Last Saturday night at 6 o'clock
a meteor. about the size of the
moon-to the eye-passed through
the sky, its course being due
north.
j. M. Fox. superintendent of

pany, says the Rattlesnake, where
the mines. Of the company are
situated, the meteoric display was
very bright and illuminated the
heavens for several seconds and
inside of three minutes an eXplo-
sion, or sound resembling one,
was heard. 1t is thought the
meteor fell somewhere in the
noighbrohUod of Millets, 80 miles
due north of Hot Greek. AS the
meteor passed north it was seen by

COLO CIRCLE IS
IN WINNING CLASS


business and mining side of the
Gold Circle district was in Winnie
mucca yesterday. Cody has been
one of the districts standbys and
is largely interested in a material
sense in all that concerns the
present and the future of that
important mining section contri-
butory to Winnemucca
Cody is very optomistic as to
the future of the mining and
allied interests of the district. To
sustain this enthusiasm and con-
tdcnce he, in brief way, had the
following to say of the present
mining status of Gold Circle: ,..-.
i THE Elko Prince has passed the
primary state Of deveuplment and
is mine with many tons of 500
ore blocked out and on the dump.
AS the drifts are extended and
exploration work prosecuted, it
has become evident that the mine
is worth hundreds of thousands of
dollars as it stands today.
The Hillside property adjoining
is proving with development a fine,
large proposition. that it will
duplicate the Elko Prince"
According to Mr.. Cody the same
general favorable conditions exist
on the following properties of the
district: The Golden Fissure,
Chariots, Colorado Grandees,
Eastern Star, Panamas and the
Rex. The latter is steady pro-
Queer with excellent profits for
the owners. He points out that
all these properties have more than
fine showings and as matter OF
tact each has ore blocked and
exposed of the general milling
grade which will ultimately be
worked upon large scale and
employ many IN en-, thus increasing
the commercial Importance of that
section manifold. He also stated
that ousidc Of the Colorado Gran
decs, Eastern Star and Panama
deals, lately consumated, deals are
pending on the Bellvoir group and
Golden Fissures. The parties
for these properties
presumably arc Mcssrs. Gum and
Thompson Of Salt Lake for the
examinations being made by }.
Price, who is covering the district
for the parties in question.
Mr.. Cody urges that while
TIC mining situation is high-class
and inviting &c capital on large
scale, it is imprudtnt for wage
Carncrs to make a journey thence
u secure employment for the rca-
son that the present available
chances for employment are
limited to the miners in camp and
there is sill surplus of men in the
district. In the spring Mr.. Cody
predicts that the employment OPP
portumitics will be materially i'm

and incidentally visiting some of
the principal mining plants. Mr..
Farnsworth states that he is
greatly surprised at the great
strides forward made in the
mining industry IN the camp the
past year, andsthe evidences on all
sides of premanent revival, both
about the city and at the mines.
He says "old Virginia is proving
that she can come back, land is

II enamel has ceased to be the craze

There are so many pretty things that

the bonbonnieres which have perhaps
no practical utility now that they have
departed from their original purpose
as patch boxes. Those of larger size
are now utilized as variety boxes con

that In this capacity they are still
worse than useless.
Enamel boxes adorn our occasional

Others Look Down on Them.
A woman who advocates co-opera-
tive housekeeping says girls are
averse TO working as servants for the
same reason American men do not like
TO serve as buffers or Wallets.
She points out American girls have
the same spirit of independence as
their brothers and that they prefer
employment in factory or store
TO the duties of the kitchen. The rea-
son, she argues, Is simple. In the
kitchen, she says, the girl Is alone
and in many ways is made to feel her
position as a servant and as one who
T. inferior socially to the person who
employs her.
In factory the situation is different,
for there the girl has associates whom
she considers her equals, and she does
not feel she Is being humiliated.
Housekeeping, many women assert. is
hard enough In ones own home, and
until there is a system of cooperative
housekeeping, where girls may work
IL the. same atmosphere rs they do in
factories and stores. the servant prob
lem never will be solved.
