at Waterloo,

Waterloo, May 14.-All banks have
been warned to be on the lookout for
ingenious counterfeits of IS gold pieces
which have been put into circulation
and which, the officers believe, are
made in or near Waterloo.
So perfect is the imitation in mill
ing and general appearance of metal
that almost any one. at casual glance,
would be fooled by the bogus coins.
Detective Houston today began work
on the case after report had been made
to him by a cigar dealer. who took in
one of the SIS pieces yesterday after
noon. A man came into his store and
rendered the counterfeit for cigar. He
was given back $4.95 in the genuine
coin Of the realm. Later the merchant
discovered that the coin, tho a rare
work OF art and perfect imitation,
was bogus, being made of lead, cover
ed with gold paint. The milling, the
other parts of the dies and the figures
on the coin are perfect.

be when the masks are raised. I'M

with what appears to be the sweet

out that she is So years of age

LOCAL CUSTOM

OLD TIMERS AT AUSTIN DRAFT
ED LAWS FOR SELF PRO-

1t is not of common knowledge
that the present mining law in force
in this state was originally drafted
during the early days of Austin by
the miners operating in that dis
trict. Considerable confusion had
occurred in the camp and in order
to avoid future trouble the miners
held a meeting at which the mat
ter was thoroughly threshed out
A committee was appointed and a
rough law drafted which was later
filed in the county recorders OF.
flee. The copy was discovered some
weeks ago by Joseph D. Bradley
a mining man of that city, who was
engaged in the task of loking over
the old records relative to different
mining claims.
Other records show that shortly
after congress appointed a special
commission to visit Nevada and
study the mining laws and also he
local customs of districts where no
laws were in force. History has
shown that the original agreement
at Austin was lived up to by the
miners and many serious and cost
ly conflicts were avoided.
The ideas regarding the law were
partially taken from the old Cal
ifornia mining laws, which served
as base for the federal laws on
the subject.
