NEW MUSICAL INSTRUMENT
INSTALLED AT CASINO

One of the sweetest as well as
one of the most costly instruments
in the west has just been installed
in the Casino. The instrument con-
sists of chimes and as handled by
Ed Drake has caused many people
to go to the Casino to listen to the
sweet music. The Casino is always
on the lookout for something novel
and it is safe to say that nowhere
in the state of Nevada is there bet
ter music afforded the public at
large. The chimes are particularly
attractive. They make a decided
difference in the music, lending
charms to the charms that music
has.

THE COWBOY
TOURNAMENT To
BE A HUMMER

To the Editor of the Tonopah b.

Safeguarding articles which

has challenged all corners in the
state to a rough riding contest for
a purse of $1,000 or any part. The
challenge has already been accepted
by three of the best cowboys in the
state.
The exhibition will be one of the
very best ever given in this state.
We have twenty-five cowboys and
i've cowgirls, also upwards of TWEEN
~ good horses and bucking broncos.
The program, which will be
printed in an early issue of the Bo-
lanza, together with a cartoon, will
end to show the public what they
nay expect at the exhibition.
The show will be carried out ex-
lctly as the program states, and
here will be positively no omis-
ions. The contest will take place
either in Goldfeld or Tonopah,
which ever town offers the best in
lucement.
Our cowboys and horses will go
nto training about the twenty-nfth
lay of August, and will remain in
raining until within ten days of

EDWARD SLAVIN
Will BE BURIED
HERE TODAY

The funeral of the late Edward
Slavin will take place this morning
at o'clock from st. Patrick S
church. Mrs. Slavin, wife of the
deceased, and Miss Helene Slavin, a
daughter, arrived from Los Angeles
last evening. The former is not in
the best of health, having gone to
the southern California metropolis in
search of health. The news of the
death OF her husband was a great
shock to her as we'll as to Miss
Slavin, and the sympathy of the
community is extended to them in
their bereavement.

THE RICHEST MINE

A well informed agriculturist says
the manure applied to the soil of
England amounts to three hundred
millions of dollars, being more than
the value of its whole foreign COM
merce, and yet the grateful soil
Yields back with interest all that is
lavished upon it. And so it wOulu be
here. if we would only trust the soil
with any portion of our capital A
farmer who has made any money
spends it not in his business, but in
some other occupation. When he
ought to buy more manure he puts
out his money in some joint stock
company, to convert sunshine into
moonshine Rely upon it. our richest
mine is the barn-yard, and whatever
temptation stock or shares may offer,
the best investment for a farmer is
live stock and plough shares.
