Last week the Post stated thai
the Big Four was producing a
the rate of $4,000 per day, which
was true, and the paper is glad tc
be able to announce that this weeh
it is doing better still.
The mill returns during the pass

/ Manhattan points with pride tc
the Big Four as an object lesson
as tc what may be accomplished
elsewhere in the camp, if the same
intelligent and persistent effort be
pursued in development that has
characterized the present owners of
the Big Four lease.
The Post still insists that there
are other Big Fours to be opened
up in this district. and it wishes
showings equal to those of tho
to emphasize the fact that the,

White Caps when at the same stage

The mining man or investor who
fails to investigate the merits of
the Manhattan district and the
many opportunities where a little
capital combined with experience
will open producing mine if not
a bonanza, is certainly overlooking
the zone best bet of the year.
The record of Manhattan's mines
is being written, not on the stock
board, but in the mint returns.

THE UMCRACKS."
An Old Prospector's Opinion,
by Clarence II. Eddy.

was always a hearty eater
But | don't keer much for style,
favor something substantial
That will stay with Teller
awhile,
The iimcl acks won't stay by you
When il really come to rub
So don't keer much for iimcraeks
But I'm hell on grub
Some folks are just like iimcracks,
They are very sweet and nice
When your pathway is all roses
And you have the ready price
But then they won't stand by you
When it really comes to a rub;
Some fellers are like iimcracks
And some like solid grub.
Some wimmin are like iimcracks
And are sweet as sweet can be;
When you have a heap of money
And incline to spend it free
But one that will stand by You
When you haven't get the dough
Is worth more than all the jim

So | let the iimcracks go,

WISCONSIN THE LEAD.

Wisconsin has become practically
The leading dairy state of the union,

output in dairy products has increased
from nothing few years ago to a
value of s7S,OO0,O0O in 1910. This
tremendous increase in one industry
alone indicates the position which
Wisconsin will assume in the future

garnishment of salaries of employees
of the state, municipality, village and

different view of the matter. To the

Wonderful Teaming.

Tony Cano. the teamster in charge of
the Nevada Wonder company's freight
team, has reason to be proud of a
freight-moving feat which he success
fully accomplished. A steel tank for
the storage of oil for fuel at the mine
and mill recently arrived in Falion, to
be hauled to Wonder. This tank, 40 in
length and feet in diameter, and weigh
ing about 10000 pounds, was a most
awkward thing to transport over the
rough mountain roads. and bets were
freely made that he would not succeed
in landing it in Wonder. By building
cradles on two big wagons, placing one
end of the great tube on each wagon,
and driving carefully, he made the trip
without mishap.

PLAYED "AOOKEY" IN A BODY
And So Sixteen of High Schools
Pupils are Ingloriously
Suspended

Just because they attended the gram
mar school picnic last Friday without
asking permission, sixteen of the pupils
OF the high school girls and boys find
themselves suspended. This includes all
but ten of the total roster of the school.
And these ten are not incriminated be-
cause eight of them attended school
that day, despite the siren call of the
wild, and two of them had excuses from
their parents.
The situation over the matter reached
its climax Monday morning, when Prof.
fetter called out, one by one, the
names of those guilty of playing
"hooky" and advised them that they
stood suspended from the school, with
forfeiture of all school privileges.
The sixteen thereupon packed up their
doll rags and left for home.
Whether this is final, remains to be
seen. Without consulting any of the
school board, the impression about town
is that the action of Monday is largely
disciplinary, and after proper period,
spent in sorrowful regret and arrayed
in sackcloth and ashes, the offending
pupils will be allowed to re.enter school.
But it may entail forfeiture OF pro-
motion for this years school work.

