THE yKfIow.ruaoArED vIHgo.

This is the first of our common Vireos to come in the spring, ,'and some morn Ing late In April hls song may be heard from the mapes.
 Not only k this our most beautiful yifeo with his yellow throat and breast and two conspicuous white wing bars, bat the song exceeds in quality those Of the other membefs of The family. T. consists of groups Of two or three sweet mellow, rather loud notes, sepafted by an interval 0f tsso CT three seconds. From early morning until late after. noon fhese notes aresang over and over while the bifd palnstakingly gleass in- sects from tie leaves of oar shade trees Occasionally the harsh alarm of cat note Is heard, number Of shofi zeod- Ing notes, following each other quick. ly.
 The nest K beautifully made stfuc. fufe, rather deep, hung from the small branches of shade trees. sometimes ap. pie trees. and covered with tree iiehens. Sometimes itisipiaeed within few feet Of tte ground like the Red-eyed Vifeos, but more often weil np in the tree.
 These Nifeos are very tame and often venture near tue window If there be small bushes near, where they can be secb at close range.
 THE RED EYED Yfnge
 This Nireo Is solive.gfecn above, while underneath, crown gray, bordered by narrow black line, and white line over the eye, two wing bars, The black line bordering the gray crown serves to difiercntiaie this bird from the Warb- ling Vifeo which in other respects IL closely resembles.
 The ted=eyed Nifeo reitefates it's ra- liner monotonons song over and over from morning to night as il keeps well up in our mapes diligently locking for insects. The song isfepeated and sung so constantly that II forms n sort of se lid background, which is apt to be overlooked iu noticing some of the oth. CT blfd notes that are less constant. A short refrain of from two to five sylla. bles K repeated with short intervals and slightly different infection, some rising, some falling, "pe' n rec, pc q rec etc.
 He k, unlike the lellow-throated l equally al home in tbe woods and the larger trees of the village, and K rarely been near the ground except In nesting time.
 The nest k similar to the one desci. bed above, hut lacks the tree liehens and k usually placed within few feel of the ground. The eggs are white. From the 7th to the 10th of May ii l the date for his arrival.

BASKETBALL
GAME SATURDAY
FOR TONOPA

The Tonopah Basketball club re-
turned from Goldfield Sunday where
they met and defeated the team of
the Blue Diamond club of that city.
From the reports of the game
brought back by the players the
contest was an exciting one
Throughout the game the Tonopah
lads were never in any danger of
being defeated Their playing was
too fast for the boys in the southern
city, who were kept guessing all the
time A number of trick plays were
used to advantage The attendance
at the game was good and the house
was crowded by admirers of the
game.
A game has been arranged by
Manager Davidson between the Ton
opah team and picked team from
Goldfield, the contest to be played
here Saturday night at the Nevada
theater and there is no doubt that
the people of Tonopah will patronize
the game as literally as the people
of Goldfield. The tickets will be Sc
cents, which includes skating before
and after the game.

How did l find the feeling con-
corning Nevada in the east? Gen
orally good. There are many people
though who believe that Nevada has
nothing but wildcat mines within it's
confines. Those individuals are in
class by themselves. They are the
one who have become unduly excited
over stories of fabulous fortunes hav-
ing been made upon few dollars in
vested, and have listened to the
smooth-tongued INSCRIPTIONS stock
seller who has disposed to them a
green certificate, and that is all.
Those who have money in large
sums for mining investments, study
in detail reports and conditions, and
have unbounded faith in the future
production of the sagebrush state.
They have carefully investigated
authentic reports like those issued
under the supervision of the director
of the mint, and when they read his
report or others of undisputed au-
thority showing Nevada's production
for the year 1908 has added $780,
100000 to the worlds wealth ant
are further convinced of the large
number of dividend-paying mines IL
the state, they unhesitatingly pro
claim their readiness to enter the
field of mining in Nevada. 1t is tina
class of investors that is going t.
bring the state to the fore.
This spring will probably no
witness a decided influx of capita
into the channels of mining, but will
the coming on of the fall campaign
Nevada will experience new leas
of life that will carry color resemb
ling that of three years ago.
"The publishing of data showin
the increasing bullion production o
Nevada is doing more to educate tn
eastern investor and instilling conf
dence that the state is one to b
considered as factor in the world

demand have now come into the
question. The electrolytic market is
nearly exhausted as well as the ware
house supply that has been stored
away to give to the market their de-
mand for refined metal. The field
for its uses has been steadily increas-
ing until today the world finds itself
confronted with shortage of the
metal for commercial purposes which
condition naturally will create a de.
mand that must be met. The supply
is inadequate. hence mines that have
been idle will again be brought into
operation. new fields will be develop
ed which as they become sufficiently
developed into producing factor in
the market will be then sought By
