WHERE IS SHERIFF OWENS

Jack Owens, sheriff of Nye county,
and recently married to Reno
girl, has been missing for several
days. The last seen of Sheriff
Owens is when he boarded a north
bound train from Tonopah several
das ago. Under sheriff Vail Pitt
man has no idea where the sheriff is
and is cosidrably worried. 1t is
understood that Owens had about
$4,000 in gold on his person just
before his disappearance, as he had
sold some mining stock. The Tono-
pah Sun says: whether Sheriff
Owens has met with foul play,
whether his away on some masteri-
Gus private or public business, or
whether he has dcliberatcl deserted
the county, II is time some word
was heard from him in the near
future.
"Thcrc,is no suspicion Of any
thing being wrong with his ac-
counts with the count. Every
thing at the shcriir's office is said
to beas straight as a string"

IRELAND HAS ONLY
-FOUR MILLION PEOPLE

ireland boastcd a population of
nearly 100000 in lS47. Today it
is little more than 4,25O, 900, says
Seumas MacManus in Travel Maga-
zine, and nearly $4,000 of the finest.
strongest and ablest young people
of the country, the flower of the
{ land, are annually emigrating,
nearly % per cent of them going to
the United States, where went at
least 80 per cent of the total emf
grafton from Ireland in the last
century, and where today people
with a large percentage of Irish
blood number not less than 10000
600. At the natural rate :of in
crease, lreand should have today.
instead of 1850, 900 inhabitants, at
east three times that number.
With $4,000 square miles of land,
the greater portion of it exception
ally favorable for the raising of
grains, roots, fruits and cattle;
with magnificent water power a
water equaled by few countries
and with its well known, if un-
developed, great mineral resources
Ireland is capable of supporting in
comfort and plenty 20,O0O.O00
people.
Emigration has been a blessing
as well as a curse to Ireland.
While for 90 or 20 years it has gone
on dcpriving Ireland of all that was
healthiest and brainiest and best in
the country, thus enervating the
race at home, the Irish Nation is
not at the same time unmindful of
the fact that the millions Of Amcri-
can money poured home to Ireland
in steady stream has helped, through
the trying decades that have gone
by, to keep alive an Ireland-at-
home. In at least 20 of the 80
counties of ireland it is rare to find
a family that has not a repre-
sentative in America. Some of
them have four or five. In all the
poorer mountainous counties that
border on the rugged western coast
there is hardly a comfortable new
house erected that has not been
erected by American money.

S3.5O Recipe Cures Weak Men---Free
Send Name and Address To. day-You Gan Have It Free and Be Strong and
 Vigorous

ton for nervous debility. lack of wig or, weakened manhood, failing mem ory and lame back. brought on by ex- cesses, unnatural drains, or the folIics of youth, that has cured so many worn and nervous men right in their. own homes-without any additional help or medicine-thaI I think every man who wishes to regain his manly power and virility, quickly and quiet ", should have a copy. So I have determined to send a copy of the pre- scription free of charge, in plain, ordinary sealed envelope to any man who will write me for it.
 This prescription comes from a pIly- s.cian who has made a special study of men and I am convinced it is the surest-acting combination for the cure of deficient manhood and vigor fail ure ever put together.
 I think I owe it to my fellow man to send them copy in confidence so that any man anywhere who is weak and discouraged with repeated failures may stop drugging himself with harm fuI patent medicines, secure what believe is the understanding restora- tive, upbuilding, SPOT-TOUCHING remedy ever devised, and so cure him self at home quietly and quickly. Just drop mea line like this: Dr. A. B. Robinson, 4125 Luck Building, Detroit, Mich, and I will send you a copy of this splendid recipe in a plain ordin- ary envelope free, of charge. A great many doctors would charge $500 50 $500 for merely writing out lxnG~ scription like this-but send it 4tl- trely free.

other banks of issue2-A- Yes. 1 Upon the measure which is relied upon so largely by the European banks to protect the gold stock of the country, the question. 'tWhat steps were taken at the time of the panic of 1907?' led to the following discus sion:
 e. You must have taken some steps to add to your gold at that time. What steps did you take?-A We in creased the rate of discount. We con slider that this measure is the only ef- fective one.
 o. How high was the rate at that time?-A. Seven and one-half per cent.
 Q. If this increase had not been sufficient, you would have further in creased the rate?-A. Yes
 o. Do you also loan money without interest to people who are importing gold? "A. Yes: that is done. We make advances without interest to i'm porters for the time the gold is in transit. We do that even in times when the ordinary gold import point is not reached.
 Q. Are there any other steps taken to increase the import t2-A Well. be- sides granting loans without interest on gold imports. we may raise at such times our tariff for the purchase of foreign gold coins, as the Bank of England does.
 O. Pay a higher price?-A. Yes: but this is not important. The real remedy is to raise the rate of discount, besides selling a certain amount of foreign bills.

THAT LYON FORTUNE Claimants Receive Invita- tions to Buy Three Volume

South Norwalk sentinel.)

is (SOuCh NOrWaik SSnI1nGl.)
 big, broad smile has been caused by the receipt in this city of circu- lar letter signed by Fred w.. Lyon editor and proprietor of the Green wich News If Editor Lyon isn't family. many people will get the inn pression from the letter that he is. There is certainly tempting invita- ton to invest in three volumes about the Lyon family.
 Several weeks ago there appeared in the New York World a despatch dated from Greenwich, telling about Editor Lyon receiving information that the Lyons in America were heirs to a $3,009.900 fortune in England, which had been left by a Lyon who America have evidently responded in great shape to the announcement. It became known that there were heirs in South Norwalk and Da.rien. as well as many other places.
 This is the letter MT. Lyons sends out to inGuirers:

 ssIt is true that have been informed that there is money in England wait ing the Lyon family and that reun- ion would be a proper method of get ting the family together and talking over the matter. I have not satisfied myself at this writing that there is any money in England waiting the Lyon family. but have been convinc- ed that if such was the case. there are hundreds who would be willing to spend time and money in an attempt to get it.
 T am very glad to know there are so many of the Lyons scattered through out this United States and that they all apparently are enjoying good health and are hopeful, even though all do not possess a large share in this worlds goods. can but recommend those who are interested in the Lyon family to write ito pr.

Winsted Bottled Toe
 Preserved As Eric azBrac

Winsted, April 9.-There are orna- ments and ornaments, but Mrs. Fanny B. West, of Robertsvi11e, probably is the first woman to describe one of the big toes of her husband, pre- served in alcohol and valued at $7. as bric-a-brac.
