This Law Passed In 1905.

making this remarkable prediction:
"Concrete, cheap and beautiful will
be the building material in 1919 Every
thing will be of concrete then. Ten
years from now all the sky-scraping
buildings will be of concrete, and they
will be fireproof. Clevelanders will
come down town part of the way over
concrete streets, and parts Of the way
in clean concrete subway. They will
walk on concrete streets and sidewalks
to their offices, which will be of con-
crete. Their homes will be of concrete.
Both office and house rent will be less
by reason of the smaller original invest
ment and the reduced cost of up-keer.
There will be practically no insurance
to pay; houses viii last forever.
"If Cleveland were rebuilt today
with concrete, $53,000,000 would be
saved the people. On municipal build
ings, sewers, paving, sidewalks and
bridges, the saving, if they were built
of concrete, would be about S6, 500, 600,
and figuring from the tax duplicate
for this year that S23l, 100000 repre-
sents buildings, the savings would be
about one-fifth of that, or about $46,-

time to have escaped general attention,
says the Tennessean. This sadly leg
lected statute was passed by the gen
eral assembly of 1905. 1t makes it g
misdemeanor to buy liquor 'for an
othern in any prohibition territory, in
Tennessee, the famous four-mile terri
tory being the part OF the stale in
which the act is applicable.
The law in question is chapter 422 OF

any person withia four miles of any
school house, public and private, in
Tennessee, where school is kept,
Mhether the school be then in session

imprisonment for a period of not less
than thirty days nor NOR than six

Passing Of Old Land Mark
Which Ground Ont Millions
From Ores OF the COmStOCl

BY the passing of the Brunswick
mill into the hands of the new
smelter people the last relic of the
bonanza days of the Comstock
comes to close. The Brunswick
mill is 70-stamp affair of the old
pan amalgamation variety. Bob
Logan, who acted as superinten-
dent for the last run ON the river,
will have the distinction of having
made the final cleanup of ores
from the Comstock. At the final
run it was found that the game
was losing one and since that
time the big mill has been shut
down. Alongside of the mill is the
last string of ore cars used in the
transportation of the rich rock
from the mines of Virginia. These
ore cars are practically junk and it
is doubtful if they will ever turn
another wheel.
The Brunswick mill was one of
many that turned it's tailings loose
in Carson river. 1t is safe to say
that million dollars worth of tall
ings has been sent through the dis
charge into the river where it is
lost forever.
Many of the mills along the Car
son put in failing ponds and since
cyanide became practical many for
tunes have been taken from the
refuse. In the case of the Bruins
wick it is a straight loss.
Some years ago dredging ma
chine was placed on the river be-
low Dayton in the hope of recov-
ering portion of the fortunes in
quicksilver and amalgam which had
been sent from the string of mills
on the river above Dayton. The
dredger failed to pick up the VAL
ues mainly from the fact that the
river was too rough and the many
crevasses formed in the river bot
tom held the values away from the
point where the dredger could oper-
ate. There is no question as to the
vast amount of values that are
lodged in the Carson river but no
one has been able to gather it up
at profit.
People forget the vast amount of
milling that was done along the
Carson river. At one time there
were nearly 500 stamps dropping
and in most cases the tailings were
being deposited in the river. It

new RAILROADS
FOR NEVADA

1t is interesting to note that the
project of building a railroad from
Goldfield to Ely, Nevada, is still
alive, and that those who have the
project in hand still hope to put
the deal through. For nearly a
year they have been engaged in the
gathering of data relative to, ore
tonnages at Hamilton, Typo, Rev
ellie and other camps along the line
of the proposed road, and the work
has now been completed and the
data is in the hands of those in
terested in financing the project.
When the enterprise was first
preached couple of years ago, Ely
put damper on it by refusing to
grant a franchise to the road
through the city, but this opposi-
ton has been overcome and the city
is now not only willing to grant a
right of way, but the citizens are
willing to help matters along by
liberal subscriptions.
The building of the road is a
matter of vital interest to the min
ing districts through which it will
pass, and it is to be hoped that
every assistance will be given it
and the hopes of the projectors be-
come reality.
A connecting road from Ely
through the Deep Creek country to
Salt Lake City would no doubt be
built if the Ely-Goldfield project
goes through. This will have the
effect of converting the roads into
part of trans-continental sys-
TEN, with far-reaching effects on
the Nevada transportation situation.
Such road would afford an outlet
for the ores of Ely to either Salt
Lake or Needles Cal. Then a 16-
mile road from Eureka to connect
with the main line would afford an
outlet for the large tonnage of fiux-
ing ore that has been developed in
the Raymond Eureka mine by the
United States Smelling company.
Nevada needs railroads more than
anything else In order to develop
her mineral resources. Let us wish
that she will have many OF them

REFUSED TO :
GRANT A DECREE
OF DIVORCE
JUDGE SOMERS DENIES PET.
TION OF ROBERT MCCOY FOR
LACK OF EVIDENCE

Judge P. J. Somers at Goldfield
yesterday refused to grant a de-
cree of divorce to Robert Mccoy,
from his wife, Ella, and as a con-
sequence several months will elapse
before another action can be taken.
Judge Somers. realizing the lax
ity of Nevada divorce laws, has
adopted the rule of requiring tes-
timony or affidavits from second
person in substantiation OF the
main statements of the plaintiff.
Mccoy was unable to produce wit
nesses as to his residence in the
state. and after considering the evil
dence Judge Somers decided not to
grant the decree.
The grounds on which the divorce
was asked was extreme cruelty and
threats made by the defendant
against the life of the plaintiff.

LOSES MARCEL WAVE
FOR REFUSAL TO DANCE

Because she refused to dance
with William Whitney, husky
carpenter at Sacramento, Cal, who
asked her if he might place her
name on his dance program at Tur-
ner hall last night, Miss Suzette
Petrie lost her switch and back
hair. Whitney was arrested by Pa
trolman Koening and charged with
battery, being released on bail fur
nished by Alexander Mcdonald and
E. G. Clarke.
Whitney, who is married and
weighs $50 pounds, wandered into
the dance and espying Miss Petrie
asked her for dance. She re-
fused and he seized her by the hair,
which fortunately came off or the
young woman might have been
dragged about the hall by the burly
wielder of the saw and hammer.
Miss Petrie was full of fight, at
suShihS w hlIACy Will doOl anu
belaboring him over the face and
head, gashing his right ear and
bringing blood from several welts
on his neck.
Bystanders interfered in the un-
equal battle, as Whitney was using
the woman roughly and call was
sent for the police, Patrolman Koen-
ing responing. Koening had to bat
tie with Whitney in order to make
him give up the, woman's switch
and marcel waves that he had put
in his pocket. At the Jail Whitney
threatened to have the woman ar
rested for beating him. He claimed
that he has known Miss Petrie for
long time, and she had no right
to treat him in such an unclublike
manner.

through the pass dividing Mason

tional miles into Smith valley
should be completed by November,
which will leave only seven miles
