Reno. New, May l2.--Scotty, the
Man OF the Mysterious Mine, has
bobbed up in the neighborhood OF
Winnemucca. and by his appearance
and actions has again given the pros
pectors and storekeepers cause to
speculate on the hidden source OF
his wealth
That Scotty must have holduut

whenever he comes TO town he is
provided with plenty of money and
he has never been known to work.
Slouchy and shabby in appearance,
perennially garbed IN an old blue
shirt and a slouch hat betraying
faint traces of military origin, the
mysterious stranger talks garrulous-
ly, but never discloses even an ink
ling Of his business affairs. He has
provided his wife with home some
where, and whenever she appears
she betrays no want, but that is
about all the people know.
Scotty has been hanging around
the old Humboldt Range for nearly
year past, often boarding the South
