THE BEST MAN.
Al One Time He Was More Useful
Than Ornamental.


Do you know how "the best man."
who plays so important a part in mar
riages that have any pretense to be
fashionable, once upon time in Swe-
den occupied position that was use
ful as well as ornamental?
In olden days the Swedish BRIDE
groom found it desirable, In fact, to
have several "best men" to defend
him from the assaults of rivals and
prevent them from carrying away his
bride. The Scandinavian warrior Of
ancient times was far too lofty in his
ideas to condescend to plead for
maiden's hand. So he patiently wait
ed until some other man who was
more gallant had obtained the fair
ones consent.
Then when all the details had been
nicely arranged the proud warrior,
with body of well trained retainers,
dashed down on the wedding party
and, If strong enough. carried away
the bride.

sential that they should be the best

RACING PIGEONS.
Their Wonderful Speed and Mysterious
Homing Instinct.


Honins Instinct.
Racing pigeons are the iieetest OF all
creatures They have maintained a
speed of a mile and half minute
for a hundred miles, according to a
writer In Golfers. and they have
flown 700 miles between the rising and
the setting Of the sun.
Pigeons have flown a thousand miles
back to the home loft. In 1904 bird
covered that distance In 8 days 2
hours 10 minutes, proving how un-
erring Is the mysterious homing In.
stinct that will drive pigeons across the
continent without swerving. But this
test is not true sport. The birds sim
ply hurl themselves against time and
space till they are played out. They
can never race again.
The racer rises into the air with
heavy, slow wing pulsatlons; then
once poised over the starting point,
there is a swifter, shorter beat, and
the time is "hit up" to the third and
permanent wing rhy thin, rapid and
steady as a pulse beat. which carries
1t home. ~.
Racers fly 800 feet high over land, but
low over water. Their enemies as they
fly are wind. rain, gunners and hawks.
They do all their flying between sun
rise and sunset IL caught out over
night they fend for themselves till
dawn. .~4.
The homing instinct is lifelong. Dur.
Ing the Franco Prussian war the Ger
mans caught homing pigeon which
was on Its way into beleaguered Paris.
The bird was kept prisoner for ten
years. 1t was then released. 1t imme-
diately returned to It's old home.

The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1910-11-26

Thomas +. Cole, head of the syndi-
cate, was here a week ago and in an
interview denied that he had purchased
the townsite, but declined to go into
any extended interview as to the posi-
bihty Of his syndicate taking the prop
erty over later on. 1t has been an open
secret for many months that the Cole
Rya npeople for the Giroux Consolidat-
ed held an option on the holdings of
the Federal Ely, which has also a wa
ter right in the Steptoe valley, and the
presumtion is that the party now in the
district will decide between the Fed
eral Ely and the townsite holdings.
The presumption is in favor of TAX
ing over the latter for the reason that
they will get more water, which is the
first desideratum of the Giroux Consol-
idated The latter corporation wants
water for the operation of the concen-
traitor and smelter which are to be put
up in the district for the treatment of
the ores of the company. Mr.. Cole
stated while here hat both of these
plants would be erected here, but could
not or would not give the location Of
the proposed reduction plant. 1t is
easy to understand why he spoke in
this vein, the reason being that no de-
cision had been reached as to which
water right wuold be taken on.
At the same time the management of
the Giroux Consolidated believes there
will be considerable water developed IN
the workings of the Alpha and Giroux
shafts; possibly enough to operate a
concentration ON the Giroux property.
The Giroux has been getting its water
supply from the Nevada Consolidated,
and just now this supply is shut off for
the reason that the Nevada Console
dated is short of water in the opera
ton of the steam shovel pit. From
this it will be seen that it behooves the
Giroux Consolidated to get a water sup
ply of which it can depend on. They
are now prosecuting on the Alpha ore
body, and the time is at hand when
they should be getting ready for the
treatment of this ore, which is a direct
smelling product. Churn drills have
been at work in the porphyry ore
ground of the company, and it is claim
ed that sufficient ~porphyry ore has beel
developed to warrant the construction
of a concentration.

