MANY NEW IMPROVEMENTS
AT WINNEMUCCA MARKET

S. A. Dedmon is making improve
ments at the Winnemucca market
which, when completed, will make this
one of the finest establishments of its
kind on the Pacific coast. The room
in the rear of the market, heretofore
used for the manufacture of sausage,
has been thrown into the sales room,
giving about l6 feet additional space.
A separate building on the rear end of
the lot now contains the manufaetur-
ing plant, smokehouse, etc. Included
in the equipment in this department
s an hydraulic lard compressor.
At the rear of the market proper
there will be built brick addition,
lSx2O feet, which will. be used as a
,old storage plant.
The changes are being made by
George j. Weidman and Son, the ar
ehitects and contractors.

Locks in Ancient Egypt.

The Egyptian lock, states the Iron
monger. was an assemblage of wooden
pins or bolts. 1t is possible that this
suggested to Brameh his remarkable
invention. The Roman lock was prac-
tically a paddock, and it seems prob
able that the key was of Green origin,
In Latin countries the locksmith never
confined himself TO mere door furnl-
ture At the very beginning as now
adays in Francois art embraced all
the wrought ironwork which serves to
close and secure our dwellings, from
a monumental garden gate and rail-
ings to a simple latchkey. That art
reached it's apogee about the fifteenth
or sixteenth century, so far as the
former class of work was concerned.
Some medieval specimens-the hinges
of the doors at Notre Dame, for in
stauce-are so remarkable that en-
vious and humorous contemporaries
have not failed to hint that the smith
who executed them must have sold his
soul to the devil.

COPPER PRODUCTION OF
u. s. SINCE YEAR 1876

The copper industry in the United
States has shown notable growth
according to the United States Geo
Logical Survey. In ls45, when inn
portant production of copper in this
country practically began the output
was but 224 900 pounds, but it increas
ed 100 per cent the following year,
and gained by rapid strides until 1850,
when the production was l,456,000
pounds. In 1870 il was 2s,224, 900
pounds; in 1890 it was 256, 763, ,e92
pounds; in 1900 it had increased to
o06. III ,166 pounds; in 1909 it passed
the billion mark, with 1902, 2,95l ,624
pounds; and in 1911 it exceeded all
previous records with production of
1907, ,232, ,749 pounds. The world s
production in 1911 was l,93s,2ol ,2so
pounds, of which Sc per cent was the
output of the United States.
1t is noteworthy that, unlike areas
producing most other metals, not one
o. the leading copper districts of the
United States, several Of which have
been active producers for period Of
thirty years or more, has been worked
out or showed marked decrease in its
ability to produce copper. Twelve
districts situated in eight states have
each contributed over l00,000,0OJ
pounds to the copper output of the
country, or total of 81 per cent OF
the whole output Of the United States
since lS45. -Four of these districts are
in Arizona, two in California and one
each in Montana, Michigan, Nevada
New Mexico, Tennessee and Utah.
Two districts stand out prominently
tie Butte district, Montana, which
has contributed over onethird of the
output of the country, and the Lake
Superior district Michigan, with n
production of a little less than one
third of the total output.

HOW ELEPHANTS ARE TRAINED
TO STAND ON HIND LEGS

Boarding house keepers wouldn t
like elephants. Besides, unbelievable
as it may seem, the elephant is deli
cate animal That is to say, he is
delicate in captivity. He is very sus-
ceptiblet to colds and chills and gen.
orally refuses to take medicine of any
kind. Also the training is very hard.
1t requires great patience and tact.
One should never offend an elephant,
for his is not a forgiving nature.
The trick Of teaching himto stand
on his hind legs is accomplished with
a strong crane. TO each of his four
legs is fastened rope from the crane.
Then the trainer gives the signal and
the ropes are pulled up until the
elephant is standing on his hind legs.
Day after day this performance must
be repeated. Finally there will come
time when the beast will have ac-
quired the habit, and then, at the cue,
i'll rise of his own accord.
One of the first tricks that a rainer
teaches an elephant is to make him
walk round and round an area. This
is done by holding some delicacy,
such as cake or fruit, before his trunk.
| But an elephant must always be
watched. He has disposition to
want to run away. He Is apt to 10 II
IA the middle of performance He
would rather he in his stable eating
tlan in the ring doing tricks. Eli
ward Lyell Fox, in Harper's Weekly.

DEEP BREATHING BEFORE BED
English Physician Gives Some Simple
Rules That VIII Aid Seekers
After Health.

