Kindergarten in High Grade.

The kindergarten mine is looking
better than ever. They are getting in
under the rich old shoot and have
eighteen inches of 5000 ore and the
vein is widening. superintendent Chas.
II. Ellithorpe is decidedly pleased with
conditions in the big property and
while he has little to. give out at this
particular time, predicts that in the
near future the kindergarten will be
one Of the biggest producers in the
district.
Dingee and O'Connel yesterday shot
into rich ore. Today they are saving
every pound. 1t averages around 5000
a ton. 1t is too late to get full de-
tails of the strike but it is known that
leaving the shaft and drifting west
to the rhyolite dyke they struck the
vein which showed values on the sur
face. This property is located on the
Boilermaker.
While the management of the Wi
hula have made two big ~clean-ups dur
ing the past two months, they are
careful not to speak too glowingly of
the amount of bullion sent to Carson.
The reason is that they do not wish
exaggerated accounts to go out. We
know, however, that the Wihuja is a
steady producer and the best paying
in the district. John Is. New
man. the manager, deserves great cred
il for results obtained.

MACHINERY ARRIVES FOR
DEEP WORK AT AUSTIN

Austin, New, July l5.-The 6O-horse
power hoist for the Austin Manhattan
company has arrived and will have to
wait but a short time before it can
be installed at the big station at the
junction of the Frost shaft and the
tunnel. 1t is a double drum reversible

Mazuma, New, July 15.-The man
agement of the Florence lease estimate
that it will take fifteen to twenty feet
extension of the crosscut on the 300
foot level to reach the big west vein
encountered on the 200-foot level. So
fabulously rich and extensive was the
shoot on the 200-foot level that the
entire district has been anxiouSly wait
ing the result of developments in the
crosscut at the 800. The writer was
down the shaft this afternoon and
saw the east vein which has been cut.
This is known as the gold vein and is
richer and stronger than it was above
on the 200. The big west vein lies 80
feet west of the gold vein on the 200.
In the crosscut at the 300 a point has
been reached fifteen feet to the west
of the gold vein, so that in fifteen or
twenty feet the management expects to
cut the big vein. If it shows the
same degree of improvement the gold
vein has, it will be the biggest mine
in Nevada.

START WORK ON FLYER CLAIMS.

Dave Gelder of the Flyer group of
copper claims was in Yerington during
the week and made arrangements with
Dan Croft of Buckskin to do some
work on this property. These claims
are situated near the Nevada-Douglas
holdings, and are considered by COM
petent judges to be worth the outlay
of considerable money in the develop
ment. From the little work that has
been done a strong ledge has been un-
covered at different points, from which
fattering assay returns have been had.

POWER EQUIPMENTS
GOING IN AT AUSTIN

The steam plant and hosting ma
chinery that recently arrived for the
Maricopa Mines company, operating a
lease on the Patriot mine, has all been
delivered at the scene of the workings
and will soon be installed.
These two equipments mark the be-
ginning of a new era in productive
mining in Austin and leave no room
for doubt as to the ability of the pres
ent operating companies to carry ON i
prolonged and effective program Of
deeper exploration.
The work of ~excavating the big sta
ton is progressing rapidly as is the
work of the Austin Manhattan com
pany in every direction. The north
crosscut has been cleared and re-tim'
bered for one-third of its length, or 700
feet, and good Roadway is being made
each day. .
The pipe for the compressed al
plant has been laid half the distance
from the tunnel portal to the point OF
intersection with the north crosscut
This intersection is $500 feet from
the portal.

Petition for Fifth District Democratic Association Favored by Board of
 Education Members.
ARGUMENTBY MIR. VENNESS

The Fifth District Democratic As-
 sociation have taken the initiative in
 furthering the cause of clean politics
 Tn this city in the conduction of pri-
 maries and caucuses. Last evening a
 communication from that body signed
 by Thomas Latin. president. Fred
 Schempp. deputy registrar of voters,
 and George H. Hawkins. member of
 the executive committee of the as-
 soclat1on, was present at the meeting or the Board of Education asking per-
 mission for one of the rooms in the
 Maplewood avenue school building for
 primary use. The Democrats of that
 dlstr1ct intend to hold their caucus
 sept 29 and to hold primaries at early
 dates in October. &
 Alfred E. Venness. superintendent of the Union Typewriter Co.,, stated that when he came to this city four years ago ne was shocked when he attended the district primaries to have to go explained that the back yard was as much of part of the saloon as any two adjoining rooms are a part of a mousse. They were not asking use of the school for Democrats only but desired ths use of it for Prohibition ists. Socialists. Republicans and any other parties that may exist. The primaries. he stated are public func- tion and public. functions should be carried on by public instrumentalities. by the use of the schools, as the city would not have to lay out the yearly expenses for the erection of sheds and pooths for voting. as they could be built in, the schools with ease Fur ther the use of the schools would make the work of primaries more clean and digniffed. When saloons and pool rooms were utilized the work will cease to be dignified. The speaker cited Instances in Springfield, Mass, where the schools have been used with great success for many years for these purposes. At a saloon or barber shop primary the mass of the people do not turn 7put. 4He added that the ultra respectable people would get out and De as one with the others. in the per can go to the school because their children go there. Mr. Venness was asked If the district associations would meet the necessary outlay of such a thing if it were permitted, such as lighting. ianitor work and other ent. the associations of all the parties in each district have to meet a number of expenses for in adeauate quarters. Whatever ex- penSeS the school would entail would certainly be met.
 MT. Cullinan of the board thought that, the idea was a very elevating one. He said it should be adopted to give cleaner aspect to politics Some members thought that if this request is granted a number of similar re- quests from religious bodies-will pour in. The board some time ago adopted a resolution that the schools shall be used for school purposes only. As the present is a public matter and not private, a committee consisting of the Committee' on School Houses and the, Superintendent of Schools were ap- poipted to report back to the meeting at later date. @ s.st4,ss gte

