NEVADA MINERALS
MAKE BIG SHOWING
Heavy Production Causes Favorable
Newspaper Review

Crowding ever forward steadily
creeping up to the highest notch.
Nevada claims the attention OF the
world as d producer OF gold. The
geological survey preliminary report
credits her with $l7 100000 worth of
the precious metal, but authorities at
Gald6eld. whore the greatest porilon
OF output originated, contend that
the estimate is at least 81, 50O.000 too
low. If this contention should prove
true, it may result in the relegation
of Colorado TO third place in the gold
producing list, with two states Of the
great southweSt-Cal California and Ne
vada-leading the procession. Add
ing the production of Arizona, which
was $3,375,256 last year the great
southwest mining fields have added
no less than $44,00000O0 worth Of
gold to the worlds supply in twelve
months.

When final figures are available,
it will be found that the total mineral
production of California for 1910 was
in the neighborhood of sos 100000;
that OF Nevada about $40,OO0OO0, and
that of Arizona, leader of the copper
world, about $S4,000,0O0. In other
words, the two states and one terri
tory generally known as the Great
Southwest, have been responsible for
no less than $153,OOO,OOO in 1910
over $12,000000 for every month and
about 100000 for every day Is it

Out in Winnemucca a poison hend

Of dogs have gone to the happy
hunting ground. Some OF the best
animals in the town have been killed
off and the dog owners are hot on
the trail Should the poisoner be
run to cover it will go hard with
him.
The following item is worth pub
lication for the benefit OF those who
own dogs:
If the owners OF dogs know what
to do, and do it at once, when dog
is known to be poisoned the dog may
often be saved. Strychine is the poi
son most frequently employed. 1t
especially affects the hind quarters
and spine Of the animal, with a
tendency to paralyze and prevent
walking upright, the hind feet drag
ging heavily as the poison advances
in effect. These symptoms some
times show before any signs OF con
vulsions begin. AT once give the
dog all the melted lard, suet, fat or
any oil or possible form OF grease
which may be quickly secured For
some hours, at least, allow no water
or milk to be taken by the dog.
A dog which is regularly led about

the most remarkable occasions in the
history OF Gibson County has closed,
the reunion OF the Wade clan. From

nessee and, from many other sections
OF the State, from North, South, East
and West, from foreign countries and
from Arkansas, came hundreds Of the
kith and kin OF this family gathered to
celebrate in one grand family reunion.
The event was promoted by Fl. II.
Wade, Uncle Dick" and was held at
the Gibson County fair grounds. The
large amphitheatre was divided into
sections and each decorated with the
colors of that branch which was to oc-
cupy it. During the latter years of
the eighteenth century William Wade
moved into Tennessee from Maryland.
He was the father of five daughters and
sight sons. OF these thirteen children

Of family row Of five weeks standing
Floyd Workman, aged 27, shot and killed
Doff Claudio. aged so, second husband
Of Wortman's mother-in-law, at the
latter's home, two miles from here, Sun
day afternoon.
Workman surrendered to the author
tiles after the killing, but was quickly
released when a coroner's jury found
that he acted in self-defense. Claudio
attacked him with knife, and after a
desperate fight, Workman succeeded in
grabbing a shotgun, which he used with
deadly effect.
Claudio married Wortman's s mother
in-law five weeks ago. and several quar-
rels took place between him and Wort
man over family matters. II is said
that.on occasions Claudio threatened to
kill the younger man The quarrels
were patched up, according to general
belief Saturday night Workman went
to Claudie's home to spend the night
and Sunday.
1t is said that both men had been
drinking Sunday before noon, and after
dinner they began quarreling anew.
According to the evidence presented at
the inquest, Claudio drew knife and
attacked Workman, who defended him
self as best he could, until an oppor-
tunity came to seize shotgun.
Workman backed away from Claudio
and fred twice at him. One load took
effect in the thigh, and the second in the
right breast This latter caused almost
instant death, as several Of the shot
pierced the heart
Both men are farmers and were wide /
y known throughout this section.

Everybody is going to attend the Full
ton County Fair at Fulton, KY, August
go to September 2, because the Fulton
people have spent more than $15, ,00o. 90
on their fair grounds and in securing
attractions never witnessed at any fairin

the attractions will be seen the great
aeroplane flights, a marvel Of the TWEEN
tieth century. TO secure this attraction
alone cost more than 81 900 and it is
one of Che most sensational and daring
feats of modern times TO see man
travelling through the air faster than a
passenger train can run. No one can
afford to miss seeing the birdman fly.
That is why everybody will go to the
Fulton County Fair.
Again, there viii be four big races
daily. The greatest array Of running,
trotting and pacing horses are already
on the grounds in training and the
large purses are very attractive.
The Floral Hall exhibit will be an
attractive feature as we'll as magnif-
cent display Of fine stock in the show
rings. Good music all the time. Lots
Of shade. Large annphitheatre. Every
thing TO make one enjoy themselves.
Make arrangements now to meet your
friends at the Fulton County Fair,
August 20 to September 2; they will all
be there, and by all means don't fail to
see the great airship with its passengers
flying thousands Of feet in the air. 1t
viii be a great sight and maybe you will
not have such an opportunity again.
The fair company has arranged with
the railroads for special low rates for all
and you can attend the Fulton County

Death of Mrs. Helm.

The remains OF Mrs. Ola Allen Helm
we're shipped TO Union City for burial
reaching here last Monday morning.
Mrs. Helm died at JohnsonviIle, while
en- route TO Nashville, accompanied by
her husband, for the purpose Of surgical
and medical treatment. They came
down the river by boat and landed just
in time Sunday TO see the train bound
towards Nashville leaving. A few hours
later Mrs, Helms death took place.
Deceased was nearly 20 years of age,
her birthday being the 10th of Septem-
ber. Twenty months ago yesterday she
was united inf marriage to Mr.. Helm,
and the separation, in view Of the cir
cumstances, is indeed sad. Miss Ola
Allen was reared in the home of the late
I. X. Curtin, this city. She was a young
woman OF the highest type of Christian
graces, modest, refined. The union was
happy one, and but for Mrs. Helms
unfortunate illness might have con-
tinued until the frosts Of age found
them with happy household travelling
side by side towards the evening sun.
Mrs. Helm was member OF the Cum
berland Presbyterian Church, and funer-
al services were held at the church here,
conducted by Rev j L. Hudgins The
remains were inferred at East View.
