SHIP BULLION BY MAIL.
Round Mountain Mining Company
Has Faith In Uncle Sam.

An innovation in shipment of bull
lion from southern Nevada has been
introduced by the Round Mountain
Mining company. Its bullion is now
being sen to the mint by registered
mail instead of by Wells Fargo ex-
press, as has been the custom in the
past. Heretofore the bullion was
brought over to Goldfield once a
month by automobile and shipped
from here, but now bullion is sent
out by registered mail from the post
Office at Round Mountain, greatly re-
ducing the express and responsibility
of the company In its transportation.
The bullion is insured in behalf of the
company.
Currency for the payroll is also
conveyed by registered mail, being
sent over to Goldfeld and insured.
The plan of shipping bullion by
registered mail was introduced some
time ago in northern Nevada by the
National Mines company in Hum
boldt county, and has given eminent
satisfaction.
The battery of ten stamps secured
form old Gold Bar mill at Rhyolite
and transferred TO the Round Noun

.DEATHl0F /. c. RHODES
Body Brought Home from California,
Where He Died, and Laid to
Rest with Loved Ones.

Henry G. Rhodes, one of Bryan's
best beloved sons, and whose death
has already beeh announced in these
columns, passed peacefully into rest
at Monrovia, Cal, near Los Angeles
on Thursday, December IA, 1911. For
the past year Mr.. Rhodes had been
in failing health and during the past
summer went California in the hope
that the invigorating climate of that
section would restore him to his usual
health and strength.
For while he seemed to improve
but OF late had not been doing so well,
and one day last week suffered a Sc
we're attack of heart failure. His wife
and son were notified by wire of the
turn for the worse and left at once for
his bedside, but the end came on
Thursday, the day following the at
tack, and they did not reach him until
Sunday.
While everything was done for him
that medical skill and trained nursing
could do, and every temporal want was
supplied by his Masonic brethren, yet
he died stranger in strange land.
No loved one was there to smooth his
weary pillow and kiss down the eye
lids into that blessed and eternal
sleep. God grant that the first faces
he shall see ON the awakening of that
glorious morn shall be of them who
We're near and dear to him.
Henry G. Rhodes was a son of the
late Mr.. and Mrs. William r. Rhodes,
and was born in Huntsville, Texas, on
September 7, 1868, making him at the
time of his death 43 years, 3 months
and Z days of age. He came to Bryan
with his fathers family in 1869 when
only one year old, and this city has
been his home continuously since He
was educated in the schools of this
city, the A. & NJ. College, and later
graduated at the Poughkeepsie Bust
ness College of Poughkeepsie, n. Y.
He was raised up in the old Chatham
Machinery Company, and after the
death of Col. r. X. Chatham and his
father, Mr., William R. Rhodes, the
business was continued by him and
his brothers, the late Col. A. NJ.
Rhodes and S. e. Rhodes. After the
death of his brothers the Chatham
Machinery Company went out Of bust
ness and he entered the service of the
Continental Gin Company of Dallas
and continued with it until his death
He was good man and citizen, true
to every obligation in life, true to his
