Hunters Return Empty Handed.

Messrs. J. W. Meyers and Rev.
Benjamin NJ. Charlton were not as
successful in the capture of either
game or fish as have been some others
who have gone forth to hunt and
fish. They passed over the Steptoe
Valley and across the mountain In the
eastern portion of the district and en-
camped behind a clump of willows for
the night. Mr.. Meyers acted as the
cook of the party and the Dominic
attended to the fire. The tender
foot complained of having very sore
feet and this does not refer to Mr..
Meyers. In the early morning the
twain rose betimes and meandered
down to the Cave Creek TO fish and
they caught nothing.
The weary fishermen then wendell
their way to the saw mill of Mr.. Nc
Donald and ate a really square meal
up in Gullford Canyon. Mr.. Nc
Donald then accompanied the min
lister and his deacon on the hunt for
game and not getting anything they
were passing down the mountain on
the homeward way when a mountain
lion chased the saw mill man down
the hill getting in between the
preacher and Mr.. Mcdonald. The
only thing the two hunters caught In
the four days absence from home was
a good soaking as they got lost on
the return trip and the rain caught
more than they did. The men did
say that the view on the mountain as
they came insight of the lighted dis
tricf ahouf Q.Ak n'clock n m was
like to that of Broadway, New York
City. Some of the friends of the two
men say that they did not go hunting
at all but spent a couple of days in
Ogden.

HAS NEW
NINE FOR SALE
HAS SECURED AN OPTION IN
BLACK CANYON AND WILL GO
TO NEW YORK IN FINE STYLE
TO FINANCE PROPERTY.

Chris M~atovich, the pioneer min
ing man from Black Canyon, spent a
part of the week in Lovelock con-
ferring with his associates relative to
a big sale to be contaminated and
which includes the best property In
the famous district, says the Love-
lock Tribune. The property is to be
bonded at once and negotiations will
be at once started on the sale.
Death Valley Scotty," the man of
mystery. who has spent the past year
or more In the Black Canyon district,
has secured an option and from re-
liable source Ii is learned that he will
go east at once and place the proper
ty with some of his wealthy friends.
Mr.. Matovich, when interviewed re-
garding the proposed sale, said:
1T recently developed that Death
Valley Scotty vas aware of the fact
that fabulous values existed on our
ground, and he took a lease simply
for the purpose of prospecting. He
worked quietly and alone and no one
knew of his operations. After he had
secured the option on the ground he
divulged the fact that he had en-
countered one Of the richest stringers
ever found in the state and that he
had taken out twenty-five sacks of
ore.
This ore, some of the samples OF
which, Scotty was showing around
town, was almost pure gold, and 1t Is
estimated that the stuff will easily go
$1,000 a sack. This ore was taken
from the Post No. l claim and the
vein from which it was taken is en-
tirely new, never having been work.
ed before.
"Scotty Is going to New York and
other eastern cities and he says that
he will travel in a special train,
which will be paid for with high
grade ore from the property.
IF arrangements can be perfected,
Scotty will leave Saturday or Sunday
and he will travel in style. He will
go first to Denver and from there to
New Orleans, his final destination be-
ing New York. He will take two or
three sacks of the nuggets with him
and will open the eyes of the people
he meets along the route. h spec
linens which Seotty will carry with
him will unquestionably be by far the
richest and prettiest ever taken from
the state of Nevada"
In speaking of other operations in
the district. Mr.. Matoyich said that
altogether the camp looked better
now than 1t eyer has. There are
some ten or twelve companies at
work and in every instance either
high grade or splendid milling values
are being opened up. He predicts a
big boom there during the next two
months and he adds that when il
comes it will be the biggest In the
history of the state.

Preliminary Trial of o. Il. Nelson.

The preliminary examination of O.
B. Nelson charged with the murder of
b. II. Klink, a steam shovel operator,
at Star Pointer, was held in the court
of Justice Cartwright last night at
1880. The hearing had been post
poned in order to enable Harry Nell
son, a brother of the prisoner, who
was away on a hunting trip at the
time of the murder and returned
Friday, to be present at the trial.
Nelson was bound over without bail
to await trial on the charge of muir
der.
The murder occurred In Nelson's
saloon at Star Pointer early Sunday
morning, when Klink, apparently In
a spirit of fun, reached through the
broken glass of a cigar case as II he
intended to take a cigar, and Nelson.
thinking he was stealing, fired the
fatal shot, saying a moment later:
II am here to protect this place and
intend to do IT," The wounded man
was removed to the Steptoe hospital
where he died Sunday. The body
was ltllONCu W IA Ahuth t'faHo -
lors of Nevin & Graham, from whence
they were taken, in charge of the
brother, George +. Klink, on Thurs
day morning, to Santa Rosa, Cali
fornia, where the Elks will conduct
the services for the dead.
Mr.. Klink went to Star Pointer to
gather the effects of his brother and
to get any additional facts that he
might collect concerning the shoot
ing. He stated the brother who was
slain is the third brother who has
been buried within thirteen months.
Only three weeks ago the last n
was buried.
Mr.. Klink added that when his
mother was told of the shooting of
her son at Star Pointer, she was at
the very moment reading a pleasant
letter from the lad wherein he had
stated how nicely he was getting
along and that everything was well
with him in the copper camp. There
remain four sisters and one brother
besides himself.

