FIRES THAT NEVER GO OUT

TN Siam is a fire that not emily lasts for years,
but has what have been aptly termed lineal
descendants" 1t is to be found in Buddhist
temple near Bangkok, where every fourth
year, at certain period, the priests light Il
fresh fire in big braZicr. This flame IS kept
alive for four wears, and is in turn eNtinguIshed
after supplying u brand to ignite its successor.
lnasmuch as this practice has obtained for
upward of two centuries, the Buddhist fire of
Bangkok is, in a sense, the oldest in the world.
Another long-term fire is said to exist at
Sarfad, Persia. This flame is a symbol of re-
ligious fervor, and 1T is death to extingush it,
and it is claimed, it has burned for seventy
years. In explanation of this curious rite, it
is explained that the Persians, rigid Moham-
medans and regarding their former fire worship
ing faith with detestatlon, nevertheless suffer
the Sarhad flame to continue to display their
gratitude for service rendered high official
of the Persian Government manv years ago.
At that time, it is said, pous Parsee. who
had come to trade at Sarhad was the happy
means of saving the Grand Vizir from assassi
nation. So the grateful Shah of that day
ordered that the fire lighted by the Parsee
should be kept alive indefinitely.
There are some regions of the earth, like
those inhabited by the Eskimos, where the
motive for retaining fires for long periods hes
III the great difficulty of obtaining means for
lighting new ones. One traveller reports seeing
a fire in Lapland that had not been extinguished
in seven years. 1t had been carried from place
to place in an old ships bucket.
England claims one OF the oldest hres IN the
world, that in an inn called the Checkers in
Osmotherly. This inn, the story runs has re-
manned in charge of the same family for one
hundred years, and during that period the fire
in the kitchen has never been extinguished.
The keeping up of fires for years at a time
is said to be sometimes an incident of Il Scilian
vendetta. The wrongcd individual when
lighting his " fire of vengeance" is said to take
solemn oath that it shall not be extinguished
until his thirst for revenge shall have been
Ca x,f
There is on record trial in Palermo wherein
it was shown that the accused, charged with
murder had kept his kitchen fire alght for
five years.

Rich Nickel Ore
Chimney struck

News received this week FROM cotton
wood canyon indicates that very rich
strike has been made in the nickle mines
near Boyer. A correspondent writing
to the Tribune from Cottonwood canyon
says.
The American Nickle company ol
New York, which has been steadily le=
veloping the nickle property near Boyer
for the past twelve years; has ouened up
rich body of ore that their superb
tendent Chas. A. Bell, calls chimney
No. 2. This body of mineral ore was
tapped last Friday night, and is without
doubt the largest and in grade ranks
far above anything heretofore discovered
on the property.
The correspondent states that the dis
coyery OF this new ore chimney places
this new property in the first rank of
the nickle mines of the world
The company is now steadily drifting
on the ore body, and it is proving up ig
a substantial manner.

THE government WILL
ESTABLISH INDIAN
SCHOOL HERE

The United States government has
purchased from w. C. Pitt in Lovelock,
two acres of ground in the western
portion of the town near the indian
village and will shortly begiu the con-
struction of two school buildings,
which will be used for the instruction
of the indian children of LOvelOck and
the near surrounding territory.
Superintendent G. IL. Ashbury of the
Carso. indian school was in Lovelock
yesterday, looking alter the final details
of the transfer of tie ground by Mr.

representative of the Tribune, that the
government had decided ON the estab-
Iishment of the school here, after having
made "a thorough study OF the indians Of
this vicinity, AID that large amount OF
money would be spent in erecting the
buildings and il tue instruction of the
indians. "There are in Lovelock alone, ;"
he said "between twenty and thirty
indian .childreu,o and of the authentic
information we have of the number of
indian children in outlying districts, the

eral plan, as the school at McDermitt is
conducted. Two buildings will be cree
ted here, one for the teacher and at end
ants and one for school instruction.
Mr.. Asbury did not state when the con.

News from Seven
TrOughs

(E'rom the Seven Troughs Mner.)
On the Harris lease, drifting was
commenced at the bottom of the 60
foot winze on the 200 foot level Thurs
day. The vein at this point is about
3 to 5 feet in width and presents a full
face of milling ore. Drifts are to be
is to the north that the greatest re.
suits are expected. AT a depth Of from
10 to 30 feet in the winze the ore av-
eragcd above 800. This rich shoot
dipped out OF the wnze to the north
and it is probable that it will be en-
vountered again in the north drift.
A crosscut is to be driven to tn,
west vein at the 260 foot level to tap
the ore which was first found in cross
cutting at the 2Q0foot level. At the
200 the veins lie very near each other
being separated by black dykes not
more than 10 feet in thickness. AS
they seem to be convcrging the man
agement expects another rich body OF
ore at this junction and work is being
carried on at full speed in this drift.
The first ore for the mill is to be
hauled Saturday, and after this run,
which is to consist of about 100 tons
stopping for second and larger run
will be commenced on both the 200
and 260-foot levels.
Up to date it has been the policy of
the management to develop the mine
so as to be able to stope ore in sufli-
cient quantity to keep ten stamps
dropping continuously.
The Mazuma Hills Leasing company
has opened up, in the lowest workings
of the mine, a large body of ore as rich
as, if not richer, than that for which
the lease became famous.
In the north drift from the 265foot
level, the shoot carries three feet of
high grade milling ore besides good
sized stringer of picture rock. This
shoot has already been penetrated for
more than twenty feet with no diminu-
tion, either in the size of the body OF
the grade of the ore.
Raises are being run on both levels
and men are busy extracting ore from
four different places. in the mine.

MRS. BAEARLEy PROVES
HERSELF A HEROINE

Many elucidat e accounts OF the
recent fire have been published. The
following is a portion of Va story as
pul shed in the Goldgfeld Tribune:
The blaze WAS started by a defective
gasoline machine in the basement of
the Stagg Inn, which was closed at the
time, and the first alarm was given by
Mrs. Bearley, landlady of the Franklin
hotel, next door. She ran through the
halls of tho house shouting fire, thus
saving the lives of her guests.
The hotel was quickly emptied.
Looking around her, Mrs. Brearley
saw that Mary Mcclure, chamber
maid, was not in sioht. Without n
question or hesitation, tho landlady
rushed into the burning building, up
the frc-surrounded stairway and
through the smoko.flled hall. At tho
end she found the cbambermaid pros
trate on the floor, where she had
tainted.
Mrs. Brearlcy picked up the slight
form of the girl and threw it over her
shoulder. She regaincd the first floor
and the street just as the stairway col
lapscd.
