EVERY LEASE ON THE
EARL is IN GOOD ORE

On the Mushett lease, on the
Earl, at the 150-foot level, there is
six feet of ore that averages $35 a
ton. A test run of 20 tons is now
being made at the Canyon mill to
determine the proper treatment of
the ore.
On the Swanson lease they are
Stopping ore on the 100 and 150-foot
levels. In these Slopes they will
knock down in the neighborhood of
1000 tons. After a careful samp-
ling of this ore, Swanson estimates
that it will run at least $40 per ton.
This ore will be put in the second
grade dump and run when the first
class dump of 800 tons now out is
completed. The ore will be milled
at the War Eagle mill, which is un-
derstood to be the only mill in the
camp at present that can handle
this ore and save the values,

The investigation into the affairs
Of the Nye and Ormsby bank case
yesterday was without much partic-
ular interest saving, of course, the
sallies and filings with which the at
torneys have RECALLED themselves
during the hearing of the case
which has been marked by extreme
bitterness among all the parties
concerned
! The morning session opened with
! Boyd still on the stand and ques-
toned as to the Jarvis ranch mat
ter which he claimed Golden wished
to turn over to Patrick. In re-
spouse to a question asked by At
torney Chartz he testified that Col
den did not come to him seeking
advice about the matter of transfer,
but was trying to sell the ranch
without the order of the court and
for this he would not stand. He
believed that Golden did wrong in
getting hot at the receiver and the
attorneys because they would moi
do just as he wished them to. He
stated that he did not get mao
about the affair but that Golden die
and had been hostile ever since. II
being pressed as to what they hat
the falling out about he stated tina
Golden had told him on the stree
that he (Golden) was going to tel
that Boyd and Hall were trying t
loot the bank

The discrepancy in the report was
later taken up and Hofer took the
stand and showed that it was a
mistake Of the typist in copying
from tie original, and thus the big
bombshell exploded harmlessly.
Golden then took the stand and
testified 70 the matter Of the money
which was sent him from the sale
OF the produce on the Churchill
ranch. He stated that there were
two postofTice orders for the sum of
1924 made out in his name, that he
received the money and left it in
the bank and had almost forgotten
| it when the letter was called to his
attention by the receiver and he
had to phone to Minden to Grant
Marsh to find out where the letter
was. He was told where it was
and had the clerk cash the orders
and the money is deposited to the
credit OF the receiver at the First

notified the receiver but thought
that one of his clerks would do so.

that $1,000 would be a fair salary

THE VALUE OF

Man Is North Ninety Dollars

SAY THE SCIENTISTS
This Same Man Is Worth $4100 at the
Age Of 30 Years-Great Waste
Through Premature Death
In America.

From the st. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Religion teaches that man cannot give
more than his life for another The SCI
enlist, after cold calculation, says that
the gift Of life cannot be more tina ma
gift of s4loo. That is something for every
person who loves his own life-or some
body elses to think about. The scientist
adds that he must be In his prime. 30
years old, to be worth s41o0 The chances
favor his being worth only $500, for that
is the value of the average life in the
United statese. How many would sell
themselves to Death for $500?
Almost everyone Indignantly denies
that he would sell himself so cheaply
The scientist replies that in 1907 ~ per
cent of the deaths in the United States
were unnecessary at that time They
could have been prevented or postponed
If the victims had only known what they
might know about the care of their
health.
These heartless facts have been given

Health" Professor Fisher has reduced
life, death and illness to matter of dol
lars and cents In an effort to prove the
economic wisdom of teaching the inhabi-
tants of tho United Statese how to live
long and keep we'll.
He bases his computation of the value
OF the average life on a table prepared
after the study of similar tables made In
England. His table is founded on the
estimate that the average worker In
America, considering all grades, from
railroad president to day laborers, earns
1926 year. His value is then the capital
that would earn S525 year at prevailing
interest rates. averages as to length of
life and revenue-yielding activity being
considered A youth with 40 years of
work ahead is worth much more than an
old man near retirement. Calculating
from this. Professor Fisher finds a baby
