IN The MONEY

Death Valley Scotty' is to the
good again and will attend the big
fight at Reno ON July 4. He is
now full fledged resident of Hum
boldt county and his mine in the
Humboldt range is putting him on
his feet again and from present
indications he will soon be his
old self and the king of money
spenders.
"Scotty'' came down from his
property in the mountains the
other day and made a flying visit
to the town of INLAY, and while
there showed the boys how to do
the town right. While "Scotty"
was doing business with real money
and flashed big roll Of green
backs he was there with the yel-
low metal too. Not the kind that
is stamped with the eagle. but
the clean pure stuff that mother
earth gives up to her favored few.
Shortly before taking the train
for the west "Scotty" said to the
boys, II am going to the big fight
all right" At that he pulled a
large bottle of gold nuggets from
his pocket just to show the boys
that he was there with the ma
yuma.
"Scotty" has been working on
