NEVADA OIL PROSPECT
NOW LOOKS FAVORABLE

GOLDFIELD, June 12.-J. It. Min
chen, manager of the Nevada Bay
State Oil company, has returned from
a visit to the well. He says that
things look more favorable than ever
before for recovering the tools and
small tube that have been stuck at
the bottom of the we'll for several
weeks. On Tuesday the drillers were
able to pull the pipe up eleven feet
with a friction clutch, but this slipped
off and the pipe and tools dropped
back again.
They seem to be pretty loose, how
ever, and after the long spear has
been worked another day or two.
roaming the hole. double hitch will
be taken on the pipe and another eff
fort made to haul them up. The suc-
ton of the sand and water is very
heavy, and the engine was showing
about a 50-ton pull when the friction
clutch slipped Tuesday. Bailings from
the we'll continue to show strong
pregnation of oil.

SEARCHLIGHT LEASE
INCREASES OUTPUT
Prospects Indicate Hoine viii Be
Big Producer-Ground Only
Scratched as Yet

sEARCHLIGHT, June 12.-one of
the most pronounced successes the dis
trict has ever known is being scored
at the Hoine lease on the Chief OF
the Hills mine. For the tonnage ham
died the results have been excellent
and indications are that from now on
the production will be materially in
creased The ground itself has been
little more than scratched-the deep
est workings will not average more
than eighty feet-and when more fuliy
developed there is every reason 10 eX-
pect that a mine of the first magnitude
will result
The lease is owned by Messrs Hoine,
Weeks, Ray and Nihill, the ground by
the Quartette Mining company. 1t is
located on Fourth of July mountain
about fve miles due east OF town. Zen
men in all are now employed.
For the month of May the leasers
milled 113 tons at the Cyrus Noble, Tor
which they received from the Selby
smelter of San Francisco the sum or
S471S46. SeVenty-five tons were milled
during April, from which $21O0 was
cleaned up. To date total of 302 tons
have been run, the whole averaging up
very close to $40 a ton. 1t is estimated
that the tailings, which have been
carefully saved, will run $40 to the ton.
All this ore has come from above the
so-ealled lower tunnel, having an av-
erage depth of around eighty feet, but
a hoist has now been installed and
sinking has been undertaken The pay
ore for the most part continues small,
but there have been times when the
face would show fully six feet with but
little waste. There Is three months
milling in sight at the present time.
The Cyrus Noble mill Is unable to
handle more than from three to five
tons during the one shift worked
WILL SPEND 100000
one hundred thousand dollars is the
sum which President w. w. Hurt says
Is to be expended on the properties Of
the New York -Searehlight OF this
large amount $4,000 will be used for
equipment and 100000 for development
purposes.
While in San Francisco last week. in
company with Com. ]. M. Foote, the
Union Iron works of that city was com
missioned to prepare plans and speci-
fications for a 20-stamp mill, and while
in Los Angeles an order was placed for
a doube-opposed engine of $50 horse
power.
The Quartette Mining company has
been dropping thirty-1ve stamps stead
lily since June 1. During May thirty
stamps were employed and a large
tonnage was handled The late work
in the Drake shaft has developed more
water, so that the company by exer-
cising care has sufficient for the forty
stamps and the full quota of stamps
would be at work except for lack
of power one engine having defec-
tive cylinder which is inclined to over
heat when heavily loaded.

SAYS CENTENARIANS ARE
UNCONSCIOUSLY FAKERS
Many Persons Not So Old as They
Think Says StatiStician

WASHINGTON, June 12.-Methuse-
lah's oath as to his age would not be
accepted by present officials of the
United States census bureau. AFTER
investigating some recently reported
cases OF longevity DR.. Cressy l.. VIII
bur, chief statistician of the division
of vital statistics, reports that "it is
undoubtedly true that the age of 100
years is occasionally attained, but that
it is perhaps doubtful whether the asc
of 110 has ever been reached or e.
ceeded."
1t is not at all surprising, the report
points out, that many unfounded
claims to extreme age arise, for ''it is
we'll known that many of the state
ments of exact age, even in the middle
period of life and in youth, are not
strictly correct. In old age, with inn
paired memory" it continues. with
possible unintentional confusion of
what has been heard and what has
been actually experienced by the 1ndi-
vidual after the death of cotempora-
ries whose testimony might contradict
claims to excessive longevity and with
the we'll known tendency of many aged
persons to exaggerate, in the utmost
good faith, the number of years they
have lived these claims are not sur
prising."
Careful investigation in regard to
the age of Noah Raby, known as tne
oldest man in the country" and who
was said to have lived 131 years and IL
months, the census bureau othclalS
came to the conclusion that Raby was
probably go years and IL month old
when he died or thirty-nine years less
than was claimed.
Raby's record was looked up in as
great detail as possible, a report in
the New York Medical Record OF
March 5, 1904, that "he entered the
United States navy as soon as the
United States had navy ana a1ter
serving for number of years was
honorably discharged in 1909" being
shaken by a report from the navy de-
partment, which says that a Noah
Raby was on the rolls of the Constitu-
tion in 1889, so it is possible that the
report of his discharge from the navy
in 1909 is pure legend"

PROHIBITION


when Mr.. Woolley cabled that he
had acquiesced In the demand OF
Delegate Kuhio that the question OF
prohibition should DO submitted to
the citizens of the Territory, and
when w. X. Castle of'the Anti-Saloon
League and the Civic Federation de-
clared that the plebescite was Just
what was wanted, everybody seemed
satisfied and II was assumed that
for once 1t would be possible to have
a straight question put in straight
terms TO the citizens of Hawaii for
a final decision.
Hardly are the wires cool from
the transmission of the government
by-popular-voice cables than the ad-
vocates of prohibition by Federal
enactment throw new feature into
the field and proceed to befog and
complicate the Issue. =,
The petition that women be al
lowed to vote on the prohibition
question comes from the advocates
OF prohibition. IL originates with
them and receives their hearty sup
port.s ..
The result is that instead OF one
clear-cut, STRAIGHTFORWARD issue on
the liquor question, we now have
two problems to face, namely, prohi.
bitioh and woman's suffrage.
Just why the women of this Ter.
ritory should be given the privilege

other' public question has not vel
developed, although 1t is to be pre-

womans suffrage will have some
thing to offer; and IL anyone pre-
sumes TO disagree with them, tn,