Wonders Of 4 Japanese Hamlet.

Perhaps the most astonishing presen-
tation Of sHamlet" ever seen on any
stage was a japanese version given by
native actors at Kobe. The Kobe Her
aid describes it as "a wonderful mix
ture Of the beautiful and the gro
tesque. With an Ophelia sometimes in
graceful kimono and sometimes in
western evening costume and a king
who at one time appears in the pic
turesque costume Of a Japanese noble
man and at others dons silk hat and
swallowtail coat the effect is SO
kaleidoscope that spectator has the
sensation of being perpetually trans
ferred from one phase of civilization
to another. The climax is reached in
Hamlet himself, who in the earlier
scenes wears the uniform of a student
of the Imperial university, in the third
;act makes his appearance on a bicycle.
clad in a bright blue cycling suit and
striped stockings, and at the finish is
seen in conventional evening dress
with a flower in his buttonhole."

Good Looking Brides Wanted.


Shortly after an angry looking couple
dounced out of the chapel the pastor
Of an uptown church presented per-
picked countenance before the busy
sexton.
AS you know said he, II am new

Perhaps there are few things 1 ought
to know. Why. for Instance, do so
many people who never attend service
in this church wish to be married
here?'

works is dwarfed by our reputation
for beautiful brides. To say that a
woman is married here is equivalent

"that that plain looking woman went
away in huff / earnestly advised
her to be married In her own parish"

Eastern Shore Packers Contracting
For Tomatoes.

Preparations for the packing season in
the counties Of the Central Eastern Shore
are being made for the season of 1910,
and the signing Of contracts by farmers
has begun. These contracts bind the
farmer to grow a specified number OF
acres of tomatoes to be. delivered at the
canning house of the packer with whom
be decides TO do business, and not to grow
tomatoes for any other person or persons,
By this means the packers are assured OF
the product of certain acreage, and
protected from market rises.
Last year So ton was paid by the
packers, but as the canned goods have
moved slowly and at low prices, the price
10 be paid this year for tomatoes has been
reduced BY many packers 10 81 ton. 1t
is reported that the Queen Anne's packers
will pay $8 q ton. and at Cambridge some
contracts are being signed al So. which is
regarded by farmers as most excellent
price.
A few years ago SIS and Sc ton was
frequently as much as the Gamers would
pay, but difficulties arose through grow
ers breaking contracts.

Proposed Legislation Affe

will affect the future of the farming com

/ The State Grange, the State Dairymcn's
Association and other similar bodies have
each brought forth some part of this pro-

A State pure seed LAW
A pure paint law.
"A proper experimenting By the State of
funds received from the National congress
for agriculture, instruction, experimenting
and extension.
Another important matter is the rewrit-
ing Of the Dairy Inspection law Of 1868,
Chapter goo, so that the State inspection
of stables and cattle will be performed by
men who can be of aid and assistance to
the farmers and that the farmers may have
accurate knowledge as to the seonditions
thar are found on the premises,
The Manufacture of this law, it is ar
gued, should be a scoring system, bv
which the conditions that are found on the
premises would be matter of record to the
State Board of Agriculture, or whichever
board administers the law, and duplicate
of this record would be found in the COW
stable that had been inspected This
would not Only prove check on the in
spectors, but would give the farmer a
basis on which to value his milk and to
compare the conditions that exist on his
own place with those of hrs neighbors.
With this clear insight as to condition the
State Board Of Agriculture could require
Improvements when necessary and could
stop The milk where bad conditions
prevail.

b. Mr.. Mitchell, in the February issue Of
Field and Stream. What this writer--a an
outsider states is said to be based on facts
and personal research in the section o.

Mr. Mitchell, in the article referred to,
says: Shooting from Launches or with
deadly big guns is forbidden; nor. shall
any set be made before S O'Clock in the
morning. On this score there is, how
ever, considerable lawbreakiug, 1 some

confferes said to the writer. .'Of course
we know who they are. But if we inform
on them our houses will be burned over

MANY PROTEST
 FEDERAL TAX
Corporations Declare it Dn- constitutional as They File Statements.

With the coming of the last .Fegu- lar day for the returns under the new Federal Corporation Tax law there has been considerable stir among the many private corporations of the state over the legal questions involved. Re ports received from the various busi- ness centers of the state indicate that large number of the corporations having profits over the 5000 exemp- ton will hand in with their returns protests against the tax. The pro- tests are intended to protect the cor poratfons in case the tax should be declared unconstitutiona1 by the United States supreme court as in the case of the old income tax.
 In general the protests are made on the alleged unconst3tutionality of the law for two leading reasons assigned: 1: First, the general unconstitutiona1fty of the statute as trespassing upon the charter, corporation powers of this state and secondly of the exposure of facts of value to rivals as being deprivation of property without due process of law as prohibited in the constitution of the United States. In some of the protests it is also asserted that the questions on the blanks have not conformed to the law itself.
