trade
body. as its name would imply. IL has
proved almost wholly TO have been en-
gagged in civic effort II numbers over
seven hundred public-spirited citizens.
embracing practically all professions and
business occupations.
II has always been the purpose of the
organization TO consider carefully all
questions arising in civic matters and
never to declare itself on any subject
until certain that its position was right.
The effect has been that the organization
enjoys the confidence of the general and
local governments and the public. II
las done splendid constructive work and
secured many good results.
The Chamber of Commerce. with a large
number of members. was organized more
particularly to correct really neglected
branch OF public effort in the CONNER
cial, manufacturing and business inter
ests of the District and II also engages
in many civic activities. In the short
time since Its organization much has
been accomplished by its efforts. and
the city's material business Interests and
Importance thereby have made sub.
stantiai progress and Improvement. Ii
has made intelligent and comprehensive
plans for the future, and these plans we
feel confident, will prove valuable and
successful.

Lake View Crowded.

Each Thursday evening witne sses larg-
err and still larger crowds going to Lake
View, the popular resort of Mr.. Chas. }.
Ram ,burg. 1t is not only very literally
patro ized by Frederick and Thurmont,
but by the surrounding country and
villages. The crowds are very orderly
and nothing of the rowdy element is per-
mitted. This is quickly recognized by
the public and is appreciated by them.
Mr.. Ramsburg is to have strenuous OPP
position from reports, as $l2. 900 casino
and skating rink is to be erected at Brad
dock Heights.
We are sorry to see Mr.. Ramsburg
have such opposition, yet it is one Of the
things that cannot be helped; and we
trust, as Mr.. Ramsburg has been the
pioneer and has not hesitated to go ahead
and spend his money in this enterprise,
that lie will be given his due share.
In this connec ton we want to say that
no small amount of credit is due to his
capable, efficient and obliging manager,
Mr.. Stone, who has had charge of the
rink from the day it was opened. Mr..
Stone is liked by everybody and the pa
irons of the rink hope to see him contin-
ue as its manager especially as opposition
is becoming formidable.
The hotel is now in the hands of the
plasters and will be ready for guests by
June lst to 18th. so we are told. 1t is
our prediction that Lake View will con-
tinue to grow in popularity. A Ferris
Wheel, Merry Co Round and Schultz
the Schultz for this summer in addition
to the boating and bathing will make
things go, and will prove money getter
for Mr.. Ramsburg, who we wish every
success possible.

she should have at least four pounds
