Five Years
of Heart Trouble Cured by
DIR. Miles Heart Remedy

Before l began taking DR..
Miles Heart Remedy I had been
suffering from heart trouble for
over five years. I had pains in
my left side, and under my
shoulder blade, could not sleep
on the left side, and was so short
of breath the least exertion
would bring on the most distress
ing palpitation. had scarcely
taken half bottle of the Heart
Remedy before 1 could see a
marked change in my condition.
When I had taken six bottles I
was cured"
MRS. c. C. GORKEY,
Mortified, Va.
If there is futtering or palpi-
tation it is an indication of a
weakness of the nerves and mus
cles of the heart. 1t is not neces-
sarily diseased-just weak from
over-work. The heart may be
weak just the same as the eyes,
stomach or other organs. You
can make weak heart strong
by taking DR.. Miles Heart REM
edy. Get a bottle from your
druggist, take it according to di-
rections, and if it does not bene-
fit he will return your money.

CHILD IS BORN WITH
PART OF ARM MISSING

Ushered into existence minus a
portion OF the left arm. baby girl
arrived last Monday night at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. F. C. Sears in
Ely. The absence of limb is un-
usually rare in child birth. and ply
sicians who have had years of prac-
tice have not experienced malfor-
nation of this nature in connection
with their regular duties.
The left arm has the appearance
of having been amputated about two
inches below the elbow, and there
appears to be only one bone in the
forearm. When the infant moves
the fingers of its right hand slight
twitehing of the nerves and muscles
in the other arm is noticeable.
The father is employed as an
asbestos worker at MeGill, while the
mother is daughter of Mrs. II. w

medical works give accounts of such
anomalies in various forms, but that
this is the first instance of deforn u
tion that he has experienced.

YOUTH SENT TO

AFTER TREATMENT HAD PROV

VEINS Is FOUND TO BE DE-
MENTED BY COMMISSION.

Displaying tendencies which indi-
Gated that he was mentally un-
balanced, Karl Stevens of McGill, 23
years of age, was committed to the
insane asylum at Reno yesterday by
a lunaey commission consisting of
Drs. L. T. Brock and c. w. Woods.
No arrangements have been made
to take the unfortunate youth to the
Nevada hospital for Mental Diseases,
but it is probable that he will be re-
moved to his new home during the
early part of the week.
The unfortunate youth has been in
the custody of Sheriff Grain at the
county Jail for four weeks, and it was
hoped that he would regain part of
his faculties at least. His condition
grew worse, however, in spite of the
treatment that he was receiving.
Nerve sedatiyes were administered
by the county physician during the
period of his confinement, but the
effects were only temorary in their
nature
AT the request of intimate friends
who believe that Stevens was i'm

he might perish possibly from hun.

fore the mass of flames that enyel-
oped his body was extingulshed.
The injured youth was dressed in
the garb OF Santa Claus, and to Sc
cure the desired decorative effects.
there was liberal sprinkling OF
cotton on the outside of the costume.
In order to make the scene as real
istie as possible, Gardner determined
to have the Christmas candles blaze
forth in all their glory.
He had applied a match to one of
the candles, and was in the act Of
lighting another, when the cotton on
his sleeve became ignited. The
bl e spread rapidly 10 all portions
OF the garment. and It seemed as II
Gardner would be enyeloped In the
iiames. Gardner fought off the eff
forts of spectators who we're en-
devoring to put out the fire. and
tried to rush out OF the dance hall,
crying at the top of his voice Let
me get out" In spite of his efforts
Gardner was forced into a corner of
the building. and the larger portion
OF the burning costume was torn
from his body. Others came to the
rescue and smothered the blaze by
wrapping Gardner's legs with coats.
The pavilion was in an uproar for
few moments, and many OF the
dancers sought safety through the
front entrance. II friends had not
rushed to his assistance when he
was trying to escape from Wonder
land. where the wind would have
lashed the flames TO greater fury,
Gardner would have sustained ser
ious injuries
AS soon as the victim was removed
to the Clark drug store for medical
assistance. dancing was resumed and
nothing further served TO disturb the
usual serenity. Hamilton's orches-
ira, which furnished music for the
dance. never ceased their playing,
while the throng was in somewhat
panic stricken condition, believing
that he srains of music would have a
soothing effect.

[EASERS DOING
WE[LAT K|NSLEY
SALT LAKE OPERATORS EXPECT
10 MAKE REGULAR SHIP.
MENT FROM PROPERTY IN
NORTHERN PART OF COUNTY.

