Death Of Mrs. J.. II. Caldwell.

; fter a brief illness Of pneumonia,
Mrs. Mamie Crump Caldwell, the
beloved wife Of Mr.. J. Henry Cald-
well, died at twenty minutes to eight
o'clock Sunday evening. Besides a
bereaved husband and four little
children-the eldest only seven
years old-to mourn the great loss
of devoted wife and fond mother,
she leaves a widowed mother, three
sisters and a brother to share the
burden of grief and sadness.
AS Miss Mamie Crump, only a
few short years ago, she was beau
tiful and sweet young girl, and She
grew to womanhood and motherhood
fulfilling the promise Of her youth
for life or happiness and useful
ness in the home with the endearing
qualities that are the charm and
grace Of worthy Life.
She was a devout Methodist and
her great piety was shown in her
love for her church. In the church
circle and in the large circle Of
friends and relatives she will be
greatly missed.
Mrs. Caldwell was in the city last
Wednesday. Thursday she was ta-
ken sick. This sudden afflietion is
heartrending to the young husband -
this dark shadow against the hap
piness that was his-but he has the
consolation Of knowing that the spir-
it of his companion was ready for
the journey to the better country. To
him and the little children, and other
relatives, we extend heartfelt SYM
pathy in their bitter hour of distress.
The burial was held, at Rosernont
cemetery yesterday afternoon at four
o'clock, the service conducted by Rev.
NJ. L. Banks.

''He came to Belleville an entire
stranger, bringing with him creden-

believes in working where he can do
the most. good, regardless Of money
considerations, he feels that Belle

LOWER RATES To
60 INTO EFFECT
INTERSTATE COMMERCE. CONIs-
SION SAYS RAILROADS MUST
COMPLY WITH ORDER MADE
SEVERAL MONTHS AGO.

The Interstate Commerce ComIs-
sion Saturday decided that the rail-
roads must put into effect on Deem
Der / the lower class rates to Nevada
points. in accordance with the order
made several months ago. The rail-
roads secured two postponements oil
the date on which the lower rates
We're 10 become effective and have
been fighting for further delay. The
latest hearing in Washington was at
tended by the members of the Ne
yada Railroad Commission. Messrs.
Bartine, Shaughnessy and Thnrteil,
who presented the case of this state
in such an able and convincing man
ner hal the national commission de-
cided against the railroads and the
California jobbers and the lower
class rates must go into effect on De-
eember I.
Though presistently referred to in
the newspapers as the Reno rate
case, the lower rates which are to
become effective in a few weeks ar
feet the entire state of Nevada. BY
the decision the state is divided into
an eastern and western zone, Win
nemueea being named as the termin-
al rate point for zone and Reno
for the other. A reduction in class
rates from both eastern and western
points is made. the reduction rang
ing from 10 TO 80 per cent. The rates
from eastern points 10 Winnemucca

will not be shut out of the eastern
markets as they have been and

Quick Wealth.

An inordinate desire 10 aquire great
wealth. without effort, and at little
cost. has been the source of more
downfalls in human life than almosl
any cause which may be named. We
see it in the trusted employee who
"~borrows' from the cash drawer. IL
is evident in the one who is blindly
specializing in stocks. IL may be
found in every walk of life. y
To the individuals of this class IL
is that the ''get-rich-quick' organiza-
lions make their appeal. C%upidity Is
depended upon to blind the indi-
yidul to a sense of his danger. With
in the past quarter century millions
of dollars have been reaped by those
who are willing to take advantage of
this human failing. Mining must bear
for only a small part OF this loss.
Manufacturing, pooling schemes.
even open gambling have helped 10
swell the total.
Much Of the literature put out and
the representations made have been
so cunningly devised. so carefully
worded. that in the past it has been
almost impossible to secure conyic-
tions. But a few convictions and
public discussion Of the schemes have
wrought changes. A wider knowl-
edge of the dangers involved, pub
licity given TO the details of the plans
followed In securing easy money
have brought a regard for
wealth.
Publicity is a great agent In this
reform. A wholesome fear of pub
licity has brought greater safeguards
10 the unsophisticated public than
any law ever devised.-Mining

what has been said by mining ex-

TO THIS END ARE FAVORABLE

G. +. Wodman acting president oil
the Woodman Mining company of the
Clifton district in the Deep Creea
country, speaking of mining con-
ditions in that yet comparatively re-
mote country. said:
There is some mining activity In
Deep Creek. notably in the Clifton
district in the region of Dutch Noun
tain. We are driving a tunnel. nov
in 400 feet, and will tap the ore bear
ing ledge shortly at a YER
teal depth of about 400 feet. The
ore carries heavy values i'm gold and
copper, rich enough TO ship az a
profit.
''The Queen of Sheba company is
developing its property, with every
assurance that the mine will opel,
into a great gold producer. Other
mines in processes of development
are making good, and profitable ship
ments to this market are being made.
Let me tell you we have been
hoping for a railroad for many
years" said Mr.. Woodman. 4 think
that but for the Meadow Valley wash
disasters we would have had a rail
road from Tintic Junction through
Deep Creek to Ely. Nevada. If not
completed, al least in process of con-
struetion before now. The road
would have been known as a branch
OF the Clark road and built by the
company OF which he is the financial
head.
In the event that this project
should fall throughput / don't be-

out great expense, as the country is
nearly all level as a floor.
Il I'm inclined to believe that il is
only a question Of a short time when.
instead OF one railroad, We shall have .
two lines running to and through our
country-the greatest and, in nv
opinion, richest mining region in this

Life on a cattle ranch now is mucL
the same as that on a big eastern
farm.
The cowgirl of today is ans much
interested in Partisan fashions and
social affairs as any woman in the
east. and when one of these women
travels eastward she is generally ac-
companied by several trunks, packed
brimful of up-to-the-minute gowns
and lingerie.
Oftentimes the wives and sisters
OF the men who have charge of the
big cattle ranches take part in the
breaking of wild horses, which takes
place every spring, not because they
are expected 10, but because they en-
JOY the lark.
Nearly every young woman born
on a western cattle ranch is able to
do finished work al a "broncho bus
ter" If she cares to, but she is becom-
ing less and less fond of the job
every year. Now the .Droncho bus
ter is a specialist who travels from
one ranch to another and breaks in
the green animals as they are needed.
Before long We will have to be con-
with descriptions oil the cowgirl
as given by the travelling exhibitions
that depict early western life and
customs. Like the cowboy and the In
dian. she is fading into the past.
