DIVORCES HARD TO OBTAIN
New Law Provides DEGREES Cannot be
Granted at the First Hearing

The divorce mill is shut down in Wis
consin for whole year.
The new law provides that no final
divorce DEGREES can be granted at the
first hearing and not until year has
elapsed from the issuing by the court
Of the first irterlocutory decree.
Then if parties to the divorce still
desire to be separated they may make
their application for final decree.
The new law has another feature.
The district attorney is to be present
at divorce trials in order to protect
the interest of the children, if there
are any.
This imposes a new duty on the
district attorney. In cities of the
second and third class the Judge can
appoint a counsel to act for the state.

A HEALTHY MINING
TRANSACTION

A mining deal OF some little import
ance. and one which will soon put an
other company to work in this district
took place a few days ago when John
Chrisman, mining man and capitalist
of Salt Lake, took bond on six copper
claims in the Mason Pass section OF the
district owned by A. J. Matt and Frank
and Bill Constantine. The price to be
paid for the property is S20.0OO. and the
first payment of $500 is TO be made on
the 18th OF the coming month OF August,
the balance in six equal inssalments,
covering a period of two years. The
purchasers agree To put force OF ten or
twelve men to work immediately upon
making the first payment and to do GER
tain amount OF work in a specified time,
II is presumed that the first work done
will be the sinkiuy of shaft to depth
-rf several hnndred feet. or to the sui
phide zone. to facilitate the opening up
of the ground at that depth. The prop
erty is considered very promising one
by copper experts who have visited 1t
and some excellent reports have beer
made on it, 1t lies short distance to
the north and east of the Nevada Doug
las ground, and 90-foot tunnel now
cuts,a vein OF carbonate ore plentiiully
sprinkled with cuprite, which shows
copper content of anywhere fyoui;b'to 20
per cent. Depth will undoubtedly de-
selop the sulpi.ides asst has done in
every property in the camp, Besides
the copper, values there is a porphyry
veiii' OF some two to three-feet in width
which. carries gold values running by
assay from - to 500. Joe Harris Of Salt
Lake is the party who interested Mr..
Chrisnian in the property. and It is the
intention of the latter, so we understand,
to organize company of Utah people to
take hold OF The grogpd and make
mine out.sS' It 1t speaks well for this
district that a deal Of this nature. Is
pulled off during period of financial
depression such as the State of Nevada
has not known for many years. But
then the Yerington District has the
goods to deliver when it comes down TO
transactions in copper.

SOUTHERN PACIFIC
MAY HAVE BIG STRIKE

Galveston, Texas. Feb. 1S.-Con-
duetors of the New Orleans to San
Francisco branch of the Southern Pa
cific railroad balloted until early to-
day without arriving at a decision as
to- whether their union shall strike
against the discharge OF fellow en-
ploye.
The trouble arose when conduct
or on the FL Paso division, who served
as member of grievance commit
tee of trainmen, was discharged for
insubordination after conference
with a Southern Pacific official The
conductors held that the man was be-
ing paid by the order and not by the
railroad and that therefore could not
be discharged for that cause.
other affiliated railway trainmen's s
organizations have indicated that
they would join the conductors II a
strike is ordered. and there is a pos
slbillty that the trouble may spread
throughout the entire Southern Pa
cific system.
