SAME OLD STORY IN
THE SAME OLD Way

There was once man and he had
a prospect. The prospect did not dis
resemble any one of thousand neigh
boring ones. This same man was
poor, but industrious. He came to the
reporter and he said that his enter
prise was one in which all of the
world was interested. 1t meant the
salvation of the country around and
the proof of the community. Publicity
was wanted to encourage capital for
development. The story was printed
at its best and the capital came. The
next scene is set at the same spot
six months later. The man is the own
er of mine now and does not touch
prospects any more. With last long
sob the machine stops. The door is
thrown open and the man alights.
Given the same reporter, and hearty
salute The same questions are pro-
pounded, for the paper really needs
the story this time. NO! It's differ
ent now. "T am business man and
have no time for newspaper men. do
not care to answer any questions about
the mine. 1t is my mine and it is no
one else's business what the develop
ments are. | do wish that all of you

MILLER & Lux OF.
fICERS GO FREE

or Judge Sewell dismissed the suit Of
James Sheldon Lux Potter against
Henry Miller, Louis F. Monteagle,
Gustave Gutsch, l.. J. Leroy Nickel
and E. T. Allen alleging fraud in their
conduct of the affairs of the Miller and

An order committing the five defend
ants to prison for contempt also was
dismissed.
Potter was granted judgment re-
Gently for $4,000 and interest and on
his complaint that this was ignored by
the defendants, who refused to pay the
dividends due him, an order commit
ting them to Jail was issued. Several
stays of execution were granted, and
it is understood that the dismissal Of
the eitire litigation follows COM
promise affected by the persons con-
cerned whose combined wealth is es-
innate at $50,O00,000
The litigations arose over the organi-
zation by Miller and his associates of
the Miller and Lux Nevada corpora
tion, which took over all the California
property of the concern, in which Pot
ter had a large interest.

tour Of inspection of his Jurisdiction.
Wednesday morning his special car, at
tached to No. A, was cut out at I'm
lag and the Doctor spent the entire
day in the new town. Asked by a rep
resentative of the Silver State News
what he thought Of the sanitary con-
ditions at Inlay, DIR. Ainsworth re-
piled:
From what / had read in the pa
pers | expected to find hygenic condi-
tios in most deplorable state, but
after an exhaustive investigation, am
agreeably disappointed. With the
sanitary improvements now under way
completed, our department will be well
satisfied
The question of establishing an
emergency hospital at INLAY was taken
under advisement by DR.. Ainsworth.
An analysis of the Inlay water
shows that it contains precisely the
same properties as that of Humboldt.

WATCH OUT FOR
new ORE

The firm of F. C. Robins & Co. is in
receipt Of the following letter from
the Colorado School of Mines. The
ores referred to are very valuable,
pitchblende being worth at present
market rates about $25 per pound. The
firm will be pleased to show the sam
pie received to anybody calling at
their place Of business ON Bridge
street.
Dear Sir: I have your favor of re-
cent date and enclose a sample of
pitchblende ore. The black part is
the pitchblende. / regret that the
specimen is not larger but the requests
for samples have been so numerous
that we have been obliged to use small
samples in order that all requests may
be complied with.
Should you have now, or if you
should secure, any ore that resembles
the sample I shall be glad to have an
accurate determination made for you

j will thank you to show the enclos-
ed sample to interested persons and, if
possible, place it on exhibition for the
benefit of the public.

Time IN
CHINATOWN

Wednesday morning a man employ
ed at the front by the Western Pacific
came to town to blow in his pay check.
He succeeded so well in the undertak-
ing that he acquired an unwieldy
"jag" and while roaming about
Chinatown at a late hour that night,
looking for place to spend the bal
ance of his money, entered chicken
house. The Cinnamon saw him go in
the house and a call to arms was i'm
mediately sounded. A general re-
sponse was made by the male portion
of the inhabitants of the district, who
brought along a miscellaneous assort-
ment of light artillery and hostilities
were begun without loss of time. At
the first shot the intruder spread him
self flat on the ground and thus es-
capped the fusilade Of bullets. Two or
three of the chickens, however, were
not so fortunate, and their lives paid
the penalty.
Attracted by the shots, officers soon
arrived and placed the man under ar
rest. The case was heard in Judge
Robins court yesterday afternoon and
taken under advisement. Defendant
was placed under $40 cash bonds for
his appearance this morning, which he
furnished, and it is probable that by
this time he is at work earning money
for another celebration.
