Invents Painless Surgery.

Professor D'Arsonvol, a Paris
surgeon, has substitute for am
putation which may revolutionize
forms of operation in the surgical
world. He promises literally pain
less surgery.
Neither knife, saw nor any
other .cutting instrument, is to be
used. The hand, the arm, the
foot or the leg is simply to fall off
as if by magic, with the wound en-
tirely healed and cicatrized. The
effect is to be produced by means
of electric currents of high fire.
quency.
Professor D'Arsonval explains
that he has been able to send cur
rents of high frequency through
dumb animals and to raise the
temperature of their bodies to a
very high degree without any APP
parent effect on their sensibility
or the contractibility of their
muscles. The animals seemed to
feel nothing whatever.
In some cases, he says, the cal
orific effect was such that certain
members were literally cooked and
strange to say, the animal did not
betray the least feeling of pain.
When the members fell away after
some days the stumps were per-
fectly cicatrized. The method is
yet 20 be tried on human beings.

Nathan Schapiro is driving two tun-
nels to develop his group of six claims
which lies west of the ROLES Simmons
ground a distance of 5000 feet. He has
taken out free gold bearing ore from
the western parallel ledge.
The district is traversed by three
parallel gold bearing lodges and all the
properties mentioned are close together,
covering these groupings.
+. f. Smith and II. C. Biggs have
done considerable work on q silver-lead
group in the same vicinity. Lately they
let a contract to drive a 250-foot tun-

FIRST REAL RAILROAD IN
OWENS RIVER VALLEY

The first long, loud whistle of d
real railroad train was heard in Owens
Valley last Sunday. 1t signalled the
completion of the broad gauge road
from Los Angeles into the valley; it
also signalled the inevitable passing of
.Inyo's sagebrush era and the dawn of
modern development. =
The road from the south is com
pleted as far as blanche, the first sta
ton properly located within Owens
valley, and there remains now only the
last lap of this project to be finished
before rail shall meet rail-the joining
of the standard gauge with the narrow
ribbons of rust that have done service
as a railroad between Keller and Nina
al Owenyo. This last lap of the road
will be completed this summer.
Regular train schedule has been es-
tablished as far as blanche. South
bound passenger train leaves every
morning at 6 O'Clock. In the after
noon the train from Mojave arrives.
Autos then carry passengers to Owenyo,
Lone Pine or Independence, where ever
they wish to go.

DECISION ON DESERT
Land ENTRIES IS
HANDED down

The general land Office at Washington
has lust handed down a deeision WIN
regard to desert land entries when VIII
nrove of interest in this state, as wen
as in other parts of the "arld West.
The case which evoked the decision was
one which went up to Washington from
the Billings, Mont, Office, in which the
filing of one Virginia E. George was
contested by one Eugene j. Auge. The
decision made, defining what is desert
entry, is an apparent contradiction Oh
the claims of the dry farmers and con
s~equently is regarded as being the most
important of recent years so far as the
arid West is concerned.
Mrs. George located a half section
of land under the desert act of March
4, 1905, and at once took steps for Its
reclamation by irrigation. The land
was planted under the expectation that
water would be available in time for
irrigation. but owing to the failure of
the ditch constructors to finish the work,
water was not placed on the land. How
ever, a fair crop was realized, and Auge,
seeing this, contested the desert land
claim upon the ground that agricultural
crops could not be raised without arti-
fetal irrigation.
In the decision it was held that the
proposition of raising remunerative
crops without irrigation in the west
had not been sufficiently established to
warrant the changing of the character
of the land, while, on the contrary, the
government reclamation projects and
the expenditure of large sums for lrri-
CATION enterprises demonstrated the
fact that the lands were considered
desert. By the finding the contest IS
dismissed and the claim of Mrs. George
is affirmed, subject to possible appeal
to the secretary of the interior.