INCREASING FEE OF REGISTRATION
New Order Signed by Post-. master General Puts the
 Cost at Ten Cents
Other Mail Changes in View

Washington, Sept. 14-Postmaster General Hitchcock has signed an order increasing the fee for the registrations of mail from to 10 cents, to take ef- feet Nov. 1. This action followed the recommendation of the committee now Investigating tbe registry service. and it is in accord with the views of the registry experts recently in conferences on the subject in Washington {
 The order also increases the maxi mum indemnity paid to the owner of a. lost or rifed registered letter from $26 to $50, thus doubling the department.e liability for valuable articles intrusted to it's registry, branch. This additional insurance of $25 for cents is granted at a much lower rate than is offered for similar amount by any private concern. s st
 The changes ordered constitute the first important move toward making the Postal Service self sustaining. The registry system is reported to be con ducted at a losss, and in order to make it pay it's way radical measures are necessary. Hence the committee inves- tigating the subject has proposed some new features, which are being consid- cred by the Postmaster General These features include the establishment of package registration system, with a five-cent fee, and of a special class for registered matter of high value, with an increase in the indemnity to $100 and an increase in the fee to A cents, the limit fixed by law.

MOTOR GIVES HIM :.
 CLOSE HAIR GUT South Norwalk Mans Head Pinioned for Half an Hour
 Beneath Flying Wheel
WIFE FINALLY
 PULLS SPARK PLUG

South Norwalk, Conn.,, Sept. 14.-- Robert A. Mathewson spent an exciting half hour on the floor of his barn yes terday while a rear wheel of his auto mobile revolved rapidly against his neck, cutting his hair and digging a furrow in his skin. He could not get up because his head was on one side of the wheel and his' shoulders on the other and behind his head were the floor and the side wall of the barn.
 Mrs. Mathewson had brought about this unpleasant predicament for her husband by fooling with the mechan- ism while he was tinkering with the rear of the machine. She finally threw in the reverse clutch and the machine gave a leap backward. knocking down MT. Mathewson and pinning his throat against the floor and the wall
 Mathewson screamed to his wife to pull out the spark plug but she was past aiding him. As soon as she real ized what she had done she fell in a faint. Mathewson yelled and struggled in vain Ii
 He could not, touch the wheel which was trimming all the hair off the .side of his head for fear of breaking his hand and he couldt not reach any of the rigid parts of the automobile with hand or foot to roll it far back enough away to escape before it jumped back on him. He did manage to put his foot against the hub and give the ma chine a push, but it was back on his neck like flash. tt
 The automobile never worked more perfectly since he bought it, Mathew son said afterward. Tn spite of the drag of the friction against the floor and the wall, the big driving wheel kept revolving at high speed jumping sideways little now and then and grinding down it's owners chin until he could move and get the smallest part of his neck in chancery again in stead of his head.
 When Mathewson's neck was seraped raw his wife revived and, following his instructions, removed the plug and cut off the power. Her husband was too weak to move and had to be car ried into his room when help came and the real juggerno ut was rolled away from him.

BOB, VEAL HELD UP AT STATION.
Sheriff Hawley's Early Morning Suspicious
 Confirmed
ISAACS DENIES OWNERSHIP

As Sheriff Sidney E. Hawley was boarding the train at Brookfield on his way to this city this morning, he no- ticed fifteen calves consigned to this city. As five, of the calves were cov- ereda with burIap and the other ten partially covered he suspected they were bob veal When the train ar- rived at Hawleyville the sheriff tele-. phoned to the police in this city to have an officer at the station when the train arrived, and also to have Meat and Milk Inspector Dr. A c. Knapp on hand.
 When the calves were taken off at the local station Dr. Knapp inspected the animals. He found that two of the calves weighed 52 pounds each Both animals had their heads and feet on and were not cleaned. The law says that veal must weigh 55 pounds, and must have head and feet off and be dressed. The inspector therefore confiscated the veal. The calves were consigned to Herman Isaacs of this| city. The only Herman Isaacs in the local directory is a hide and tallow dealer at z26 Oak street. He denies that the beef is for him. Though no arrests have yet been made, 1t is prob able that the matter will not be drop- ped. Ii