A correspondent of the Medical
Times sends an interesting note on
deep breathing. The best time The
says) seems to be Immediately before
retiring to bed, as, doing nothing more
before lying down, the habit contin-
ucs and becomes fixed; the window, OF
course, should be open more or less.
After breathing in as much as pos
slble through the nose (out, anyhow,
either mouth or nose), the nose
should be held by the thumb and fore
finger with a handkerchief for about
fifteen seconds to prevent the escape
of air, and thereby force the constitu-
ents of the air over the system. This
should be repeated from four to eight
times at intervals of about half min
ute.
The particular proof OF this being
more effective than other methods
Is seen In the following experiences;
After following the above method |
notice that at the heaviest meal OF the
day my pulse quickens the same
whether | take fish or a strong meat,
such as beef or mutton; before observ-
ing the above points In deep breath
ing as to time and holding the nose
my pulse quickened much more aft
er strong meat than after fish.

P|TTMAN LOSES
IN FIRST round

1t was in general a day of victory
for Louis Schloss in his preliminary
against Key Pittman in
the district court at Tonopah yester-
day. before Judge Coleman of White
Pine, sitting for Judge Averin. The
Judge had notified all the attorneys
interested in Schloss action against
Key Pittman, John G. Kirchen, Rob
ert G. Hall, the Tonopah Merger Min
ing company and the Golden Anchor
Mining company, that he would rem
der his decision on the various mo-
tons and demurrers in the ease and
they were all there.
Schloss demurrer to the new mat
ter set out in the answer of Pittman,
Kirchen and the Tonopah Merger com
pany was sustained This new matter
would have injected into the action,
had it been permitted, what would
have been in substance suit to quiet
title Of the Tonopah Merger to its real
and personal property as against the
Golden Anchor, Schloss and the other
stockholders.
The motion of Hall IS attorneys to
strike out certain parts of the Schloss
complaint was denied. Hall de-
murrer, however, to the complaint
was on one point sustained. The court
held that Halls contention was cor
rect that the complaint should show
more fully and clearly WHY this suit
was instituted by Schloss instead OF
by the Golden Anchor Mining com
pany, and to cure this defect the
plaintiff was given fifteen days in
which to amend the complaint in this
particular. Hall was allowed twenty
days thereafter to file an answer to
the amended complaint. nt.-Goldfeld

MISS IANGWITH RESIGNS
AS GOL(ONDA POSTMASTER

Miss Mary E. Langwith, postmaster
at Golconda, has resigned, and Eugene
L. Dutertre has been appointed by the
president to fiji the Office for the next
four years Miss Langwith Is term
would not have expired for more
than two years, and her popularity is
such that, although appointed by a
Republican president, she would prob
ably have been re-appointed by Pres
ideut Wilson when her term expired
The postoffiee at Golconda, under Miss
Langwith s management, is rated in
the postoffice department as model
office. Eugene L. Dutertre, who has
been appointed to the Office. was for
merly postmaster at Golconda, and it
was during his term that the office
was raised from fourth to a third
class office.
There were many expressions of re-
gret that Miss Langwith was going to
leave the office, when the news was
published in the last issue of the Sill
yer State Miss Langwith will visit
in California for some time and will
then come to live in Winnemucca.

s. P. Will ISSUE
new STATE MAP

A large map of Nevada, containing
several new features, which will ap-
peal to persons in all lines of work, is
soon to be issued by the Southern Pa
eifc Railway company. A proof of
the new map has been received by j.
M. Fulton of this city, together with
word that the Rand McNalIy company
Of Chicago, which is running them off
will have the $4,000 ordered ready for
delivery within 20 days.
The new map is % inches long by
II inches wide. All county seats are
shown, various measurements are in
cluded along the margins and all
points are properly indexed. One of
the most important features of the
map, however, is that it shows prac
tically every wagon road in the state.
This will be of invaluable aid to mo-
torists and horsemen.-Reno Gazette

away, gave the alarm, and brought
several men back with him, who NOV
ed Laux to Kennedy.
The greater part of today was taken
up by severe cross examination of
Labjgan by attorneys for the defense,
but his testimony remained practical

MASSEY TRIFS TO (OLLtG
PIUTE INDIAN WAR CLAIMS

Senator Massey endeavored to at
tach several Nevada claims to the
omnibus claims bill. They grew out
of hostilities against the Piute In
dians in Nevada in 1860 Settlers in
Nevada territory voluntarily contrib
uted horses, provisions, ammunition
and other supplies for an expedition
against the Indians. The latter de-
feated the expedition and captured
much of its property. The volunteers
claimed reimbursement for their
losses from the government, although
the expedition was not a government
affair, upon the ground that the In
dians were the wards of the govern
ment, and that it was up to the gov
ernment to protect the settlers.
Senate Rejects Them.
Some of the claims have been
passed upon by the court of claims
favorably, but the senate rejected
them after a speech in their favor by
Judge Massey. The claims are:
John Altman, formerly of Virginia
City, now of California, $2,35S; John
NJ. Forsyth, formerly of Carson City,
now of California, $2,72s; Frank J..
McWorthy, formerly Of Nevada, now
of California, $3.50; Thomas Rodgers,
formerly of Virginia City, now of
California, $40; legal representatives
of James M. Thompson, deceased, late
of Carson City, $3.50.
