MR.. S. A. HIGHFIELD

The friends of Mr.. S. A. High
field of Carlin were shocked this
forenoon to learn of his death. At
10 o'clock last night, he suffered a
stroke of apoplexy and this morning
at 7:30 o'clock he passed into the
great beyond.
Mr.. Highfeld was born in Eng
land forty-one years ago. He came
to the United States in 1876 and
settled in Carlin. In May, 1902,
he married Miss Lou Lane of Elko.
A little boy came to bless the union
and gladden. their home.
For many years Mr.. Highfield
was trusted employee Of the
Southern Pacific Railroad COM
pany. Yesterday he ran stationary
engine and seemed to be in his
usual health. About 10 o'clock
last night he complained of his
head hurting him and soon lapsed
into Inconsistencies. DR.. Hood
was summoned, but when he reach
ed his bedside, Mr.. Highfeld was
beyond human help.
Mr.. Highfield was one of Carlin's
most highly respected citizens.
Nearly his whole life was spent
there. He was an honorable, up
right man, faithful employee and
one of Elko county's best citizen.
Today the home he loved so we'll
is desolate. A young wife mourns
beside the bier of her loved one.
To her, the world looks dark and
drear. Loving friends offer
sympathy and consolation, but they
fail to drive away the gloom or
heal the broken heart. God alone
can do that. To Him we COM
mend the grief-stricken wife.
Besides a widow and young son,
the deceased leaves a brother,
Harry, living at Carlin and sister
residing in Scranton, Pennsyl-
vania. To all of them the Indepen-
dent extends its sincerest
sympathy.

MISS WINFIELD H. COTANT

Just before O'clock this morn.
ing one of Elko's fairest and best
young women, Miss Winifred Hester
Cotant, closed her eyes in eternal
sleep.
Miss Cotant was born at Fort
Halleck on the 18th of July 1898.
Nearly her whole life was spent in
Starr valley and Elko. For short
time she attended business col
lege in Ogden and graduated in
seven months, when the regular
time of the course is nine months.
Returning to Elko she accepted a
position in Hesson & Co.'S store.
Last October she had an attack of
appendicitis and since then she had
four other attacks.
Monday morning she went to her
work as usual and seemed to be in
good health. Monday afternoon
between 4 and 5 o'clock she was
taken to Redwood hospital and
Tuesday afternoon she was ope-
rated upon for appendicitis. She re-
covered from the shock of the ope-
ration and seemed to be getting
along nicely until Friday after
noon. When she became worse
and gradually sank until death
relieved her suffering at 3:45 this
morning.
Miss Cotant was bright Iowa
BILE young woman She wasssjustly
popular with all who knew her.
Today a host of relatives and
friends mourn her untimely death.
She has gone from us never to re-
turn, but her memory will remain
forever.
A father, mother, two sisters,
three brothers and aged grand
parents survive her. They have
the sympathy of the entire COM
munity in their great sorrow.
May God comfort and console
them.
Miss Cotant was a member of
the Presbyterian church at Odgen.
Tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock
amid the scene of her childhood in
Starr valley, Rev. S C. Gilman of
the Elko Presbyterian church will
conduct the funeral services. She
will sleep beneath the soil of the
valley she loved so well. May that
sleep be as peaceful as her life was
gentle and pure.

HALF TON OF ORE IS
VALUED At $4,000

What is without doubt the rich
est Skip" of ore ever hoisted from
any mine in the state Of Nevada
was brought to the surface from
the Stall Bros lease at National
Monday evening This paper has
often mentioned the fabulous rich
ness of the ore of the great camp
of National, but never before in
the history of this wonderful camp
has such quantity of extremely
rich gold ore been brought to the
surface at one time as that which
came from the famous lease on the
ground of the National Mining Co.
of Nevada.

tunnel, given depth of about 300
feet from the surface. 1t was at
this staff in the famous lease
that the Stahl Brothers disclose
what is considered the largest body
of bonanza gold ore yet found in
the west. Monday this glory, hole
was finally cleared of debris and
the work of extracting the fabu-
lousy rich ore was commenced.
Monday evening the first Skip"
load of ore was sent to the surface
and although the car contained
only about 1000 pounds, it is
estimated that the contents were
worth at least $35, 900.
Shortly after the treasure-laden
car was landed on the surface Its
glittering contents were dumped
on the floor of the ore-house where
a large number of people were
given the privilege of viewing the
glittering mass of what looked like
most solid gold. The ore was in
pieces from the. size of a marble to
chunks larger than a mans head.
Many of the pieces showed more
gold than rock.-Humbodt Star.
