WILL START SATURDAY

The latest news from Fowler's
camp is that he expects to start
from Colfax Saturday morning.
The tail piece for his machine has
not arrived and has probably
been lost in transit. A tracer
has been sent out and It is thought
that he will surely have his repairs
today .or tomorrow. As soon ms
a the tail piece arrives 1t will be
attached and a trial fight made.
He will then leave Colfax and fly
to Fallon without stopping in
Reno. He expects to make Win
nemucca the first day and will be
in Elko about noon the second day
after leaving Colfax.

AGED WOMEN DIES At FARM

Mrs. Katherine one Wise. Of the
Oldest women Of this State. died
at the County Farm Saturday ana
was buried at the cemetery at the
Place the following day.
Little is known of the real early
life OF the deceased. She was
born in Ireland 80 years ago, rs
was shown by the papers and
documents held by her. Her first
husband was killed in the Civil
War. After that time she moved
to Bodie where she was we'll known
for years. Later she moved to
Hawthore and married a man by
the name of Wise. He left her
and she drifted to this city, where
She was admitted to the County
Hospital tw"nty-four years ago.
During the boom days of Bodie
a man was killed over the woman
and other lively times were
occasioned by her. Up to the past
fifteen days she has been in good
health and almost to the last
retained her faculties. She was
given special privileges at the
farm and for years has maintained
a room by herself. By her death
the oldest person living in this
section of Nevada has passed to
history.-Carson Appeal.

REPORTS OF GOOD CHEER


at the present time in the caste IN
and nothern part of the state than
there has been for years past" 10
the general verdict of the camp
papers. and of individuals familiar
with recent development in
Nevada.
A survey of that portion of the
State reveals a large amount of
work being carried ON. with i'm
portant results being secured. An
instance showing the eagerness
with which the work is being
pursued is reported from camp
National, which is famed for the
unusual richness of much of the
ores being mined. Desiring to
know as quickly as possible the
possible value of dump at one of
the National mines the leassee in
question sent a ton sample, by
express. to Denver for a mill
test.
More work is now being carried
on in this camp than ever before;
new leases have been granted, and
now development work put under
way. The fact that the United
States Geological Survey has
made survey of the camp
this summer is but another
Indication uf the important place
which it is assuming in the mining
history of the State.
Winnemucca an older camp,
near by. has also sent out reports
Of good finds. and of active work
under way. Sensational strikes
have been reported, some unusual
finds apparently being almost half
gold. The Adamson-Turner pro-
perty at this point is attracting
the most attention through the
rich discoveries which have been
made.
A mining man recently making
a trip through Elko county says
developments Of much interest are
taking place in the Gold Creek
section. which lies about eighty
miles north Of the town of Elko.
Another section where strikes of
Importance have been made is the
east slope Of the Humboldt range
some twenty miles to the west of
Winemucca.
Adjoining Elko county to the
south lies White Pine county.
where is situated one of the
greatest copper camps ever
opened. The Nevada Consolidated
Copper company now holds the re-
cord for the profitable extraction
Of values from very low grade ore
and further improvements, reports
say. may even further reduce the
cost.
Considerable work is going for
ward at other camps in White
Pine county. and the prospects for
the year are looking very bright.
This. in fact, is the vredict
with regard to mining in the
State Of Nevada, as a whole.
Prospecturs are going out stronger
than for two or three years past,
and further discoveries Of merit
may be looked for.
What with the revival of the old
camps. The opening Of old pre-
perties and the new discoveries
being made, Nevada should have
an excellent record to present at
the end Of the year.-Goldfeld
Tribune.

be to the credit Of the ncwly-created State Boxing Commission. it is
offset by the fact that the bout wa fought with fve-ounce gloves, in
ssad Of the eightounce gloves required by the law.
The Boxing Commission, which licensed this fight and others
b follow, Is at its debut face to face with charges Of violation Of sew
