New York, and William Tenka of Phil

lots of speed. He has taken off
some weight. however. in order TO get
into his best form. Henderson has

Tenka bad quite some work with

that Easton may lose the services OF

DAILY HEALTH HINT
Signs Of Progress.


A hundred years ago smallpox was hu-
manity's greatest scourge. In Europe the
woman whose face was not SCARED with
the marks OF this dread disease was con-
sidered beautiful, while those who died
with it far eutnumbered those who sur
vived. The death rate among children was
frightful. To-day smallpox is almost un-
known. save in communities and among
those who will not vaccinate.
yellow fever in the south has ceased to
be the terrible scourage it once was for ne
other reason than that the insanitary CEN
ditions that produced it have been abol-
ished So cholera. Nth disease, has been
practically wiped out in all civilized coun-
tries. What has been done with the dis
eases mentioned can and will be accom-
pHshed in time with all the known pre-
ventable diseases-Chicago Tribune.

Suede has held it's place during the
winter as a material for boots, but
when summer comes II will be to some
extent displaced by its more durable
and wearable cousin, bucksl<in, which
this year comes in black and tan as
well as in the usual white. While every
one will admit that this soft, porous
leather is very warm, it is without
doubt the most durable OF all leather,
and If It is carefully kept it will not
lose its shape.
In any case, II is a comfort to think
that the woman OF fashion need not
wear the agonizing shoes Of patent
leather, nor need she limp about In
tissue-like shoes Of kid. AT least buck
skin is heavy enough TO stand rea-
sonable sole, an important matter II
thes hoe is to be at all comfortable.

KAWICH PROPERTY BOUGHT
BY NEBRASKA CAPITALIST

A mining deal, which involved the
sum of $4,000, was contaminated in
Tonopah this week, whereby II. G..
Schmidt of Tonopah disposed of his in
terests in the Goldsight Mining com
pany, which amounted to 100000 shares,
to M. T. Rowland Of Central City, Ne
braska, the payments to be made at
stated periods. The new owners intend
to start up operations Immediately,
contracts already having been, let for
additional sinking from the 400-foot
level. The property is situated on the
Eden side of the Kawich range, five
miles from Silver Bow. During the
past three years a great deal of devel-
opment and prospecting work has bec~
done on the claims and an excellent
showing of milling ore has been made.
On account of the ~steepness of the hill
nearly all the work has been done by
tunnels, one of which taps the ledge at
a depth of 400 feet in a distance of 440
feet, making nearly foot for foot. The
ledge is about is feet wide, and while
il carries pretty low values there
are several stringers which carry high
values, making about 10 feet of the
vein an excellent milling proposition

STRIKE NEAR LOvELOCK
CREATES MUCH EXCITEMENT

A strike made last Saturday in the
low foot hills, about five miles south
west of Lovelock, created much ex-
citement here the fore part of the
week. SAYS the Tribune. Z. n. Burns,
engaged during the past several weeks
in prospecting some claims he has there,
opened up a rich looking ore shoot In a
ledge in which he is operating, and ON
assay it gave values running above
$1J to the ton.
This property is located about a mile
west of the Sims Hill strike, reported
exclusively in the columns of the Love
lock Tribune several months ago. On
the Sims-Hill property, which was sold
under bond to l.. A.. Friedman, a four
teen foot trench was sunk down to
about twelve feet depth, and there ordi-
nary values obtained. Work, however,
did not continue on the property.
The strike made by Mr.. Burns gives
evidence of the rich character of this
section. His ledge lies between a
granite and lime formation and the
ledge matter in appearance resembles
blue lime. l.. A. Friedman inspected
the property this week and gives a
favorable report on it.

ToNOPAH MINING COMPANY
HAS FORTUNE IN TREASURY

w. +. O'Meara was in receipt OF a
letter from j. w. Sparks of Phlladei-
phia yesterday, that contained the best
kind of news concerning the affairs OF
the old Tonopah Mining company. TIT
letter states that the annual report of
the company will be issued this week,
and that it will show that there is
5000, 900 worth of ore blocked out and
measurable in the %company's mines at
Tonopah today. 1t will also show that
there is s3,00O,0 600 to $~4,000,000 worth
of additional ore which, while not suf-
ficiently opened up to permit OF cold
blooded measuring, is still conceded to
be Gin sight, by the company's en-
gineers.
While this information will come as
a surprise to even those who have con
sidercd that they knew all about the ore
re serves in the Tonopah mine, it is not
the only good news that is contained In
Mr.. Sparks letter. Farther along 1t Is
stated that the report will also disclose
that fact that there is a treasury re
serve of ST., O9S, 900. Out of this must
come the $350,000 dividend that is
posted for this month, so that the fscal
wear will close with an actual, undls
Lurscd and unincumbered cash reserve
of $7lS,000. With this amount of money
to begin the new year with, and witt
ore oserves as stated, 1t looks az
though the coming twelve months would
lie the most prosperous in the history OF
the mines that made jim Butter IA
nous, and which paved the way for thu
~liggest mining boom that the worlC

THE ORIGIN OF PETROLEUM.

tins source, as well as some Goals en-
tirely, since in Wales a coal has been
cut by drilling at a depth of 10000
feet, which reveals no carboniferous
origin as well as no oxygen content.
and which may have been a petroleum
residue such as asphalt that was sub
Jeeted to terrific Obstructive distillation.
If oil be ascribed to an animal origin.
there would arise and remain a great
deal of nitrogenous matter to be ac-
counted for and not found in petroleum.
except through i~rfltration. On the
other hand, the amount Of fat or oil in
animal remains is insignificant com
pared with great quantity of petroleum
that has been discovered. Further in
superable difficulties are such as the
proximity of fields to volcanic seats. or
their parallelism on highlands adjacent
to older volcanic seats in mountain
chains, and the finding of petroleum in
the more ancient and deep seated Si!u-
rian strata when but little organic mat
ter was in existence, so that the de-
position of oil in crystalline schist, as
found in Placerita Canyon, Cal, while
sinking a shaft for gold ore, would
forever remain inexplicable. Schist is
slate, highly metamorphosed and thor
oughly crystalline, through having I'M
dergone and been exposed to heat and
pressure such as forms marbles of
limestones, where temperature alone
should have burned up the oil content,
under any theory but that of a mineral
origin. Another difficulty, aside from
that of oxygen as p~ropounded by Knox,
is the finding of oil below and not
above coal beds, wherein the difference
in the matter of gravity, would give
rise to another mystery, since oil must
rise and not descend through the moist
strata.
On the other hand, ascrIbing the for
nation of hydrocarbon compounds to a
mineral origin, and following the mat
ter through as herein exposed, the find
ing of marine fauna and fiora in oil
fields is not Incompatible with this
theory.

GOOD FIND is MADE ON
DAISY FRACTION AT JESSUP

Jessup has been the scene of much
rejoicing for the past few days over the
strike made on the Daisy Fraction. AT
a depth of forty feet in this claim, four
feet of lead carbonate ore has been
found which ASSAYS $40 in gold, silver
and lead. This shipping product,
which. in addition to the gold and sii-
yer values, carries 20 per cent lead,
making the treatment of the same a
minimum expense, is being extracted
for shipment.
AS depth is attained ON the Daisy
Fraction the ore body widens and mas
all the earmarks of developing INTO an
enormous body. The Daisy Fraction $
shipping product largely contributes to
the mineral assets of this camp. This
claim win undoubtedly be a shipper OF
note in the very near future Tonopah