F. w. Rouche and associates of
Salt Lake, who have obtained a lease
on the properties of the Kinsley De-
yelopment Mining company in the
Northern part of White Pine county.
have begun taking out ore in the
south end Of the extensive group at
a point where a strike was made
Just before work was discontinued
last Summer.
This discovery was made in the
face of a 100-foot tunnel, where a
vein a foot and half in width was
opened. An assay made at the time
showed seventeen and a half per cent
copper, eight and a third ounces sill
yer, and 81 In gold.
The ore makes in a north-south
tissue in the lime. The probabilitie
are that the leasers will soon have
some good ore to ship. They will
first drift north on the vein at the
point where indications are very
favorable for the vein opening out
into a profitable ore shoot. The
shipping point is at Currie station on
the Nevada Northern.
The Kinsley Development has a
big territory heavily fissured.
There are twenty-five to thirty dis
tinct parallel assures with a north
south strike cutting through the
country rock, many of the veins out
cropping prominently. In the north
end of the property several of these
assures have been tapped at some
depth. and they have yielded 500 to
700 tons of good grade shipping ore
which has been forwarded TO the
Salt Lake market. All this ore
averaged $50 to s35 a ton in lead,
silver. and gold. This ore was ex-
tracted from the property at least a
mile and a half from the new strike
In the south end. where the copper
runs high.
The talk of a feeder branch from
the Western Pacific railroad from
some point near Wendover to Ely
would undoubtedly select White
Horse pass as about the only feasible
way through the Shell Greek range.
That would bring the rail within a
stones throw of the portal of the
new Kinsley tunnel, the mine being
twelve miles from the pass and in di-
rect line where the railroad must
take.

Ruby's Place in Restricted Dis
trict IS Scene of Unsuccess-
fuI Holdup Yesterday
SUSPECT HAS BEEN ARRESTED
GEORGE CAHILL WILL BE AR
RAIGNED IN JUSTICE COURT
NEXT MONDAY ON CHARGE OF
ATTEMPTED ROBBERY.

An unsuccessful attempt which
was made about $50 o'clock yes
terday morning to hold up the dance
hall in the tenderloin district, known
as Ruby's place, resulted in the cap
ture of George Cahill six hours later.
shortly after he had boarded the sub
urban train for McGill.
The arrest was accomplished by
Deputy Marshall George Gilbert, and
after the suspect had been positively
identified by Thomas H. O'Neill,
manager of the place, Cahill was
turned over to the county authorities.
A charge of assault with intent to
commit robbery was perferred
against the prisoner yesterday after
noon. He will be arraigned in the
justice court Monday morning at 10
o'clock.
The lone robber while he was
placing a mask over his eyes was de-
tected by June Crammer, a piano
player in the redlight district, while
he was preparing to consummate his
plans. He notified the occupants OF
the saloon of the Impending rob-
berry, and several went outside of the
building to await his approach. Un-
dismayed by the appearance of five
men, the would-be bandit ordered
those on the outside to throw up
their hands. He went into the in
terror and gave similar command.
Realizing that he would not be able
to control the situation, the holdup
left the building without reaping any
financial benefits from the expedition.
The fleeing robber dashed down
the street in the direction of the
storm sewer, and discarded the towel
which had concealed his eountenance-
Cahill entered Ruby's place about
five minutes later, and after short
stay remarked that he had heard in
Jim's place some unknown person
had tried to holdup the saloon. AS
the failure had not been reported to
the police at that time, the piano
players suspected Cahill as the hold
up. O'Neill readily recognized the
late arrival as the man, who had di-
rected him to throw up his hands.
Noticing a slight cut on Cahill's
hand, O'Neill asked him how the
flesh had been bruised. Cahill said
that he and two friends had been
relieved of all their valuables by a
robber, and that he had received the
bruise during the mixup. Cahill
took his departure from the sunset
district a few moments later. Deputy
Marshal Gilbert was placed on his
trail about o'clock yesterday morn
ing Another suspect was arrested
yesterday morning by the city officials
but he was released upon furnishing
a satisfactory alibi.

with just as much feryor as If the
contending teams were involved in
life or death struggle. According
to the contentious of the Ely crowd 4,
the title of champions of the grid
iron has already been snaked away
to their lair. the three initial clashes
being figured as merely practice
games.
The McGill bunch was rushed to
the ground and their walls razed by
the visitations of the Ely yell
There was no cheering and in
fact no celebration of any kind to
mark the day set aside for the gen.
eral giving of thanks for favors be-
slowed during the last twelve
months.
McGill forced things in the first
quarter, and had the ball in danger
Gus territory most of the time. The
smelter warriors advanced the oval
largely on long end runs, and it was
only when Kennear or Scott got away
for big gains around either extremity
that McGill displayed any real class.
The doughty left toe OF Hips was a
wonderful asset to the Ely hosts, and
on numerous occasions he booted the
ball out of treacherous territory.
Ely punted ass yards during the
four quarters, while McGill had only
205 yards credited to the same
source. McGill ran in punts 81
yards, while Ely was able to carry
the ball back only 80 yards. Ely
gained Il yards more on forward
passes than their rivals. McGill out
classed their opponents in center
rushes and end runs. Ely suffered a
loss of 40 yards through penalties,
while the copper makers sustained
loss of 80 yards through violations
of the rules.
The McGill eleven had decidedly
the best of the first quarter, and
forced the ball to Ely's fifteen yard
line. McGill was penalized twenty
/ five yards in the next period. Schmit-
troth caught a perfect forward pass
from Hip which netted twenty yards
The Ely captain got away for twenty
five yards few minutes later by the
same methods, and placed the ball
behind McGill's goal posts.
Ely goal was in danger several
times during the second half, but the
local bunch stopped the advance OF
their rivals after they had brought
the pigskin from midfield to within
about eleven inches of the desired
point.