From 1906 to 1910 is longer than Taft
has been president, and its a long
struggle, when during such a time, two
men devote their entire energy to the
making of a mining camp. But that
is the time put in by George Gooding
and F. +. Smith in proving up the gold
possibilities of the Clear Creek mining
district, near the famous Ophir canyon,
in the Toiyabe range south from Aus
tin, says the Reese River Reveille.
They got the cash, s17 900, last Sat
urday for one group of claims. They
own several other good properties in
the immediate vicinity and have two
or three other deals on, with men who
have the money to go after the ore.
They are reaping the reward that in
nearly every case comes to the nan
who will mine intelligently and stay
with his proposition with the same de-
gree of faith that must be put into any
other line of business to make it a sue
cess.
The sale included nine claims, known
as the Rowdy group. The purchaser
was the King Midas Mining company.
Col. s. r. Pearson and Willard f. Hales
are the active spirits in the company
and have associated with them men
with capital in both Chicago and in
Boston. BY the middle of May these
gentlemen will be ON the ground pre-
pared to go ahead with mining on a
permanent basis.
The King Midas people have been
working the property under bond far
about a year and under the terms of
the bond had a year yet in which 10
meet the payments, but being satisfied
with their bargain and anxious to see
the deeds, they handed over the cash
and are now perfecting their plans to
makes mine.
This district was the scene of a big
rush from Manhattan in the winter of
1906. The whole country was located,
many stampeders coming from Gold
field. In very few eases did the loca-
tors do any work, leaving the district

FORTS IN CANAL ZONE
OPPOSED AS UNW|SE
Mr.. Livingston Of Georgia Con.
: tends That the Waterway
Should Be NeutraIized.

Il am unalterably opposed to the forth
fication Of the Panama canal" said Rep
resentativc LeOnidaS T. Livingston OF
Georgia, senior member of the House ap-
propriations committee, to Star reporter
today.
'Why should we put chip on our
shoulder and then dare some other ma
ton to knock it Off? Why should we go
out of our way to announce, in q beliger-
ent and aggressive manner, that the canal
is ours and that no other nation shall use
1t without our permission?
1.-The solution Of the problem, which is
of the gravest moment. lies in the neu-
tralization of the waterway.
AN opponent Of this policy offers as an
argument in support of his views that no
nation with which We might become en-
or agreement. think this is a very vio-
lent and unwarranted assumption.
Great Expense Involved.
SHOULD we decide to fortify the canal
our expenditures for that purpose would
be something enormous. We will not only
be obliged to fortify both the Atlantic
and Pacific terminals of the canal, but
it's entire length on both sides as well.
This will cost billions-I speak advisedly
and will make it absolutely necessary
for us to keep an army Of men on the
isthmus all the time.
And after we had spent fabulous sums
in Notifications. there would be the pos
sibility-even the certainty, considering
the rapid development of aerial naviga-
tfon-that the canal would be at the
mercy Of attack from above, rendering
useless the vast sums spent in protecting
the canal from attack by sea and land.
I'VE must not forget, either, in dis
cussing this subject, that our financial
condition Is none too good at the present
time; that a great part of our stocks,
bonds and securities of all kinds are held
abroad, and that an attitude on our part
which might be interpreted as willfully
antagonistic by the great governments
Of the world could not help but do us

CORRUPTION FUND DENIED
WILLING TO GIVE TESTIMONY
Says Harry Payne Whitney Went to
England on Affair More Important
Than Silly Investigation.

NEW YORK. November 3O.-August
Belmont chairman Of the Jockey Club,
took the stand in the session of legislative
graft inquiry yesterday afternoon and
positively denied there was any money
raised to defeat the Agnew-Hart bills by
improper means.
He offered to throw open the books OF
the Jockey Club to the committee and ex-
plain every transaction set forth.
Mr.. Belmont denounced the method of
conducting the inquiry In respect to the
alleged attempt to bribe legislators. He
said the procedure of impugning false mo-
tiyes to reputable citizens upon the I'M
supported testimony Of irresponsible per-
SONS AZ to a mythical corruption fund of
$500. 600 and conspiracy dinners that never
took place was not only absurd, but
amounted to persecution.
Defends Harry Payne Whitney.
Mr.. Belmont declared that he had been
placed In the light of seeming to avoid
giving evidence before the committee.
when. as a matter Of fact. he was ready
and willing to appear at any time. He
chara cterized as unfair the aspersions
that have been cast OH Harry Payne
Whitney. who went to England to attend
the international polo match-a matter OF
great Importance to him.
Mr.. Belmont declared that none of the
acine associations and no Individual had
been assessed to supply fund to be
used for improper purposes at Albany.
He said that every penny spent In hghung
the Hart bills was expended legl-
timateiy and that neither he nor his asso-
ciates had any thought OF improper &C
tons.
"It appears here that So 700 was levied
upon the Coney Island Jockey Club for
future legal expenses. BY what authority
was that done?" asked Mr.. Bruce IN OPEN
ing the examination.
try' said Mr. Belmont AT times there
have been informal conferences when the
