Pendleton-With huckleberries plen-
tiful in the Blue mountains there is a
more general exodus of local people to
the hills than there was when the
warm season was at its height. While
the berries grow in nearly every part
of the blue mountains and are said to
be plentiful everywhere, Kamela, the
highest point on the mountains touched
by the railroad, has the reputation for
having the greatest quantities and the
largest berries.

made in boring for oil at the Hess
place, on Young's river, and depth of
470 feet has been reached. A little

tinued until 500 feet is reached, un-
less oil is struck before that time.

THE GREATEST
mining DISTRICT
in NEVADA
BERT GILLESPIE CONSIDERS
LUCKY BOY AS THE COM
ING MINING CENTER.

Bert Gillespie returned yesterday
from the Lucky Boy district, after
spending several days there looking
over the different properties. Il
would rather own the Lucky Boy
property said Mr. Gillespie, yester-
day, than any mining property in
Nevada. The showings there are
wonderful and / believe it will make
the largest mining district in the
state. The dyke upon which the big
lease is working can be traced
straight across the country for over
two miles and besides this there are
a number of other dykes. Within
the next two months the district will
be developed to a greater extent and
then there will be something doing.
In all there are about twelve diff
ferent properties in operation in the
district and before long this number
will be doubled

tiers and Nevada should especially
profit by this return of confidence in
monetary conditions. Mr.. Lee reports

WILL Serve TEN
DAYS in JAIL
DENIZEN OF COLORED DISTRICT
LACKS $50 TO PAY HER
FINE.

Little Bit, a lady of color with
reputation to match, graced the pris-
oners bench in Judge Atkinson's
court yesterday and nth a woeful
expression adjoining her sunburnt
features tried to explain why she had
created disturbance the night be-
fore. Somehow her explanation
didn't seem to fit the occasion just
right and Little Bit was sentenced to
pay fine of $40. She failed to have
the twenty concealed about her
clothing and stated to the judge that
If she had that amount she wouldn't
be in Tonopah, but in some far away
cline where scent beer was com
mon. So she was taken to the coun-
ty jail where she will have the next
ten days in which to recuperate and
make preparations for one more
grand jag. Estes, colored man
who was arrested with Little Bit, was
dismissed as it was shown he wal
trying to take her home when sh'
raised the disturbance.

TONOPAH AERIE HOLD HIGH
JINKS LAST NIGHT AT THE
PAVILION.

Eighty-county 'em-eighty Gag
let's were initiated into the mysteries
of the Fraternal Order of Eagles last
evening and consequently there are
eighty of our prominent residents
using a liberal application of arnica
and bandages today. The yells and
screams of agony that rent the air
in the vicinity of the Eagles pavilion
last evening led passersby to believe
that horde of Young Turks had
captured the city and were ruthlessly
putting our citizens to death by boil
ing them in oil.
A large number of visiting Eagles
from Goldfield, Manhattan, Round
Mountain and Millers were in attend
ance and assisted Past Worthy Presi'
dent A. A. Dewar in conducting the
initiation ceremonies.
Following the fun smoker was
INDUCED in by both new and ole

COYKENDALL
SAYS EAT PLENTY
OF RAISINS
GREAT FRESNO WIZARD SENDS
BOX OF DRIED GRAPES TO
BONANZA FORCE.

C. B. Coykendall, who is now fol-
lowing the agricultural life in the
rural districts of Fresno, California,
where he recently acquired a ten
acre farm, is boosting the raisins of
California and yesterday the Be-
nanza Office received box of this
choice delicacy. Accompanying the
box was the following note:
Regards to the office force. Eat
raisins. This is the latest bull
here.
When Coy left Tonopah we had
fond hopes of his success and his
last promise was to raise nothing but
prunes, but it appears that he has
erred from the prune bath and is
now devoting his entire time to rails
ing raisins. 1t will be remembered
that Coykendall is the inventor of the
great grating process whereby spuds
can be grown on sagebrush. The de-
tails of this invetion Mr.. Coykendall
has kept secret but it is understood
that he will purchase a ranch on the
desert somewhere between this city
and Coaldale, and start raising po
tatoes on large scale. AS farmer
Coy has no equal and we predict thai
he will have Burbank beat off the
boards when it comes to grating
that is grating vegetables ant
plants.

THE SINISTER THIRTEEN.


New Orleans States: Under the above
caption DR.. Fred ]. Mayer has prepared
a number of sanitary and hygienic hints
to housewives, and the Mississippi State
Board of Health has had them printed
in attractive pamphlet form for public
distribution The thirteen sisters SO
ominously introduced TO the public in
this booklet BY Dr.. Mayer are consamp-
ton, diphtheria, dysentery, hookworms
Hfuenza, nalarial fever, measles, pneu-
monia, scarlet fever, smallpox, tetanus,
typhoid fever and whooping cough.
These complaints constitute the prin-
cipal ills that disturb the household, the
ravages of all of which may be greatly
lessened by the adoption Of simple sani-
tary precautions, and the observance by
families Of certain easily learned by
gienic principles.
Among the dangers against which the
housewife is most eloquently warned by
DR.. Mayer IS the unspeakably deadly
househy. which carries germs of disease
and death into The household and IS re-
sponsibls for more human suffering than
any other single agency The little
