BIG AUDIENCES NIGHTLY AT
AERODOME PICTURE SHOWS

That the interest in motion picture
plays is increasing in Winnemucca IS
very evident from the increased at
tendance at the performances given at
the Aerodome. Nightly performances
and continual change of PROGRAM has
given many people an opportunity to
form "habit" of dropping in at the
shows and thus being afforded an hour
of genial and wholesome amusement.
The feature film for this week will
be "The Maccabees,' to be shown on
Saturday and Sunday evenings. Fol
lowing this will come "H Trovatore =
Faust and "The Star Spangled
Banner the date to be announced
later.
The management received an. excel
lent advertising slide today for the
Haviland Hoskins livery barn from
r. L. Fisher, the local photographer.
IT is an excellent piece of work and
will add greatly to the already keen
intrest taken in this feature of the
Evan & Stidd shows.

HEAVY BLASTING
ON SNAKE RIVER
Especial to the silver state,

SPOKANE, Wash, Aug. l7.-Four
hundred thousand pounds of blasting
powder, discharged in two electrically
ierd shots, tore more than 100000
tons of rock from the face of a high
cliff overlooking the Snake river,
south of Spokane, and made possible
the saving of so miles of road con-
struction on the third division of the
Oregon Washington Railroad & Navi-
cation company's system, between
Spokane and Ayr Junction. The two
shots cost 100000.
F. l.. Pitman, chief engineer of the
division, said ON returning to Spokane
that the work was successful in every
way, though the last shot was more in
the nature Of an explosion, as it hurled
the rock with greater velocity and left
the roadbed in a broken condition.
However, the rock was well broken
freight and passenger trains will be
routed over other lines. One hundred
men now are at work on the roadbed.
"The full strength of the powder
was obtained Pitman said, "and the
amount Of rock broken down may be
judged when it is known that 10 days
will be required to clear the roadDed
for trains.'
George Chew, of Spokane, who had
charge of the blasting work, started
operation on May l with a crew of
men and completed the loading on the
afternoon of August IL. He used 49,
900 kegs of powder in the "coyote
holes,'' aggregating more than 5000
feet of drilling in rock The powder
plant used to fire the shots was install
led behind the cliff. Two units were
fired in SO minutes.
"'The spectacle was witnessed by
200 sight-seers, including two women,
Mrs. H. r. Rudd and Mrs. N. H.
Bogue, who drove 35 miles across the
country. Hundreds of fish in the
Snake river were killed and stunned
by the two violent blasts and much
of the broken rock was hurled across
the stream. No one was injured.

CASEY PAYS PEN
ATTY Of Crime

At two minutes past IL O'Clock yes
terday morning Patrick Casey was
hanged at the state penitentiary.
Contrary to expectation, Casey ex-
hibited no signs of nervousness, walk
ing to the gallows unaided and without
being shackled. The execution passed
off without hitch, and the condemned
man was pronounced dead in two min
utes after the drop.
The crime for which Casey suffered
the death penalty was particularlv ag-
grevated At Goldfield he shot and
killed Mrs. Heslip in the presence of
her husband, on the veranda of her
own home, wounding another lady who
was sitting by her side. Through grief
over the loss of his wife Heslip after
wards took his own life.
While the murderer admitted that
Casey was mot his name. so far as
known he never revealed his identity.

message:
~ am in full sympathy with the
concern of reasonable and patriotic
men that the valuable resources of
Alaska should not be turned over to
be exploited for the profit of greedy,
absorbing, monopolistic corporations
or syndicates. Whatever the attempts
which have been made, no one, as
matter of fact, has secured in Alaska
any undue privilege or franchise not

gress, and in all the scandal with
which the public has been RECALLED very
few specific instances Of corrupt or
improper attempts to acquire vested
interests in Alaska have been shown
by evidence that would stand the test
of judicial explanation.
"On the other hnd, the acrimony Of

been engendered in respect to the ad-

measures proposed for her relief and
the wanton recklessness and eager
ness with which attempts have been
made to besmirch the character of
high officials having to do with the
Alaska government, and even of per.

CLAIMS
AT CRAY'S LAKE

J. L. Stafford, who has been examin-
ing mining property in Utah and Idaho
for eastern capitalists, returned home
yesterday morning after an absence of
about three weeks. In this period he
visited number of mines in the nor
thern part Of Utah and the southwest
ern section Of Idaho. Regarding the
particular properties which he inves-
tigated, Mr.. Stafford declined to say
anything until his report had reached
his clients.
Speaking generally Mr.. Stafford said
the mining conditions in the sections
visited by him were good, though
money for investment or development
purposes was pretty tight.
In the Gray's lake section num-
ber of placer claims are being worked
on leases and good results obtained.
The quartz properties we're not as ac-
tive. Aside from mining the country
was in a very flourishing condition.
They have had a bonanza hay crop, in
fact so much hay has been cut that the
price at present is down to $3.50 ton
at the stack. Gray's lake itself is
something Of a producer for those liv-
ing on its borders. Aside from the
fish, which are very plentiful, last win
ter over 1000 muskrats were captur-
ed and the skins brought all the way
from 40 cents to $1.0O piece.
Out in the wilds of northern Neva-
da, seventeen miles west Of Jarbidge
and eighty miles north Of Elko, where
timid game roam the heavily tim
bered hills, and delicious trout swarm
the many rippling streams which
course down dale and valley, is To-
Gated the Clipper property, made up
of FIVE claims discovered two years
ago by Messrs. Menging and Schine,
who have hung onto the ground, the
magnet being the high gold and sill
yer values found from the surface
down to the bottom Of a sixty-foot
shaft, says the Salt Lake Herald Re-
publican.
The formation of the district is
granite and lime. This sixty-fOot
shaft has been sunk in the soft gran
ite footwall side, and surprising values
have been found all the way, accord
ing to J. L. Stafford, NJ E., of Win
nemucca, who is in town negotiating
with Salt Lake people for the sale of
the property.
The bottom of this shaft gave the
following sampling returns: l7.s6
ounces in silver and $30.S0 in gold, a
total value of $39.73. A general sam
pling from the collar Of the shaft ia
the bottom gave the following high
returns: Gold, $71.2o; silver, 26,3s
ounces. At the thirty-foot level a
forty-foot drift has been run, a sam
pling of the face of which showed
$500 in gold and 1884 ounces silver
The entire drift gave the following re
turns: $6S.S0 in gold and 2S.56 ounces
silver.
The property is only FIVE miles south
of Gold Creek, where Messrs. Ray and
Greenwood and associates are erect
ing a mill and otherwise carrying on
mining in a splendid gold property.
BY stage from Elko, the trip to the
Clipper requires more than day, the
charge being $3.50. BY auto, the dis
tance can be covered in five hours, n
the road is excellent. The auto charge
out there is about $50 day. Where
there is a party, and time is money
the auto is the onlv Way.
