Senator Jones Loses Rich Gold Producer
Nine bricks Of gold agRregating in
value $13.400. were taken to ReddiDg
last week by Superintendent Musser
from the Milk Maid group Of mines
near French Gulch. The gold was taken
from 163 tons Of ore taken out on pros.
pect work at the Franklin mine. one of
the Milk Maid group. No stopping was
done. The ore was taken out while
drifting. Last month $13. 900 was taken
from 400 tons of ore. This months
output shows that the ore is becoming
more valuable. The mines were once
owned by Senator John p. Jones of Ne
vada. but were sold two months age.
They were believed to be worked out,
but recent Developments prove them to
be among the best mines in the State.

fore We struck this ore we ran through
free milling ore running about $25 a
ton. We consider it q remarkably good
showing that has passed through the
prospect stage. The nearest railroad
station to our property is Beowawe on

large town is Battle Mountain. The
property was discovered about three
months ago, and our company took it
over. We have also purchased all other

School Teachers Scarce

Ely Record: Drring tie past week
there have been a number Of resigna-
tions among teachers who had accepted
positions in various parts of White Pine
County. aud it is going to be somewhat
difficult to fill their places. 1t is passing
strange that more boys and girls Of Ne
vada do not adopt teaching as a profess
sion, but it is probably because they can
get more IN ney from other lines of

Up Matter at Present Meeting

Deputy School superintendent To Take
Up Matter at Present Meeting
White Pine News, August 20: Con.
siderable dissatisfaction has been ex.
pressed by q number Of school districts
in White Pine. Elko. Lander and Eu-
reka Counties relative to the manner in
which the recent apportionment of school
money was made By Special Deputy
Superintendent Bray at Carson.
There are 10 school districts in these
mentioned counties which did not show
the recognized number Of children on
the census list and which were not
recognized in the last distribution of
school moneys. Deputy Superintendent
Lightfoot Of this city claims the districts
were cut of without legal reasons. and
has united with Deputy G. E. Anderson
of Elko County In an effort to bring
about a correction. The districts that
are affected in this county are Bull
Greek and Steptoe, neither showing five
children on the census list.
"This matter will be taken mp at O
meeting of the Deputy School Superin-
tendents of the State at Carson next
week." said Mr.. Lightfoot yesterday.
Mr.. Anderson and myself contend that
the districts shonld receive their share
of the school money. We expect to
bring a test case ip Exc County against
the auditor and treasurer, requiring
them to take from the apportionments
Of other districts the amounts to which
these districts are entitled"

Anpealed to His Pride.

It was the most obstinate mule in
the lot and refused to enter the car OF
a train held up at little wayside sta
ton. Threats, cajolery and blows were
alike useless. The mule refused to
bulge, and the slant Of his ears told
those Of the passengers who were IA
miliar with mule ear talk that where
he was he intended to stay. Then the
aged African who was trying to load
him in said in honeyed tones:
"Whuffo' yo' behave dis way befo'
all desc strange people? Why, yo' fool
mule, doan' yo' know dat desc people
will jess believe dat yo' neber done
trabeled befo' in all yo' life?"
The long ears lost their aggressive
slant, and the beast went sedately up
the inclined plank with the air Of
man entering drawing room car for
the first time and determined not to
betray the fact.-Exchange.

The engineers Of party in the field
were continually annoyed by the curl
osity of the farmer folk in the country
round. Each and every day their prog
ress was blocked by some tnquiring
soul who would have liked to spend
the forenoon acquiring answers to
questions Of why and whittier and
how far and what for, relates the New
York Sun. At last serious faced
young man took an interested bucolic
graybeard one side and explained mat
ters.
''Now," said he, "I'm telling this to
you, and don't want 1t to go any fur
Their. We have discovered that the
earth is a parabolic hexoid, and the
ordinates and co-ordinates do not quite
tally by foot or perhaps by fourteen
inches. The place where the gap comes
has been located in that field just
ahead Of us. We don't want it men,
toned, but we are getting ready to
blow up the spot and make an incision
before beginning the operation OF join
ing the two.'
The engineers finished their labors in
peace and solitude.

Tho Shilling Request.

The wealthy auctioneer who reduced
the Inheritance of daughter to an
annuity of f104 because she had be-
come Socialist reminds one Of the
old fashioned cutting off with shil-
ling" Why shilling rather than moth
ing? Blackstone explains. The Ro-
mans used to set aside wills as de-
ficient in natural duty If they d1sin-
herited or totally passed by any child
of the testator. But the smallest leg
acy was accepted as evidence that the
testator had not lost his reason or his
memory, as the law otherwise as
sumed he had; hence the groundless
belief in England that father could
not disinherit his child without a
shilling, although the English law
knows no presumption Of insanity or
forgetfulness in such case. OF Sheri-
dan and his son Tom (and Of other ia
theirs and sons) the story is told: ia
ther-Tn cut you off with shilling.
Son-Id rather have it now, dad.
