A Trip To Gold Creek

These two young men, Col. Hyman
and Charlie Mayer, have returned from
their pleasure trip to Gold Creek. They
were out seven days during the storms
Of last week, and that they returned
safe and sound, goes to prove that they
belong to the tough" class. 1t has
been demonstrated that Charlie Mayer
can stand some hot water and it appears
now thay he can also stand some cold
weather.
During their trip they stopped, at.
fuckers, North Fork and Gold Creek,
and they say that at all of these places,
they had as good beds, and general ac-
commodations as they have at their own
homes.
Their objective point was Col fly
mans mining property, situated seven
miles north east from Gold Creek. 1t
Is on an elevation of about 1000 feet.
The Col. has an ideal location for a mine
being surrounded by thick timber
suitable for mining timbers as we'll as
fuel. Also Il beautiful little stream
running through the property. Five or
9 miles distant is the Bruneau river
which could be made to produce an I'M
limited supply of power Mr.. Mayer
brought in samples, two were selected,
one thought to be the best, and the
other the poorest. The result of the
assay is as follows.
The best piece went $40 in gold and
S453.25 in silver, total value per ton
$685.. a...l. ~ ..... 49,.
The poorest piece went $1g in gold
and $24S in silver, total value per ton
1864. sly
The Col. feels that ut last, he will be
rewarded for years of work and anxiety.
He certainly deserves all that can come
to him, of this worlds goods, and his
many friends will rejoice with him, in
the prospect of his good fortune.

Mote Wreck Due To Overlooking Orders

The head-on collision between freight
trains at Mote siding, near Battle
Mountain last Thursday evening
occurred during binding snowstorm
and with high wind blowing. Extra
freight train, eastbound, engine No.
2911, with Engineer J. r. Watson and
Conductor J. STICKY, collided with an
extra No. 1923, westbound, in charge of
Engineer Simpson and Conductor Nc
Manaman. Both engines and about
dozen cars were derailed.
The eastbound freight from Portland
was detoured over the Southern Pacific
on account of the cavern of tunnel on
the Shasta division of the road and had
the right of track over trains of the
same class. Engineer Watson and
Conductor Stucky were confused over
the train orders and passed the meeting
point.-Humboldt Star

ALDERMEN ARE SHOCKED At THE
COSTUMES WORN BY THE BATHERS

New York, Sept. 16--The board Of
aldermen held it's first post vacation
session yesterday and promptly got
busy with "seasonable" resolutions.
Alderman Colgan and Emener were
foremost in this respect, Mr.. Colgan
demanding that the city establish a
municipal bathing pavilion at Coney
Island while Mr.. Emener insisted, via
the resolution route, that the bathing
suit be covered with long cloak or
coat while the wearer is going to or
from the surf.
''The bathing suit which was so
much in evidence at Rockaway Beach
this summer" said the alderman,
"was sight to behold. We never
before saw such abbreviated attire
down our way. There was too much
limb display to suit our people so
they appealed to me to have restric-
tions adopted and enforced by the
hoard. '..s. -. - ...
