Buck ingalls, ations earn lponsds
J. Aaron Ingalls,, Familiarity known
as Buck Ingalls,, the man who has
been fighting the S. p. and its land
department to set aside certain pat
ents to mining land in OlinghOuse
district and elsewhere on the ground
that the patents were secured by
fraud is an Old newspaper man. He
is one of the most uncOmmunicatiVe
men in the country if he does not
want to talk. He has operated III Oh
inghouse for over five years with
large force of men most OF tle time
yet the residents of the district know
less about his work and what he is
doing than people that live in other
places. None OF his men will talk.
All that is known is that ingalls, keeps
a big crew hammering a tunnel about
2oGO feet long and pays every day de-
spite financial panics and other dis
couraging things. 1t is also known
hat he takes out ore and ships 1t

MUST DO THE
LEGAL WORK

Certain sections of the mining West
have been retarded in their growth
and development for many years by
the action of claim-owners, who, ne
glecting or refusing to do annual as
sessment work have invariably made
relOcations CT their claims on the first
of each succeeding year, until they
have almost forgotten the date on
which they made their first location,
says the Mining Review. And during
all this time, excepting in states that
require assessment work within 80
days after the location is made, no
mineral wealth of these locations, and
others, who have been anxious and
willing to eXpend capital in the eX-
ploitation Of the districts in which
such claims are situated, have been
barred from even getting a fOothold
in promising mining sections.
Now, however, after this evil has
existed for a quarter of a century or
more, the Government seems disposed
to stamp it out, and a recent ruling
will oblige the claim owner to do his
annual work, or crowd him out into
the cold, cold world for the edict has
gone forth that unless the work re-
Quired is performed, the claim-Owner
cannot relocate the round he pre-
viously held for a period of three
years.
The ruling Of the Interior Depart
ment which is a most excellent one,
is as follows: The failure or ne
glect Of any locator of mining claim
to perform development work of
character, in the manner and within
the time required by the laws Of the
United States, shall disqualify such
locator from relocating the ground
embraced in the original location or
mining claim, or any part thereof,
within three years of the date OF his
original location. Any attempted re-
location thereof by any of the origin
al locators shall render such location
void.

WILLOPEN W.P.
OCTOBER 80

Virgil G. Bogue, vice president and
chief engineer of the Western Pacific
railway, accompanied by Mr.. Clary,
attorney of the company, from StocA-
ton, Cal, arrived in Winnemucca Sat
urday in ais private car from the
west over the Southern Pacific. The
car was transferred over the spur to
the Western material yard and was
met there by T. }. Wyche division
engineer, who arrived from Elko in
his private car over the new road.
The party after inspecting opera
tiOnS went out to the front where the
last gap on the new transcontinental
railroad is rapidly being closed by two
big tracklaying machines. While
there has been some delay in the
work on account of the late storms,
there are only about p miles of track
to be laid to make the connection
with the California end. 1t is under
stood that Mr.. BOgue and party are
here to rush all the work and have
the new railroad completed by OctOb-
er 30. Steam shovels are being used
at every available gravel pit and just
as SOCn as engines can be secured
more gravel trains are to be put on
to rush the ballasting Of the rOadbed.
There is so much material coming in
over the new road that all the side
tracks between Winnemucca and Col
cOnda are filled with cars ready to
be sent out on the line as soon as
needed.

BECKWITH DESTROYED
BY FIRE SATURDAY

PLUMAS JUNCTION, Cal, Oct. IL
-Beckwith, one of the principal
towns of PiumaS county and the
junction of the Boca & LOyaltOn and
Sierra Valley railroads, was Saturday
nearly wiped out by fire. The blaze
started at o'clock in the Sparks
Humphrey Meat Company's store and
spread rapidly the flames being car
ried by quite a strong wind and de-
stroying everything in their path.
The loss will amout to more than
$4,000 and it will probably be years
before Beckwith is built up again.
Starting in the Sparks Humphrey
Meat Company's building the flames
quickly reached out to the Beckwith
office of the telephone company and
destroyed that, thus cutting off all
communication by phone. 1t then de-
stroyed the Middleton Bros. store

IMPROVEMENT
GOING ON

Robinson street at the junction of
Carson is Il lively place these days
and on both sides OF the street is i
gang of men.
On the north side is a gang i'll the
mint yard putting down well with
the aid OF steam engine, centri-
fugal pump and a drill. Superintend-
ent Colcord believes that he can dis
a well for what his water rent
amounts in Il year and is now
making the effort. If he gets a big
flow he will be able to supply the fed
eral court building as we'll as the
mint.
He is also having tie old wooden
sidewalk torn up and a new concr2' o
walk put in on Robinson street. II
possible he will repair the old stone
walk in front of the mint on Carson
street as foundation and will put
in an eight foot cement walk along
the front from Caroline street to Rob,
inson street and will lay a walk in the
yard.
On the south side of the street is
the Brougher construction. The Old
wooden annex to the Arlington block
is being torn down and moved away.
When the ground is cleared a new
brick wing will be added to the main
structure and most of the material for
this brick building is on the grOunG
now. The construction will begin as
soon as the men can jack up and
move section of the old wooden
house.
In other parts of The city several
buildings are going up and imprOve-
ments are being made on every hand.
The front of the county building is
being remodeied for Joe Smyth, the
men are putting in two heavy steel
beams to support the stone structure
OF tac second story and an entire
glass front will be set in place of the
Old stone walls, narrow doors and
small windows.
The building and loan company is
about ready to start the work on the
new cottage which will be rushed to
completion. Mrs. Smiths big build
ing is nearly completed and the cem-
cnt walks and improvements around
tne Governors Mansion are finished
Some remodeling will be done or

told her while driving through the
AIllS that | believed the ore resembled
the first piece of float | had discOv-
cred in 1901 and which she then wore
in ii little buckskin sack over ner
breast. She looked at the sample |
or whatever you may desire to call it,
and said she believed it came from
the same ore body. We then talked
OF how our minds seemed TO be i'll
unison and she spoke Of the time

had told her to wear it and to some
day go into the hills and point out to
me The place from which she thought
it had come. | then began to tell
her Of the details Of finding the sec
ond piece of float, but she seemed to
| to gaze at the piece of float she held
in her hand. Finally she said, You
asked me TO give you my first impress
sion concerning the source Of this
rock. Well, | am going to do it."
| She then pointed to the green capped
hills with the yellow streak just be
low the crown and told me that |
