boasts to the boys that his wife never
sits up for him, slipped out for cigar
the other evening after supper, and
failed to notice that his wife had her
party gown on. When he softly tip
toed into the house at a. m, says
the Record-Herald, he was slightly sur
prised to see a dewey-eyed lady trip
down the stairway, turn her back to
him and tearfully say:

Fortunately he could and did.

A GOLDEN RECORD

The report OF Nevada's State License
and Bullion Tax Agent for the quarter
ending June 80, 1909 has just been re-
leased. The report is a lengthy one and
and not only shows the States wonder
full mineral production, but gives inter-
esting data on the general business con-
ditions of Nevada, says the Humboldt
Star.
The principal feature of the report is
the data given on the production of the
mines for the first three months of this
year. In the tabulated form issued by
the State License and Bullion Tax Col
iector, the total tonnage for the three
months is given at 649,222. This ton
mage shows a value of $8,343, 635. Is OH
which tax has been collected amount
ing to $58, 924.69.
This is a remarkable record consider
ing the general depression of all kinds
of business, which has tended to hold
back the mining industry. Had condi-
tions been normal the production for the
first three months of this year would
have been at least doubled.
The mining industry just now is
more active throughout the State than
it has been during the past eighteen
months and everything points to added
general activity. Camps with merit,
which have been dormant, are taking
ON new life. Not only this. but new
fields are being opened up which offer
big inducements for both the big and
small investor.
Altogether the mining industry-Ne-
vada's leader-looks brighter now than
it has for many months, and it is safe
wager that when the final report from
the State Bullion Tax Collector for the
year 1909 is submitted, the figures
showing the mineral production of the
State will be far in excess of any pre-
vious year.

During Mr.. Bogue's last trip of in.
spection the next division point west Of
here was changed from Deep Hole to a
point two miles further west This di-
vision is now called Gerloch and the
change was made on account of under
lying water at the place where the
roundhouse and terminal buildings
were to have been erected. .....@
Good progress is being made in laying
the steel at the front and now there is
only a gap Of 20 miles between the track

East of here the track laying crew is
near Golconda, 10 miles distant, and
that part of the road is expected to be
finished by about the 10th of Septem-
Der.
AT this place large number of men
are at work on the terminal buildings
and other construction work. The
round house is fast nearing completion