The tremendous Importance to the
state of Nevada OF the proof Of success
of the Electrostatic process of dry con.
centration of gold and silver ores, made
in Austin by the Austin Manhattan
Consolidated Mining company, cannot
be realized without some reflection,
says the Austin Reville.
Over prolonged tests made in the To-
cal plant during the past month OH
low grade ores, this company has pro-
duced concentrates assaying $4,000
with a seven to one degree Of conccn-
tration. One-fourth of the values are
IN gold; three-fourths in silver.
The ore now being milled in this
plant comes from the Jack Pot mine,
property that has been developed by
this company, and which is outside the
old Austin producing aret. Only the
low grade is being hauled to the mill
extensive tonnage of high grade be
ing sacked and left in the Slopes. The
mine with it's present showing will
more than keep the mill busy at it'
present capacity.
The Electrostatic process, thus prov
ed a success in Austin, is oftremen
dous Importance to Nevada, because tht
problem of a water supply is complete
ly eliminated. What water is in the
ore when mined is eliminated in a dryer
in the first stages of the process.
So there are many remote mines OF
low grade character that can join tbs

the workings, arrived with q small
bullion bar. The last bar was practi-
cally the remnant Of the cleanup and
was valued at about $4,000. Further
values will be recovered from the cyan
ides, and this will bring the total value
of the ore somewhere in the ~neighbor-
hood of $4,000.
This is the second bullion shipment
by Poakand Chapman, the first having
been made several months ago and was
of a value of about $4,000. The lease
is now in excellent condition, and as
considerable machinery has just been
installed the next cleanup should great
ly surpass the two former ones. A
good tonnage of high grade ore has
beeen blocked out and can now be ex-
tracted with but little trouble. The
milling facilities in the northern camp
are excellent and several good sized
fortunes are assured from the leasehold
on the Big Four.

err several members of the jury had ca
pressed a belief that the accused had a
good case of self defense. However, l.
was thought best to have the matter
decided by a trial jury.
Aside from action taken in criminal
cases the grand jury recommended that
an expert accountant be employed for
the purpose of auditing the books of
the several county officers before the
new administration takes hold. The
recommendation was made as a matter
of custom.
The jury also recommended that the

GRAND JURY
IND|CTS
five

The Esmeralda county grand jury, at
1880 p. m. Tuesday, rendered its
report to Judge Somers. The document
carries FIVE indictments, four open, and
one secret. Those made public were
against the following:
Will A. Flowers, murder.
George Gibson, assault with intent
to kill.
David Roach, attempt to murder.
Mrs. Jennie Enright, grand larceny.
The secret indictment is against q
person now absent from the state, but
will shortly be made open for his arrest
will probably be effected today.
Flowers being charged with murder,
no bail was allowed in his case. In the
Gibson and Roach cases bail was ixei
at SIS, 1000, while Mrs. Enright will ~
allowed her liberty on 81 1000 bail
John Diskin and Arnold Liechti VIII
be associated together in the defense
of Flowers. The first named attorney
will also defend Gibson.
The indictments against Roach, Glib.
son and Flowers were expected, but
that against Mrs. Enright came as q
surprise. She is charged with making
away with two cabins and contents, the
complaining witness being Mrs. A
Leishmap. The matter was brought to
the attention of the district attorney Il
office about a month ago., but in that
Mrs. Enright at that time exhibited a
bill of sale of the cabins from n Cum
ningham, and the matter appeared to
be appropriate for the civil side of the
court, so no action was taken.
Since that time it is claimed that
information has reached the authofl-
ties that Cunningham was rot In Cold
field at the time the bill OF sale WAS
drawn, and therefore The document rs
ficticious. Assistant District Attorney
Springmeyer advised against the 81
turning of the Indictment ON the
ground that a copsiction could prob1-
bly, not be had. However, the grand
jurors expressed a determination to
put a stop to alleged general house
stealing going on in Goldfeld.
tt is understood that the indictment