WILL DOA GREAT FLYING STUNT
Ely, the Daring Aviator, Will
Give a Performance at
Reno July 4th

The first opportunity for the people
of this vicinity to witness real exhibi-
tion in the recent art of aviation will
be given on July 3rd and 4th when the
people of Reno will hold their Wa
shoes fiftieth anniversary celebration.
Rather than accept an unknown avi-
ator who might disappoint the great
crowds of people who will attend, the
committee in charge of the celebration
have gone to great expense in secur-
ing Eugene Ely, who ranks among the
first in the worlds aviators. Ely is
the man who received so much favor
able comment for his performance at
the flight at San Francisco some time
ago, when he flew out through the
Golden Gate and landed on the deck
of the battleship Pennsylvania and re-
turned through the habor.
No admission will be charged for
witnessing the flights, and they will be
right in the city SO that there will not
be any inconvenience in getting con-
veyances to see the exhibition. An ideal
spot has been prepared on the banks
of the Truckee river, where all can
see.
There will be several fights and
landings, and the eyolutions will be so
performed SO as to provide the great.
est possible entertainment for the
spectators. Ely will circle the city,
swoop down close to the crowds and
rise to an elevation almost out of sight.
If you have pair of field glasses take
them along.
At his exhibition last week at Eu-
reka, Cal, Ely made wonderful flights
in a gale of wind blowing at the rate of
forty-five miles an hour. He rose to
a height of 1900 feet and made four
circles high in the air, at one time
going out over the breakers on the
beach. On his return he landed within
a foot of his starting point, coming to
earth easily and gracefully without a
jar, holding thousands spellbound.

all points in Nevada and California by

COTTAGE BURNS TO GROUND
And Contents Prove a Total
Loss--No Clue as to the
Origin of Blaze

Inc two-room cottage on East Still

occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. C. A. Kauff-
man, was burned to the ground at
haif-past 10 O'Clock Saturday morn
ing, with total loss of building and
contents.
There is no explanation as to the
origin of the conflagration. The Kauff-
mans had moved into the building only
the evening before. According to the
story told by Mrs. Kaufman, she was
in the back yard when she noticed
smoke issuing from the kitchen door
in the rear. She rushed into the front
room, where she had left her baby
sleeping, and escaped by the front door.
A moment later the entire structure
was a mass of flames.
An alarm was turned in and the fire
department quickly responded. but
with no hopes of saving the burning
building. In fact, it was only by the
hardest effort that the residence adjoin.
ing on the west, occupied by Bob Dick
and wife, was saved. As it was, the
east side of the building was badly
scorched, while the two windows were
ruined.
There Is no theory as to the origin
Of the blsse. Mrs. Kaufman says
there was no fire In the kitchen stove,
and no lamp was alight in the front
roofni where the blake originated
The baby was asleep, and couldn't

crowd at the fire, and the suffl of s25 as

ALL SIGNS GOOD FOR BIG CROP
Sugar Beets in Valley in Excel
lent Condition--Busy
at the Factory

The writer spent last Sunday on a
trip of inspection of the beet fields of
this locality, and as a result he is able
TO predict a crop for the sugar cam
paipn that will come up to all expecta-
tions. The growth made is exceptional
considering how late the cool weather
held on this spring, and the past ten
days seem to have made up for the
lost time. In few cases, happily but
few, replanting was necessary because
the seed had decayed after germina-
tion had started, the cold nights pre-
venting plant growth. but even in these
instances the crop is but trihe behind
the most advanced fields.
Every indication at present points
to the probability of Fallon's first
sugar campaign exceeding all original
calculations. The chances are that the
crop raised here will show higher per-
centage of sugar content than any
raised at any point iu this latitude, the
dry heat of the semi arid regions going
to the making of sugar. This was the
case with the big factory at Phoenix.
Ariz., where the heavy sugar content
of the beets was so much in advance of
the estimates that it made measurable
difference in the price received by the
growers. 1t seems fair to presume
that a similar experience will be had
here.
So well satisfied are the growers
with the present condition of the sea
sons crop that some of them are al
ready increasing their estimates for
next seasons acreage. One man, who
planted 30 acres this year, contemplates
putting in over 100 next spring; and
many others talk the same way.
At the factory things are moving
along rapidly. A big force of mechun-
les Is engaged IN installing the machin-
cry in preparation for the growing
crop, and by the time the first wagon
lord of beets is hauled TO the factory
for treatment it will be running as
smoothly as a sewing machine.
